“Arlete stayed in our house looking after Margo, our two year old cocker poo. Arlete is a very lovely lady, the house was spotless and the dog very happy on our return. I would have no hesitation to recommending her and hopefully she will be available to look after the dog again next time we go away.”


About: I am a mature lady, who has had cats up to 4 living together with my family and I. My profession is a nurse for over 30 years experience. I adore all animals and love to be around them. I can give medication as and when required and will look after your pet like it’s my own. I’m a fun loving who likes walking and travel.
“Hayley sat for my old boy Jasper(dog) in our own home for 11 days whist we were on holiday. She kept us up to date with videos and photos so we knew that he was being well looked after. On our return, the house was clean & tidy & Jasper was really content. Hayley is so warm & friendly and I would 100% recommend her to anyone requiring a house sit. I will definitely use Hayley again in the future.”

“Charley is so lovely and such a kind person! She was so calm, kept the house super tidy and which is the most important Newton loved her!! 🥰 I will definitely be booking Charley again for the next time we are away! Thank you so much for taking care of our beautiful Newton! ♥️ x”


About: I have grown up being surrounded by dogs, and while I am unable to commit to one of my own full time at the moment, This gives me the opportunity to enjoy your little pups and give them all my love! If you are working on new tricks, or any special quirks with your pup I'm happy to continue to reinforce the work you're putting in when your little one is in my care! Before I lost mine, I taught him new fun tricks which I would love to introduce to your pup! I currently am self employed, I have my local gardening business and my buying/selling business which I run from my own home so I am able to be at home often and when gardening able to pop back very often for your pup! I have a fully fenced back garden and a suitable size for your pup to spend time in if they love being outside! My home is very pet friendly with sofas to chill on and not many items to pick up off the side and chew
“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! Alice treated my boy like one of her own — daily updates, tons of photos, and clear communication gave us total peace of mind while I was away. Simba seemed at ease and happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved. You can tell Alice genuinely loves animals and takes the responsibility seriously. Im so grateful and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!”

“We went on holiday without having any worries of leaving our westie and our home with Helen. She kept us updated with photos every day and we would not hesitate of using her again in the future.”


“Beth was absolutely great at keeping in contact with me about how she was getting on during the stay. I received photos and was always kept updated. I would 100% use Beth's services again in the future and I hope the build a lovely bond is built between herself and my doggy. Thank you for everything Beth!”

About: I have taken care of several pets over the years, including dogs/cats/rabbits/guinea pigs and hamsters to name a few. I offer dog walks and pet sitting in your home please contact me to bring more love and cuddles into your pets lives. I do currently work part time having retired recently. I currently work my own pet business around these hours and am fairly flexible also assisting shift workers. I care for pets in their home environment, this can be from drop in visits to staying overnight. The drops ins can be from 30-60 minutes times set by you.

