“Esther and her family were wonderful and couldn’t have been more accommodating. We visited Cornwall for a wedding and needed last minute care for our Cockapoo, Penny. It was our first time using Rover and Esther immediately put our minds at ease, sharing updates and pictures throughout the day. We were able to enjoy our evening knowing how cared for Penny was by such a kind and loving family. We would recommend Esther to everyone!”
“We found Laura through Rover and it has proved to be a very successful arrangement as Laura and her husband are excellent sitters and we feel very comfortable leaving Barnie with them whenever we need to. Communication is always a priority and it's great to see the messages and photos of Barnie looking so happy.”
“Shaun was so patient with Luna. She’s an anxious dog, super attached to her family, so it was a new experience for her. It took her a while to warm up, but she seemed very happy and content once she’d settled in. Shaun was very professional and kept me updated through regular messages and photos. It was good to see her having fun while I was away. Thanks Shaun for taking the time to settle her in and make her feel at home.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! This was a last-minute booking, and they were so accommodating and helpful. They made the whole process easy and stress-free. My dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring hands. I truly appreciate everything they did and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Marietta took great care of Nova and send us some cute pictures during the day. We met before, so that all was clear for the day itself. Would recommend! Monty was also very cute 🐾”
“Tracey and Sarah have given Belle an amazing time, lovely walks and lots of play time, and has made a new friend with their dog River. Tracey kept me well informed with what Belle was up too, lots of regular photos. I recommend Tracey and we will definitely be using her again. Thank you xx”
“It was my first experience with Rover and I’m so glad I did. Harriet was excellent, I had text and video reports showing Jago having a wonderful time. I highly recommend Rover, especially Harriet”
About: I am a designer who works from home, after always having dogs I miss their company a lot. Instead of getting a dog I decided to host dogs in my house. I live in a cottage in St Austell, tucked away in a quiet part of this seaside town. I have a lovely big garden with sunshine and shade where they can play or potter about. The cottage is cool and quiet and has everything a doggy would need. Your dog will never be left alone as I work here too. I only take one dog at a time or dogs from the same household so they will have a really personal experience that will be tailored to them and their needs. There is a wealth of glorious beaches and river trails only minutes away for playtime, walks and relaxing. I try and make every day like a doggy holiday even if they are only staying a short time. I have owned dogs myself as well as having grown up with one always in the household. I had my last dog from a puppy and fully trained him, we did agility classes together too. I have also owned a rescue dog in the past who I worked closely with a trainer for to understand his body language and his needs so I do have experience with dog behaviour. I work from home during the week so your dog will have lots of 1:1 attention as I need to take regular breaks away from the screen. I always walk in the morning, lunchtime and the end of the day as a way to get outdoors and it’s such a treat to do that alongside a doggy friend. I can offer a pet free, smoke free house with a fenced in garden. Please do bring anything your dog likes along to make them comfortable, maybe a bed and some favourite toys for playtime
“Willow had a great stay with Michelle overnight whilst we were at Eden. I met Michelle for a virtual meet and greet before booking and knew immediately that Willow would be in great hands. We came back to a very happy doggy, and it was clear she’d been really well looked after and had a lovely stay. I’d definitely recommend Michelle and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again next time we're in the area 😊”
“Conny has provided excellent care, once again, for my 7 year old collie. I love all the photos and messages she sends and feel totally confident that my dog is having as much fun and exercise, or more, than when she's at home. Thanks so much Connie.”
“Excellent dog sitter. Provided care and fully attention to Freddie. Lots of photos and videos to let me know what he was up to. Very much recommended, hopefully rebook again soon. Thank you Sophie.”
