About: Hi! 👋 I love dogs, having trained 3 of my own and helped family and friends train theirs. I know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else, hoping they will have a good time. 🥺 I got my start volunteering with a family friend who rehabilitated dogs. I specialise in looking after small to medium dogs. I enjoy stick/ball throwing. And have previous experience watching other people’s dogs. I have a medium-sized fenced garden with a big lawn perfect for zoomies! 🐕💨🍃 I would love to provide a comforting, safe and gentle presence for your fluffy baby when you are away, looking after them like they’re one of my own ❤️ 🐾🐕🤗 I have experience with flat faced breeds (such as pugs & frenchies). As well as experience with senior dogs, and dogs that need medications and special diets. I have experience administering vet prescribed medications as pills, powders and using oral syringes. I have house-trained multiple dogs, and raised puppies so am happy to work with dogs that need puppy pads. 💦 I have supported dogs with cancer who need gentle & responsive care. ❤️🩹 Please let me know your doggy’s support needs including any behavioural quirks as I do have 2 very friendly and chill doggies who will be in the house. I work from home and can give your doggy lots of snuggles and attention. We also have plenty of toys for them to play with. My schedule is fairly flexible provided I get advanced notice. I have a medium sized fenced garden with a lawn for zoomies! I have 2 friendly lil puggies who would love to play with your doggy! I also have a crate for small to medium sized dogs and plenty of dog beds if your dog wants alone time.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life and have grown up in a dog loving home. My family has a French Bulldog who is now 12 years old, and I have been closely involved in his care throughout his life from a little pup all the way to a senior dog. I regularly look after him when my family are away, ensuring his daily routines are maintained and that he feels comfortable and well cared for. In addition to this, I frequently care for other family pets while they are on holiday, providing walking, feeding, and general day to day care. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and cared for as they would be at home. I am available for dog boarding, doggy daycare, dog walking and drop in visits on weekends. I can organise longer stays/visits upon request. For clients that choose dog boarding/dog sitting, I live with my partner who will also be in the house as he works at home full time. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment both in my home and in a pet owner’s home. In my home, dogs have plenty of room to relax and I also have a large, fully fenced garden where they can safely play and get fresh air. Outside of my home, I have access to lots of green spaces, which allows me to take dogs on regular walks in quiet surroundings. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain their normal routines, including feeding, walking and any specific care needs.
“Amy was absolutely amazing with our 8-month-old Golden Retriever, Albert! I reached out only a few days before we needed daycare, and Amy replied immediately and was happy to help. Since I wasn’t sure how Albert would react to new people and other dogs, we even arranged a quick meet-and-greet beforehand, which made me feel really comfortable and reassured. Amy was reliable, flexible, and incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. She kept me updated during the day with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. Even though Albert is still a puppy and not fully trained yet, she was very patient and welcoming. Her dog Jasper is lovely as well, and the two dogs got along perfectly. It was also really nice to see how much care and attention Albert received during his stay — Amy even took him on a long walk, which he clearly enjoyed a lot. Amy is super friendly, open, and genuinely caring. I would trust her with Albert again anytime and will definitely book with her again.”

“My dog is very anxious and nervous so obviously was a bit worried about his first stay with Kay, soon as I met Kay and her husband I knew he would be fine, they made him feel at home and could tell they just wanted my dog to be happy & safe, he came home worn out as had plenty of walks & play time, would definitely recommend and will be using them again”


