About: Based in Wednesbury, I have been pet sitting for several years on Trusted House Sitters and House Carers as well as caring for friend's and family's companion animals when needed. I have experience looking after dogs, cats, rodents, sheep, birds, fish, goats, poultry, rabbits and cows in both the UK and France. Over the years I have built up an amount of excellent 5* reviews and references I offer pet sitting in your home or boarding. When staying in a client's home I take good care to leave it in an excellent, clean state. Your pet's welfare and happiness is of highest priority and I will ask for several details from you about his/her personality, likes/dislikes/routine/ health requirements and history etc including last flea and worming treatment and vet details. This enables a secure handover where both parties are happy in the knowledge your pet is in safe hands. I can also board small animals such as hamsters, rats, mice etc. I only board one pet at a tim unless they come together as one family. I have a secure high fenced back garden and a recreation field nearby for long walks. I have a certificate in pet first aid and DBS checked.( Please ask to see if you wish). As well as Rover reviews I have included copies of previous references and reviews in the photo gallery section of my profile from Trusted house sitters. There you can also see a selection of the animals I have cared for as a house sitter spanning many years. Please check my Rover calendar before contacting me to avoid disappointment. 🙂 I currently work from home so am available 24/7 to supervise your pet is boarding with me.. Please ask me for further details about availability and particular needs. I have a small, but welcoming house with wildlife friendly front and back gardens. There are no other animals living at my home so any boarders won't be sharing with any unfamiliar animals when coming to stay. In my past experience as a pet sitter I have cared for up to three dogs or four cats comfortably at the same time so I can board or come care for more than one pet if they usually live together. I understand the importance of sticking to routines and feeding schedules. Cats will be boarded at my home as house cats, with 24hr access to toilet facilities and a lap :-). I have experience administering tablet form medications and caring for disabled older dogs in their own home.
About: I have always had dogs so I have experience taking care of my own and other people's puppies, active and senior dogs so I can provide the best care for your furry friend. I'm currently working part-time on mixed shifts so I have plenty of time to look after your pets and take the for walks no matter how long. I have experience walking my dog up mountains so I can walk very energetic dogs. If I look after your pet at your home I will discuss your pets needs with you to ensure your pet gets the best treatment
“Anzelika was brilliant. Reliable, bonded with my cat, gave veey detailed updates each day with pictures. Anzelika did more than i expected. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her going forward”

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.”
“We can’t fault Stephanie, she was absolutely wonderful with our cat, very friendly and professional and her communication before and during the visits was great. I loved that she regularly updated us and sent us little videos of our cat happy and playing, it really put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing she was in very safe hands. Would definitely recommend her as a pet sitter and will be booking with her again next time we go away!”
“Laura was an amazing cat sitter for Midnight. She took extra care for our fur baby especially because she wasn’t well whilst we were away. She kept us updated and did additional care for her. It’s the little things that help keep your mind at ease. Thank you Laura for taking care of midnight and being an amazing cat sitter. X”
“This was the very first time I've ever used a pet sitting service and I was a little bit nervous about trusting a stranger into my home to look after my pet, but I couldn't have asked for a nicer and more considerate person who genuinely loves animals than Kaitlin. There was updates and photos after each visit which gave us constant reassurance and comfort knowing Napoleon was in safe hands. Top marks. Very reliable and trusting. Thank you so much x”
About: I adore dogs and have a dog free house, having lost my beloved senior Staffy in 2023. I am very experienced with dogs with medical needs, senior dogs and a variety of breeds. I know how anxiety inducing it is when your beloved family member has to stay at home when you go on holiday or away for whatever reason, and can give your dog the love and care they need while you are away. I work from home on the computer and live next door to Sandwell Valley country park, so can offer 24 hour care to your dog. Walks are mornings before midday and/or evenings after 4pm, and access to the garden is at anytime. Walks can be in the quiet farmlands or the more lively park, depending on your dogs needs and preferences. The house is dog friendly and secure. The garden is completely fenced off with a 7 foot solid fence.
About: I have always had a love for animals, my family raised me vegetarian and caring about animals has been a big part of my life since I can remember. I have 2 dogs of my own, however, I grew up with cats and I enjoy looking after all animals. I currently work full time but before I went into my current role, I was a dog and cat sitter for family & friends.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner I have hands on experience caring for a wide variety of pets including cats, rabbits, tortoises, turtles, lizards and frogs to name a few. I understand that every animal has unique needs from feeding routines and habitat maintenance to providing attention enrichment and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own ensuring that they receive reliable attentive and compassionate care whilst you are away. I am currently working part time in a school so I am available most of the day. Giving me plenty of opportunity for multiple drop ins for your pet. I understand that no two pets are the same and some require specific care. I am happy to work on a care plan with the owners to ensure that their beloved pet gets the right care. To board pets in my home you would be required to provide a temporary habitat for example a small cage for furry animals or a vivarium for reptiles. Heat sources can be provided.

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.

About: I am someone who enjoys helping people and sharing ideas. I like learning new things and turning thoughts into simple words so others can understand them easily. I really love cats because they are calm, cute and full of personality. Cats can be playful but also very peaceful. I like how they sit quietly near you and make you feel relaxed. I once had a cat who was very curious and playful. It liked to follow me around the house and sometimes sit next to me while I was sleeping. It also loved sleeping in warm places. Having that cat made me very happy because it was a friendly and comforting companion That is why cats are special to me . They are loving,gentle and always bring a little joy to everyday life.

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.
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.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm.
