“This is the second time we have used Susana for our pug Ralph. Susana always updates us with pictures and videos of Ralph whilst we are away which is really lovely. He is very well cared for and treated like a member of the family! We will hopefully be using Susana again next year as we know Ralph is safe and well cared for.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I'm a caring, patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets, whether that's playing with them, giving them attention, or helping them stick to their usual routine. I work part time in a local school, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and overnight stays. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I aim to provide the utmost level of care and affection. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you'll always know your pet is happy and having a great time. Throughout the day, I make time for play, cuddles, training, and keeping pets engaged and happy. I currently work part-time in a local school so have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve and ensure they feel relaxed, loved, and well looked after. A typical day with me includes plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I love being outdoors and am a confident walker, so your dog can enjoy long, enriching walks and lots of opportunities to explore. If we come back muddy after an adventure, there's no need to worry - I’ll make sure your dog gets cleaned up before settling back in. I also have a small enclosed garden to keep your dog safe if they are staying with me and I'll make sure to keep you updated with messages and photos.
“Rhiannon was amazing, we booked for a weekend stay for our 15 year old dog and he absolutely loved it. I received constant updated with photos. I needed an emergency over night sit as our car broke down and Rhiannon was brill and it wasn't an issue. We shall definitely be visiting again :) 10 stars if I could!”
About: I have been responsible for my family Labrador Sonny for the last 12 years. My absolute heart and soul! I walk dogs locally in my spare time, pairing my love for the outdoors and my passion for dogs. I also have experience dog sitting in exchange for accomodation abroad which I absolutely love doing! Please feel free to contact me about anything you might need, my schedule is very flexible and I’m always happy to help out in anyway I can:) thank you for considering me. I work a zero hour hospitality job, so usually my work schedule can tailor to your needs. A usual day looks like a healthy breakfast, a big long walk usually between a hour-two hours, then I go to work usually not more than a 5 hour shift, I like cosy evenings at home or strolling on the beach. I genuinely have such a good routine for a dog to slot right in I believe. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after in either my home or the owner’s home. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific care instructions. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship to keep them happy and relaxed. I also maintain a clean environment, monitor their health and behavior, and keep owners updated with messages or photos for peace of mind. I have a fenced garden and live right on the beach for plenty of outdoor time. Also a large park close by!
About: I enjoy being outdoors and regularly explore the beautiful beaches of Swansea - perfect for keeping your dog happy, active, and engaged. I’d love to meet your dog and give them the best possible time while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages - from cheeky, energetic puppies to senior dogs who need regular medical care and a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, having looked after everything from miniature schnauzers and chihuahuas to retrievers and german shepherds. I live alone with my own dog, Serpico - a friendly 3 year old lurcher cross, who loves playing and socialising with other dogs - so your doggo will always have great company. We follow a consistent routine with morning and evening walks, including time for off-leash runs, but I’m always happy to adapt to suit your dog’s individual needs. As a dog owner myself, I completely understand how it feels to leave your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I’ll always provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel reassured and relaxed while you’re away. I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays and will only offer boarding on these days as well as weekends. Which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your doggo. I usually go for a morning walk with my doggo at either the beach or park, providing space for a good run around. Followed up with a chilled evening walk to wind down. We’re happy to change up our schedule to meet your dog’s needs. I have a fenced garden and a dog of my own, who will act as a sociable playmate. I would love to meet up with you and your dog before boarding to make sure a connection is made with your doggo and that they feel comfortable staying at our home.
About: This is for myself and my Wife Beth. We’ve been around dogs for as long as we can remember, having grown up with dogs in our families from a young age. For the past 6 years, we’ve had a dog of our own and understand the love, care, attention, and routine that dogs need to be happy and comfortable. Over the years, we’ve also regularly cared for dogs belonging to family and friends while they were away, giving us experience with different breeds, personalities, and needs. We’ve always enjoyed looking after dogs and have been encouraged by friends and family to share our experience with others through Rover. We’re now excited to take the leap and offer a safe, caring, and loving environment for your dog. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, we’ll treat your dog as if they were our own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. We understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and we’ll do everything we can to make both you and your dog feel comfortable and reassured.

Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We live in a spacious four-bedroom home with plenty of room for dogs to relax, play, and feel at home. Our property benefits from a gated driveway at the front and a fully fenced and secure garden at the rear, providing a safe outdoor space for supervised play and exercise. We maintain a clean, dog-friendly environment and always ensure dogs are secure and well cared for during their stay. We understand that every dog is different, so we’ll take the time to learn about their routine, preferences, and any specific needs to help them feel comfortable and settled while they’re with us.
“We left our dog Leia with Sophie for the weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This was the first time we’ve left Leia with anyone other than family and she made us feel at ease. We received regular updates and videos, which really made a difference and reassured us while we were away. Leia came home happy and clearly very well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog boarder. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Leia!😊”
“Gayathri looked after my dog Ada for a full day (7am–7pm) at quite short notice. She was really accommodating with the timing and I got thoughtful updates during the day, which was very reassuring. When I picked Ada up, I could tell from her relaxed behaviour with both Gayathri and me that she had been well cared for.”