“Morgan helped us out last minute with our 8 month old puppy. He has had the best time! She sent some lovely photos, gave him a proper little holiday, popped on some relaxing sounds to settle him at night. Woody was really well taken care of and has come back knackered and happy all of which has made leaving him for the first time so much more stress free! Lovely home and partner, great environment for a puppy, great communication and really accommodating - couldn’t ask for more. Thoroughly recommend!!”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have always loved caring for and learning about them. Over the years I’ve had many different animals of my own, and I currently have my little dog Kai, who is a very important part of my family. My love for animals has also been influenced by my dad’s work in wildlife conservation, so I’ve grown up with a real appreciation for animals and their individual needs. I’ve also had experience working in a veterinary practice, which I absolutely loved, and I’m now starting my training to become a Student Veterinary Nurse. I’m naturally very patient, gentle and attentive with animals, and I really enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I understand how much trust is involved in leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll always treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care. I’m currently taking some time to focus on gaining more experience with animals before starting my training as a Student Veterinary Nurse. My days are generally quite flexible, so I can fit around your pet’s usual routine rather than expecting them to fit around mine. I enjoy getting outdoors, going for walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting and dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy doing. I’m happy to discuss individual routines, feeding times, walks and any other requirements your pet may have, and I’ll always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my biggest priorities. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big decision, so I’ll always take the time to understand their routine, personality, likes and any specific needs before looking after them. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment, and I’m also able to welcome pets into my home where appropriate. My own little dog is friendly and used to being around other animals, and I would always make sure any introductions are done carefully and at a pace that is comfortable for everyone. I’m responsible, attentive and safety-conscious, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and most importantly, I’ll treat your pet as one of my own.
“Abi is an excellent dog sitter. Both of our dogs adore her! They were so excited when she arrived to look after them for the weekend, it was wonderful to see. I had no concerns leaving them in her care, and revived regular pictures and updates; they had a fabulous time and I'm sure Abi will become a regular in their lives whenever we are away.”
“Waffle (cockapoo/bichon frise) had a wonderful stay with Sam and her family. He was looked after so well, enjoying the walk to school and back with the young ones and woodland walks. Sam was happy to give him his daily ear spray and daily pill in his food. A very loving home, we would highly recommend and hope Waffle can stay again! Thank you! Mel & Mark xx”
“for zulu first time staying overnight and hearing that she bonded with all the family is amazing. Zulu truly loves coming to yours and spending time with all the family especially the spending time with the kids and making you all smile alot. She truly is spoilt when she there which is so lovely to see especially when i come and pick her up as this is what she gets a home. Thank you so much for the service and the update with photos and videos of zulu first time trying the car and the beach. You guys are truly outstanding and love the fact that you guys get to enjoy spending time with Zulu and enjoy her just like i do ❤️”
“George was an amazing dog sitter! He was reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. George kept me updated and treated my dog like his own. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking him again.”

“Brilliant service, genuinely cared and looked after our dogs whilst we were at a wedding and reduced our stress on the day - highly recommend Lucy , and her genuine love of animals- sending us lovely pictures and putting a smile on my face 🙏🏻”
“If I could give more stars I would!!! Fine has been incredible. Our little family hasn’t been away abroad before and with a 1&2 year old in the group I had a lot to organise. Gina, from the moment we met, made us feel relaxed and in safe hands. Our small holding included goats, chickens, rabbits and cats and they all adored her! She went above and beyond, from brushing to talking to them to reassure when they timid ones showed signs of feeling anxious. We are so grateful! And will definitely be using Gina again. She’s opened a door for us to be able to go on more family adventures Thank you Gina 🙏🏻 xx”
About: Family cats and cat sitting has taught me to love the unique way of cats. I love to make sure they are looked after and have enough attention depending on their preferences! I have 2 cats of my own currently.
“I would give Emily 10 stars if I could! We had to leave our two cats for two weeks and Emily was absolutely the perfect choice! We have a very extroverted cat and one who panics and had stress induced paralysis at meeting strangers from abuse in her early life and from day one Emily was somehow able to bond with both of our girls. She took pictures, videos and gave detailed accounts of all of her visits, she put a smile on our faces every time we heard from her! Our anxious cat seemed to absolutely love Emily, she let her give her a stroke and came out multiple times when Emily got there, our extroverted cat was the exact same and loved her visits! We asked Emily if she could do an extra day after we booked which was incredibly last minute and marked unavailable on her schedule, and despite leaving for Paris the same day, Emily still came and visited our girls to make sure they were okay! Em carried out everything we asked of her and went above and beyond on many occasions, even using some of her own rubbish bags for emptying the litter as we had run out of them ourselves. We will 1000% be asking Emily for her services again if we have to leave for a while! We were so worried about leaving the girls as we had never been away longer than two days before but as soon as Emily followed up with us after her visit we knew we had made the right choice and we had absolutely zero stress during our time away. If anybody is in the same position as us and you’re worried about choosing the right person to take care of your fur babies, Emily should absolutely be your first choice! A massive Thankyou again to you Emily! You are an absolute star 💗⭐”
“I could not recommend Gyvania more enthusiastically, she has been just amazing. Our cats have been clearly relaxed, happy, not in the least bothered about being away, and not at all 'in a mood' once we got back. Gyvania took great care of the coming and going from the property and was reliable, easily reachable, ready to answer any questions, supplied videos and understood and carried out instruction with the utmost care. We will definitely be hiring her again!”
