We had a wonderful experience with PUI YAN (IRIS) looking after our two cats, Chelsea and Felix. She took great care of them while we were away, making sure they were well fed, comfortable, and given plenty of attention. She kept us updated with messages, lots of videos and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about our cats and respected their different personalities. We came home to two happy, relaxed cats, and everything was just as we left it. We would happily recommend PUI YAN Y to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Chelsea and Felix!

About: I’ve been pet sitting my entire adult life. I’ve taken care of puppies to senior dogs and highly anxious cats for friends and family. Nothing is more rewarding to me than gaining the full trust of a pet and feeling the honour of being their chosen safe space. Experience in house sitting, as well as walking dogs or even just popping in for a play. I’m currently working part time on a contract of 17 hours a week so can do pet care on my days off or before or after a shift. I pick up overtime shifts occasionally but can work these around pet care hours if needed. My contracted working hours I am unavailable for are Weds 2-7, Thursday 6-10pm, Friday 6-10pm and Sunday 8-12pm, but every other time of the week I can usually do. I won’t be able to care for pets in my own home sadly as I have cats that won’t take too kindly to house guests. However, I am more than happy to pet sit in your home and will treat both your pet and home like they are my own. If you are going away for a while I would give you daily updates on your beloved pets.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter based in Manchester. I grew up around both cats and dogs, including a gorgeous German Shepherd, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life 💕 I have experience looking after kittens from birth and am confident caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I’m comfortable with dog walking, feeding, administering basic care, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I often volunteer to cat and dog sit for friends and family, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs plenty of exercise, cuddles, or just a calm and caring companion, you can count on me to provide attentive and trustworthy care. LGBTQIA friendly 🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ ✨ I work full-time, but I’m available most evenings and weekends for pet sitting and dog walks. With a bit of notice, I can work from home, which gives me extra flexibility for daytime visits, longer stays, or pets who enjoy a bit more company. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine wherever possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or yours, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll stick to their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of fuss (if they enjoy it!). I’m experienced with both cats and dogs, understand that every pet has a different personality, and I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you know they’re happy and well looked after while you’re away.

About: Experience of fostering a Chow Chow of old age for two years before he sadly passed away. Mum Anita lives with us and has experience housesitting 4 different dogs for over two weeks each time. Partner Angie is a dog enthusiast, and had adopted and cared for two dogs in the past. I work hybrid while my partner works fully remote, meaning that we offer lots of flexibility. We are happy to help out throughout the week. I have a fenced backyard and a reception for your pets to stretch their legs. Not having any pets at the moment so worries about conflicts.

Sofie has started drop ins with my rescue dog Rita, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Rita has always been super anxious with people coming in the house, but she already loves Sofie after a couple of visits. That's testament to Sofie's patience and how much she cares about dogs.

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs all my life. I used to own both at the same time even. It has been a while since I've had a feline as company, I do believe they are better than dogs haha (no offense towards doggies). I'm sure that me and your best friend will spend an amazing time together and I'll do my best for them to have the calmest stay. I'm currently working hybrid, so I'll have to be in the office on Tuesdays on Wednesdays. Other than that, I'm always at home I will always make sure to feed your best friend on time, have some play time together with hidden treats and toys and respect their restful moments.

About: Since 2018 myself and my family opened our home to dog sitting. I have done long and short stays including just for the day as well as dog walking too. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule, which allows me to balance time between home and the office. On days I work from home, I’m available for pet care throughout the day, including walks, feeding, and companionship. My schedule also allows me to plan ahead, so I can commit to regular visits or stays and ensure pets get consistent, reliable care during the week and on weekends. I provide care in the pet owner’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, walk schedules, and any specific care needs. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, and a calm, safe atmosphere while maintaining the home respectfully. I’m also attentive to any changes in behaviour or health and will keep owners updated regularly for peace of mind. I also have experience handling a variety of dogs on the lead and am confident managing different behaviours during walks. I understand how to approach situations where a dog may feel nervous or unsure, and I always prioritise their comfort and safety while helping them feel at ease.

