“Absolutely thrilled to have found Eve on here! After a last minute panic needing our dogs looking after whilst we all went away, she came and met our dogs (who absolutely loved her!) within 24 hours and was fantastic during each of her visits. Photos, updates and comments each time and we are so thankful that she was able to come with such short notice. Thank you! We’ll definitely be seeing you again- I know Max and Peppa will be happy with that! 😍”
“Thank you so much to Jessica Sammy has clearly loved seeing you every morning and has put my mind at ease being away that he’s been cared for so well. Jessica was lovely when we met to introduce Sammy and it can be a lot having a diabetic jab to do everyday so I thank her for taking that in her stride and doing it, I will definitely choose Jess if she’s free for our next holiday and I’m sure Sammy would be thrilled to see her again! Thank you!”

My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s routine.

Whether it’s a walk, feeding, medication or companionship, I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated throughout my visit.
About: I love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've grown up with labradors and cocker spaniels, so I'm used to sociable, high-energy dogs. I've studied animal behaviour and cognition so I actively research and apply this theory when handling new dogs. I'm comfortable working with rescue dogs, and happy to take it slow with seniors who'd prefer a relaxed visit. I'm out walking my dog whatever the weather, and I have flexible working hours so I'm happy visit your dog(s) during the day and take them on some lovely long walks! My house has enough space for small or large dogs, and I have an enclosed garden they can enjoy. My spaniel, Cleo, will be around to help your dog feel comfortable. 🐶 I'm out walking whatever the weather! My job is flexible, and I tend to have time in the afternoons, so I am available to help out during the day for walks or home visits. My dog gets treated like royalty and yours will too! I'll respond to their personality and work with you to meet their specific needs while they're with me.
“Kerry was reliable and friendly and brilliant with my cat who she looked after really well. My cat is a nervous cat but Kerry was able to help him feel comfortable with her. It was nice to receive the lovely photos Kerry sent to show my cat was doing well and making friends with her. Thank you, Kerry!”
“Kelly is absolutely fantastic. So friendly, informative and reassuring. She provided us with lots of photos and updates. Lots of communication before, during and after her visit and made us feel totally at ease. We will be re-booking with her weekly. Couldn’t recommend Kelly enough!”
About: Following years of dog sitting for family and being desperate for a dog of my own, I finally adopted my Labrador puppy Jessie in 2025. My life has completely changed for the better both physically and mentally. I understand how difficult it is to find dog care you can trust and the need for peace of mind when you’re away or at work. I’m responsible, caring, reliable and genuinely love dogs! I’m currently working part time, so am flexible with my commitments. I am happy to take last minute requests for dog care and love nothing more than a long walk! I have a two year old Labrador called Jessie and a large, secure garden. My local area has lots of lovely areas for walking and fields for running around.
“Our cat, Evie, had a lovely time with Eleanor. Evie recently needed a change to her diet and some new medication, so it was important to us that we left her in safe hands. Eleanor certainly was the perfect person for the job, and we would absolutely recommend her and book her again. 5* :) ”
“Thank you for checking in on my girls while I was away. I really appreciate it. Hopefully you will be happy ro help me again in the future. Excellent service and the cats were perfect when I got back.”
About: I am a reliable and caring pet sitter with extensive experience looking after pets for family and friends. I genuinely love animals and take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I always ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am self-employed and spend a lot of time at home, so I’m able to give a pet plenty of attention, companionship, and regular care throughout the day. I can easily manage feeding, playtime, grooming, and making sure they feel comfortable and settled. I also love going for walks, so daily exercise and outdoor time would be an enjoyable part of my routine for both me and the pet. I care for pets by providing a safe, calm, and loving environment where their individual needs always come first. In my home, I make sure they have a clean, comfortable space, regular feeding times, fresh water, exercise, play, and plenty of attention. I follow the owner’s routines as closely as possible so pets feel secure and settled. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space while maintaining the pet’s normal schedule, including walks, feeding, medication if required, cleaning up after them, and keeping them company. I pay close attention to behaviour, mood, and wellbeing, and I always communicate with owners through updates, photos, and messages so they feel reassured while they are away.
