About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and having had various pets including my own cat for 22 years, I know what it means to be a devoted pet parent. I am dedicated to providing exceptional care for your fur baby in the comfort of their own home, and offer reassurance and peace of mind whilst you are away. As an extra layer of protection, I am also fully DBS checked. I currently work from home, and am available for drop ins/home visits and walks from Mon - Sun between 7am and 7pm, up to three visits per day. I am also more than happy to do lunchtime visits if your pet just needs someone to check in on them in the day. Love and safety are my priorities, as having taken care of my own cat for over 20 years, I understand the importance of a safe and comfortable environment, and with someone you can trust. I take all aspects of your pet's care into consideration, including their individual nature, specific needs, and daily routine.
About: Dogs were a huge part of my childhood. From a very young age, it wasn’t unusual to find me curled up in their baskets, reading stories and chatting away as if they understood every word. The highlight of my day was always pulling on my wellingtons and heading out for a walk with them. So it came as no surprise to anyone when, during a sabbatical in India, I became deeply involved with a local street dog charity and missed my flight home! What began as a short trip, turned into 18 months of hands-on work. I supported the daily care of the dogs in the clinic and assisted with rescues, anti-rabies vaccination campaigns, puppy adoption events, fundraising, and community awareness initiatives. My passion grew, leading me to volunteer as a Team Leader with Mission Rabies during one of their first major drives in Goa. I also completed a training camp with WVS India, which further expanded my experience in frontline animal welfare. Alongside this practical experience, I hold a range of professional qualifications ensuring that every dog in my care is safe and understood. I am fully DBS checked and insured, hold a comprehensive canine first-aid qualification, and I am a certified EMMETT Technique Dog Practitioner. Additionally, I have studied canine body language with the IMDT. These credentials allow me to combine skill with intuition, offering care that is both knowledgeable and deeply compassionate. Today, this lifelong passion shapes how I care for every dog I meet. My goal is to provide a reliable, attentive, and high-quality service built on experience and professional training. Your dog isn’t just in safe hands—they’re in caring hands. Caring for your dog fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule is completely centred around the dogs I look after, allowing me to offer flexible, reliable support throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing company, I’m able to commit my full attention to your dog’s needs. I care for your dog in the place where they feel safest and happiest—their own home. I collect them from your home, walk them locally in familiar surroundings, and feed them using the food that you provide. When our time together is done, I leave them settled comfortably in their own bed, relaxed and content in the environment they know best.

I have a cat but he is very used to being around dogs!

About: Over 25 years experience as a dog owner from puppies all the way up to adulthood, also dog sitting for friends and family when required. I do not have any work commitments and want to spend my time doing what I love most which is looking after and caring for dogs I have a fully fenced secure garden and many lovely walks nearby. My house has plenty of room for the dogs to roam. I have a senior Labrador who loves company.
About: I have specialised in animal care for the best part of 3 years, working in veterinary clinics and setting up my own dog walking business in Cheltenham. We have recently relocated to Brackley. Since having a baby, I always wanted something that would enable me to be out walking every day and keeping fit. Being with dogs all day was defiantly the answer and that’s why we love Rover and the opportunity it gives us to be with all different types of doggies. I now run my own business and currently in the process of opening up our very own veterinary practice. This career switch has enabled me to be at home every day and it means I have 100% control over my day and time. As both me and my partner work from home it means there will never be a time that your little one is left by themselves, meaning we can help with dogs who have separation anxiety or just don’t like being by themselves too much. I am able to administer medication and completely cater to your doggies schedule so please let me know of any detail big or small that would enable me to make your dogs stay as special as possible with us. We have a big back garden and the door is left open pretty much all day so they can run and sunbathe on the grass all they like! I also have 2 mini sausage dogs myself who are still young so love to play but mainly enjoy a lot of sleeping and cuddles. Therefore any dog I do take on a doggy holiday needs to be friendly and well socialised with other dogs. Please be assured that we would do anything to make your dog feel as special and welcome as possible. I know we’re not able to replace you or the bond you share with your furry friend but we’re able to create a secure and loving home whilst you are away. P.S we love to keep you very regularly updated with photos and videos of their day and how they’re doing so let us know how frequent you would like updates, wether it be every few hours or every day- we understand you might need a breather aswell! Thank you for considering us to look after your little ones and we hope to meet you soon! I am available any time and also for last minute bookings, please give me a message with what you require and I will try my best to help out. We have got multiple areas for your doggy to relax on, whether it be their own quiet corner or on the sofa with us. They're welcome anywhere!
About: I have had animals my whole life of all varieties. I have had pets young, old and all the in between. I am confident in giving pets medicine if they need it. I am studying to become a vet nurse in uni, but I have time to pet sit or walk at many times in the day. I am not in uni all day everyday so I will have lots of time. Taking care of our pets is important, the day to day care is especially. Feeding and watering pets and exercising them is a necessary need. At home I make sure to check on my pets very often to make sure they are okay and happy.