About: As a dedicated animal lover and cat parent of 10 years, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets while you’re away. I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages, from kittens to senior cats, and I am comfortable working with a range of personalities, from confident and social cats to those who are more shy or anxious. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing enrichment, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I have also cared for my family-in-law’s dogs and am comfortable providing companionship, feeding, walks, and general care. Animal welfare is very important to me and I am committed to ensuring every pet in my care is happy, healthy, and well looked after. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and respect, and I aim to give parents peace of mind while they are away. My main availability is on weekends, when I am free throughout the day on both Saturdays and Sundays. I also have every other Friday off and may be available for pet care on those days. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your needs, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I understand that every animal has different needs, so I take the time to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, fresh water, medication, playtime, exercise, and general care. For cats, I can provide feeding, litter tray cleaning, companionship, play sessions, and general care as requested. For dogs, I can provide feeding, companionship, walks, and general care as requested. During every visit, I pay close attention to the pet’s wellbeing and behaviour and will keep parents updated for peace of mind while they are away. As I have cats of my own, I currently focus on providing care in their home rather than boarding pets in my own home.

About: Hi there, I'm Holly! I've always loved being around animals, with my own little purrball, Eugene, being my pride and joy. Because I'm a pet owner myself, I know firsthand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy and well cared for while you're away or busy. Whether it's sticking to their usual routine, going for walks, playing their favourite games or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, loved and right at home. My experience with animals began around six years ago when I cared for a family member's cat, Dexter, while they were unable to look after him. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and sparked a real passion for caring for animals. Dexter quickly became the centre of my world, and I was responsible for keeping on top of his medication and making sure all of his needs were met. When it was time for Dexter to go home, I realised just how much animals bring to a home, so I welcomed Eugene into my life. Since then, I've continued to care for a variety of animals, including dogs, rabbits and, of course, plenty more cats. One of my most memorable experiences was caring for a pregnant cat throughout her entire pregnancy and helping to look after her four beautiful kittens until they found loving homes in pairs with people I knew. I also still regularly look after Dexter, so he's remained a special part of my life. These experiences have taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine and needs. I'm confident caring for pets with different temperaments and understand the importance of patience, consistency and making them feel secure. I'm reliable, kind and will always treat your pet as if they were my own, because I know just how much they mean to their family. I'll happily send regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing they're in safe hands. Every pet is different, and I'm always happy to follow your instructions to make sure they receive the care they're used to and deserve. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life thanks to my own cat, Eugene, and I genuinely enjoy making time for animals. Alongside my full-time job, I'm available for drop-in visits, dog walks and daytime house sitting, with plenty of flexibility before and after work, during evenings and at weekends. I'm organised and reliable, so I always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise and care they need. Whether it's a lunchtime walk, keeping a cat company while you're away or spending time with your pet in their own familiar environment, I'm happy to work around their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and settled. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I always prioritise safety, routine and making sure the pet feels as comfortable as possible in their familiar environment. I follow any instructions provided closely, including feeding schedules, medication, walking routines and any house rules, to ensure consistency for the pet. I take time to understand each pet’s individual needs and personality so I can care for them in a way that keeps them calm, happy and secure. For dog walks, I always ensure pets are safely secured before and during walks, and I choose appropriate routes based on their energy levels and any guidance from the owner. I avoid unsafe situations and always keep dogs on lead unless I have been specifically instructed otherwise and it is safe to do so. When visiting a home, I treat it with respect and care, making sure everything is left clean, secure and as I found it. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pet is safe and well looked after while they are away.

We were looking for someone to pop in and spend some time with our cat Pancetta as we were going away for a long weekend. Having never left her by herself overnight we were a bit nervous, but Mollie was fab. She came to visit the week before we went away and Pancetta took to her immediately! We got lots of pictures while we were gone and knew she was being well cared for and enjoying a good fuss. Mollie herself was super friendly and we'd be more than happy to book her again in the future!

