“Wan Jeong was absolutely amazing with Marley during her two-week stay, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She took initiative when faced with unexpected situations and showed incredible understanding throughout. Wan Jeong was kind, generous, and thoughtful, and it was clear she genuinely cared about Marley’s wellbeing. Marley was truly pampered and treated like part of the family. Wan Jeong kept me well updated, which gave me complete peace of mind, and Marley came home relaxed, happy, and settled. I’m extremely grateful for everything Wan Jeong did and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional and loving care for their dog.”
“We had full confidence in Stephen to look after our two dogs. He was warm and welcoming and kept us in the loop throughout our time away. We’ll be booking with Stephen again.”
“We have had several sitters from Rover and have been very pleased with them all. This was a fairly last minute request to board our pup Ziggy for 4 days. So lucky to find Jamie and Cara. 100% + recommendation on every aspect from prompt booking communications, arrangement to have an initial meet and greet walk together with them and their lovely friendly dog Jarvis; thorough prep arrangements for Ziggys stay; great and frequent photos and messages, all very reassuring for us. Most important of all our dog Ziggy had a wonderful time as part of their family, he was happy and relaxed and came home content. Do not hesitate to book with Jamie, perfect Rover hosts. Thanks so much Jamie and Cara.”
“Rebecca did a great job of looking after Alfie for us while we were on holiday. Everything was straight forward and Alfie was warmly welcomed and cared for. It was great to be able to leave him in such capable hands. Would definitely recommend Rebecca and ask for her help again in the future. Thanks Rebecca.”
“Isabelle is a devoted dog boarder. Trigger, my sensitive Vizsla, was made to feel so very welcome. Trigger stayed with Isabelle for 2 nights and he was allowed to sleep in/on her bed with him. Trigger had a wonderful relaxed stay. I was kept updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have no worries about leaving Trig with Isabelle. Will definitely be going back!”
“Pepper and Caspers first stay with Dean and they had a great time it was brilliant to get the frequent updates through as it was their first time staying with someone they didn’t know!”
“Caterina is a very lovely and kind person. I felt straight away very comfortable leaving our dog Lexy with her. Her little pug is adorable and gave Lexy confidence whilst staying with them. Thanks again for looking after Lexy, she had the best time with you guys 💛”
About: Dogs think I'm their new best friend. Cats eventually decide I'm acceptable. Either way, your pets get plenty of care, attention, playtime and updates while you are away. I grew up with my doggie, Fudge. She would sit on my lap in the pram, deal with being dressed as a princess through my childhood and be the fur I cried into during the dreadful teenage years! Animals make our lives and we make theirs. Thats why as a sitter I treat your animal like they are my own childhood pup, providing love, adventure and time when you can't. I am a professional harpist so my day involves practicing my music and giving your pet lots of attention and love. My days are incredibly flexible so I can cater them to what your pet needs. I have a large paddock with lots of space for Zoomies, as well as a fenced off smaller garden to keep your pets safe. I live fairly rurally in the beautiful Kent countryside and I'm close to the beach if your doggie loves a swim!
“It was the first time Charlie stayed away from home and it was a success. Robert is a kind and calm person who made Charlie to relax straight away. She came back calm and happy after 2 nights stay.”
About: I’ve always had dogs within the family and look after my friends dogs a few times a year including boarding and staying within my property I work full time from home other than on Wednesdays where the morning is from the office so can be available at any time within this remit I have a gated courtyard to my building but am down the road from the beach/shore so walks and toilet breaks are ample and generous
“Amanda did a great job looking after our 8 month old puppy. When we arrived she was warm, calm and professional which gave us total confidence Otto was in safe hands. Otto clearly had a lovely time! We would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone.”
“Jazz is wonderfully down-to-earth, and her experience, attentiveness, and genuine care are clear from the moment you meet her. We were initially anxious, as Murphy had only ever stayed with family before, but she looked after him so well that he didn’t seem to miss us at all. As this was a first meet, we were offered a meet-and-greet prior to booking which was a great way to have our dog get a feel for the environment beforehand. She followed his routine closely and kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which made a huge difference in putting our minds at ease. It’s such a relief to know we can leave Murphy in a safe, loving home environment. We highly recommend Jazz to anyone looking for dog boarding. Thanks again Jazz, we look forward to next time!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have had a cat throughout my life, so animals have always been a bit part of my life. My grandparents also used to regularly dog-sit, which meant that I grew up around lots of different dogs and loved caring for them. I’m a genuine animal lover and would treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m responsible, patient and attentive, and would love the opportunity to care for your pets. I’ve recently completed my BSc in Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation, so I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. My degree has developed my responsibility, attention to detail, and understanding of health and wellbeing, all of which I feel are valuable when caring for animals. I’m available throughout the week and at the weekends and am happy to work around your pets usual routine. I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly cat at home, and am used to having animals around. I’ll always take the time to understand your pets individual routine, personality, and will follow any instructions you provide carefully. Your pets safety and wellbeing will always be my priority, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, care and affection while they’re with me.
“I recently booked an overnight stay for my boy Tate, and it was his very first night away from us. Although there were a few challenges from him, the communication throughout was excellent and really put us at ease. She treated Tate like an absolute king Lab, patient, caring, and completely dedicated to making him comfortable. It was clear he was in safe, loving hands. I didn’t hesitate to book back in, and I’m genuinely grateful for the kindness you and your family showed him. Highly recommended.”
About: Throughout my life we’ve always had dogs, cats and even reptiles- from Yorkshire terriers and beared dragons up to Boa constrictors and our current Rottweilers I’ve personally trained 4 Rottweilers (3 males 1 bitch) and had the pleasure of raising over 30 pups over the years. As with all big dogs it’s a short life and we’ve recently lost 3 of our 4 (13yrs, 12yrs and 11yrs) a great innings considering their life expectancy we lost our girl due to old age and two males due to cancer- Due to the incredible focus needed to have these breeds it’s given me and my partner great first hand experience of dealing with power, reactive behaviour and general big dog issues. We swear and live by proactive measures ensuring that we avoid tense situations and all cost and do all teaching via reinforcement and care. We spend all and every weekend exploring the uk countryside with Odin, so we’re looking to be able to care for dogs that fit into that lifestyle We live on a large boat, which is out of the water at the moment- we have safety nets and ramps set up so all areas are accessible and safe. Any dog staying with us overnight will have their own cabin onboard :)

