About: My experience goes beyond simply walking and feeding. I've worked with dogs who have behavioral challenges and understand the importance of reading body language, building trust, and creating a calm, positive environment. Every dog is different, and I take the time to learn what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Over the years, I've also cared for friends' and family's dogs during vacations and extended stays, giving them the same love, attention, and routine they receive at home. In addition, volunteering at my local Humane Society gave me hands-on experience working with dogs from many different backgrounds, temperaments, and energy levels, further strengthening my confidence and adaptability. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can completely trust. I know they're family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same patience, affection, and respect I'd want for my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their routine, I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure they feel loved while you're away. My goal isn't just to watch your dog—it's to make them feel at home and give you complete peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. This flexibility means I can accommodate walks, playtime, feedings, medication schedules, and lots of one-on-one companionship throughout the day. During the week, I don't have access to my own vehicle, so I primarily accept bookings that are within walking distance or accessible by public transportation. On weekends, I do have access to a car, which gives me greater flexibility for bookings that are farther away. I always communicate clearly with pet owners about availability and transportation to ensure we're a great fit before confirming a booking. No matter the day, when I'm caring for your pet, my priority is providing dependable, attentive care and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every dog as if they were my own and am committed to giving them the same care and routine they're used to at home. When caring for your pet, my top priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know that every dog has their own unique routine, preferences, and personality, so I take the time to learn exactly how you care for them at home and do my best to maintain that same routine while you're away. Keeping their schedule consistent helps reduce stress and allows them to feel right at home. I treat every dog as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship throughout their stay. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, relaxing on the couch, or playing with their favorite toys, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. f approved by you, I also love spoiling pups with healthy treats and extra enrichment. For longer stays, I enjoy taking dogs on fun adventures that match their personality and energy level, such as visits to the dog park, the beach, scenic walking trails, or other pet-friendly outings. Of course, every outing is discussed with and approved by you beforehand, and your dog's safety and comfort always come first. My goal is for your dog to feel happy, cared for, and loved while you're away—and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands.

“Charlotte was brilliant and so wonderful with Rusty, it was the first time we have left him and had someone come in to see him and let him out. Even though he was a little nervous Charlotte communicated with me straight away and encouraged him gently out into the garden for a wee and a play. Charlotte communicated with me the whole time she was with Rusty and really reassured me that he was okay! Thank you for being so lovely and brilliant with Rusty”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m calm, patient, and reliable, and I always follow each pet’s routine closely. I prefer one-on-one walks so I can give dogs my full attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, and lots of affection, and I take responsibility and trust very seriously. I currently have a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to fit pet care easily into my daily routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits during weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow instructions carefully, respect your home, and keep pets on leads unless told otherwise. I make sure doors and gates are secure, routines are followed closely, and pets feel calm, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: Growing up around animals I have gained experience in loving for horses, dogs, cats, reptiles and many more! I currently own two lovely girl rats (Luna and CC) and a puppy Finn! I am keen to transfer my animal loving nature towards your furry (or otherwise) children! I have owned many dogs through my time around animals big and small, I will attach some pictures of my previous pups down below! In my early years I owned a lovely pony called Rio, which involved early mornings and late nights of TLC. I own my own vehicle as well as a range of dog seat belt sizes, so if your dog enjoys time at the beach or would just enjoy some new scenery I can accommodate that too! No ask is too much! I work part time Wednesday to Saturday 9-5:30 so anything before or after those hours works great! Monday, Tuesday and Sunday I am fully flexible for you! Due to me and partner having small animals in my home for your pets safety and theirs I am only able to pet sit over night in your home, or if your animal is okay being on their own, and you just need me to pop by for potty breaks, walks or feeding/medication, I can do that too!
“Lucy very kindly, at short notice and fair travel distance, did a 'drop in visit' for my puppy Henry. They went for a walk and had lunch, Henry was happy and had a lovely time! I'm sure Henry would be happy to rebook Lucy”

“It has been a lovely experience having Allie care for our cat Lucy while we were away. She dropped in around the same time every day, providing lovely consistency for our cat. She sent a nice update with pictures included which gave us peace of mind. Allie is friendly and sweet in person, and made sure our cat got a nice fuss, groom and a cuddle on top of keeping her fed and watered. Thank you so much, Allie!”

About: Hello I am a mature and responsible pet sitter with considerable experience with small to medium sized dogs, old and young, located in Suffolk. I am fully insured with an Enhanced DBS on the update service, I am constantly updating my skills and have received Canine First Aid and Dog Behavioural Training. I spend a lot of time with the animals I care for particularly with companion dogs who are used to spending a lot of time with their owners. I love the countryside and like to take my dogs on interesting and adventurous walks suitable for their ability. I carry out extra household duties such as watering plants, putting bins out and any other specific duties my clients would like to care for their home whilst they are away. I have a background in property management and can react quickly if any unusual issues arise. I am primarily a part time book editor but I work from home so I can be flexible with my time. When I look after your home and pets, I do not walk or look after any other household. I like to spend nearly all my time with the dogs and take them out on trips with me. Pet sitting needs to be scheduled in advance. I can be available last minute for local sits and walks subject to availability. I am a loving House & Pet Sitter and care for animals in their own comfortable home environment. I prefer to meet both my clients and their pets beforehand so normally work within a reasonable driving distance, although I do have clients in London and Norfolk.

About: I have had pet dogs and cats since the age of 10 and have also spent lots of time caring for friends and family pets.

I love all types of animals, love spending time with them and treat them all as if they were my own. I'm happy to house sit and care for your animals throughout the UK and Europe. I am currently working part time but this is very flexible and from January 2026 I'll be available for full time pet sitting. I can't wait. I will look after your pets and your house as if they were my own. I am very reliable and trustworthy and have a DBS check.
About: I’m a fun, caring animal lover who just wants the best for all animals! I currently volunteer at the Blue Cross and I’ve previously run a kennels & cattery so am confident with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes and breeds. I’ve also worked for 2 zoos - one a mobile zoo with smaller animals such as reptiles and meerkats and the other a large zoo with everything from penguins to zebras so I’m used to a whole host of animal traits and characters, as well as meeting their needs. My work is very flexible and I work from home most of the time - if I do need to go out I often take the dog/s staying with me along, so they can enjoy a walk somewhere new at the same time🙂 My approach to looking after your pets? With love! Having had my own dogs since I was a child and more recently lost my elderly Mastiff cross Bordeaux, I know what it’s like as an owner to leave your pet with someone else. I therefore aim to make both you and your pet as comfortable as can be while you’re away and am very flexible to meets yours and their needs.

Pet owners share their Rover experiences - Suffolk Coastal
It's always stressful when going away and leaving your pets care in someone else's hands but I am so glad I found Nikki on Rover, she has looked after Luna on a couple of occasions now and the most recent booking ended up with me needing to add some extra days on as I was in a situation when away and needed to sort out new tyres for my car, which delayed my return home. Nikki was able to step in and help at short notice, which made a stressful situation so much less so. Thank you Nikki!

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.
