About: Cats😺 I have been a proud cat mom for the past year and I adore my cat, Muffin. Before getting her, I spent a lot of time researching cat care to ensure that I could give her the best possible life. Since then I have continued learning and building my knowledge every day. I am particularly experienced with kittens and Ragdolls. I understand their personalities, needs, and how important routine, gentle handling, and attention are. Caring for my own cat has made me very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to feeding, hygiene, playtime, and wellbeing. Dogs 🐶 I have grown up as a dog owner and caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. I am experienced in daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, cuddles, and understanding each dog’s unique personality. I am very comfortable looking after dogs and I will go above and beyond to make pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have experience caring for both large and small breeds both younger and older. 💕 I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always follow each owner’s instructions closely and respect that every pet has their own routine, preferences and personality. I am more than happy to receive detailed instructions and I will never judge anyone for being particular about their pets care. As someone who is very specific about my own pets routine, I completely understand how important this is. I am happy to provide regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care, if preferred, so you can feel reassured and connected whilst you are away. I will treat your fur baby with the same level of care, patience, and affection as I do my own! I am a university student, however I have finished university until the next academic year, therefore I am very flexible with my availability to take excellent care of your pet! If there are any days you would like to book and it appears as unavailable on my schedule please feel free to message me and I will try to accommodate those dates for you :) Note: 3rd-14th August I will be unavailable during weekdays. I will still be available on weekends during this time. Thank You :) I am not currently offering services in my own home, however I will implement safety measures when taking care of your pet in your home. As an indoor-cat owner, I appreciate the importance of keeping indoor pets safe. I will always follow your instructions carefully when caring for your pet, and no matter their routine, preferences or lifestyle, indoor or outdoor, I will respect this and follow this carefully. I would always appreciate clear instructions and any emergency contacts (such as a vet or family member) for peace of mind.
“Chloe did a fantastic job of looking after Gracie. She's my old lady and very shy, but Chloe took great care of her and sent daily updates and photos which were very reassuring. I would be happy to have Chloe looking after Gracie again.”
“Olivia was fantastic with our dog Layla. She came to meet Layla beforehand, which we really appreciated. She then looked after Layla in our home and was reliable throughout, with great communication. We would happily recommend Olivia and would definitely book her again.”
About: Hi there! We’re Sofia & Julia, a young couple living in Salford. We both have plenty of experience looking after dogs (including puppies), and we’ve loved every minute of it. We’re really patient and reliable and we really really love pets, so we will make sure we love and care for your little ones as if they were ours! 🐾 We have a pretty flexible work schedule, and we will ensure one of us is off work when we look after your pet. Our goal is for them to have our full attention when they’re with us! We are pretty flexible in terms of dropping off and picking up times, and we’re definitely open to host your pet overnight, and/or for a few days at a time. We can ensure they would never be left alone and we would dedicate them all of our time. We live in a flat, but we have a fenced car park which has some grass areas for short toilet breaks. There is also a large park two minutes down the road for their walks. We have a spare room where the animal could have their own space if needed, either loose or in its kennel.
About: I have grown up with a Weimaraner and recently had a Cockapoo which I’ve both helped train from young. I also walk and look after friends and families dogs while they’re away. I’m currently working Wednesday- Sundays (Sundays I finish at 10:30am). Meaning I have the majority of Sunday and all day Monday and Tuesday free. I start work at 5am and finish at 2pm on average. I am more than happy to have your dog stay with me on my days at work, if they’re okay with staying inside for a few hours (my flatmate can take them out in the morning before she leaves for work at 9am). My apartment block is very dog friendly and there’s also some lovely walks that I do a lot around the area. Both myself and my flatmate love and have cared for dogs in the past. So between us your pet will get lots of love and attention.
About: Always been surrounded by pets growing up. Cats, dogs, rabbits name it. I decided to start pet sitting because I love it so much and I like the company! I work from home and have a little sausage dog called Sherlock. I’ve hosted a variety of dogs including elderly ones requiring nappies and assistance. I work as a self employed filmmaker and photographer, meaning during the week I work mostly at home if I’m not out on a shoot. Sherlock is always at the forefront of the hours I work making sure he gets everything he would need around my schedule as would your pup! I have an enclosed garden and a divide between the kitchen and living area giving the pups a safe space. I allow all the pets on furniture so they can make themselves right at home!
“Amanda looked after my cats for a week and visited them three times a day. She was great with them and spent time playing with them and caring for them as well as feeding, litter tray cleaning and refilling water bowls. I got regular updates, photos and videos and would absolutely recommend her. ”
About: I grew up on a farm where my parents were dog breeders, so caring for animals—puppies, seniors, and everything in between—has been part of my daily life since I was a kid. I’m comfortable with all breeds, energy levels, and special needs, whether it’s administering meds, handling training basics, or giving extra love to older pups. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every pet like family! I work from home so I could take care of your pet during my hours. I am doing 10k steps daily so I would love to walk with your buddy to entertain each other hah. I do not have a dog, I was just a student who finished University last year so I surely would need your leash and all equipments required.
“I booked daily drops ins for my cat George while I was on holiday. Andrea visited has per arrangement each day and followed the routine that George is used too. She kept me up to date with messages and photos. It was evident on my return home that George had been well taken care off. I would definitely rebook and highly recommend.”
“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.”
“Thank you so much Audrey for taking care of Dexter for me and my family while we were away. To know that Dexter was so well cared for, being able to see your lovely photos of him playing, your detailed and timely reports, and your overall style of care, meant we never had to worry about our family pet. Thank you so much.”
“Our first experience with a cat sitter whilst we were on a trip in Europe and it was amazing. Pui Yan (Iris) is very thoughtful and methodical. We have two cats, one is an introvert that hides from everyone, but Pui Yan made sure she eats wet food and always searched for her when she was hiding. We had constant updates and photos throughout the whole process. Thank you for taking care of our babies and we wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for a cat sitter.”
About: Full time dog sitter. I’ve been taking care of animals from a young age and I’m very passionate about them, I took to volunteering at a dog hotel because I wanted to be in that environment and learn to care for them, and have been caring for peoples pets for a long time !