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for cats and have plenty of experience caring for them. I’ve had my rescue cat, Goose, for the past seven years, so I understand how important patience, routine and making a cat feel safe and comfortable can be. I’ve also looked after other people’s cats through cat sitting, caring for their individual routines, feeding needs and personalities while their owners are away. I’m very happy to give cats plenty of attention and affection when they want it, while also respecting their space when they prefer to do their own thing! I understand that every cat is different, especially rescue cats, and I’ll always take the time to build their trust rather than expecting them to immediately be comfortable with a new person. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and make sure they’re happy, safe and well cared for in their own home.
About: I have looked after two frenchies for close to 10 years. I have had family dogs since I was born. Both have very strong personalities and can be a handful but I believe dogs should be dogs. They bring such joy to our lives! When I am not available, my parents are more than happy to look after your doggos.xx I am available every day of the week and have a very flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere, which means I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. House sitting and longer stays work especially well for me. I live in a family home with a large, fully fenced garden, which is safe and secure for dogs to enjoy supervised outdoor time. I’m very mindful of each pet’s routine, boundaries, and any specific instructions from the owner. Whether caring for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and settled, with lots of attention and consistency.
About: I grew up with four cats in the house, so I’ve had hands-on experience caring for cats from a young age. I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and understanding their behaviours, from when they want attention to when they prefer their own space. I’m very attentive to their needs and routines, including feeding, litter care, playtime, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I understand that cats can be sensitive to change, so I always take a gentle and patient approach to help them feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
“Abi was really great. She kindly popped over to meet Fremmy and Mowgli before her first lunch visit and I could tell straight away that she was a kind and professional person with a real love of animals.”
About: I’ve been cat sitting full time for the last four years and am experienced in play time, lap time and leave me alone time. I’ve looked after cats of all ages, administered different types of medication and am also experienced with particularly shy cats.
“I highly recommend George. He took care of our dog in a very reliable and careful way. Our dog got along very well with his two spaniels right away. He spent a lot of time outdoors with our dog. His dedication was exemplary. Communication with him was quick and smooth.”
About: I moved to Cornwall for university and soon found the passion for surfing. I now live in Cornwall and have been looking after dogs for several years now. Moving to Cornwall on my own has made me very independent, but also very flexible. Which means pet care fits easily into my day to day routine. I have a few small jobs that I can schedule around the dog sitting, so I'm able to give pets plenty of time and attention. I thrive on having a routine and living an active, healthy lifestyle. When looking after pets. I understand how important routine is, including regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, especially as different breeds have different needs. With my active lifestyle, i genuinely enjoy walks, runs, and spending time outdoors, so keeping dogs happy and exercised comes naturally to me. When I'm caring for pets in their own home, I'm always respectful, tidy and minimal, making sure everything is kept just as the owners expect.
About: I've always been a cat lover and had cats on my own. Currently I have Tiny, pictured in my profile pic who I brought back from Vietnam! I've pet sat for a number of people in Cornwall who so far have also had chickens, pygmy goats, fish, dogs and ducks. I've also been a live in dog walker in Switzerland with work away. So far this has been though word of mouth and now I'm looking to do it even more as I love it! A bit more about me: In my usual day to day I am working on my DIY tiny home project near Wadebridge and working as a wildlife/ permaculture gardening. If you need me to step in so you can go exploring then I'd love to help!
