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.
“Jirka has been dogsitting for us for ages, and he is always amazing. He often pops by on very short notice, he's great with our slightly anxious rescue dog, and really communicative! Can't recommend highly enough”


About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, from raising my own to helping family and friends. I am patient, reliable, and attentive. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality through walks, play, and companionship. I currently work full time, but I have flexibility for daytime walks or quick check-ins. I’m also available most evenings and weekends for longer walks, pet care, or house sitting. I always follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I’ll make sure they get plenty of walks, attention and care, while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy.

About: I had a dog when I was really young for 12 years so I am very used to having them around me. I have looked after my family members 3 dogs and I have a puppy of my own. I am working part - time so I have a lot of time in the week to walk and look after your dogs. I absolutely love animals but dogs are my favourite. I will always keep your dog on a lead whenever I go for a walk and the places I will go I know very well and are safe.

About: What sets me apart is my calm and caring approach. I have experience with different pets, but I have always cared more for cats, which has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviour. I treat every animal with patience, respect, and genuine affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I organise my schedule to ensure cats receive consistent care, including feeding, litter tray cleaning, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible and reliable, and I make sure each visit is calm and unrushed, adapting to the cat’s routine and needs.

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.
“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.”

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - South Cambridgeshire
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!

Charlotte was very accommodating for when we were away. She sent photos and videos each visit and took time to play and give our two boys attention we wanted. Our two boys take a little bit of time to get use to new people but Charlotte’s kind and relaxed manner with them meant after a day or so they were enjoying cuddles from her. Very good communication too, answering text messages very quickly. Would recommend, thanks Charlotte!

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.

Rocio was exceptionally gentle with our cats and attentive to every detail throughout her care. Her approach towards them was genuinely warm, patient, and deeply caring, which immediately put us at ease. She clearly took the time to understand their needs and personalities, and we felt they were in very safe and loving hands. As this was our first cat-sitting experience in Cambridge, we couldn’t have asked for a more positive and reassuring one; thanks entirely to Rocio.