“We contacted Hannah through this app and was amazed at the level of professionalism. First spoke to her over the phone to give her an insight of what our cat was like. After agreeing the dates we wanted to book with her, we then drop our little Leo off and had Hannah look after him over the weekend. Our cat can be a pain at times especially at night and bless Hannah she had the patience to deal with his meowing all night. When we did go to pick Leo up, he seemed just as himself and felt at home. We were constantly updated and received pictures whilst we were away which was really reassuring. We’d deffo book with her again as we do go away quite often! 100% recommend! Thank you Hannah!”
“Flo had a wonderful time with Evie and was really well looked after. She had lots of walks and we feel confident about Evie’s ability to take great care of our mini Dachshund 😀”
About: I’ve had dogs ranging from miniature dachshunds to labradors since I was a baby and in the past year I have been looking after many dogs with my housemate through rover so I am very familiar with the service. I have experience in training puppies as well as caring for medicated older dogs. I have my own car and so love to take the dogs for nice long walks and to beaches too. I am a university student but I have currently finished for the summer so I have lots of free time to show your pets a lot of love. I already go on a lot of walks and beach days and so would love to include dogs to this. I do have a housemate who is also a rover approved sitter and so no dog is ever left alone. I have a fenced garden so lots of freedom in toilet breaks etc. I am also more than happy to have dogs on furniture and in beds so they can stay comfortable in their routine if that’s how they sleep at home. But I do also have crate training experience in order to keep your dog in their own routine.
“kingsley is so kind - even before i’d booked he was already reassuring me, & my mind was put at ease as soon as fred & i arrived at his home that fred was going to be in safe hands. he took him immediately out for a walk to get to know each other, and by the time i was on the train i already had photos waiting for me! i will definitely happily leave fred with kingsley again - thank you so much!!”
“Amy was amazing looking after my dog Jude who was made to feel immediately at home and was given the love and attention you would give your own pet. She checked on all Judes normal daily requirements and accommodated these perfectly. There was plenty of walks and lots of wonderful picture updates leaving me in no doubt that Jude was quite at home. I wouldn't hesitate in using Amy again.”
About: We’ve grown up with dogs and have been around them most of our lives, so we’re very comfortable handling their day-to-day needs. We also regularly look after friends’ dogs, which has given us experience with a range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. We both work from home every day, so dogs in our care get plenty of attention, supervision, and company throughout the day. We’re used to managing feeding, walks, and general care, and we make sure to stick to each dog’s usual routine to help them stay settled while their owners are away. During the week, we both work from home, with one office day each scheduled on different days, ensuring that there is always one of us at home to care for the dog. We finish work at 3pm, allowing plenty of time for an evening walk and attention. On weekends, we are not working, so the dog would enjoy more dedicated time with us, often including day trips typically to the beach. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing are a top priority. The property features a secure, fully fenced garden with a padlocked gate, providing a safe outdoor space for exercise and play, including a generous area of natural grass. We are also fully licensed by the local council for dog sitting, meaning the home has been inspected and approved to meet required safety standards. For added peace of mind, we do not own any dogs and never mix pets from different households, ensuring your dog receives dedicated care and a calm, controlled environment at all times.
“Sixpence had a fantastic welcome & Joshua was so kind & caring towards her. I didn’t worry at all and I received regular updates & pictures of her plus their Cavapoo Toby was also very welcoming & Sixpence had a fantastic time. I would highly recommend Joshua & the next time I need to stay away I shall be booking her in without a doubt. I can’t thank you enough Joshua for looking after my baby girl … 😃😃😃”

“Rosa was absolutely amazing with my four cats and Guinea pig. We’ve used many sitters before but I can honestly say Rosa is the best. She is so good with the animals and you can tell she truly cares about them. She was brilliant on her communication with us when we were away, sending daily updates and pictures (which we’d asked her to do because we were worried about one cat in particular). I will definitely be using Rosa again when we go away next and would recommend her to anybody looking for a kind, caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Rosa! X”
“This is the second time Julie has come to look after Meg. She is such a sweet lady. Very reliable and fantastic communication. Plenty of photos & reassurance that your pet is being well looked after. I will definitely ask Julie to see Meg again when we are away. Thank you 🙏🏼”
“Danielle looked after our cat Bella with daily visits for feeding and clearing the litter tray. Bella can be cautious and timid with new people but she obviously bonded very quickly with Danielle - who kept us updated with daily photos. We are very pleased with Danielle’s excellent service and would definitely book her again!”
“Cae is an amazing dog /cat sitter. He is reliable, polite, and my dacshund Oscar seems happy to see him each time...! Cae provides day care regularly and Oscar enjoys walks with Cae. Would recommend Cae.”
About: I grew up in a rural area and we always had cats, so caring for them has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've lived with many cats and have always loved being around animals. I understand that every cat is different, some love attention while others prefer their own space, and I'm happy to adapt to their individual personalities. Whether it's feeding, litter box cleaning, play sessions, or simply providing company, I'll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away.
