“Adrienne has looked after our rescue staffie Daisy at our house a couple of times now and we would definitely recommend her. Communication has been consistently quick and easy and Adrienne is friendly and professional 🙂! Daisy is dog reactive and quite strong on the lead and Adrienne was confident managing this, she listened well to our advice regarding strategies to manage her reactivity and asked sensible questions. Daisy is definitely a fan of Adrienne and we have booked multiple other dates for sitting 🐕”

“Hannah was so lovely. Kept in contact during the dog sitting stay, including photos. My dog can be very anxious when left, however my dog was happy throughout the whole stay and enjoyed all the fuss and attention that was given to her. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with Hannah. Would definitely recommend and would use again if I was to go away! Thank you so much Hannah.”


About: I've grown up around dogs all my life and they've always been part of my family. While I haven't owned a dog myself as an adult, I regularly care for my sister's dog, both in her home and in my own flat, so I'm comfortable with day-to-day routines, walks, feeding, playtime and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for pets. This means I can accommodate daytime walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules and toilet breaks, rather than being limited to mornings and evenings. For dogs boarding with me, they will have company for most of the day and won't be left alone for long periods. I can provide regular walks, playtime and attention alongside maintaining their usual routine. I'm also available for house sitting and can work remotely from your home, allowing me to spend more time with your pet and minimize disruption to their normal environment and schedule. Your pet's safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a first-floor flat in a quiet area and take care to provide a calm and safe environment for any dog in my care. Although I do not have a garden, I live next to a canal, with plenty of nearby green space and walking routes, making it easy to provide regular exercise, enrichment and outdoor time throughout the day. As I work remotely, I am able to keep a close eye on pets in my care and ensure they receive plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I will always follow your instructions carefully to help them feel settled, happy and secure while you're away. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind that your pet is being well looked after.
About: I’ve taken care of a range of different dog breeds ranging from large to small. Some of these dogs have been nervous or reactive to other dogs as well as some with people. :) I am currently completing a PhD focusing on cancer research so I am fairly flexible during the week and available the majority of weekends. I would love to meet your doggies 😊 I have a 6 foot fenced garden all the way around expect for the neighbours which is about 3/4 foot. The garden is fairly big with space to play fetch.
“It was a pleasure to have Cara looking after Zeeno and Loki! They were very happy when we got home and communication with Care was easy . Thanks Cara for your help and we would love to use you again if needed!”

“I had to use this app to each out last minute to find a sitter, due to a cancellation, and I couldn’t be more happy. Andreia was great with my dogs, especially consider one of them is a bit of a nervous wreck. Have booked more dates with Andreia and using her as my new sitter. Highly recommend.”

“Negin was wonderful looking after Luna. Very kind, helpful and sent regular picture and general updates from home. When I returned, Luna was so happy and I can’t thank Negin enough for making leaving her, so easy and stress free. It’s so lovely to be able to trust someone new with your animal from the outset and Negin made that process so easy and comfortable. Thank you so much Negin. I will without a doubt be asking you to look after Luna for me again ☺️”

With hands-on experience in both puppy training and senior care, I’m able to provide: Puppy support: basic training, leash manners, and positive reinforcement. Senior care: gentle walks, medication reminders, and comfort for aging pets. Personalized activity: matching your pet’s energy level with playtime, exercise, or calm companionship. Consistent communication: daily updates with photos/videos for your peace of mind. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to accommodate daily or weekly pet care at times that suit your pet’s routine. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week, as well as weekends. Whether it’s structured puppy training sessions, regular walks, or consistent feeding times, I’ll ensure your pet’s schedule stays balanced and stress-free. 🐾 Caring for Pets in My Home When pets stay with me, they’re treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of playtime, walks (for dogs), and cuddles. I make sure feeding, bathroom breaks, and exercise all follow their normal routine, so they feel comfortable and at ease. I also keep spaces clean and pet-friendly, with lots of love and attention. 🐾 Caring for Pets in an Owner’s Home In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s daily routine exactly as you set it. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning (for cats), walks (for dogs), and any special instructions such as medications or training reinforcement. I make sure your pet feels secure in their own environment while also keeping your home tidy and cared for during my visits.
“Nicola was amazing. I instantly saw she had a true love and understanding of dogs, and Brian took to her immediately, wanting to kiss at her face and have cuddles. He's a snuggle boi, and she welcomed this immediately. Our meet and greet went smoothly, all relevant questions answered about his care and needs, and so I knew he was in good hands on my wedding day. No stress. I received pictures, a message regarding travel and then a leaving message at the end. I found her professional, level-headed and warm hearted, putting me at ease and being a delight. Brian was very happy when we came home, not anxious in the least, and I knew he'd been loved on all day.”


