“Wonderful experience with Keely housesitting for a week, our two dogs (one nervous) took to her immediately and she kept us well updated with plenty of pics to put us at ease. Think the dogs were disappointed when she left, I would definitely use Keely's services again!”

About: Experienced dog‑lover returning to Rover after some time away. I am currently in the process of moving home, I will only be accepting requests from previous owners and dogs. Pet First Aid trained and confident with a range of temperaments — your dog will be in safe, caring hands. I'm really lucky to work hybrid and flexibility 90% of my week. I am more than happy to work with parents to ensure that any alone time is limited and that their dog has the best stay possible. I’d like to think that you are getting a quality service where your dog is treated as my own and will be taken on quality nature walks whilst in my care.

About: I’ve had pets since I was small. I take care of my friends dogs most weeks with great success. Animals are my passion and I will treat them with the respect they deserve. I work about 8 days a month so I am very flexible. I will take bookings at short notice and will always display my availability I will care for your pet as if it’s my own, Your baby will be in safe hands with me and I will update you through out my time with your pet with photos and messages

About: I’m a very bubbly, caring and patient person. I’ve grown up around animals, cats and dogs. My grandma has had many cats over the years that I have helped to care for. Presently my grandma has 2 cats, that were feral, that I’ve helped to take care of many times and I looked after them from when they were both kittens. Previously my grandma had had a Miniature Jack Russel and a Lhasa Apso, which I would sometimes care for. My aunt owns 4 cats, a French Bulldog, an African Grey Parrot and a Corn Sanke. Two of the cats are Mainecoons, who I love playing with. My Aunt has also previously had Mastiff’s and a Malamute, which I would also care for time to time. I’m currently working part time at a bar, so I mainly work nights. On a Thursday and Saturday morning I volunteer at a charity for animals. Around all this I can take your energetic dogs out for a walk or I can stay and keep your dogs/cats company. I am also happy to play with them too. I will care for your pets by taking them out on walks, playing, feeding and even keep ing them company when they want a cuddle.

About: I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision because I’m exactly the same with my own dog, Roo. She’s my daughter, and I would only ever leave her with someone I completely trust. That’s the standard of care I strive to provide for every pet I look after. As a professional dog walker, I hold a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid. Combined with my hands-on experience professionally working with dogs since the age of 14, these qualifications allow me to understand canine body language, recognise signs of stress or illness, and provide safe, enriching care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk, pet sitting during the day, or providing overnight care in your own home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience and respect that I give Roo. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, personality and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable and happy while you’re away. I know how important peace of mind is, so I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos throughout my time with your pet. My priority is always their safety, wellbeing and happiness, giving you confidence that they’re in caring, knowledgeable and professional hands. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I plan my days around the pets I look after. This allows me to provide reliable walks, pet sitting and overnight stays without rushing, ensuring every dog receives the time, attention and enrichment they deserve. My own rescue dog, Roo, is at the heart of my daily routine, so I understand how important consistency, exercise and companionship are. I carefully organise my schedule to meet each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s sticking to their usual walking routine, feeding times, play sessions or simply providing company and reassurance while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care, and I treat every dog as if they were a member of my own family. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. I take the time to get to know every dog as an individual, understanding their routine, personality, likes, dislikes and any medical or dietary requirements, including allergies. As a professional dog walker with a Level 3 qualification in Canine Behaviour and a Level 4 qualification in Canine First Aid, I’m trained to recognise canine body language and behaviour. This allows me to assess how a dog is feeling and adapt my approach to ensure they remain relaxed, comfortable and happy throughout their time in my care. I’m experienced with crate training and understand that some dogs benefit from having a safe, familiar space to relax. I can also provide quiet, calming areas where dogs can choose to rest away from other animals if they need time to themselves. Every dog is different, and I always respect their individual needs and boundaries. I have a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor time and share my home with my rescue dog, Roo, and my two cats. However, I appreciate that not every dog is comfortable around other animals. If your dog is nervous or prefers their own space, I can cater to their individual needs and carefully manage their environment to help them feel safe and secure. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel exactly the same about Roo. She’s a member of my family, and I provide every dog in my care with the same patience, kindness, respect and attention that I would want for my own pet. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your companion is in safe, experienced and caring hands.

