“Christie looked after our cats Cassie and Willow for 4 nights and I knew from the start they'd be in great hands- Christie was very friendly and clearly a cat lover! She sent daily written updates along with photos and videos which we really appreciated while being away. Our flat was immaculate upon return, with Cassie and Willow very relaxed and content! Thank you very much Christie.”
“It was our first time booking Nikki, and also our first time having someone look after Fiadh in our flat. Add in that Fiadh had just had her spay and was still in recovery. Nikki was fabulous from point of meet and greet to her calm and reassuring presence on the night. Fiadh settled quickly with Nikki and as a result we were able to go out for the night feeling calm. We highly recommend Nikki and look forward to seeing her again.”
“Liam was very understanding with our nervous dog. He was very easy to book last minute. He was very accommodating and her clearly made our dogs feel at ease as they were cuddling with him on the sofa. We would highly recommend.”
About: I’ve cared for animals for many years through owning pets myself and regularly helping friends with pet sitting and walking their dogs. I’m confident with walks, routines and making sure dogs feel comfortable and happy. I’m reliable, caring and enjoy giving dogs the exercise, attention and company they need while you’re busy or away. I’m currently between jobs, so I have a very flexible schedule and can offer walks throughout the day during weekdays and weekends. This means I’m available for regular walks, last-minute bookings, and different routine times to suit your dog’s needs. I’m happy to follow your usual routine, walking preferences and any instructions carefully. I’ll always make sure dogs are secure on walks, well cared for, and given plenty of attention.
About: I take care of pets for most of my neighbors and friends. I am very careful and attentive while sitting pets and give them all the affection and love. I even adopted Terry (my lovely Indian Spitz), she is the apple of my eye. I am mostly available for full time on weekdays and can accept part time as well but for weekends I am up for full time care. I can offer sitting services at pet owner's home and toiket breaks can be managed between 0-2 hrs throughout the duration along with 2-3 walkies daily.
About: I’ve always had dogs since I was young and would just love to welcome yours into our home! I am a huge animal lover and would treat your dog with so much love and care. My dream is to own my own animal sanctuary one day! We have a medium sized garden which is fenced and we generally spend most our time out there, so that means lots of roaming for your pooch🫶🏼 I also have a campervan and if I’m not at home, I can also be found exploring the UK. You’re dog is always welcome to join me 🤭 I work for an outdoor organisation and live with my partner George who is also a dog lover (and seen in some of my photos), we are very flexible and have many great walks near us! I can either take the dog/s to work or they can be left at home with George as he is currently studying - whatever is easiest on the day really! I have a fenced garden and lots of space in the house for your dog to roam, we’re an active couple & enjoy going on lots of adventures so if your dog is up for this, we’d love to explore with them. We do not currently have any dogs ourselves so would love to look after yours before we commit to having our own in the future. We’re both very patient and loving with animals so will give your pet the love it deserves.
“Matt and his daughter kindly stepped in to look after Loki for us at the last minute after another sitter cancelled. Loki adores him and we came home to a very happy dog. Thank you again!”
About: I’ve owned several dogs and cats for more than 30 years. I’ve had moggies, Maine Coons, Beagles and Cyprus Rescues. I’m also a trained dog groomer. I have my own dog and enjoy walks. I can walk at any time of the day. I can also sit in your own home for half days or pop in when needed. I treat dogs and cats like family which mine are. I give lots of cuddles but always let them approach me as they are comfortable. I can walk them, pop them in the garden and of course feed them. I provide company and companionship.
“Zoe is an excellent dog sitter and I would highly recommend her. Not only is she very diligent and respectful of our dog Oscar and his needs, she went above and beyond by doing lots of dog walks before our first sit so that Oscar (who can take a while to warm up to new people) was happy and confident with her. She is very patient and attentive and gentle with Oscar which he responds really well to. She is very intuitive and I completely trust her with him.”
