“Fantastic service - extremely friendly and took the time to meet my two cats before the first drop in. Visits were all accompanied with great update notes and pictures - really reassuring and the cats looked super happy and comfortable. Great all round and will certainly be requesting future visits to look after my two boys!”

About: I've had pets (dogs and cats) almost all of my life, and became a veterinary nurse straight after leaving college. I just love animals! My vet experience means that I am happy to care for any pets who may have additional medical or care needs, and that I am pet first aid trained. I currently work part-time (3 days a week) and on my days off I spend most of my time at home or dog walking, so pets will have someone with them most of the time. We have a large fenced garden to play in, with grass and paved areas, so plenty of space for games and cuddles. I love dog walks on my days off in many of the local parks.

About: I have had pets most of my life and enjoy the time with them. I'm retired so have the time to spoil your pet while you enjoy knowing they are well looked after. Im retired and have quite a bit of spare time on my hands. I love having a chat with a dog while walking, its wonderful. My own cats are indoors only as I prefer the safety of this. I cannot have pets boarding at my home due to my own fur babies x

“Matthew was absolutely fantastic. He went above and beyond to make sure my pets were happy and cared for. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you Matthew, you were truly brilliant.”


About: I’ve looked after animals my entire life! My love for animals lead me to do a level 3 Animal management course in college! I then went onto study animal behaviour and welfare in University. While studying, I worked at a doggy day care. I cared for many dogs at the day care, including a wide range of breeds, ages and sizes. Doing this really give me an understand of the care needed at their different stages of life. After university, I then completed a dog grooming course and started working in a dog grooming salon. This gave me the opportunity to work 1-1 with each dog. Though this, I experienced many different behaviours, from anxious and nervous to reactive and aggressive. Also though dog grooming, I’ve worked with puppies all the way to senior dog and I’ve leant the best ways to deal with dogs at the different stages of life. I also did volunteer work at a vet practice, and I am also dog first aid trained. The welfare of the animals will always be my top priority! I am already doing dog walking and pet sitting outside of rover! Currently, I have complete availability of when I can pet sit! I would love to carry on with in this field of work and hopefully make it my full time job! I will always listen to what the owner says no matter what. If there are any concerns from me, I will always communicate them to make sure your pets are in the absolute best care. I am dog first aid trained, and I also have a car so if any vet tips were needed for any reason, I can get your pet there quickly and safely.

About: I’m an experienced pet owner with a plethora of experience in pet sitting / dog walking. I look after a sprocker spaniel on Mondays - so I am up for a challenge.

I used to have a west Ireland terrier that I loved dearly, from the age of 7, he became mine fully when I was 17. I have over 9 years of pet sitting / caring / walking experience. As a bonus, I volunteer at the RSPCA, socialising the animals! Pet care has become the essence of my routine! I do it full-time, Monday to Sunday, and have availability 24/7 (almost). This is subject to change. I will care for your pet in your home with the rules you provide me - I know every pet is different, for example, when people were required to pet sit my hamster, food MUST have been scattered for enrichment! - I can provide whatever care you demand, and I can do it with compassion and respect. I can ensure your pets remain happy and healthy whilst you're away or we're on a walk.

Louise L.
“I can't say enough great things about Louise she has been our daily dog walker and holiday pet sitter for the past couple of years! From day one, she’s been dependable, kind, and genuinely invested in the well-being of our dog. She arrives right on time and makes sure our pup gets plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. It's such a relief knowing our dog is in loving hands while we’re at work. What truly sets them apart, though, is the care they provide when we’re away on holiday. Shes looked after our dog (and even our cat!) during holidays, sending us daily updates, photos, and little notes that make us smile and ease our minds. We always return home to happy, healthy pets and a well-cared-for home. Their professionalism, communication, and obvious love for animals make them a rare find. If you're looking for someone you can completely trust with your pets, look no further. We feel incredibly lucky to have Louise in our lives!”


Kirsty h.
