“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 ❤️”
“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!!”
“Sophie was amazing with my 2 dogs. One suffers with bad separation anxiety. I got updates daily and both boys loved their time with Sophie and Spencer. She was attentive, understanding and I managed to feel safe knowing they were with her. She definitely helped my anxious dog come out of his shell a lot more, so will definitely book with her again.”
“Hannah & Jordan took such wonderful care of Woody, he has had a brilliant time with multiple walks per day in different locations, swims, brushes and cozy sofa time and cuddles. We felt really bad that we couldn't bring Woody away with us and were nervous leaving him but Hannah & Jordan sent us lots of photos and messages each day. They were also flexible when we were delayed by an hour. It feels as though Woody has had a holiday and has been so well cared for! We would definitely recommend Hannah & Jordan.”
“I left for a much needed trip with my Hudband for 8 days and Anindita treated my dog as her own with love, care , hospitality and total professionalism. She sent us updates regularly and photos and even a few videos ; which relieved our minds of any problems or quirks with our dog Jimi . We have a sensitive dog with a quirky tummy at times and Anindita went above and beyond to help him with some special dietary assistance. She is the best sitter I have ever had and as a special act of kindness ; she gave our dog a little birthday celebration with s video ; since we could not make it back home until the day after his special day . I highly recommend her and her dear husband was very kind with my doggie as well. Thank you so much , as a person with a sensitive dog always worries and through this app Rover I have found the best sitter ever !”
“Once again Alison was perfect. Bobbie was so content & comfortable. I received regular photo & messages to reassure us all was ok. We cannot speak highly enough of Alison. Thank you, you are a star.”
“I was worried about Winston going away as he rarely goes anywhere. Mark and Fee allowed us to visit first and made me feel far more relaxed and reassured. Winston was more than happy to stay with them and calm and happy when we picked him up. They updated me to let me know he was ok. Highly recommended, thanks Mark”
“I would highly recommend Imogen for your dog sitting! They are a very competent family and made my puppy Rusty feel quite at home. I was super confident leaving Rusty with them for the weekend. Rusty had so much fun with Norman too. Thank you so much!”
“Couldn't of asked for a nice person to look after Rocco would highly recommend her and her lovely family Rocco didn't want to come home he had a lovely stay and Stacey up loaded pictures for me everyday. That made me feel very at ease as he's never stayed any were before ❤️”
“I was initially nervous to leave Woozle as she has always stayed with family before but Haley was wonderful with her. She sent plenty of pics and video updates and Wooz was clearly happy and well cared for throughout. I can't recommend her highly enough and would definitely use her services again!”

“Jess and Joel were absolutely brilliant. Wilson and Olive settled in straight away. I had regular photos and updates. They looked liked theynhad made themselves at home and made friends with Milo too. Lots of walks and cuddles. I would absolutely recommend Jess, Joel and Milo xx”
“Molly and Josh were so good with our Rottweiler Romeo! Very attentive and took him on loads of adventures. Not sure he wanted to come back 😂. Would definitely recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Romeo with them again xx”
“I was worried about leaving my dog as she's a rescue that we're still learning about, but Michelle was very reassuring. I met her and saw the home in which Dilara would be staying. Michelle and family looked after my dog as if it were their own. I had regular updates and Dilara really was given the best care and attention, even radio and fairy lights at bed time to help settle her. I've booked Michelle for our next trip already. It really makes a difference knowing Dilara will be so well looked after!”

“Emma was really great. Came and did a meet and greet with my anxious (and sometimes hostile) cat, and she was more settled than she generally is with new people. She was punctual and communicative for both the visit and the stay, and the cat seemed happy and well cared for, and the house looked just how id left it.”
“Karolina is fantastic 👏 did a fabulous job of looking after my 3 cats!! Especially since I had so many things for her to do she was so considerate and nothing was too much trouble! Fit me in last minute too! Kept me in the loop and came home to happy cats 🐈 highly recommend her and will be using her for any future sitting!! Thanks so much 🙏”
“Very pleased with Tori as my cat sitter. She immediately came across as experienced and friendly with the cats. I had no worries at all when i was on holiday, as she kept me informed at an appropriate frequency. She will be my first choice again for my next holiday. ”
“Emily was great. She was available short notice for us after a friend wasn’t able to look after our cat and she really helped us out. Excellent communication, flexible in terms of our pets needs, attentive and caring. Will definitely use again :)”
“We highly recommend Réka, she took excellent care of our cat April. April can be quite shy but she really took to Réka. She kept us updated with personal messages and was so friendly and polite.”
“Thank you, lovely Eleanor! 🩷 The second time you’ve kindly looked after our cat/s. Forgot to leave you a review last time!! 🙈 Very trustworthy, kind and considerate. 🙏🏼 We definitely recommend Eleanor. xxx”
“Leaving a pet in the care of a stranger is always a very stressful experience for me and my daughters. I am very glad that I found Lauren J. on this platform (Rover), who took care of our cat with full professionalism. Ozzy is not a homebody type, he is sometimes distrustful etc. but Lauren coped very well with everything. Additionally, Lauren's great idea was daily updates (message and photos) of what was happening, how our cat was behaving etc. I will definitely choose Lauren to take care of my cat in the future. Lauren loves animals and I recommend her to everyone as a caregiver.”

