Justine was absolutely amazing with popping in and seeing to my two cats while I was away. She kept me updated with how they were doing with photos as well. Felt really nice and easy to set up. Thank you so much ❤️

Corrina took excellent care of my 3 kitties whilst I was away for a week. She sent me lots of photos, and messages to reassure me. Corrina also hoovered for me to keep on top of the shedding. I came back to three happy, content and well cared for kittens and a spotless house. Would definitely recommend her and will be using her again without a doubt.

About: We have both grown up with dogs, and other pets, our whole lives, and still involved with looking after family dogs. We would love some more dog company and are excited to meet some new doggos! We both work 8am-5pm but with notice, we can work from home for one day at a time. We are often free at weekends Friday - Sunday with notice. We are unlikely to be able to have a dog board for over 2-3 nights due to needing to work from the office most days, but please enquire if you have a query and we'll share our availability. We have a fenced garden. We live right by a large green area, dog parks and the beach, which are perfect for walking dogs. We have tiled/laminate flooring through most of the house.

About: I am a caring person that loves to give as much as attention to a dog as possible. I have been around so many in life and therefore have the confidence to approach any on the street for a stroke or cuddle. I am organised and like to stick to routines for myself or pets I look after. I am definitely an outdoors person but also can relax inside with a lovely cat when I am feeling in the mood for that on a rainy day or for an indoor cat to be loved. I have worked in a lot of customer service roles and therefore have the ability to deliver great experiences for any owner I connect with I have recently completed an Animal and Behaviour psychology course via Alison courses and learn't about various topics - communication, social structure within the animal kingdom, cognitive processes including memory, learning and problem solving for domesticated animals too. I am happy to evidence my certificate and course transcript for any owner and I am keen to do anything else which improves my skills and knowledge about animals in the future too. Any questions, just drop me a message Mike 😊 I am a general volunteer for a community theatre group (In another place) and a self-advocate for People first Merseyside so a lot of my voluntary work is split between those organisations that are very important to me in the week. I generally help In another place on Saturdays in the castle where games and shows happen until 3pm so my day is busy from 10am-3pm on most Saturdays. I can work my hours around my voluntary work or hikes during each day of the week unless there is something that is extremely important not to miss out during my advocacy work at People first. Church for me is attended on 1st or 3rd Sunday of the month as it's part of the open table network and therefore allows for Sunday pet sitting opportunities too I have a secure locking system on my door and a indoor camera which is good for looking at what's going on indoors as well as outdoors in the estate I live in. There is a beautiful canal nearby me and rimrose valley which has plenty of space for dogs to run about in. I like to keep my home as quiet as possible and don't like disturbances much from neighbours either so dogs or cats can relax easily when I am watching TV a low volume or reading a book in the evening in bed. I have very high standards and like to keep my flat as clean as possible through an organised system of tasks to complete each week. I don't have a lot of clutter around me and tend to keep floors as spacious as possible for me or animals too.

Jenna was very accomodating and flexible to suit my needs. She is very friendly and passionate about animals and I felt at ease having her look after my special girl. Jenna brought Dolly out of her shell and seems to be a cat whisperer! Jenna also kept me updated with photos and videos which I appreciated a lot. I will be using Jenna to mind Dolly whenever I need her looking after. I highly reccommend. Thanks Jenna :)

About: I have always had dogs all through my life, but due to living alone I can’t keep one for now this is why I took up dog walking as I absolutely adore pets especially dogs. I love to walk and be outdoors with them, teaching them new tricks and loving them like they are my own. I have 5 years of dog walking/pet sitting experience, I have a pet first aid certificate and I am insured I am currently full times dog walking, so any time during the day to the evening I am available. I also provide day care 9-5pm. I will feed them if they need it and they have regular snacks during the day if agreed with owner. Also the will be offered water

About: I’m looking for dog owners around Crosby who would like regular walks for their dogs health and wellbeing. Happy to do off-lead walking with recall-trained dogs after checking their obedience with a new walker, but also have experience with dogs who need to stay on lead for more sniffy walks. I am studying Environmental Management with the Open University so fitting in dog walking alongside studying part-time. I try to walk or cycle to most of my clients and am based near Crosby Village. If I sound like a good fit for you, please get in touch! 🚴🏼‍♀️ 🦮 🐾 I’m currently studying part-time with the Open University so generally quite flexible. I am trying to keep my dog walking schedule to two to three days per week! Happy to drop-in to your home to care for your pet and will make every effort to follow the care routine your dog is used to (e.g. feeding / walking schedule, when they can be treated etc.). Happy to follow your lead as the owner (no pun intended!)

About: I've had cats and dogs since I was just 1. I have always grown up and loved them unconditionally all my life. I treat every animal like family and as the friend that they are. Every animal has their own personality and I'd love to get to know your dog/cat better also 😊 I work full-time 3 days a week, on a 3 on 3 off basis. So I am available for bookings on my 3 days off work or at extra times throughout the year when I am on leave. Just enquire with a booking to see if I'm available 😊 I have a fur baby and cats of my own, that all love meeting new people. Which will give your little family member someone to have fun with if they board with me. If I am sitting in your own home, I have plenty of experience of caring for dogs and cats, as I've had them since a very young age continuously throughout my life. I treat every animal I meet as family and will give them all the best care and love that I can possibly offer.