“First time booking with Keira, and she was absolutely amazing!!! Couldn't do enough to making sure my cats were happy. She sent me photos and videos on each visit, with a message to say how they were. Would book with Keira again. Thank you 😊”
“Ariana looked after my cat for 11 days in my own house and exceeded all my expectations. She really treated my cat as if it was her own! Ariana is very experienced, understands the personality of the animal and knows a lot about cat care. I was lucky to have her and will definitely book her again.”
About: I have looked after cats for friends and family for a number of years. All of them have very different personalities and varying levels of tolerance for humans so I take their lead on how much interaction they want. My mum’s cat can be quite aggressive if touched when she doesn’t want to be. However, when sitting on the sofa she will be happy to come and sit on my lap for a snuggle. Last year I looked after my friend’s two cats for a week at her house, while she was on holiday. They are quite anxious cats and were initially quite wary of me but I made time to play with them and by the end of the week they were happy to sit near me and let me stroke them. I made sure to keep my friend regularly updated throughout the week, which she appreciated. She has asked me to look after them again this year, and said it really put her mind at rest to know they were so well looked after while she was away.
“We were most grateful to Kylie as we had to reschedule on the day at short notice due a very ill close relative. We have now managed to go away and return to a very chilled house of fur babies. The cats have now got Kylie under their control and responding to their every whim, which has made myself and hubby giggle somewhat and take away some stresses at a difficult time. Thanks”
“Can't thank Sian enough! having previously had a negative experience she was amazing. Having an older cat she was kind, caring and he obviously felt comfortable and relaxed with her. I had plenty of photos throughout the holiday, I would definitely recommend Sian and book again xx”
“Superb Stayover! Another great visit from Lisa who looked after Timmy for 9 nights whilst we were away in Europe. Timmy is only an absolute chattervox with Us and Lisa which speaks to how comfortable he is with his bestie. Lisa not only jeeps him fussed, fed and watered but bends over backwards and even plans around leave from her main job to take care if him when we're away. We are so lucky to have her.”
About: What sets me apart is that I don’t just care for pets — I also care for their environment. Alongside feeding, check-ins and wellbeing visits, I specialise in pet mess cleaning inside the home and in the garden. Pet care fits into my routine through planned daily and weekly visits alongside my cleaning services. I schedule short pet visits, feeding and check-ins around regular clients, which allows me to be reliable and consistent. This means pets are visited at agreed times, routines are followed, and owners can feel confident their pets are cared for without disruption 🐾 I care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable and routines are already established. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, litter trays, toilet routines and any specific needs. Safety and hygiene are a priority. I clean and sanitise pet areas during visits, always wash my hands between homes, and ensure doors, gates and litter areas are left secure. I’m calm, patient and completely judgement-free, which helps pets feel relaxed and safe. Owners can trust that their pets — and their home — are treated with care and respect at all times 🐾
“Kate was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of my cat while I was on holiday. It was so reassuring to know my pet was in such good hands. Communication was easy—Kate was always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I’ve looked after several dogs and cats in the last few years of varying ages and sizes, both at my home and the owner’s. Most recently, I sat for a very cute Lurcher puppy at his home three days a week, for four months last summer, helping to toilet and crate train him, and playing with him throughout the day while ensuring he got enough rest. I have looked after him on the odd occasion since and he is always very excited to see me. I have also looked after an 11 year old Dalmatian on three different occasions for 3-6 weeks at a time and we have formed a close bond. He feels comfortable in my home and needs quite a lot exercise so we enjoy lots of long walks together. When I first looked after him he could be quite reactive and would pull on the lead a lot, but we have done quite a bit of work together and he is much calmer now. I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for the sweetest 11 year old Miniature Schnauzer on several occasions for a few days at a time, making lots of time for snuggles but also taking her down to the beach where she loves to explore. I’ve also housesat for friends and family, looking after their cats while they were on holiday. My friend’s cats were quite nervous so I was happy to take their lead on how close I got. While they were wary to begin with, they would happily sit with me and let me stroke them by the end of the week. My friends have asked me to catsit again this September. All in all, the fact that owners have trusted me to look after their pets for long periods of time and on more than one occasion shows that I am reliable and will care for your pet like they are my own, with the utmost love, care and attention. The owners have also appreciated the regular updates and pictures I send and I will always make sure to do the same for you. I work from home four days a week and can be flexible on location so am happy to come to yours or look after your pet at my house. I’m available during the week and at weekends for quick drop ins, a full day or for boarding, from one night to several weeks at a time if required. I have a large, enclosed garden for your pet to have a good run around if needed. There are also lots of good walks nearby, including a park and the beach is nearby. I live alone and don’t have any pets or children, so can provide a calm, secure space. My work is quite flexible so I can make time to play with your pet and show them the love and attention they need. Also happy to crate if required.
