“Shadia took such great care of our cockapoo, Rory! She was excellent at communicating before and throughout the booking - we got regular updates, photos, and videos which really put our minds at ease. Rory clearly had a fantastic time with Shadia’s lovely family and their sweet dog Skye. It was especially reassuring to know that Shadia was thoughtful and attentive during the heatwave, making sure Rory stayed safe and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Monica is a lovely, caring lady and looked after Elsa over night for me. Great communication, and Elsa enjoyed her stay. Can recommend and will trust Monica for another time.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives and we’ve both grown up around them. We regularly care for dogs for family and friends and have experience with a range of breeds, ages, sizes and personalities, including rescue dogs who may need extra patience, reassurance and individual care. Pet care fits naturally into our routine as I work from home Monday–Thursday, my toddler attends nursery during the day, and my husband works evenings, meaning dogs will have plenty of company, supervision, walks, playtime and cuddles throughout the day in a calm, loving family home environment. We live in a detached family home with a secure, fully enclosed garden where dogs can safely play and explore. We also have our friendly Cavachon, Theo, who loves other dogs, enjoys walks, naps and playtime, and is very gentle and sociable. Dogs staying with us would be treated as part of the family, with plenty of supervision, affection, exercise and care tailored to their individual needs in a calm, safe and loving environment.
“I was anxious about leaving my two dogs with Carmen for the weekend, but she offered to keep me updated by phone. On the Sunday morning she texted me to see if she could take the dogs to the beach - how great is that? A run and a swim on a boiling hot day, perfect! I am happy that they are booked in for Christmas as I know they will be well looked after. Thanks.”
“Wardah has been amazing with our elderly dog, Minu, who was clearly very comfortable with her. She recognised and accommodated Minu's needs perfectly. Communication was great, and we received lots of lovely updates throughout the stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Wardah again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Mabel recently stayed with Joanne and her family. I sent her packing (a little nervous due to it being my first rover) and with a million warnings about what she MIGHT do! 🤣 Turns out Mabel was an absolute dream so they must have been brilliant at looking after her. I had regular updates and pictures. Timings were sorted out easily and we kept in touch via Whatsapp. Joanne has a really secure garden - which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving her there. It felt like a home from home setting. I have two children of my own and Joanne's two seemed to love her as much as her own. They were super excited to have her. She was allowed upstairs and just slipped into their family life. She had plenty of walks and was fed well. I wouldn't hesitate at using Jo again! Thanks guys! 🐾🐾”
About: I’m new to Rover, but I’m not new to caring for dogs. I’ve had dogs in my life for 44 years and currently care for my own elderly dogs (Oscar (15) & Lucy (16)), both of whom have needed a lot of patience, routine and gentle handling as they’ve got older. Through them, I’ve gained real experience with senior dog care, sight loss, reduced hearing, medication routines, mobility issues, and understanding when a dog needs calm reassurance rather than too much fuss. I’ve also looked after puppies & dogs for friends and family, and I’m very comfortable following each dog’s normal routine closely. I know how important the little details are, from feeding times and medication to favourite blankies & toys, walking habits, nervous behaviours and the small things that help a dog feel calm and settled. I don’t think there’s anything quite like a dog. They are funny, loyal, gentle, soulful little creatures who somehow make the world feel better just by being in it. I genuinely believe dogs are one of the best things in life, and caring for them properly is something I take seriously. I work from home Monday to Friday and have a flexible schedule, so I’m around throughout the day for company, toilet breaks, feeding routines, walks and plenty of attention. I’m used to planning my day around dogs and their routines, including set meal times, medication needs, rest time and comfort. Walks can be fitted around my working day, including during my breaks or any walking meetings I have with my team. I am currently offering boarding in my own home, as my own dogs have a calm, steady routine and I’m always close by. I care for dogs in my own home, where I keep things calm, safe and settled. I have two elderly dogs myself, so my home is already built around a gentle routine, quiet care and close supervision. They mostly sleep now and are used to being around dogs from friends and family, including younger dogs, so the house is calm rather than busy. I’m very mindful of helping dogs feel comfortable, especially if they are older, nervous, have medical needs, or simply need a little time to settle in. I will always follow your instructions closely, including feeding routines, medication, walks, toilet breaks, sleeping arrangements and any house rules or quirks your dog may have. Every dog is different, so I’d want to understand what makes them feel safe and happy before they stay. Dogs in my care would have plenty of company throughout the day, as I work from home and am always around. They would not be left alone for long, usually no more than around 15 minutes if I needed to pop to the local shop.
“Our dog Lulu had a very enjoyable stay with Caroline. Caroline took great care of Lulu, and we would have no hesitation of asking Caroline to look after her again. Thoroughly recommended.”
“We recently had Kellie look after our dog for the first time, and we couldn't be happpier with the experience, We received regular updates and photos which reassured us that Peppa was not only safe but happy and well cared for. We will definitely be booking Kellie again highly recommended.”
