“Shannon was fantastic looking after our very grumpy cat while we were away! She popped in every morning to feed him and sort the litter tray, and it was such a relief knowing he was being so well looked after. We really appreciated the updates, and, he was clearly very well cared for. Would definitely recommend Shannon to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.”
“This was my first tome booking Rebecca and certainly won’t be the last as she was super reliable, conscientious and took amazing care of my cat Naomi. I came back to a very relaxed and happy cat.”
“I was incredibly nervous as this is the first time I’ve had to use a dog sitter/checker before but can’t believe my luck that Lizzy said yes! She offered to meet them to see how they would get on before taking on the booking and discuss the logistics due to my particular circumstances, and they loved her. She kept me well informed of how they were throughout the day and went above and beyond to tackle muddy paws when I hadn’t thought about the risk of rain! Highly recommend.”
“Came home to a very happy kitty! When Katherine came to meet us, my shy girl went straight over to say hello and was obviously very comfortable! She kept me updated and spent lots of time with my girl! Even watered the garden for me! Highly recommend 😺”
“Annie was amazing with Gyda and Floki. They both seemed so happy and well looked after when I got home. She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
About: Hello, my name is Anna. I am a pet lover (obviously) who has grown up in a family full of animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, tortoises and a parrot. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs, reactive dogs and puppies. I am well-versed in handling various breeds and temperaments. I provide daily updates with photos so you can rest assured your pets are well-cared for. I’m currently working part time as a pet-sitter and dog walker after moving from Canada where I worked as a nurse so I am available for house-sitting in Tewkesbury and surrounding areas. I work 2 nights a week as a nurse. I’m able to look after your pet in their own environment where it will feel safe and secure and am used to looking after pets in their own homes. I can walk your dogs at a time convenient for you or simply spend time with them if you have a long work day.

