About: I have been dog, cat, and house sitting since childhood! I have volunteered at SPCA and have always found or adopted my pets. I grew up with a golden retriever and several cats. My schedule is very flexible right now, as I recently relocated to bury st Edmund's. Hoping to make the most of my time by helping out others and getting to spend time with their furry family. I have spent many years caring for pets of friends and family in their homes. I've always felt that it's easier to keep them in their home where they are familiar and comfortable and I am the one who is in their space. They are already missing their parents (owners) no need to add more stress.
“Katie was so lovely and it was clear from first meeting that she loved animals. Her communication while we were away was excellent and would love to book her again when we are next travelling”
About: Growing up in a house full of rescue cats and dogs ignited my passion for animal welfare, which goes above and beyond in both my professional and personal life. I understand how daunting it can be leaving your furry one in someone else’s hands and I ensure the best quality care catering to any specific needs, and guaranteed photos of your pet so rest assured you know they’re having fun. I’m able to be flexible working with your house sitting and home boarding needs. At home, I live with both a very friendly dog and loving cat, so your pet would have to be okay with this, otherwise I’m happy to house sit! Please don't hesitate to ask any questions 🤗 Having previously worked at a veterinary practice, I understand how to meet your pet where they’re at - whether that’s with cuddles and playtime from the get-go or a calm gentle approach to soothe nerves. I'm experienced in walking dogs of all sizes, chihuahuas to great danes, and can promise walking routes and lengths dependant on your dog's requirements. I'm experienced in house sitting for both dogs and cats, and to ensure your mind is at ease, I keep in full contact with photos of your loved ones throughout time away from them.
“Jack was really good with my 2 dogs, Bess and Bramley. He came twice in the day and they seemed very happy on my return. Jack let me know when he was there and it was just as we’d planned so I was so pleased. Really kind, thoughtful and efficient.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life quite literally, my first present as a newborn straight out of hospital was a gorgeous black ball of fur aka Tyson a German shepherd puppy and from that day on we were inseparable…. Needless to say now gsd’s are my favorite breed and will always be my favorite butttt and that’s a very big but all dogs of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart. I get on with dogs better then I do humans forming special bonds and an instant attachment to any dog I lay eyes on. I can’t go anywhere without stopping whoever has a dog and asking them if I can make a fuss of them so I thought I would put this love or obsession whatever you like to call it to good use and help others and welcome your dogs into my home where they will be loved like my own and part of our pack… I am currently a stay at home mum who is looking for an extra income to contribute more to my household and my family? So I have availability pretty much all day every day from 10 AM up until 2 o’clock I am free and from 4:30 till whenever you need I am free. I will have my children with me if you are happy with that I have a baby and a toddler that don’t go to school yet if it’s at the weekend, then I will be Child free. This does not affect my ability to do my job as I have pets myself and I look after them with my children. If your dogs are other dog friendly, I’m happy for your dogs to join us, if not that’s ok too I can take them separately. I have two dogs myself who are more than happy to keep your dogs company. I can crate your dog for safety, If it is needed I have a garden and children that would love to play with your dogs if your dogs are at my home or you are happy for my children to play with your dogs then my toddler is more than happy to if my other two are at school. I have plenty of fans in my house for this hot weather and they are on all the time. If your dog is at my home, there is freshwater everywhere in my home. I have no rules in my house for dogs, being toilet trained is preferred but if your dog is old incontinent or still a puppy, it is absolutely fine. I have hardwood floors and dogs have accidents happen. It’s easily cleaned up. Your dog will be more than at home here they’ll be allowed up on the sofas in our garden.
“We’ve used Alix’s pop in services multiple times and she has always been extremely professional and communicative. She provided great updates each visit, followed our dog’s special care instructions perfectly, and even went above and beyond tidying up after our dog. I would definitely recommend Alix’s services.”
“Rhiannon came to meet the doggies and I today before looking after them tommorrow. She very quickly picked up on all of their little quirks and they all seemed very at ease with her. I feel very happy leaving them in her care.”
“Marta was super nice and took great care of our boys! Both boys love her! Would give 10 stars if possible, highly recommend her and will book again in the future!”
“Layla was an absolute star, looking after our cat Halo while we were away. From the photos Layla sent us through the app, we could see how much fuss she made of Halo and how Halo warmed to her very quickly. Layla also coped admirably with having to medicate Halo twice a day, which was a big relief for us. We won't hesitate to ask Layla to help us out again with drop-in visits when we're away. She was utterly trustworthy, completely reliable and we are soooo glad we found her!”
“Rhian was extremely good and understanding with our dogs. Even at short notice she managed to make the time to visit us beforehand and get to know the dogs before her visit. Would highly recommend.”
“Hannah was fantastic with our two cats. She was caring and thoughtful, sending daily updates which showed the cats playing, purring and very happy. My cats could not have been in better hands. ”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! 🐾 As a lifelong dog lover and proud corgi and blue heeler mom, I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us. Whether it’s daily walks, or just needing some playtime. I provide dependable, loving attention that helps your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. With a background in caregiving and years of experience in both pet and people care, you can trust that your pets are in responsible, compassionate hands. I love the beautiful scenery we get here in England, and happy to keep your pups active lifestyle up while you’re away. I am a stay-at-home mom who is free during the day while my child is at school. I have a completely open schedule— so I can care for your animals multiple times a day and give them adequate attention. I will always make sure your pup is safe while on a walk, by having their leash and making sure their collars and tags are there every time.
“Bethany made communication quick and easy. I was was anxious as it was the first time leaving my boisterous pup. The photos showed he had a great time and I felt well reassured. Will definitely be using Bethany again ☺️”
“Louise did a great job caring for our kitten, doing everything that was needed and sending photos to reassure us, and leaving everything tidy for our return. Much appreciated. Thank you!”
“Freya looked after our two cats at our home for a few days, she looked after them so kindly and got to know them both! She also made sure our home was well looked after as well, and kept us updated with texts and videos of the cats every time she visited. She was excellent and we will definitely use her again, we highly recommend!”
About: I have grown up with and always loved animals. I regularly look after dogs of varying breeds (and personalities) for friends and family which I absolutely love. My experience varies from stubborn Huskies to yappy Jack Russel's to needy Siamese cats while also loving my own boisterous Labrador. This also varies in age, from my own 1 year old Labrador who we have had since a puppy, to more senior dogs who prefer a slower pace of life. I am understanding of the fact that different breeds and ages have different needs and requirements when it comes to daily care and I am always happy to incorporate this into their daily routine. Please feel free to message me for anymore information or any questions you may have. I currently work from home on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so will be around all day. I have a Labrador of my own, so we are in the routine of letting the dog out regularly, providing two walks a day and doing regular check ins to make sure there is plenty of water and all needs are met. Our garden is fully enclosed so the dogs are able to venture in and out as they please. My Labrador is still crated at night, however if your dog does not require crating this is fine. During the day, you dog will never be left for more than two hours. They layout of our house is slightly different, with the living area being on the first floor. This may not always be the best for more senior dogs. If there is any issues with this then please let me know.

