“Ana was fantastic with our dog, so kind and loving! We booked last minute for a drop in service while we was out for the day. Lenny was super comfortable with Ana and loved playing ball in the garden. Ana was great and check his water supply and that he was comfortable before leaving. We will definitely use Ana again. Highly recommended.”
About: I’m passionate about creating a safe and happy environment where every dog feels loved and cared for. With plenty of time to dedicate to your furry friends, I’m available weekends and week days to ensure your pet receives the attention they deserve. My home is perfect for dogs to relax and play. It’s just myself and my little 5-year-old pug, who is friendly, playful, and eager to make new friends. We also have a spacious, secure grass garden where your dog can enjoy fresh air and exercise in a safe environment. I work from home, which gives me plenty of time to play with and care for your beloved dogs! I’m available for boarding seven days a week, including both weekdays and weekends, ensuring your furry friends get all the attention and love they deserve. At my home, pets are treated like family. I create a safe and loving environment where they feel relaxed and happy. Since I work from home, I’m always around to give plenty of attention and playtime. I share my home with our friendly 5-year-old pug, who loves making new doggy friends. We have a spacious and secure grass garden that offers plenty of room for running, playing, and exploring safely. Whether your dog enjoys snuggles on the couch, fun outdoor activities, or quiet moments to rest, I tailor the care to suit their individual needs.
About: I have been around animals all my life. From cats to dogs, to rabbits and guinee pigs, I’m confident on what they all require, from daily walks, to feeding schedules and plenty of love! I’m often asked to dog sit & cat sit from family and friends, so it would be no change to every day life. I am offering out my services of dog walking and pet sitting, so please drop me a message. I am currently fully flexible with my hours, so I can work around your pet, your work schedules and daily lives. Whether this be dog walking early morning and late evening, or mid day toilet trips, I am available to work around your schedule. I don’t currently offer services from my own home however I ensure a safe environment for whomever I am looking after. I know what animals should and shouldn’t eat, and if your pet has any specific requirements ie medicine I am experienced in providing this. I know to give pets plenty of love, but I also know when an animal wants their own space and would be happy to let them be in their own home if that’s what they require. I would ensure their water bowl is constantly filled up and they have access to toilet breaks and walks and fresh air. To ensure I could react in the best possible way if an emergency scenario were to arise, I would need to have emergency contact details on hand, including registered vets.
About: i have owned dogs all my life. i love going for long walks so would absolutely love to have a furry friend as a companion for them as well as short ones. I work from home so can pop out to walk/check in on your dogs any time that you need, at any time of the day! i will always keep the dogs on a lead roadside but happy to let them off to have a wander in places that are fenced off
About: I have grown up with a variety of animals my entire life, all varying in ages and sizes. I currently provide pet sitting and walking in addition to my current full time job for friends and family. This includes looking after my sister’s 11 month old puppy and training where possible. I am currently working full time Monday to Friday in a college. With my weekends free, I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which allow me to pet sit on these days, I can do overnight stays so long as I don’t have an event. With my job I sometimes do overtime which allows me to book off additional days for pet sitting should I need to. I prefer looking after pets in the pet owners home as I believe pets deserve to feel at home and safe, what safer space is there for them than a space they live in. I will provide the upmost care and respect in your home, I am also DBS checked
About: I have always had a dog in my life and they have become an essential part of my family, Jordan my partner has also grown up around dogs. We both love having a dog to be able to love and take on walks over the weekend and we will always make sure your dog has the best time in our home! I currently work full time and therefore have set my days to Friday Saturday and Sunday to ensure that all dogs get all the time and love they deserve We care for pets in a completely holistic way if there are any specific requirements I am more than happy to discuss these before looking after your dog, use any language that you have trained them with.
“We had a great experience with Jonny as our cat sitter. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about animals. Our cats were happy and well looked after when we got home, and we appreciated the updates along the way. We’d definitely use Jonny again and highly recommend him!”
About: I cared for dogs and cats since I was a child, now I have 4 cats living with me and they are my babies. Love animals and would love to meet yours. I am currently working full time from 6 oclock till 2 oclock, so I am available evenings on weekdays and all day and night on weekends. I would prefer to care for animals at your house as my cats do not like other pets. They are silly. Also I am renting.
