“Greg recently looked after our 16-week-old puppy for a 14 hour period to suit our requirements, leaving us free to enjoy our event safe in the knowledge that our little one was being cared for. Knowledgeable, considerate and polite, Greg provided regular updates via text, to provide us with peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Greg again and would heartily recommend him to anybody looking for pet-sitting.”

“I highly recommend Lauren as a dog and house sitter! She was on time, communicated clearly, and made everything incredibly easy. She took such wonderful care of Rue. We came home to a happy dog and a tidy house. I couldn’t ask for better care. Will definitely book again!”

“Zantea was incredible, she is reliable, proficient & caring. This was our first experience with our puppy being left with someone other than ourselves. She was well cared for , entertained & not anxious at all. The visit was for 8 hours. We will be booking Zantea for another session very soon. Highly recommended.”

“A big thank you to Jamie for taking great care of Flynn and Clover . They were apparently very well behaved for him . Can highly recommend as punctual and kept us up to date with photos and texts. Have already booked his services for later in the year . Very satisfied with his services 😁”

About: My family has had dogs and cats my entire life. Our previous pets were a beautiful cocker spaniel and a ginger male cat. Now our home has no pets and I would be happy to help with yours! I am an equestrian specialist and have just returned from global work. My entire BSc degree and then career has been shaped around animal training and care, please get in touch for any help you need! While living in the Caribbean, I would spend some of my time off helping at the dog shelter on my street. I would take the adult dogs out for day trips at the beach (it was so sweet!). I am currently in the office two days a week (wed&thur). For the rest of the week I can choose how much work I complete! This is a great time for me to help out with pets. They are able to have my full attention. We have a grass covered garden that is well fenced in. Directly next to our house we have many fields and lovely walks. I am happy to take on any of your pets routines so they are comfortable. There is a 9 and 12 year old in my home part of the time. The time they are here will change weekly. They adore pets, and are great with animals… please be in contact about wether any boarding will be around the children or not :)
“Chelsea looked after my 5 month old Doberman Rocco whilst i was away for a few days! Being a large, strong puppy, I was nervous about finding someone who could handle him. Chelsea was absolutely amazing with him. She was patient, loving and knew how to handle his energetic outbursts & wasn’t afraid to give him a time out if needed. Chelsea sent me regular updates and pictures. I returned home to a happy, healthy pup! Would definitely recommend! Thank you Chelsea! ?”

“Caitlin is a fabulous dog sitter! I was very nervous about leaving Stan as it was the longest we’ve been away without him, and he isn’t the easiest dog. Caitlin put my mind at ease, has looked after Stan beautifully and sends regular updates of all the fun they’re having. Caitlin is very responsible and I really trust her with Stan. Thanks so much for all of your help x”

“River was absolutely fantastic looking after our dogs, Cheddar and Waffle. She stepped in last minute over the Easter bank holiday, which we really appreciated, and made the whole process completely stress-free. She was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, giving us real peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, Cheddar and Waffle took to her straight away—they were clearly comfortable, happy, and well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend River and will definitely be using her again!”


“Luke came to meet us and our dogs Bear and Aura before our agreed date. He kept in contact with us and was punctual and polite. Made us feel at ease knowing he was there and although for a short stay the dogs were looked after. I would recommend Luke as Bear is a fussy dog but accepted Luke which is a thumbs up. Would use again in the future.”

“Ashika was great with our dog. Was a bit nervous leaving her with someone new but ashika made sure she took her time so she could get used to a new person in the house. Lots of updates throughout the day and followed our instructions. Will use again”
About: Hi I'm Giulia! I absolutely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I share my life with a highly trained Belgian Malinois, and my partner also works closely with working dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling intelligent, energetic and sensitive breeds, as well as maintaining consistent routines and calm handling. I often care for my friend’s dog when they’re away from feeding schedules to long walks, playtime and cuddles. Whether your pet loves adventure, gentle company or quiet companionship at home, I’ll make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I work three days a week (Tuesday - Wednesday - Thursday) and after my gym session I have plenty of time on my days off. I would love to walk dogs and take care of animals in the countryside. Happy to do overnights with your pups! I have plenty of space in the garden for you puppy to have a wander, the garden has a fence all around so it’s pretty secure.

About: Having owned my own dogs since childhood and cats in the last 20 years I am well versed in caring for them. I have owned a mini menagerie of animals with my own children as well as offering support to my local community to take care of dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, hamsters, hedgehogs, birds and the odd rescued creature. I am a part time student (mature) and so am at home most days during the week and weekends are certainly negotiable. I am able to base myself at another home if that suits both parties better. I love having dogs and animals in my orbit as I go for walks, enjoy snuggles and "chats" and pootling around with them - in between essay writing! I have a fenced garden and it is secure. I recently lost my labradoodle to old age sadly but I still have a cat, rats and am currently overwintering a hedgehog. I am equally happy to discuss staying at a clients home if that suits both our needs better.
About: I’ve taken care of 2 dogs for 18 yrs. Walking them, feeding them, bathing them, training them. Taking them to the vet. Keeping them good and safe company with other dogs. I am currently part time and have some free time on my hand. Having owned dogs previously - 2 of them - given me the experience to deal with dogs and caring for these beautiful creatures. I live in a flat, which is safe and surrounding area is perfect for walking. Lots of green and open area to run around/ walk and enjoy the outdoors.

South Northamptonshire pet owners share their Rover experiences
We had such a lovely experience with Danny and Ruby and felt completely at ease leaving our dog and cat in their care. They were incredibly reliable and so kind and understanding when our plans changed unexpectedly due to the loss of another of our pets. Their flexibility and compassion really meant a lot to us during a difficult time. They sent loads of photo updates, which we absolutely loved, and it was clear our dog was having the best time with plenty of long, happy walks and lots of attention. It made being away so much easier knowing our pets and our house were so well cared for. They were always quick to respond, thoughtful in their communication, and just genuinely lovely to deal with. We’d happily book them again in a heartbeat and would recommend them without hesitation. We hope to see them again before too long - we think the dog might be pining!

I have a very nervous dog, who is very anxious with strangers. I know my dog would have been very stressed, but it was a great relief to get home after a few days and see her looking well and even taking biscuits from Daniel. The cats were absolutely fine and didn't seem bothered that I was back home!! Thankyou Daniel. I don't like having to leave my pets, but when needs must, I would definitely ask Daniel first.