“Just picked up Lola after a 5 day stay with Natalia. This was her second stay and again she was a very happy girl. She had 3 walks a day and loved to play ball. Natalia kept us updated and frequently sent pictures that were very reassuring. Next time Lola will have a longer stay. Highly recommended.”

About: Calm, home-from-home dog boarding by the beach 🐾 I offer a relaxed, loving environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family. Living right by the beach means plenty of fresh air, walks, and a calm routine — it’s like a little holiday for them while you’re away. I keep things small and personal, usually caring for just one dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, consistency, and a stress-free environment, which works especially well for more sensitive or excitable dogs. I’m experienced with a range of temperaments, including puppies and high-energy dogs, and I’m confident following your routines — whether that’s feeding, training, or medication. Owners often say they feel completely at ease knowing their dog is in safe hands, and I always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax while you’re away. I work part-time, so I have lots of flexibility for walks, playtime, and company throughout the day. I’m active and out walking daily, making sure your dog gets a good balance of exercise and downtime. I’m always happy to accommodate your dog’s usual routine and sleeping arrangements to help them settle in comfortably. I'm currently working part time so I've got lots of time to walk/ play with your pup. I'm very active and walk/run daily. I can be available most weekends also and daytimes too. I don't have a crate at home but we're happy to have your pet sleep in the living room (on the couch if prerable). Happy to accommodate any need

“As always Charlotte was great and I felt very relaxed leaving Cherry my cat in her care especially good for me as I am such a worry wort. Got regular pictures and updates and came home to a very happy relaxed cat. Thank you Charlotte ”
“Fern was amazing, I have 2 cats one that's elderly and a baby who is very shy and skittish. Fern managed to bond with both and get the baby to have a snuggle. I received numerous videos and pictures of the girls which put me at ease. I had actually messed up the booking and Fern was great at changing and attending though the days were different from what was booked. Can recommend her highly enough.”