About: I have 10+ years of experience looking after both my own dogs, and providing dog sitting services for others. Since the age of 3, there's never been a time that I haven't had a dog in the house, ranging from caring for elderly dogs to, in the last few years, taking in a puppy aged 3 months. I believe that every dog deserves his or hers own individual care - no two dogs are the same. I also hold vast experience caring for multiple pets at the same time, consistently having both dogs and cats in my own home, plus also caring for both in other people's homes as well. I am a professional dancer, working on cruise ships. I have recently returned and am spending the next few months at home before returning to the seas. This means I am completely flexible and available. I provide a professional, but personable service to provide the best care for your pets in the environment they feel most comfortable. I aim to give your pets the continuity and stability they are used to, to keep them relaxed and happy for the duration of my stay.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals. I’ve grown up caring for cats, dogs, and even reptiles, so I’m comfortable adapting to different temperaments, routines, and needs. I’m especially confident with young pets, helping reinforce basic training, good habits, and consistent routines. I also provide attentive senior care, making sure older pets are comfortable, supported, and given the extra patience they need. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual—paying close attention to their personality, behaviour, and wellbeing so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work 9–5, so I’m available for morning visits before work and evening visits afterwards, making sure pets are fed, exercised, and comfortable at the start and end of each day. On weekdays, I plan my schedule so each pet gets consistent care and attention, and I’m fully available for longer visits, drop-ins, or overnight stays during evenings. On weekends, I have much more flexibility, so I can offer extended care, multiple visits, or more time with your pet. I always make sure pets’ routines are followed closely, so they feel settled and well looked after even when their owners are away. Always happy to discuss in more details I tailor my care depending on the service and what each pet is used to, so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. In a pet owner’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, fresh water, cleaning (including litter trays), exercise, and playtime. I take time to understand their personality, whether they’re energetic, shy, or independent, and make sure they get the right level of attention. I’m especially mindful of keeping their environment calm and familiar, which is important for cats and more sensitive pets like reptiles. I can also provide updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. If caring in my home (if applicable), I create a safe, clean, and quiet environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I keep routines consistent, supervise them closely, and make sure they have plenty of enrichment, attention, and rest. I’m careful to introduce any new environment gradually, especially for more delicate or routine-driven animals. We have a fenced garden Across both settings, I focus on reliability, cleanliness, and making sure every pet feels secure, well cared for, and treated like my own.

“Beth was brilliant we would definitely recommend. She very generously offered a meet and greet and drove 30 minutes each way to meet our dog ahead of a 1 night sit. She was so attentive to our westie and was great with him. She gave plenty of updates which were much appreciated and we very much felt that out home and doggy were left in good hands. Thank you Beth 😊”


About: I am a second year veterinary student with a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on-experience caring for a wide range of pets. Growing up with animals, I have trained my own dogs and regularly care for family, friends and neighbours dogs. Through my veterinary studies, I have developed knowledge of animal behaviour, handling, health and welfare allowing me to easily spot if any health issues arise in your pet. I have also completed placements at a dog and cat boarding kennel and an animal rescue centre giving me practical experience working with animals of different ages, temperaments and needs. I provide reliable and compassionate care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I have recently completed my second year of veterinary studies and am available for pet care from now until 28th September. My schedule is highly flexible including week days and weekends allowing me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Please note that I have veterinary placement commitments during the weeks commencing 17th august and 24th august 2026. During these two weeks, I will be available on weekday evenings after 6pm and throughout the weekends. Outside of these dates, I am available throughout the day and can offer a high degree of flexibility to suit owners schedules. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions provided regarding feeding, exercise medication and any specific care requirements ensuring each pet receives attentive and individual care. I take the time to provide companionship, enrichment and exercise appropriate to the pets needs while monitoring their health and wellbeing. As a veterinary student, I am familiar with animal behaviour allowing me to recognise signs of stress, illness or discomfort and respond appropriately. I also treat owners houses with respect, keeping the area clean and tidy and providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My aim is to ensure both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident throughout the pet sitting experience.