“Laura took care of my cavapoo, who can be a little tricky, with absolute ease. It was great to meet ahead of the booking and sandy had a great time! I’ll definitely be in touch with Laura in future!”
“What a brilliant experience we had with Eleanor and Raymond. This was the first time we have left our very high energy, crazy Labrador over night and he absolutely loved it. Both Eleanor and Raymond were so good with him. They took time to understand his needs and make it the most positive experience. Nothing seemed to faze them and it's very easy to see how much they love having dogs around. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them and Rosso is looking forward to more adventures with them.”
“Charlie had a lovely time with Ananda. Lots of walks and cuddles. Sent us lots of videos. Would definitely recommend to others. Will definitely use again knowing he was happy and well looked after”
“Sydney provided an exceptional level of care while looking after our two dogs, Jock and Mia. From the outset, her communication was outstanding—she kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Jock and Mia were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and enjoying their time with her. Sydney’s warm, attentive, and caring nature truly shines through in the way she looks after animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. We are already looking forward to booking with Sydney again in the future.”
“Our dog (Cookie) really enjoyed herself staying with Murali and his family. Cookie is a very lively but very friendly GSD and settled with their own dog and another, especially playing chase around their large garden. We would have no hesitation in recommending this boarder to anyone.”
“Arija was very friendly and helpful working around our timings. She sent photos of Newton looking happy with a quick update confirming all ways good everyday. Newton said he had a great time and enjoyed being with them 🤣 Thank you Arija”
About: Hi, I’m Sophie! My partner George and I recently bought our first home in Eastleigh, and we’re both huge dog lovers. While our work commitments mean we can’t have a dog of our own right now, we’d love to help others by providing caring and reliable dog walking and sitting services. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, from a Border Collie to a Lhasa Apso/Yorkie mix, and now a lovely litte Poochon. I’m very used to grooming needs and making sure coats are well cared for. I also regularly help care for family dogs, including Labradors, so I’m confident with both small and large breeds. Having experienced every stage of a dog’s life, I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies as well as giving extra patience, attention, and love to older dogs. I work full-time across four days a week, which means I’m fully available on Tuesdays and weekends. On my days off, your dog will have my full attention. I’ll always stick to your routine and make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for—whether that’s during a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. I’m happy to provide as many walks as your dog needs, along with plenty of playtime and attention. They’ll also have access to a secure garden and a safe, dog-friendly home environment. I have a fully fenced, secure garden and plenty of lovely walking routes nearby. I’m also happy to take dogs out in the car for longer walks or new environments if they enjoy that. I always aim to follow your preferences and routine to make sure you feel completely comfortable. My home does have stairs, but these can be safely blocked off if needed. Dogs are welcome to settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. You’re very welcome to bring their bed, crate, blankets, or anything familiar from home. If your dog is used to cuddling up on the sofa, they’ll be more than welcome to do the same here!
“Sunny enjoyed her stay with Amanda and absolutely loved her walks with her too. I received an update each day on how she was getting on. We will definitely be booking some more future dates with Amanda. Thank you for taking such great care of Sunny.🐾🐾🐾”
“Romeo had a wonderful time with Lynn. I really appreciated the photos and updates that she sent me. I would highly recommend and would be happy for Romeo to stay with Lynn again.”

“Kate was absolutely brilliant with Billie. We were away for 4 nights and she followed instructions to a teacher. Billie can be quite an anxious cat but warmed to Kate well. Kate kept us well informed with lots of pictures, videos and messages to out us at ease. I absolutely would book her again and I'm sure Billie misses her too.”
“Barbara had another great week with Sandra! Sandra did a great job of looking after her and keeping us updated with photos and videos. Barbara enjoyed her visits and got lots of fuss and attention :)”
“Fantastic communication from the beginning. I felt Archie was in very safe hands. I received regular updates and he was looked after very well. I plan to book Abigail again”
“Excellent. Shadia and Timmy really bonded and bonded quickly. It was clear Timmy was looked after very well. We received regular and timely communication while we were away, and Shadia was very understanding when we had to have a friend drop Timmy off on short notice. We would definitely recommend to anyone needing cat care. Thank you Shadia.”
“I recommend Maria very highly! We have an older, very nervous rescue cat and we have never left her with a sitter before. We were quite anxious but Maria put our minds at rest from the start. Maria kept us up to date every visit with photos and videos. Our cat seemed really comfortable with Maria who clearly has a natural way with cats. I wouldnt hesitate to invite Maria to look after our cat again and can't recommend her highly enough!”
About: Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve always loved their unique personalities, independence, and companionship. Friends and family have regularly relied on me to care for their cats while they’ve been away, and I’m experienced with cats of all ages, from kittens through to seniors. I also cared for my own cat through pregnancy and helped raise her kittens, which gave me valuable hands-on experience with young cats and the extra care and attention they need. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for multiple cats with very different temperaments, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and allowing cats to feel comfortable in their own time. I’m happy caring for indoor or outdoor cats and can help with feeding, litter trays, medication, play, enrichment, grooming, and of course plenty of affection if your cat enjoys attention. I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away, so I always aim to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. As I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m available throughout the week and weekends for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting across Surrey and Hampshire. I also treat every home respectfully and always keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.