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: I’m currently studying animal management in college therefore I have a deep understanding on animal husbandry and animals behaviours.Also during my college, I have done 200+hours at an animal shelter and dealing with different animals in college zoo park.

Really fantastic - on top of being so sweet, GG really went above and beyond to take care of my kitties. I got tons of pictures and videos every day, plus full reports on everything going on: from the state of the litter to the cats' moods to any instances of vomits or other causes for concern. She was even willing to stop by for one extra visit when my plane was delayed 5 hours, so the kitties wouldn't go unfed. 5 stars, would give more if I could - will definitely book again next time I go on holiday. Thank you for taking such good care of the babies!
Excellent service from Imagine. Very happy with her service, my cat is a timid cat and thought he would be more happy at home and this was the first time I have used this app. I was happy with how everything went and got regular updates and pics daily which defo made me more comfortable. Thank you Imagine 😊
Michelle did a great job looking after Mia while I was away. She was reliable, caring and kept me updated, which gave me peace of mind. Mia was happy and relaxed when I got home, so I couldn’t ask for more. I’d definitely recommend Michelle and would book her again!
Pui Yan was very thorough, thoughtful and sent lots of feedback & photos/videos of Tilly when we were away. She even wated the plants which which was very kind. I would definitely ask Pui Yan again to look after Tilly - we came home to a very happy cat - she was in safe hands.
I booked daily drops ins for my cat George while I was on holiday. Andrea visited has per arrangement each day and followed the routine that George is used too. She kept me up to date with messages and photos. It was evident on my return home that George had been well taken care off. I would definitely rebook and highly recommend.
Rachel took excellent care of our elderly indoor cat Geoffrey. He was in great hands with her looking after him and she sent us regular updates with photos and videos. She was also kind enough to water our plants and put our bin out. We highly recommend Rachel as a pet sitter.
Laura was absolutely wonderful with our two cats. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was really lovely with our boys and clearly cared about making sure they were happy and well looked after. Laura followed all of our instructions to the letter, including administering medicine to one of our boys, which we really appreciated. It was reassuring to know they were in such capable and caring hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Laura and would happily have her look after our cats again. Thank you, Laura, for taking such great care of our boys!
Roslyn took wonderful care of our cats and kittens while we were away! She communicated clearly, kept us updated, and made sure all the pets were safe, happy, and well looked after. Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone reliable and truly loving towards animals. Thank you so much, Roslyn!

There are 1,848 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Salford. About 92% of Salford sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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. 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.
