“Amazing! Meagan is a wonderful host and shared lots of videos and photo updates of Haggis! I would 100% recommend and will certainly be booking with Meagan again. Thank you so much!”


2. Naoise G.

“Naoise and Ethan made Floss very welcome and sent lots of photos to reassure us she was ok as we have never left her with a sitter before, only family. I would recommend them. They obviously love dogs and offer a great service.”


3. Katie D.
“Katie is a natural lover of animals and we were very lucky they she was able to look after our Frenchie at her own home whilst we went on holiday early this year. In addition Katie also helps out by regularly walking our dog when she’s free and we’re at work. Our Frenchie absolutely loves the attention she’s given and the extra opportunity for extra walks! Highly recommended!”

“Rachel is a great dog sitter ! I highly recommend her. I’ve left Eddie with her for 5 days and got daily updates from Eddie with pics and Eddie was really well taken care of. Will definitely use her services again!”


6. Steve C.

“No rating high enough exists. My dog had the best time, came back lovely and relaxed which is not usual for him staying somewhere. Loads of photos and updates really put my mind at ease. Couldn't recommend Steve (and family) highly enough. Will be going straight to him if I need a sitter in future.”


7. Victoria P.

“Thank you so much to Vicky and Trinity for looking after Enzo while we were away. The process from beginning to end was great. Vicky and her daughter trinity came to visit Enzo twice at home before he stayed over to make sure they were the right fit for each other and he absolutely loved them! We got regular updates on what Enzo had been up to as well as lots of photos and videos which the kids loved to see. We will definitely be booking in the future for more sleep overs 😊”


8. Kerry W.
“Kerry has regularly looked after our beloved dog, (needy) cat, and our crested gecko. Very reliable, trustworthy and understanding of our animals needs. The animals love her and always very happy to see her. I am a strong believer of animals being an excellent judge of character and it seems like they love Kerry more than us! Couldn’t recommend more highly.”


9. Haylie C.

“Haylie is just fabulous and Kojo loved his recent overnight stays. Haylie is just spot on with the care and attention given, treating Kojo like her own and he absolutely loves Haylie.”


10. Phillipa L.
“Phillipa is a truly caring individual who has a passion for caring for both people and pets. Having worked with Phillipa in a Veterinary environment, I have witnessed firsthand how much she is willing to give to ensure the pets in her care are happy and safe.”

About: I love my dogs and treat them like family I am at home all week and have lots of spare time for walks. I have a large back secluded and secure garden that is ideal for pet care. Plenty of time as I do not work and a have a large house and secure garden. My husband often works from home to support any walks and exercise.

12. Zosia L.

“Everything was fine. Saffy had a good time with Zosia. She was walked and fed and Zosia followed my instructions about saffy. I picked saffy up earlier than expected and Zosia was very flexible and able to meet my request. Thanks again.”


13. Alla M.

“Piglet had a great time staying with Alla and family. We've only used Rover for 1 or 2 night stays previously so were a bit apprehensive leaving Piglet with someone new for two weeks but we weren't worried about her at all! We got daily updates including videos and beautiful photos, she was well cared for and seemed very happy. When we arrived to pick her up she was fast asleep so clearly relaxed and tired from all her adventures at the beach! Wouldn't hesitate to book a stay with Alla again.”


14. Queli F.

“Queli is a lovely caring person and took great care of my two elderly toy poodles. The whole family are dog lovers and gave my dogs a lot of care and attention. She messaged me regularly with photos to show where they had been on their walks. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my dogs when I’m on holiday and I hope to book her again next year.”


15. Jessie H.

“Jessie was great with both my pups - they’ve had the best day and I got updates and photos all the way through. Highly recommend!”


16. Katy S.

“Katy is an amazing Dogsitter, my dog Finch was so comfortable and relaxed he didn’t want to come home. It was great getting daily updates about how he was getting on and seeing how well he’d settled with her 2 dogs. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely be booking in with Katy next time we go away.”

About: I have been a dog owner for 40 years. At the moment I have a seven year old black Labrador, Who I adore and he loves company. I am a retired nurse. My dog is my best friend and companion. Where ever I go so does he. We have daily walks at the coast or country parks. I have a fenced garden. A 7 year old Labrador to help keep them company. And a warm cosy home they can enjoy as they please.


18. Emma B.

“This is my first experience here at Rover, but I confess that I was afraid to use the app, but I had a great experience. Emma took care of Max as if he were part of the family, sending me photos and videos all the time. I have never felt so comfortable leaving Max and being able to travel with peace of mind. I will definitely hire Emma whenever I need it. ☺️ xxx”


19. Jake P.

“Jake was an excellent sitter and so kind too. We had to find somewhere for saffy to go whilst my partner was in hospital giving birth. Jake was so good, he listened to instructions, he fed her properly, he was so flexible and he even gave us a gift to congratulate us on the birth of our son. Will definitely be using Jake again. Thanks Jake.”


20. Shannon R.
“Shannon is the most loving and trusted person I know. I am always happy to leave my frenchie with her when I’m away as she understands her needs of needing to be kept cool and needing short walks. She is flexible with pick up and drop off times as well as reassuring when sending pictures and videos so I know my dog is enjoying her stay and is comfortable in her environment. I always recommend her to anyone I know!”
