“Another wonderful visit from Rebecca! I greatly appreciate her prompt replies (mostly about refilling water dishes and/or my remote feeder) as it always puts me at ease knowing she’ll take great care of my cats while I’m away. I love that she’s gotten to know both of my cats personalities and that they’re so comfortable being around her!”
About: Experienced, calm, and dependable pet sitter based in West Bridgford. With over a decade of hands-on experience handling dogs across all life stages—from high-drive adolescents to gentle seniors—I focus on maintaining your dog’s familiar daily routine with zero fuss. I take an observant, grounded approach to animal care, ensuring your home stays immaculate, your dog remains settled, and communication is consistent throughout. Experience & Care - 10+ Years of Hands-on Handling: Comfortable with a variety of temperaments, breed drives, and energy levels. - House Sitting: Attentive overnight care in your home. Dogs are kept to their established feeding, exercise, and rest schedules while you are away. - Routine & Safety Focused: Respectful of home boundaries, safety conscious on walks, and attentive to subtle behavioural cues. Dogs in my care should be comfortable being left alone for standard intervals (2–4 hours) during normal daily commitments. I work remotely with full schedule flexibility, allowing me to base my working day from your home and provide steady, unobtrusive companionship for your dog. I will make sure to fully understand your dog’s exact daily routine—including their precise feeding times, favourite walking routes, sleeping habits, and any specific quirks.
About: I started walking my friend’s dog when I was small, which gave me experience in taking care of a dog and ensuring it has a good walking experience. I’m currently a full-time sociology student studying in university but my course workload isn’t heavy, so I have plenty of time for dog care jobs. For bordering service, I have a large grassy garden that provides a comfortable and safe space for dogs to run around. There are also plenty of green areas near my home, which are great for walking dogs.
About: Hello! I am a passionate animal lover, recently finished a 4 year Zoology degree, also with a Level 3 diploma in Animal management, so I will ensure to apply academic and practical knowledge to caring for your pets. I have worked at an animal rescue, caring for a wide range of different dog breeds (large and small), cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and a pig! I will meet the needs of both you and your pets, and be sure to keep in as much contact as wished by owner. Also working as a dog sitter/walker for a private owner, since 2019, which gave me many practical skills I can apply to other dog sittings. Please get in touch, I look forward to meeting you and your lovely companions! As I have recently finished university I am currently unemployed so would love to get as many pet sits into my weekly schedule. My calendar is kept strictly up-to-date, I am flexible and can easily accommodate walks any time, drop-ins, and dedicated overnight/day housesits. I will ensure your house is kept perfectly tidy and update you on details of the day. I am very reliable and respectful. I will always keep good hygiene standards around your pets, while keeping a close eye on them guaranteeing their safety and giving them plenty of love!
About: I’ve grown up with a wide variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, chickens, fish etc. and enjoy spending time with all animals. We currently have a cat called Murphy who is very independent and enjoys lots of time outdoors. We offer a loving home with plenty of social interaction for your dog. Care will be tailored to your individual pet and their specific needs and routines. (Licenced by Rushcliffe Borough Council for Home Boarding of Dogs AWL-0090) I’m a mum of 3 who is currently on maternity leave so I’m available pretty much every day. I enjoy walking and getting out in the fresh air so your dog will get plenty of exercise. I have a secure fenced off garden for lots of time outdoors. There are also plenty of parks nearby as well as our allotment. Happy for your pet to be part of our family during their stay with plenty of time for love, attention and play.
About: I've grown up with dogs all my life, I've never had a year go by without them! I've had experience with elderly dogs I've volunteered walking rescue dogs for 3+ years, and helped out with walking and watching elderly people's dogs and house sat with cats. I've just recently graduated from university and am currently looking for a work-from-home job in the comics industry, I am fully at home and present and will be able to give your beloved family members the attention they deserve! I have a fenced garden and no pets living here, although there is a dog in the family who visits, upon request. I can separate your pets if they need space as our house is nice and big, there's plenty of room for them to stretch their legs, and a park in close proximity.
“Rachel was absolutely wonderful with our Fifi while we were away on holiday. Her regular visits really eased everything for my parents, who were taking care of the house. As always, Rachel was dependable, on time, and caring towards Fifi. We appreciated the updates and felt completely at ease knowing Fifi was in such loving hands.”
“Job has been amazing with my 11 week old pup - she’s always on time for her visits in the week, keeps me updated throughout with photos and videos and keeps my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Jo to anyone!”
About: As an avid dog loved, and having had dogs all my life, I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry friends. I have extensive experience in caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. My approach to dog sitting is rooted in compassion and understanding, ensuring your pup feels safe, loved and engaged whilst you’re away. I currently work from home 5 days a week and love going on walks, so looking after your furry friends does not impact my routine. I have a fenced back garden, and no current dogs of my own so your dog will have my undivided attention and will be safe at all times.
