“Michelle stayed with my boys for the whole Christmas. When I came back, the cats were happy and relaxed :) The whole holidays, and leaving the boys alone was less stressful thanks to her. ”

“Ada dropped in to look after my cat a couple of times at short notice and did a really good job, also providing reassuring feedback to me post-visit. Thank you very much!”

“Thank you so much Joy! My two baby cats absolutely loved you - even my nervous kitten was happy. Joy was great. Very caring, very flexible and kept me updated while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking Joy for Orca and Finn again”

“So pleased we booked with Sena! She was so friendly and patient and we loved the videos of the cuddles she was getting with our (usually very shy) cat. Thank you Sena, see you next time we go away!”

“Laura was wonderful. She was friendly to not only me but my dogs and fiancé. She was timely and communicated beautifully. When I returned home the dogs seemed very content and there were no issues. We recommend her to anyone she has great experience and is a true lover for dogs and animals. She even helped with a friend of mine in the building somewhat last minute which was wonderful and I know they appreciated her as well. We hope to book again with her very soon!”

About: I love pets! I have been around them since I was born, as my parents got a dog before having children. I’m sensitive snd have a sense of kinship with pets, being the youngest child and all!!😁 I would be happy to help you with your pet caring needs. I can: - Go on a nice walk with your doggo, so you can have a relaxed and exercised pet (who will not destroy your favorite shoes!) when you get home. - Board them in my home during the day - Caring visits and spending time with them in your home during the day - Stay with them in your home while you’re away Each pet has different needs and preferences, so I’ll be very happy to discuss their needs, and yours. Please feel welcomed to send any inquiries on how I can help you with your pet caring needs! I’m a postgraduate student in a flexible, writing-up phase. I’m available from 8 am to 10 pm for dog walks, can fit around your schedule, and am available short-notice. I’m respectful and a good listener, so will be aware to and uphold any guidance and boundaries you communicate. I aim to leave things as I found them in any home that I am in. I have a home with a garden which I can host your pet in. I ask that you supply their usual supplies (food, accessories, toys, bedding), so they can be comfortable away from home. As I have 2 cats in my home, who are still getting used to dogs, I will not be able to provide overnight boarding. However, I am happy to look after your pet in your home overnight.
“Gareth has been so patient with my new rescue pocket bully Dooley who has the strength of a buffalo but the confidence of a mouse! He's not minded him nervous weeing all over the floor (and cleaned it up!) and taking it at Dooleys pace (a slow waddle). 🐌 adapting how he greets him in response, which has already made a difference! He has been flexible and even came to check-in on a day he no longer needed to, a visit which increased my confidence massively in Dooleys progress with new people! Gareth is great and would definately recommend him 😊”

About: My rate is a bit lower right now since I'm new to the platform and want to start by earning your trust and building a strong track record of reviews. That said, please know I'll treat your pet with just as much love and care as I would my own :)) I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and it shows in how I care for them. The pug in my profile picture is a pet of my dearest friend, whom I've helped manage through an overweight condition: taking him to vet visits, planning his diet, and cooking him healthy homemade meals from scratch. I make a habit of feeding strays I pass on my way home. A few years ago, I also took in a stray dog who'd been abandoned, nursed him back to health, and helped find him a loving forever family, so I know what it takes to earn a nervous animal's trust. Whether it's a senior dog with special dietary needs or one who just needs a gentle hand, I bring patience, real experience, and genuine care to every furry friend I look after. I'm currently a Master's graduate looking for my next role, so I'm home most days and have a flexible schedule to offer. That means I can be fully present for walks, feedings, and playtime whenever your pet needs it. I'm happy to accommodate early mornings, late nights, or last minute requests, and I treat every stay like it's my own pet's routine: consistent, attentive, and never rushed. Your pet's safety and comfort come first. My home is a secure, calm environment , windows and doors stay closed, and anything harmful like cleaning supplies, medications, or toxic foods is kept well out of reach. Walks are always on-leash, and I stick to a consistent schedule for feeding and walks so your pet feels settled into a routine, not just passing through. I keep your vet's contact info and any care or medication instructions on hand at all times, and I'm prepared for basic first aid if anything comes up. Throughout the stay, I send photo and video updates so you can see exactly how your pet is doing, even when you're away.
About: I started by walking my own dog when I was 10, now I'm not in a position to have my own I love to meet and play with dogs and cats belonging to my family and friends. I'm friendly, caring and considerate, and quickly bond with animals. I have even become the second favourite person in the world to my sister's dog who doesn't give trust easily. I get a full on singing and dancing welcome every toner i visit! I have also built trust with an ex stray cat of my girlfriend, who has given meet kicks and likes to come for some fuss now and then. I work part time, between 8-10:30am and 2:30-4:30pm (or thereabouts) on weekdays, so i have plenty of time during the day to walk and care for your furry family. I'm also available dinner evenings and weekends too. I always leave other people's homes as I find them and maybe even a little better if there is time. I will make sure that your pet has water and anything else it reasonably needs for their health and safety before I leave.
“Nikeisha was fantastic looking after our pets :) I would 100% recommend Nikeisha to look after your pets for you. Communication was fantastic and gave us updates and pictures throughout our booking. We came home to two happy pets :)”
About: I’m available for boarding 7 days a week, so I can offer plenty of flexibility to fit around your plans. I’m happy to care for your cat throughout the week and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection and company during their stay. I can follow their usual feeding and daily routine as closely as possible As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet somewhere you can trust. I have a calm, cat-friendly home where your cat can feel safe and comfortable. I’ll make sure windows and doors are secure, remove any potential hazards and give your cat plenty of space to settle in at their own pace. I’ll follow your care instructions carefully and treat your cat with the same love and attention I give my own cat, Penelope.
About: I grew up in a family that always had pets, especially dogs of all sizes, from Shih Tzu to Mastiff. In 2020, we adopted a kitten named Bagheera, and later, in 2021, we welcomed a puppy named Baloo into our family. I love spending time with them, especially taking Baloo for long walks. However, as I have recently moved to Sheffield, I find myself missing my furry companions during the week. Therefore, I am looking for companions I can care for. I am experienced in providing care for both cats and dogs, including walks and playtime. I work full-time with office hours from 9 am to 5 pm. However, I am available for a drop-in visit during lunchtime at 1:00 pm, as well as before and after my office hours. I'm also comfortable with doing sleepovers at the pet's home." I can provide all the necessary safety to your pets without compromising their play and walk times. I will make sure your dog is on the lead during walks.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life, and I’ve always loved getting to know their individual personalities and quirks. I have experience caring for, walking and training my own dogs as well as friends’ dogs, from puppies through to older dogs and from confident characters to more anxious or reactive ones. I hold a Level 3 qualification in Canine Care, Behaviour & Welfare and enjoy positive-reinforcement training, using clicker training and other reward-based techniques to teach plenty of fun tricks, as well as basic manners and boundaries, and to help dogs feel comfortable and confident in the world around them. I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter, helping with walking and enrichment for dogs who needed a little extra patience and understanding. What I particularly enjoy is working out what makes each dog tick. Some love chasing a ball, some want to sniff every blade of grass, some enjoy learning tricks and others need time and space to build confidence. I don’t believe every dog needs the same walk or the same approach. I believe a good walk should provide plenty of physical exercise, while also giving dogs opportunities to explore, sniff, play and use their brains. I like to incorporate training and enrichment naturally into our adventures, whether that’s practising recall, learning a new trick, playing a scent game or simply giving them time to investigate their surroundings. I’m insured for dog walking and take safety seriously, but I also want dogs to have a genuinely lovely time with me to come home happy, stimulated, tired and ready for a good sleep! I’m flexible during the week and can offer walks and drop-in visits at different times of day. Before we get started, I like to arrange a meet and greet so I can get to know you and your pet, learn about their routine and make sure we’re a good fit. For longer adventure walks, I’m happy to travel to a variety of local green spaces. Each outing is tailored to your dog, whether they love exploring, need plenty of exercise or prefer a gentler pace. I offer one-to-one walks or very small groups of 2–3 compatible dogs, giving each dog plenty of care, attention and time to enjoy themselves. Before heading out, I’ll take the time to learn about your dog’s personality, routines, recall and any worries or boundaries they may have. My aim is for every dog to feel safe, happy and comfortable in my care.

