Lia is an absolutely amazing lady and my baby girls adored her and were so very well looked after making our time away at our Sons wedding even more special as we did not have to worry at all. Lia also sent us updates and pics which was lovely. I can’t thank you enough and will definitely be booking you again

As always, Kaye has taken great care of our elderly Labrador, Cally, while we have been away. Kaye is a very kind and gentle carer for Cally, who clearly loves her and is always happy to see her and have her ‘take charge’ (as are we). Kaye looks after our home and our pet extremely well, enabling us to relax and feel reassured while we are away. We look forward very much to having her back to look after Cally next month.

What a wonderful find Francesca is. From the very start I felt confident that our dog would be safe and cared for. Francesca arranged a meet and greet, was communicative and reliable. Checked in a couple of days before to say all set. On the day of the house sitting, Francesca was communicative, reliable, sent just the right amount of pupdates, and was so respectful of our home. A real pleasure to meet Francesca. And it means we can arrange future evenings out to places which don’t allow dogs (!) with confidence. Thank you so much, Francesca

Hannah was a brilliant sitter for our dog Jessie, whilst we attended a family weekend. We especially enjoyed the photo and video updates during the weekend. Would 100% reccomend Hannah for dog sitting :)

About: Hi, I’m Emma! 🐾 I’m an experienced dog owner with two friendly rescue dogs and a real passion for providing safe, enriching and loving care. Whether your dog joins us for a walk, daycare or an overnight stay, they’ll receive the same care, attention and affection as my own dogs. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by animals and was fortunate enough to help train guide dog puppies, which developed my understanding of patience, positive reinforcement and dog behaviour. I now have two amazing rescue dogs who are both neutered, friendly and love meeting other dogs. We enjoy lots of walks and adventures, so your dog will have plenty of exercise and enrichment. I also believe mental stimulation is just as important, and love teaching tricks, reinforcing commands and encouraging good manners through positive training. Your dog may even come home having learnt a new skill! 🐶 My aim is to make every owner feel completely at ease while they’re away. I provide regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy and enjoying their own little holiday too. ❤️ 🐾 Before booking To help me provide safe and appropriate care, please confirm: • The date of your dog’s most recent vaccinations • The date of their most recent flea treatment • The date of their most recent worming treatment I’m always happy to discuss any individual needs, routines, dietary requirements or medication your dog may have. 📅 Booking enquiries I’m currently receiving several enquiries for upcoming dates. To keep things fair, dates are confirmed on a first-come, first-confirmed basis and cannot be held indefinitely. If you’d like to secure your dates, please get in touch and I’ll be very happy to discuss your booking and arrange a meet-and-greet. 🐾 I work a flexible schedule, which means I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, regular walks and enrichment throughout the day. I like to keep the dogs’ days varied and relaxed, with daily mental stimulation activities such as enrichment feeding and simple training. Most days, the door is open for the dogs to enjoy the garden throughout the day, giving them the freedom to go outside, explore or simply relax in the fresh air. After their morning walk and some enrichment, my own dogs are usually very happy to spend much of the day snoozing — and I’m perfectly happy to let them enjoy a peaceful nap! 🐶💤 I aim to create a home-from-home environment where dogs can follow a comfortable routine, with a balance of exercise, play, enrichment, companionship and plenty of downtime. 🚗 Walks & pick-ups For walks and pick-ups, I have an estate car fitted with a dog guard, providing a secure and practical way to transport dogs. I also come prepared with my own dog-walking kit, including poo bags, treats and toys. I carry a 10m long line for dogs who may need a little extra freedom while still having a secure connection, particularly those who are still working on their recall.

About: Animal lover, dog mum and professional treat giver! I’ve always had a huge soft spot for animals and love getting to know every pet’s individual personality, whether they’re a cuddly sofa potato, an energetic adventurer or a little bit of a diva. 😂 I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, with plenty of cuddles, playtime, attention and, of course, the occasional well earned treat! 🦴 I’m reliable, caring and happy to keep you updated with photos and little adventures while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is having a lovely time too. 🐾❤️ I’ve been around dogs since I was born, varying from different sizes, from German Shepards to Jack Russels. I love animals with my entire heart. My husband has also had the same upbringing, mostly training and having Great Dane’s. We now have our own little 2 year old Jack Russell dog who we love so much. If your dog stays with us, they’ll have the most fun playing in our big garden and cuddling on the sofa. We are very knowledgeable with what dogs need, so let us know any requirements and we’ll be happy to implement them. I work from home so I’ll be with your baby all day. I work full time from home, I wake up early for walkies (with lots of treats) then home for food and cuddles, I’m around all day for play time and the garden is always accessible for them. Dogs are apart of the family so If owners are okay with it, they’re allowed on all the furniture and on the bed, if they’re crate trained, we’re happy for them to sleep there I have a fenced, secure garden with a super friendly and sweet lively Jack Russell. The dogs will never be left alone and walks are always in safe secure areas.