About: My family has always had dogs and I loved growing up with a dog in the home. My husband and I now have a crazy cocker spaniel called Lola. We would all love to welcome more dogs into our home. We only accept crate trained dogs due to us having a house cat. Dogs will need to sleep in a crate overnight but otherwise will be able to freely go around the house and outside. Both my husband and I work from home with flexible working hours. We walk our spaniel a couple of times a day. Dogs would always have access to the garden. Our garden is enclosed and our dog Lola is very friendly and welcoming. Lola is crate trained and we have space for an additional crate.

About: Always been around with dogs and have taken care of different breeds. Have experience giving oral medication and lots of baths! Enjoy going on walks and always keeping them happy, playful and clean to end their days in a good mood. Moved from the Dominican Republic to purse my dream of becoming a psychologist, just finished college and I’m currently working part time as a Community Support Worker so I’m able to offer lots of flexibility and follow my clients needs and wants. Unfortunately, I had to leave my furry friend back home and taking care of yours will fulfill that lost while keeping them joyful and safe! I used to have a cat while living in my home country for +3 and I’ve always been surrounded by dogs throughout my life. I’m an animal person who loves keeping them playful, clean and safe at all times. I will update you whenever you need reassurance that your furry friend is safe and well fed.

About: I grew up with a house full of pets so when I moved out I felt the need to have animals in my life, and ended up turning it into a business! I’ve been looking after dogs and cats more professionally since august 2021 (with breaks in between), including walks and dog sitting at both my own and the owners homes. I’ve cared for many animals ranging from bengal kittens to big greyhounds! I love all animals and will for certain love yours too! I work in a education so am available early morning and evenings for drop ins and walks, as well as weekends and during half term for longer visits. when staying in pet owners homes i like to follow guidance from the owners themselves about how they like things to be done. i also like to leave the home tidier than how i found it.

Phoebe was fantastic from start to finish. She clearly took the time to build trust with Rufus and made a real effort to ensure he felt safe and comfortable around her. It was lovely to see the progress he made during her visits, and it gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Communication was excellent throughout, and she was reliable, thoughtful, and treated Rufus as if he were her own. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Phoebe again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter.

Chloe was absolutely fantastic looking after our two cats. Her communication was brilliant throughout, with regular updates that really put us at ease. Even though our cats have slightly odd routines and instructions because they’re older, she followed everything perfectly. She was so gentle, kind, and patient with them, and it was clear how comfortable they felt in her care. We’d highly recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring cat sitter.

First time ever using Rover for an our holiday and certainly will not be our last. We were obviously a bit anxious with it being the first time but we’re now unable to rely on a family member as they work away a lot and it’s too much to ask as a favour from friends. We booked Christy to do daily drop ins and we have been blown away by how amazing she has been. Firstly I was worried how our 14 year old highly strung and very territorial cat would react but i am simply blown away by how she has reacted to Christy. We received videos and photos and cute little messages every single day, clearly showing that Tinkerbell was having a great time being pampered and brushed every day. Normally when we are away Tinks will eat a bit less and especially in the hot weather we’ve had at home but it just shows how relaxed she has felt as she’s eaten more than normal and emptied her bowls every day! Christy is such a lovely respectful person and clearly loves cats (and they clearly love her too) I will 100% continue to use Rover and I am crossing my fingers that Christy will be available for all our holidays going forward, Tinks misses her already ❤️ Thank you so much Christy ☺️

Christine did an amazing job with our cat Zest, she was communicative, proactive, and took lots of cute videos and photos whilst cat sitting for 7 days, we felt like Zest had a third parent whilst we were away and would 1000% get Christine to cat sit for us again. Zest can be quite shy and often hides from people so we were worried that Christine might not be able to spend real time with him. Thankfully, Christine's patience and attentiveness shone through, as she was able to win Zest over and take extremely good care of him. We'd definitely recommend Christine for pet sitting in general, she's a safe pair of hands who will love your pet as much as you do. Thanks so much for taking care of Zest once again!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 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 .

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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