About: -Flexible, positive method Dog Trainer -Pick up & Drop offs available on request -Only accepting dog friendly non-reactive Dogs for boarding -Training enquiries welcome I am Amber, a puppy behaviourist and dog trainer working in Plymouth. I am working towards my Level 3 qualification in Assistance Dog Training, and have plenty of time to interact with dogs while I study from home. I have trained and cared for a range of dogs over the past few years, and raised my own Sprollie Scout and Assistance Dog Sparrow. I am also a Musical Director and Project Manager, I work from home most of the time but do often work some evenings. Housesitting: I am delighted to offer my services as a house-sitter at competitive rates, as I work both inside and outside of the house during my week. Please ensure your dog is happy home alone for up to a full working day, and has a flexible schedule, if you’d like me to housesit for you. 24/7 sits available, depending on availability, at £15ph. Light cleaning included (bedsheets changed, surface wiped, vacuum cleaned) Extra cleaning is £30ph. I work from home most of the week, as I work as a Project Manager and Musical Director, so I'm only out for around 10 hours a week! I also work as a musician, but that means I am at home composing most of the time, and of course going on lovely walks with my dog. I have a big house with a dedicated Dog room and lovely grassy garden! Dogs are absolutely allowed in the rest of the house during the day. I have plenty of doors in between their main room and the front exit, so dogs are very safe and secure in the house. PLEASE NOTE: I will only accept non-reactive dogs with no vocal issues. I live in a terraced house with 2 resident dogs, so unfortunately I cannot accept dogs who are reactive/ will reactively bark/ whimper excessively.
“Sarah did drop in visits for our little Archie, while we were away on a trip for 2 weeks. She took really good care of him. Archie likes to play in the yard, and Sarah made sure he had enough sun shine whenever it's possible! She also spent time cuddling and playing with Archie to keep him happy, in addition to regular feeding, litter changing etc. She also gives regular updates with photos and videos. Recommend booking Sarah for your peace of mind!”
“Kyra's first meeting with Rupert was great - she was punctual, friendly and polite. She understood hee has little ways and I am confident he will be in good hands when she visits him.properly next time.”
About: I have experience caring for cats through owning my own cat and understanding the responsibility that comes with looking after them every day. I know that cats have their own personalities and routines, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I am confident with feeding, keeping litter areas clean, providing attention and playtime, and giving cats space when they need it. I understand that some cats are more independent while others need more interaction and reassurance.

“Anindita was looking after Tala for me while I was at work. We met beforehand to make sure they got on, and Tala took to her straight away. When I dropped her off, she happily ran into the house, already feeling at home. It was great to know that she would have such lovely company all day, plenty of walks ad attention. Anindita was great with Tala and even sent me pictures of their day together :-) Tala will be staying with Anindita again and it's a massive relief for me to know that she's with someone who gives her such brilliant care. Thank you!!”
“From pre stay to during and post daycare Mark and Fee were amazing, putting my mind at rest, with great f communicatiin, offer of updates during the day and time to chat on pick up. Nelson was settled from the get go. Great facilities too”
“Jess and Joel took excellent care of Otto. They were super kind, caring and sent me regular updates about how Otto was doing. It is it was Ottos first experience of going to a loving home for a few days and I can highly recommend Jess and Joel. Thank you.”
“Thanks for having Charlie to stay Charlotte. Thanks for helping out last-minute too. As a five-month-old border collie puppy, he can be pretty playful. He’ll have appreciated you playing with him. I’m sure his stroll in the park was a nice change for him too … a new place with new smells !! I felt much happier knowing that he had company with him, rather than leave in in the house all day. I’m glad that he behaved himself !!”