About: Hi I’m Jacob - I’m a masters student and athlete, who is very passionate and experienced with dogs. I enjoy being outside and keeping active, and would be thrilled to take your dog for walks, and give them the attention they deserve! Small/medium sized dogs, and puppies are my expertise but welcome all ages and sizes. I understand how special your furry friend is to you, and I will treat your pet as my own and give it all the love, care and attention they need! The 2 puppers featured in my profile are currently living up in Scotland with my parents, so won’t be with me when I’m caring for your fur babies. The other 2 puppies held up by the young lady (my mom) are the 2 dogs I grew up with and loved so very much! You’ll receive plenty of pupdates from myself during our time together and I look forward to get to know you and your lovely pets! I am in the final stages of finishing my masters, I work from home and alongside my athletic career, I have plenty of time to devote to your pups in the great outdoors - come rain or shine!!!
“Nia looked after our dog Lola for the day and Lola settled straight in. Nia kept me updated with photos and messages, it looks like they had a lovely day. We’ve booked again and would definitely recommend Nia.”
About: Animals have always been at the center of my life — both dogs and cats are family to me, not just pets. Caring for them isn’t something I switch off from; it’s simply who I am. Every time I go on holiday, I make sure I’m prepared — I’ve even carried a 6kg bag of animal food in my rucksack while hiking up mountains, just to ensure animals are fed and cared for (with photos to prove it). I share my life with my own cat and understand feline behavior deeply, from quiet communication to respecting boundaries. I’ve trained my cat using positive reinforcement, including recall, sit, paw, high five, and spin. I also have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, always with patience, structure, and love. I currently volunteer at Llys Nini Cattery, where I’m surrounded by cats daily and care for a wide range of personalities — from shy and nervous to confident and playful. Every animal I look after receives the same devotion, respect, and attention I give my own. Special Skills • 🐾 Experienced with both dogs and cats • 🧠 Strong understanding of animal body language & behavior • 🐕 Excellent recall and basic training support • 🐈 Positive-reinforcement training for cats and dogs • 💖 Especially good with anxious, shy, or rescue animals • 🧘 Calm, reassuring presence that helps animals feel safe • 💊 Comfortable with basic medication administration • 🧼 Attentive to routine, hygiene, and enrichment • 📸 Regular updates and photos for peace of mind Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently volunteer at Llys Nini and am not working, as I’m focusing on pursuing my passion for animal care. This gives me a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive, unrushed care and adapt fully to each pet’s needs. I care for pets both at my home and at the owner’s house, depending on what works best for them. My home has a large, fully walled garden, giving dogs plenty of space to run, play, and explore safely. I provide structured walks, playtime, and mental stimulation, as well as a calm environment for pets to relax. At an owner’s home, I follow their routines closely — feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs or medications — to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I also make sure pets have plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, whether inside or outside, and I always keep their space clean, safe, and enriched so they feel happy, secure, and loved.
About: I've always had dogs in our family from Labradors, Whippets and Spaniels. Currently I have a 2 year whippet who is extremely friendly. I have been looking after family & friends dogs for the past 2 years including drop in visits, walks to doggy day care. I'm currently working remotely with flexibility to prioritise your pets needs. I am available everyday with expectations to Saturdays (this can be negotiated). I am available for drop in visits, dog walking and daycare. I have a enclosed garden, dog friendly household. Dillon my 2 year old whippet is extremely friendly and has been around numerous dogs all his life.

“I feel so lucky to have found such a lovely day care setting for Deedee. Dana is professional, caring and kind. Also very patient (as Deedee is a busy and inquisitive pup). Highly recommended.”
“I was so lucky to find Susana. My train got changed to a bus replacement - no dogs allowed - so my dog stayed with her for the afternoon. Susana went above and beyond to help me, and took wonderful care of my dog, sending me many pictures, messages and a video. Her address was easy to find too, and convenient to the motorway and a supermarket to grab a late lunch. I would highly recommend Susana, her husband and their beautiful Frenchie, Jasmine. Thank you Susana 🤗”
“Maria was great with our Winston and made him feel right at home for the entire stay. So much so, that he was a little reluctant to leave! Maria helpfully arranged an introduction with Winston ahead of the stay and sent photos and updates throughout the stay. We'd happily use Maria again. Winston was really lucky to stay with her.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always been a huge animal lover. I currently have my own dog, Joey, who is very friendly and gets along with all dogs. I work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone and will get lots of attention, routine and cuddles throughout the day.

Happy to do a meet & greet before any booking. I work from home full time, so dogs are rarely left alone and I’m able to give regular attention, toilet breaks and walks throughout the day.

“Amy looked after our golden Suki for the first time this week and I couldn't recommend her enough. The booking was last minute due to a change in work but Amy was able to provide doggy daycare for us. When Suki arrived she was a bit nervous and had an accident, Amy handled this wonderfully and put our mind at ease. Amy also took Suki on two walks seeking permission prior. I was able to ask questions and she kept in contact throughout the day with updates and pictures. I was really nervous leaving Suki with a stranger but would absolutely rebook Amy in the future. Thank you so much, she had a wonderful day ❤️”
About: Dogs have always been in my life. My best friend Jake devastatingly passed away last year who with me and my dad had raised since a pup as a rescue Stafie. This bereavement has made me treasure dogs and all animals alike much more, they rely on us and give their unconditional love and I want to give back and make their lives filled with fun and enjoyment. I have experience with all sorts of dogs, from different breeds such as Staffies and Labrador, from young energetic balls of energy to the seniors who love and deserve to be pampered in their old age. I'm currently a final year animation student on my summer holidays and looking to look after our furry friends. My schedule is very flexible until September after this I will update my schedule to reflect this as soon as I know my class dates. For now however I am free every week day. I have a large front garden, and a back garden (not fenced), however lots of large fields, woodland and trails in my local area. I would care for your dog as my own and treat them as the best, they would be well fed and played with lots. I would be honoured to build a relationship with them, a relationship built on trust and loyalty, values that I have been brought up with and built upon with my own dog who is sadly no longer with us.
