Pet Sitting South Lanarkshire

“We had a great first experience with Jennifer looking after Olly. She came for a meet-and-greet beforehand, arrived on time, and was friendly, polite and professional throughout. She took Olly for a lovely walk, and although he is quite a nervous and anxious dog, he was calm, happy and well settled when we got home, which says it all. We’d happily book with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable and genuinely great with dogs.”

About: In my family we have always had cats but also all variety of animals to care from such as rabbits, a beagle and hamsters. I have cared for other peoples dogs by walking or feeding for years. I currently work part time Monday to Wednesday and I am a teacher so my schedule is fixed with plenty of opportunities for walking on the evening! We have a fenced in back garden with grass to sniff! There are loads of dogs in the area who are friendly and willing to speak to your babies.

About: Not had my own dogs before but have looked after friends previously. Happy to do multiple big walks a day as required and even runs if they like that! I currently work doing workshops in schools which is mostly term time and during the day. Some days there isn’t any work in a school and just working from home one or two days a week I have a large grassy garden for a pet to run around in which is secure. My fiancé and I also regularly take walks in the week and larger walks on the weekend and do love to hike so if your pet enjoys big long walks we can happily get them bagging some munros!

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.

“Charlotte was great, totally reliable and loving towards our cat. She went above and beyond to care for Daisy. We loved the photos too. We came home to a contented cat. Would highly recommend Charlotte to any pet owner.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always had family dogs growing up. I’ve regularly cared for friend’s and family members dogs while they’re away, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they stick to their usual routine. I’m reliable, caring, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I’ll always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. With my current schedule, I’m generally available in the mornings or evenings, giving me plenty of time to provide walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I enjoy spending time with animals, so looking after pets is something I genuinely love doing. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I understand that they’re not just pets—they’re family. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable by sticking to their usual routine, giving them plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and ensuring all of their needs are met.

About: I have lots of experience dog sitting many types of breeds of all shapes and sizes! I board and dog sit frequently for friends and family and have growing experience with lovely Rover clients. I also have vast hands-on experience caring for my own much-loved dachshund, Nelly, who has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs! Raising her has given me practical experience with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, and providing a safe, loving environment for my girl! I have a genuine passion for dogs and enjoy spending time outdoors, nature walks and exploring new places together. I’m also happy taking dogs on safe car journeys when needed. My priority is ensuring every dog in my care feels happy, comfortable, and treated as if they were part of my own family. I understand that every dog deserves plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away just as I like whilst I am away. My dachshund will be present unless specifically requested for during booking but she is friendly and loves to play. I have experience in issuing daily medication and monitoring dogs behaviour, diet and intake. I encourage owners to bring their dog beds for comfort during sitting in my home but dogs are all welcome on our sofas with lots of cuddles 🛋️🛌🐾 I am a current primary teacher in Glasgow. During my school holidays I love to dog-board, sit and walk! I love all things animals and walking. I treat dogs as my own, and a part of our family. I have a friendly and welcoming mini dachshund at home in our flat and a garden downstairs. All dogs welcome in our home - even on our sofa! If you are looking someone trustworthy and caring for your little one, please reach out!

“Olivia followed instructions amazing and took care of our precious cat Willow. Olivia changed times to suit the cat and even thought to leave food out! when she wouldn’t return one day! (Totally normal for cats in summer) I would recommend Olivia in future and would definitely use her services again.”

