“Mel is great! She's friendly and really good with eevee. She keeps me up to date through rover to an amazingly high standard. I'm so glad I found her through rover and will keep booking with her for the foreseeable future. Thanks Mel x”


“Ieva has been great. I needed to arrange a dog sitter to stay with my old dog at quite short notice. Ieva arranged to come round for a meet and greet (fighting her way through roadworks and over hot tarmac to make it) and was lovely with Millie. She has also done some drop in visits which Millie seems very relaxed after. I think Millie is going to enjoy her week with Ieva 😁”


“Excellent experience – this was my first time using a dog walker and I couldn’t be happier. Amazing communication throughout, and she clearly really cared about my dog. I was kept fully informed with regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind. A lovely lady – I’ll definitely be using her again!"”


About: I grew up with a large family that loved animals and was always surrounded by them. I asked for a mouse for my 10th birthday, and got a bonus of ten more when we found out she was pregnant! At the same time, my brother’s hamster was also pregnant and had a litter of eleven! We hand-built large cages for both litters and suddenly we’re surrounded by more than twenty adorable rodents! If you count the five goldfish we also owned, we were close to thirty pets at once. The lifespan is unfortunately short for most of these little guys, and as the years went on we got three birds, two dogs, and one rat. In my twenties when I lived on my own, I got myself a cat. He was the greatest boy I ever could have hoped for, but he had been born with an underlying heart condition and passed away at only seven. Since then, I have moved to the UK from America and married my animal loving husband (Fin). He had a dog, cat, and rabbits when I first moved, but they have all passed away in the last couple of years. His dog was 13 and died most recently in February of bone cancer, but he was the goodest boy. We are now living without any pets at the moment, and miss them so much, but know we need to pick the right time to start again with our own, so in the meantime, we’re really hoping to borrow yours! My husband and I both adore all animals, and are so looking forward to spending quality time with your own! My husband and I both work from home, so our hours are very flexible! It is very likely that we can make anything you need from us work. For all services, we have complete respect for our pet owners personal requests regarding their pets. If your little guy is on a strict diet, we will not sneak him treats behind your back. If they’re not, then they’ll probably be getting spoiled! If they eat dinner and go for walks at a specific time, we’ll set alarms to keep to that agenda. If they don’t like walking on pavement, we have a lovely grass field area across the street and multiple parks near us. My husband (Fin) and I both work from home, so we have all the time in the world to spend with your pets and give them all of the attention they deserve! We have a fenced in garden that’s quite long and a good width for running around dogs, and we have a gorgeous field/hill a stone’s throw away from us that we go to all the time and people love taking their dogs too. There is also an award-winning dog park down the road! As far as I door care, we start by respecting your own personal boundaries and wishes, but we love cuddles, playing, tricks, walks, pets, treats, and everything in between!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, taken care of and trained many myself. In recent years. My darling dog teg had epilepsy so it’s given me good experience handling dogs medication and extra help. I am a serious dog lover, have never been without a family dog until I had my daughter who’s 3. She has followed in my footsteps of loving our fur babies. I live in a ground floor flat in a smoke free home close to wonderful parks. Really enjoy going for long walks. Ground floor flat, with secure access, close to boating lake and other local parks. I’m easy going and treat fur babies like family. So cwtches on the sofa are perfectly acceptable to me 😊


