About: Hi! My name is Hannah (Yang) , and I am a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs. I’ve had the joy of raising three wonderful dogs in the past: Yanwo, Tony, and Yumi. Sadly, we lost Yumi when my children were only six months old, which led to us stepping back from having pets. However, my kids adore animals and are constantly begging me to bring a dog or cat into our home. While I’ve been hesitant to adopt a new pet due to the emotional loss we experienced, I’ve realized that hosting and caring for pets might be the perfect first step. I miss the companionship and joy that dogs bring, and I’m excited to offer a safe, loving environment for your furry family member. My children and I are eager to give your dog plenty of love and attention while you’re away, and we look forward to making them feel right at home. I also provide pick up and drop off service for areas within 1.5 miles with a small fee on top. If you're looking for someone to care for your pet with the same love and devotion as you do, I would be honored to be your go to sitter. Let’s chat and see how I can help take care of your fur baby! I work from home full-time with a very flexible schedule, allowing me to take regular breaks for walks to the local park or woods. I can take your pet for a walk every 3 to 4 hours throughout the day. When my children get home from school, they love joining me for the walks, ensuring your pet gets even more attention and exercise! I provide a safe and secure environment for your pet, starting with our fenced garden where they can play freely without any risk of getting out. Inside, we have a spacious living room perfect for your pet to relax and play. I also have a variety of pet toys to keep them entertained and engaged throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.
“I employed Daniel for 8 consecutive days to walk our cockapoo while we were away as my mother is struggling with arthritis and I have nothing but praise for his reliability, kindness and dog-loving nature! Not only did he turn up every day exactly on time for the walk, but he sometimes walked for extra time and even chatted with my mother afterwards. She found Daniel to be an extremely friendly and caring person and I would have no hesitation in using him again or recommending him to others.”
“Shaun is always punctual & reliable. He keeps me posted with photos during his walks with Baffi. He is trying his best to get Baffi walking at ease down the park. Highly recommended.”
About: I’m a student nurse who’s experienced in taking care of both people and pets. I have experience in looking after cats - I’ve lived with them since I was born. I have also lived with dogs that I have enjoyed helping take care of when they needed ( or when I’ve just needed a bit of company!) I am currently on holiday! In term time in a student paediatric nurse :) I’m just looking for something fun and bit different to do whilst I’m off. I’m really happy to chill at the pets house or take them for long walks! I will not be able to provide services at my home
“Rosie is fab with our puppy, has lots of experience and takes our puppy out for walks when we’re not available. Updates us with pictures, plays games with our pup and reinforces training. Trustworthy and reliable”
“Jacki has been a fantastic dog walker for our Romanian rescue. She is always very responsive and sends us lots of pictures of his walks, where he looks like he’s having the time of his life! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend! Thanks so much 😊”
About: I've always had dogs in my life growing up and then when I had my own children I had to have a family dog too. I had my own working cocker spaniel for 13 years who has sadly crossed the rainbow bridge recently leaving a big void in our home. I would love to you with the care of your dog when needed and enjoy having the company of dogs again in our home. I work from home several days a week which will reflect in my availability I am hoping to build my availability over time as I build my online business combining my two passions of counselling services and caring for animals. I have a large fenced safe garden and access to several playing fields locally. Having owned my own dog for 13 years until recently I am well equipped at home to take care of others. Happy for dogs in any space of my home, cuddles on the sofa? Absolutely! Especially after a lovely walk in nature!
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and often look after friends and family’s pets as well as my own. I have always loved animals. My calendar is up to date with availability. Walking regularly and looking after pets in their homes fits perfectly into my routine. I carefully plan my days to fit the needs of each pet. I offer pet sitting from your home. This way your pets will be comforted with the familiarity of their own home reducing stress and anxiety. I will be there to keep them company and stay in their routine. You will have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, secure and well cared for.
About: We've had dogs all our life. We regularly look after a mix of cockapoos and Jack Russles for our close family (Bertie, Pepper, Goose and Peggy). Would love a dog of our own but lifestyle limits the consistent commitment. Laura, she works from home at the start and tail end of the week. Sam, he is often around on the weekends and evenings. We are very active people who love walks as well as cuddles. We have a fenced garden. Wood floors and a comfy sofa! Plenty of walking routes near by including open fields (if dog is ok off lead).

