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.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care you gave our dogs. You were always punctual, friendly, and reliable. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved you and were always excited to see you. Thank you for taking such great care of them—we highly recommend you 💖💖🌹”
“Sofie is wonderful with my dog Suki, who can sometimes be a bit worried meeting new people and can be reactive to other dogs. Sofie really understands dogs and she's so calm and patient with them. I have full confidence leaving my dogs in her care.”
About: Hi, I'm Leah, and I'm a huge dog lover based in MediaCity, Salford! I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved their company. Growing up with two Jack Russell Terriers gave me plenty of hands-on experience, and over the years I've regularly looked after family pets and spent time with a variety of small and medium-sized breeds, including Jack Russells, Chihuahuas, and cross breeds. I work from home full-time, so your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won't be left alone for long periods. Whether they enjoy playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel settled, comfortable, and right at home. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, so I'll always do my best to tailor their care to what they're used to. I'm lucky to live in MediaCity with several great walking spots close by. There's a large grass area right outside my building for quick toilet breaks, additional green spaces just a few minutes away, and larger parks nearby for longer walks and plenty of exercise. Whether your dog is energetic and adventurous or prefers a more relaxed pace, they'll be cared for in a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention and affection. My goal is to make their stay as enjoyable and stress-free as possible while you're away. I know how important it is to feel confident when leaving your dog in someone else's care, which is why I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can see how they're getting on and enjoy complete peace of mind. I offer boarding, doggy day care, house sitting, and dog walking services, and I'd be delighted to arrange a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we're the perfect fit for each other. My flexible work from home schedule means that your dog will have plenty of company, short walks, playtime, cuddles and consistent care all throughout the day! Your dog’s safety is my top priority! I provide a safe, caring home environment with plenty of supervision, excercise and attention throughout the day.
“Chloe has always been reliable and prompt. We have loved all the photos and videos she has sent us. Basil has loved his walks with her and we have put all of our trust in her. We will be asking her to walk Basil again when my husband is back at work. Thank you so much Chloe xx”
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: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats belonging to family, friends, and neighbours, giving me experience with pets of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From daily walks and feeding to playtime, grooming, and sticking to established routines, I understand how important consistency is for a pet’s wellbeing. I’m comfortable caring for both young and senior pets, ensuring puppies get the patience and attention they need while older pets receive gentle care and a slower pace. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I make sure I have the time to give each pet the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning and evening walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to plan my schedule around their needs. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so regular walks are something I genuinely look forward to. I also understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s usual routine, so I’ll follow their feeding times, exercise schedule, and any specific care instructions to help them feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and supervision. In a pet owner’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so they can stay relaxed in a familiar setting. I’m happy to care for pets according to their individual needs, whether that means walks, feeding, litter box or potty breaks, administering oral medication, companionship, or simply keeping them company. I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of affection while respecting any boundaries or training routines they’ve been taught.
“Caroline did a great job, Littlefoot clearly had a great time with her based on the pictures and how tired he was afterwards. Despite our dog being very high energy, strong and mischievous, Caroline seemed to handle him really well and clearly has experience with larger dogs which is great!”

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.

Unfortunately I can not offer pet care at my property as I have a cat. This could maybe change in the future and would be something i consider
“Kacper was absolutely amazing with my dogs! From the start, I could tell he genuinely cared and treated them with so much kindness. He was incredibly reliable, kept me updated, and communicated clearly throughout. He also showed real understanding and patience with my reactive dog’s needs, which meant the world to me. My dogs adored him, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. I couldn’t recommend Kacper more highly!”

Sarah was a last minute lifesaver! We are so thankful for her flexibility and great care. A quick responder, and very communicative about her time with our pup, she gave a great and detailed report with excellent photos. Littlefoot was so pleased and exhausted after her visit. She was able to adapt to the extreme heat and gave him some exercise and company during a long, hot day. We will definitely be booking with her again.
Laura is absolutely wonderful! Met up with me and Sephie on short notice for a little walk as an introduction. Very good accomodating the times I need to book a walk. Great communication and friendly. Good at handling Sephie though she's a strong dog. Always gives great updates so I know Sephie is happy and talented care of :)
We couldn’t be happier with the care you gave our dogs. You were always punctual, friendly, and reliable. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved you and were always excited to see you. Thank you for taking such great care of them—we highly recommend you 💖💖🌹
Rosa was fantastic. We met up the day before so she could familiarise with where the harness and lead are placed. I've also seen Rosa walk her own dog, Lily, in the neighbourhood and know she is confident with walking larger dogs. I would definitely recommend Rosa 😊

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Salford.