About: I've grown up around dogs, so having muddy paws around the house feels pretty normal to me. My grandad was a well respected vet, which meant I was lucky enough to meet dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including plenty of rescue dogs! I have just moved out of my parents house which has meant I no longer have my two beloved border terriers to keep me on my toes! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be left counting down the hours until you’re back. They’ll have plenty of company, lunch time walks and lots of cuddles of course! I work from home full time, so I’m lucky to have plenty of time during the day to look after your furry friend and keep them company! My partner also has a flexible job, which means we would happily adapt to their routine and make sure they are well looked after. I’m active and love spending time outdoors, so getting out for walks is something I really enjoy! Whether they’re up for a longer walk or just a good explore of the local area, I’d love to have them join me and become part of my day. We have a fenced garden with lots of room for your dog to run around and enjoy some outdoor time! There are plenty of walking spaces nearby, including a forest 5 minutes walk away, so there are lots of options for longer walks and shorter strolls. We’re not a strict household, if your dog is allowed on the sofa at home, they’ll be more than welcome to relax on ours too! We’ll always try to keep them to their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable while they’re with us.

About: I have a huge passion and love for animals especially dogs I used to have a cocker spaniel up until recently til she sadly passed from old age. I have looked after her since I was little and would love to help people out and care for their dog as well as I did with her. We also used to have two welsh springers which were very high energy and required a lot of looking after but were absolutely lovely. I have looked after friends dogs in the past and am very gentle and loving with them. I really enjoy giving them attention and nice long walks, and am happy to help out as much as possible. I now have a lovely puppy called Minnie aged 9 months, who’s very friendly and gets on well with other dogs. I’m flexible in terms of the days and will can adjust my routine as best as possible in order to provide the best care for your dog I am adjustable to how your dog behaves if there are very calm and relaxed I will settle with them or with lots of energy am happy to tire them out for hours.
“Sam is a brilliant dog sitter, Tala took to him straightaway when we met up and when I dropped her off for her daycare today, she immediately remembered where she was and couldn't wait to get it the house :-) She had a lovely day with Sam, plenty of time outside and lots of attention. She came back to me happy and relaxed, thank you Sam!”
“A regular here. My boys are so comfortable around Alison now that Kai, my 'aloof Shiba Inu with attitude', let Alison rub his tummy for the first time today, and they weren't in a hurry to come home with me! 😆 Thank you, Alison. Till next time! X”
About: Happy, caring and energetic dog walker looking for new 4 footed friends to walk. I have ample experience walking many different dogs. I love a good long walk, don't know who enjoys its more, me or the dogs! i'm also very happy to host a dog or 2 in my house. I will happily do pop in visits for dogs that are at home all day. I have been caring for animals for many years, I grew up surrounded by animals, mainly dogs. for much of my teenage life i worked in a stables where i would help care for the 13 (yes 13!) stable dogs that ruled the roost. I have also volunteered at a few animal shelters where I would help acclimatise strays by being their primary carer. I currently have a small female dog and a large male (neutered) tabby cat. Both are friendly and welcoming to guests. I have an enclosed garden for pets to Enjoy and I’m a 2 min walk from Tothill park, a wonderful place for dog socialising and exercise. In April 2026 I welcomed my son into the world so our guests need to be ok with children. Look forward to meeting you all soon!
“Kate has been so kind and caring getting to know our anxious dog - Luna had so much fun at her evening stay today, we’ll definitely be booking with Kate again very soon! Kate has a lovely home and is super accommodating to our dog’s needs. We feel really happy and content knowing Luna is relaxing while spending time with her. Thanks so much!”
“I’m really grateful to Becki for looking after Gracie at such short notice. Gracie had a wonderful time and looked extremely happy in the photos I was sent. I would have no trouble recommending Beckie’s services and look forward to Gracie visiting soon.”
“Scout had the best day staying with Sophie. She played all day with Spencer. Sophie is a fantastic host, reliable, efficient and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend her. She sent brilliant photos and video of Scouts stay.”
About: I've had a love if pets since I was a child. I believe I'd give your furry friends a great time 🙂 my children also have a love of animals too I'm currently unemployed due to the holidays and caring for my 8yr old son who has additional needs. I'd love to look after your furry friends in my spare time I have a courtyard with a gate separating from the neighbours, which are both lovely. There is a few friendly parks for me to walk the doggies
“Bridget was fabulous throughout! We were visiting Plymouth for a family funeral so didn’t really know what to expect. We had several communications before our dogs stayed, which put our minds at rest. Bridget was quick to respond to messages and keen to help. She also gave us regular updates and videos through the day. We couldn’t have asked for better care. I would thoroughly recommend Bridget and will definitely book again when we’re down in Plymouth. Thank you from Izzy and Jet too 🦮🐕🦺🐾”
“Absolutely bloody marvelous. Amazing communication throughout the process, and kept our puppy busy and having loads of fun throughout the whole day. Photos of his day were of really high quality, and it was possible to see he was very much enjoying himself throughout. 10,000% will use again!”

