“Laura is an amazing sitter! Fast communication, really friendly and she clearly loves dogs! Our fur babies had a lovely time when she came to sit them. Will be using Laura again for sure!”
About: I currently walk, board and sit dogs full time. I grew up with two german shepherds and love taking care of dogs of all sizes. I've looked after puppies and senior pooches, and I have experience with training dogs in the house and on walks. I take care of dogs full time, including sitting, boarding and walking. I'm available to walk dogs at all times of day, and live with my boyfriend who often helps. I have a gated garden with no children or other pets, so the dogs will have free roam. I live next to Cannon Hill Park for the dogs to have more of a run around.
“I was worried about hiring a sitter for my cat since I have have a lot of requests on how to take care of her, but Daria didn't even bat an eye and followed all instructions to a T. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Jenny looked after our cat Meg for a week while we were away on holiday. She's an older cat and somewhat stuck in her ways which makes her a bit shy with new people, but she was very patient and tried to bring her out of her shell (even through the odd hiss - sorry about that Jenny!). We had daily updates with photos and lots of communication which made us very reassured that she was ok and being well looked after which in turn made us able to enjoy our holiday so much more. We'd definitely use her again and would recommend to anyone.”

“Macey provides a superb service. Leaving your loved ones in the hands of others is very difficult. So one relies upon competency, care and professionalism. Macey’s care of our two little frenchies whilst we were away for the weekend embodied all these things and more. She was prompt, supplied photos and the dogs loved her. We’ll definitely call upon her again!”
“Extremely reliable and kind to both the pet and the pet parents. Updates are done in a timely and precise manner. A true pleasure collaborating with her. We were able to enjoy a stress-free holiday.”

I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take time to help them feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. I always make sure food, water, litter boxes, and living spaces stay clean and well maintained, and I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own.
“Diana was an amazing cat sitter for my two cats! She kept me constantly informed and went the extra mile when one of them made a bit of a mess. She was very caring, and is an amazing communicator! Would highly recommend her! ”
About: I have been dog sitting for 5 years now and love it. I have a big country park very close so my dogs get plenty of exercise and even a swim in the lake if it's hot enough. I'm available 24/7 but as I'm not driving at the moment it's hard to be available for more then 2 drop ins a day, but that's depends on distance to travel. My garden is well fenced off and save, dog friendly home. When my regular dogs come over they're so happy to see me and I can't wait to see them too, I think that shows how much fun we both have. I treat each dog as I would my own, Peace of mind is very important.

“Tanvi was very professional liaising all the time, before and during her drop-in home visit with photos to ease my worries. My 6yr old Cockapoo Teddy is very anxious and not good with strangers, but he gelled well with Tanvi. The afternoon was a success and I am confident to leave Teddy in her capable hands for another visit really soon. I would highly recommend Tanvi to any dog owners with similar worries about leaving their dog.”

Thurrock cat owners share their Rover experiences
Val was an amazing cat sitter! She had great communication throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We came home to a very content kitty and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Val and would absolutely book with her again!
Jodie was amazing. She went above and beyond to look after my fur babies. Keeps the house tidy from all the mess the cats/kittens made which she really didn’t have to. Defo will be recommending her to others in the area and will be using her services again. Just a great person! We love her!
Dora is warm and super professional – you can tell straight away she knows what she’s doing and has lots of experience. My cat Luna usually only rolls around on the carpet for me (it’s her little way of showing trust), and I’ve never seen her do that with someone new before! But she warmed up to Dora almost instantly – a true cat whisperer. I’m so happy with the care Dora gave, and she was really flexible with my plans too. Highly recommend!
Daisy was an amazing cat sitter for my girl Lilo! I got adorable videos and photos from every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Lilo looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Highly recommend Daisy – she’s a true animal lover and so reliable! 💕🐾
