“Max had a brilliant few days stay with Kirsty. She took him on lovely country walks, played with him in the garden, provided loads of stimulation, looked after him as if he were her own, snuggled with him, and coped with his boundless excitability and energy. We cannot thank her enough for providing a real home from home and looking after him so well. We were provided with loads of great photos of Max and lots of updates about what he was up to and how he was. We would not hesitate to thoroughly recommend Kristy’s services, and will definitely be back again next year.”
“Michelle and her partner took such good care of our wee Ruby. We felt very reassured and always got updates from Michelle. Ruby got on well with their cockapoo Ronny aswell. Would recommend Michelle for all your furry friends!”
“Natalie did a fantastic job of looking after my wee Alfie boy he was treated like the spoiled wee pup that he is and Natalie sent regular pup dates Alfie was very happy once he got settled in and enjoyed his stay I would deffo recommend Natalie and her family to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
“Katy and Chris were fantastic! Ruby had such a good time while she stayed with them. She got on so well with her buddy Tiger their golden retriever. We felt very reassured throughout her stay because Katy was excellent at keeping in touch with us with pictures and updating us what they all got up to. Will definitely book again and highly recommend Katy and Chris for your furry friends :)”

“I had no qualms about leaving James with Charlotte, she instantly put me at ease with her love for and experience with dogs. She kept me updated throughout his time there and he looked like a very happy boy. I felt so reassured that he was in very good hands. I will definitely book again xxxx”
“Amy made us feel so comfortable with leaving our dogs with her. She was easily able to follow our dogs routines ( medication, allergy accommodations, specialized diets) and provided us with cute pictures and updates every day. She was so communicative and our dogs loved playing in the backyard and being part of her pack! We feel so much more comfortable going on vacations now, knowing they are in Amy’s care.”
“Our 8yo Cockapoo had a ball staying with Joanna. Her stay there was everything that you would want for your dog. Staying in a family home in the country with excellent walks around the area. Joanna was very switched on to the habits and routines of my dog and I was confident that I was leaving her in good hands. Joanna was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times.”
About: I am a young, fit individual who loves going on walks and spending time with animals🐾🏔️☺️ I can provide daily visits for dogs (or cats), dog walking, doggy day care or at times overnight boarding! For overnight boarding the dogs are allowed on the sofa, and there are lots of toys and balls to play with here too☺️ I have had dogs my whole life, starting with labradors and now border terriers. My own dog Teddy has a diagnosis of epilepsy so I am able to manage dogs with medical conditions well. I have access to a car and can drive to any appointments🚘 If my availability doesn’t suit, don’t hesitate to send a request or message anyways and I will see what I can do. My partner often helps me too if I am unavailable🥰 I currently work full time through a shift schedule. However I often have spare time on my hands during days off on which I would love to go a walk or help out other dog owners. I can also provide overnight boarding for well behaved, socialised dogs. When in someone else’s home I will respect any instructions given to me. I can bring my own dog on walks (if wanted) to keep company.

“George was a brilliant cat sitter for my cat Frankie, and I'd definitely book him again! He made time to meet with me and Frankie before I went away, which was really reassuring as I struggle with leaving my little one behind. He sent me lots of updates and took care of her exactly as was requested.”