About: I have experience with rescue dogs and building bonds and trust. I know the importance of understanding what your dog needs no matter the temperament. I enjoy training new tricks and taking them for adventures. I believe I can offer your dog fun and make their stays like a holiday I work from home most of the week. My mornings start by walking maple first thing in the morning, on my lunch break and after work. With plenty of playtime in between. I am very lucky to be living with a veterinary nurse who is always on hand to help where needed. I am very flexible to your dogs routine and will aim to mirror this. Maple is very adaptable and loves having other dogs as company. Most days I aim to take them out together. If your dog prefers walks alone then this is available
“Aitana was incredibly friendly, professional, and gave lovely updates and pictures when she attended a visit to feed our cat. She was also very flexible with us at quite short notice. I would 100% recommend to anybody - thank you so much for your help, Aitana! X”
“Sam was really helpful with a late notice booking and adaptable to last minute time changes. He was very calm with my nervous Italian greyhound and kept me updated with pictures - highly recommend!”
About: I have 14 years of experience caring for a Poodle, whom I raised from a puppy until he sadly passed away due to old age. I hope to extend the love I had for him to other dogs and cats. I have extensive experience in caring for young dogs, along with endless love and patience I work from home, which gives me great flexibility throughout the day, allowing me to provide high-standard boarding for dogs and cats in a comfortable home environment. When caring for pets, whether in my home or theirs, I focus on: Safety: I ensure the environment is secure and free from hazards, closely monitoring the pets to keep them safe. Trust: I build a bond with the pets by understanding their needs and preferences, and maintain clear communication with their owners. Environment: I provide a clean, comfortable space with access to play and rest, either by adapting my home or maintaining their familiar surroundings.
About: I have over 15 years of personal experience caring for cats, from growing up with my family’s 12-year-old senior cat to co-owning a cat for 4 years. I truly understand feline behavior, boundaries, and how to make them feel safe. I've even successfully trained cats to walk on a leash and play treat-guessing games! I am a regular, trusted cat sitter for my friends' pets, and I recently completed a wonderful month-long boarding stay for a cat at my place. I live on my own in a large, quiet house with a big garden, making it a peaceful, stress-free environment for your pets. I have a lot of love to give and plenty of free time right now to focus entirely on your furry friends, whether they stay at my home or I visit yours. While cats are my specialty, I am also very open to hosting or visiting calm, friendly dogs to expand my care experience! I work completely from home, which means my schedule is highly flexible and I am around all day. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods. My daily routine revolves around providing consistent companionship, sticking strictly to your feeding and medication schedules, and building in plenty of dedicated time for play, grooming, and mental stimulation (or leash walks if they are trained for it!). Because I have a lot of free time right now, your pet will truly be my top priority. In My Home: I live alone in a large, quiet house with a big, secure garden, offering a peaceful environment free from the stress of children or other resident pets. Before any stay, I meticulously pet-proof the space. Your pet will have full freedom to roam, explore, and find their favorite cozy spots. I am extremely mindful of open doors and windows to ensure absolute safety. In Your Home: I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure. During drop-in visits, I focus entirely on making your pet feel safe and loved while you are away. Communication: Trust is everything to me. I will send you daily updates, photos, and videos so you can see exactly how much fun and love your furry friend is getting!

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Rushcliffe
Amazing!! Leah and Cameron are just our go tos for looking after our kitties. I never worry about our cats as I know they’re in safe hands whilst I’m away. This is our second booking with Leah and we will definitely be back again for another. Thank you both so much for looking after Yoshi and Pichu and for going above and beyond for them. We’re so grateful we found you on here!
This is my second review for Judi and I have to say she really is a fantastic cat sitter. Her communication is excellent, I got lots of lovely updates and pictures. I can tell that she genuinely cares so I know my cats are in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thanks again Judi!
This was the second time Olaya took care of my cat Mimi. Olaya is so very conscientious, friendly, and just amazing with cats. Mimi trusts and opens up to Olaya easily. Olaya is also very gentle with cats and I’m very grateful that she is very diligent about things like locking doors and handling the keys. She also sent me any photos during the sit which I appreciated. I highly recommend Olaya.
Rebecca was amazing! Super punctual and professional and she got on very well with my cat. She took incredible photos of him including some hilarious action shots of him flying through the air! I will definitely book her again and recommend her animal whispering skills to anyone
Ada and her daughters did a wonderful job of looking after Daisy and Cleo while we were away. Ada's communication was great both at the booking stage and with daily updates during her visits. They put in a lot of effort and care, we would recommend their services and will be using them in the future.

Yes. There are up to 1,934 pet sitters offering care in and around Rushcliffe. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.
Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.
You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.
Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
