About: Hi there. I have had pets all my adult live and grew up with them. I will love and care for them and am spend real time with them as I can work from your home if needed. :) I work for myself, running a small yoga and mindfulness studio and teaching. I am also a trainee counsellor. Much of my work is online so I can do it anywhere! I am very reliable and trustworthy. Caring for animals is one of the huge pleasures in my life so it would be a privilege to look after yours too.

“I cannot recommend Amy highly enough. On our first meeting she showed a real true care with my cats and they took to her instantly too. Working away is always a worry when leaving our cats in the hands of others, especially as we have two with medical needs, so finding Rover and Amy has been a blessing. To receive a notification when Amy is with them is of great comfort and to see daily check list and photos was very welcomed. Arriving home to a lovely clean space where the trays and food areas were spotless was wonderful and or cats look like they had a blast and love their new kitty nanny! I will be booking Amy for our Holiday next year knowing that they are in safe and caring hands!”


About: I’ve helped my parents walking our dog since he was a puppy. I’ll feed him on time and company him when his family aren’t around. I’ll make sure he has a familiar person during thunderstorms and fireworks. I’m currently working part time and will be free most days of the week. I’m an animal person so they fit in perfectly with my free time. I have a fenced and good sized garden where my dog can safely play and have fun. I make sure my dog has a walk and playtime. He has his food accordingly and a relaxing evening before bed.

“Megan was reliable and kept us updated whilst we were away. For 10 days she did drop in visits to our kittens and stayed in good communication with us. This is the 2nd time we’ve used Megan and we would rebook her again in the future. She was great with our cats and they enjoyed her company.”


About: I have had all sort of animals from a young age, from cats & dogs, chickens, mice, budgies, bunnies & guinea pigs, hamster and horses!! My previous dog was a black Labrador who suffered with severe arthritis and was blind needing eye-drops and oral medication multiple times a day, so I would also be able to do this for your pet if needed. I love the outdoors and love exploring a forest or beach with some 4 legged friends. I have a dog-friendly 4x4 with plenty of space for all sizes, plus a ramp for those less agile pooches. On walks your dog will be walked singly, with other dogs of your household or I can bring Ozzy along for company - however you prefer! (Ozzy will stay at home for house visits) I currently work mon-fri 9-5 but am usually working from home so can supervise during the day. Walking in afternoons and evenings, and most weekends. Fenced back garden with CCTV covering the front and rear entrance as well as garden. Dogs will never be outside unsupervised. Dog freezer for those raw fed dog.

About: With a lifelong passion for animals, I bring a wealth of personal experience to pet care. Growing up surrounded by dogs, I've developed an innate understanding of their needs and behaviours. My family's adoption of a German Pointer introduced me to the world of gun-dog training, where I gained invaluable insights into discipline, obedience, and nurturing a strong bond with our four-legged friends. Now, with over a decade of caring for our beloved Pointer, I offer not just expertise but also a genuine love for all dogs entrusted to my care. Breeds I provide regular care for include pointers, patterdale terriers, labradors, labradoodles, spaniels, whippets, German sheppards and pugs to name just a few. I have just returned from travelling so am between jobs. This means I’m very flexible with no work or childcare ties. I am open to boarding but would like to meet first. To minimise disruption to our family dogs lives, I will only be providing care in the owners home, meaning I will be following your rules. I’m happy to follow routines and keep training consistent, whether that means crates at night or sharing a bed, I’m open to whatever suits your dogs needs.

About: Ive always had constant animal experience, weather thats walking and feeding my neighbours dogs or looking after my aunties cats. I now have a beautiful frenchie who is 4 years old and spoilt rotten! Pet care would be most suitable for me alongside my study, as i find looking after animals a very calming and giving experience. My schedules are usually very open and i can be flexible around my schedule. Im a very responsible trustworthy adult who provides constant care for my mums frenchie. i understand how difficult it can be to trust an individual, therefore happy to compromise on any safety precautions needed.

About: Hello! I am hoping to join Rover and meet many pet friends. I have grown up adorning animals and in particular, have an immense love for dogs. I have a part time, remote job giving me plenty of time to watch over and care for pets. I live on a ground floor, spacious flat with community parks and fields surrounding that have lots of room for dogs to run and play. I have years of experiencing caretaking for dogs and will make sure your pet is well looked after! I love going for walks and would be more than happy to have a dog walking schedule set up everyday. Message me for more details if you’d like! I am available Monday-Sunday at any time of the day. I offer boarding, daytime play/care, and dog walking. I work from home part-time and can lots of care, play and attention throughout the day. I live on a ground flat that is spacious inside along with a large floor balcony. Surrounding my flat is lots of fields and parks where many other dog owners take their pets to run and play.

About: I have a genuine interest in giving your dog the best experience possible, whether its taking them on an awesome walk or having them stay in our loving home. I have been the go to pet sitter for all my friends and family for a good few years and have now decided to expand and offer out my services a little further afield. I have my own dog agility club which my dog guests may be able to take part in on request of their owners. I have 2 dog of my own, both cross breeds, one small and one medium sized, they are friendly, kind and welcoming to new dogs, but are also up for playing. Im looking forward to hearing from you so we can discuss your needs. I currently work full time so am only offering drop In services and dog walking at present. I do shift work which means I will have different times avaliable. In the near future I will be offering boarding services, when I do, the dogs will get walked twice a day except on agility club days where my dogs and any doggy guests will accompany me at the agility field. On my days off we may go out for the day for a longer walk/adventure. if your dog prefers the quiet life then they can stay home and get a short walk and snuggle up. If it is dog walking service you are looking for I will be avaliable mornings and afternoons depending on my shifts, I can walk them solo or with my own dogs depending on your preference. Once I offer boarding services, your dog will become part of the family, joing in with our daily walks, games and snuggles.. I have a secure garden and my house is very close to a beach and nature reserve. When providing walking services I will walk them in the local area near your home unless a trip farther afield has been agreed.

Lucia C.
“Lucia is kind and compassionate, a real animal lover who takes the utmost care with her own pets and those in her charge. She has experience with dogs and cats, giving them the care and attention they need when the owners are at work or on holiday. She visited my sister’s cat twice a day while she was away and being able to stay at home suited him so much better than going to a cattery. She is honest and reliable and I trust her implicitly with my dog who is always made to feel special.”

She loves long walks come rain or shine, has handled big dogs and small dogs with ease. She knows many different walking routes and has some of the greatest beach’s in Essex on her doorstep. I personally couldn’t recommend any other person to look after your pup!!”

Tara W.
“Tara has looked after my chocolate labrador several times. Frankly, he comes back to me happier, more obedient and healthier than when he goes. It's literally a holiday for him. She adores dogs and has vast experience with all breeds through her work and qualifications as an advanced dog trainer. I trust her more than I trust myself with Charlie and wouldn't use anyone else. Totally devoted, qualified, conscientious, trustworthy and professional. Head and shoulders above most out there that are just looking to make a few quid at the expense of your dog's wellbeing.”
