About: I’ve been dog walking and boarding for over two years, and I’m usually the first call when friends need someone to care for their pets while they’re away. I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always been part of my life. I’m a massive dog lover (my daughter is too!), and your pup will be treated like one of the family. I’m currently working part time and my job allows me to be home almost all the time. I tend to have max. of 2 dogs at time so they get as much attention and care as possible I am based in Livermead, only 5mins from the beach where dogs are welcome even during the summer and 5mins drive to Cockington park. Walk along seafront is always good too! Garden is fenced, and location is perfect for walkies.
About: Looking for a friendly, reliable dog walker or someone to check in on your pet while you're away? I'm here to help. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Torbay, providing personalised care to suit your dog's individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, gentle strolls, playtime, or simply some company and reassurance during the day, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. During drop-in visits, I'm happy to feed your dog, refresh their water, let them out into the garden, play with them, administer basic medication if required, and give them lots of fuss and companionship. For walks, I always prioritise your dog's safety and wellbeing, ensuring they're exercised at a pace that's right for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages after every visit or walk, giving you complete peace of mind. Your dog will be treated with kindness, patience, and respect, as if they were my own. Whether you need regular weekly walks or occasional drop-in visits, I'd love to help keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and cared for while you're busy. Pet care is my main focus, which means I have a flexible schedule and can offer walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I enjoy spending time outdoors and making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I always allow enough time between bookings so that each pet receives my full attention without feeling rushed. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits in your pet's own home and do not provide boarding or pet care in my home. During every visit, I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I'm happy to provide fresh food and water, toilet breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. I can also administer basic medication if required and will always ensure your home is left tidy and secure before I leave. For dog walks, I tailor each walk to your dog's age, energy level, and individual needs, always putting their safety and wellbeing first. After every visit or walk, I'll send you photos and an update so you can see how your pet is getting on and have complete peace of mind.