“Sophia is lovely. We had booked a walk, but with the heatwave she was more than happy to stay and play with my puppy instead. She was great with him, even when he was being a bit of a hyper puppy at first! Would definitely recommend.”
About: Hello there! My name is Amy. I have a lot of experience with pets (dogs & cats) as I have worked in boarding kennels/cattery in both UK and Norway. A lot of dogs and cats that I have taken care of have been regulars at my kennels/cattery so they became like my own pets! I love to build bonds with any animal and would really like some company whilst I am out on walks or in a home having some quiet/play time. I have always been a very responsible person and would love to get to know you a little before you trust me with your fur-baby! Hope to meet you and your pets soon!

About: I have worked with a wide range of animals from elephants to hamsters - but dogs as a speciality. I worked as a volunteer in south africa where i worked with both wild animals and abused/abandoned pets - which were mainly dogs. Back home I have worked with many dogs of many different breeds and ages, a few had physical, dietary and behavioural issues - all of which i was happy to take on and help. I have also studied science and math - more specifically Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Math A-levels - and am officially a Zoology Uni Student - which im hoping to use to peruse a career in animal care. I am also a very sporty person - so runs, very long walks or simply just some needed movement is very easily done ! Growing up around animals was the best part of my childhood and i am sure to carry that into the rest of my life, anywhere i can help i am happy to do so! I have recently moved to UK from mallorca - an island off of spain - and i am currently in my gap year. I am not working at the moment so pet care fits anywhere in my daily routine. I have worked with many breeds of dogs with very different personalities - hyper and cuddly or shy and unpredictable. I have worked in lots of different houses, where i respect the property and ensure it is clean and cared for along with the pets.
About: I’ve always been pet sitting my family members/friends pets since I was little and have always loved it! Now that i’m at university, I don’t see their pets that often anymore and since im far away from home and love animals i decided i’d like to start pet sitting around where I live! Since it’s summer time, I have lots of time to hang out with your pet/check up on them, I’m available anyday after 10am I have no pets at home yet, my house is pet safe, big and comfortable for any type of pet. I’m happy with small and big pets.
About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I was raised with 5 dogs at home, from puppies to elderly I enjoyed training, feeding and playing with them. As a teenager I’d help my friends by going to their houses to take care of their dogs and cats and take them for walks. I’m a volunteer in a woodland forest rescuing animals and creating new habitats for them, which improves my understanding of their behaviours and needs. I don’t do boarding for pets from different households at the same time so they can feel more comfortable while away from home. If your pet has any allergies, special needs, medications or a specific routine please let me know during the booking. I’m currently back home during summer break from university so if there isn’t any plans I’m free the whole week 24/7. I got a flexible schedule to be able to adjust for shifts needed I’ve got a house with a closed and fenced garden with play and have a good time. I don’t have any pets at home but I’m free the whole time to stay with your pet.
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for the past 3 years, giving me daily, hands-on experience with feeding routines, structured walks, playtime, basic training, and understanding canine behaviour. Caring for my own dog has taught me responsibility, patience, and how important consistency is for a happy, well-balanced pup. I’m confident handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments and always adapt to each dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a calmer pace and extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m available most weekends, including late Friday afternoons and evenings, making me a great option for weekend trips, evenings out, or last-minute plans. I’m flexible with timing and always do my best to accommodate your schedule where possible. In my home, pets are supervised, kept in a calm environment, and given plenty of attention and care. While I don’t have a garden, I live very close to Central Park, which provides plenty of safe, open space for regular walks, exercise, and enrichment. I make sure all dogs are kept on-lead unless otherwise agreed. I carefully follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding times, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. I grew up around two rescued dogs which had anxiety and was able to support them with there needs. 3 years ago I rescued a cat called dave who was very anxious and easily upset after have some traumatic experience with his previous owner. I have been able to help him overcome some of his fears and anxiety and he is now much happier. I will be happy to support your pets with there physical and emotional needs. I over drop in services where I can play with your pet, keep it company and feed them upon request as well as dog walking. I am currently working Saturdays and attend church Sunday evenings but other than that I am available to pet sit whenever you need me to. I will make sure your pet is safe in your home or out and about by feeding, walking them, playing with them and providing any medications or other discussed services upon request.
“Réka is an incredible dog walker and I would recommend to anyone. She always sends detailed updates on how my dog is doing and I always come home to a well walked dog. I could not commended her enough for how amazing and respectful she is in my home!”
About: I have lots of experience with animals - dogs in particular because I have had dogs my whole life. I also took my dog to behaviour/obedience dog training and agility training. I feel I have a strong connection with animals and can handle all types of characters and personalities. I have experience handling nervous dogs and reactive dogs and elderly dogs. I have never owned cats but my family members have lots of cats so I have experience with being around them and looking after them. I am currently a fully time university student looking to build up a bit of money alongside my studies by doing something I absolutely love which is looking after animals. Since being away from home I have found a huge gap in my life because I don’t have my dogs with me - this will allow me to be able to look after animals while I am away from home which is something I love doing. My days weekly vary and times I’m available based on my lectures but if you ping me a message I am sure we can sort something out - I am a very reliable person. I will always make sure the animal has its needs met and will follow the instructions left by the owner to ensure optimal care for the pet and peace of mind for the owner. I know how important your pets are as I have 2 dogs of my own at home and used to have a rabbit and hamsters. I absolutely love and adore all animals.
