“Levi was absolutely amazing with our cat, Sooty. We knew she would be an awkward customer as she’s very shy, timid and temperamental. Levi kept us updated daily with photos, videos and little updates of how she was. Sooty was well fed and her litter was spotless. Thank you so much Levi for being there for Sooty! Highly recommended!!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I was raised with two Old English Sheepdogs, so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as the daily responsibilities that come with caring for pets, including walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and giving them lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. I work Monday to Thursday, 9-5, in Birmingham city centre, so I’m usually most available for pet sitting on Fridays and weekends. I may also be available for weekday evening visits depending on location. I’m happy to offer reliable visits, feeding, walks, playtime, and company, and I’ll always make sure your pet receives the time, care, and attention they need. I live in a clean, well cared for home, and have a large park nearby, which is ideal for dog walks and outdoor time. I always aim to provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets in my care, while following their usual routine as closely as possible. I’m also very respectful when caring for pets in other people’s homes and would always treat your home, and your pet, with care and consideration.
“Lucy has been absolutely great with Alfie! She is a shy puppy and needed a bit of time to warm up, but Lucy has been so patient, kind and gentle with him. She’s been doing her regular twice-a-week sitting and it’s such a relief knowing Alfie is in such lovely, caring hands. Lucy is professional and clearly really cares about the dogs she looks after! 🐾”
“Paige was wonderful. She was so kind and caring and helped out last minute for daily visits when I was recovering from an operation. She played with my dog and took great care of her. You can see she has a great love of dogs and takes brilliant care of them. Paige was great at communication and timekeeping. Would highly recommended.”

About: I’ve been lucky enough to live with pets for the majority of my life including my family’s dogs Gizmo & Roland, a quirky pair.

About: Since moving out with my partner, leaving behind my family cat (Lola, 9) and golden Lab (Riley, 5) I am missing them very much (despite seeing them weekly still). I would love to spend more time with your pet, taking them for walks, playing and cuddling on the sofa. I have experience looking after other peoples dogs of different breeds (for example staffy, cocker spaniel, mini daschund) for varying periods of time, looking after a lovely cocker spaniel in January 2026 for a week. I am able to walk any dogs whether on or off the lead if they have good recall, and able to wash/shower pets appropriately. I currently work full time - but this is split between uni and actual work days. I have uni days where I work from home all day, and never work weekends. I will care for your pet as my own, ensuring any guidance given is followed correctly to make sure each pet and their individual needs are met.

About: I am a 37 year old SEN Teacher from Tipton and live with my Husband and 9 year old Daughter. I have had cats and dogs my entire life and my love of animals has continued into my adult life as I cannot imagine living in a home without pets! I often prefer animals to humans! I have two gorgeous cats; Domino and Dottie. A beautiful Frenchie Staffy cross called Ginny. My adorable Guinea Pig Waffle. 2 Poison Dart Frogs called Remus and Lupin and many fish! I know how hard it is to leave your fur babies to go on holiday but know I will treat and care for them like my own. I will send as many photos/videos you want. Looking forward to being around some animals to give them fuss and cuddles, making sure they're cared for so that your mind is put at ease while you're away. I am an SEN Teacher from Tipton, which means I am fully flexible during any school holidays. In addition to this, during term time, I am available for evening visits. I will listen to and take your lead on what's the best approach with your fur babies. During the meet and greet, I will gather information to ensure your fur babies will be safe in my care.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have a strong background in care and training. Having trained and cared for horses for many years, I’ve developed patience, consistency, and confidence in handling animals of all temperaments. Alongside this, I’ve always had dogs, and they’ve been a big part of my family life. We currently share our home with a friendly 2-year-old cockapoo who loves meeting new dogs and makes a great companion for visiting pups. Our home is set up with dogs in mind — we have a secure fenced garden for safe playtime, as well as a cosy bay window spot that many dogs enjoy for watching the world go by. Your dog will never be left alone, as either myself or my partner are always at home to give them attention and reassurance. We have several dog-friendly parks right on our doorstep, perfect for walks, fresh air, and play. Whether your dog enjoys lots of activity or prefers a calmer environment, we tailor our care to suit their needs. Above all, we aim to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home-from-home where every dog can feel settled, happy, and cared for as if they were our own. Both my partner and I work from home full-time, Monday to Friday, with no need to go into the office. This means your dog will always have company and care throughout the day. Working in the NHS has taught us that care and compassion are at the heart of everything we do, and we bring that same approach to looking after dogs — always putting their needs first. Our routine is very flexible, allowing us to offer morning, midday, and evening walks, as well as daytime doggy day care. If you need a safe and comfortable place for your dog during the day, they’ll be welcomed into our home where they’ll never be left alone. We also provide boarding, so your beloved dog can stay overnight in a secure and loving environment. With us, your dog will always be in safe hands and part of a daily routine that’s built entirely around making sure they’re happy, exercised, and cared for. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our home is designed with pets in mind, with a secure fenced garden and the back door open during the day so dogs can wander safely between indoors and outdoors as they please. We also have indoor CCTV in our downstairs rooms, giving us extra peace of mind and allowing us to keep an eye on the dogs at all times. We understand that every dog has different routines and house rules, so we adapt to match what you do at home. For example, if your dog isn’t allowed on furniture, we have dog-friendly dividers to replicate that. If your dog is used to a crate, we also have one available and can follow the same settling routine they’re comfortable with. We love capturing moments throughout the day, and if requested, we’re more than happy to share photo and video updates so you can see how your beloved dog is doing. Whether it’s a cuddle on the sofa, playtime in the garden, or a walk in the park, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re happy and safe. Because either myself or my partner are always at home, your dog will never be left alone. Combined with nearby dog-friendly parks for daily walks, a cosy space indoors for resting, and a calm, caring atmosphere, we aim to give every dog a safe, trusting environment that feels just like home.
“Sydney was lovely to work with again (this was the second time she cared for my cats while I was away, but I forgot to leave feedback last time). She arrived when she said she would, sent updates, and asked questions when needed. I will book her again next time I am in need!”

“Chloe was a pleasure to deal with. Friendly professional caring. She’s clearly a natural with animals and was soon befriended by our usually very wary of strangers boy cat who had much fuss. We would definitely use Chloe’s services in the future to look after our 4 cats. Thank you Chloe.”
About: Hi, I’m Lucy! 🐾 I’m a passionate animal lover with a Level 2 qualification in Animal Care and Level 2 Dog Grooming experience, giving me a strong understanding of animal behaviour, handling, welfare and day to day care. I have 7 years of dog sitting experience and also run my own pet care business, where I provide dog walking, drop in visits and pet sitting. I’ve cared for dogs of all different personalities, sizes and needs, including reactive dogs and XL breeds, so I understand that every dog is different and may need a slightly different approach. I’m calm, patient and attentive, and I always take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality and individual needs. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a relaxed sniffy stroll, some extra patience around triggers, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to work around them. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priority. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re being well looked after. 🐶❤️ I’m also more than happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand so you, your pet and I can get to know each other and make sure everyone is comfortable. I’d love to meet your furry friends and give them the care, patience and attention they deserve! 🐾
About: In terms of Dogs I have learned from the best. Dogs are part of the family and integral to my life, I always enjoy giving back the love they've given me. I have availability in the evenings after 6:30pm usually and all day saturday, but please get in touch to ask because my weeks change and I may be able to suit times outside this window. Pets look to us for safety. Practicing commands prior to walks and allowing them to get used to me. After that the dog is much more trusting and engaged when I am with them.

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.

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 , 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.