Faith responded immediately to a much needed and very last minute request, which saved the day for me and Morpheus.

It really helped us out; your communications and organisation of timings etc all superb. So delighted to have found such a wonderfully relaxed and caring home from home for our pup Ziggy.

About: I am originally from North Yorkshire and have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life; my first being a Labrador called Shawkie and a Shetland Sheepdog called Pepper. Since then, I have grown up with Border Collies and shorthaired cats. I have since moved to Kent, and I now have my own cat named Nova, who I have had since she was 11 weeks old.

Being a Zoo Keeper means I have had several years of training in animal care and safety as well as dog and cat specific care from working at a kennels. I have been trained previously in the administration of medication both oral and injections from a licensed vet while working as a Zoo Keeper so I am able to comfortably meet any care requirements you may have.

I’m currently full time at home! My husband works from home and my children now attend school full time. I have so much spare time and would absolutely love to start caring for pets! I do have a 1year old male Shih Tzu ! He is absolutely adorable! He is my best friend. He is so good with other dogs and cats. Walking is in our daily routine. I ensure he gets plenty of fun walks having fun in the mud! I understand how to deal with behavioural issues with dogs. I’ve always had dogs and been around dogs since my childhood. I can confidently deal with their meals and toileting. Trained all my pet dogs. Although I haven’t had cats as a pet. My sister and mum owns a cat. I’m good around cats and understand their mentality and know when to give them their space! I have a large garden front and back. My back garden is fenced and absolutely no way out for escape. My home is my pride. I live in a clean new build 4 bedroom spaced home. There is a massive green space surrounding my home so walking is absolutely priority and easy!
About: I’ve taken care of animals for many years as I grew up on a farm. I grew up with puppies and dogs and know how to look after them. I’ve had experience working with dogs in a groomers and know how to handle them properly. I’m currently full time dental student at the University of Plymouth but have plenty of free time whilst being home for summer and regular walks! I have a fenced off garden and live near a park for plenty of walks, I live with other housemates who are also like me big animal lovers
About: I’ve spent the last 6+ years helping to care for my dad’s gorgeous cocker spaniel, who I absolutely love taking out for walks and spending time with. Looking after him has given me lots of hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, and making sure dogs feel happy and comfortable! I also regularly take care of my cousin’s cat, which I really enjoy. I’m a huge animal lover and genuinely love spending time with pets, giving them plenty of attention, care, and affection. I am currently job hunting so have plenty of availability and can be very flexible! Happy to do day time, early mornings, late evenings & weekends - anywhere you need the help! I have a fenced garden and plenty of room for your dog, I also live super close to the local park for lots of walks!
About: I’m a calm, reliable, and patient dog walker who builds trust quickly with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. My priority is always to make every walk safe, relaxed, and tailored to each dog’s personality, energy levels, and individual needs. With four years of experience caring for and walking dogs, I particularly enjoy taking them out into nature. I prefer longer, enriching countryside and woodland walks where dogs can freely explore, sniff, and burn off energy in a stimulating natural environment. I often forage for mushrooms along the way, which makes each walk feel like a proper outdoor adventure. I’ll also often take photos during our walks so you can see what we’ve been up to! I’ve recently started my own business that gives me flexibility with how I structure my day and week. Much of my work naturally involves spending time outdoors and walking in nature, so incorporating dog walking into my routine feels like a perfect fit. Rather than walking alone, I can provide dogs with exercise, stimulation, and companionship while I’m already out exploring local countryside and green spaces. It allows me to combine productivity, wellbeing, and a genuine love of dogs into my daily routine. I would treat every pet as if they were my own, a member of the family. I would make sure they feel safe comfortable and well cared for while keeping to their usual routine and individual needs. Whether in my home or the owner’s home they would receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection and a high standard of care. I would also provideupdates so owners have peace of mind while their pet is with me.

