“I have a very anxious dog who usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but I was so impressed with how quickly she felt comfortable with Georgia. There was no whining which is rare! She spent quality time playing and keeping my dog engaged, and I can tell Lily had a great time! Georgia also stayed late without any issue, which was a huge help and showed how reliable and flexible she is. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Georgia to anyone, especially if you have a dog who needs a little extra care and attention!”

“Oscar was absolutely fantastic looking after my dog Caleb and cat Stella while I was away. He had been walking Caleb for a while before the stay so they could bond. Caleb is very overreactive so not easy to handle but Oscar knew exactly how to calm him. Oscar sent pictures and updated me while I was away which was great and reassuring. Caleb and Stella absolutely adore him , we feel very lucky to have found such a lovely pet sitter and will continue booking him for dog walking duties . Thank you Oscar , you are a star”

“We highly recommended Katherine. She is calm and communicative, responsible and efficient. Katherine arrived on time for a handover, and our dogs immediately fell for her charms! All instruction was followed, with regular photo updates while we were out. We arrived home to two very contented doggos. We couldn't ask for better, and Katherine will definitely be on our short list for future sitters.”


About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.
“We had a great experience with Emily as our dog sitter. She was reliable, kind, and really loves animals. Our dog Arthur can be a bit shy with new people, but Emily was patient and gentle, and he warmed up to her quickly. It was clear he felt comfortable and well cared for while we were gone. We have already booked with Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

“Sandra was a total professional and our dogs were very happy in her company. Rosie is very nervous and even she relaxed with Sandra. I will be booking her again soon. Thank you so much Sandra.”
“Maria looked after our three boys for five days while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the moment we left, she gave us complete peace of mind by sending regular updates and lovely photos every day, so we always knew they were happy, relaxed, and being well cared for. She made sure they had their daily walks, lots of love and attention, and treated them as if they were her own. She also kindly accommodated us by taking them to a pre-paid local secure dog field, which we really appreciated. When we arrived home, the house was spotless and exactly as we’d left it, bedding had been washed for our return, which was such a lovely bonus after travelling. Most importantly, our boys absolutely adored Maria. It was obvious they had built a real bond with her, and they were genuinely sad to see her leave! We would recommend Maria without hesitation to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will 100% be booking her again in the future. Thank you so much, Maria.”

“Absolutely fantastic dog sitter! I was a little nervous about leaving Pip and Angus, especially as Angus is still such a young puppy, but I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She came to our home and looked after them overnight, and knowing they were able to stay in their own familiar environment made such a difference. Both dogs were clearly happy, relaxed and really well cared for. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing they were in safe hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to look after them again. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable and trustworthy to care for their pets. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Pip and Angus! 🐾”

“Cannot give enough praise for the amazing way she cared for; and played with my dog and two cats. I was admitted to hospital from a&e and she went out of her way to help at short notice; even collected keys from the hospital. Such a lovely lovely girl that I cannot thank enough. Will certainly be my first choice for future sitting. Thank you so much xx”
“Rhiannon was fantastic. She embraced a last minute dog sitting for our large dog. She made the process very easy, was eager to know as much as possible about Bruce to maintain his usual routine and maintained communication and sent us pictures which really put us at ease. House was spotless and couldn’t fault her, highly recommend and Bruce looks forward to being looked after again in the near future. Thanks Rhiannon.”

About: I have had animals all my life. I have a genuine love of taking care of them. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Guinea Pigs and horses. I currently own two dogs, a cat, Guinea pigs and two ponies. I have worked with animals most of my life. I worked for the animal charity Wood Green Animal Shelter on field section, worked at a dog kennels, cattery and also worked in the hospitality industry. I have a clean driving licence. I have good knowledge of taking care of a variety of animals which has given me the experience and knowledge needed. I love the psychology of animals and understanding their body language. I am a single mum of three daughters. Two go to work and one is disabled and goes to a fantastic school in Alconbury near Huntingdon. So im at home alone a lot. I have been looking for a job that can is flexible and active but also to do something I love and have experience doing. I have a lot of free so this type of work suits me down to the ground. My home has a big garden that is fully fenced all the way round. I have tiled floors indoors which is easy cleaning. My house is open plan but I do have a utility room for a quiet place.
About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do occasionally — it’s a big part of my life. I’ve grown up around dogs and have gained hands-on experience working in a kennel alongside other experienced dog walkers and trainers, which has given me a good understanding of different breeds, personalities and individual needs. I also have my own working-line Belgian Malinois, who is advanced trained. Living and working with a breed that requires structure, consistency and both mental and physical stimulation has given me valuable experience with training, enrichment and understanding canine behaviour. I’m currently an STSK9 student and working towards graduating in September 2026, so I’m continually developing my knowledge and skills in modern dog training and behaviour. I’m particularly passionate about providing dogs with the right balance of exercise, enrichment, structure and downtime. Most importantly, I genuinely care about the dogs I look after. I take the time to understand each dog as an individual and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, stimulated and loved while they’re in my care. I work with dogs full-time, so caring for dogs is a big part of my everyday life and something I genuinely enjoy. I also have my own Belgian Malinois, who is very friendly and gets on really well with other dogs. We love getting out for long walks and exploring together, so I’m used to keeping dogs active, happy and well cared for. I’d be more than happy to welcome another dog into our routine and give them plenty of attention, company and love while they’re with me. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and settled in my care. As I work with dogs full-time, I’m confident handling different personalities and making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise and routine they need. In my home, I provide a calm and welcoming environment where dogs can relax and feel at home. I also have my own Belgian Malinois, who is very friendly and great with other dogs and who is crate trained indoors/overnight. I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s individual routine, including their feeding, walks, playtime and any specific needs. I have a nice spacious back garden which is fully fenced (6 ft) and provide fun activities out there for the dogs.
“Jake came to stay overnight for us when we were away. He turned up on time and I felt really confident that the house and Zeus world be in excellent hands while we are away. He kept in regular contact with us and when we returned it was clear that he had taken really good care of Zeus and the house. Would recommend and look forward to Jake coming back to help us again.”

“Very much appreciated the patience and care Jon and his wife took whilst looking after Polly. She appreciated the relaxing walks in the orchard near the house and they were very understanding when managing her reactivity. I would absolutely book them again.”

“Diana is an excellent pet sitter! We were lucky to had found her. She came to see our pets twice before staying at ours for a week. She sent daily updates and photos. She left the house clean and tidy. We are definitely contacting Diana again if we ever need help with our fur babies and we are 100% recommending Diana to our friends too!”

Can’t recommend Alice high enough. One of my dogs has been very sick and needed special attention, I was quiet worried to leave her just in case but Alice was so confident to take care of her, that I went away so calm knowing my dog will be Fine. For my surprise my dog is actually loads better than before we left. The house and the garden are spotless and she even change the bedding for us as we were arriving late. I will definitely hire Alice’s services again.

Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in South Holland choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