About: I care for cats and dogs as if they were my own — from cuddles and playtime to sticking to their exact routines. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to seniors needing extra patience and care. Confident with walks, feeding, grooming, and giving medication, I tailor my approach to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I currently work from home and my job is super flexible so I can work my hours around playing and caring for your pets. I can do drop ins, walks and pet sitting any time during the week and most weekends. I can easily work my schedule around your pets routine. I have a fenced big back garden and plenty of green spaces around me to play and walk your dogs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand their routines, needs, and any special instructions you provide. I’m careful on walks, avoiding unsafe areas and always using secure leads and harnesses. I believe trust is built through reliability, clear communication, and consistent care — which is why I send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether in your home or mine, I create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for as if they were my own.
About: I have experience of owning and looking after family and friends dogs. I am a keen walker, loving nothing more than being out with dogs locally. I curently work part time in a freelance basis at home so have lots of time to help to care for and walk dogs locally. I am always up and about walking our dog early, then we have a other couple of walks planned through the day. We have an enclosed garden so we have fun between walks playing in the garden. I have a large fully enclosed back garden and live in a village near Selby giving us access to beautiful walks and fields on my doorstep.
About: As an animal lover and previous dog owner myself, i am very aware of the anxieties leaving your furry members of the family at home can bring, which is why I have created this home away for home experience for your doggies to ensure their tails are wagging and they are truly happy and comfortable. I have vast experience with a wide range of breeds, big, small and even miniature and would be happy to accommodate any specific requirements to enhance your puppies/dogs stay and ensure all their needs are met. My little one (13 months old) is amazing around dogs and loves being outdoors 🐾 so rest assured your fur babies will be included in everything we do! However, if your dog is a little anxious around other dogs or just likes to explore solo, I can accommodate for that too! 🐕 I am currently still on maternity leave, so my availability is pretty broad and your fur babies will never be left alone and get all the love and attention they crave ❤️ Our adventures include exploring somewhere new each time we walk, whether that’s the beautiful scenic spots around Yorkshire (canal, woodland, open fields) or further afield (beach and doggy parks) where they can enjoy all the sights, smells and stimulation they need. However, I understand this could be a lot for some dogs/puppies so would adjust accordingly. I am also willing to offer a pick up and drop off service, depending on time and distance, to ease the process for you and your fur baby. As a nurse I also have an enhanced DBS check. Your pup/dog will have access to my entire flat including sofas and the bed with plenty of space to eat, sleep, rest and play - there’s even a big toy box to choose from 🧦🦖🦴
About: Me and my partner, James have grown up with a range of family puppies and dogs; Spaniels, terriers, dobermans, Shih tzus , Pugs and more! We love dogs! We have a large secure garden, access to countryside walks and lots of affection to give to your dog. We know how important it is that when you need someone to look after your furry companion that it is someone you can trust and who will provide the best care. Please note before enquiring that we do have a 4m old baby & 7 year old, they are both around dogs constantly so we are comfortable but we also need to know that you & your dog are comfortable too. I’m currently on maternity leave so I have lots of free time during the week to play and do lots of walking with the dogs! We have a fenced garden which is secure and great for exercise or play time. We are happy for your dog to do what makes your dog comfortable.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young, having 3 family dogs in the home. I love the outdoors and walking loads too for the more adventurous dogs too! I work hybrid so have the flexibility to WFH meaning lots of cuddles and toilet breaks, plenty of walks and engagement. I also work half days on Friday so have the availability to walk on Friday afternoons too. I am happy to view homes before dog sitting and understand the environment in which your pet lives in, will require the basic needs of your dog before hand and learn about their habits (no off lead etc)
“Jingxi was phenomenal watching Sylvie while we were away. We needed someone when our regular dog sitter was at work (we work from home) and Jingxi was fantastic at making sure Sylvie went potty, had some treats, and played. She went above and beyond and was so so communicative. We will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to look after their fur babies! 😍”
“Laura has been amazing caring for our three cats during the past 3 months. Not only has she been to the house every day, she has sent photos and messages to reassure us that all the cats are safe and well. She has reported any concerns immediately. She is very efficient, honest and reliable. We would recommend her without reservation.”

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 Selby 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.

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.