“Kirsty was amazing with our big softie Lexi. Clearly very well looked after and Lexi had a great time loving all the attention and belly rubs. Kirsty sends regular pictures and updates which was great. Would 100% leave Lexi with Kirsty again if needed.”
About: I have 4+ years of dog care experience on Rover including care for elderly dogs and puppies. I have worked with nervous and disabled dogs. I work at the Galloway Food Hub in St. John's Town of Dalry on Thursdays 11-4 and Fridays 9-5. My partner Leila (see pictures) also helps me with pet care. I care for your dog in and around your home as per your instructions. I give regular updates typically morning and afternoon photos and videos.
“Macy and her partner Joseph have been amazing. We had a quick meet and greet before our first full day booking, which meant my dog (and me) were fully comfortable. On the day they kept me up to date with photos and videos to let me know how things were going. Will 100% be booking in again.”
“Our little Narla spent the day with Michelle & Ronny & absolutely loved it, she had loads of fun with Ronny, she just loves company. Would highly recommend Michelle 🌟 🌟”
“Paul was fantastic, completely set our mind at ease and our dog Barney clearly warmed to him quickly. First time leaving Barney with anyone else and would have no hesitation leaving him with Paul again- hopefully we will be able to in the future. Thanks so much Paul!”
About: I have moved into a new house in April 2026 there is 7acres we are working on to make it into a dog run and fun place for dogs to stay. We provide a different service than most people we treat your pups like our own and listen to what you tell us about them. You will receive updates with videos and messages everyday to show how much fun they’re having. Finally moved into my new property I have full time availability.

Our service is tailored to your puppy ensuring they have the best time with us. Check out our Facebook Dugzonthego
“Rebecca was welcoming and friendly. Communication was great. Poppy seemed to take to her on arrival which is unusual for my unsociable girl. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for Poppy's first time in day care. I'd certainly recommend Rebecca. Worth more stars.”
About: Having grown up on a farm, I'm lucky enough to have looked after animals of all shapes and sizes. In addition to my own lovely old Jack Russell I have a small holding which has approx 20 acres of deer fenced land where dogs can scamper about with out worry of getting out. I am dog first aid qualified, fully licenced and insured and here waiting for your dog to join us for their holiday while you enjoy yours! I work part time so only board dogs when I am off and free to give them plenty of walks and attention! When I'm home , I'm always out and about either walking my own dog or up at the fields tending to my other animals. I'm very flexible and easy going when it comes to caring for your dog. Furniture, beds, or crates...whatever they are used to they will get. All I ask in return is a house trained, fully vaccinated friendly dog who will be happy to share our space and get along with my very friendly old Jack Russell. Prior to overnight visits we do require a trial session, either a day or overnight stay to ensure your dog is going to be happy and settled with us.

“George is really responsive to any communication. Very kind and took the time to get to know our dog. She is not the easiest of dogs and George has been wonderful. We will be aiming to use him regularly.”
About: I have always grown up with animals in the house, particularly dogs. They're a part of the family. I qualified as a veterinary surgeon in 1997 and currently work as a veterinary acupuncturist. I worked in small animal practice for many years so animals and in particular dogs have, and always will be a very big part of me and my life. Due to family commitments I am unable to commit to the responsibility of a dog full time right now but I have lots of free time every day to care for your pet and enjoy walking in any weather. There are many varied walks available nearby from grassland to woods to beaches. Every pet that stays or visits will benefit from enrichment to their environment which includes scatter feeding, lickimats and sniff-aris (to name a few!) I can provide a variety of services depending on your needs - dog boarding, doggy day care, dog walking and drop in visits. I also provide care for cats and small furries. New owner/pet bookings will benefit from £15 off their first booking by clicking on this direct profile link https://www.rover.com/sit/kirsth40895 and entering the promotional code KIRSTH40895. I look forward to meeting you and your pets :) I currently work part time and have plenty of free time to offer professional individually tailored care for your pets. I offer small animal boarding, small animal daycare and dog walking on a daily basis, 7 days a week. I am available to house sit and care for your small animal/s but I am limited to weekends unless by prior arrangement. I am a qualified veterinary surgeon so your pet will be in very safe hands. During your small animal's visit or stay they become part of my family and will be treated as such.
About: I've been around Dogs all my life, from large dogs to tiny dogs. I have over 25 years experience and I am a patient loving person. I am currently working 3 days a week so I have plenty of spare time to help you out with your precious pets in your life. I am a trustworthy person and I'm here to respect your property and help you out with your pets. Whatever you need just message me and we can work it out.
