“Josephine accepted a last minute booking and I think my dog, Rufus, really liked her. He knows his usual dogsitters very well so I was a bit nervous about him never having met Josephine as he can be wary of strangers. Josephine sent photos of Rufus on his walk and he looked delighted! Will book again”

About: I’ve had my own cat, Michael, for over eight years, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with caring for a pet. I also have experience caring for pets of different ages, personalities and needs, from energetic young pets to older animals who may need a little more patience and attention. I’m confident caring for young pets and reinforcing routines and basic training, while also providing calm, gentle care for senior pets. As an active and reliable person, I love making sure pets get plenty of exercise, play and mental stimulation, always adapting to their individual needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine closely and make sure they feel comfortable, safe and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently at university, working part-time and am also a competitive athlete, so I’m used to managing a busy but flexible schedule. My training and university commitments vary throughout the week, which allows me to be adaptable and work around the needs of each pet. I’m happy to arrange walks, drop-ins, feeding visits or pet sitting around your schedule wherever possible. I understand that every pet has a different routine, so I’m flexible and will always do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality and any specific needs before caring for them, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully. I’m responsible, reliable and respectful of your home and belongings. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and won’t hesitate to get in touch if I’m unsure about anything. I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in safe and caring hands.

About: I've been lucky enough to have animals around me for most of my life including growing up with a German Shepherd, so I've always had a special place in my heart for dogs. Over the years, l've also cared for a variety of other pets, from rabbits and hamsters to other small animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they're with me. I'm currently a university student, which gives me a flexible schedule around my studies. I have time throughout the week to care for and spend quality time with pets, and I'll always make sure their needs and routines are a priority. My availability may vary slightly depending on my class schedule, but i'll communicate clearly and reliably with every pet owner. I provide pet care exclusively in the pet owner’s home, where I can follow their usual routines and instructions. I prioritise your pet’s safety, comfort and wellbeing, and will treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid. I have had a Yorkshire Terrior my whole life and just recently moved to Stirling, so missing him very much. I used to do a lot of pet sitting for friends back home as well! I'm currently studying part time and training at the University, so I have loads of time for pets! I am a big walker so can definitely take dogs out a lot ect. I am in a first floor apartment but there is lots of outdoor space below me with lots of grass. I love walking so can take the dogs with me!

About: For boarding and day care, pick up and drop off service may be available upon request. During a stay 2 walks a day can be expected, plus playtime in a fully fenced garden. Any other needs can be discussed. I have been a pet owner for 7 years but have grown up around dogs. I have worked and volunteered in animal shelters, and worked in a medical environment caring for animals. Working in shelters has given me some animal training experience, and experience in handling more difficult animals. Working in the medical environment has given me knowledge of special need animals and administering medications. I started professional pet care while living in the USA. This included home visits, walks and sitting. I look forward to hearing from you!

