“I would recommend Kate to anyone! One of our cats is super shy, but you would not have thought that at all seen as he was besties with Kate from day one. She took such great care of our two and it meant I felt really relaxed to enjoy my holiday. Wouldn’t hesitate to book Kate again, thank you! ”
“In order to meet us and our cat before starting, Jackie paid us a first visit. She is extremely friendly and reliable and our cat has truly been spoilt. Jackie has looked after our pet as if she was her own and has sent us a daily update as well as great photos. I recommend Jackie’s services if you need a friendly pet sitter. Catherine”
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’ve taken care of pets every since I was 8, my neighbours and family used to rely on me to look after their dogs I’M currently part-time working during weekends so I Can easily take your dogs for a walk while you are in the office or on holidays away from TWells. From 10am - 6pm weekdays are the best for me I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. At the owner’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided.
“Emma is simply fabulous. She looked after Clive and Oscar, my cats, for 5 days giving me daily updates and answering my texts promptly. I came home to a spotless home and two relaxed kitties.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, especially larger dogs, but I’m just as fond of smaller furry friends too. Until recently, I had two Staffordshire Bull Terriers who sadly passed away due to old age and cancer. I also have a 5 year old hermann tortoise who loves to roam. Caring for my own pets has given me plenty of experience, patience, and a genuine love for animals. Although I miss having them around, it’s also why I’d love the opportunity to care for other people’s pets, giving them the same attention, affection, and care that I gave my own. I currently work full time so to unwind I would love the opportunity to be able to pet other peoples animals and walk them and get a bit closer to nature. I would be free early mornings, evenings and weekends I enjoy meeting new animals and people. Let me meet your doggy and let them decide for themselves if they trust Me. I am DBS checked. I’m happy to clean up after your pets too.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and have looked after many different breeds of dogs, a including my own Golden Retriever who I had for 14 years. I work freelance so will have lots of time for your pet. I love dog walks and am happy to sit dogs which need multiple walks a day. When sitting in other people’s houses I am extremely considerate and respectful of other people’s homes and neighbours. I will regularly be with/checking on pets and am happy to send pet updates to owners.
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.
“Christie is an absolute star. Responded to my very last minute request to drop in and walk my rather boisterous labrador and did a great job with him. We will definitely be booking with Christie again. Highly recommended”
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: Having grown up with three cats—including an adopted rescue who required specialized care—I know firsthand how to build trust with sensitive pets and manage specific health or behavioral needs. I am also highly adaptable to multi-pet households, as I am often in a household with both a dog and a cat. Whether I am providing the structured patience and consistency needed for training young pets or the gentle, attentive pacing essential for senior care, I tailor my approach so your furry family members feel safe, secure, and loved while you are away. Having recently graduated from university, my schedule is completely open and highly flexible. This means pet care isn't just something I squeeze into a busy day—it is my primary focus. Whether your pets need midday walks, constant supervision and training consistency for a young pup, or frequent check-ins and relaxed pacing for a senior pet, I have the unrestricted time to match their exact routine. I exclusively provide care in your home, as I believe pets are most relaxed and confident in their own familiar environment. When visiting or staying at your house, my goal is to seamlessly replicate your pet’s daily routine while treating your home with the utmost respect.
About: I have experience caring for dogs for family and friends, including feeding, walking, and supervising my sister’s dog and my mum’s friend’s dogs. I'm available in the weekdays. I play football on Saturday and Sunday. Sunday's football is in the morning but I'm free the rest of the day, afternoon onwards. Saturday's I'm free if I have no game or there is a season break. I give pets plenty of attention, take them on long walks, and always make sure they have fresh water, comfortable and are well cared for.

Joyce is an amazing cat sitter. She is incredibly kind, reliable, and got along with my cat so well. She sent me very thorough updates and lots of lovely photos every day, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would happily recommend her to everyone. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
This was our first time using Weslie as a cat sitter, I could not recommend her enough! She really went above and beyond to take care of our two cats and the updates and photos that she sent to us were so detailed, we will definitely be using her again in future!!
Rupert was absolutely brilliant looking after Mushroom while we were away. He sent us lovely updates and photos every day, often showing little moments from their time together, which was so reassuring and genuinely lovely to see. Mushroom clearly adored all the attention, affection and care Rupert gave her, and it was obvious that he really took the time to get to know her and spend proper time with her rather than simply popping in to feed her. We came home to a very happy, relaxed cat, and we felt completely confident that she’d been in wonderful hands while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask Rupert to look after Mushroom again. Thank you so much! 🐾
In order to meet us and our cat before starting, Jackie paid us a first visit. She is extremely friendly and reliable and our cat has truly been spoilt. Jackie has looked after our pet as if she was her own and has sent us a daily update as well as great photos. I recommend Jackie’s services if you need a friendly pet sitter. Catherine
Abby is an amazing cat sitter! Greatly reliable, extremely intelligent and very caring. She’s someone you can really trust to be there for your kitty. She went an extra mile with care and cleaning when we had an incident with robot vacuum and cat’s 💩 I would definitely recommend her to everyone and looking forward for her to look after Bella again in future!
Chelsea was incredible! Really couldn’t have asked for more. She looked after our cat so well, gave great updates including photos. Our cat was unwell and needed antibiotics which Chelsea was happy to give without any concerns and left us feeling so reassured. Thank you Chelsea, would definitely book again and recommend!

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.

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.
