“Mark & Megan looked after Maggie during the hot weather for two nights as we were attending our daughters wedding. Maggie was cared for very well although she seemed very tired when we collecter her but hardly suprising given the hot weather and being away from Mum n Dad. Thank you for taking good care of Maggie and we hope she didn't give you too many problems. Many thanks Kim & Bernie”

About: My husband and I are huge animal lovers, and caring for pets is something we genuinely enjoy. We recently lost our beloved dog, Maya, who was part of our family for 17 years, so we understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. We’re quite experienced at looking after both dogs and cats and always treat them as if they were our own. As I currently have plenty of time at home, your dog will enjoy at least two walks a day, lots of playtime, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. We always follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe, happy, and relaxed. We also have a secure, fenced green garden where dogs can safely play and enjoy fresh air. Our home is spacious, with a large living room that gives plenty of room for relaxing, stretching out, and feeling comfortable indoors. You’ll always be able to reach me, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. I also hold an enhanced DBS check for additional reassurance. We’d love to welcome your pet into our home and give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’m normally a teacher, but I’m currently on my school holiday, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m home most of the day, which means your pet will receive lots of attention, company, and regular care rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily adapt to their usual routine, whether that’s walks, feeding times, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, I always take the time to learn about their usual routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, favourite toys, and any special requirements so I can keep things as familiar as possible. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and secure environment with plenty of attention and companionship. We also have a secure garden where dogs can enjoy time outside under supervision. I carefully make sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and stress-free. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always put their safety and wellbeing first.

About: What sets me apart as a pet carer is the lifelong experience I have with animals — not just as a sitter, but as someone who has shared their home and heart with pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs almost all my life, from early childhood through adulthood, including providing a loving home for rescue dogs in need of patience and care, and a wonderfully spoiled Pekingese who knew he ruled the house! Alongside my canine companions, I’ve also cared for over 10 cats — each with their own personality, from shy and independent to playful and attention-seeking. Looking after pets, for me, goes beyond feeding and walking. It’s about building trust and understanding their unique needs — whether that’s keeping a nervous rescue dog calm with gentle routines, giving senior pets the extra comfort and care they deserve, or entertaining an energetic kitten with playtime. I’m experienced in administering medication, maintaining balanced diets, and ensuring pets get the right amount of exercise, all while showering them with love and attention. What truly sets me apart is the personal touch I bring — treating every pet as if they were my own, always ensuring they feel safe, happy, and at home. I’d be delighted to care for your furry family members and give them the love they deserve. Let me know if you'd like to chat further! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home with full flexibility, allowing me to structure my day around the needs of the pets I look after. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or regular walks, I’m always present and able to give them the attention they deserve. Living right next to the beach is a huge bonus — it means I can offer a variety of walks, whether it’s a short, playful stroll along the shore or a longer, more adventurous walk to burn off some extra energy. The fresh air, open space, and ever-changing seaside environment create a perfect setting for happy, active pets. Because I’m home throughout the day, I can easily adapt to their routines — from calming company for pets who prefer a relaxed pace, to interactive play for those who love staying active. Their comfort and well-being are always my priority! When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel completely comfortable and at ease, treating them as part of the family. My home is spacious, giving pets plenty of room to roam, play, or find a cozy spot to rest — with no restrictions on where they can sleep or relax. Whether they prefer curling up on the sofa, stretching out in a sunny corner, or having a quiet space of their own, I make sure they feel safe and settled. Being just a short walk from the beach and a nearby playground means there’s always an opportunity for fun, whether it’s a brisk morning walk along the shore, a playful run, or a gentle evening stroll. For pets who love a bit of nature, there’s also an allotment space just minutes away, perfect for a sniff-filled adventure. I’m respectful of the home, keeping everything tidy and making sure the pet is happy, well-fed, and entertained. No matter the setting, my goal is always to create a loving, stress-free environment tailored to each pet's needs.

