About: Professional Summary Passionate and reliable dog sitter with a lifelong love for animals. Having grown up with pets since childhood, I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand their daily needs, behaviours, and routines. I have also volunteered in my home country, supporting the care and welfare of stray dogs and cats through local NGO initiatives and community animal welfare activities. Dedicated to providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care, I prioritise every pet’s comfort, happiness, and well-being while ensuring owners have complete peace of mind. I have experience of tricking stubborn pets to eat food and take necessary medicines. I work full-time as a Data Quality Analyst, but I have evenings, weekends, and selected weekdays available for pet care. I always make time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and personalised attention, ensuring your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets receive constant supervision, plenty of affection, and patient, gentle care, just like they would at home.

“Tao was lovely and very attentive looking after our frenchie for a week. We knew he was in safe hands and was sent regular updates and lovely photos. Thank you so much x”
“Holly did an outstanding job looking after the House and my Dog. She showed great care and maturity with all things, sending pictures and keeping me up to date the whole time. She left the house clean and tidy and I would thoroughly and whole heartedly recommend her. So thank you Holly for a job well done.”
“Rebecca did a great job taking care of Hunter this past weekend. She’s very communicative. Set lots of photos and videos and gave Hunter all the love.. Highly recommended. I will book with Rebecca again in the future. Thank you!”
About: Hi I’m Dan living in Slough. I have lived with cats most of my life and I currently have a senior cat living with me who has diabetes so requires extensive care and injections. I drive so can travel locally and I am flexible as I work from home.
About: From a young age, I have had a strong interest in caring for and working with dogs. At the age of 11, I independently walked my Nana's Cavalier King Charles Spaniel both on and off the lead, helping to reinforce good behaviour through positive encouragement, treats, recall training, and simple tricks. I also regularly walked my neighbour’s Jack Russell growing up at the age of 14/15 each week, where I further developed my confidence handling dogs and enjoyed teaching basic tricks and commands. More recently, I have been volunteering to walk a large Labrador every week, which is something I get so much enjoyment from. I value the companionship, the opportunity to spend time outdoors on Sunday mornings, and the positive impact it has on both my physical and mental wellbeing while taking in the beautiful scenery and being at one with nature. I’m currently working part time , so I’ll have plenty of time to care and play with your dogs! I’m available for walking during the week and weekends as well as house sitting at weekends , feel free to message me and I’d be delighted to help whenever I can . I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner’s routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and house rules, to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I make sure pets stay entertained with walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection depending on their personality and energy level. I also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind. While house sitting, I treat every home with respect and care. I keep the home clean and secure, follow any instructions carefully, and make sure pets are supervised, safe, and comfortable at all times. Being a professional Nanny , I know how important it is to find the right person for your family and pet!
“Huge thank you to Katie. This was the first time i have tried to trust someone with my baby Thor. Katie is kind and has a lovely way about her and is clearly passionate and caring. Was on time, kept me updated throughout the day with pics and my dog was happy when I got home. He must have enjoyed himself , slept and enjoyed his time with Katie. It’s such a big thing firstly to trust someone with your fur baby but also to have someone in your house. I would highly recommend Katie and will definitely book again. Thank you!”
“So lovely, made sure to communicate with us with all news regarding Pluto and Pluto was very happy to have someone with him all day! Will definitely book Sameer again. Lovely guy, and made me feel at ease to be at work whilst the dog was at home!”
“Joanne was lovely from start to finish of our booking. As soon as I met Joanne I felt totally at ease about leaving George and Fleur with her and also in our home. Regular updates and pictures recieved, even a lovely card and treats left at the end of the stay, which was so kind. We would have no hesitation in having Joanne stay with George and Fleur again.”
“I was very pleased with Heather, she turned up on time and was here when I got back from my trip, and made me a cup, which was very welcome after a long drive. My cat was well looked after and my house was in good order. I couldn't ask for anything more. I will be using Heather again”
“Lauren stayed the night at my house to look after our kitten, and was absolutely fantastic. She went above and beyond in every category, even looking after her and cleaning up her upset tummy, far more than we ever expected. House was left in the same state as we left it and she even fed my fish, will definitely have Lauren back when we next go away. Thank you so much!”
“Jamie was absolutely brilliant! We left Toby and our house in his care for six nights and I think the dog was disappointed when we arrived home!! We were updated daily with pictures and details from their numerous walks and adventures, and Jamie even took the time to sort an ant problem that cropped up while we were away! He did a pre stay visit to meet Toby and get to know the house, and left it immaculately clean after his stay. There was no doubt Toby had a wonderful time in his care and we came home to a very relaxed dog! He was super charming and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Thank you Jamie!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since a young age and love them.I have got experience with all different Types of dogs and different breeds as well.I have also had time with younger dogs such as puppies.

