“What a star! I feel so happy to have found Shani - reliable, helpful and above all really “gets” my doggie. I know he had quality time with her and I can relax, knowing he is in good hands.”

About: I have a gap in fostering dogs right now and would love to offer help with your furry friends so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I have my own business and work from home so am pretty flexible to whatever your pets requires to feel at ease. I’m often around and can pick up last minute requests. I’ve joined rover as a sitter because I usually foster dogs and have struggled to find reliable, local sitters and so understand the importance of what is needed when you leave your loved one with a sitter while you are away. Whether it be while you’re at work or on holiday, rest assured your baby will be loved and cared for. I have a small but enclosed garden with 6 foot fencing which is perfect for a run around. I offer a tailored service so we can talk about what best suits your dog when we meet.

About: I am a Volunteer foster carer for an animal shelter and have taken care of multiple dogs over the last couple years. My experiences mainly focus on small-mid sized dogs, such as Pomeranian, Bichon, Yorkshire terrier, Staffordshire, Doberman, etc. I have a cat myself so I fully understand dogs’ and cats’ everyday needs, I have the right mindset for understanding their behaviours and am equipped with basic training skills. I’m working part time so am reasonably flexible. I live in NG5 area, but I could travel further as I drive. I’m open to short notice booking too. My partner (who’s also a volunteer foster carer) is home most of the time, although I will be the main carer giver in terms of walking the dog or playing with them. The house has a fenced garden, a spare room for the dog if they prefer, and it’s ideal for dog that doesn’t cope with being alone very well. Except from our bed, doggies are welcome in all around the household.
“Alice and her Partner have been absolutely brilliant. They have looked after Winnie so well, even taken her out for longer and to the Pub for tea with them! They genuinely love your dog like you would want them to and they have handled her well when she can be a bit tricky around Cats! I can’t recommend them enough.”

About: I Grow up with 3 Dogs of different sizes. I'm also experienced in rodent, feline & fish care since I was very young. Animals are my life 💕 I currently work part time and work the same hours and days every week. So a good routine and schedule would be easy to build. I have 3 indoor cats. If I do take them out, they wear a harness. They have a floor to ceiling cat tree and plenty of toys to keep them entertained.
About: I've done a lot of cat sitting, usually over a long period of time. Additionally I've had a pet dog for the majority of my life. I'm currently at NTU in my second year. So I should have lots of spare time to walk and care for pets. I'm avaliable mostly in the evenings from 4 and in gaps during lectures and seminars I'm very accustomed to caring for pets, especially dogs and cats. So I will have no trouble feeding and walking pets in a pets owners home.
About: Hi, I’m Ivy! I’m a student at Nottingham studying Education, and I have a deep love for animals. Whether it’s my own cat or caring for the pets of friends and family, I’ve always found joy in making sure animals feel happy, loved, and safe. One of the biggest advantages of having me as your pet sitter is my flexible schedule. As a student, I have plenty of free time during the day to give your pet my undivided attention. Whether they need extra playtime, long walks, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll be there to provide consistent care, affection, and fun. I’m patient, attentive, and will always adapt to your pet’s personality and preferences. If you’re looking for someone with a flexible schedule, lots of energy, and a genuine love for animals, I’d love to help! As I am a student I have plenty of time during the day to play and look after your pets and give them all my attention and give them the best care they deserve. I am good at adapting to my surroundings and will always make sure I provide a safe place for your pet and ensure they are happy.

“Sarah is super calm and relaxed, our rescue dog Hazel is a bit anxious around new people but Sarah put her at ease and looked after her for us with plenty of updates and photos. Thanks so much Sarah! xx”

Sherwood cat owners share their Rover experiences
Laura was really amazing with my cat Phoenix. She looked after him exactly how I asked and I felt very reassured. She also sent me pictures of Phoenix everyday which made my travel much more stress free. I could tell she created a good rapport with Phoenix too, which made me really happy. I’m very pleased with her service and will definitely book her again soon.

Our first time with Cat in a Flat and we hit the jackpot! From the moment we met Abi we knew our lads were in safe hands and so it proved. She quickly set up a great routine for Jet and Cooper and receiving cuddles from them showed how much they could trust her! The photos showed all this! We’d like to use Abi again and we’ll also let our cat keeping friends know about her! Receiving all this meant we also had a great time not having to think about how the lads were getting on. Abi, thanks ever so!!
Linda, Looked after Jasper perfectly, keeping us up to date with photos and messages. We were very pleased with the attention and care which Linda gave to Jasper. We would thoroughly recommend Linda and would definitely choose for Jasper to be looked after by Linda again.
Rhiannon came for a pre-visit and collected the key. We talked about our cats needs and schedule. Rhiannon then arrived, on time, each day she was visiting Shadowfax and Wesley and sent us lots of photos and updates. Would definitely book Rhiannon again to look after Shadowfax and Wesley.

Shani saved my holiday. I booked a cat sitter who was supposed to show up the day before I fly and never did. I found Shani and she came round the following day, could do everything I asked and send some amazing updates. Thank you for taking such good care of my cat!💜
