Heather looked after Chester very well, feeding him, emptying his litter tray and playing with him. She and provided me with an update and a photo on each of her visits. It was reassuring to know that Chester was in good hands and I'd happily recommend Heather to anyone who needs their pet looking after when they're away.

Chloe was just great- I felt totally relaxed after she met me and the dogs before the walks knowing we were in very good hands! On the day she coped admirably with Bob having to be on the lead in a Buster collar and paw boot in very wet weather. Highly recommend her and will ask her back if I need a walker/sitter for future dates.

About: ** New to this app, Happy to do a meet a greet before hand to make sure I am a good fit for you, or alternatively please reach out message or phone call** I’ve had dogs since the age of 6. I’ve always been an avid animal lover. From school I worked in a veterinary practice as an assistant for a few years before going off to study at university. I’ve had 4 dogs and 2 cats. All of them I have treated like my children. Currently I work longer days on Monday-Thurs which doesn’t allow me to have a pet of my own. However I do have availability on Friday - Sunday and if given notice I would happy take requests that are outwith these days as I love the aspect of caring for an animal. Please reach out to me if you have any questions and il be so happy to board your furry babies! I have availability at weekends and every second Friday. I don’t have many plans at the weekend as I like to potter around go for walks visit cafes and new places. I would adore a pet of my own but because of my longer days it isn’t feasible at this time, which is why I want to do Rover. I would love to spend time with animals and give them the attention and trust they deserve! As an avid animal lover I have worked in a veterinary practice and have also volunteered at the dog and cat shelter. I own my home in a lovely quiet neighbourhood with no traffic. I have my own back garden which is high fenced and gets the sunshine all day as it’s south facing. I live in a town where there are lots of fields and lots of trails to take your doggies out for long walks, I also enjoy taking my brothers dogs out to surrounding beaches as they love the ocean and running on the sand. I enjoy meeting up with friends who have dogs and we go to cafes to get coffee and of course the dogs come too. I live along and keep my warm cosy quiet and a perfect environment for those little ones that are extra timid.

Leah is a great cat sitter! She responded for my messages very quickly, respected my home, and left everything nice and clean. She's very professional and responsible. My cat was happy and well feeded when I was back.

About: Growing up, I've had the privilege of caring for a variety of pets, which has created my passion for all animals. With over 20 years of having dogs and cats in my family, I've attended puppy classes and taken on the responsibility of looking after family dogs. I enjoy going on walks, playing, and nurturing pets, and I'm well-equipped to handle any situations that may arise during these outings. My extensive background in pet care ensures that I can provide the love and attention your furry friend deserves, making them feel comfortable and loved while you're away. You can trust that your pet will be in great hands I currently work in an office just 10 minutes from my house, the hours are 9/5 Monday to Thursday and finish at 2.30 on a Friday. However I live with my mum still so someone will always be in to look after your furry friend☺️ working 10 minutes away is great as I can come down and take them out for walks on my break. I walk plenty myself throughout the day so would love to have a friend to bring with me! I have a reasonable size back garden for your pets to run around and play in. My family live around the corner with a golden retriever and a cockapoo, giving your furry pet plenty company on walks if allowed! All in all it is a safe and happy environment for your wee pet to be in.

You can tell that Jennifer has absolute love for animals. My wee dog can be a bit unsure of new people but loved Jennifer from the first moment of meeting her. Jennifer walked my dog for me when I was on holiday recently. She communicated constantly when I was away and sent loads of photos and videos so that I could see how my dog was doing without me! I don't even think she missed me because she loved spending time with Jennifer. I am going to use her for regular walks from now on.

About: With 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to pet care. What sets me apart from other caregivers is my lifelong exposure to animals. Since I can remember, I've been raised with pets, allowing me to develop a deep understanding of their needs and behavior. This experience ensures that I can provide attentive and compassionate care to all pets, ensuring their well-being and happiness while under my supervision. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet care seamlessly into my daily or weekly routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, or spending quality time with pets, I can adjust my schedule to meet their needs effectively. In my home or at the pet owner's house, safety and trust are my top priorities. Depending on the service offered, I ensure pets are in a secure environment where they feel comfortable and loved. With my boyfriend and me both being raised with animals, our home is a safe space where pets receive the care and attention they deserve.

About: I'm new to the world of dog walking and dog care, and while i do not have my own dog, i have always loved dogs. As a child i was always fond of playing and going for walks with my childminder and her 2 border collies and always enjoyed it. I have also been out for walks with my friend and her bulldog, and even took her for trips in my car and on the train. I have always loved dogs and would really love to provide care for them. I currently work Sunday to Thursday so can only currently offer services on Friday and Saturday. I will be going down to a 3 day work week starting the 27th of August and so my schedule will become more flexible, as i will also be available on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I am comfortable walking dogs in all weathers, and will ensure that dogs remain on leash near busy roads and streets. If walking a dog in the dark i will make sure i am wearing something reflective so we are visible to others. I will also carry a bag with essentials for your dog, such as water, treats and waste bags. I am also willing to meet with owner and dog before my services are required to get to the know the dog and become comfortable with them for drop in visits and get to know their personality and routine.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life and love them to bits!! I have experience with many breeds of dogs at all ages and love nothing more than going on long walks with them or cuddling on the couch. I am currently available at any time for your needs. I offer walks, house visits and overnight services with an aspect of care that you won’t find elsewhere. To me, trusting someone with your pet is a decision not to be taken lightly and I want you to know that I will always care for your animal as if they are my own. I do not offer home stays due to having a cat of my own who doesn’t like company but I am happy to offer any services required in your own home.

Pauline took care of my cat, Bleu, for several months and was absolutely wonderful. She was always reliable, flexible, and incredibly helpful, which gave me real peace of mind. Bleu is very selective with people, so the fact that he adored her speaks volumes. I’m truly grateful for the care and attention she gave him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

I was very happy with the Rover drop-in Service that Pauline provided and felt that my cats , TC (Topcat), Nora and Pudding were very well looked after during my holiday. TC found her knee for cuddles and Nora happy to be petted. Pudding is a little shy, however still posed for the group dinning photos. Really enjoyed receiving the daily postcards and photos. Would definitely recommend Pauline and will have her look after my cats again should the need arise. Many thanks Pauline ☺️ Donna