About: For the entirity of my life I have known I want to have a job that involves working with animals. I have truly experienced so much when it comes to them, and I feel very fortunate to have had many of these experiences. On a trip to Venice when I was younger I helped the police catch a dog that was on the loose, to eventually return it to the owner. When visiting family in the Cayman Islands I helped out with rescuing and rehoming dogs who had been badly treated by their owners. During my Duke of Edinburgh I volunteered at the Tarbay Kennels and Cattery for 6 months which I then continued doing weekly for much longer because I loved being around the dogs. My love didn't stop here though, after I finished my GCSE's I decided to do a course in Animal Management (level 3 extended diploma) at Berkshire College of Agriculture which I completed with a DMM (Distinction Merit Merit). During this time I also went to South Africa to Volunteer with conservation work in the Kruger National park. I was also doing occasional dogsitting for a lovely family near Warfield while I was at college, which also turned into overnight housesitting sometimes. After returning from university I have decided that I would love to go back to working with animals and have been walking an elderly lab twice a week, which I absolutely love doing and look forward to every week! Finally I have 3 years of experience working in an exotic fish shop, so if you have a fish tank I can also take care of it while you are on holiday! I'm currently doing a lot of part time work which is mainly over the weekends so I have plenty of free time during the week! On weekends I am doing both bar work and serving tea and coffees at a pop up stand both at Reading Hockey Club. I like to fill up my week with plenty of different dog walks that keep me out and about so I will make time for you! For Dog Walking: I am very comfortable with walking dogs of all sorts and will keep them on the lead at all times unless you specify that they are fine to go off the lead. As a person who cares deeply about the environment, I would like to be within cycling range of your house and will not transport dogs anywhere in a vehicle. Because of this its ideal if you have a park or a green area within walking distance of your house for your dog/s to have the optimum experience. I prefer to use your equipment for dog walks as the dogs are more familiar with it and so will be more comfortable (this includes lead, harness (if required) and treats, and preferably poo bags too). Personally I hate mixing dogs with other dogs from different families so I will only walk multiple dogs if you have multiple dogs! For Dog Sitting: I have done a fair bit of dogsitting in the past but you will need to let me know different things about the dog/s, e.g. how often they need the toilet during the night or what time you like them to eat. I am very comfortable with giving your dog/s plenty of attention and enriching them with different activities! Final Note: I am not comfortable with caring for extremely brachycephalic dogs, e.g. Bulldogs & Pugs, as I do not agree with the ethics in breeding them.
About: I’ve been brought up around animals, from dogs, cats to guinea pigs and rabbits. I used to take my dog when he was a puppy to puppy training! I also helped with family members with the pets aswell. I’m a full time student - athlete who lives in a house with friends, who can meet your pet needs. My love for sport means they will have loads of exercise! I’ll make sure to treat your home with respect and care, making sure to keep it tidy and clean. I will also show the care and love to your pets as if they were my own. I am currently a student - athlete who has a flexible timetable. Because of this it means I can put my full priority and time into looking after your loving pets! I make sure to keep the pets active and give them the attention they need. Keeping them fed and there water fresh! Making sure to make sure they are fully tired from the exercise they will receive. Wagging tails guaranteed!
“Kelli took amazing care of our 4 dogs in our home for a week. She sent photos and videos every day. They were all so happy with her. She gave meds correctly walked them all played with them. She made them healthy meals and bought them treats. We highly recommend Kelli she went above and beyond what we asked of her to ensure all 4 dogs were very happy. She stuck to their routine and it was so reassuring to see the happy photos and videos she sent. Kelli is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Thank you so much Keliii! Lorraine & Greg”
“Catrin was fantastic with our dog Max and we felt very reassured to leave him with her for the night. Max absolutely loved her. She was very responsive, caring and patient. Would definitely book again!”

Extremely professional and attentive with my little dog and my home. Sameer stayed with my little dog for 7 days, and I felt completely at ease; I will definitely book him again. My little guy loved Sameer's company. Sameer took excellent care of my elderly 16-year-old dog.
We couldn’t be happier with the care Kirsty gave our cats, Poppy and Roo. From the moment we met her, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely caring she is. She treated Poppy and Roo as if they were her own, giving them so much love, attention, and comfort while we were away. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such safe and capable hands, and it really showed when we came home to two very happy, relaxed cats. We were extremely happy with Kirsty’s service and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional cat sitter. Thank you, Kirsty! 🐾💛
Lucy took great care of Pippin and our home during her stay. He can take some time to warm up to new people but seemed to settle in with her very quickly. We were glad to have him in such safe hands while we were away and would happily have Lucy stay with Pippin again!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Slough walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 Slough 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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
