“Really pleased with Sally taking care of Ringo while we were away. She is such nice person that I didn’t get anxious even once while he was staying with her. Sally will be always my first choice when I need someone to be looking after my dog. Highly recommended”
“Ken looked after Malli for around 3 hours and did a wonderful job. He took her for a walk, kept her happy and comfortable, and it was clear she was well cared for. Malli seemed very relaxed and content when I picked her up. Ken is kind, attentive, and reliable — I felt confident leaving Malli with him. I would happily recommend him and would use his services again.”
“Im really please to have been able to book with Katharina, Luna seemed to enjoy her stay overnight. Katharina took really good care of Luna who managed to cut her leg a week before her stay. She sorted out Lunas medication, and was happy to deal with the agony of the cone of shame, so I am super grateful for the excellent care received this weekend. We will be very happy to use Katharina's services again! Thank you!”

About: Hello! I’m Milana and I’m excited to welcome your dog into my home, where they’ll get tons of love and playtime with my own dog Barley! My border collie is an absolute bundle of joy—he’s playful, loves meeting new friends, and can’t get enough cuddles. Hes 3.5 years old now and he’s a total social butterfly and loves having a furry buddy to hang out with. Whether they’re up for a game of fetch (a firm fav), some snuggles on the sofa, or just exploring the outdoors, I’m here to make sure they have a tail-wagging good time. Growing up with a small Lhasa Apso and a big Golden Retriever, I’ve always had dogs in my life and know how important it is to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved. My home is a perfect spot for your dog—spacious with a secure, private garden, and right opposite a canal with parks and woods nearby for all the walks and adventures they could dream of. I adore puppies so all are welcome and hopefully we can learn a trick or two! Senior friends are also loved who may prefer a warm cuddle on the sofa instead! I work from home, so your pup will get tons of attention all day long! I only take one booking at a time to ensure that your dog gets my full focus—And if you have more than one dog? That’s even better! I'd love to have a pack of furry friends here, but I only take one client at a time to make sure each pup gets all the care and affection they deserve. Whether your dog is all about playtime or prefers to just chill and snuggle, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and have a fantastic time while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so have the flexibility to look after your dog as and when suits your needs which also includes weekends and early drop offs/late pick ups I have a large spacious home with a spacious back garden thats fully fenced and locked. Opposite my home is a long canal walk as well as the woods for any longer adventures. I am also a 2 min drive away from the local vets for any emergencies
“I am so happy to have found Beverley to look after Coco. I felt reassured that Coco was happy and settled with Beverley and knew that she would do what was needed to ensure Coco felt at ease in her home. I highly recommend Beverley.”
“They were absolutely wonderful with my dog. I received regular updates with photos, videos, and detailed information, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that they took excellent care of my dog and treated them with genuine love and attention. I would highly recommend their boarding services.”
“Erin and Robbie were fantastic with Nara! They looked after her while we were visiting friends in the area and provided great care and walkies for Nara. Would definitely use again if they would have Nara again! 😁”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life & owned them personally. My dog, Liam, was my best friend and emotional support animal whom passed away May in 2025. I still have his sister, Molly, & together we are tackling life head on! I have always enjoyed sitting as a hobby. I love animals and dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I work full time from home meaning I am available to actually be present with your pet all day, every day, with minimal times unsupervised. I have a yard & a regular walking route as well that includes a large field area & sticks close to home. Visitors to our home have the safe privileges as our sweet girl Molly does. I don’t mind dogs on the furniture or beds. Owners can expect the same care and love I give mine to be extended to their fur children.
About: From a young age growing up in Africa I've always had a passion and love for animals. I've always wanted to work with animals and study them. I have years of experience with smaller breeds, elderley and rescue and I've always treated my dogs like my children and play with them just as much, especially hide and seek. My mother, that lives locally is also a dog sitter on Rover so I am familiar with the process and care of animals. I have two papillions that love to socialise and large enclosed garden with a doggy splash pool for them to play all day. I very much enjoy being surrounded by my animals and if I had the space would love to have a rescue one day. I have always been a dog sitter for family and friends and would love the opportunity to offer a loving home away from home to others beloved companions aswell now that my children are at school full