About: I grew up in a home that regularly rescued and cared for cats from a variety of backgrounds. This gave me early experience understanding different temperaments, personalities, and comfort levels — from shy or anxious rescue cats to confident and playful companions. I’m confident adapting my approach to each cat’s individual needs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment. I have also had my own cat for 2 years, so I fully understand the importance of routine, patience, and trust when it comes to cat care. As a pet owner myself, I know how reassuring it is to have someone reliable and attentive looking after your pet while you’re away.
“If you’re looking for a cat sitter, you don’t need to look any further - just go with Loz. It was our first time away, and when we got back they were both chilled and happy, which was such a relief. In every set of check-in photos, we could see they loved Loz, and it just made the trip so much easier knowing they were in good hands. Thank you so much for your help!!!”
“We cannot recommend Tennessee highly enough. She has, in a matter of days, become our cats' favourite person and she could not have looked after them better. The daily photos and videos she sent us while we were away showed two cats having the time of their lives playing, being given treats and cuddles. Would book in future without hesitation! 🧡”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and am very comfortable caring for all personalities, from independent to more sensitive cats. I currently live with four Maine Coons, so I’m used to larger breeds and multi-cat households. I focus on keeping things calm, clean, and consistent, and making sure each cat feels safe and comfortable in their own space.
About: I’ve lived with cats my entire life, so understanding their behaviour, moods, and routines comes very naturally to me. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all personalities — from affectionate and playful to shy and independent.
About: I've looked after a variety of animals since childhood, both my own and my neighbours. This includes both cats and dogs, including a combination of several in one home. I've stayed overnight for extended stays at people's houses and taken good care of both their pets and homes. I have experience with sighthounds and understand the cute little quirks they can come with. I've also looked after my senior dog for a number of years before he passed and provided
“I couldn't be any happier! Eliza left detailed report cards and my cat looked very happy from the photos! She was careful and understanding with all my requests! Will book again with her without a doubt!”

“Can’t recommend Amber enough! Such a lovely person who looked after our cats whilst we went away. She always sent us photos to help ease any anxieties. The cats loved her.”

About: Hi, I’m Jiani, a passionate dog lover based in Southampton. As a proud owner of a miniature Dachshund, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet like family. I have hands-on experience looking after dogs of different ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, responsible, and organised in my day-to-day work, and I bring the same level of care and commitment when looking after pets. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply keeping to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can provide regular updates, photos, and messages for complete peace of mind, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a dog owner myself, I already structure my day around regular walks, feeding times, play, and companionship. My Dachshund, Robin, is a much-loved member of the family, so I understand the importance of consistency and attention to a dog’s physical and emotional needs. I work locally and have evenings, weekends, and school holidays available, allowing me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll ensure they receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I am also happy to provide regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is getting on while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly home where dogs can relax and feel secure. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to ensure they receive personalised care and attention. As a dog owner myself, I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone else. I will treat your dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and a safe environment. I am happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medication, training, or routines to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. For boarding and daycare services, I have a friendly Dachshund, Robin, at home. Meet-and-greets can be arranged beforehand to ensure all dogs are comfortable together. I will also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Cheddar loves spending time with Ananda and her husband. They take excellent care of him and keep us updated with lots of photos and videos. Would definitely recommend and book again.”
“Wardah was looking after my 4 month old energetic puppy and she did a wonderful job. Puppy received lots of cuddles and played a lot as once we got home the puppy went straight to sleep lol. Wardah put my mind to ease as she sent photos and videos of their day. 10/10, couldn't recommend anyone better!!”
“Laura was absolutely wonderful with Barley and thank you for having him! She took the time to meet us beforehand before looking after him and sent plenty of updates throughout the day. She took him on two walks and catered for his high energy needs. Thank you Laura and we will definitely book again! 🥰🥰”
“sydney was able to accommodate and take care of our georgie very last minute! we have a longer booking with her later on in the year, and it was lovely to meet her prior to that. she was wonderful, provided updates, and we were so sure georgie was in good hands! thanks again sydney! we’ll see you in june :)”

“Shannon and her sister helped us to look after Robin for one day, they did a great job and took Robin out multiple times, she had great fun! Instant reply, very kind and friendly, highly recommend! :)”
About: I am comfortable handling energetic dogs as well as more sensitive or anxious pets. I always prioritise safety, consistency, and clear communication with owners, including photo updates and detailed summaries after each walk. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I organise my schedule to ensure I can give pets my full attention during walks and visits. I have flexible availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, and I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening bookings with advance notice. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether caring for pets in their owner’s home or during walks, I make sure their environment remains calm, secure, and consistent with their usual routine. In a client’s home, I respect the space completely and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication (if required), walk routes, and house rules. I double-check doors, gates, and harness fittings to ensure pets are always secure. During walks, I remain attentive to surroundings, avoid unsafe areas, and monitor body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I understand that leaving your pet with someone requires trust, so I provide regular updates and photos for reassurance.