“Kingsley looked after our dog so well. He sent us photos regularly and kept us informed of their activities. He’s so calm and calming. Our dog was happy throughout.”
About: I have a young Labrador who is after a companion! Friends and family have always come to me to look after their dogs over the years. I have dropped into their homes to take them for a walk, I have stayed in their home, and dogs have stayed in my own home. I always make sure the times are full of lots of fun and love! I’ve been on the rover app for a while now and am really enjoying meeting different dogs with different personalities☺️ A lot of my work is from home and I typically work out of the house in the morning or evening for a few hours. Im self employed so my schedule is flexible. I have a fenced garden, a lovely woodland and park walk situated right by my house. I am also only a short drive from a lovely beach! I have a really friendly pup who will keep your pet company.
“Gayathri has been a wonderful person in taking care of Pepper! Pepper was taken for walks and had a wonderful time! He didn't have a heart to leave Gayathri's to get back to us :) look forward to book again! Thank you so much!”

“We contacted Sophia at short notice to walk our greyhound a few times, we did a meet and greet the day before and we instantly knew Casey would be in good hands, friendly and very professional, on time for each walk and Casey was very happy. It's a 10/10 from us and Casey agrees wholeheartedly We highly recommend Sophia 😀”
“Arlo absolutely loved his dog walk, Keira was very kind and friendly and made sure she knew as much about Arlo before taking him out, couldn’t have asked for a more friendly service!”
About: I’ve looked after several dogs and cats in the last few years of varying ages and sizes, both at my home and the owner’s. Most recently, I sat for a very cute Lurcher puppy at his home three days a week, for four months last summer, helping to toilet and crate train him, and playing with him throughout the day while ensuring he got enough rest. I have looked after him on the odd occasion since and he is always very excited to see me. I have also looked after an 11 year old Dalmatian on three different occasions for 3-6 weeks at a time and we have formed a close bond. He feels comfortable in my home and needs quite a lot exercise so we enjoy lots of long walks together. When I first looked after him he could be quite reactive and would pull on the lead a lot, but we have done quite a bit of work together and he is much calmer now. I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for the sweetest 11 year old Miniature Schnauzer on several occasions for a few days at a time, making lots of time for snuggles but also taking her down to the beach where she loves to explore. I’ve also housesat for friends and family, looking after their cats while they were on holiday. My friend’s cats were quite nervous so I was happy to take their lead on how close I got. While they were wary to begin with, they would happily sit with me and let me stroke them by the end of the week. My friends have asked me to catsit again this September. All in all, the fact that owners have trusted me to look after their pets for long periods of time and on more than one occasion shows that I am reliable and will care for your pet like they are my own, with the utmost love, care and attention. The owners have also appreciated the regular updates and pictures I send and I will always make sure to do the same for you. I work from home four days a week and can be flexible on location so am happy to come to yours or look after your pet at my house. I’m available during the week and at weekends for quick drop ins, a full day or for boarding, from one night to several weeks at a time if required. I have a large, enclosed garden for your pet to have a good run around if needed. There are also lots of good walks nearby, including a park and the beach is nearby. I live alone and don’t have any pets or children, so can provide a calm, secure space. My work is quite flexible so I can make time to play with your pet and show them the love and attention they need. Also happy to crate if required.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I'm a caring, patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets, whether that's playing with them, giving them attention, or helping them stick to their usual routine. I work part time in a local school, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and overnight stays. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I aim to provide the utmost level of care and affection. I'll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you'll always know your pet is happy and having a great time. Throughout the day, I make time for play, cuddles, training, and keeping pets engaged and happy. I currently work part-time in a local school so have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve and ensure they feel relaxed, loved, and well looked after. A typical day with me includes plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I love being outdoors and am a confident walker, so your dog can enjoy long, enriching walks and lots of opportunities to explore. If we come back muddy after an adventure, there's no need to worry - I’ll make sure your dog gets cleaned up before settling back in. I also have a small enclosed garden to keep your dog safe if they are staying with me and I'll make sure to keep you updated with messages and photos.
About: I've always had dogs in our family from Labradors, Whippets and Spaniels. Currently I have a 2 year whippet who is extremely friendly. I have been looking after family & friends dogs for the past 2 years including drop in visits, walks to doggy day care. I'm currently working remotely with flexibility to prioritise your pets needs. I am available everyday with expectations to Saturdays (this can be negotiated). I am available for drop in visits, dog walking and daycare. I have a enclosed garden, dog friendly household. Dillon my 2 year old whippet is extremely friendly and has been around numerous dogs all his life.