time. My children are well educated in the safety of animals, they understand how gentle they need to be with dogs, especially the smaller breeds and they do hope to study zoology in the future and have careers working with animals. I have never left my dogs in a kennel when I've been away on holiday and sought out the very best dog sitters, so I feel that I can offer a warm and loving home for your dog while you are away, a cosy spot by the fire in winter and great outdoor space with a doggy pool to cool off in summer. I feel I've always been somewhat of an 'Ace Ventura' at heart and have been drawn to animals my entire life, my dream was to live in a reserve and be apart of animal rescue whether they are reptile, walk on all fours or swim. I also have experience with extremely nervous rescue dogs both large and small breeds, assisted in dogs birthing, (my first dog had a litter of 5), and bottle feeding, weaning and I have the privilege of spending time in large cats santury for a taste of the wild and play with lion cubs. I do not book more than 2 dogs at a time and only book 1 dog for overnight boarding to ensure your companion gets love, care and attention they deserve. Happy to do drop ins for up to 3 dogs in your family home. I adhere to quality not quantity, I do this because I love animals, love studying them and gaining their trust and love. I offer a dog sitting service for toy breeds, small and medium sized dogs, I treat train my dogs with lots of enthusiasm and encourage lots of play time outside. There is a fenced third of an acre of grassed garden area for the dogs to enjoy, I have a dog room seperated from the kitchen for dogs that are nervous or prefer a quieter environment also with a seperate outdoor enclosed patio area to toilet, away from the other dogs. My two children are over seven years and experienced with x small dogs, delicate breeds and elderly dogs aswell. I have 20years of experience with senior dogs, and dogs with medical issues. I can offer elderly dogs a ride in a soft blanked trolley if they struggle to walk, more treats and softer cuddles, mini massage for those achy muscles and lots of praise and the extra attention they deserve. I also have dog steps for the dogs that struggle to climb or can no longer jump. I can help with new puppies that are still with mum with feeding and weaning and sit with them if you just need to sleep or run errands as I have experience with breeding aswell. I offer carry walks for toy dog breeds and puppies that get tired often or they can be secured in the offroad blanketed trolley or a doggy sling. I do only offer 1 dog overnight boarding. Drop Ins - happy to have them at my own home if you need to pop out or pop into your home for the visit. No minimum stay required. Experienced with nervous rescue dogs, and aggressive dogs. I have a large enclosed garden and two papillions for company, my front door has an inside secondary door for an extra safety measure. I would preferably offer pet sitting services to dogs that are small and medium in size as my own are so small unless its drop in services in which case I am happy to drop in for larger breeds and other pets too! I am very familiar with puppies, training weaning bottle feeding and birthing aswell. It is important to me that your dog trusts me and enjoys our time together, whether it be a drop in or overnight. I am happy for your dog to be crated overnight, or sleep in my room on the bed. I have alot of space for your dog to run wild in our enclosed garden and splash around in our doggy pop up pool in the summer and a seperated patio area if they need a quieter space all with locked gates. I am a freelance photographer so with your permission will be taking lots of photos of your dogs. I do offer lots of carry cuddles for small puppies and senior small dogs that need that extra bit of time to rest. I use a doggy sling to carry them around with me so they get fresh air and smells of a walk. For larger senior dogs that still want to go for walks I can secure them into my offroad trolley and let them enjoy the ride. For senior dogs, they get loved more, praised louder and extra special attention be they absolutely deserve it, I also have some experience with very scared rescue and aggressive dogs, I dont scare easily and woukd instead find a way to get your dog to trust me.
“Philippa was absolutely wonderful! Chester felt right at home. She’s super accomodating and very kind. Jet is also a lovely pup and they seemed to have gotten on well. Thanks again Philippa for going out of your way to help us.”

About: We have had Jet our Weimaraner for 6 years and know the importance of having a safe and secure boarding home when away. I’ve had Jet since she was a puppy and Dan has had dogs all of his life. I’ve also looked after multiple dogs for my friends ranging from terriers through to German Shepherds and Pointers. Jet loves having extra friends to play with and we want to be able to give back to the Rover community who have been great for us. Your pup will be treated like one of our own during their stay. Dan works in a shift pattern and I’m home every weekend therefore we will be in all day during their stay. We offer long countryside walks, lots of cuddles and daily updates. Your pup will be kept company by Jet and will have a fenced garden to play in when it’s sunny and a sofa to snuggle on when it’s rainy and when not out on walks. We have a crate available if that is needed for any continuity of training.

