Couldn't be happier with India's service! We were a bit apprehensive about leaving our senior dog Gabby overnight as she's recently gone blind and is still adjusting to our new house. We knew right away that we didn't have to worry as India was very calm, patient, and understanding. She sent me frequent updates and pictures so I could see how Gab was getting on, and we came home to a very happy and well looked after pooch. Highly recommend and will certainly be booking again in the future!

What a delightful young lady. My two poodles were so happy for Hannah to be looking after them, they hardly made a fuss of me when I returned home! She sent a daily update with photos - it was all simply perfect. She is completely trustworthy and reliable, which is hugely important when handing over your home and pets. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Hannah again.

Oscar is wonderful! My dogs love him. He took them on lovely walks and took excellent care of them. He is very tidy. He never leaves a mess. We are already booked in with him for another holiday in a couple of months. Thank you Oscar!

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.

Maria was a delight from start to finish. From our initial video call she instilled us with confidence and she never let this slip. She kept us up to date at just the right intervals with reassuring messages and photos and was ultra respectful of our house (including an overnight stay). We came back the following day to find a very happy hound and that is exactly what we hoped for. Will have no hesitation in booking Maria again, if she’s available - she’s great!

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!

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.

About: Hello! 😊🐾 My name is Katie and I am 25 years old. I have an online business with my partner and we love the companionship of an animal, having both had pets growing up and now pets together. We would love to look after your baby if you should entrust us. Due to our work, we are flexible and can offer time for your pet/s. We are also very active and enjoy walking and running, so whether that’s something your pet would also fancy we’d be more than happy to take them out and have a nice and enjoyable time with them! We have two cats - a Sphynx (2 years old) and a Domestic Longhair (4 years old). We would be absolutely over the moon to come and meet and take care of your cat. (Please see my cat care details for more info!). I have had experience of looking after family/ friends dogs while growing up and now on here too! We are very keen to meet and look after your dog and can follow the instructions for your dog in my care or in your home! Due to my work schedule’s flexibility, I can cater my work time around your pets routine. Available on weekdays, weekends and through the holiday periods. I would abide to your pets daily routine and if they have a certain schedule/ requirements I will make sure they are fulfilled to keep the consistency in their life.

Hannah was a perfect fit to look after my very large dog. She made sure his needs came first, including circumnavigating the heatwave to safely walk him. Hannah took the time to find out everything she needed to know about the dog, house and garden. I knew all were in safe hands.

About: Your Experience I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always had a huge love for them. Unfortunately, now that I’m an adult, my lifestyle doesn’t allow me to have a dog of my own, so I love getting my dog fix by looking after everyone else’s! I’m the designated sitter for my sister and two friends, regularly looking after their dogs whenever they go away for weekends or holidays. I also walk my neighbour’s dog in the evenings when they’re working late. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities, whether that means long walks, playing, keeping them company or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m also a regular runner, so if your dog is particularly energetic and needs more than a gentle stroll, I’m more than happy to give them the exercise they need. Every dog is different, and I’m very happy to follow whatever routine, exercise and care your dog is used to. My priority is making sure they feel happy, safe and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for morning and evening walks, weekend care and overnight stays when arranged in advance. If your stay away is during the week I’m available to work from home. I’m active and regularly go running and walking, so I’m very happy to fit your dog’s usual exercise routine into my day. I’m flexible and will always work around their individual needs and your schedule. Your dog’s safety and happiness will always be my priority. I’ll make sure walks are calm, enjoyable and suited to your dog’s individual needs, age and energy levels. I’m experienced with dogs and understand the importance of following their usual routines, boundaries and instructions. I’ll keep you updated during walks and treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own. Your home will also be treated with respect and left secure and exactly as I found it. Above all, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in safe, caring hands while you’re away.

We honestly cannot recommend Anna highly enough! She stayed in our home for a whole week looking after our 4-month-old kitten, Jasper, and we couldn’t have wished for a better person to care for him. From the very beginning, Anna was amazing. She took the time to listen to all of our instructions, understood Jasper’s little routines and quirks, and made sure he had everything he needed while we were away. She was incredibly thoughtful, responsible, and caring, which gave us complete peace of mind knowing Jasper was in the best hands. Anna kept Jasper entertained, played with him, gave him lots of love and attention, and always kept us updated with regular photos and messages. It meant so much being able to see what he was doing each day and know that he was happy, comfortable, and having the best time. The biggest compliment we can give Anna is how much Jasper loved her. He is only 4 months old and still getting used to the world, and although he doesn’t usually cuddle up with us very often, he became so affectionate and cuddly with Anna. Seeing him so relaxed and comfortable around her showed just how safe and loved he felt. It was clear that she built a real bond with him. Anna also looked after our home with so much care and respect. Everything was exactly as we left it, and she went above and beyond in every way. She was reliable, respectful, communicative, and genuinely passionate about looking after animals. Leaving your pet with someone can be stressful, especially when they are still a young kitten, but Anna made the whole experience completely worry-free. We came home to a happy, content, and well-loved kitten, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she gave Jasper. Thank you so much, Anna, for being so wonderful with Jasper and for treating him like your own. We would absolutely love for you to look after him again in the future and would recommend you to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and loving cat sitter!

About: I’m not just a pet lover; I’m trained in professional animal care. I hold a recognised qualification in Dog Grooming, which gave me invaluable experience in understanding canine anatomy and individual temperaments. This training also included Dog First Aid, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in safe hands. I am also DBS checked. I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals - from dogs and cats to parrots, lizards, and rabbits! I genuinely love their company and will always treat your pets with the same respect and high level of care I would give my own. I run my own pet photography business (which includes a hybrid sitting/photography service) called The Dog Frame. While your daily updates will usually be quick snapshots from my phone, I do like to bring my professional camera along for longer house sits/bookings to capture a few high quality images of your pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My schedule is quite flexible, and I can often work it around the needs of you and your pet. If I commit to taking care of your pet, my full and undivided attention will be given. I have trained in an educational setting in how to correctly and safely look after and care for dogs. I am able to recognise different behaviours, which can be helpful in certain situations, such as identifying a potential problem before it escalates - I feel this is important, as there can be much more to pet care than meets the eye. The safety and comfort of your pet will always be my top priority.

FAQs for House Sitting - South Kesteven

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in South Kesteven on Rover is £34.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 949 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Kesteven. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred South Kesteven walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

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.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .

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 Kesteven 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. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. 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.