About: Hi, My name is Jess and I have been dog walking professionally for 3 years and before that doing it on a ad-hoc basis while I was studying. I've always had a passion for animals and have been the go-to person for family and friends whenever they needed assistance with their pets. I love taking dogs for walks and caring for cats whenever I can. When I meet a pet for the first time, I make it a priority to learn all about them—their routine, habits, and personality and any health issues. Understanding these aspects is essential for me and making sure that the pet feels comfortable with me. This allows me to provide the best care possible, tailored to their individual needs. When I take a dog for a walk, I make it a point to provide a well-rounded experience. I ensure they get plenty of exercise while also allowing them to sniff and explore their environment, as that’s just as crucial as letting them run freely. One of my favorite activities is playing the “find it” game with treats. It’s a fantastic way to help them settle down after all the excitement of running around! I have a certificate of attendance that I have completed a CPD accredited activity in dog first aid and emergency canine care. I also carry a first kit around with me. As I'm currently living in a flat sadly I don't have a dog of my own but do have 3 fishes all named Gus! Known as the Gus's my wonderful guppy fish. Along side my fish I also share custody of the family dog Pumba (mini Yorkie 11 years old!) who is a lovable dog but lacks a braincell expect when it comes to food! When I was younger we had many family pets including hampers, degus and a very grumpy rabbit. So I would be willing to pet sit for your small furry friends. Looking forward to hearing from you, Jess I'm a self employed dog walker so this is my day to day which I love! I'm available all week to help with your pets. When I take care of your pet in your home I make sure I follow their routine to keep them as happy and calm as possible.
About: I moved to the UK 10 years ago from New Zealand where I grew up in a family home full of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits and a horse. I love having animals around so would love to help anyone out with caring for their furry family members. I work from home and would love some company! I can be relatively flexible but do work the usual 9-5 even though I am at home but am happy to keep any animals who may otherwise be home alone company during the days. I can go for walks at lunch time and after 5pm and do toilet breaks more frequently during the day. I would love to care for anyone’s pets as if they were my own. Happy to answer any queries you may have and can meet you first if you would like.

About: Hi, I'm Kirstie, thank you for looking at my profile! I have owned animals my whole life, we are definitely a family of animal lovers! At the moment we have eight cats, Joey, Lacie, Dynamo, Kurt, Saxon, Mini Big, Ginge and Gus, two long haired and the rest short haired. They all have their own unique personalities, but mostly have one thing in common, they love a fuss and a cuddle! We do have one cat who has her 'boundaries' and so I am used to those cats who prefer their own space! I could think of nothing better than spending my days getting to fuss over lots of different animals, cats are my first love but I have a soft spot for all animals 🥰 This is my full time job so I have plenty of availability! I work to their routine, in every way. They become family to me! I work to you and your pets routine, feeding times, walk times, where they sleep etc. Pets prefer to stay in their own homes, and I will do everything I can to make sure they feel at home with me.
“Had a lovely meet and greet with Ashika! Was very nervous as my dog is a bit of a barker, but quickly settled and allowed Ashika to throw her ball and give her treats, which was a huge success! Ashika was very chatty, friendly and easy to get along with. Can't wait to see how my dog bonds with her over time!”

Rather it is just for pop-in or in need of your furry friend a place to stay, the pleasure would be all mine. At home, I have a senior basset hound who absolutely loves all dogs and super interested in cats.

I know my schedule well in advance and it very rarely changes. I have a fenced front and back garden. I have 2 dogs of my own to keep your pup company. I take my own dogs on at least 2 walks a day and would do the same with your fur baby too.

About: Growing up I’ve always been around dogs, from little chihuahua‘s to Great Danes. I frequently dog sit my grandparents yorkie when they go away, and shes old and a little reactive. I can confidently say I can care for any size dog, however if your pup is on the larger side and has reactivity issues Im not the sitter for you as I don’t have the experience or knowledge to safely care for your pup. That’s not to say big dogs are a complete no! As long as they’re friendly I’ll be happy to meet a few fur friend of any size I currently work Friday mornings part time, so plenty of time for your pets needs. Im flexible with how long I can spend with your pet, wether they need to be with me 24/7 (there is an option for them to be able to come to work with me, however it involves a lot of car travel. Please feel free to ask more about this!) or just need some company for an hour whilst your busy I currently have one cat, and shes very low maintenance. I get most of my experience from pet sitting for family members or volunteer work at shelters. I currently am able to pet sit in your own home and drop-ins for any animal, as well as solo walks for dogs (group walks can be discussed if the dogs know each other well or live together!) Your pet will be played with and loved, and above all, cared for

I couldn’t recommend Cicely highly enough. She took on the walks at the very last minute and was exceptionally accommodating to our needs. Communication throughout the walks was impeccable with photos and regular updates, and Laika enjoyed their time together immensely. Will definitely be in touch the next time we need walks arranging. Thank you Cicely!

Ela has been amazing! She only walked my dog Brandie for 3 days, but you can see from the daily reports that Brandie looks so happy and even with how stubborn she can walking sometimes, Ela would play with her at home for the rest of the time. I would highly recommend Ela and would definitely contact her again in the future.