“First time I’ve used rover and Leiah was absolutely amazing kept me updated with how my dog was getting on plenty of picture updates too. Would 100% recommend using her, absolutely lovely lady. Amazing 10 out of 10”
“This was my first time leaving Ike with with anyone outside of my family and friends, so obviously I was a bit nervous when I started the process. However, I felt instantly comfortable on meeting Rebecca. She was respectful but relaxed when entering my home and instantly bonded with Ike, which was most important to me. Rebecca sent me photos of Ike during my travels and it was obvious that he was happy and relaxed. On returning home, the house was as I left it and whilst Ike was very pleased to see me, he had clearly been well cared for by Rebecca while I was away. I can definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for someone to house sit their dog. She's amazing.”
About: I have experience looking after family and friends dogs with walking and feeding while they are away. I am a massive animal lover and will ensure they are well looked after at all times. I recently volunteered at a dog sanctuary in Sri Lanka, taking care of disabled dogs waiting to be adopted. I love cats and have had them my whole life. I currently work 6 hour days so I have time in the mornings for walks before 11am and after 6pm. Weekdays work best for me but with notice I may be able to take care of them weekends too. I have three cats, one of which has three legs after an accident. Ensuring that they all get lots of love makes for a great environment. I change and clean their litter tray regularly, make sure they are always fed and well.
About: Hi! I’m Sarah, a French pet sitter with over 15 years of experience caring for animals. I’ve grown up with pets all my life, including dogs, cats, and rabbits. I’m reliable, caring, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I am also a volunteer at the Tunbridge Wells Wildlife Hospital, helping care for injured and rescued wild animals. I’ll be happy to look after your beloved companions, give them plenty of love and attention, and even teach them some French! ❤️ I have a flexible schedule and can easily adapt to your pet’s needs and routine.

This means your pet can enjoy plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply a reassuring presence, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. I always respect each pet’s routine and personality. I take the time to build trust, especially with shy or anxious animals, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind

Thank you so much Jacquie . We came home to find Autumn very happy and not Distressed at all, She was happy and excited to see us. You took such good care of Autumn. The photos you took and shared are great! I would not hesitate to recommend you to other dog owners. Once again thank you & I am looking forward To booking you for a few hours on the 15th.
Liam has taken great care of our two dogs. One of them is an older dog that requires more care and medication, and Liam was great with him! He sent tons of updates and pictures, and the dogs were happy and spoilt. The house was clean and super organised when we came back. I would definitely recommend!
Alec is super professional in every way! He came to meet us and our two spaniels weeks before we left on holiday to introduce himself and get to know us and our dogs. He kept us updated while we were away with the most beautiful photographs of our beloved boys, went the extra mile by taking special care of our home and garden, and gave us complete peace of mind so we could enjoy our time away. He left our house neat, clean and tidy and we cannot recommend him strongly enough!
Amy is a wonderful dog sitter! She instantly bonded with our puppy Cherry and sent us some adorable doggy updates whilst we were at a family wedding. Amy is a lovely and kind person who we would 100% recommend to anyone, her dog Brody is absolutely gorgeous too and a big golden softie! Thank you again Amy 💜
We love it when Nicola comes to watch Buzz and Samson! She is so kind, gentle and patient with our "problem" dog, Buzz, and Samson loves playing with her. Nicola is a wonderful sitter and really understands how to manage animals. She is very communicative and we received plenty of updates from he. I have a great deal of confidence in Nicola's care of our dogs and I'll use her again & again when she's available!
Tom was great at looking after our mastiff Diego, he was very friendly, communicated really well with us and was brilliant with Diego, he handled him really well. I would definitely recommend him and I will be booking him again soon, thank you so much Tom.
India did a wonderful job looking after my little darlings for 2 nights. She followed all my instructions, was very communicative throughout, putting my mind at ease being away from my pets and was respectful of my home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend India to anyone, she's a gentle person and my pets feel at home with her which is the most important thing when going away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tunbridge Wells on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Tunbridge Wells walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 .
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 Tunbridge Wells 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. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
