“I can’t speak highly enough of Louise. My dog is my world and he requires medication on a regular basis. I immediately felt at ease with Louise and knew I could trust her with my boy. She has hit the perfect balance of warm and friendly with professionalism. Can’t wait to book another visit.”

About: I've cared for a variety of pets throughout my life, from dogs and cats to horses and livestock! My aim is for all pets to feel as loved as possible. I work part time from home, as well as helping on the family farm. I have lots of availability for dog walking and pet sitting. Currently only offering house sitting and dog walks while work is being done on my house. However, current clients will have priority for when pet sitting in my own home becomes available. I have a gentle but playful border collie who can join playful pups for walks, or single household walks are available too!

“Jessie settled well with Jessica and the two of them seemed to have a great time. We came home to a very happy dog - she obviously hadn't missed us very much. Jessica was brilliant - the house was spotless. As if no-one had been here. We would definitely use Jessica and Rover again. Thank you”

“We were so thrilled to welcome Ella into our home to look after our cockapoo Phoebe for a weekend. She took Phoebe for walks and snuggled on the sofa and in bed - just what Phoebe loves! We came home to an immaculate house and wouldn't hesitate to book Ella again.”

“Thanks to Nick for doing a super job looking after our dog and cats. Had to ask Nick at the last moment to change the timings and he was happy to accommodate. Really happy with everything and would definitely recommend.”

About: I grew up looking after fantail doves, and since becoming a business owner and digital nomad in 2024, I've loved petsitting for many animals across the world. From dogs to cats to goats to goldfish, I've loved learning who they are, supporting them in their homes and having a fun & rewarding time with them in the process! I have experience with animals of all ages including week old puppies, senior dogs and cats. I work remotely in my own business, which allows me to live flexibly and support your pets with the routine and life they're used to whilst you're away. I enjoy settling into homes, caring for pets as part of my daily rhythm, and experiencing new people and places. * I'm DBS checked and insured I've loved petsitting for many animals in their homes across the world. I've loved learning who they are, supporting them in their homes and having a fun & rewarding time with them in the process! I have no problem giving them the care the need including routine, medication, love and play. I'm also quite a greenthumb and had plenty of plants and grew food on my balcony before becoming a digital nomad full time. I'm also used to dealing with any house issues that arise!
“Julie was amazing, she was so good with Alfie taking him on long walks and sending us updates while we were away. Alfie takes a while to warm up to people but he was so comfortable around her. We definitely would recommend, she was great and such a lovely person 😊”

“Emma was so attentive to Vinny’s needs and I had no concerns about leaving them to take care of Vinny and his complex needs. I received updates including photos during their stay and it was a pleasure to host them in order to look after my boy and they are already booked in for another stay. Highly recommend 🤩⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩”

About: My husband and I have had pets our entire life, so caring for animals truly comes naturally to us. Although we sadly no longer have our own dog, our love for animals hasn’t changed – and we now have a warm, welcoming home ready to help other families by caring for their dogs and cats when they need it most. I work from home so no pets will be left on their own. Your pet will be part of our routine at all times unless otherwise specified by you as an owner. Our home is very much a home-from-home environment, where pets are treated as part of the family. We have a gentle and animal-loving 2-year-old who absolutely adores pets and has grown up around them, so kindness and respect for animals is something we value deeply in our household. We also have plenty of pets within our wider family, so animals are always part of our lives.
About: Hello! Dogs have been a huge part of my life for 6 years, ever since I have owned my boy, Buster. Whether your dog loves long, energetic walks or just wants to snuggle on the couch, I can tailor my care to their exact needs. I am reliable, communicative, and ready to give your dog a safe, fun stay or walk. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, running, and I work as a dental therapist and am also studying alongside at university to become a dentist! I am currently studying dentistry at university and have differing timetables most weeks, so I am available on my days off from uni as well as during holidays inbetween term time to look after or walk your pets! I will be available most hours to ensure they need everything they require. I love all animas as if they are my own. I have a courtyard while at university and while at my home I have a big garden for your pets to enjoy. I will be able to feed them whenever and they will always have fresh water available. Let me know anything your pet will require and I will do my best to ensure they get just that!

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 Ryedale 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 Ryedale 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.