About: As a huge dog lover, I have extensive experience working with all breeds and temperaments — from small companion dogs to larger, more challenging breeds such as Cane Corsos and XL Bullies. My background includes working with the police as a dog handler, carer, and trainer, giving me hands-on experience in canine behaviour, training, and handling. I am also qualified and experienced in assistance dog handling and canine behaviour, and I currently work as a night veterinary assistant. This means your pets will always be cared for by someone knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, raising puppies and adopting rescue dogs throughout childhood and into adulthood. I currently have two rescue dogs of my own: Milo is my adopted Romanian mixed breed. He is well trained, gentle, and very affectionate. He gets along well with most dogs, although he can feel a little anxious around very large or overly excitable dogs. Milo can also be nervous in unfamiliar environments at first, but once he feels settled and comfortable, his soft and loving personality shines through. He is especially gentle and friendly with children once familiar with his surroundings. Moby is my 3-year-old Collie mix, also rescued from Romania. He is a sweet, easy-going boy who can be timid when meeting new people due to his difficult past, but he absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys playing. He can spook easily at times, but he is very well behaved, fully house trained, and equally happy having a play or simply relaxing and chilling out. I am very much a dog person and feel completely comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always aim to provide a calm, loving, and safe environment. You can be confident that your dog will be happy, relaxed, and comfortable during their stay — a true home away from home. Use my code “LEWISC58962” or link to get £15 off your first booking with me on Rover: https://www.rover.com/sit/lewisc58962 I am able to look after my dogs Milo 10yrs and Moby 3yrs alongside with my partner. He is a routine man and will wake up minutes before my alarm for a morning walk and food, he then usually has a afternoon walk followed by an evening walk before bedtime. I previously worked from home that allowed me to care for pets while your away and treat them with as much love as I do with Milo and Moby and their maintaining with routines. Your dog will be more than happy and comfortable here with milo and Moby, me and my partner pampered like one of our own along side regular updates. I have unclosed back garden, where they are free to wonder out and in along with Milo to keep company and plenty toys keeping keep them entertained while they stay, home away for home. Caring for your pet will be around your daily life and care for them, if they are crate trained or sleep in their own bed or in ours we will stick to what you/they know best to keep everything as natural and comfortable during their stay.

“Maya was absolutely great. This was the first time I’d had a sitter stay in my home whilst I was away. Maya kept me up to date with regular photos and messages. The dogs loved her and she looked after them like her own. I definitely recommend Maya.”

About: I’ve worked in a kennel previously and I know the love and affection dogs require when their pawrents are away and I can certainly provide that. I have also graduated from University with a degree in Animal Management so animals are a big part of my life. I am currently at uni only 1 day a week working on a degree in animal management so I have plenty of free time to walk your pooches. On walks, I prioritise your dogs needs and abilities by providing tailored sessions ensuring safe and stimulating environments. Each dogs temperament and fitness level is considered when going out on walks. I focus on their safety and enjoyment whilst providing a stress free environment.

“Tasha was great with our cats having so much experience with her own we felt like our two would be right at home with her and we were right :) It was a last minute booking we needed but she made time to visit us the day before to meet our cats and go over their needs (as fitz especially is a weird one and bee hasn’t been dealing with the heat too well) She sent the most photos we’ve ever gotten from a cat sitter which really put our minds at ease. Thank you so much!”

About: I've always had pets, mainly cats but have also owned a husky & labrador in the past. Truly animal obsessed 😍 currently have 2 house cats (rescues). I currently work from home, wanting to get this started so I can reduce my hours and spend more time giving back to the world of fur! Whatever your pet needs can be arranged, I'm open to personalised requests based on your pets needs and will cater the service to provide the best care.

“Amelia, what can I say! Teddy loves you. We hired Amelia to look after Teddy for almost two weeks while we were on holiday. She came to our home to look after him during the day (our son was home for the evenings) and I felt so relaxed that he was in such good hands. Teddy is a sensitive dog and doesn’t warm to everyone. He loves her! Thank you so much Amelia. It made our holiday that our gorgeous boy was so well looked after and had lots of cuddles. We will definitely stay in touch and book again. Incredible service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Julie saved us when our pet sitter cancelled last minute before our wedding earlier in the month. We've never left our pets with anyone (non-family/friends) before and were quite worried about our dog Walter. We needn't have been concerned as they were all happy on our return! If we need another pet sitter again I'll be contacting Julie first. I would definitely recommend!”

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs and seen them through lots of different life stages including senior dog care and puppy training. I love animals and am home all the time so can provide very attentive care. Your pet would be a part of our family and we can adapt to their routine so they are as comfortable as possible. I work entirely from home so happy to fit around your pets schedule. I can spend up to 4 hours each day providing play or exercise. Other than attending the gym once a day for up to an hour I can ensure your pet has company all day and for around your regular schedule. I have a fenced garden and live on the river path where I can walk your dog to the beach. I have a dog loving fur baby of my own to keep your pet company and ensure they never feel alone

“Jessica was a fantastic dog sitter. I felt really at ease knowing my dog was left in such capable hands. She sent regular updates, asked questions rather than just guessing, and truly cared for my dog. I would certainly recommend!”

“JP took such wonderful care of our two dogs they both settled with her so quickly and enjoyed some beautiful walks during our stay in Durham. It was such a relief for us to know that they were being so well cared for whilst we went out during the day exploring and spending time away from them during our weekend away. We are planning to come back again in a few months and will definitely be rebooking if we bring the dogs back with us again. Thank you so much xx”

“Olivia recently stayed at our home and looked after our very energetic needy Labrador Oreo. We instantly felt at ease leaving Oreo with Olivia, she has great knowledge in looking after dogs and Oreo fell in love with her straight away, we will definitely use Olivia again in the future! Thanks again Olivia”
