1. Jane B.

“This was my first time using Rover to look after my cat whilst I was away on holiday for a week. I'm so glad I put my trust in Jane to look after him. I was kept informed every single day with every check in and feed and even got lots of lovely pics of him enjoying being cuddled and stroked, it kept my mind at rest and I could relax and enjoy my holiday knowing full well he was being looked after by someone who also loves cats. Jane even went the extra mile and made sure I came home to an empty bin after my hols which was a really lovely touch. Thank you from me and Beau 🐈💞”

About: I’ve had my cat for two years and have always been naturally good with animals. I like dogs, cats, and birds. My friends and family often trust me with their beloved pets when they need someone to care for them whether it be a day thing or when they go away on holiday. Hello 👋 My name’s Ahmed and I’m a university student that provides pet care during the holidays. I live in a 5 person, 1 cat household with no children and plenty of space for your loved ones to roam. I am only taking in cats for day sitting or overnight boarding. I have one cat which only stays indoors. I have a fenced garden if your cat enjoys the outdoors however a leash of some sort would be required as cats are too good at escaping haha

“All I can say is this lady provides the best care for your fur babies. Beckie has looked after 2 of my cats, then my dog. My dog absolutely adored her. Wouldn’t have left him with anyone else. (Sadly he’s recently passed). When I think about another she will be my only choice. Trust me she’s amazing and so loving with them. 5 Star +++”

15. jason c.
About: I've always loved dogs (although my mum didn't like them). so when i was able to own my own it was amazing more like family than a pet. I've also had the pleasure of looking after other family and friends dogs. I've always wanted to work with dogs, so this is a full time job for me to give your dog all the attention that they need. I'ma dog walking service i don't have insurance to take dogs into my home (yet) but i do visit the home owners property to get to know the dog before any walk I do

17. Sophie T.
“I cannot recommend Sophie enough! She goes above and beyond every time we ask her to pet sit for us - always willing to go the extra mile. I know 100% that my pets are in safe hands and I never have to worry about the love and attention they receive. It’s taken a while to find someone I completely trust and I’m so grateful I found Sophie. My mind is always at ease whenever I’m away. Thank you for looking after my pets so well!”


18. Jacqueline F.
“I have used Jacki to pet sit numerous times as she is just a huge animal lover but professional at the same time. She manages the fine line of providing love and care without spoiling. I can trust Jacki to keep my dog’s interests at heart …. managing their routine, keeping to their training, giving medication when needed but also spending lots of time giving love and cuddles. She even doesn’t mind the mad arm licking.. it’s a pug thing! I have found Jacki to be understanding of my need to know how he is doing whilst I am away by providing updates of their day and lots of photos. I have found Jacki to be super organised.. she has a spreadsheet for everything and is extremely trustworthy as well as lovely. She always put me at ease as I can tell she cares about your home as well as your pet. She has also dealt with any sickness, visits to our vet, following advice on food, cooking bland food as well as cleaning up messes. She just gets stuck in and deals with the situation. I would definitely recommend Jacki and say that is she perfect for your customers and their pets.”


19. Amy S.

20. Sophia D.
“Sophia is wonderful with all animals - she is always kind and very capable, which can be seen with her own pets. Having been around her with cats and dogs, she responsible and attentive. You can guarantee your pets will be well looked after.”