About: I’ve had dogs of all sizes my whole life, growing up I’ve always been keen to walk, feed, wash and care for them. I have most of my experience with boxers, French and English bulldog puppies from birth. I currently study at uni, so have lots of free time for short and longer walks, especially during holidays and weekends. I’m more than happy for any special arrangements you may need or a negotiable price to work for us both. I’m sure your dog will become comfortable and happy in my hands so you can feel safe and content with their care :) P.s much appreciated if I am able to bring my partner for longer house sits (of course we can meet prior) I’m currently studying geography at uni but have lots of availability around my schedule to walk or provide pet care, plus, my car for longer adventures! Although i am at uni and cannot care for your pet in my home, I can walk and pet sit in your own home in however ways you require
About: My family has always owned dogs so I have a lifetime of personal experience. I volunteered and multiple animal sanctuaries and zoos growing up and I worked for pets at home for more than three years where i specialized in dog care. I am available most days and weekends for any bookings and will normally be happy to take bookings on short notice. The safety of the pets come first and for that reason I would make sure to supervise them and if in the garden make sure its enclosed and has no open gates. I work part time and have a very flexible daily schedule. The best thing to do is contact me with the dates and times you require and I will do my best to accommodate. The safety of your pets is my top priority, on our walks I like to keep them on the lead untill in certain they will listen to commands from me.
About: I have lots of experience feeding, spoiling and taking care of cats (and really enjoy doing so!) I have been trusted to take care of neighbours cats, trained my kittens and am the sole carer of my senior cat (who I administer medicine to twice daily)

“Absolutely fantastic our two border terriers absolutely love them! To the point today they fan in so fast I had to let go of the leash and that was our boy who is normally a right cling on! Am defiantly going to use them again such a lovely caring couple!”
“We needed someone to have our dog Bertie for a day whilst on holiday, so we could take our children to Camel Creek (not dog friendly due to livestock). Louise was very patient with Bertie who was embarrassingly vocal about me leaving him! She took him for a walk and reassured me that he was calming down so we could relax and enjoy our day out. Louise sent lovely pictures and kept me updated throughout the day and Bertie was having fun sniffing out cheese when we went to pick him up. Thank you!”
“Rusty had a lovely day! Such a lovely couple, with a warm, welcoming and relaxing environment. They were fantastic with Rusty and handled him so well. We’ll definitely be using them again and would 100% recommend them!”
“Chelle was an absolute dream to have as a dog sitter - we got to do a virtual meet beforehand of the humans and dogs, I got updates, photos and videos throughout the day which was so reassuring and I came back to a very hapoy dog. Very clear that Chelle knows what she is doing and cares about the pups. Will definitely be looking to book in again when I'm down :D”
“Abigail has been amazing with our 2 dogs. Ella is people reactive in the home and Abigail spent time getting to know her and making her feel safe. They are now the best of friends and I feel so relaxed leaving them both with Abigail, knowing they are happy and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Abigail to anyone.”
“Conny is just fantastic and all the reviews saying how great she is with your dog and keeping you posted are just accurate ? we aren't locals so this let us enjoy our anniversary meal while not worrying about our dog. Thank you again Conny!”
“Tammy was great with Murphy, especially since Murphy can't be left alone, she was really understanding of this. Murphy loved his days with Tammy and I loved getting photo updates throughout the day! Would definitely use Tammy again”

“Terri was super helpful looking after our dog Coco at short notice. This included picking her up in her car, taking her for a walk on the beach, looking after Coco in her home for the day and allowing us a later pickup. Terri was good n communication, very friendly and good on animal welfare.”

“We were in need of a last minute sitter while on holidays near Padstow. Carly could not have been more accommodating and easy to deal with. Professional, great communicator and highly trustworthy. Best of all, when Nutmeg came back for day 2, he bounded into Carly’s home like it was his own having clearly enjoyed his prior visit. Will definitely be using Carly again.”
About: I trained me Sprocker Spaniel who is still a puppy. This involved basic commands and recall. He is well behaved, well socialised and a happy dog :) I run my own business so have good flexibility during the week and at weekends. I won't be out for more than 3 to 4 hours and I can walk, feed and socialise them inbetween. I will be there to look over them most of the day..I may leave for 3 to 4 hours but will make sure they've been walked and fed before so.
About: With years of loving experience, I provide tailored, compassionate care for every pet. From energetic dog walks to cozy cuddles, my dedication and attention to detail ensure your furry friends happiness and your peace of mind. I work part time so have plenty of time to attend to your 4 legged friends, from dusk-dawn I will happily be there to help. I live by acres and acres of land to take your pups and pooches for long walks but can also break trails down for smaller walks if needed.I have a large comfortable home where many cuddles can be given.