“Ariana was lovely with our german shepperd Ozzy, although our dog has some general anxiety he loved Ariana since day 1, even sitting on her lap. Very grateful for her flexibility to walk Ozzy so we could enjoy our 3 weeks holidays whilst receiving pictures of a happy Ozzy :)”
About: I have been responsible for my family Labrador Sonny for the last 12 years. My absolute heart and soul! I walk dogs locally in my spare time, pairing my love for the outdoors and my passion for dogs. I also have experience dog sitting in exchange for accomodation abroad which I absolutely love doing! Please feel free to contact me about anything you might need, my schedule is very flexible and I’m always happy to help out in anyway I can:) thank you for considering me. I work a zero hour hospitality job, so usually my work schedule can tailor to your needs. A usual day looks like a healthy breakfast, a big long walk usually between a hour-two hours, then I go to work usually not more than a 5 hour shift, I like cosy evenings at home or strolling on the beach. I genuinely have such a good routine for a dog to slot right in I believe. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after in either my home or the owner’s home. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific care instructions. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship to keep them happy and relaxed. I also maintain a clean environment, monitor their health and behavior, and keep owners updated with messages or photos for peace of mind. I have a fenced garden and live right on the beach for plenty of outdoor time. Also a large park close by!
About: Animals have always been at the center of my life — both dogs and cats are family to me, not just pets. Caring for them isn’t something I switch off from; it’s simply who I am. Every time I go on holiday, I make sure I’m prepared — I’ve even carried a 6kg bag of animal food in my rucksack while hiking up mountains, just to ensure animals are fed and cared for (with photos to prove it). I share my life with my own cat and understand feline behavior deeply, from quiet communication to respecting boundaries. I’ve trained my cat using positive reinforcement, including recall, sit, paw, high five, and spin. I also have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, always with patience, structure, and love. I currently volunteer at Llys Nini Cattery, where I’m surrounded by cats daily and care for a wide range of personalities — from shy and nervous to confident and playful. Every animal I look after receives the same devotion, respect, and attention I give my own. Special Skills • 🐾 Experienced with both dogs and cats • 🧠 Strong understanding of animal body language & behavior • 🐕 Excellent recall and basic training support • 🐈 Positive-reinforcement training for cats and dogs • 💖 Especially good with anxious, shy, or rescue animals • 🧘 Calm, reassuring presence that helps animals feel safe • 💊 Comfortable with basic medication administration • 🧼 Attentive to routine, hygiene, and enrichment • 📸 Regular updates and photos for peace of mind Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently volunteer at Llys Nini and am not working, as I’m focusing on pursuing my passion for animal care. This gives me a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive, unrushed care and adapt fully to each pet’s needs. I care for pets both at my home and at the owner’s house, depending on what works best for them. My home has a large, fully walled garden, giving dogs plenty of space to run, play, and explore safely. I provide structured walks, playtime, and mental stimulation, as well as a calm environment for pets to relax. At an owner’s home, I follow their routines closely — feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs or medications — to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I also make sure pets have plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, whether inside or outside, and I always keep their space clean, safe, and enriched so they feel happy, secure, and loved.
About: I’m an experienced and caring pet sitter who has been looking after animals for years. I treat every animal as if they were my own with patience, love, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just good company, your pet will be safe and happy in my care☺️ I have spare time to have a feline friend around between my job as I’m only needed out of the house for a short amount of time, I make sure to schedule time for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention😍 I have a big garden with a fence. I focus on keeping them safe comfortable and happy, going for walks when needed and lots of fuss. I am also insured ☺️
About: Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets since I was around 15, including feeding, bathing, cleaning litter trays, and spending quality time making sure pets feel comfortable and settled. I’m particularly confident caring for cats and understand how important routine, patience, and a calm approach are, especially with younger or more nervous pets. While I haven’t formally cared for dogs yet, I’m very happy and eager to do so. I’m responsible, quick to follow instructions, and committed to learning each pet’s individual needs and routine. I take pet safety seriously, provide regular updates, and always treat animals as if they were my own. What sets me apart is that I’m attentive, reliable, and genuinely care about the wellbeing of the pets I look after - not just completing tasks, but making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away :) (p.s. I have 2 cats of my own) 🐾❗️ I also offer daytime care/house sitting for pets who need company during the day 😊 This is ideal for dogs who aren’t used to being left alone for long periods. As this involves extended hours (e.g. 8+ hours), this is priced as a full-day service rather than my standard overnight rate - feel free to message me to discuss and arrange what works best!❗️🐾 I’m currently not in full-time work so I’m available for any pet services daily from 10am. This includes dog walking, dog/cat sitting at your home and cat boarding. I always prioritise safety, trust, and the comfort of each pet, whether I’m caring for them in my home or in an owner’s home. I follow all care instructions closely and keep routines as consistent as possible so pets feel settled and secure. In my home, cats have a calm, safe environment. My own cats are outdoor cats and are able to go outside freely, however I have a lockable cat flap and can fully accommodate indoor-only cats by keeping them safely indoors at all times. My home is secure, and pets are always supervised appropriately. I also have a fully walled garden away from the main road, providing an extra layer of safety. Pets other than my own are never left unattended outdoors. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I treat the space with respect, ensure doors and windows are secure, and follow feeding, hygiene, and care routines exactly as instructed. I provide regular updates and photos, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, care, and attention.