“We have no hesitation in recommending Neve: we were extremely pleased with the care and attention given to our greyhound, Molly, who thoroughly enjoyed her stay. We have already booked her next stay with Neve. Thank you! Molly, M & D.”
“Fantastic! Bertie was excited to go back which is always a good sign. Had no concerns or worries about Bertie whilst he was in her care. Teri was very prompt in replying to any messages and send updates about Bertie day.”
About: I’ve taken regular care of my friends Samoyed dog for quite a few years now as she is a frequent traveller. Experienced with day to day care, dog walking and providing comfort and play. Honest, trustworthy and genuinely care about animals. I work part time from home so available for cuddles and play. We have a large garden and I can go for walks after 3pm some Days. I have Fridays off so can do long walks that day. I have 2 children but one is 14 and the other is 11 so responsible and respectful who also love animals I have a fenced garden and an open plan house where I can see the pets easily.

About: I have a strong love for animals and I understand the importance of making sure you have someone trust worthy to look after your furry friends as I understand how worrying this can be. Since I was young I have cared for my friends and families animals (both cats and dogs) and still continue to regularly. I currently work from home full time Monday to Friday with weekends off work so I have a lot of time to spend with your furry friends and look forward to having their company. I always abide by the owners rules (i.e. amount of walks/feeding times/ whether an animal doesn't like something/whether they need medication at a certain time) other than this, I will give your pet a lot of attention,play time and belly rubs (IF they like it!) :)

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since childhood. Growing up with them as companions, I now reside in Ocean Village, but I spend a lot of time at the beach or strolling through the parks in Southampton. Sid, my dog, absolutely loves being outdoors and socializing with other dogs. If your furry friend enjoys plenty of affection and cozy cuddles on the sofa, along with a few long walks each day, they’ll be well taken care of here. Sid joined to make the family when he was just 8 weeks old and has received all his vaccinations. He enjoys making new friends and is quite content traveling in his bag, whether we’re shopping or taking the train. At home, he has his favorite spots to relax—one in the lounge for daytime and another in the bedroom for nighttime. Recently, I took care of my friend’s dog, Hugo, for a few nights, and now we regularly meet up so the dogs can have playdates in the park. Currently don’t work so you can have 24 hours of me and Sid. Live on 4th floor with lifts, but we are out 4 or 5 times a day if not more. Lots of open space and a park very close. I have a Vets the other side of bridge, I’d look after Sid better than i probably look after myself - Sid and I won’t let anyone down
“I chose Sophie for a day care stay for our beloved Maia, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met them, they were welcoming and friendly. Maia was made to feel part of the family and enjoyed spending time with Sophie, her family, and their lovely dog Theo. It was reassuring to know she was in such a caring and safe environment while we were away. Sophie kept us updated throughout the day and when we picked Maia up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. We would highly recommend Sophie and her family to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Maia!”
About: I have been a dog owner since childhood, some 40+ years. Dogs of all shapes and sizes. Ranging from a Jack Russell to a Great Dane. Having lost our Ellie some months ago, I have a huge hole to fill. Knowing how hard it is to find sitters that can give them the love and attention they need while their mummy's and daddy's are away. I can offer a loving, comfortable home where they will be the centre of attention with lots of cuddles on the sofa, playtime and walks. I have just given up my job to make dog sitting my main priority. So they will have company the whole time they are with us. I have a fully fenced medium size garden. They will have access to the whole downstairs during the day. And may sleep upstairs at night if they prefer. Lots of parks nearby for walks.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, from tiny Jack Russells to Rottweilers and XL Bullies. I have hands‑on experience at Cardiff Dogs Home and currently volunteer at Southampton Second Chance Animal Rescue, working with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, puppies, and senior pets. I’ve previously cared for a Weimaraner through regular house sitting, and I’ve worked with many rescue dogs including Frenchies and Spaniels. I’m confident with enrichment games, basic training support, and following any routines or rules you already use at home. I can also safely give medication to both cats and dogs. What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and my ability to read body language—especially helpful with nervous or rescue pets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I’m a PhD student at Southampton, so my schedule is very flexible. I usually spend around three hours on campus during weekday working hours, but this is easy to work around your pet’s routine. Most of my work is laptop‑based, meaning I can often study from your home if needed and keep your pet company throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can accommodate both regular weekly bookings and one‑off requests. I’m also happy to follow your dog or cat’s existing schedule—feeding, walks, medication, or training—so everything stays consistent and stress‑free for them. When caring for pets in your home, I keep their routine, environment, and comfort exactly as they’re used to. I follow all feeding schedules, walk lengths, training rules, and medication needs to maintain consistency and reduce stress. As a PhD student, I can spend plenty of time keeping your pet company with walks, play, enrichment, or calm downtime depending on what they enjoy. I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, and nervous or rescue pets, and I always go at their pace. I treat your home with respect and keep everything tidy, and I’m happy to send regular updates so you feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Michelle is very good with our dog and he is very calm when we come home. She is very knowlegable and observant, if she notices anything about him she lets us know. Bruno enjoys the games she plays with him in the garden.”