“Annabelle is such a chilled, caring and reliable dog sitter, Teddy loved her and he was relaxed and happy when we returned. I would definitely recommend her and will 💯 be using her again :)”

About: I have always had dogs in my Mothers home in Hastings. I have looked after family and friends dogs too. I have enjoyed training dogs- its so rewarding. I love walking in forests and on the nearby Par beach (5 Mins.) I keep away from traffic where possible. I miss our pet dog, Daisy of 16 years of age but I have fantastic memories & photos to cherish. Locally I have looked after 4 or 5 dogs over the last 2-3 years. I look forward to providing a home from home for your dog, with plenty of cuddles. FYI- There is a new Vetinary clinic 5 mins walk from my home, incase of emergency. I am 5 minutes walk from a dog friendly beach. I love to walk every day. I have several parks and public coastal paths to choose from. It's nice to have some snacks on hand as a reward (by agreement with your dogs requirements.) I live in a single storey detached bungalow with a rear garden, which has solid boundary walls - so escape proof. I will ensure that your dog is kept occupied, with toys and we will go on regular walks in the area, keeping away from traffic. I will feed your dog in accordance with your instructions. This will be a home from home, with lots of cuddles. Look forward to meeting you & your dog. I shall keep in regular contact during the stay.
“Emma was brilliant – super reliable and trustworthy, showing up exactly when we agreed and doing everything we discussed with pics and great communication. Saffie instantly loved her. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you Emma 😊”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’d walk neighbours dogs growing up which gave me a strong understanding of their different personalities, needs and behaviours from an early age. In addition I’ve spend 5 years caring for exotic animals which has taught me patience, attention to detail and confidence handling a variety of temperaments. I am a proud Cavapoo owner which has deepened my understanding of daily routines, training consistency, exercise needs and the importance of trust and companionship. As a dog walker, I bring reliability, compassion and genuine enthusiasm to every walk. Whether your pup loves energetic adventures or prefers a steady, relaxed stroll, I tailor each walk to suit their individual needs. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing are always my top priority, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I work full time, but I make dog care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available mornings and evenings during the week for walks, feeding, playtime and lots of love and attention. I also have the flexibility to WFH throughout the week when needed, which can absolutely be discussed prior to booking. On weekends I’m fully flexible and happy to dedicate extra time for longer walks, outings, cuddles or special care routines. Your dog’s comfort, happiness and consistency are always my top priority and I’m committed to providing a safe loving environment. I’m lucky to have a good sized garden that is fully gated and securely fenced, providing a safe space for dog’s to enjoy fresh air and outdoor time. It’s perfect for supervised play, short exercise sessions, or simply relaxing in the sunshine. Safety is always my priority so dogs are never left unattended outside and I make sure the space stays clean and secure at all times.
About: I have taken care dogs since I was 14, training guide dogs, including the family dog and voluntary work which led to paid work for walking neighbours dogs and at a dog kennel walking dogs and cleaning kennels. I have been dogsitting on and off for 16 years and rescued 3 dogs. I have done more regular sits since a friend from church asked me to dog sit, then I used Trustedhousitters as a sitter for 3 years and have done 12 different successful sits of which a few have been asked back, so I also know how to take care of people’s homes and multiple pets in the home. Your dogs will be happy with me and treated like family, they will have play time and rest time and I always stick to the rules that you have set for them and their meal times including what they eat. I would never feed your dog human food or over treat them or punish them. If I am sitting I would take them out for a walk in the local areas up to 3 times a day but they will have plenty of toilet breaks. If I am only walking your dog, I will keep them on the lead and go for as much time as they need. Your dog will be in safe hands with me. I am an at home full-time student, I start my last year in October and finish in May 2027. I will have time to go for dog walks anytime as I can pick my days and times to study. I cannot bring pets into my home currently as my 2 cats are the proud owners but I can meet you for a pick up or take care of a dog at your home
About: I have looked after senior dogs with life limiting illnesses and anxiety over the years. I focus on maintaining calm environments for anxious dogs and psychological stimulation. Hi there! I am Michelle (Chelle) , a dog-loving person who treats every pup like family. Whether your furry friend loves long walks, belly rubs, or just snoozing in a sunny spot, I am here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have several years of experience with rescues and often look after friends and family's dogs. I do work Part-time in a hybrid community role, so i have flexibility to ensure your pup is given quality care. This also givies me lots of time to share a little extra love to your pup! My wife is home evenings and weekends.
