About: Now experienced dog sitters, Louke and I have both grown up with dogs. At the moment as well as our own dog, Pacey (a rescue Border Collie x Retriever) we also have ‘shared custody’ of Louke’s parents’ Lab Retriever, Oli. We regularly look after our family dogs, which range from Frenchie to Shitzu to Labradoodle. We’ve experience with dogs of all sizes and had dogs from a pup so we’re capable with training too. We understand from having our own anxious boy how hard it can be finding trustworthy sitters who treat your dog like their own, but that is definitely what we will do. We’re happy to continue any training needs your dog may have and have experience with dogs of all ages. I’m very outdoorsy so love going on long walks - my favourite local spot is Nescliffe Hill, but also love an afternoon on the Long Mynd. Louke is at home full time and available to do additional dog walking services, and I work in a hybrid role working from home some days of the week, so we have a great schedule for caring for your four-legged friends. We only have a maximum of five dogs at a time, including our own dog Pacey. We have a walled garden for playing, and some nice spots locally to our home for walks, but will also be taking them out in the car (provided you are comfortable with this) for longer walks. As mentioned above, we have our dog Pacey living with us full time and Oli once or twice a fortnight, and they’re both very easy-going and friendly so plenty of opportunity for your dogs to socialise.
About: Hi! My name is Natalia, I'm 30 years old, from Malaysia and currently living in Shrewsbury. My house has a secured fenced-off garden that your doggies will have full access to, as well as large kitchen, dining room and living room with a comfy sofa and armchairs. I have plenty years of experience caring for my 3 dogs (German Shepherd mix, Malinoise mix and Jack Russell mix) since childhood and owned 2 cats back in Malaysia. I have been on Rover for 2 years caring for over 20 dogs and 2 cats. I'm excited to look after your dogs / cats. I enjoy hiking, walking and love the outdoors. There are many beautiful parks and nature reserves that I regularly walk near to my house. I'd love to have a pawbuddy to walk and play in the open fields together. I always put lots of love and attention into my walking and sitting. I enjoy keeping my furry friends company, playing with them and give lots of cuddles! I will treat them as my own furbabies. I look forward to hearing from you and looking after your pets while you're busy/away 💙 I am now working. Any requests would need to be made atleast 2 days earlier so I can arrange my WFH 2-3 days on weekdays to give lots of attention, love, and care for your pets. My house has backyard fully fenced and garden accessible for your pets. I have arm chairs and big sofa for your pets to snuggle and lay on.
About: Hi, I'm David! I work to ensure that fur babies of all sizes are properly looked after and cared for, with plenty of cuddles and attention. I've spent my life around animals and understand how irreplaceable loved ones are. I am willing to meet up before arrangements to find out whether we're a good fit for each other and your pet(s). Although I am new to this platform, I am not new to what it takes to care for a variety of different animals including Dogs, Cats, Birds, Hamsters, Reptiles and even my sheep named Minty. I love animals and I'm happy to learn how to care for them, even the ones I'm unfamiliar with. That doesn't stop at the type of pet or the personal needs that each may have. I understand that each pet has their own needs, including how long they can comfortably be left alone for. Pets would rarely be left alone for extended periods during my care, and I would send regular photo updates so you can see how they're getting on. Although I have a willingness to learn and adapt, I love animals so much that I would not feel comfortable feeding one animal to another pet (with the exception of bugs/insects). Transparency and honesty are important to me, so feel free to ask me anything. It's very important to me that both you and your fuzzy, fluffy, feathered or even scaly family member feel at peace knowing they're in safe hands. I am also fully DBS checked. In the unlikely event of an emergency, your pet's safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I carry a phone at all times and will contact you immediately if any concerns arise. I am available early mornings and evenings. I can walk your pets for around 30 minutes, more or less depending on their needs, and would keep them within Shrewsbury. During stays I can maintain things like litter boxes and enclosures. If you require assistance with more extensive work, we can discuss things further. I look forward to helping. Pet Care 🐾 I work full time from home on a rota that varies between 8AM-9PM, but most shifts are between 8AM-6PM, and I sometimes work on weekends, because of this I don't have a 'set' schedule, however, I would almost always be available during the early morning, evening or on my days off to take care of your pets. Boarding & Drop-In Visits 🏡 Due to me working from home, if you require a pet sitter at your home I would be available on most days, providing that you have accessible Wi-Fi for me to connect my laptop to and a table for me to work at. If you require Drop-In Visits, I can also accommodate these on most days as my work hours can be flexible, but early mornings, lunch time and evenings would work best for me, let me know your preferences on Drop-In times and we can figure something out. 💕🌼 Pets have needs and wants like the rest of us. It's important for us to be in-tune of what they are, just as we would for ourselves. I know that I wouldn't appreciate my bathroom break being put on hold for an hour; when you gotta go, you gotta go! It's the same for them. 💩 I would give your pets frequent 'potty' breaks/walks to match their personal needs. I would also give your pets lots of love and attention throughout the stay and if you have a set schedule that your pet eats at and likes to take walks, please let me know and I will try my best to accommodate you and your pets needs. If your pet requires medicine, I have done this before and would be comfortable with administering that for them, just let me know beforehand precisely what dosage and how you typically provide that for them. 🩺 During home stays I would leave no mess behind and ensure I would maintain your home and any cat litter trays and/or enclosures. 🧼