“First time using the app and very glad that we found Katie. Not only did she come and meet our dog a few days before the walk, but she took him out today whilst myself and my partner were at work and our dog had a great time - we got plenty of photos and updates. Katie's professionalism is fantastic. She's gone above and beyond, making sure we feel confident throughout and asking lots of questions and offering advice. We will be rebooking with Katie again regularly and would highly recommend!”
About: My name is Egdana, I am an animal lover from Venezuela and live with my husband in St Thomas in Swansea (near the city centre). Both of us have had pets for most of our lives. Ever since I was 15 I have looked after pets, this includes dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, and even a pig! I work from home, so I am always available. We have 2 indoor sphynx cats, Chi and Luna, so it is important that your dog tolerates cats (they can be kept separate if necessary, but need to be accepting of them). We also have 2 guinea pigs that live in the garden, and although they will be kept in an enclosed space away from your dog, it is important that their presence does not drive your dog crazy as is the case with some breeds! We have a fully enclosed courtyard so your dog can go outside without any risk of being lost. I work from home, so I will always be here to care for your pet. My husband is also here in the evenings to help. We are working on making a fully enclosed catio (a small courtyard with a net covering it), so your pet can enjoy going outside without any risk of being lost. We have 2 indoor cats of our own that we care for, so you can have confidence that your pet will be safe here.

I adore spending time with animals in which over the years has given me a strong empathy and understanding of an animals energy, with dogs especially. Currently since I have moved to wales i have no pets. Being of service to others gives me great joy and keeps me in the present moment, especially when it involves animals. I am open to broadening my experience with any other kinds of animals such as reptiles, fish, insects, any animal in fact, please do not hesitate to contact me and we can meet and greet if you need to get comfortable with me looking after your pet.

About: I’ve had dogs ranging from miniature dachshunds to labradors since I was a baby and in the past year I have been looking after many dogs with my housemate through rover so I am very familiar with the service. I have experience in training puppies as well as caring for medicated older dogs. I have my own car and so love to take the dogs for nice long walks and to beaches too. I am a university student but I have currently finished for the summer so I have lots of free time to show your pets a lot of love. I already go on a lot of walks and beach days and so would love to include dogs to this. I do have a housemate who is also a rover approved sitter and so no dog is ever left alone. I have a fenced garden so lots of freedom in toilet breaks etc. I am also more than happy to have dogs on furniture and in beds so they can stay comfortable in their routine if that’s how they sleep at home. But I do also have crate training experience in order to keep your dog in their own routine.

About: I enjoy being outdoors and regularly explore the beautiful beaches of Swansea - perfect for keeping your dog happy, active, and engaged. I’d love to meet your dog and give them the best possible time while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages - from cheeky, energetic puppies to senior dogs who need regular medical care and a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds, having looked after everything from miniature schnauzers and chihuahuas to retrievers and german shepherds. I live alone with my own dog, Serpico - a friendly 3 year old lurcher cross, who loves playing and socialising with other dogs - so your doggo will always have great company. We follow a consistent routine with morning and evening walks, including time for off-leash runs, but I’m always happy to adapt to suit your dog’s individual needs. As a dog owner myself, I completely understand how it feels to leave your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I’ll always provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel reassured and relaxed while you’re away. I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays and will only offer boarding on these days as well as weekends. Which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your doggo. I usually go for a morning walk with my doggo at either the beach or park, providing space for a good run around. Followed up with a chilled evening walk to wind down. We’re happy to change up our schedule to meet your dog’s needs. I have a fenced garden and a dog of my own, who will act as a sociable playmate. I would love to meet up with you and your dog before boarding to make sure a connection is made with your doggo and that they feel comfortable staying at our home.
“We left our dog Leia with Sophie for the weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This was the first time we’ve left Leia with anyone other than family and she made us feel at ease. We received regular updates and videos, which really made a difference and reassured us while we were away. Leia came home happy and clearly very well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog boarder. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Leia!😊”
“Gayathri looked after my dog Ada for a full day (7am–7pm) at quite short notice. She was really accommodating with the timing and I got thoughtful updates during the day, which was very reassuring. When I picked Ada up, I could tell from her relaxed behaviour with both Gayathri and me that she had been well cared for.”
“Flo had a wonderful time with Evie and was really well looked after. She had lots of walks and we feel confident about Evie’s ability to take great care of our mini Dachshund 😀”

“Amy was amazing looking after my dog Jude who was made to feel immediately at home and was given the love and attention you would give your own pet. She checked on all Judes normal daily requirements and accommodated these perfectly. There was plenty of walks and lots of wonderful picture updates leaving me in no doubt that Jude was quite at home. I wouldn't hesitate in using Amy again.”