About: My husband and I have housesitted on another platform for 2+ years in the UK, US, Germany and Japan. Meeting and caring for the animals is always our favourite part about the trip and would love to continue. I’m currently self-employed and working remotely on my masters degree. I am available to dedicate as much time as needed to your beloved pet(s) to make them feel at ease and comfortable. I do not offer pet care in my own home as I believe this creates a barrier between them and me. I want to feel like they trust me. I follow routines set by owners and try to make their routine as normal as possible. If they are happy with you they are happy with me.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have always loved caring for and learning about them. Over the years I’ve had many different animals of my own, and I currently have my little dog Kai, who is a very important part of my family. My love for animals has also been influenced by my dad’s work in wildlife conservation, so I’ve grown up with a real appreciation for animals and their individual needs. I’ve also had experience working in a veterinary practice, which I absolutely loved, and I’m now starting my training to become a Student Veterinary Nurse. I’m naturally very patient, gentle and attentive with animals, and I really enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I understand how much trust is involved in leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll always treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own pets. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care. I’m currently taking some time to focus on gaining more experience with animals before starting my training as a Student Veterinary Nurse. My days are generally quite flexible, so I can fit around your pet’s usual routine rather than expecting them to fit around mine. I enjoy getting outdoors, going for walks and spending time with animals, so pet sitting and dog walking is something I genuinely enjoy doing. I’m happy to discuss individual routines, feeding times, walks and any other requirements your pet may have, and I’ll always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my biggest priorities. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big decision, so I’ll always take the time to understand their routine, personality, likes and any specific needs before looking after them. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment, and I’m also able to welcome pets into my home where appropriate. My own little dog is friendly and used to being around other animals, and I would always make sure any introductions are done carefully and at a pace that is comfortable for everyone. I’m responsible, attentive and safety-conscious, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and most importantly, I’ll treat your pet as one of my own.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for my own pets as well as family and friends’ dogs and cats. Through this, I’ve become confident handling a range of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy in my care. I love long walks, playtime, and keeping dogs mentally stimulated with games and enrichment activities. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and routines, whether that’s high-energy exercise or a more relaxed pace. I’m also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, and administering simple care when needed. I am currently a graduate working in hospitality, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m available for both regular bookings and last-minute requests, and I’m happy to fit pet care around your routine. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a fully fenced garden where dogs can play securely, and my friendly dog is a great companion for social pets. I always supervise interactions, follow your pet’s routine closely, and can crate your dog if needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities at all times.
About: I’ve been house and pet sitting full time for the last four years. I’ve played with puppies, calmed curious cats and even bathed a tortoise! I’m a non-smoker, tidy, respectful and will ensure everything’s running smoothly so you can have a worry-free trip. I’m a freelance writer so my time is very flexible. I’m happy to discuss your requirements and work around your schedule including evenings and weekends. I’ve been house and pet sitting full time for two years so have plenty of experience. So far, 30 home owners have trusted me to keep their home secure and pet happy.
About: I love meeting and looking after dog and puppies, I have a 1 year old puppy myself and know how much they are apart of the family and how hard it can be to find someone to look after them I can walk or drop-in around my work schedule so I would be able to do mainly morning but I do always have Sunday and Monday off every week I have a very playful 1 year old puppy who have had since she was 10 weeks old, we wild not be able at this time to take any dogs home for a long period of time
About: I trained me Sprocker Spaniel who is still a puppy. This involved basic commands and recall. He is well behaved, well socialised and a happy dog :) I run my own business so have good flexibility during the week and at weekends. I won't be out for more than 3 to 4 hours and I can walk, feed and socialise them inbetween. I will be there to look over them most of the day..I may leave for 3 to 4 hours but will make sure they've been walked and fed before so.
About: Hi, I'm Bella. I have always loved dogs especially sight hounds and previously owned a whippet called Poppy. I enjoy nothing better than taking a dog for a long walk on the beach or through the woods, seeing them enjoying themselves and being sleepy and relaxed after a good run. I have previously looked after greyhounds, sausage dogs, Italian Greyhounds, Whippets, an Irish Wolfhound cross, Frenchie, Labrador Siberian Husky’s, Cockapoos and Cavapoos and understand all dogs and breeds have different needs & requirements to feel happy, safe, secure and loved. I love getting to know their individual personalities and understand that pets are like members of the family and treat them as I would my own dog with love, care and affection when in my care. I am able to keep pets company all day ensuring they get plenty of walks, toilet breaks and are well fed. If dogs are nervous or uncomfortable around other dogs I ensure that they are cared for one individual dog at a time. I ensure dogs are on leads unless I have guidance from their owner that they have good recall and are happy for them to be take off lead only in safe places. I can offer in home care in peoples homes or my own which has a large garden.