About: I've looked after a variety of animals since childhood, both my own and my neighbours. This includes both cats and dogs, including a combination of several in one home. I've stayed overnight for extended stays at people's houses and taken good care of both their pets and homes. I have experience with sighthounds and understand the cute little quirks they can come with. I've also looked after my senior dog for a number of years before he passed and provided I'm a student so I'll be able to visit homes when I'm not in lectures and will be happy to house sit overnight as long as I'm able to leave to attend university for a few hours on some days. I have been responsible for caring for pets in several different homes and always ensure to follow the instructions from owners and maintain a safe and fun environment for the animals.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life from birth, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Although I’m new to professional pet sitting platforms, I have lifelong hands-on experience owning and caring for dogs, cats, and many other animals. I currently own a 12-year-old German Shepherd/Wolfdog cross who I single-handedly trained using positive reinforcement methods. He has been raw fed since puppyhood, and over the years this sparked a strong interest in canine nutrition, holistic wellbeing, behaviour, and force-free training techniques. I’m especially experienced with larger breeds, high-energy dogs, Cockapoos, and Spaniels, but honestly I adore dogs of every shape and size. I’m confident handling strong dogs, administering medication, and adapting care to suit each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Alongside dogs, I’ve also owned and cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, fish, hamsters, kittens, and puppies. I’ve regularly house sat for friends and family, caring for both pets and homes with the same level of respect and attention I would expect for my own. I work from home as a self-employed Will Writer and Estate Planning Consultant, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I love hiking, long walks, countryside adventures, and including dogs out and about in my daily routine wherever possible, if they enjoy it and feel comfortable. I also have my own car fitted with a pet seat cover for safe and comfortable transport when needed. I currently split my time between Southampton and Epsom, so I’m available for dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting across Surrey, Hampshire, and surrounding areas. Above all else, I genuinely care about animals and understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone. My aim is always to make pets feel safe, relaxed, loved, and cared for while giving owners complete peace of mind. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. I’m available for house sitting throughout the week, including weekends, whether that’s shorter stays or overnight care. I can give pets plenty of attention, company, walks, and care throughout the day, and adapt to each pet’s routine and needs. Unfortunately I’m unable to offer care in my own home, as I have a senior dog who doesn’t always get along with other animals. However, I’m very happy to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and settled in their familiar environment and routine. I always treat both pets and homes with the utmost respect, keeping things clean, calm, and stress-free. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behaviour, exercise needs, feeding schedule, and any medication or special requirements so they receive personalised care and attention while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Back home in Malaysia, I have an 8-year old dachshund called Rico, and before him I had a Belgian Shepherd named Max who lived to the incredible age of 17 and a 15 year old King Charles Cavalier Lucy :). Raising Max from an energetic, high-drive breed into his senior years gave me experience with everything from structured exercise and training to adapting care for an older dog who needed a gentler pace and extra attention. Rico, with all his dachshund personality, has taught me patience, consistency and the importance of routine. I’m now based in the UK and really miss being around dogs, which is why I’ve started dog sitting. I’m currently studying medicine, so I’m responsible, organised and used to balancing commitments carefully. I absolutely love dogs, so your pet would be in a calm, caring home environment with plenty of attention. I’m also very active and love going on runs and long walks by the port, so I’m more than happy to take energetic dogs out for proper exercise. At the same time, I’m equally comfortable with older dogs who prefer slower strolls and quiet companionship. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own making sure they feel safe, loved and well cared for while you’re away. I am a student at the university so have plenty of time to play with your dogs :) I am free everyday of the week and have quite a flexible schedule. I am able to play with and walk them very often. I have a 2 bed 2 bath apartment that comes with a fenced garden for dogs! There is also a designated gated pet relief area. I also live 5mins from Mayflower Park, Queen’s Park and Houndwell Park so your dog will have so much variety!
About: I am an absolute dog love and socialise in one on one dog walk. I help to provide a safe and calm environment so your dog can feel safe and secure. I am confident all different breeds of dogs (any shape or size). I will always listen to your instructions carefully and carry out an extra tasks need to help your dog. I will provide regular updates with messages so you can feel at ease. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old as I have grown up with them. I’ve had experience feeding, walking and cleaning them. I am currently a university student with a lot of flexible times during the week and availability to stay over on weekends. I am available all day Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 2 pm and Friday morning before 11am. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your dog can feel safe and secure. I have a fenced garden and no other dogs on the premises.