About: I have taken care of friend's dogs and owned dogs for the last 20 years. We offer a calm family environment with one 8 year old child who is used to having dogs around. We had a French bulldog for 15 years and now have a very gentle and loving labradoodle who loves the company of other dogs, small and large. We have a good sized fenced garden and have lots of lovely dog walking areas nearby. I work from home so I am able to make sure your dog gets lots of opportunities for toilet breaks and walks 🐾 I work from home and I am here the majority the time to care for your dog. We already have a dog who loves to explore the local area and would love another dog for company. My daughter is a very calm child and we have a very quiet home I have a fenced garden and a very friendly dog who loves playing. We are used to crating dogs so can accommodate that, if its your preference.
“Luna had a great, safe time with Maria for 2 nights. Maria kept me updated throughout with messages and pictures of her time there and she wasn’t afraid to reach out with any queries. Thanks again :)”
“First time leaving Freya so was a bit anxious. I didn’t need to be. Marryanne was very reassuring when she arrived to pick up Freya. Sent me photos off Freya on her runs on the beach. Will deffo use marryanne again in the future”
About: I have always been around dogs since I was a young child, starting with my German Shepherds, Sky and Rose, who were my first experience of family pets. We later acquired two smaller breeds, Lexi (Lhasa Apso X Yorkeshire Terrier) and Sandy (Chihuahua X Shih Tzu), and as I was older then - I took more responsibility with regards to walking, feeding and bathing them. When I met my partner a few years ago, we got our own dog Buddy, who is a Dachshund X Springer Spaniel, and I moved out. Buddy definitely keeps me on my toes with his boundless energy and personality! As you can see, I have extensive experience caring for different breeds of dogs and understanding their individual needs. Buddy had some trouble with nervousness and separation anxiety when he was a puppy and we worked on building his confidence and setting boundaries with a dog behaviourist in our home, which taught me a lot about caring for dogs with more complex behavioural needs. I also have experience when it comes to caring for cats as I regularly care for and enjoy spending time with my brothers 2 cats, especially when they are away for periods of time. I currently work part-time and so I have that extra time to be able to provide care for, or walk your pets hopefully when you would require me to. I walk Buddy twice a day, morning and early evening, so dogs who are happy to be walked alongside other dogs could also join us on these walks. When providing doggy day-care services, I have a large back yard and fenced in front yard, and Buddy has plenty of toys and treats he absolutely doesn't mind sharing with friends. When caring for pets in your own home, I am extremely clean and tidy, and would ensure I was always respectful in your environment, whilst ensuring your pet is well-cared for and most importantly, has plenty of fun whilst you are away!
About: I run a full-time doggie daycare, overnight dog boarding, and dog walking business based in Gowerton, serving clients across Swansea, including Mumbles, Sketty, and Clydach. With 6 years of experience working with all breeds, I’m passionate about providing tailored, loving care to meet the needs of every dog and their owner. Dog Walking Services For group walks, I offer 1-hour or 2-hour sessions, which I typically schedule for midday (around 12/1 PM). These walks are a fantastic way for dogs to socialize while exploring beautiful locations. For solo walks, I aim to accommodate your schedule, but these usually take place in the mornings (10/11 AM) or later in the afternoon (3/4/5 PM). Solo walks are priced slightly higher at £17 per hour due to the exclusive time booked for your dog. Day Boarding/Day Care My day boarding services run Monday to Friday, where I pick up dogs between 8/9 AM and drop them back off around 4/5 PM. This service offers a full 8-hour day packed with fun, socialization, and exercise. I take a group of 6–8 dogs on bespoke walks to beaches, woodlands, and mountains, allowing them to explore different environments. At home, they can socialize further, play with toys, and relax in my secure house and garden. Many of my dogs are regulars who are friendly, playful, and enjoy their time together. Overnight Boarding Overnight boarding is also available for those needing care beyond the day. Dogs stay in my home and are treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and comfort during their stay. Transportation I offer pick-up and drop-off services for all my clients, making it easy and convenient for you. Think of it as a “doggy school bus,” ensuring your pet gets to their destination safely and happily! Pricing Here’s a general breakdown of my services (prices may vary depending on location and pick-up/drop-off requirements): Dog Walk – Group (1 hour): £14 Dog Walk – Solo (1 hour): £17 Day Care (8 hours): £35 Overnight Boarding: £50 For households with multiple dogs or block bookings, I also offer discounts to make my services more affordable. Having recently moved to Pontardawe from Gowerton, I’ve retained my wonderful client base across Swansea and look forward to continuing to care for the amazing dogs I work with. My goal is always to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and has the best experience possible! I work full time as a dog walker, doggie day care and overnight boarder. My business is called Ellie Mae’s Dog Walking. I dedicate my life to ensuring your dogs have the best lives! I have a fully fenced, large back garden, providing the pups with lots of room to play. We have lots of toys and games to keep the pups occupied. We also have loads of local walks, as well as forest walks and beaches around by us! I also am fully insured, enhanced DBS checked and licensed.