About: I really love looking after dogs, I’ve grown up with dogs in the household from as long as I can remember - a retired greyhound and a rescue whippet lurcher cross. I also have my own dog care business so have a lot of experience with different breeds, reactive dogs, rescues and other behavioural challenges. I’d would love to rescue a dog of my own in the future when the time is right😁 I am currently studying mental health nursing at university and do online work about 2-3 out of 5 days a week so would have lots of time to spend with your furry friend and give them the attention they deserve! I enjoy spending time outdoors so would love going for long walks too. I’d love to have a chat with you to see how I can help make yours and your dogs life easier! I am very keen to keep the dogs routine similar to how it would be at home, from breakfast times to walk times! Unfortunately I am not able to have pets at my home as I am not licensed by the local council but I am more than happy to pet/ house sit (in the pets home)

Gabrielle was great with the cats, taking the time to text after each visit and provide photos. She treated our property with respect and called when one of the cats had been unwell to discuss it. Would absolutely recommend Gabrielle to cone and look after your feline friends 😃.
Layla was an absolute star, looking after our cat Halo while we were away. From the photos Layla sent us through the app, we could see how much fuss she made of Halo and how Halo warmed to her very quickly. Layla also coped admirably with having to medicate Halo twice a day, which was a big relief for us. We won't hesitate to ask Layla to help us out again with drop-in visits when we're away. She was utterly trustworthy, completely reliable and we are soooo glad we found her!
Katie was great! She was very prompt with responding, came prepared with any extra paperwork/info. She was easy to work with and coordinate a pre visit before we left to get the lay of the house and a feel for our cat! She always included pictures during her visit. Highly recommend and would book again

There are 462 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in St. Edmundsbury. About 93% of St. Edmundsbury sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