About: About Me – Your Trusted Pet Care Provider Hi, I’m Hayley, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes! From cats and dogs to hamsters, tortoises, and even fish—I’ve had the joy of looking after them all. My journey with animals started young, working in a veterinary practice while still in school. I then spent two years at Paignton Zoo while earning my BTEC in Animal Care, followed by university studies in Animal Science. My passion for animal welfare even took me to South Africa, where I self-funded a trip to work on a conservation park alongside incredible wildlife like elephants and lions. More recently, I sadly lost my beloved blue Staffy, Luna. She was my best friend, and her passing has left a paw-shaped hole in my heart. That’s why I’m offering my time, love, and experience to care for your pets as if they were my own. Whether it’s dog walking, pet sitting, or boarding, I provide a safe, loving, and experienced service you can trust. Let’s give your furry (or scaly!) family members the care they deserve! Get in touch today—I can’t wait to meet them. I work part time - on a hybrid basis- at home and elsewhere if needed. This means I have flexibility on working hours but on some days I may be out of the house for a few hours but I provide full transparency on this. Depending on your pets requirements I would love a chat and meet your furry friends to see how I can help you out! I have a welcoming bungalow with a fenced outside area. This does contain some stairs. I allow my pets on the sofa but they must be flea and tick treated. I have a large crate and a dog bed which can be located in our roomy utility room if they need a safe environment that’s quiet.
“Our two disabled cats now have a new Aunty, Sophie was kind caring and sent lovely photos for us that put us at ease, reliable and trustworthy we will definitely use again next time we go away. Thank you Sophie for taking care of our Furbabies”
“Robyn is brilliant and she made sure that our cat was happy and cared for. We couldn't have found a better person to look after our cat. Robyn is a great communicator and always responded promptly if we had any questions. I can't recommend her enough.”
About: From a young age, animals have been my passion and constant companions. Growing up, I've had the joy of owning various pets, and currently, my home is filled with the delightful energy of my two well-behaved dogs and six adorable hamsters. What sets me apart is not just my experience in pet ownership, but the genuine love and dedication I pour into caring for each animal. Their well-being is my top priority, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a part-time stylist, my schedule offers the perfect flexibility to dedicate ample time to pet care. Beyond my work in the hair industry, my days are centered around caring for my own beloved animals. With a deep passion for animals, I'm eager to extend my care to others and assist those who need help with their precious pets. I'm committed to using my free time to provide attentive, loving care, ensuring every pet receives the attention and support they deserve. When caring for pets in an owner's home, my priority is to maintain their established routine and provide a safe, comfortable environment. I follow the owner's instructions meticulously, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, and any necessary medication is administered on time. I'm attentive to the pet's behavior and needs, offering plenty of affection and playtime while also respecting their personal space. Regular communication with the owner is key, providing updates and photos to ensure peace of mind and maintain a strong sense of trust. My goal is to make the pet feel secure and loved in their own home while their owner is away.
About: We’ve both had dogs in our lives from young ages. Ash’s mum has had many litters so we are well versed in puppy care too! We are happy to discuss puppy & elderly dogs coming to stay with us too. We have looked after our family’s dogs and cats many times. Look forward to hearing from you! We are both busy term time Monday - Friday but can dog sit in the evenings if needed. Very free on the weekends and half terms if and when you need it. We are happy to take dogs out evenings and weekends. We have a fenced back garden and no other dogs for them to play with unfortunately! We are happy for them to be crated whilst they’re with us. We had an open space kitchen so can easily stretch out in there for the living room.
About: Completely animal obsessed with a loving and caring nature. I have grown up with pets my whole life and I would love nothing more than to look after your little fluffys and give them the care and attention they deserve. They will be loved and well looked after like they were my own 😍🥰 I work from home and can be very flixibke so there will be plenty of love/time and attention to go around in giving the best possible care for your little ones. I am incredibly active, I love going on walks and trips to the beach but at the same time love down time and nothing more than relaxing at home all cosy on the sofa with a film ❤️ I can care for your fur baby’s in the comforts of your own home at request I can be flexible as I can of course take my work anywhere with me.(Location dependant).
About: I’ve had dogs by my side for as long as I can remember from a very early age, from bouncy pups to gentle seniors and everything in between - including my current dog, a Romanian rescue, Jonas, who is now my best friend! Over the years, I’ve experienced all kinds of personalities — including those a little shy, anxious, or reactive — and I truly believe every dog deserves patience, understanding, and a walk they can enjoy. I know our dogs become family - so when you trust me with your pup, whether for a quick walk or a longer holiday, you can rest easy knowing they’ll be treated like one of my own. My walks are safe, relaxed, and full of love (and maybe a few extra treats!). Whether your dog needs a fun adventure or a calm companion, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, cared for, and wagging their tail every time they see me coming. I have recently left my full time office job to try and take on dog walking as my full time career - this means I am fully flexible to work around you and your pups needs. Whether it’s a quick walk during the work day, or a weekend boarding, I can adapt my schedule around you. I have a large garden, which is unfenced however would always be supervised, whilst also living a 5 minute walk from a dog friendly beach, so a lot of beach walks and sea swims are available! I have my own dog, Jonas, to keep your furry friends company at home or on walks, who is also crate trained. I have basic knowledge of dog first aid, and I am currently in the process of getting my K9 first aid certificate to make sure your pup is in safe hands whatever happens.
About: I grew up in Newcastle with a border terrier called Dandy, who I miss dearly. Since then, I have had cats: Charlie, a ginger tom, Sherlock, a chocolate point Burmese, and Gizmo, a blue Burmese. I now have Teddy, another chocolate-point Burmese, and Nala, a Bengal- cross. I was actively involved with dog walking and looking after Clyde, a friend’s very warm, cuddly and friendly Labrador. I have since looked after a Shih Tzu called Bertie, and love is a little knowing face. Jello is such a sweet dog, whom I've looked after many times, and he loves his cuddles. I am a counsellor in private practice and also work at a secondary school. I am available during the week and at weekends. Some weeks during school holidays, I can stay in your home as I work remotely. During term time, I can travel to work and look after your pet if very local. Caring for pets in your home will be down to following your daily routine, which your pets are used to. It is important to meet them first so that your pet can get used to me. I will let your pet come to me first, as it is important to give them space so they feel safe.
About: I Currently have two Cats that I helped birth Tash and Gizmo. They are my housemates. I love them to bits ! I've had cats my entire life and the most I owned was 9 when I lived on a farm ! I'm an emergency first aider, calm in a crisis and almost lost Tash last year when she was bitten by a rat. She needed surgery and it was a 3 month recovery where I didn't leave her side. I organised a fundraiser to help pay the huge vets bill after vets suggested we put her down. She's currently snuggled on my lap and I'm so glad we both fought for her to still be here ! I will treat your cats like they are my own and 99% of cats warm to me almost instantly. I've owned birds, rabbits, reptiles, rats, dogs, pygmy goats, sheep and kune kune pigs.. all as pets ! We've pet sat in the USA, Spain and even in the Peruvian jungle and have great references. Self employed and love playing and bonding with all animals. We enjoy looking after people's pets all over the world. Its purrfect for us. We treat your pets like members of our own family. We like to find out each individuals likes, needs and requirements as every pet is different

This is the second time I've booked Tasha to drop in on my cats and I couldn't be happier. She really does go above and beyond to look after your animals. My cats are quite nervous but absolutely love her and always come out to investigate when she comes to visit!
Absolutely fantastic sitter who goes above and beyond for cats! I was really nervous about leaving Ralph alone for the first time but was reassured that he was great hands until our return and got lots of updates from Kirsty every visit. So grateful to Kirsty for looking after Ralph for us

There are 230 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Torbay. About 90% of Torbay sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. 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.
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.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