About: We always had at least one dog when I was growing up, most of the time a cat too. My most complicated house sitting experience, was one cat with medical conditions, a tropical fish tank, a goldfish pond, a house and garden full of plants to tend, and local wildlife (birds, squirrels, and badgers) to feed. It went off without a hitch and I was fully capable of that. I'm happy to take on complicated or simple jobs. Looking after pets is my primary job, so I'm free any day of the week at the moment for visits, walks or house sitting. Either regular or one offs. To start with I'd want to talk to the pet's owners to determine what the pet's everyday routine is, favourite toys, favourite walk spots etc. I believe it's important to keep life as normal as possible for your pet until your pet gets used to me, but with some added fun of course.
About: I've always loved animals, i've had a way with them and I would choose them over people anyday, Caring for them is something i've also done for a while having looked after my own pets ranging from rabbits puppies and birds. I've also helped out family caring for their pets when needed in the 2020 pandemic looking after their cat. I'm currently looking for work so I have a lot of free time, I try to be active so pet care and walks fits easily into my routine I can only offer walks or house visits. I will give pets plenty of attention and do my best to cater to their needs make sure they have plenty of water and follow any requests owners might have
About: We’ve always had pets including, dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets, reptiles and rodents just to name a few. Because of this I absolutely adore animals and enjoy meeting each personality, we’ve taken in older animals for their last stretch on this side and rescued plenty of fiesty babies who become beautiful happy babies. My whole family just loves animals, because of this whilst I’m at university in Plymouth I thought what better way to reduce how much I miss my babies than to look after others. I’m going into my second year at Plymouth and found missing my animals was a huge adjustment so I hope this will bridge the gap for myself. For the last six years I have been looking after neighbours and friends animals when they go on holiday or have an emergency and truly enjoy spending time with them as well as looking after them. Hopefully I can do the same in Plymouth. Im currently going into my second year at university in Plymouth with a changeable but low course load. This means that I am available for plenty of time with your pet be that toilet breaks and some loving or house sitting with them or taking them on a walk when needed. I’m looking forward to exploring some new areas and I believe there’s some English heritage places I haven’t been to yet! Because I am staying in halls I am unable to care for pets in my home however I would be happy house/pet sitting when I would only have to leave for university lectures which tend to be 2 hours long (plus commuting)
About: https://www.rover.com/sit/jb48608 <— Discount Code. I have experience caring for pets through owning my own dog and cat, as well as looking after friends’ and family members’ dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always aim to provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment. I am patient, reliable, and enjoy spending time with animals, whether that involves walks, playtime, feeding routines, or simply keeping them company. I am comfortable with both energetic younger pets and calmer older animals who may need a more gentle approach. I’m currently off for the summer from university. I’m available at short notice for all pet needs, from walks to housesitting and more. In my own home, I care for pets by providing a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure feeding times are consistent, fresh water is always available, and pets have a routine that helps them feel settled. I spend time on daily exercise and play, especially for dogs, and I give attention and interaction based on each pet’s personality and needs. For cats, I ensure they have quiet spaces, clean litter areas, and access to enrichment and attention when they want it, while also respecting their independence. As a dog and cat owner myself, I understand the importance of supervision, routine, and making pets feel at home. I would treat any pet in my care with the same responsibility and attention I give my own animals.
About: Love working with animals and having unlimited cuddles with furry friends. I adore working with the oldies and know how to handle their dietary needs. But more then happy to exhaust the youngsters, so they'll sleep through the night. I'm currently studying for my masters, so would love a part time job that will allow me to be active. I will have early mornings from 6 to 7:30 free and evenings from 5 to 9 available along with all day weekends. I have my own vehicle and dog seat belt lead if needed. While I have no garden for uses, I can take them to a safer and enriching environment
“Olivia was lovely and very easy to get on with when she came for the meet and greet. Murphy got on well with her straight away and was knackered when I came back from work! Took loads of pictures for me too. Will definitely book her again.”
About: As the dedicated pet sitter in the family, with two well-trained border collies, I stand out by being trustworthy and reliable. I've been trusted with dog walking my border collies since I was 12 when we got them! Clear communication, frequent pupdates, and a genuine love for animals define my approach. Whether it’s following feeding instructions precisely or ensuring pets’ safety during walks, I prioritize their well-being. I'm not qualified or have certificates, but you can trust me to treat your furry companions like family! My weekends are usually entirely free with a handful of weekdays, always looking for an extra shift for my university savings!! I'm just eager to be out and about with new pups or inside cuddling with some cats! ☺️ I always treat all animals like they're my own and their own person. I love to play, walk, cuddle – I'm down for it all!

