About: I live in Cambridge with partner. We have two beautiful felines who bring much joy to our life. Love floofs in all shapes, colors and sizes. Happy to administer meds and indulge in play. We have been caring for cats for about six years now. Drop a line!
“Eli always looks after are kitties superbly - even when they insist on bringing poor little creatures into the house that she then has to deal with. Thank you so much! ”
About: I have lots of experience walking and sitting all ages sizes of dog (with a particular soft spot for spaniels!) as well as looking after cats. I'm a recent graduate, working part time and studying independently. I have plenty of free time and miss my pets at home. Until I can get my own, I'm very happy to sit for other people's cats and dogs. I have a large fenced yard, and I'm right by Grantchester meadows for walks. My home is pretty dog and cat-proofed, but we don't have a crate etc.
“Annabel was a super cat sittter. I came home to a completely chilled happy cat. And Annabel sent videos/photos throughout so i knew my cat was ok. She was super when she came for pre-sit visit too. Very friendly and pleasant”
About: My name is Eva, I'm 35 and I absolutely love dogs! I’ve got lots of experience over the years - walking and sitting dogs through Rover for over 6 years - please check out my reviews! And sadly, I recently lost my dog, a Norwich terrier that my family had from a puppy to her amazing 16.5 years so I understand just how much love and attention dogs need at every stage of life. Whether you’re looking for dog walking, drop-in visits, or sitting services, I’d be happy to help you. Dogs naturally gravitate towards me. I'm confident with dogs of all sizes and all ages. Very experienced with caring for senior dogs and cats, can administer medicine and always be gente with them. I also love taking care of puppies and young dogs! Every dog is unique and if it's necessary I always spend the extra time to earn the dog's trust and make it comfortable with a new person. I also sponsor a guide dog in training through Guide Dog's UK for the past 3 years. Security is important. I understand very well how to handle a dog while walking on the street and busy areas with traffic, people, other dogs and everything that can possibly distract the dog. I also know how owners of small breeds feel when seeing a huge dog coming up to them. I would be delighted to take your dog for a nice long walk, perhaps run a little bit in a park if it's full of energy or maybe a slow walk somewhere nice if it's a bit older or recovering..? Totally depends what your dog prefers :) If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks, Eva I am fairly available. I live in Trumpington so it's easy for me if you are from that area too but I have a bike so I can get around Cambridge easily. I am not allowed to keep dogs at my rental property for now. That's why I can only offer dogwalking or dogsitting at your property.
“Zoe looked after my boys wonderfully and was extremely caring and attentive to their needs. I got daily updates about them including pictures and descriptions and felt so well communicated with. Would highly recommend zoe for your pet care and will absolutely be booking again for future trips!”
“Emma provided an exceptional experience for my cat over a long weekend. She ensured my cat received her daily medication and captured stunning pictures that she updated me with after each visit. My cat was noticeably happy upon my return. I highly recommend Emma as a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Her dedication and attention to detail exceeded all expectations.”
“Gemma was great! Super efficient and punctual to look after my Johnny 😺 Sent me the pictures of them having fun, set the automatic feeder and gave me such peace of mind as I finished my holiday. Highly recommend her and will invite again! 5 stars ⭐”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life—having had my own since I was just one year old—so caring for them comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve also regularly looked after dogs for family and friends, gaining experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I offer reliable and caring dog walking and sitting services, making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well looked after. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I currently work part-time as a nanny three days a week, which gives me a flexible routine and the ability to check in on pets throughout the day. My split schedule allows me to offer reliable visits for feeding, walks, and companionship, ensuring your pets are well cared for even when you’re busy or away. I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs and provide consistent, dependable care you can trust. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure they have plenty of attention, companionship, and care while you’re away, always keeping their environment clean, calm, and familiar. I also respect your home, ensuring everything is left tidy and secure after each visit. My goal is to make your pet feel happy and stress-free, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in safe and caring hands.
“Larissa is a lovely young woman who made fast friends with my cat, Flash. She followed my instructions to the letter, including sending us adorable photos and videos on a regular basis. We came back home to find a calm, happy, well-feed kitty. We will definitely be using her again!”