About: I grew up with an anxious dog who’s always a little wary of other dogs, strangers and the vets. This didn’t stop BuBu from being my best friend growing up, as I’ve come to understand their need for space and trust. If you have a furry friend who’s a little anxious or gets nippy when scared, rest assured they will be under great care at our home. I have had plenty of experiences with small dogs in the past but would also be happy to provide walking services for bigger pups with good recall. My partner and I have also adopted a spoilt cat a couple years ago. You will see her in many of my pictures. Since then, Suki has made many friends (some of which you’ll see in the pictures as well). I work in the office from 8-5 from Mondays to Thursdays. On most days my partner will be home before 4pm. We are almost always around during term breaks and weekends and will be more than happy to accommodate the holiday seasons so you and your family can finally go on that trip you’ve been planning! We live in a pet friendly duplex and have space for your fur babies to warm up to the new environment at their own pace. Although we do have a cat at home , we will ensure that she is kept away from your baby and gradually introduce them if they tend to be quite shy.

About: I’ve had animals since growing up including cats dogs, horses and rabbits, working with horses for about 10 years after my college course in equine care. I currently have 2 cats and I am a big fan of recuse animals especially cats who need a second chance at a loving home. I have looked after family and friend’s cats and dogs when they have been away and I always follow their care instructions very well. I’m currently not working, having finished working in a cafe after 9 years, this means I am very flexible around your cat sitting needs. I am an early bird so mornings are not a problem for me- I like being up and about early. I walk happily and can drive so transport is not a problem for me. I follow all instructions left for pets very carefully and always look out for any changes in behavior and would always ask questions beforehand if I was unsure. I will keep to your pet’s daily routine to help them feel safe and comfortable I am not in a position to have animals come to my house as my two cats would not be very happy about this!

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - Sheffield
Rhian was great with both my cats and really understood their personalities and how to approach them. I got daily updates on how they were doing and what was done. I was so happy to come home (after two weeks) to two well cared for cats. Thank you so much from me, Nala, and Appa xx.

Ezra was a fantastic sitter for our cat Floyd while we were away, very reliable and caring. We were away for just over a week and received updates everyday with lots a photos showing them playing and Floyd looking very happy. Ezra had come round before we went away to meet Floyd and learn his routine and handled everything perfectly over the week. Would definitely recommend - thanks Ezra!

We booked Helena at the last minute after being let down by another sitter at very short notice. She was absolutely fantastic, going out of her way on occasions to help make sure our cats (particularly one of them) were looked after, taking the stress away from us. We can’t recommend her enough! Her communication was regulary and gave us updates on all three of the cats. 100% will use Helena’s services again when we go away next.

Bronte was fantastic. It's the first time we have used a service like this and she made it so easy and reassuring. We received daily contact with pictures and when we returned from our holiday, we were welcomed by a very happy cat - which was exactly what we were hoping for. Will be asking Bronte to look after him next time we are away.

There are 1,775 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Sheffield. About 91% of Sheffield sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