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats through helping family members and neighbors with their pets. I regularly walked my grandaunt’s dog, making sure they got enough exercise, attention, and outdoor time. I also helped my neighbor care for her kittens by feeding them, playing with them, and keeping them comfortable while she was away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always try to make pets feel safe, happy, and cared for like part of the family. I’m currently a full-time undergraduate student, but my coursework is relatively light, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m usually able to dedicate around five hours a day to spending time with pets, whether that’s walks, playtime, or general care. I’m also available throughout the weekends, and I genuinely enjoy being around animals and giving them attention and companionship. I will always prioritise a pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a pet owner’s home, I carefully follow any instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, or special care needs to make sure pets feel secure and stress-free. I’m patient and gentle with animals, and I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. I also make sure the environment stays clean, calm, and safe at all times. Communication is important to me as well, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos for owners while they’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Jiani, a passionate dog lover based in Southampton. As a proud owner of a miniature Dachshund, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet like family. I have hands-on experience looking after dogs of different ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m reliable, responsible, and organised in my day-to-day work, and I bring the same level of care and commitment when looking after pets. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply keeping to their usual routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can provide regular updates, photos, and messages for complete peace of mind, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a dog owner myself, I already structure my day around regular walks, feeding times, play, and companionship. My Dachshund, Robin, is a much-loved member of the family, so I understand the importance of consistency and attention to a dog’s physical and emotional needs. I work locally and have evenings, weekends, and school holidays available, allowing me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll ensure they receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I am also happy to provide regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is getting on while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly home where dogs can relax and feel secure. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to ensure they receive personalised care and attention. As a dog owner myself, I understand the trust involved in leaving your pet with someone else. I will treat your dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and a safe environment. I am happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medication, training, or routines to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. For boarding and daycare services, I have a friendly Dachshund, Robin, at home. Meet-and-greets can be arranged beforehand to ensure all dogs are comfortable together. I will also provide regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Eliza and I’m 19. I’ve had a golden cocker spaniel in the household for about 5 years now - we got her in 2021, when she was 4 months old (an adorable tiny puppy!) and I was 14. She’s now 5 years old so I’ve pretty much grown up with her, so I have experience with dogs of all different ages. I would prefer to look after small and medium-sized dogs and I’m used to them pulling on the lead (my dog does it all the time!) but open to walking larger dogs too, as long as they aren’t too strong on the lead. I’m used to long walks since cocker spaniels are an active and lively breed! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I’m a student at Southampton university, currently in my first year, so I’m pretty flexible with timings. I’m free at various times on weekdays, and most weekends, but I’ll be updating my calendar regularly to show specific availability. I grew up with a dog (Toffee) and a cat (Noodle). On my profile, the first 6 photos are me with my dog (ranging from adulthood, and a picture of her as a puppy in the last of the 6 photos); the rest of the photos are me with my cat (also ranging from when he was a kitten - the first two photos, when I was much younger too! - to adulthood.) Therefore, I am well-versed when it comes to caring for both cats and dogs. Let me know if you have any questions! :)
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 8 years old, when I got my first cat, and I’ve been a hands-on, responsible owner ever since. I cared for her throughout her entire life until she passed away from old age two years ago, managing all aspects of her daily care myself. This included feeding, maintaining a clean litter box (scooped twice daily), bathing when needed, especially as she became less able to groom herself—regular grooming, nail trimming, and monitoring her overall health. I also took her to the vet regularly for check-ups, so I’m very comfortable recognising changes in behaviour, appetite, or routine that may signal a health concern. I’m currently the owner of a 5 month old kitten named Leo, so I’m very familiar with kitten energy levels, play needs, feeding schedules, and gentle handling. Between senior cat care and kitten care, I’m confident caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. Furthermore, I also have extensive experience caring for dogs. My family has had a Bernese Mountain Dog for the past 8 years, who lives with my parents back home. I’ve been involved in his care since he was a puppy, including feeding, walking, basic training, grooming, and general day-to-day care. Being a large-breed dog, he has also given me experience handling bigger dogs calmly and confidently. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have hands-on experience working with shelter animals. During my teenage years, I volunteered at animal shelters, and after graduating high school, I took a gap year before university to work in a veterinary shelter. During this time, I cared for stray dogs and cats, assisted with daily husbandry, administered medications, supported vaccination routines, and helped monitor animals recovering from illness or procedures. I also had the opportunity to work closely with veterinarians, including shadowing and assisting in surgery rooms, which has given me valuable experience handling animals calmly and safely in medical settings. I’m a university student with a very flexible schedule. I only need to be on campus for lectures around 2–3 times per week, usually for a few hours at a time. Outside of that, I’m home most of the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, and supervision. I’m naturally quite introverted and enjoy spending time at home, which means I’m well-suited to providing a calm, stable environment and sticking closely to your cat’s normal routine. Your pet’s comfort and wellbeing are my top priorities. