“Megan was lovely to liaise with and was happy to stop by and visit Fiadh while we were out for the day. Fiadh was happy and snoozy when we got home, and from the pictures sent by Megan it looks like she had a fab time!”

“Dan took good care of our pup and we were so grateful to find someone with such short notice who could happily spend time with her and play/fuss her. Felt reassured with the discussion beforehand and would happily book again - she was happy and well cared for!”

About: I grew up with a Labrador, living with it for 10 years. My work and social life does not really allow me to have my own dog, but I love looking after them and can fit short term care around my other commitments. I am self employed as a legal consultant. The flexibility of this allows me to fit in dog care at various times throughout the day. I live in a secure ground floor flat. This is on a new estate with a large park with plenty of space for dog walking locally.

About: I’ve always loved and taken care of cats since a little girl, lots of experience with them. I have experience with dogs too, more so in recent years. I have had cats all of my life, and a dog of my own for the last 6 years. New to pet sitting outside of friends and family. I work part time from home with a very flexible schedule so visiting your babies will be easy! I will work around my drop-in visits. Both cats and dogs deserve lots of attention, cuddles and enrichment as well as their basic needs like food, water, clean litter tray etc. I will do everything I can to provide your pet with everything it needs! A drop in visit will last 30 minutes, unless upgraded to the 60 minute option. My preference is one visit per day, but I can do up to 3 visits for an additional price.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and proud cat parent to two lovely cats of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to find someone caring, trustworthy, and patient to look after your pets. I’ve always been happiest around animals and genuinely enjoy getting to know all their little personalities — whether that’s playful zoomies, cuddle time on the sofa, or giving nervous pets the space and reassurance they need to feel comfortable. I’m reliable, friendly, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and plenty of love and attention while you’re away, so you can relax knowing they’re in safe hands. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just a calm companion nearby, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am available to come you your home early mornings before 7:30 and evenings after 18:00 during the week, as well as any time during weekends. I care for pets by following their usual routines, giving plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, fresh water, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in their own homes
“We booked Jacki to check in on our 2 dogs while we both had to go away for the day. They both loved Jacki's visits and she took plenty of photos so we knew they were both safe and happy!”

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. We have a four year old 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 have weekends, Mondays 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 two teenaged children and they love animals and long 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 go shopping for example. We have a fenced, good sized garden and 4 bedroom detached spacious home and a teenage children who adore animals and help with dog walking.
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).
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 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.

Fay was amazing. She did 2 visits a day for 5 days for our cats when we were away. She gave us lots of updates, was great at communicating and our cats who can be a bit aloof absolutely love her and seemed so happy and relaxed . Really put me at ease when away knowing she was minding them . Have already rebooked her twice more

This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our cat with another person other than family. We were a little unsure of how it would go but Amy was brilliant, we couldn’t be more happy. Amy was friendly, reliable and communicated throughout, sending regular updates and photos which gave us complete peace of mind. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable person visitor/sitter.

Incredible communication and loved reassuring Scarlett was as it’s only my second time leaving Gus and he was having such a fun time every time I was sent photos and updates! Will definitely be booking Scarlett again as she was so prompt and efficient she instantly made me know Gus was in such good hands! Thanks again!

Carol looked after my two cats, Hendrix and Whitley, while I was away and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving them in her care. She sent regular updates and photos throughout, which was really reassuring, and it was clear they were both happy and well looked after. Would definitely recommend Carol and would happily book with her again.

Chantelle was a great help with our little fur baby when we were away for a few days. Knowing our Selina had some social time, cuddles, play, being fed and being checked on was really reassuring. Chantelle was easy to communicate with, friendly and warm we would absolutely book again next time we’re away. The whole process was super straightforward.

I had a great experience with Jenna! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring with Soho. I really appreciated the update and photo during the visit it gave me peace of mind knowing Soho was in good hands. She made sure Soho had her meal, water, and bathroom breaks, and everything was taken care of perfectly. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I’d happily book with her again! ⭐
