About: My Experience 🐾 I have experience caring for dogs in a home environment, including looking after dogs while their owners are at work, taking dogs on walks and staying overnight at people’s homes while they are away on holiday. Although I haven’t worked professionally as a pet sitter before, I have been trusted by friends, family and people I know to look after their dogs, and I have been paid for some of these stays and visits. I really enjoy spending time with dogs and have experience making sure they are happy, comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow their usual routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, company and any other care they need. I also know how important it is for owners to feel reassured when they’re away, so I’m always happy to keep you updated with photos and messages. I’m now looking forward to offering this service more regularly through Rover and building relationships with new dogs and their owners. 🐶❤️ Hi, I’m Zoe! I’m a friendly, caring and reliable person who has always loved being around animals. I’m naturally patient and affectionate, and I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s individual personality — whether they’re energetic and playful, or prefer a quieter day filled with cuddles and attention. Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I’ve looked after dogs for people I know while their owners have been at work or away on holiday, including staying in people’s homes to look after their pets. I’ve also regularly walked dogs and been trusted to make sure they’re happy, safe and well cared for while their owners are busy. These experiences have given me a good understanding of how important it is to follow a dog’s usual routine and make them feel comfortable and settled. I currently work from home full-time, which makes pet care a great fit for my lifestyle. Your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day, with time for toilet breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles and lots of attention around my working hours. I’m also available outside of work and at weekends, depending on the service and booking. I can offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy day care and boarding, and I’m happy to work around your dog’s individual routine and needs. I’ll always make sure I understand their feeding, walking, sleeping and general routine before looking after them. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires a lot of trust, so I’ll treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. I’ll keep you updated while they’re with me and will always prioritise their safety, happiness and comfort. I’m really looking forward to meeting some new four-legged friends and hopefully becoming someone you and your dog can rely on! 🐶❤️ Your dog’s safety and happiness will always be my priority. I want every dog in my care to feel comfortable, relaxed and at home, with plenty of love, attention and reassurance. I’ll take the time to get to know your dog, their personality, routine and individual needs, and I’ll always follow any instructions you leave for me. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure you know how they’re getting on while they’re in my care. As I work from home, your dog will have lots of company throughout the day, as well as plenty of opportunities for walks, playtime and cuddles. I’ll always treat your dog as I would want someone to treat my own — with patience, kindness and lots of care. ❤️🐶
About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was about 7, when we got our first rescue dog (King Charles Cavalier x Cocker Spaniel). I have always loved dogs and wanted to be involved in taking care of our pets. Later on we got two more rescues (Border Collies) and I had to learn how to make them feel safe and happy. Over the years I have spent lots of time taking care of them and taking them on walks. I have also fostered a dog while looking for its new home and taken care of my neighbours and friend’s dogs while they are away. I am currently working part time but I am looking to make this my full time job so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. My current job is also very flexible so I am able to work around it easily. Everyone has their own rules for their pets and I would like to help you stick to those rules or training for your dog so whatever your pet needs let me know and I’m happy to help.
“Milly was great with my Labrador. Very kind and caring with him. And very professional overall. Good communication, always let me know how he was, and sent some lovely photos of him. Would definitely recommend.”
“I was so pleased to have Ann visit and feed my cat whilst I was away for a couple of days. Communication was easy and I felt confident that my cat was left in good hands, which indeed she was. Thank you!”
About: We have both grown up with dogs and animals from a young age and understand that your dog is very much part of your family and your whole world. 🌍 Having had dogs from puppy’s we understand how to care for dogs of all age, and the love and attention they need each day.

He is neutered. Both myself and Isaac are home all day and have flexible jobs so are always happy to keep to your dog routine. We love fresh air and not rushing walkies. There’s plenty of time for playing in the house and garden and space for snoozing. 🍃 We have a dog safe house with plenty of space and a fully enclosed garden to explore. We have lots of toys and multiple dog beds. Ernie our two year old Beddy whippet is always happy to share and play with new friends. 🐶
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of pets, ranging from small mammals and companion animals. I have cared for tortoises, goldfish, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, cats, and dogs of all ages and temperaments. My experience includes supporting a senior dog recovering from a stroke, ensuring their comfort, safety, and rehabilitation while maintaining their daily routine and health needs. I have also successfully bred and raised dogs, overseeing a mother through three litters of puppies and providing comprehensive care for all puppies until they were eight weeks old. This included monitoring their health, socialization, nutrition, and early training, ensuring each puppy developed strong foundations for lifelong well-being. My approach to pet care is attentive, compassionate, and tailored to each individual animal’s needs, whether it’s maintaining specialized enclosures for reptiles, ensuring proper nutrition and enrichment for small mammals, or providing exercise, stimulation, and medical support for dogs and cats. I am currently working from home, which allows me to build pet care naturally into my daily routine. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I provide feeding, fresh water, exercise, enrichment, grooming where needed, and regular health monitoring each day. I also ensure living areas are kept clean and that each animal receives plenty of love, attention, and positive interaction. My flexible schedule means I am able to adapt to the individual needs of each pet, whether that involves walks, playtime, administering medication if required, or simply providing companionship. Whether it's playful dogs, curious cats, or small mammals, every animal is given a safe, happy, and caring environment where their welfare is my priority. Your pets will feel right at home with me. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where animals can relax, play, and thrive. Each pet receives individual attention, regular feeding, exercise, and enrichment tailored to their needs. Whether it’s cuddles for cats, walks for dogs, or proper habitat care for small mammals, I ensure every pet is happy, secure, and well-cared for while in my home.
About: I've been a pet owner my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, particularly large, high-energy breeds that require plenty of exercise and attention. I'm very active and enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, and keeping dogs engaged and happy. I provide a high standard of care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have recently moved back from South Korea where I have been an international school teacher for many years. I currently tutor online and am looking for ways to enjoy time in different cities/ have a change in pace of life! I have lots of time to care for pets during my daily schedule. I currently have no pets so want to use my energy and love to care for others. Due to a adventurous pet dog as a child, I am aware of the challenges that can be faced with energetic, big dogs so I will use this experience to keep your pets safe.
“Brilliant pet sitter, went above and beyond to look after my cat and the house, flexible to changing plans and just a lovely person. Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking for future trips away. :)”

Jack has been absolutely amazing! A genuinely lovely guy, my dog instantly warmed to him (not always the case!). I felt totally at ease knowing Jack was dropping in and that he would look after and care for my pup as I would.

If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
