“We can't recommend Emma highly enough. Our cat has recently been diagnosed with diabetes and we were considering cancelling our holiday, but Emma was well-skilled in caring for cats and administering the injections. She visited us twice before we went and kept us updated with daily reports and photos. We'll definitely be asking for Emma again! ”
About: I’ve had many years of owning and looking after dogs. I’ve often had the pleasure of dog sitting for my friends too. I live opposite a big park so your dog will get lots of exercise if required. I have also had the pleasure of looking after other small pets. I’m currently working on as a teacher so have the weekends and school holidays available. I’m also free in the evening after 5pm. I have a fenced garden which is of a good size. We have a park opposite the house which is easily accessible. The dog will be able to stay inside at night and day.
About: I have had pets the last 30 plus years. Until recently I had 2 massive ginger toms, TJ and Boo and a border collie called Dino. Sadly, my last furry friend passed away. I miss them. I plan on getting a dog at some stage but it’s early days so in the meantime my daughter suggested I register with Rover. I’ve always looked after dogs and cats for my friends and neighbours since I was a child. I love animals - my best thing is going for a walk in nature with a furry friend. I even took my cats for walks round our very large garden - well they would follow me! I’m semi-retired and work from home. We have had pets in the house for years - we are relaxed about beds and furniture and are happy for pets to sleep in the bedrooms either in their bed or on the bed! I have a very large garden and a small woods. I always go out into the garden with any pets I look after. I live on the river so may not be suitable for any dog that’s crazy about water - as soon as they see it they dive in! Dino, my border collie, would only go in if he could see the bottom! Obviously happy to have getting to know you visits beforehand. Before going on walks I do a recall assessment so I can gauge how responsive they are. I trained Dino with lots of positive reinforcement - am happy to use treats too if permitted by owner.
“We booked Sandra for 5 days 2 visits per day for our cat.She was so caring coming through the xmas period and even brought our cat some treats.Will definitely be booking with Sandra again.Sent us photos twice a day of our cat.”
About: I have over 3 years of dedicated experience caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats. My neighbours and family trust me because I am punctual, communicative, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m happy to provide daily photo updates so you can travel with peace of mind. I am a student currently in class from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM Monday through Friday. Outside of these hours, my schedule is completely dedicated to pet care! I am available for late afternoon walks, evening check ins, and have full availability on weekends for boarding or sitting. Because I am home all evening and night, your pet will receive plenty of focused attention, playtime, and supervised socialization with my own dogs. Safety is my top priority. My home features a fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can play safely. I have a friendly dog of my own who love making new friends, but I always supervise interactions to ensure everyone is comfortable. For pets that prefer their own space, I can easily use crates or separate rooms as needed. When sitting at an owner's home, I follow all house rules strictly, ensure all doors/gates are locked, and provide regular photo updates so you know your pet is safe and happy
“Absolutely brilliant – yet again! I love the videos and photos she sends, and I really appreciate how affectionate she is with my cats. They’re so fond of her, and I’ve become a fan too. 😺😺”
About: I’ve got a ginger cat called Ollie who is 10 years old. Our family dog was 16 and she passed away last year. I’ve volunteered on and off for 4 years at a cat & rabbit rescue. I have also volunteered at a farm. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. I care for my own cat, Ollie, and regularly volunteer with animals. I currently volunteer at a farm and have also volunteered at cat and rabbit rescues. I am available on Tuesdays, Fridays and weekends, and I enjoy spending my time caring for animals, going on walks and making sure pets are happy and comfortable. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality and individual needs, and I follow any instructions provided by the owner. Safety is very important to me, whether that’s making sure doors and gates are secure, providing fresh water and food, or keeping a close eye on pets during walks and playtime. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to give owners peace of mind while they are away.
“Izzy is a lovely person and Evie took to Izzy so well. I wouldn't hesitate booking with Izzy again in the future. She kept to our times and our Evie got to have her walks and enjoy the lovely weather we had yesterday together.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I got my first dog which was 4 years ago. I love caring for them and I am great at including some training with the dog or puppy as I trained my dog when he was a puppy. Im currently working full time as a teacher however I have weekends off as well as the school holidays off which means I can focus my full attention during those times. I ensure I follow what you (the owner) has mentioned and always putting the dogs/cats safety at the centre of everything. Also gaining a relationship with the dog will help.

Koda has done a number of drop in visits with my dog and cat and has been great with them both. She took the time to get an understanding of them both and what they needed throughout the day and was so great with them both that they instantly warmed to her. She kept me updated with photos and videos during the visits and I had total peace of mind knowing she was looking after them. I would highly recommend and will continue to use Koda
She took great care of our cats for almost a week when I went on a trip abroad. She made sure to keep us posted about our pets during each visit, tended well to their needs, and kept our flat clean. She was also very flexible with a last-minute extension when my return flight was moved due to a storm. I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.
Nina showed a lot of care to both are younger boundless energy Labradoodle and our older, sleepy, Pointer, during very hot weather...probably too much as they are not used to so much care! ;-) Made sure water was topped up and supplied snacks and made sure they had a small run around in the garden. Arrived on time and stayed with them for nearly an hour. Thank you.

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!

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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