“Thank you so much for accommodating a last minute change of plans and walking Ernie today especially as it's freezing 🥶 Ernie looked like he had a lovely time and enjoyed his walk 😊”
About: I have had pets my entire life until my dog of over 16 years passed away in January 2025. I miss playing, walking, training and hanging out with him very much and truly understand how our pets are part of our families. I currently work from home full time 8:30am - 16:30pm. If I am boarding a pet, I would be able to provide regularly attention and toilet breaks during my working hours and exercise outside during my lunch breaks and after 16:30pm I have a good sized back garden. It has a poor fence on one side but if that would be a concern, I can use a leash or walk the dog to a local park 5mins away. Always happy to play with and train dogs during the day for physical and mental exercise as well
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have always loved caring for them. I’ve had cats since I was young, rescued 3 lovely dogs, worked at a dog daycare in London, and volunteered at dog kennels, so your pets will be in experienced and loving hands 😊 I’ve just moved back from London to be with family and my aim is to do dog walking/sitting full time so my availability is very flexible, I can be free in the week and on weekends. I currently live in a lovely home with my mum with a fenced off garden for your dog to run around, and spaces in the home for your dog to rest and relax! If you need me to come to your home that’s no problem

We offer plenty of enrichment for those unbearable hot days where it's not safe to take out for walks due to the heat. I have plenty of time,energy to spend with my own girls who love to spend time with newbie playmates. Ball chucks and long walks are a must in our daily routine. I also hold a Enhanced DBS as I volunteer craft days for the local council and also do Facepainting for children, my calendar fits around these activities.

“Sarah is great! We wanted a dog walker/ sitter to look after our Jack Russel Buster whilst we were visiting family and Sarah is just what we were looking for! Buster instantly took a liking to her, which is a relief. We know buster is in safe hands and we'll definitely keep using Sarah! We haven't used the dog sitting service but I'm sure we will soon.”
“Zoe can sometimes be a little distant when first getting to know someone but took to Jessica right away, so I had no concerns with leaving her and she really seemed to enjoy her walk. You can clearly see that Jessica has a love for animals and I'm sure Zoe picked up on that.”
About: I have grown up around dogs, and lived rurually with horses, sheep and chickens as a responsibility to help my family with them since around 10 years of age. I am a runner and enjoy walks to break up my online work when dog sitting. My mum is extremely good with dogs and has trained many a dog. Establishing routine and mutual respect with her dogs. I pride myself on being intuitive and listening to the needs of the animals I care for. I have looked after cats a few times since house sitting and enjoy learning their behaviours and needs. I have been a house sitter more seriously since Sep 2023 I work online as a health coach within my business that I started in 2023. I have a very flexible schedule with a few calls dotted around in the week. I currently teach classes in church stretton 2 evenings a week for a maximum of 2 hours, and lunchtime on Wednesday, and morning until lunch on Thursdays in Shrewsbury. I will be available to house sit in your home, and will be available to talk about any measures needed to help with safety. I was in the RAF Police and I am very vigilant when it comes to securing the house in which I am staying in.
About: I have been around dogs and cats all my life and am happiest when taking care of them. So much so I have pursued a career as a veterinary nurse! My skills as a nurse mean I am great at understanding your pets' behaviour and can fulfill any medication requirements they may have. I live away from my own pets so I miss spending quality time with animals and I can't wait to meet yours! As well as my experience at work and with my own pack, I have cared for my friend's pets several times. I love going on long walks so if you have an active dog, I would be delighted to take them on some adventures too. I aim to work around you and your pet's schedule as much as possible so please don't hesitate to let me know what you are looking for. However, I do work full time so please be aware I will usually not be able to be with your pet full time on weekdays. I can still do house sits for pets that do not need regular walks/toilet breaks. I am available most weekends and bank holidays and would love to keep your pet company while you enjoy a holiday! I know it can be strange for pets to be away from you so I am dedicated to keeping life as normal and relaxed for them as possible by following their normal routine in their own home. I hope to work with you to follow whatever exercise routine is best for your pup; whether they enjoy high energy exercise or prefer to just have a potter round the garden.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Shropshire. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.