“We have had several sitters from Rover and have been very pleased with them all. This was a fairly last minute request to board our pup Ziggy for 4 days. So lucky to find Jamie and Cara. 100% + recommendation on every aspect from prompt booking communications, arrangement to have an initial meet and greet walk together with them and their lovely friendly dog Jarvis; thorough prep arrangements for Ziggys stay; great and frequent photos and messages, all very reassuring for us. Most important of all our dog Ziggy had a wonderful time as part of their family, he was happy and relaxed and came home content. Do not hesitate to book with Jamie, perfect Rover hosts. Thanks so much Jamie and Cara.”
“Rebecca did a great job of looking after Alfie for us while we were on holiday. Everything was straight forward and Alfie was warmly welcomed and cared for. It was great to be able to leave him in such capable hands. Would definitely recommend Rebecca and ask for her help again in the future. Thanks Rebecca.”
“Isabelle is a devoted dog boarder. Trigger, my sensitive Vizsla, was made to feel so very welcome. Trigger stayed with Isabelle for 2 nights and he was allowed to sleep in/on her bed with him. Trigger had a wonderful relaxed stay. I was kept updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have no worries about leaving Trig with Isabelle. Will definitely be going back!”
“Pepper and Caspers first stay with Dean and they had a great time it was brilliant to get the frequent updates through as it was their first time staying with someone they didn’t know!”
About: I’ve always had dogs within the family and look after my friends dogs a few times a year including boarding and staying within my property I work full time from home other than on Wednesdays where the morning is from the office so can be available at any time within this remit I have a gated courtyard to my building but am down the road from the beach/shore so walks and toilet breaks are ample and generous
“Amanda did a great job looking after our 8 month old puppy. When we arrived she was warm, calm and professional which gave us total confidence Otto was in safe hands. Otto clearly had a lovely time! We would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone.”
“Jazz is wonderfully down-to-earth, and her experience, attentiveness, and genuine care are clear from the moment you meet her. We were initially anxious, as Murphy had only ever stayed with family before, but she looked after him so well that he didn’t seem to miss us at all. As this was a first meet, we were offered a meet-and-greet prior to booking which was a great way to have our dog get a feel for the environment beforehand. She followed his routine closely and kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which made a huge difference in putting our minds at ease. It’s such a relief to know we can leave Murphy in a safe, loving home environment. We highly recommend Jazz to anyone looking for dog boarding. Thanks again Jazz, we look forward to next time!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have had a cat throughout my life, so animals have always been a bit part of my life. My grandparents also used to regularly dog-sit, which meant that I grew up around lots of different dogs and loved caring for them. I’m a genuine animal lover and would treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m responsible, patient and attentive, and would love the opportunity to care for your pets. I’ve recently completed my BSc in Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation, so I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. My degree has developed my responsibility, attention to detail, and understanding of health and wellbeing, all of which I feel are valuable when caring for animals. I’m available throughout the week and at the weekends and am happy to work around your pets usual routine. I have a secure, fenced garden and a friendly cat at home, and am used to having animals around. I’ll always take the time to understand your pets individual routine, personality, and will follow any instructions you provide carefully. Your pets safety and wellbeing will always be my priority, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, care and affection while they’re with me.
“I recently booked an overnight stay for my boy Tate, and it was his very first night away from us. Although there were a few challenges from him, the communication throughout was excellent and really put us at ease. She treated Tate like an absolute king Lab, patient, caring, and completely dedicated to making him comfortable. It was clear he was in safe, loving hands. I didn’t hesitate to book back in, and I’m genuinely grateful for the kindness you and your family showed him. Highly recommended.”

“Just picked up Lola after a 5 day stay with Natalia. This was her second stay and again she was a very happy girl. She had 3 walks a day and loved to play ball. Natalia kept us updated and frequently sent pictures that were very reassuring. Next time Lola will have a longer stay. Highly recommended.”