About: We took some time out to complete some home renovations, but we are ready to welcome your furry friends back into our home ❤️ I have owned and looked after dogs since I was 13. Since getting our first puppy I truly can’t imagine my life without them. I love to provide a home away from home for your furry friends 🥰 I rescued a beautiful Shepherd mix from Turkey in 2019 so am experienced in rescue dogs or dogs with particular needs. We love to provide a home away from home for your dogs and will send regular updates and pictures. We live close to some beautiful walks so your furry friends won’t be without adventure. I am lucky enough to work from home full time so have a very flexible schedule that allows me to care for your dogs and be there throughout the day I have a good sized fenced garden to ensure your dogs safety. Our house is quite large so we’re confident we have the space for large and small dogs to ensure a comfortable stay. My partner and I are very versatile so can care for all dogs and are confident we can make them as comfortable as possible.
“It's my first time using a pro dog sitter, and I was nervous as I have an elderly Pugzu and a nervous Frenchie puppy so kennels aren't an option. Needn't have worried, my boys thoroughly enjoyed having Stefani and Alex look after them, even my nervous/reactive puppy was as happy as anything! I received plenty of brilliant photos of my boys smiling away and updates throughout the visits! Was so nice to enjoy our day out without worrying, and we came home to two very happy boys who wanted to tell us all about it! Will absolutely use again, 10/10! 😊”
About: I first began taking care of animals when the neighbors would ask my sister and I to watch their cats and small animals while away. Then I finally convinced my parents to get a family dog and that’s where most of my experience is! During covid years, my friend and I have been doing house/pet sitting for family friends for the past year and I enjoy it so much. Unfortunately we lost our precious family dog Jack a couple years ago and having moved from the US to the UK, I am seriously missing animal interaction ! I am pursuing a masters degree in social work from UoG and am currently on a full-time placement until the end of July. During placement I work Monday-Friday, 9-4:30 but am available in evenings and weekends. Once placement ends I will have much more free time and flexibility. While I am currently living in an apartment and will not be able to bring your pet home with me, I enjoy going for long walks in some beautiful neighborhoods or parks of which Cheltenham has plenty to offer! I am also happy to check in on your fur baby for potty breaks, feeding time, or just to share some company for a while or even extend it to overnight house sitting as well if that makes them feel more secure!
About: I’ve had experience working at a dog kennels, I’ve owned pets such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish and I currently have a black lab called Ozzy, he’s loving and so rewarding! I’ve recently started studying so I am very available to help around my studies! Just drop me a message and I can be very flexible! I will follow your wishes! With our dog we mostly have him on lead, but certain fields around Tewkesbury he’ll have a good run off the lead! Giving him lots of love when we’re at home!!
About: I’ve always had a family dog since I was born - two weinmaranas. This encouraged me to walk both neighbours and family members dogs from a young age of 10. Therefore, animals have always been a passion of mine leading to me committing to a zoology degree at university. It has taught me how important animals are for our ecosystems as well as for our own health. Apart from university, I have no other commitments meaning I am only available on weekdays: Monday/Tuesday- 12:40-4:30, Thursday/Friday- 9:15-12:30. I am fully available over the weekend. I will follow all the owners instructions of the routines and/or equipment they would like me to use appropriately to ensure the best care for their pet.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 8 years old. And now care for my 2 rescue dogs, alongside my family, who we have had for four years. I have also dog sitted for family/family friends. I love to go on long walks and spend time with dogs. I have recently graduated from university, and am not working, so would love to pet sit in my free time, and this can be on short notice as I am not committed to a job currently. When caring for your dog in your home I will ensure I follow all instructions you provide, as well as attention, walks and all the TLC your dog(s) need!
About: I’ve been looking after animals for over 10 years with a warm caring understanding way about me to ensure they are happy comfortable and content I currently work from home full time so I will be there for full time care, able to go on walks and toilet breaks whenever are necessary and able to stick to their schedule. I would treat them as my own with love and care. Stick to their routine and ensure they are happy, content and comfortable in their surroundings
About: I’ve grown up with 3 dogs my whole life. I’ve had animals from rodents to reptiles to dogs and cats and horse you name it! Currently, I have a super friendly cat who enjoys to spend most of his time outside in the yard and a 4 year old horse. I use to be a dog walker back when i lived in Belgium. I love to be outdoors and the happiness and comfort of any animal in my care is my main priority. I currently spend most of my time at home or with my horse at the yard. First thing in the morning is to make sure my cat is fed and ready for his day outside, exploring the yard. As I love to be outside, I spend a couple hours of my day at the stables, riding and taking care of my horse. I love to go on walks in the forest or at the park so I make sure to get my steps in and enjoy the sunshine. I have a fenced yard with lots of grass and shade. I also have a hose, so if you pet likes to play with water or have a cool down that can definitely be done! I have a large downstairs living space, so lots of room for your pets to explore and find a comfortable spot. I like to keep my house quite minimal and clean as that suits me and my cat best.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a small child. With always having a dog in the family home. Now I have my own Cavalier King Charles spaniel who I absolutely adore! So I work part time as a Nurse. I work 3 days a week Monday-friday. So I am available 4 days a week to take care of your furry friends. Very flexible on my days off. I have a very secure garden, and I live in a 3 bedroom house so plenty of room. My dog is very much a huge part of my family he snuggles up on the sofa with me and is able to roam around all over the house with no restrictions.
About: My Grandma has had Boxers ever since I was born, I have always loved being around dogs and look forward to having my own. Unfortunately with my current housing situation i’m unable to have my own dog so I always look forward to looking after a dog whenever I can. I have looked after my Grans dogs on several occasions whether it be whilst she is on holiday, or needs to go somewhere dog free for the day. I work mon-thu 8am until 6pm so will be unable to provide care these days, however I would really like to fill up my weekends with a small friend. I have a fenced patio which is perfectly safe for any dog, however I prefer to provide care in your home or just go for walks!

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 Tewkesbury 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.

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.