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you provide, including special feeding schedules, medication administration, grooming routines, and play preferences. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, cared for, and relaxed, and I’m always attentive to their behaviour and mood. I also understand how important peace of mind is for owners, so I’m very happy to send regular photo and video updates to keep you reassured while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to maintain their routine as closely as possible so they feel secure and comfortable in my care. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their usual routine. My background working in veterinary shelters and alongside vets has made me very attentive to hygiene, safety, and recognising early signs of stress or illness, and I always prioritise your pet’s comfort and wellbeing.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and truly love being around them. I currently have a 7-year-old dachshund and previously cared for my greyhound for 12 years, which gave me a lot of experience understanding dogs at different life stages, including senior care. Because of this, I’m very patient and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I’m also a university student with a flexible schedule and quite a lot of free time, so I’m able to spend plenty of time with pets throughout the day. Whether your dog needs company, extra care, or just someone to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m an active person and love going on walks and being outdoors, so I’d be more than happy to bring energetic or athletic dogs on longer walks or even runs. I also enjoy playing with dogs and making sure they get the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need. For more relaxed pets, I’m just as happy to provide cuddles, companionship, and a calm environment. I understand how important pets are to their owners, so I always aim to treat every dog as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I’m currently a university student with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to spend with pets and make sure they get the attention they need. I’m able to be with dogs for most of the day and can easily adjust my routine depending on their needs. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just company during the day, I’m happy to provide it. I’m also an active person and enjoy being outdoors, so I’d love to take energetic dogs on walks or runs, while also being just as happy to relax and give cuddles to dogs who prefer a calmer environment. I live in a clean and comfortable two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment near Ocean Village. The building has a fenced garden area that is safe for dogs, as well as a designated pet relief area for quick bathroom breaks. There is also a larger park nearby where I can take dogs for longer walks and exercise. I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and feel at home while they are with me. I’m happy to follow each dog’s routine, whether that means specific feeding times, medication, extra playtime, or just lots of cuddles and attention so they feel safe while their owners are away. 🐶
About: I’m a massive animal lover, from dogs to cats, rabbits, horses and everything in between. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all sizes but have a particular soft spot for dogs. After moving away from home for university, I’ve been missing the unmatchable company that pets give and would be honoured to give yours a little extra attention. I love a puppy, but have extra experience with senior dogs and can take walks, sits and any other services at paces that suit them. I love a bit of character and quirk, and would aim to provide the same quality of care that you provide for your own pets. I’m a university student with a flexible schedule to work around yours and your pets needs and cause minimal disruption to their schedules. I prioritise every detail of care and make it as personal as possible by carefully following all information provided and keeping communication open with the owners too. I’m a student with a flexible schedule and a car. My main priority would be to fit seamlessly into your schedule to not disrupt routine and would be happy to work around you. I’m an early riser, so love early morning walks but am also happy to accommodate activities later in the day too. I have experience house sitting holiday lets over out of season periods and have provided cleaning services, so I have a great attention to detail and am very tidy. I’m big on rule following so would never cross boundaries but have lots of love and attention to give your pets! Just let me know what you’re comfortable with and I’ll make sure to provide the rest. After having my own, very fussy princess of a senior dog I’m more than able to accommodate any quirks. I know each dog has their own personality and I’d love to get to know them to tailor how I care for them, just as you would!

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life ever since I was a young child. Monty was the most loving dog as a child, but my cat Jessy was a bit more independent (but loved a cuddle when it was on his terms!). I own two cockapoo's called Guinness and Murphy, very typical cockapoo's! Full of energy and extremely loving. I have a young child who Guinness adores! Very experienced with high energy dogs. I've had both my current dogs since they were puppies so very happy to do drop in visits to puppies :) I am currently working from home and currently have complete flexibility Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday's for drop in's and dog walking. Also available on the weekends with notice for house sitting, dog walks and drop in visits. If you would like me to visit your pet before caring for them please message me and we can arrange a visit beforehand.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets - including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, parrots and even a turtle! Having previously owned and bonded closely with animals of all kinds, I understand the unique personalities and needs of each pet. I’m active, attentive, and committed to providing personalised care based on your animal’s temperament, energy level, and preferences. Whether your pet loves playtime, calm companionship, or structured routines, I adapt to make them feel safe and loved. I’d be honored to care for your beloved pet and promise to treat them like family with kindness, patience, and lots of love! I work from home and am self-employed, which allows me to offer fully flexible, all-day care for your pet. I’m happy to welcome them into my home, where they’ll receive constant attention, companionship, and plenty of love. If you have a dog, I’ll take them for regular walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening to keep them happy and active. Whether you’re working, away, or just need extra support, I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, engaged, and well cared for from start to finish. Every pet is treated like family- with love, patience, and genuine care. I prioritise their comfort and safety, ensuring a secure and pet-friendly environment. Please note, while I absolutely love caring for dogs, I prefer not to have them sleep in the bed-unless they’re very small (under 7kg). As I live in a flat, I also need to be mindful of neighbours; occasional barking is totally fine, but I’m unable to accept very vocal dogs.