About: Hi! 👋🏼 I'm Dionne! - Your dogs new best friend! Dogs have been at the centre of my world for years, and now caring for them is what I do full-time.🐶💖 I'm a very friendly, loving and caring person. I love to uplift people who are around me, as it makes me happy seeing others happy and seeing the passion that comes out of people when you support them in doing what they love. - I love animals too, Especially dogs! Dogs hold a special place in my heart, they are such wonderfully social creatures, and I adore getting to know all their unique personalities. I pride myself on creating a safe, loving experience where your pup feels supported, comfortable, and truly cared for. Whether it’s walks, play, or just being a calm, reassuring presence, I’m dedicated to making your dog’s time with me as happy as possible. I don't have a dog of my own, but I'd absolutely be honoured to take your dog out on one of my walking adventures or have them stay over, for as long as you'd like. Just let me know which service you'd like, and I'll most likely be available to help you. -------------------------------------- 💖 A personal note: On my profile, you’ll see photos of two very special boys — Star (The whippet) and McCoy (The Lhasa apso) — Who both hold a permanent place in my heart. 🌟 Star was a very happy whippet and my very first Rover booking. We became best friends instantly, and I was lucky enough to see him regularly. Always asking for sausages (even after I’d already given him two!), he brought so much joy to our walks, occasional playful moments, and cuddle sessions. Star didn’t play much, being an older boy, but every moment with him was special — from him running up the stairs to greet me, to his sweet little whippet face. He passed away on 03/08/23 at 5:00 pm, and although my heart broke hearing the news, I’m forever grateful for the bond we shared. Star will always be a cherished part of my Rover journey. 🐾 McCoy was one of my first regular bookings and quickly became my wee best pal. A quiet soul, he’d come for affection on his own terms, sometimes joining me on the couch before toddling off to curl up in his bed like the cosiest wee boy. He had his playful moments too, especially after a good walk, and I’ll always remember his gentle, comforting presence. Both Star and McCoy left paw prints on my heart that will never fade. Though they’re no longer here, the love and memories we shared will live on forever. 🌈❤️ -------------------------------------- Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s my daily routine and my full-time passion. 🐾 I'll try to go out of my way as much as possible to help you with whichever dates you'd prefer ✌🏻❤️ Your pup will be treated like family here: ✨ A safe, loving home where they can feel comfortable ✨ Plenty of walks, play, and cuddles tailored to their personality ✨ Regular photo & video updates so you always feel connected I enjoy making you happy, allowing you to comfortably leave your best friend in my hands, where you'll receive regular video and photo updates as much as you'd like and being able to show you that your best friend is being loved and cared for as if they were my own. I appreciate each and every one of my clients, and I especially appreciate my regular clients who allow me to regularly have fun with their but now, also my best friend, due to their regular bookings. I'm happy to now be your full time Fairy Dogmother, Haha! 🌸 Why pet parents choose me: Because I go beyond basic care. I take the time to get to know your dog — their quirks, comforts, and even anxieties. If your pup has special needs, I’ll work with you to make sure they’re supported every step of the way. Every booking is personal to me, and many of my clients have become like extended family — their dogs are just as excited to see me as I am to see them. That bond means everything. 💖 📸 A little extra: I studied photography in college, so capturing your dog’s personality is one of my favourite parts of the job. Clients often tell me how much they love the photos I take — some have even framed them for their walls! Knowing those memories mean so much to you makes my heart so happy. I love sharing the joy these pups bring into my life, and I’d love for you to be part of it too. 💖 Search "Dionne’s Dogs" on Facebook and follow along for updates, sweet photos, and plenty of wagging tails. 🐾📸 🏡 Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first. I provide a secure, fenced home where I live with my mum that has plenty of space for play and rest. And because I don’t have a dog of my own, your pup gets my undivided love and attention. There are a few grassy areas near me where I like to take dogs and let them have a good run around. I also make sure to learn about each dog’s individual needs — whether it’s special care, anxieties, or just their favourite daily routine — so they feel at home and fully supported.

“Went away for a weekend. Chiara sent me a update mid way through weekend which was good. She even came back in the day i was returning to let the cats outside for me. ”

“I booked with Jennifer as a last minute request as I couldn’t find anyone to check my gerbils during the Christmas period. Jennifer was not only able to accommodate to this, but was super professional and made sure I could leave at easy, being super nervous about leaving my girls alone for the first time. I would definitely recommend her and Susan and Roberta will be happy to be looked after by her again.”

About: When I'm not looking after animals, you'll usually find me outdoors — I'm currently 120 Munros into all 282, and I love hiking, travelling, and both indoor and outdoor bouldering whenever I get the chance. I grew up in the north of Scotland, mostly in Shetland and Scourie, and I've spent a lot of time travelling and house sitting in those areas too, so I'm very comfortable in remote or rural settings as well as busier towns and cities. Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember — I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, cows, and horses, so looking after them just feels natural to me! I've been pet sitting for over 16 years now, both here in the UK and while travelling around Europe and Asia, and I love that animals have been part of every adventure along the way. At home, I've got two dogs and three cats keeping me busy (and very loved). Some of my favourite memories come from a hobby I did with National Geographic, working with an NGO called Target that helps protect animals from poachers. I got to work alongside animal experts from all over the world in India's national parks — setting up cameras and spending time with tigers, tiger cubs, snakes, tortoises, and dogs. It was an incredible experience and taught me so much about how different animals think and behave. I've cared for pets from tiny month-old puppies and kittens all the way up to a wise old 14.5-year-old collie, across loads of different breeds. I've also helped rescue dogs settle in — from Romania, learning to trust humans and live alongside other pets, and from northern Scotland, helping them become calmer and more confident, learning to walk nicely on a lead, stay relaxed around other dogs, and not bark so much. Animals have always had a huge place in my heart, and I've looked after them both one-on-one and in multi-pet households, so whether it's a single pet needing full attention or a busy home with several animals at once, I'm comfortable managing it all. Honestly, what I love most is getting to know each animal's own personality — because just like people, no two are ever the same! I take the time to understand them, play with them, and learn something new every single day. If you're looking for someone who'll genuinely care for your pet like their own, I'd love to meet them! I'm very flexible when it comes to pet care, and I'm happy to fit my schedule around yours rather than the other way round — whether that means early mornings, late evenings, or something in between. I know how much it means to feel completely at ease while you're away, so I love sending photo updates of your pet enjoying their time with me, so you can see for yourself that they're happy, safe, and well looked after. Communication is a big part of how I work, so if you ever want an update or have a specific routine you'd like followed, I'm always just a message away. I try to respond to your queries within 30 minutes, unless I'm away hiking or somewhere with no network — but even then, I'll get back to you as soon as I'm reachable! 🙂 When I'm caring for pets in your home, I like to keep things as close to normal as possible, so your pet babies can stick to their own routine rather than having to adjust to mine. I spend time playing with them, talking to them, and giving them plenty of attention throughout the day — walkies for dogs, playtime for cats, and anything extra you'd like me to do to keep them happy and comfortable. Your home and your pet's usual habits always come first, so just let me know what works best for them and I'll follow your lead. :)