We are so happy to have had Jessica looking after Teddy Tewkesbury for four days. Jessica has a brilliant personality and was made most welcome by us and Tewksbury. She really loved looking after Teddy and was sorry she could not have stayed with him longer. She kept us fully updated about Teddy while she was with him, totally brilliant service from her. We will definitely be booking Jessica again in the future. Thank you very much Jess, you are a star and Teddy loves you to bits.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment she came, I felt completely at ease. When I came back, my dog was not only happy and healthy, but she had also learned some adorable new tricks! It’s clear how much love and attention she got every day. The communication was excellent, and I could tell she was well taken care of the whole time. I highly recommend this pet sitter to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving person for their furry family member. Thank you so much I’ll definitely book her again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

About: I am an experienced pet carer with years of pet care under my belt. Grew up with cats and dogs, currently have two kitties and a couple of garden hedgehogs. I work as a freelancer on my own schedule so I have a lot of flexibility. I am often available on short notice. My cats are very communicative and their demands are always met! My garden is fenced and my home is pet safe. My girls have many comfy nap spots. Ruby likes a lot of cuddles, Delilah likes them sometimes. She likes being groomed but is a bit of a nibbler!!

Jodie was quite simply amazing. Daily updates and photos. She looked after our furry tribe with all the same care and love as if they were her own. I am already booking her again and can’t recommend her enough. It is the biggest weight lifted knowing your pets are in safe trusted hands, and Jodie’s certainly are. Our home was also well looked after too.

We had a fantastic experience with Jo and Luke wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. They were incredibly responsive and communicative throughout, sending regular photos and updates which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. They were also happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand, which made both us and Blue feel much more comfortable. Blue is currently recovering from an injury, so her care is more involved than usual. They took the time to understand her routine, listened carefully to all of our instructions, and showed great patience and care in looking after her needs. It was clear they genuinely wanted to make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. We came home to a clean and tidy house, and most importantly, Blue was happy, relaxed and content. We would happily book with them again.

About: Although in relatively new to Rover, I have hands on experience caring for and walking a young, energetic Golden Retriever. I’m comfortable handling larger breeds and enjoy taking dogs on enriching walks suited to their individual needs. I’m passionate about dog behaviour and training and I enjoy learning more about how dogs communicate and what makes them feel happy, safe and confident. I’m patient, reliable and understand how important trust is when leaving your dog in someone else’s care. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated. I’m available mainly on weekends and enjoy spending time outdoors making them a great opportunity for longer walks and one on one care. Weekdays I’m available mainly after 5pm depending on my schedule. I currently provide pet care in your home where your dog can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings and routine. I’ll take them time to understand your dog’s individual needs including feeding times, play, walks, rest and any other instructions you’d like me to follow. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind

Hollie did a great job looking after our sometimes anxious collie Ted for us in our home while we were away. Ted adored her and we have come back to a very happy dog and a clean, tidy home. Hollie gave us regular updates and photos, was very responsive to messages and has handled Ted’s needs well. Hollie seems lovely and I would definitely book her again! Thank you Hollie for looking after Ted so well for us - you’re his new favourite auntie!

About: I’ve been looking after my sisters cockapoo and my friends cockapoo and English bull terrier - either dropping in to feed and let them out or overnight stays when they’ve been away. I love looking after dogs and enjoy going on walks no matter how long. My prices outside of rover are: £35 a day, £40 a night and £14 a walk. So happy to sort payments outside of rover so it’s not as expensive. I am currently working part time so will have a lot of time to play and walk on my days off and even walk dogs before and after my shifts 🙂 I will ensure your pet is fed, walked and entertained as per instructions. Will only take on 1 pet at a time for overnight stays so they can have my full attention and love unless they are from the same household then I am happy with more than 1

We have two rescue collies who can be a handful at times. Danielle is the only person we trust to look after them when family members aren’t available to assist. She is professional, kind and great with them both. She provides us with updates and M&M love her… so, it makes us feel so much more comfortable leaving them knowing they are in her hands. We cannot recommend her enough☺️

FAQs for House Sitting – Vale of White Horse

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Vale of White Horse on Rover is £46 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,683 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vale of White Horse. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Vale of White Horse 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 Vale of White Horse 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. 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.

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.