“This is our second experience of working with Sophie and honestly can’t fault her. Her communication is great. She sends lots of pics and the dogs look very happy in her company! Thanks Sophie”
“Lara is a very friendly walker who my dog really liked from the start. We chatted about Daphne’s needs and she listened and took in board what I said. She’s clear about what she can offer in terms of availability which I find so helpful.”

“Shaun was so patient with Luna. She’s an anxious dog, super attached to her family, so it was a new experience for her. It took her a while to warm up, but she seemed very happy and content once she’d settled in. Shaun was very professional and kept me updated through regular messages and photos. It was good to see her having fun while I was away. Thanks Shaun for taking the time to settle her in and make her feel at home.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! This was a last-minute booking, and they were so accommodating and helpful. They made the whole process easy and stress-free. My dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog was in such caring hands. I truly appreciate everything they did and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Tracey and Sarah have given Belle an amazing time, lovely walks and lots of play time, and has made a new friend with their dog River. Tracey kept me well informed with what Belle was up too, lots of regular photos. I recommend Tracey and we will definitely be using her again. Thank you xx”
“It was my first experience with Rover and I’m so glad I did. Harriet was excellent, I had text and video reports showing Jago having a wonderful time. I highly recommend Rover, especially Harriet”
“Conny has provided excellent care, once again, for my 7 year old collie. I love all the photos and messages she sends and feel totally confident that my dog is having as much fun and exercise, or more, than when she's at home. Thanks so much Connie.”
“Excellent dog sitter. Provided care and fully attention to Freddie. Lots of photos and videos to let me know what he was up to. Very much recommended, hopefully rebook again soon. Thank you Sophie.”
About: Growing up, we always had dogs at home, so I truly understand that dogs are family. Since joining Rover, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, including elderly dogs, nervous or anxious dogs, energetic puppies, and dogs that need medication. I’ll always treat your dog as if they were my own - with lots of love, care, and attention to their individual needs and personality. For new clients, I’ll always ensure to set up a meet & greet prior to accepting the booking, to make sure we are a good fit for each other. I work full-time in a 9–5pm office job, but I do have the flexibility to work from home. For boarding / day care and house sitting bookings, I’ll work remotely from home for the duration of the stay, so your pets will have company throughout the day. I’m also available to walk them before or after work, and/or during my lunch break. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I can usually fit these in quite easily around my work schedule - especially if you’re very local to me! Please note: some bookings may require me to put a request in with my manager to work from home. These are almost always approved, but on occasion I may be required to go into the office. For that reason, there may be some booking requests I have to decline. I’ll always double check my availability and confirm with you before accepting a booking. My rates are based on the assumption that your dog is comfortable being left for occasional short periods (e.g. 2–4 hours). Any alone time would always be based entirely on your dog’s routine, comfort and needs. We can chat about this more at a meet & greet prior to booking if needed. For dogs who cannot be left for that long (e.g. less than 2 hours), I offer constant-supervision care. This requires extra planning and time, so a small additional fee applies. I will also ensure to adhere to any requirements that you might have - this might be regarding walks, training, feeding, medication, or anything else.
“Morgan helped us out last minute with our 8 month old puppy. He has had the best time! She sent some lovely photos, gave him a proper little holiday, popped on some relaxing sounds to settle him at night. Woody was really well taken care of and has come back knackered and happy all of which has made leaving him for the first time so much more stress free! Lovely home and partner, great environment for a puppy, great communication and really accommodating - couldn’t ask for more. Thoroughly recommend!!”

“Abi is an excellent dog sitter. Both of our dogs adore her! They were so excited when she arrived to look after them for the weekend, it was wonderful to see. I had no concerns leaving them in her care, and revived regular pictures and updates; they had a fabulous time and I'm sure Abi will become a regular in their lives whenever we are away.”
“Waffle (cockapoo/bichon frise) had a wonderful stay with Sam and her family. He was looked after so well, enjoying the walk to school and back with the young ones and woodland walks. Sam was happy to give him his daily ear spray and daily pill in his food. A very loving home, we would highly recommend and hope Waffle can stay again! Thank you! Mel & Mark xx”