“Shadia took such great care of our cockapoo, Rory! She was excellent at communicating before and throughout the booking - we got regular updates, photos, and videos which really put our minds at ease. Rory clearly had a fantastic time with Shadia’s lovely family and their sweet dog Skye. It was especially reassuring to know that Shadia was thoughtful and attentive during the heatwave, making sure Rory stayed safe and comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“I was anxious about leaving my two dogs with Carmen for the weekend, but she offered to keep me updated by phone. On the Sunday morning she texted me to see if she could take the dogs to the beach - how great is that? A run and a swim on a boiling hot day, perfect! I am happy that they are booked in for Christmas as I know they will be well looked after. Thanks.”
“Wardah has been amazing with our elderly dog, Minu, who was clearly very comfortable with her. She recognised and accommodated Minu's needs perfectly. Communication was great, and we received lots of lovely updates throughout the stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Wardah again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Mabel recently stayed with Joanne and her family. I sent her packing (a little nervous due to it being my first rover) and with a million warnings about what she MIGHT do! 🤣 Turns out Mabel was an absolute dream so they must have been brilliant at looking after her. I had regular updates and pictures. Timings were sorted out easily and we kept in touch via Whatsapp. Joanne has a really secure garden - which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving her there. It felt like a home from home setting. I have two children of my own and Joanne's two seemed to love her as much as her own. They were super excited to have her. She was allowed upstairs and just slipped into their family life. She had plenty of walks and was fed well. I wouldn't hesitate at using Jo again! Thanks guys! 🐾🐾”
“Our dog Lulu had a very enjoyable stay with Caroline. Caroline took great care of Lulu, and we would have no hesitation of asking Caroline to look after her again. Thoroughly recommended.”
“Laura took care of my cavapoo, who can be a little tricky, with absolute ease. It was great to meet ahead of the booking and sandy had a great time! I’ll definitely be in touch with Laura in future!”
“What a brilliant experience we had with Eleanor and Raymond. This was the first time we have left our very high energy, crazy Labrador over night and he absolutely loved it. Both Eleanor and Raymond were so good with him. They took time to understand his needs and make it the most positive experience. Nothing seemed to faze them and it's very easy to see how much they love having dogs around. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them and Rosso is looking forward to more adventures with them.”
“Sydney provided an exceptional level of care while looking after our two dogs, Jock and Mia. From the outset, her communication was outstanding—she kept us regularly updated with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Jock and Mia were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and enjoying their time with her. Sydney’s warm, attentive, and caring nature truly shines through in the way she looks after animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. We are already looking forward to booking with Sydney again in the future.”
“Our dog (Cookie) really enjoyed herself staying with Murali and his family. Cookie is a very lively but very friendly GSD and settled with their own dog and another, especially playing chase around their large garden. We would have no hesitation in recommending this boarder to anyone.”
“Arija was very friendly and helpful working around our timings. She sent photos of Newton looking happy with a quick update confirming all ways good everyday. Newton said he had a great time and enjoyed being with them 🤣 Thank you Arija”
About: Hi, I’m Sophie! My partner George and I recently bought our first home in Eastleigh, and we’re both huge dog lovers. While our work commitments mean we can’t have a dog of our own right now, we’d love to help others by providing caring and reliable dog walking and sitting services. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, from a Border Collie to a Lhasa Apso/Yorkie mix, and now a lovely litte Poochon. I’m very used to grooming needs and making sure coats are well cared for. I also regularly help care for family dogs, including Labradors, so I’m confident with both small and large breeds. Having experienced every stage of a dog’s life, I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies as well as giving extra patience, attention, and love to older dogs. I work full-time across four days a week, which means I’m fully available on Tuesdays and weekends. On my days off, your dog will have my full attention. I’ll always stick to your routine and make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for—whether that’s during a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. I’m happy to provide as many walks as your dog needs, along with plenty of playtime and attention. They’ll also have access to a secure garden and a safe, dog-friendly home environment. I have a fully fenced, secure garden and plenty of lovely walking routes nearby. I’m also happy to take dogs out in the car for longer walks or new environments if they enjoy that. I always aim to follow your preferences and routine to make sure you feel completely comfortable. My home does have stairs, but these can be safely blocked off if needed. Dogs are welcome to settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. You’re very welcome to bring their bed, crate, blankets, or anything familiar from home. If your dog is used to cuddling up on the sofa, they’ll be more than welcome to do the same here!

“Thank you to Kelly and her family for taking such great care of Winnie. I was a bit nervous about leaving her as she seems to be going through a particularly anxious stage but Kelly gave loads of reassurance, great updates and settled Winnie into her family home super quickly. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Winnie! Xx”
“Gussoon is absolutely amazing. Our Georgie is a little bit unsure of new people and Gussoon made sure to take her time in getting to know her. The next time we brought Georgie over, she was so excited to go there! She makes such an effort to ensure Georgie has a good time. Could not recommend her enough!! ❤️ Thank you Gussoon!”