About: Growing up in a home full of animals, caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve shared my world with cats, dogs, hamsters, and a whole assortment of small furry companions. Today, I have two much‑loved cats who rule the household. Because I’ve lived with animals my entire life, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets.

My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed and cared for while you’re away - and to give you peace of mind with regular updates and photos. Your cats will be treated with the same love and respect I give my own.

About: I’ve worked in kennels for over 5 years. Working closely with dogs ranging from chihuahuas to mastiffs. I have also been training and working with dogs who have anxious tendencies to those who are aggressive, for 4 years. This is all done with the extra help of toys, treats, praise and sometimes essential oils. I am now only available on weekends Friday through to Sunday unless booked in advance! This means weekly walks, dog sits or drop ins are available. I can walk your dog on whichever lead or harness you are comfortable with me using and will ensure to keep an eye on them at all times. I will only walk them off lead if approved by owner and in a safe environment to do so.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have been caring for animals my whole life. My mum is a veterinary nurse, so I’ve always been surrounded by animals and have developed a strong understanding of their needs and behaviours.

I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. I’m very flexible and available for bookings, and can be reliable with my time and routine! 🙂 I’m currently on maternity leave, so have plenty of free time and can be flexible & accommodating to your pets needs whether it’s a one time or regular booking. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits in your home, so your pet can stay happy and relaxed in their own environment.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs and cats. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s administering medication, supporting mobility in older pets, or reinforcing basic training for younger ones. I’m also comfortable with pets that may be shy, anxious, or have special dietary or behavioral needs. In addition to my experience, I prioritize building trust with both pets and their owners. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every animal like they’re my own—providing a calm, loving environment while you’re away. Whether it’s keeping up with playtime, maintaining routines, or giving extra cuddles, I go above and beyond to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Whether it’s early morning walks, mealtime routines, play sessions, or quiet time for companionship, I structure my day around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I’m flexible and able to accommodate specific schedules, including administering medications or keeping up with training consistency. Because I don’t treat pet sitting as a side task but as a core part of my lifestyle, I’m fully present and engaged when caring for animals. I check in regularly, provide updates, and make sure each pet feels secure and loved while their family is away. Pet care is more than a job to me—it’s part of who I am. When caring for pets in a pet owner’s home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to minimize stress and help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as provided. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly space with plenty of attention, affection, and stimulation. I only accept a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one gets personalized care and never feels overwhelmed. Whether it’s a quiet nap spot, a fenced-in yard for playtime, or simply extra cuddles on the couch, I tailor the environment to meet your pet’s individual needs. No matter the setting, my goal is to provide loving, attentive care so your pet feels right at home—even when they’re not.
“Michael did a fantastic job, and Blue loved his first-ever doggy daycare. The process was very easy, and Michael was very helpful throughout. Blue was well walked, fed, and worn out playing with Buddy. He was a very happy and tired blue who clearly had a great day. I can't recommend Michael highly enough. Fantastic service.”
“Milana is a perfect sitter! Milana, her partner and Barley welcomed Bruce in and he looked to have a great day! They agreed to help out very last minute and saved the day for me - will absolutely look to book again in future 😊”

