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 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.
About: I enjoy seeing other dog owners out and about with their canine friends and as I dont have a dog due to being a cat household I'd like to be with them by default !

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.

Our pets are part of our families, and I know how important it is that you trust the person they are being left with.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Gina to care for my cat, and I couldn't be happier with the level of care and professionalism she provided. Gina was incredibly thorough in gathering all the necessary information about my cat - from feeding preferences and habits to medical needs and emergency contact details. This attention to detail assured me that my furry companion would be well taken care of during my absence. During their visits, I received daily updates with pictures of my cat, showing that she not only fulfilled their basic responsibilities but went above and beyond to provide my pet with love, attention, and personalized care. It was evident from the photos that my cat was happy, relaxed, and comfortable in their presence. In conclusion, if you're searching for a cat sitter who will not only meet your pet's basic needs but also foster a loving and comfortable environment, look no further than Gina. Her exceptional services, attention to detail, and genuine love for cats have earned my utmost trust and gratitude. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of professional, compassionate, and reliable cat sitting services.”
About: I got my first dog when i was 10 and have never been without a pet since and im now 35 - absolutely love animals. Now, as a mum if 3, i have 3 children who carry my love for animals too. Weve had puppies, dogs, guinea pigs and now a tortoise. We are unable to keep animals full time due to work commitments and school so thought we could give our love to your pet.

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. Jack has gone out of his way to provide excellent service and I really couldn’t praise him enough! From one very happy dog owner and a super contented pup!

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 Norfolk 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.

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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
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.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