About: I’ve always had pets growing up, both cats and dogs and have had a hand in training them all. I’ve also worked as a dog walker before and love looking after pets with all different energy levels and needs. I’m a full-time university student so the periods I will be pet sitting during (holiday periods and summer), I’ll be able to fit pet care in whenever needed 7 days a week. I can follow any routine you’d like me to with your pet, having a lot of experience with different pets and their unique personalities I can adapt easily to whatever individual care and fuss they need.
“Sarah did a great job dog sitting Clover and Neville whilst we were away for the day, she sent updates and photos and both pets were happy with her, even shy Neville came out to say hello. Puppies can be a bit of a pain but she managed Clover well (sorry about her stealing everything!). Thank you :)”

“Freddy has been a life-saver. I have needed to leave Irma with him to attend interviews and house-viewings and he has been amazing with her. Very trustworthy and Irma is always happy and well-taken care of.”


About: Professional dog walker now for the past 3 years. Dog mummy for 20 years. With a great love for outdoors. I intend to breach out and become a dog behaviourist in the near future. I’m offering dog walking/ sitting/ boarding and daycare. Any questions feel free to contact me :) I’m currently working as a professional dog walker so your pet will fit right in here, if your dog doesn’t like these activities thats fine as I can offer alternatives. I have a fenced garden which your fur baby has full range of. I do professional dog walking also so if your dog is happy with other dogs they will come with us if not that’s fine I also do country park walks. I love local to Colwick woods also Gedling county park so we will go and explore that together.

About: I grew up in a 'dog family,' having always been surrounded by family and friends' pets. My background is deeply rooted in animal welfare; my family and I regularly rescue and foster dogs in need. This hands-on experience has made me naturally adept at caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Whether it is a high-energy puppy, a senior dog needing gentle care, or a rescue dog that requires extra patience to build trust, I am comfortable adapting to their specific needs. I pride myself on building a natural bond with every dog I meet, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-exercised while their owners are away. I mostly work from home, which allows me to be very flexible with my time and provide plenty of companionship for your dog. My typical routine includes a long morning walk before I start work, with additional walks in the late afternoon or evening depending on your dog's specific energy levels and needs. I am also fully available for boarding from Friday through to the end of the weekend. have a secure, fully fenced garden where dogs can play safely outdoors under supervision. Inside, I provide a calm and spacious indoor environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. Whether they prefer a quiet corner for a nap or plenty of space to stretch out, I ensure they have a dedicated area that meets their needs.
“On returning home after my trip, I came back to a very happy, healthy, well fed Mopsy. As usual Yeru has done a fine job. I feel she may have struggled a little with uni work, and looking after Mopsy, but that is my fault really, as I have her virtually no notice. I think it may have only been four days, but if she hadn’t stepped up, I would have had to cancel my trip, as there’s no one else, I’d be happy to trust with my dog. I’d throughly recommend Yeru, and hope she is available in the summer, when I go on holiday again. 🤞”

“We're so grateful to Alice and Tommy for the lovely care and attention they gave to our little Patty. They gave him lots of exercise and opportunities too explore and sniff. Also ensured they made time to rest before ball games in the garden. They took really good care of our house and left everywhere clean and tidy. We felt they were genuine, trustworthy and very kind young people who we'd have no hesitation is asking again .We received photo's and video's which was very reassuring, we felt our little Patty was in safe hands as well as having kisses and cuddles. We would highly recommend Alice and Tommy to care for your pets.”