About: I love dogs and have 4 years of experience caring for my Cockapoo, as well as 1 year of experience looking after a friend’s puppy. I also work in a charity that helps dogs, which has given me even more experience and a strong understanding of how important it is to provide dogs with kindness, patience and care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and keeping them happy and active. I can play fetch with them indoors or in the garden, take them for walks on a lead, brush their coats, and clean their paws after walks or when they’ve been outside. I’m also happy to clean them up after they’ve done their business. I’m a caring, responsible and patient person, and I will treat every dog as if they were my own. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved and well looked after. 🐶❤️ I’m currently working from home and I will walk my dog at 10 am on weekdays. If I have work to do offline such as at schools or store, I will walk him at 7 am. I have plenty of time for afternoon or evening when I finish work or have a break from work to look after pets who need toilet breaks or feeding. I have a fenced garden in a semi-detached house and a park within 5 minutes walk from the house. I love walking dogs in the park and playing balls with them for a bit. I also like playing hide and seek games with them in the house and let them use their energy for a bit after their treats and naps.
“So glad I found Andrew. Was the first time using Rover and first time leaving Jasper with anyone other than family so I was more than a little nervous. Andrew sent me updates and photos to put my mind at rest. Jasper settled in straight away and will definitely be booking again.”

About: I have grown up with a household full all animals ranging from insects, rodents, cats and dogs. I have looked after and walked dogs since I was 15, and have owned dogs for the last 13 years. I have always had a passion for animals and hold an honors degree in animal behaviour. I have always rescued dogs (greyhounds) and take on the older ones with behavioural or health challenges. I have a lot of experience with older dogs and dogs that come with additional care requirements. I have completed dog first aid, cared for dogs with severe injuries and health issues ranging from dog attacks to advanced cancers, organ failure and spinal issues. I am very experienced in administering medications for unwell animals and a dab hand with vet-wrap for those clumsier pups (side effect of owning sighthounds). I work full time, however I will be taking your dogs into work with me where it is a dog friendly environment. They will receive 24hr care. There are fields and woodlands nearby for walks. I will tailor my care for you pets. I have a good size house with a fully fenced garden. The fence is 6ft so they will be secure. Your pets will be able to roam free, however I do have a crate for any animals that prefer to sleep in them or younger ones that might need time outs to continue crate training.
“★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Thank you so much for looking after Odie! We were down for a wedding and it was so nice to not have to worry about the dog for the day. Was also lovely to have frequent photos and updates. Would definitely recommend. :-)”

“James and his family were amazing. Bruce settled really well. I knew from the first meet that they were perfect for Bruce and am so glad I have found them! Will be using them regularly”

“Elizabeth was lovely, worked well with the instructions I passed on and kept me up to date with videos and photos. Really lovely care of Poppy who clearly had a lovely time playing with Bailey.”

About: 🐾 A Home Away From Home for Your Best Friend! 🐾 Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of every age, breed, and personality. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, so I understand that every pup is unique and deserves plenty of love, patience, and individual attention. From energetic puppies learning the ropes to gentle senior dogs needing a little extra care, I'm experienced with it all. I've helped with puppy training, supported older dogs with arthritis and mobility issues, and cared for every stage in between. Whether your dog is full of zoomies or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy during their stay. I've looked after dogs of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Jack Russells right up to gentle giants like Dogues de Bordeaux—so no matter how big or small your four-legged family member is, they'll be welcomed with open arms. Your dog will have plenty of room to make themselves at home in our spacious house, with lots of cosy spots to relax, nap, or simply potter about. Outside, we have a large, secure garden where they can stretch their legs, play, sniff, and soak up the fresh air. We're also surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it the perfect place for exciting adventures, leisurely strolls, and plenty of sniff-filled walkies. Sharing our home is our lovely spayed female Golden Retriever, who absolutely adores other dogs. She's friendly, gentle, and always happy to make new friends—whether that's a game of chase in the garden or simply lounging together after a long walk. I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, and I'll care for them as if they were one of my own. Whether they're staying for a day, a weekend, or a longer holiday, you can relax knowing they'll receive lots of love, attention, playtime, cuddles (if they enjoy them!), and updates so you can see what they've been getting up to. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I work from home full-time, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule already revolves around my own Golden Retriever, meaning your dog will always have company, attention, and plenty of opportunities for exercise and relaxation throughout the day. Our mornings start with breakfast (our Goldie would never let us forget it!), followed by a long walk through the beautiful nearby woods and countryside. If anyone comes home a little muddy after their adventure, they're more than welcome to enjoy a quick rinse before settling in. While I work, the dogs can relax wherever they're most comfortable, with free access to our spacious, secure garden whenever they fancy a sniff or a potter outside. I take regular breaks throughout the day for playtime, cuddles, toilet breaks, and, of course, the occasional well-earned treat! In the afternoon, we head out for another walk before winding down for the evening. Whether your dog loves exploring, playing, snoozing, or simply being close to people, they'll enjoy a relaxed, home-from-home environment with lots of love, attention, and companionship. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. We have a large, fully secure garden with high fencing, giving dogs plenty of space to run, play, explore, or simply relax in the fresh air whenever they like. I also make sure that any plants within their reach are dog-safe, so you can have complete peace of mind. Sharing our home is our friendly, spayed Golden Retriever, who absolutely loves the company of other dogs. Whether it's a game of zoomies around the garden, exploring together on walks, or curling up for a well-earned nap, she's always delighted to welcome a new furry friend. Inside, our home is spacious, calm, and relaxed, and dogs can settle in wherever they feel most comfortable. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or prefers a peaceful snooze after a walk, they'll have plenty of space to feel safe, loved, and right at home.

