“I had an initial meet and walk with Agustin today and immediately felt trust and could see that he really has a good instinct and knowledge of dogs. I feel safe leaving my dog with him and excited and relieved to have found a perfect match!”


About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was six years old, having grown up in a family that always had dogs. Over the years, I have been responsible for their daily needs, including feeding, walking, and general care. In addition to looking after my family's dogs, I have also cared for my sister’s dog when visiting her for extended periods. A few years ago, I also helped a colleague by looking after their dog. My experience has given me a deep understanding of dogs' needs and behavior, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. As a full-time pet care provider, I offer flexible and dedicated support including 24-hour care, up to 7 days a week, for your puppies. Whether it’s overnight stays, daily walks, feeding, playtime, or general care, I’m here to ensure they receive all the love and attention they need, whenever you need it. At my home, I provide a secure and comfortable environment with a fenced yard where dogs can play safely. I ensure they get plenty of exercise, supervision, and affection. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow the owner's routines and preferences to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I always prioritize their well-being by maintaining a clean, safe space, providing fresh water, and ensuring they receive the attention and care they need.

“Szimonetta has been AMAZING, going above and beyond looking after our Spaniel puppy. And he loves her! It was a love at first sight so we knew straight away we made the best choice☺️ Thank you so much Szimonetta🙏🏻💜”


About: This is Lorena and Flavius! We are a millennial couple that work from home most days and are parents to a sweet, friendly Cockapoo. I’m a lifelong pet owner who grew up with a medium-sized Yorkie and a cat. Our Yorkie had a daughter that lived with my relatives and I also regularly cared for her. When I moved to London I didn’t want to have a pet of my own as I was still a student, so instead I started looking after friends’ pets whenever they went on holiday. After a few years my partner and I have finally brought a dog home, although we still enjoy caring for other furry friends! As pet owners, my partner and I understand well how important it is to have someone you can trust to look after your fur baby, so we are happy to make adjustments to make sure your pup has a safe, relaxed and happy time with us. Our pet, Amber, is an extremely friendly dog who has been socialised since she was very young and fully enjoys the company of other dogs. If your dog enjoys having a furry friend to play, this is the right place for you! Our flat is located right next to a dog park and we live close to a few big green areas in Walthamstow, so we’ll ensure your pet has plenty of walks and outdoor playtime. We are also a pet loving household, so we enjoy snuggling in bed and giving lots of cuddles throughout the day. If you think we’re a good fit for your pup feel free to get in touch - we’re happy to answer any questions! My partner and I work remotely most of the week. Because we have a dog of our own, there will always be someone at home to look after your pup. We walk and feed our dog three times a day, so caring for your pet will fit seamlessly into our daily routine. At home, dogs are welcome on the bed, rugs and couch. Whilst your fur baby is with us, we will provide constant supervision and attention to their every need. We are happy to observe rules and commands that are followed at your own home. Once with us, we will have regular walks in a trusted dog park. We will clean your pets’ paws after every walk and make sure we provide all care instructions (e.g., hair and teeth brushing as needed).

About: My Fiancé and I love animals, we are very experienced on rovers, we started using rovers to save to adopt our 2 Dachshunds! 🌭 which we have had for nearly 3 years! We use to have a lot of regulars we looked after in Hackney. We have Hollows pond right on our door step now and have opened our books again to look after other animals too! We have both grown up with animals all our lives, we adapt ourselves to what the animal needs whether they are anxious, reactive to other animals, slow walk or they have lots of energy to blow off! Our 2 Dachshunds are reactive therefore they would not be on the walk with your dog, we would pay full attention to yours ☺️ Kara works from home for a global luxury fashion company and Tom currently does not have a job therefore is free all the time! We live on the doorstep of hollows pond, lots of space to walk and even a swim with your permission! We are very patient trust worthy couple who will make sure your dog/pet is looked after very well! Make sure they are fed, clean and have lots of cuddles!

“Charlotte is an incredible pup carer. She cares for Peach beautifully, giving her exciting, stimulating games and activities and incorporating bits of training too. When we leave peach with Charlotte we always know that she’s not only safe, but also having a whale of a time. Peach loves Charlotte much - probably more than her owners. 😆”


About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I can remember- but sadly grew up in a fish household. Over the years I’ve taken care of neighbours and friends dogs both for daily walks and longer periods. I enjoy all aspects of dog care: walking, feeding, playing and bathing. Until I’m able to have my own dog, I’m more than happy to help take care of others. I currently work from home on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I can do full day care on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and can negotiate this for the weekends. I live in a modern flat which has a gated private garden and also live near plenty of parks which I’ve taken other dogs to.

About: I have walked and taken care of my family members and friend's dogs when they have a busy schedule for the past few years. Doing so I have decided that this is the type of part-time job I would like to peruse. I'm currently attending college where I do an Art course, since I have quite a flexible schedule, I'm able to walk, play and care for your furry friend. I have two Ragdoll cats, one is aged two and the other aged seven. They are friendly cats so they would love to keep your pet company, whether it be cat or dog. Alongside that I also have a large garden for the dogs to play in. For the cats, my house is very spacious for them to explore.

“Sarah was fantastic for us - she came to meet Alba beforehand, and was clearly a natural with dogs, especially big ones with puppy energy like mine. I felt very confident she would take care of Alba and he seemed to have a great time! Would definitely recommend.”


About: I love animals and the outdoors. I would love to go for walks and have company during the day. I have started a job where I will be working at home so looking for a dog that I can keep company and take for walks on my lunch break or before/after work. I would be available for walks or even just to dog sit during the day. I have a large bedroom and small backyard for day sitting. I grew up on a small block of land in New Zealand with dogs, cats, sheep, cows, goats, chickens and many other animals. Since being overseas I miss having animals around so would love to look after your dog when you are busy. Please let me know if you are looking for somebody during these times. I work from home Tuesdays and Friday so am available to dog sit during the day. I am also available for dog walking before 8.00 and after 5pm Mon-Fri. I am also available some weekends. I have a large large house with a small backyard. I have two other housemates who are sometimes around. Both love animals however I would be with them at all times.

About: I’ve just moved to Walthamstow with my boyfriend in a lovely flat with outdoor space. I miss having dogs at home - when I lived at my partners house in Oxford we looked after his sisters beagle Lenny for a couple of years and often dog sat for other friends and family members dogs, and had a good stint on borrowmydoggy in London. My partner and I are hoping to get a dog in the next couple of years time but until then I would love to spend a bit more time looking after some lil doggies! I’m available for dog sitting / walking for the majority of week as I work from home most days - can be as flexible as needed. We have 2 bedrooms and an open plan kitchen living room which leads out onto an enclosed safe balcony - we spend most of the time in the living room playing or cuddling.

Karen Lorena C.
“Karen took care of our little dog Cocoa. Cocoa has a condition where she needs to eat every six hours no matter what (Yes, that’s staying up till midnight, and waking up at 6am everyday). It would be an understatement to say that it is difficult to take care of Cocoa because of all the care she needs. Karen did an excellent job at taking care of Cocoa. She was always on time with the medicines, the food, and everything else. Not only that, Our doggo had a splendid time with Karen. Cocoa loves her!! I would 100% recommend Karen. She is loving, careful and very responsible!”