About: I am a reliable and friendly pet carer who loves building a strong bond with every pet I care for and their owners! I’m happy to walk your fur babies, provide drop-in visits and/or house sit. Dog-care experience: I started walking dogs last year through BMD and have experience with a range of breeds and personalities, from Dachshunds and Cockapoos to Labradors. I have also cared for senior dogs and more challenging dogs including those who have limited recall, are strong leash pullers, or who experience attachment issues when separated from their owners. I’m comfortable adapting my approach to suit each individual dog which may include implementing training techniques such as clickers, squeakers and, of course, plenty of treats! I also have experience house-sitting while providing pet care and have developed strong, trusting relationships with previous owners and their pets. References can be provided upon request. Cat-care experience: I also have a fur baby of my own🐱 (which means I don’t offer daycare or boarding - sorry!) This has given me experience with cat care too, including feeding, litter cleaning and, most importantly, plenty of playtime and cuddles. I can’t wait to become your pet’s new best friend!❤️ I’m currently a medical student, which means I’m usually unavailable Monday–Friday, 9–5 during term time. However, I’m very happy to provide care outside of these hours, as well as during weekends and university holidays! I’m also very active and love getting outdoors and going on hikes to stay fit. I’d love to bring your fur baby along on my adventures, if they’re up for it! 🐾🥾❤️ I don’t offer day care or boarding, however I’m more than happy to house-sit once I’ve established a bond with you and your pet. Before any house-sit, I like to establish a bond with your pet and understand their usual routine. This means understanding their individual needs, including feeding schedule, walks, medication, and any house rules you have. I’ll also ask you for their vet details, emergency contact details and what to do should anything unexpected happen while you’re away. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect as I would my own, ensuring it is secure, clean and tidy throughout the stay. I’m more than happy to keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is being well looked after.
About: Hi there, If you’re looking for reliable pet care, I’d love to help! 🐾 When you book through my Rover profile using the link below, you’ll receive £15 off your first booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/mariac89067 Just use the link to claim your discount and secure your dates. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Over the years, I’ve learned how to care for dogs of all kinds—not just the happy, healthy ones, but also those who need a little extra attention. I live with Evie, my beautiful Olde English Bulldog, who’s been by my side since she was a pup. She’s now 5 and full of personality. Evie’s had her own health ups and downs, so I understand how important it is to be patient, gentle, and responsive to a dog’s individual needs. She’s neutered, well-mannered, and used to being around other dogs. As a registered nurse and mum of two, I’m naturally attentive and nurturing, and I bring that same care into how I look after animals. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them—whether it’s a cuddle on the sofa or a walk through the woods. I’m home most of the time, and with plenty of lovely walking spots nearby, I make sure dogs get fresh air, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I treat every dog like family—with love, patience, and a calm, safe environment where they can feel right at home. I currently work part-time, which means I have plenty of free time to devote to your pup’s needs. My flexible routine allows for long walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I’m available for boarding both during weekdays and weekends, ensuring your dog has companionship and care while you’re away. Dogs truly fit into my everyday routine, as I'm used to building our day around Evie and her needs. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. Whether it’s keeping them on their routine, providing medication if needed, or giving them cosy spots to rest, I always prioritise their well-being. Your pup will be cared for as if they were my own—getting plenty of love, play, and attention in a calm, safe environment.

About: I’ve previously cared for friends dogs while they’ve been on holiday and made sure they have the full care and attention that they deserve I currently work around 40 hours a week and I typically finish work around 12 pm so I’m available a majority of the day I don’t offer services in my own home as I still live with parents but I’m able to pet sit in the owners home

About: I'm a fifth-year veterinary student and have been caring for family pets for around 5 years now. Through both pet sitting and looking after my own animals, I've gained experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with specific routines. I treat every animal as if they were my own and always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm currently a student, so my availability varies throughout the week. I generally have weekends free and can often accommodate evening visits. I'm happy to discuss your needs and will do my best to adjust my schedule where possible to fit around your pet's routine I always aim to keep pets comfortable by following their usual routine as closely as possible. In an owner's home, I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, enrichment, and a safe environment while respecting any specific instructions provided. I understand that every pet is different and adapt my approach to suit their individual personality and needs. Regular updates and photos can also be provided for peace of mind.

About: I am currently a vet student and my whole world revolves around animals. I have done dog sitting and walking for 5 years now and love it! I am passionate to provide the most loving care for all animals with constant play and cuddles. Due to being a vet student I am in class every week day but I am very happy to spend my time in the evenings and weekends looking after your pets as well as during breaks and holidays. I have done housesitting various times, sometimes for a day and other times up to a week. I always like to meet owners and pets at least once before coming to stay in the house and make sure we’re a good match. It’s important that the animal gets to know me and trusts me before I sit as well as answer any questions beforehand.

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 Stafford 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 Stafford 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. 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.
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.