Jet loves having extra friends to play with and we want to be able to give back to the Rover community who have been great for us. Your pup will be treated like one of our own during their stay. Dan works in a shift pattern and I’m home every weekend therefore we will be in all day during their stay. We offer long countryside walks, lots of cuddles and daily updates. Your pup will be kept company by Jet and will have a fenced garden to play in when it’s sunny and a sofa to snuggle on when it’s rainy and when not out on walks. We have a crate available if that is needed for any continuity of training.
“Thanks so much, Grant, for stepping in to walk Wally at such short notice. He’s absolutely worn out now and has been napping ever since you brought him back—great job! Really appreciate your help.”
About: I have been a dog walker for two years, I have 3 dogs of my own and I have pet first aid training. Two of my dogs are rescues so I do have experience with them. I am a full time dog walker, I tend to work 5-7 days a week so am usually available over the weekends to help. I have a van with four cages inside to transport the dogs safely to a walking destination. Each cage is large enough to fit a big dog or two smaller dogs.
About: Since i was a baby I've grown up around many different kinds of animals, as well as being raised in a 4 cat, 1 dog household until i was 15. I dealt with high energy pets. I was also often left in charge of my cousins cocker spaniel, for long periods of time, where my requirements were to walk, feed a special diet, and play with for multiple hours in a day, sometimes more than a few days back to back. Over time i learned to adjust my care to suit my pets ages, my Yorkshire terrier has had asthma and a collapsed trachea for most of her life, i understand how to care for a dog with health issues along with cats, my senior 18 year old Bengal has many of her own health issues and needs special accommodation for her separation anxiety and dietary requirements. I am well versed on giving medications in various forms, and I'm not afraid to provide these to bigger dogs. Along with this, i have previously helped my own sister with her professional dog sitting for the past year when she's needed extra support for bigger dogs or fuller households, though i am able to manage this task on my own too. I currently don't work, so my schedule is completely open, and I'm more than happy to dedicate as much time as you need to accommodate your pets! Anything that may take a lot of time in a week is the perfect fit for me, i love spending time getting to know and understand your animals. I have a very private garden that backs onto other gardens, separated by a fence, and fitted for all dogs. I have fake grass which highly reduces the chance of ticks especially at this time of year, and it is located in a quiet neighborhood with no noisy traffic or noise during the day or especially at night. I have a larger open house, big enough for larger dogs to roam around and explore! My neighborhood is quiet and rather large, with many various places to walk dogs.

“Alisia has been such a huge help these past few days we've been in our new house and managed to make arrangements at very short notice to walk our dog Luna during workdays we couldn't be here. She was very quick to respond to my request, easy to communicate with from start to finish and provided updates on each of the walks. We would highly recommend her to anybody!”
“Ellie is friendly, reliable, and great at communication. My dog is usually nervous around new people, but absolutely loves her. Already booked again and will continue to use her services.”
“Michael immediately built a rapport with the dogs and is walking the lab off lead from the first walk. I trust Michael with our dogs and they seem to have a great time which is great! I’ll be using Michael lots 😊”

“Im really please to have been able to book with Katharina, Luna seemed to enjoy her stay overnight. Katharina took really good care of Luna who managed to cut her leg a week before her stay. She sorted out Lunas medication, and was happy to deal with the agony of the cone of shame, so I am super grateful for the excellent care received this weekend. We will be very happy to use Katharina's services again! Thank you!”
“Bugsy had a great stay with Millie, giving us peace of mind. He was able to relax and Millie took him for stimulating walks close to home. Very happy and have booked again.”