“From the first few moments meeting Danuta, we felt at ease that our cats were in good hands. She was professional and caring of their personal needs. We were so impressed with the daily reports, cleaning & photos sent to us too! We will definitely use her service again when needed.”
“Jirka took great care of my cat through the drop in visits. He was quick and easy to communicate before and during the visit and also followed my cat’s care instructions. I would have him look after my cat again!”
About: Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of animals, each bringing unique experiences and joys. I’ve owned cats, whose independent yet affectionate nature taught me patience, and dogs, whose loyalty and energy made them delightful companions. My love for animals expanded to include bearded dragons, requiring careful attention to their reptilian needs, as well as fish, a gerbil, and birds, each adding their own charm. I’ve also raised chickens, enjoying their quirky personalities and the daily reward of fresh eggs. One of my most memorable moments was rescuing a robin, deepening my appreciation for wildlife and the bond between humans and animals. Pet care remains an important part of my life, even while balancing my current schedule at university. My cat, Coco, stays at my family home, where she’s well cared for, but I make it a priority to visit regularly. During these visits, I ensure her needs are met and spend quality time with her, strengthening our bond. These moments not only allow me to care for Coco but also provide a comforting break from university life, reminding me of the joy and grounding presence pets bring. When caring for pets in my own home or someone else’s, I prioritize their well-being and happiness, offering attentive and compassionate care tailored to their needs. I ensure they are fed on schedule with the appropriate diet, have clean living spaces, and receive plenty of interaction, whether that’s playtime, walks, or simply comforting companionship. I’m experienced with a range of animals, from cats and dogs to reptiles and birds, so I understand the unique care requirements of each species. Additionally, I’m attentive to their health, keeping an eye out for any changes in behavior or condition that might need attention. Whether it’s my own pet or someone else’s, I approach every animal with the same level of love and dedication, creating a safe and happy environment for them.
About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. With a strong background in animal health and wellbeing, I’m confident in administering medications, monitoring behavior, and providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Your pets will be treated like family—kept safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work Monday-Friday and am available on weekends, mornings and evenings during the week and can stay overnight in your home. I’m happy to walk dogs if we can discuss timings in advance around my current responsibilities. I don’t bring cats or dogs into my home as I have my own pets but happy to look after small animals in my home. Im happy to stay at your home.

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - South Cambridgeshire
We were concerned to leave our young cat alone for five days, but Rocio won her heart immediately, while also giving us reassurance that she was in good hands. She took extra care because of the heat wave. We got home to find everything in perfect order. Rocio is an excellent carer.
Sarah was fantastic with our 2 cats: she won them over very quickly and they seemed to really enjoy her care from the (numerous and great!) pictures she shared. She really went the extra mile and allowed us to be fully relaxed knowing our kitties were being looked after well. We absolutely recommend her!
Freya was wonderful! She cared for Muffin beautifully and kept us up-to-date on how he was doing with lots of photos. She even watered my plants which were looking thirsty in the warm weather! Muffin had a lovely time with her and we will definitely book in with Freya again in the future 🥰
Paloma did a fantastic job looking after my cats during the latest heat wave. She's very attentive and quick to respond to messages. Even my shy girl took to her quickly and she often hides behind the sofa when people she doesn't know come into the house. I'd highly recommend Paloma and will be using her services again.
We hired Lucia to look after our cat while we were away for a week. She was so thorough and attentive during her visits, and it was such a relief. She worked through the heatwave to make our cat as comfortable as possible and sent detailed reports every day. Our car very much enjoyed her company, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet companion!
This was a repeat booking with Annabel. My cat is always super chilled and unstressed when I come home, after she has been looked after by Annabel while i'm away. Annabel sends me regular updates and she can be relied on completely. This time she also applied some treatment to my cat, with no difficulties. Annabel looks after both cat and owner needs really well, I can highly recommend her cat sitting services.
From the first few moments meeting Danuta, we felt at ease that our cats were in good hands. She was professional and caring of their personal needs. We were so impressed with the daily reports, cleaning & photos sent to us too! We will definitely use her service again when needed.

There are 806 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in South Cambridgeshire. About 93% of South Cambridgeshire 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.