About: I have worked at a dog rescue for 2 years, working with reactive dogs, nervous dogs and dogs with medical needs. I have had experience with puppies, older dogs and a variety of dog breeds small and large. I have experience dog sitting in houses and check ins. I am available Monday to Friday time dependant around my work schedule, usually available 9-5. I am available for house sitting and stay overs at individual request. I will be able to care for a pet in your home, however I have a dog so will not be able to extend this service to have a dog in my home. I will walk, feed and offer company to your dog, I am able to brush your dog if they are ok with this. I will always do what is best for your pet.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life - from tiny hamsters to large dogs. I’m experienced with rescue pets, senior care, and gentle puppy training. I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed. My calm, patient nature helps animals feel at ease quickly. Plus, I’m always happy to provide photo updates and follow any special routines or needs. I recently left my full-time job and now work part-time online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This means I’m available throughout the day and week to provide consistent, attentive care for pets. Whether it’s a midday walk, a morning visit, or an afternoon cuddle session, I can easily fit pet care around my online work. Your pet will never be left alone for long - and I’m happy to adjust to their routine and needs I’m happy to come and walk/feed your pet several times a day, but I won’t be able to stay overnight at your place because my cat can’t sleep without me. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home during the day or visiting them in their own home, I always prioritise their comfort, safety, and emotional well-being. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm and clean environment. I have a small, secure back garden with a high fence - perfect for safe outdoor play. If needed, I also have enough space indoors to keep cats and dogs separated to reduce stress and ensure everyone feels relaxed. I currently live with a friendly rescue cat, so I only accept vaccinated pets for health and safety reasons. When visiting pets in their home, I follow their usual routines closely - feeding, walking, playtime, litter care, or medication. I always take time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious animals, and send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Licensed, registered and insured✅ Our baby is a long-haired miniature dachshund girl called Roo. Me and James have experience taking care of our girl who is now 4years old. James has also always had family dogs and we have experience over the last few years running our own doggy care & boarding. We love spending time with them all and love their individual characters. 🥰 I'm currently working part time so have lots of days off in the week and/or over weekends, James works full time from home and so there will always be someone to take care and play with with the dogs and give them all the attention they need. We have a fenced garden, and also lots of great places to walk near by. As long as dogs are clean and well trained they can use our home like they would their own home, cwtch up on the sofa and go roaming around and have a play. We will always ask you what regular routines are in place so we can keep to as close as what they are used to as possible.

About: I have always taken care of various pets, mostly friends and families. I've had cats and dogs in my family, both immediate and extended, and I've always enjoyed spending time with them, walking them and playing with them. I would definitely like to take on new challenges also, be it bathing or training and handling difficult pets. I'm currently studying part time so not every day is always free but i'm usually free weekdays and weekends morning, afternoon and evening. Sadly I do not drive so any pet would need to be fairly local. I live in a cosy second story flat near large fields so a dog would be amply stimulated and comfortable in my home. I would follow whatever guidelines that the pet owner would have in their home, so long as it is good for the pet.

Tanya R.
“Tanya is great with my pets. I have an Irish Setter that she often walks to different nearby parks. When she visits the house, my dog almost stalks her because he loves when she shows up. I'm pretty sure Tanya has taken several bruises to the legs from my Irish Setter batting at her legs to get more attention from her if she's speaking with someone else (he gets jealous!). My family also has a cat that she gives love and attention to whenever she sees him, so I know she's not just a dog person, but an animal person. We've also had Tanya move in for ten days once while we were all on vacation to watch the house and take care of our pets while we were away, and she did both to the top extent. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter or walker!”

“Daniel is a very honest and reliable man,. He loves animals and they love him. When on a 6 week holiday to Australia, I had every confidence in him minding my elderly cat, which he did superbly. He has also walked and cared for a shitzu for an elderly couple who were unable to do so.”

“Cherry has dog sits for my two chihuahuas, they have a lovely time and are tired out by the time I come home. Cherry also dog walks for me three times a week, I just leave the key for her now and she gets on with it while I'm at work. One of my dogs barks a lot at other dogs on walks so it's a relief to have someone who knows what to do when they act up a little. Thank you :)”

She’s not only incredibly reliable and professional, but she also has a natural connection with animals that instantly puts both pets and owners at ease. Emily goes above and beyond to make sure dogs feel safe, loved, and entertained while in her care. Whether it’s going for long walks, sticking to feeding routines, or giving belly rubs and snuggles, she handles it all with kindness and genuine affection. Every time she watches my dog, I feel totally at peace knowing she’s in such caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who treats your furry family member like one of her own, Emily is truly the best choice!”


Katie M.
“Katie has walked my dogs for me on numerous occasions and my dogs have felt very happy and settled with her. She takes time to get to know the dogs and earn their trust and is very gentle and kind with them. I am very happy to have such a kind and reliable dog walker and would highly recommend her.”