“Great communication from Max and lovely pictures of Audrey enjoying her walk. Fed Audrey and the cats as per my instructions and I returned home to 3 contented pets. Would definitely ask Max to look after Audrey again! Thanks Max.”
About: Well where do I start...My name is Carol, and live in Winterbourne with my husband and our three cats. I currently have two Bengal cats and a black cat. I have always loved all animals but have to say cats are my favourite! I have a DBS check and enhance police as I work with in children safeguarding. I have a full driving licence. As well as my three cats Gin, Juniper and Kevin. I've also had years of experience looking after, cuddling and caring for family cats :) I know how it feels to go on a holiday and the guilt you feel of leaving your bundles of fluff behind, so let me put your mind at ease and take care of them for you, keeping their routines and making sure their every need is catered for.
About: I’ve never met a pet I didn't like! Growing up in a house full of diverse animals, from energetic pups to unique reptiles, has taught me how to bond with all kinds of personalities and species. I understand that every pet has a distinct "voice," and I pride myself on being a patient, observant caregiver who treats every animal like a member of my own family. I offer dedicated dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. For High-Energy Dogs: I love hitting the trails for long, vigorous walks or runs to ensure your pup burns off that extra steam. For Seniors or Shy Pets: I’m experienced in providing gentle companionship and following specific medication or feeding schedules. Beyond Dogs: Thanks to my background, I am also very comfortable caring for cats, small mammals, and reptiles. I work full time but my job has a different schedule every month, and I've got plenty of days off during the week and some availability during work days. I get my schedule one month in advance so I can commit to long term bookings and I've always got some availability for last minute bookings. I'll take care of any pets as if they're my own. With all the care and love they'll need. I've got plenty of experience to know what they'll want to feel safe and comfortable.
About: I’ve had a family springer spaniel for the last 7 years, but now I don’t live with my family I miss her very much. I’ve loved dogs all my life so am looking to fill the void! I currently work part time so am available for boarding Wednesdays and Fridays from 6pm onwards, and weekends! I’m also available for walks and drop ins at weekends, Tuesday and Thursday mornings, and some Monday/wednesday/fridays. I have a fenced back garden and have plenty of room for a crate in my house, or simply a bed to keep them in the kitchen overnight.
About: I have taken care of dogs for the last few years. We have always had dogs in our family. We lost one of our boys last year and have a 1 year old dachshund who is very sociable. He has some dachshund traits (barking) but he loves playing with other dogs, he is regularly around family dogs and goes to a dog day care one day a week too. I absolutely love dogs and would treat yours as they were mine 🐾❤️ I am currently working part time and term time only. So school holidays my calendar is fully open, during school term I can offer dog walking and boarding weds pm to Sunday. I live in a large flat with a very spacious living room and have a shared garden which only we usually use. We have lovely nearby walks and parks we especially love the local river and woods walks. I’m currently working part time but am able to look after your pets from weds lunchtime to Sunday. In the school holidays my calendar is completely open I live in a ground floor flat which has a communal garden around the back. We are close to beautiful walks and I walk my dog atleast twice a day and take out for regular toilet breaks
About: I joined Rover in 2022. I can't be more happier. I have a German Short-haired Pointer back home. I miss her so much so, spending time with others dogs help me a lot and keeps me busy. I have a fenced and long yard where pets can spent quality time. I am happy walking them around a couple of times per day. I work part time from home so i have plenty of time. I can boarding and receive visit everyday basically. I am quite flexible as well. Me and my boyfriend together take care of the dogs. So we both can easily manage ourselves to keep the dogs under control every time.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my childhood and adult life and only stopped after my 11 year old Newfoundland (one in the picture) died in 2019. My little ones are a bit older now (5 & 3) and although we don’t yet want the commitment of a new dog, it would be great for me and them to look after one or maybe two from same home for a few days at a time. I work from home, so will be in to look after the dog all day, and we are close to the Frome valley walkway and Frenchay common for walks and also have a large back garden with grass and fenced all the way around. As per description, I work from home. Only think we ask is for dog to be good with children. The children are very well behaved and love dogs so we don’t want to affect that. As above, fenced in yard. Will be able to go all around downstairs (not upstairs but we have gate) in day. We will keep in Kitchen at night as it has a stone floor so any accidents can be easily cleaned. In winter we will give access to garden as much as needed (via patio door or back door), but in summer doors will be open all day for them to have access.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in South Gloucestershire is £12

Max was due to walk Audrey at lunchtime for me to break up her day. I am so pleased that he was proactive and showed great care and responsibility by letting her play in the garden rather than walk in the extreme heat of the day. Feel so comfortable leaving Auds with him knowing he considers her welfare as carefully as I do. Thanks Max!
My two dogs had a lovely walk with Beth and her partner. She was fast at communicating and able to fit in a meet and greet despite me booking only a few days before needed. They were very professional, and left everything including the dogs clean and tidy! It is clear they both very much enjoy spending time with dogs. I will definitely book again.
Martin has been fantastic! Always on time, has taken him out for the correct length of time and rain or shine! He’s great with communication, I can’t fault anything. Morris has loved all his walks with Martin and came back all tuckered out. Feel lucky to found such a great walker! Thank you!
Lou is fantastic! In bed weather she braved the elements to take Agnes for a really good walk and introduced her to her husband too. Agnes left a little unsure, but returned super happy with Lou and their time together. She also updated me with pictures and the route, and saw she was 100% in good hands!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your South Gloucestershire. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poo and pee breaks, and distance travelled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in South Gloucestershire.

Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