Denny, FK6

About: Hey! I’m Connie, 34 and a dog lover moving back to Denny from June onwards 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I had my Bichon Frise, Ollie, for 13 years, and since losing him I’ve continued caring for dogs regularly, especially my brother’s Cockapoo, Lottie (my little fur niece!), who I look after once or twice a week 🐶. I work full time during the week, but I work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I can be more flexible on those days. At the moment, I’m mainly offering: ✅ House sitting ✅ Dog walking ✅ Drop-in visits House sitting works best for me right now, and I also find most pets are far more comfortable staying in their own home and routine 🏡🐾 I’m very respectful of people’s homes and always make sure everything is kept tidy, secure, and well looked after. For dog walking, I’m available: ✅ Early mornings (Mon–Fri, 6–8am) ✅ Lunch breaks (Tues & Thurs) ✅ Evenings after 5pm (weekdays) ✅ Anytime Saturdays & Sundays I’m happy to do anything from quick toilet breaks to longer walks depending on your dog’s age, energy level, and routine 🌿🐕 I can also offer drop-in visits for feeding, letting pets out, company, and making sure they’re settled and cared for while you’re away 🐾 I’m a calm, patient, and affectionate person, and I always adapt to each pet’s personality — whether they want lots of interaction and play, or just a gentle, reassuring presence 💛 I also always keep owners updated with photos and messages so you know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away 🤍 I work full time Mon-Fri (9-4.30pm). I work from home on Tuesdays & Thursdays, which gives me more flexibility for walks and drop in visits during the day. On office days (Mon, Wed, Fri), I am available for morning walks before work and evening visits after 4.30pm. I am also fully available at weekends which allows for more flexibility, longer walks and regular care as needed. I enjoy being active and outdoors - I love going for drives and long walks and I am happy to include dogs where appropriate. I also enjoy quieter time at home, so I'm comfortable caring for pets who just need calm company and a steady presence. I am organised and reliable, ensuring pet care is something I can consistently fit around my work while still giving pets plenty of time, care and attention 💗 I provide care in the pet owner's home, where pets feel safest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow each pet's usual routine as closely as possible including feeding times and durations, fresh water, toilet breaks and playtime! I include walks tailored to their energy levels and needs along with playtime, attention and companionship so they feel happy and stimulated. I will always ensure your home is left secure and tidy after each visit and will always provide updates and photos so you feel reassured while you're away 📸 I always focus on creating a caring, calm presence so your pet feels comfortable and well looked after.

About: I have taken care of many different dogs. I enjoy ther company and making sure they feel loved. Walks are the he best as they are good for me and extra good for the dogs. I have mastered the skill of picking up after them and have some experience in teaching tricks. Pet care is great for me as I am a very active person so I love to walk. However I also love to relax and just be there as company. I adjust to how people look after their pets quite quickly so the pets don’t need to feel any stress or anxiety from being in a new place with a stranger

About: I'm both a flexible and reliable, caring pet lover with a lifetime of experience looking after dogs. I've had dogs throughout my entire life, and my family has adopted and fostered many over the years. This has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and behavioural needs, from energetic puppies to nervous rescue dogs who need extra patience and reassurance. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves individual care tailored to their routine and personality. I also have a fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy time outdoors under my supervision. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'll care for your pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates so you can have complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work full time but have the majority of evenings free and am more than happy to spend my days off any free time I have to look after peoples furry friends I have a well sized secure fenced garden and an extremely friendly dog of my own to keep your dog entertained. Plenty good walks nearby.

“Holly was super friendly and accommodating when I got in touch with a last minute booking request after struggling to find an available pet-sitter in my area. Holly was happy to look after my two rabbits and my flatmate's cat without issue, and shared photos while we were away. Highly recommended!”

“We cannot recommend Savannah enough. She has been ABSOLUTELY brilliant. We were so anxious initially leaving our kittens alone, but since day one, we knew they were in good hands when we saw their pictures and videos with her. Our kittens were anxious around new people but warmed up so easily with her. She also updated us on literally everything and went the extra mile to make them comfortable. We would want her for our cats every time we're away. 100 percent peace of mind.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting – Stirling

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Stirling is £14 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £10 and £18 per Visit.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,887 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across the city of Stirling. About 85% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.

Yes. There are up to 1,887 pet sitters offering care in and around Stirling. To find a sitter who is available during your working hours, enter your address, select the days and time slots when you need care, and review matching local profiles.

Depending on the sitter’s schedule, you may be able to arrange a one-off visit or recurring care on selected days of the week. Confirm the visit timing and frequency before booking, as availability and service areas vary by sitter.

You can book overnight boarding with a local sitter on Rover, where your pet stays in the sitter’s home while you're away. If your pet is more comfortable staying at home, house sitting or scheduled drop-in visits might be a better fit.

Consider how much company and supervision your pet needs, how they respond to unfamiliar homes, and how long you'll be away. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet before booking.

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 must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.

Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
