About: We’ve grown up with dogs and have been around them most of our lives, so we’re very comfortable handling their day-to-day needs. We also regularly look after friends’ dogs, which has given us experience with a range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. We both work from home every day, so dogs in our care get plenty of attention, supervision, and company throughout the day. We’re used to managing feeding, walks, and general care, and we make sure to stick to each dog’s usual routine to help them stay settled while their owners are away. During the week, we both work from home, with one office day each scheduled on different days, ensuring that there is always one of us at home to care for the dog. We finish work at 3pm, allowing plenty of time for an evening walk and attention. On weekends, we are not working, so the dog would enjoy more dedicated time with us, often including day trips typically to the beach. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are a top priority. The property features a secure, fully fenced garden with a padlocked gate, providing a safe outdoor space for exercise and play, including a generous area of natural grass. We are also fully licensed by the local council for dog sitting, meaning the home has been inspected and approved to meet required safety standards. For added peace of mind, we do not own any dogs and never mix pets from different households, ensuring your dog receives dedicated care and a calm, controlled environment at all times.

Juliette was so professional and warm in our initial communication, and then so flexible when it came to making arrangements for our dog, Baloo, She was very friendly and welcoming when we arrived, and clearly loves dogs! Baloo instantly took to her and it was clear that they were going to have a great weekend. Juliette sent regular updates and photos, and we could relax knowing Baloo was in great hands. We definitely recommend Juliette as a dog sitter, and would happily get back in touch if we’re in the Swansea area again and are in need of dog care. Thank you, Juliette!
Nia is an absolutely exceptional dog sitter, and I couldn't recommend her more highly. She has looked after my dog, Gertie, many times, and every visit reinforces just how wonderful she is. Gertie absolutely adores Nia and is always so happy to spend time with her. As an owner, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your dog is genuinely excited to see the person caring for them. What really sets Nia apart is her natural understanding that every dog has its own unique personality, quirks, and individual needs. She takes the time to get to know each dog as an individual, making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. It's no surprise that dogs feel so comfortable with her. Nia is warm, kind, patient, and wonderfully calm—qualities that make all the difference when caring for our precious pets. She treats every dog as if they were her own, and that gives owners complete peace of mind when they're away. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone as trustworthy and compassionate as Nia. If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog with genuine love, understanding, and dedication, I wholeheartedly recommend her.
Rosie was fantastic with our energetic 1 year old Border Collie while we were away at a wedding. She sent lots of updates and photos, which really put me and my partner at ease knowing he was happy and well looked after. It was clear he had plenty of fun and attention. We’d happily leave him with Rosie again and would definitely recommend her.
I cannot recommend Amy highly enough. We met her and her fiance with Bailey prior to her looking after him. He took to her immediately and I could tell how much she loved him as well. While we were away Amy messaged me daily and sent me a photo. We have never left Bailey with anyone before except family and I knew he was being well looked after. We will not hesitate to use Amy again. Thank you so much.
Just picked Mac up after his stay with Kieren. Mac was fabulously relaxed and we found a very happy boy. Mac is a big GSD who Kieren understood and kept chilled. Kieren messaged us with updates. Would wholeheartedly recommend him to look after your pooch. 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾
Our dog had a lovely stay with Mollie. She was great with sending through pictures and updates which helped me relax, knowing that he was being well looked after and having a lovely time. Will definitely be looking to see if Mollie is available the next time we need a boarder and would 100% recommend
Jacob looked after our 15 week old Belgian Malinois for 4 days, communication was excellent he updated us with videos photos and messages so we felt completely at ease, Jacob followed our instructions on exercise and feeding very well and Bella was very happy and healthy on her return to us, We would highly recommend Jacob to anyone
Wonderful! Our Lucy was well looked after and I had complete peace of mind. Lovely to see photo updates , I think she had fun with your beautiful dogs. Thanks for giving Lucy a great time, so much better than any kennel experience, we'd definitely love for Lucy to come again.
Cae is amazing with animals, Beau (my dog) was really happy staying with Car overnight, I definitely felt though Beau was in excellent hands , I received regular photos and updates, which was so lovely and reassuring! I would certainly recommend him and use Cae again!!
Always a 5⭐️ whenever max stays here! Brilliant communication, max has stayed with Kingsley a good few times now, an when we pull up he knows where he is and gets super excited to see Kingsley! There’s no one else I trust more than to have our special boy! We feel fully relaxed when he’s in his care! Thank you again Kingsley!

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.
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.
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.