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and genuinely love being around them. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and chickens, so I’m confident looking after pets with very different personalities, routines and needs. I’m friendly, reliable and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. I’m happy with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and keeping to their usual routines, while giving them plenty of fuss and attention along the way. 😊 I’m available every day and have plenty of flexibility as I work part-time from home. This means I can easily fit pet care around my daily routine, including regular walks, feeding, playtime and plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and can be flexible with timings to suit you and your pets. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe and caring hands. I’ll always follow their usual routine and your instructions carefully, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or mine. I’m attentive, reliable and will make sure they receive plenty of company, affection, exercise and care while you’re away.

About: I have loved animals my whole life and have grown up around pets, especially dogs. I have my own dog back home, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, helping friends, family, and neighbours with walking, feeding, bathing, and spending quality time with their dogs. I also have a twin brother that loves dogs as much as I do, so your dog will always have someone giving them attention and keeping them busy. We have also volunteered at a dog shelter, where we helped care for dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages and personalities. I’m currently studying at university, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy alongside my studies. I’m patient, calm, and always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every dog as if it were my own and always follow the owner’s routine and instructions. Your dog will have the best time with us and will feel like home around us, in a safe, cozy environment. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I’m currently studying at university, which gives me a flexible schedule during the day and evenings. I enjoy spending my free time caring for animals, going on walks, playing, and keeping pets company. I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they get the time, attention, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and stick to the pet’s usual routine. I keep a clean, calm, and safe environment and make sure pets are always supervised, especially during walks or playtime. I treat every pet with kindness and patience, making sure they feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for. My brother and I can make sure every pet feels like home!

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, so being around dogs has always felt very natural to me. I absolutely love their different personalities, quirks and individual needs, and I’m happiest when I have a four-legged friend around. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs of different sizes, ages and personalities, from Jack Russells and Sprockers through to larger dogs such as Boxers. I’ve cared for dogs from playful puppies through to older dogs who need a little more patience, care and a slower pace. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise and play, as well as dogs who are happier having a quieter day with lots of cuddles and company. I understand that every dog is different, and I’m happy to follow their usual routines, whether that’s specific walking times, feeding arrangements, treats, playtime or simply giving them space when they need it. I’m also very aware of how important it is for owners to feel confident that their dog is safe, happy and well cared for while they’re away. I currently can’t have a dog of my own iwhere I live, which is one of the reasons I’ve joined Rover. I’d love to spend more time with dogs and give them plenty of attention, walks, playtime and cuddles while their owners are busy or away. I work from home, although I also work a mixture of day and night shifts, so my availability varies from week to week. I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can properly commit to any booking before accepting it. For me, looking after dogs isn’t just a job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’d love to get to know your dog, build their trust and make sure they feel comfortable, loved and looked after while they’re with me 🐾🖤 My shifts are usually either 7am–7pm or 7pm–7am, so my availability varies from week to week. I’m happy to come to your home and stay with your dog for the day, keeping them company in their own familiar surroundings. Depending on my shift, I can fit walks in before or after work, and on my days off I’m much more flexible and can spend the whole day with them whether that’s walks, playtime, cuddles or simply keeping them company. I’ll always plan bookings around my rota so I can give your dog plenty of time, attention and care I currently offer pet care in the pet owner’s home, so your dog can stay in their own familiar surroundings where they feel most comfortable. I’m happy to pop in for walks, feeding and playtime, or stay with them for longer periods when needed. I think keeping their usual routine as normal as possible helps them feel settled while you’re away, and I’m more than happy to follow any instructions or routines you have for them. As I work from home when I’m on day shifts, I can also spend time working from your home while keeping your dog company throughout the day

About: Hi my name is Ellisia! A little about me, I was very lucky to have Fostered 8-10 rescues from Europe in my home as a volunteer for a new leash for life charity (Hampshire based dog charity) in 2023. And rescued one of those of my own who is now a lover. Dog grooming assistant qualified, at Chichester college. I handled dog breeds or all shapes and sizes. And can bath, groom and trim nails. 2 months volunteering in Thailand in a dog sanctuary back in 2020. When I assisted with the running of the dog rescue centre. Bathing, feeding and comforting new rescues. And walking the resident dogs. Owned my own dog for 1 year now! And grew up with a family dog ( a Norfolk terrier) for 17years from the age of 11-28, she sparked my love for animals and dogs that’s for sure. Have been walking and sitting dogs for the last 2 years approximately along side my job which is work from home. With the intention to eventually do this full time.