About: I’ve been around animals all my life, growing up with family pets - from frogs to dogs! When I left home and my family dog of 7 years, I knew I needed a furry companion, so along came Crumpet! My 2 year old Golden Retriever. Crumpet has been with me from being 12 weeks old so I am very familiar and confident with caring for young animals. My dog is my baby so I fully understand how much people love their pets—because I feel the same way about mine. My dog is truly part of my family, and that’s why I treat every pet I care for with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own I’m a full-time teacher who’s passionate about pets and available to care for yours during evenings, weekends, and school holidays. When I’m not in the classroom, I’m dedicated to giving your furry friends the love and attention they deserve When caring for someone else’s pet, I treat them as if they were my own—with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs and routines. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, walks, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away

About: My experience with dogs started when I was born. The family dog was one year old so I have grown up with dogs which installed a deep and meaningful bond with dogs. I have fostered many rescues from the UK and Romania, as well as adopting. I love all dogs and care for them as if they were my own and have owned and have experience with puppies, reactive dogs and seniors so have experience with a wide variety of different breeds and ages. I currently work part time from home, so will have plenty of time to play with your dogs, walk them and look after any of their needs from brushing to tear stains and feeding and/or medication. I will still be able to take your dog all day as I can work around their needs. I have a 6ft fenced garden and 3 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company if they want. Dogs have free roam of the house and garden and are welcome to sit on the sofas or beds, but am also able to provide crates/beds if needed for your pet. I am a short drive away from Marske beach and a wonderful wood so your dog will get a nice variety of walks twice a day depending on time spent at my home. Water bowls are placed in every room so they will have plenty of access to water at all times and will never be left more than 3 hours at a time if boarding overnight. At weekends our dogs are our passion so all days out are worked around dog friendly walks and cafes/pubs if needed. Your baby will also be able to enjoy weekend adventures if you would be happy for us to take them along.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later collection to match your Stockton-on-Tees commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust collection and drop-off times when needed.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's lead and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalised care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog's vaccines is the best way to be 'boarding ready'. Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Sitters in North East England may request that your dog be up-to-date on core vaccines, such as Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus, Canine Adenovirus (also known as DHP or DHPPi), Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough. Cats may be required to have Feline Panleucopenia Virus, Feline Herpesvirus, Feline Calicivirus, and Feline Leukaemia Virus up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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 .
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.
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 dog, 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.
We require sitters to operate in compliance with applicable local licensing requirements. In England, pet sitters who board dogs or provide doggy day care as a business may need a valid licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) Regulations 2018. When vetting your sitter, ask if they meet local licensing requirements for dog boarding. This confirmation is important for coverage under the Rover Guarantee. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