About: Hello! I’m Milana and I’m excited to welcome your dog into my home, where they’ll get tons of love and playtime with my own dog Barley! My border collie is an absolute bundle of joy—he’s playful, loves meeting new friends, and can’t get enough cuddles. Hes 3.5 years old now and he’s a total social butterfly and loves having a furry buddy to hang out with. Whether they’re up for a game of fetch (a firm fav), some snuggles on the sofa, or just exploring the outdoors, I’m here to make sure they have a tail-wagging good time. Growing up with a small Lhasa Apso and a big Golden Retriever, I’ve always had dogs in my life and know how important it is to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved. My home is a perfect spot for your dog—spacious with a secure, private garden, and right opposite a canal with parks and woods nearby for all the walks and adventures they could dream of. I adore puppies so all are welcome and hopefully we can learn a trick or two! Senior friends are also loved who may prefer a warm cuddle on the sofa instead! I work from home, so your pup will get tons of attention all day long! I only take one booking at a time to ensure that your dog gets my full focus—And if you have more than one dog? That’s even better! I'd love to have a pack of furry friends here, but I only take one client at a time to make sure each pup gets all the care and affection they deserve. Whether your dog is all about playtime or prefers to just chill and snuggle, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and have a fantastic time while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so have the flexibility to look after your dog as and when suits your needs which also includes weekends and early drop offs/late pick ups I have a large spacious home with a spacious back garden thats fully fenced and locked. Opposite my home is a long canal walk as well as the woods for any longer adventures. I am also a 2 min drive away from the local vets for any emergencies
“Philippa was absolutely wonderful! Chester felt right at home. She’s super accomodating and very kind. Jet is also a lovely pup and they seemed to have gotten on well. Thanks again Philippa for going out of your way to help us.”
About: I am 37 years old and have personally had cats and dogs for over 20 years and taken care of many dogs for friends and family when they have been away or busy with work. Every single one, from the Labradors to the Newfoundland, it has been a pleasure. I find all animals are a joy to be with and I thoroughly enjoy training them and playing with them. I enjoy finding ways to keep their minds active, as it benefits them greatly with their obedience and helps them rest. I recently lost my beautiful labrador friends, and currently have two smaller dogs, who are very friendly and get on well with other dogs and are very obedient. I take it upon myself to learn new ways to care for and train dogs, it is a huge interest of mine. On a personal level, I have previously worked with the Police and volunteered for the Ambulance service. I have a completely clear enhanced DBS check. I have undertaken a pet first aid course to ensure I am able to deal with any emergency that may arise. I am happy working with all breeds of dog, and have experience with high-energy working dogs too, such as Malinois, but would need to know of any issues to be sure I can cater for it. Happy to train dogs whilst walking/sitting as well, but would need to know the issues prior. I have experience working with dogs that are nervous or scared of specific things, as well as experience of dogs that pull when walking, and/or can be aggressive towards others. I will only ever work with one client at a time and never take multiple jobs at once. This ensures peace of mind that your dog would have my full attention and there should be no conflict with other unknown dogs. Please ensure that you are happy paying me through Rover before booking. I’m currently working for myself in IT which gives me the flexibility to work different hours and enables me to be able to walk and play with dogs when needed to help others. I will have a discussion with you about what you would prefer for your pet, and any specific needs. I will always endeavour to meet your needs/requirements where possible and I will always look after your property.
“Elvis looked like he had such an amazing time! We had constant updates (pictures & videos), if we had any questions or concerns Callum is very quick at responding! Can be quite daunting leaving your pup with strangers but felt at ease straight away, with the contact throughout it made it so much more comfortable knowing Elvis was being cared for in the best way possible, did not have to worry at all! When I picked Elvis up he tried to run back in their house twice so that’s obviously a great sign, he actually looked sad to be leaving! 🤣 Highly recommend Callum and Casey - will be 100% returning for more doggy boarding visits! 🤍”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Charlotte gave my beloved Dolly. Dolly usually never leaves my side, so I was naturally a little nervous about leaving her, but from the moment she arrived, it was clear she was in safe and loving hands. Charlotte kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Judging by the pictures (and Dolly’s reluctance to leave), I think it’s safe to say she had more of a holiday than a pet-sit! The warmth, care, and attention Charlotte gave was truly wonderful, and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Dolly with her again. Highly recommend to any pet owner looking for someone who genuinely treats your dog like one of their own. Thank you, Charlotte!”
“Jess had a lovely time staying with Eve and Ryan. They treated her as their own, with lots of fuss and cuddles and made sure they kept to her routine. Their home and garden is beautiful and completely safe for dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to look after your dog”
“Kia was amazing, as she has been with every other time we've left our nervous dog with her. I almost don't want to leave a good review because she'll be less likely to be available! Between her and and Aiden they're fantastic dog sitters, your pets will be well looked after.”
“Gill was amazing with Poppy, and the whole process was effortless from the initial visit through to drop-off and pick-up. She sent us regular updates and plenty of photos, which we really appreciated. Poppy clearly had a great time as she didn’t look like she wanted to leave, and when we got home she slept all day and evening, showing she’d been well exercised. We would highly recommend Gill as a dog sitter and will definitely be using her again.”
“Another fantastic stay for Cosmo. Hannah and Jack are hands down the best dog sitters out there! They are so attentive it really puts our mind at ease when away and Cosmo simply doesn’t want to leave! D&T We cant wait to book again. Written by Cosmo*”
“Thank you so much for having Skylar, we could see how well she was looked after, she was relaxed and happy and had a great time playing with Eric. Will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Florence our bearded collie spent a lovely day with Beth and Miles. She went out for walks and was made to feel very much at home during her stay and we received lovely photos during the day, Big thanks to Beth and Miles, Florence is already planning her next visit”

Doggies are welcome to roam about the house and garden (it’s fenced in). We typically do morning walks with plenty of countryside surrounding us we can accommodate on and off lead walks. Sleeping arrangements can be flexible, we have plenty of space around the house for extra beds / crates depending on your doggies preference