“Elspeth took Bracken out with two other dogs for a nice long walk and it’s really nice he got the activity/socialisation. Plenty of photos, which was good. He was anxious (he’s not used to being away from home) once back at her place but she used calming sorry and diffusers, which was really good of her.”

About: I’ve been housesitting (for friends and professionally) and looking after their animals for 6 years now. Mainly small-medium sized dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, chickens. I’ve had cats of my own for 15+ years too. Discovering Rover, I’m excited to explore opportunities in my local area now too. I’m currently self-employed and work from home so mainly available weekdays in the daytime. Sometimes evenings and weekends. Overnights on occasion but with one (small) guest. I usually go to other peoples homes to sit but I am happy to provide bed, toys, etc if staying for a short time at my home.

About: I have a diploma in canine communication, first aid, pet sitting and dog walking. I’ve worked in a pet shop, which also helped gain experience and knowledge about cats and dogs. I’ve owned my dog since I moved out eight years ago. I’ve got experience with all types of animals from owning horses, down to rats, snakes, mice and fish. I’m currently just starting this venture, so I have full flexibility. Please get in contact with me to discuss times and days you need help with. Caring for pets in your home, will involve sticking to the routing you and your dog already have in place .. this makes it familiar to your furry family member. Whether that’s hourly toilet breaks or two hourly or a time they like a cuddle.

About: I am very active and love being outdoors in all weathers so walks are not just about getting from A to B, they’re about giving dogs the exercise, stimulation and enjoyment they need. It’s important to me that dog owners feel completely comfortable knowing their dog is happy and cared for. For the last 4 years I have worked as a dog walker and pet sitter. I also offer daycare and drop in visits in their homes for dogs and any other small pets. I am first aid trained, and have good knowledge and experience of senior dogs. I’m used to working around dogs and their individual routines and I’m happy to keep things as normal as possible for them. Whether they need a good walk or just some fuss and attention. I do not offer over night boarding or sitting at present as I have 2 dogs of my own but I may do so in the future

Abel was so excited to see Clare and her daughter and made himself straight at home. Clare kept us updated with photos and it was lovely to see how comfortable and happy he was in her company after a little while between holidays! Again, Clare, we can’t thank you enough for the care you give our boy xx”

About: I have had my own dog/dogs for over 25 years. Recently lost my beloved Echo to cancer. Would love to rehome another 4 legged friend but due to work commitments would not be fair. Whilst caring for your special friend rest assured they will be treated like a prince/princess. I am in-between jobs at the moment. Hoping to find part time work soon, but in the meantime free to spend my time looking after or walking your furry friend. I have a secure garden and dog friendly home. Lots of nice walks on the doorstep or can go further afield if your furry friend is happy to travel. Over the years I have been lucky enough to be mum to 3 Springer Spaniels and Echo, a Lurcher (Whippet cross). Sadly Echo passed away last year and due to work commitments have been unable to rehome another 😢.

About: I’m a trustworthy and caring pet and house sitter with a genuine love for animals and a strong sense of responsibility. I’ve had dogs of all sizes all my life, so I’m very comfortable caring for different breeds, temperaments, and routines. A recent move to London means I’m sadly no longer able to have a pet of my own, which is why I love helping others by looking after theirs. I offer attentive pet care including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship, as well as taking care of your home while you’re away, from collecting post to keeping everything safe and tidy. I’m happy to cover most areas across London and can be flexible with both short-term and longer stays. I am a hybrid worker Monday to Friday, so can be flexible depending on your pets needs. Over weekends I happy to take dogs out and about with me or alternatively quiet time in if that is their preference. Your pets’ comfort, routine, and safety are always my top priority, and I treat every home with respect and care. I prioritise routines, safe environments, clear communication, and attentive supervision, ensuring pets feel calm, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Always happy to send pet updates as often as you would like