Andreia has just spent 2 days house sitting for my elderly cat she was constantly sending me up dates and pictures to reassure me and promptly messaged me back when I sent her a text message , Andreia was very helpful in bringing in my parcels and left our house clean and she was respectful I’m very pleased with the care she gave to my cat and will contact Andreia again if I need her to look after my pets , the only improvement I would suggest is that I booked a start time for 10 .30 am and the night before I was in a bit of a panic as Andreia changed the time and we were due to go on holiday however Andreia did arrive at the changed time very promptly and was excellent all throughout her looking after my cat Thankyou Andreia. Very happy 😊😀

I am so glad Olaya agreed to take care of my cat Mimi for 4 days. Olaya is excellent with cats, and has really good and calm energy - Mimi opened up to her in minutes. Olaya took the time to engage with Mimi with toys and ensured no disruption to her routine. Olaya is also highly responsible, and she paid a lot of attention to detail, and I felt extremely assured about leaving Mimi in her care. All the information regarding Mimi’s routines as well as the apartment were handled with care and honesty which I really appreciate. Communication was excellent where I received many updates on Mimi. Olaya left my apartment extremely tidy! I am really thankful to Olaya and I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking for an extremely responsible and caring sitter.

If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would! Jessie was so professional, went well above and beyond what I would have hoped for, and took such good care of my animals and my house. I feel really lucky I was able to find her on this app. Thank you so much, Jessie! 10/10 would absolutely book again!

Hanna was a wonderful sitter for a whole week and looked after our very shy and nervous greyhound, Genie. She was very patient and managed to win his trust over time. Very good at keeping us informed on daily events and pictures of stand out moments. Hanna left the house immaculately clean. Highly recommended as a dog sitter.

We booked another weekend with Shanaya after her first time looking after Merlin went so well - again, absolutely no faults, she was the perfect carer and companion for our little pup. He absolutely adores her! We are very much hoping to use Shanayas services again in the future ☺️☺️

Abby is a sweet young lady! she arrive early so we could provide instructions & care for our girls. Our two small dogs took to her immediately as she meet them with attention & love. We were visiting Nottingham and wanted time to visit the town without the girls. Abby provided love & care! I would highly recommend Abby to care for your animals. 💕

My dog, Blossom, had a wonderful time with Dori! Dori came over for a meet and greet ahead of the booking and was absolutely lovely. For the 2 days that Dori stayed with Blossom, I received regular updates, photos, videos, and my house was left in a perfect condition. Highly recommend booking with Dori!

Natasha sat for Dexter staying in our house for 1week. Natasha was very attentive giving Dexter lots of attention and plenty of walks and fun activities. Natasha kept us updated sending pictures and messages throughout the week. We returned to a happy Dexter and a very clean and tidy house. Thanks Natasha for a great sit. Would highly recommend Natasha
Eleanor was absolutely brilliant with our cat and adolescent dog. We were away for a long trip and we're a bit worried to leave him as he can be a handful!! We had nothing to worry about, she took incredible care of him, updated with photos regularly and managed to keep our big boy entertained and out of trouble (which is a feat in itself!!). Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Eleanor, she has been wonderful da:D

If you’re considering booking Ailish to look after your pets then do it! I hate leaving Ernie but she completely put me at ease. So thoughtful and kind and looked after him perfectly. Nothing was too much trouble and Ernie loved her. I was kept updated every day and multiple times. She also looked after my tortoise, fish and fox all along with keeping my house neat and tidy. I wouldn’t ask anyone else now.

Blake sat in for our whippet pup for an evening and he has loved his time with her! She dropped us a couple of messages during the evening that was reassuring as this was the first time we had left him. He was really happy when we arrived home having cuddles on the sofa and seemed really happy.

Leah has been absolutely amazing, she really helped us out with a last minute booking after someone else cancelled. Leah is super friendly and provided detailed daily updates throughout the week with photos and videos. One of my girls are very nervous, has dietary requirements and needs eyedrops and Leah handled all of this with no issues. It was very clear to see in the photos and videos that both girls absolutely adored her and were quickly very comfortable. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you so much 🥰

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Rushcliffe walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Rushcliffe choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
