About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, taking care of both as a child. I currently own a 7-year-old, rescued dog that I care for full-time. I notice that I have recently received a review which may make you doubt my services, but I’m happy to clear things up with you as it is not representative of the situation! I am currently unemployed as I’ve only just moved back to the area from Manchester! I’m currently recovering from a traumatic life event and would love to get some familiarity back. I have plenty of time to fit in pet care - boarding, walks, and pop-in visits. I love pets so would love to help out! I’m happy to keep your fur baby company whilst also making sure they are well-behaved hahaha. I have experience with both senior and disabled dogs, and can administer medication to cats and dogs. I can walk them, feed them, bath them, comfort them, let them outside, etc. I do love cats too by the way, I just don’t have any pictures as I had mine when I was younger!

“Tao was brilliant! Pancake was clearly very comfortable with her, which is always great for a dog who is shy. She was punctual, kept us informed and took really gorgeous photos. Will definitely book again!”

“April looked after our giant alaskan malamute as a house sitter for a week, We were super happy with the efforts taken to understand him and look after him in his normal environment (he gets anxious at the kennels). We had regular updates and can tell Loki received lots of love and attention whilst we were away. Thanks for looking after Loki we hope we can do it again soon.”

“Roxana looked after our little dog Charlie and our two cats so well! Charlie was treated to many outings and we were sent regular updates with lots of lovely photos. Our house was also spotless when we got home. We would highly recommend Roxana!”

“Athina was great with our 5 month old puppy. Super knowledgeable and gentle! We booked her for a whole day of house sitting and felt very confident leaving her with our pup. She sent us plenty of photos and videos throughout the day and did an amazing job sticking to his routine. When we got back he looked like he had a great day! We will definitely book again!”

“Dogs happy and well on return from travels. Geoffrey was walking early as temperature were hot, keeping them well watered plus spending time in garden during evening once weather cooler. House was left neat and tidy. Shared pictures and had 3 new friends following him around or curled up on settee beside him. Would book again.”

“Amelia put us at ease with regular updates of our fluffy prince. Great communication and it was definitely obvious that he had fallen for her too as he gave her lots of cuddles. Amelia was very attentive and gave Winston some eye drops when his eye looked a bit weepy. Thank you so much and we look forward to seeing you again soon.”


“Megan and Harry were just amazing. They came to stay in our home with our two dogs and took the best care of them. They were able to keep our dogs in their own routine, and this meant, when we got home, they were calm, relaxed and happy. I had complete faith in Megan and Harry, Megan even has a animal first aid qualification, so I really did not worry for a minute as I new they were in safe hands. I am so pleased with how things went, Megan and Harry will be my go-to dog sitters from now on. I can't thank them enough!”


“Ella was fantastic with my two rescue boys, Bobby and Juan. Juan is quite nervous at first but Ella soon sent me pictures of him cuddling on the sofa and having snuggles! Ella sent me frequent updates and pictures which was very reassuring and helpful for me as an anxious dog mum! Ella is a lovely person, very caring, kind and clearly loves animals. Thank you so much Ella for taking such good care of our boys 🫶🏻”

About: had dogs all my life from all walks of life from German shepherds to jack Russels always looked after friends and neighbours dogs and plants and willing to go the extra mile if need be I'm semi retired and have all the time in the world to care for your fur baby,house, or plants, whatever you need I'm your go to person I have a safe secure garden, also a huge dog friendly park 2 mins away, I do 3 to 4 small walks a day averaging 20 mins a time in hot weather and 30 mins in colder weather water is always readily available with ice added into water bowl on extra hot days
About: Hi I'm Sarah, and I'm a very calm reiki practitioner and animal communicator with gentle energy, who's grown up with a love for dogs and small animals. As an adult I've continued to enjoy having dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils and birds as part of my family and I currently live with bearded dragon Hercules and leopard gecko Sophie. As well as my own and family pets, I've been looking after my client's dogs for 5 years, offering walks, home care visits, and overnight sitting at their homes. The dogs enjoy cuddles, home comforts and their usual routine, whilst the owners enjoy peace of mind knowing that their pets are having a fun time too. Recently I was blessed with caring for my own senior dog with a terminal illness, so I'm experienced and very happy to care for senior, post surgery, less able and terminally ill pets, who may need some extra time and tlc. I enjoy animals of any size, but prefer to walk dogs on-lead until I feel confident that they know me well enough for good recall, and that I can keep them totally safe. I am DBS checked, mature, experienced and have recently completed a certificated course on understanding and supporting brachycephalic (short faced) dog breeds and am renewing my canine first aid in November 2026. I currently enjoy offering animal care and childcare as and when needed. My availability is very flexible, daytime, evenings, weekends and overnight, and I can be booked in advance or short notice if required. I love caring for pets in their own home, so that they can relax and enjoy their usual home comforts and routine walks when you can't be there yourself. Having also had the personal experience of caring for my elderly dog through terminal illness, I realised how important it was to have someone trusted alongside when I needed to go out, and I would love to offer that same care and peace of mind to others, during that precious time. I can prepare their meals, groom, give oral and topical medication, enjoy walks, playtime and lots of cuddles (if tolerated) and will adjust my level of interaction to suit each pet's needs and personality
“Dorothea dog-sat at ours for 4 nights and was here the whole time, unlike some 'sitters' who go out to work or don't sleep over. She was marvelous with our 2 demanding mini-dachshunds. They fell for her within minutes, despite normally being very suspicious of strangers. Dorothea was highly responsive, accommodating and flexible with us and our dogs, as well as being a lovely person with an interesting background. She went out of her way to be super-helpful when she was here and left our house clean and tidy when she left. I have no hesitation in recommending Dorothea as a kind and thoughtful Dog-Sitter-Plus.”

About: I've owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, from childhood to the present day. This has given me extensive hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and understanding canine behaviour. I am comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and temperaments and understand the importance of providing safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog's individual needs. I offer flexible availability throughout the week and will always do my best to accommodate your pet's routine. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I aim to provide reliable care and clear communication at all times. Your pet's safety, comfort, and wellbeing are my highest priorities. I understand that every pet is unique, with their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to ensure they receive care tailored to them. Whether providing walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, I always aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I pay close attention to their behaviour and wellbeing and will keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I understand the trust involved in caring for your pet and, where applicable, having access to your home. You can expect reliability, respect, and clear communication at all times.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Spelthorne
Hayley is an exceptional dog-sitter. I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly thoughtful, insisting on getting to know my dog, Grace, before the first sitting to ensure a comfortable transition. Her gentle and kind nature put Grace (and I!) at ease immediately. I looked forward to her lovely daily updates, which made it clear she was truly invested in giving Grace the best possible experience. Beyond the great pet care, she was extremely respectful of our home. It’s such a relief to travel knowing everything is in such capable, caring hands.

Sophie was a real gem. She house sat for us and took care of our cavapoo, Bella, when we went skiing over new year. She made the effort to meet up with us twice before the trip to meet Bella and walkthrough the house. Bella is a sensitive pup, but Sophie spent a lot of time with her, taking her for daily walks, administering her medication and cuddling with her on the couch. We received daily updates with pictures and also returned from the trip to a clean house and washed bedding. I could not recommend Sophie more!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Spelthorne on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Spelthorne walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Spelthorne choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