“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!!”
“Sophie was amazing with my 2 dogs. One suffers with bad separation anxiety. I got updates daily and both boys loved their time with Sophie and Spencer. She was attentive, understanding and I managed to feel safe knowing they were with her. She definitely helped my anxious dog come out of his shell a lot more, so will definitely book with her again.”
“Hannah & Jordan took such wonderful care of Woody, he has had a brilliant time with multiple walks per day in different locations, swims, brushes and cozy sofa time and cuddles. We felt really bad that we couldn't bring Woody away with us and were nervous leaving him but Hannah & Jordan sent us lots of photos and messages each day. They were also flexible when we were delayed by an hour. It feels as though Woody has had a holiday and has been so well cared for! We would definitely recommend Hannah & Jordan.”
“I left for a much needed trip with my Hudband for 8 days and Anindita treated my dog as her own with love, care , hospitality and total professionalism. She sent us updates regularly and photos and even a few videos ; which relieved our minds of any problems or quirks with our dog Jimi . We have a sensitive dog with a quirky tummy at times and Anindita went above and beyond to help him with some special dietary assistance. She is the best sitter I have ever had and as a special act of kindness ; she gave our dog a little birthday celebration with s video ; since we could not make it back home until the day after his special day . I highly recommend her and her dear husband was very kind with my doggie as well. Thank you so much , as a person with a sensitive dog always worries and through this app Rover I have found the best sitter ever !”

“I was worried about Winston going away as he rarely goes anywhere. Mark and Fee allowed us to visit first and made me feel far more relaxed and reassured.

About: Happy, caring and energetic dog walker looking for new 4 footed friends to walk. I have ample experience walking many different dogs. I love a good long walk, don't know who enjoys its more, me or the dogs! i'm also very happy to host a dog or 2 in my house. I will happily do pop in visits for dogs that are at home all day. I have been caring for animals for many years, I grew up surrounded by animals, mainly dogs. for much of my teenage life i worked in a stables where i would help care for the 13 (yes 13!) stable dogs that ruled the roost. I have also volunteered at a few animal shelters where I would help acclimatise strays by being their primary carer. I currently have a small female dog and a large male (neutered) tabby cat. Both are friendly and welcoming to guests. I have an enclosed garden for pets to Enjoy and I’m a 2 min walk from Tothill park, a wonderful place for dog socialising and exercise. In April 2026 I welcomed my son into the world so our guests need to be ok with children. Look forward to meeting you all soon!
