1. Matt P.
“Matt has looked after my dog on a number of occasions and I am always relieved when he has availability as I know Daisy will be well cared and looked after! Daisy has lots of walks when with him, which he documents in photos and is treated like one of the family when at his house. I would not hesitate to use Matt’s services when I need a dog sitter and would recommend him wholeheartedly. 🐶”

“Our puppy Evie loves spending time with Jacki! I feel really confident that Jacki takes excellent care of her and is always so easy to communicate with. Jacki has also given us lots of helpful tips and advice about raising our first puppy.”


3. Charlotte H.

“Charlotte was very friendly and professional. It was the first time using a dog walker and it was very last minute and Charlotte was very accommodating, we had photos and videos of Primrose enjoying her walk. We will definitely be using Charlotte in the further and I’d highly recommend her. Thankyou for taking such good care of Prim xxx”

5. Letitia B.

“Letitia was fanastic, she took the time to meet us and to get a full understanding of our dog's needs. Our dog loved her walks with Letitia and she also left us a cute present which was a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend Letitia and hope to book her again in the future.”


6. Mona d.

“Mona is a great dog walker. She’s been walking our dog Sylvie for the last few months and I’d highly recommend her. She’s reliable and communicative about the walks. We always get photos and videos, and Sylvie always has a great time! Thanks Mona :)”


7. Charis T.
“Charis was wonderful with my slightlty spevial 6 year old rottweiler mongrel Finn. Originally he was supposed to stay just 1 night but after a last minute change of plans at my end, he ended up spending 2 nights with her. This flexibility was a real bonus. Finn enjoyed 3 walks a day and it was clear she made him feel completely relaxed and safe. It was reassuring seeing how she interacted with him, she is clearly a dog lover and I would happily leave Finn with her again. Really recommend for last minute, reliable dog sitting.”


8. Catherine G.

“Catherine came to meet Nico a couple of days before the booking. Nico was very excitable but Catherine calmed him quickly. Very experienced and would definitely book again.”


9. Kaye D.

10. Yuet C.
About: I’ve looked after numerous dogs over the years, and occasionally had cats stayed over. Patient and mindful of pet’s needs, always striving to provide the best care for your pets and ensure their wellbeing. Educated on appropriate handling skills and how to avert pets from dangerous situations. Mostly staying at home apart from days when I am in school or out on placements. Plenty of availability for boarding during summer and times are flexible. Staying with my family in a house with a fenced garden, ideal for toilet access and playtime off leash! Pets could choose to stay in the living room or outside my bedroom. My parents also love animals and will be happy to help look after your pets. Lots of dog friendly parks around the neighbourhood to go on walks!


11. Gillian R.
“Gill is responsible, trustworthy and caring with a big heart for animals. Whilst I am away, I have peace of mind knowing I can depend on Gill to provide safe, loving care to my pets.”


12. Hannah H.

“Just to say a big thank you for looking after and walking Luna with Mark & Roxy whilst I partied in Dublin! Both dogs have really taken to Hannah 😁”


13. Tashana S.
“Dear Rover.com Tashana has worked for me particularly when I’m away due to work or away on holiday. Tashana has a natural love for dogs and works very well with my pet. I have a Staffordshire bull terrier who is ultra friendly and a little excitable however Tashana was able to gather trust with some simple discipline exercises which helped to keep the dog walking experience healthy for both parties. Tashana has always been reliable, trustworthy and professional in her outlook when working with my dog, which is always important to me. On the whole I would always recommend Tashana to any of my friends if dog walking services are required . Many thanks Lorna Francis”


14. Rosie M.
“Rosie takes my miniature schnauzer Poppy out and I cannot praise highly enough, Poppy absolutely loves her regular walks with Rosie and always comes home shattered. Rosie is very punctual and always friendly, would highly recommend.”


15. Megan T.
“Megan and her partner always take fantastic care of my dog whilst I am away. Megan is very caring, attentive and loving to our dog Martha.”


16. Joanne P.

“Joanne is simply wonderful. Our rescue yorkie, Baxter, has quite a few issues but Joanne has always been kind, thoughtful & patient. She is experienced with rescue dogs & I get photo updates from the walks, which look gorgeous. Baxter adores her & gets super excited when she picks him up. Its a huge relief to have such a wonderful person helping us. One of Baxters issues is separation anxiety so next week Joanne is helping us by Dog sitting for a couple of hours after Baxters walks. I honestly can’t recommend Joanne highly enough.”

19. Marketa H.
About: I have always loved animals. My grandparents used to have a farm so I have experience with lots of animals. I used to keep many pets as a child including an iguana and a tarantula. We have a two year old very dog friendly Pomeranian girl called Stella so I can ONLY help look after small or medium-sized dog breeds either female or neutered male who are friendlly with toy breeds. I work part time in a nursery 3 days a week and always have weekends, Tuesdays and Fridays off so I could give the dog my full attention then. My husband works from home so he can take care of the dogs when I am at work. We own a 4 bedroom detached house with a good size garden near a large park. I have 2 children age 12 and 15 and they love animals and walks. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Kind regards, Marketa My husband works from home on the days that I work so my dog and your dog would never be left alone for more than few hours at a time when my husband needs to do school run or goes shopping for example. I have a good sized garden and a friendly Pomeranian puppy girl to keep your dog a company plus my children age 14 and 11 who love to play with dogs and absolutely adore animals.


20. John R.
“I can highly recommend John as a pet carer. He was a loving owner of his late beloved Newfoundland who escorted him on holidays all over Europe and he also frequently looks after my little dachshund when I am away. A very responsible pet loving family.”