About: Hi, I’m Francesca! I’m a recently graduated vet providing pet care in the Crosby area. I am happiest when spending time with animals, and I would love to provide pet care services for your dog/cat! I have been looking after pets for 3 years alongside my studies, and I have absolutely loved getting to know the personality of each and every dog I have cared for. As a pet owner myself, I understand that it can be daunting leaving your pet with someone else, which is why I aim to make the process as stress free as possible: I provide a (free) initial meet and greet, as well as regular updates with pictures as often as you would like! I have experience caring for my own dog, Daisy, a Springer Spaniel cross, who has plenty of energy and needs lots of stimulation. She has recently lost her vision entirely, and so I welcome any dogs with visual impairments as I feel confident in being able to manage this. I have experience with energetic dogs who require lots of play and interaction, as well as more laid back dogs who may require a slower pace. Just let me know what your dog needs and I will adapt my services to suit them. My goal is always to prioritise the individual needs of your pet to keep them happy and safe! I also have experience in owning cats, and I have previously been a volunteer at Freshfields Animal rescue (back at home in Liverpool) in the cattery, so I am used to following different dietary requirements and also administering medicine in food. I would love to help look after your pet, and love them as if they were my own! Please don’t hesitate to message me if you have any questions or requests, thanks for reading! I am able to be quite flexible with my timetable so don’t hesitate to message with your required date and I’ll let you know if I’m available :) I will follow any instructions given by the owner, such as keeping dogs on leads at all times, or keeping them out of certain rooms in the house. Can also do small household tasks when house sitting if required, such as watering plants, taking in mail etc.

Rebecca has looked after Kit and Ginger for us a few times now and has done a perfect job each time, which is not easy as we have a nervous boy who also needs meds! We had a great communication experience each time and really enjoyed the updates via photos etc. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating when we had to reschedule and also extend care due to delays in our travels. We would definitely book her again!

We very recently adopted a puppy while already having two cats. Kelly-Marie paid a drop-in visit to us while my partner and I were attending a wedding. We received lots of updates in the form of pictures and videos and we can tell everyone was well taken care of! Also, our cat Kit, who is an anxious boy and tends to keep himself hidden away from unfamiliar people, even made an appearance so that was great to see!

About: INSTAGRAM ⭐️ Danielles.doggy.daycare follow for live updates! I have taken care of dogs for 9 years now. I have 3 beautiful sausages under the age of 2 at the moment. Boarding dogs Dogs will be given a separate room cleaned daily, cage or bed is requested. Extra bedding will be available and washed. During your dogs stay you can expect 3 walks a day -morning/lunch/evening. You will also receive updates as often as possible. Your dog will receive playtime slots solo and also with my pups. Dogs will be given treats/bones/dental sticks food will always be available along with fresh water. If anpup comes in season I have puppy pads and also re usable nappies that’s will be cleaned daily to keep hygiene levels high. All of this is included in the price and helps me to keep a good store of stock so all dogs get the best treatment when staying. All treats are bought naturally so are a-little more expensive so I can cater to dogs with digestive issues ect too. If requested I can wash dogs also before going home or after walks (you can supply if you have any or your dog needs specific shampoo). Even the best toilet trained dogs sometimes like to leave there scent or have an accident. If this happens owner will be told , if you’d like to supply cleaning products such as wipes, that would be amazing (I’ve had some wee on my sofa and on carpets so it can become a little pricey) but it isn’t required! I look forward to having your pups stay with us we always have the best adventures in the parks, beaches. I drive so we often go on a lot of different types of walks to keep your pups entertained and never board! I work part time so I have a lot of free time on mornings, evenings and weekends. I can also walk the dogs in the rain as every dog deserves to get out. I have a spare dog room for dogs I host, I also have 3 special fur babies who are used to additional dogs coming into and out of our home, I have a enclosed yard and very close to some great parks and beaches.

About: I have had family dogs since I was very young and now have my own dog, Teddy. He's 5 now and i've had him since a puppy. He's very friendly and enjoys walks and playing with other dogs but I am also happy to do walks and drop ins without him. I have now been on rover for over 2 years and have been lucky enough to care for many lovely dogs! I have regular and one off clients for walks, day care and overnight stays so have had lots of experience in ensuring your pets have a caring, fun and safe stay with me. I work from home in a flexible role so am almost always available for walks, drop ins and doggy day care at my house too! I have a flexible job meaning I can take your pets out for walks as often as needed. I have crate training experience so am happy to do so if you wish but i'm more than happy for dogs to join me on the furniture too for a more relaxed cuddly stay!

I can fit one or two days a week to do, dog walking or dog sitting or popping in to check in on your fury friend With my two big XL American bullies they have a big garden and we take them out for a walk regularly, I will listen to every client how they would like me to look after their fur babies

Anna was brilliant! I was worried about leaving my cat at first as I had never left her alone before but was made up with Anna’s drop in visits. I felt so much more relaxed when seeing the pictures and videos of kitty without me. Anna spoilt my cat with play time and treats just the way I would’ve, will definitely use rover again and wouldn’t even think about putting her into a cattery

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.

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.

Yes, absolutely! Many sitters on Rover are experienced in caring for multiple pets simultaneously, whether you have a pack of dogs, a clowder of cats, or a mix of both.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Sefton pet parents with similar pet households.

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 .

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sefton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.

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. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