About: I have had dogs in my life since the day I was born in all shapes and sizes. I care for many family and friends dogs when they’re on holiday. I’ve personally owned 5 dogs in my 22 years and cared for more than 25 dogs so I am more than capable of handling and loving any kind of dog x I’m a part time residential carer so will be at home most of the week and my partner is always at home on the days that I am working so your pups will never be left alone❤️ I also have my own fur baby so plenty of company and playing available🐾 I have a completely secure garden so your dogs can’t escape while they’re out or while we’re playing. I do have my own dog now so it’s essential that your dogs are okay with other dogs- he’s a big boy but still thinks he’s a lap dog🙈
About: I have been a dog owner for 14 years. I used to be mom to a boxer and a lab/collie mix, but sadly lost them both recently due to illness and age. (They were both 12/13 years old). I was also mom to a blind Lhasa Apso, who considering she couldn’t see-certainly had a personality to make up for it. Sadly she passed due to illness and age recently as well. I have recently become mom to a miniature dachshund called Parker. All of my pets have taught me things about dogs and how each one needs to be loved differently, due to their personalities. I’m here to provide care to your pets, when they need it. I currently work from home-so have plenty of time to care for your pets, and provide the attention that they need. Be it a walk a day and being returned home after, or receiving care at my own home for the day. I am flexible and here for your pet. I always carry a spare lead with me-in case there are any issues on walks. For care in my own home-I have a secure garden, and have room to crate if that is what your pet is used to and comfortable with.
About: Hi I’m Katie, I LOVE most pets (maybe slightly more wary of a tarantula) but any other animals I love! I was born into a house full of snakes, my dad was a breeder, so I love snakes! I had my first own pet, a rabbit, at age 4 and he lived for 13 years! I then had a hamster, and I have had cats for over 10 years. I have also had dogs too! So a wide range of experience with different animals! I have a full-time work from home role, which means I am fairly flexible around your needs. I can visit before and after work, or I can house sit all day, if you would be happy with me using your WiFi for my full time work laptop. I do not offer services in which a pet comes to my own home, but I am always willing to care for your pets at the comfort of your own home, where your pet feels safest.
“Ella did a great job looking after our old rescue dog, Ruby. She sent regular updates and we came home to a happy little pup after her care. We will definitely be using Ella again and would recommend her highly”
About: Long walks, hill walks, running (to be honest, it’s more jogging 😂), sitting in cafes; whatever your furry friend prefers let me know and I’ll come up with a plan! After 20 years in an office, I’ve broken free and am available during the day and some evenings. I’m in the lucky position of being pretty flexible! We have a 3 story family home, which we share with our Cavapoo, Rocket. Your dog, like ours, has free run of the house and small fenced garden. I will be solely responsible for the dogs, however my family will be around. My daughter is the animal whisperer, but my wife and son love being along for the ride.

Jessica was fantastic!! I felt very comfortable with her looking after our cat, Lottie. Lottie definitely seemed to love her and we received great updates and photos every day. Would definitely recommend Jessica and have her again, thank you so much Jessica!!
Steph was professional, communicative and thoughtful, throughout all times before, during and after she cared for our cat. Our cat is usually extremely timid and scared of any stranger, yet took to Steph immediately. Steph was consistently on time, detailed in her reports and always approachable with any specific requests that we had. An absolute delight and we are supremely grateful for her support and care, over what I'd always a very stressful period, let alone with a loved pet at home. Thank you Steph!
Madison is very professional and reliable. This was our first time using a pet sitting service of any kind and were quite nervous. Maddiecwad very understanding and reassuring, our cats enjoyed her visits and I'm sure krit looking for her afterwards. We would definitely recommend and will rebook in the future. Thank you!

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.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Telford pet parents with similar pet households.
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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Telford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements.

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.
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.
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.
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.
