“Sam is an absolute professional. Clearly has a lot of experience with dogs and takes time to get to know their specific needs and quirks and makes sure to work around them. As the owner of quite a high demand and drive dog I was very impressed how quickly Sam was able to adapt to her needs. Couldn’t recommend highly enough, 10/10.”
“lobo had a great time was spoiled but great walks and lots of care. We received loads of pictures of the walks and lovely feedback each time. Really happy to have discovered Juilette who we WILL be using again ( and again ). Thanks again, James”
“Jessica has been brilliant walking Phoebe a few times a week while I recover from knee surgery - Phoebs always comes back happy and tired from her walk and park adventures, and Jessica has been super reliable and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend!”
“Ellie was fantastic with Twiggy! She was very flexible with my schedule and I really appreciated that. Twiggy was properly tired when I picked her up!! I would happily book Ellie again :)”
About: I'm a huge animal lover in my late 20s who enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and quirks. Whether it’s energetic walks, overnight stays, or keeping nervous pets company, I aim to make them feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. I’m tidy, respectful, and happy to provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind. I work from home most days, so I am very flexible in terms of days/times. I am also available on Saturdays, and in the evenings. I'm unfortunately not able to have pets in our flat, but I would be happy to pop in and check on your pet, or take your dog for a walk!
About: We’re Jay and Si, just two dog people without a dog of our own! We really miss having one around and would love to share our time (and sofa) with yours. We’re super easygoing and reliable, and will treat your pets like part of the family with lots of love and cuddles. We usually work from home three days a week. Jay on Fridays, and Si is flexible. Weekends are usually pretty relaxed too, unless we’re travelling. But we’ll always do our best to help out if we can. Your dog will get lots of attention and affection from us. We’ve got a few big parks close by, so it’s really easy to keep active. We’ve both grown up around dogs, so we know the drill keeping them safe, happy, and cared for.
About: Dogs are the BEST, we all know that. I have never been able to get my own but I will one day. In the meantime, I am taking every single opportunity I can find to spend time with dogs. And yes I am that person. The one who smiles to every single dog on the street? Borrow friends' dogs whenever possible? Actually wants to see pictures of your dog? Even if I have always been around dogs, I have really started dog sitting for family and friends in 2020, for durations ranging from 10 days to 9 weeks. The biggest dog under my loving care is 43kg (a very sweet English bulldog). Please note that I have limited experience with puppies younger than 1 year old). However, my brother just got a 5-month old miniature American shepherd (Saito) and I cannot wait to bridge this experience gap! I have recently completed a Pet First Aid & CPR course (April 2026) This is my main activity and something I absolutely love doing. I am quite flexible on week days and on weekends and can accommodate long-term requests if needed, as well as visits to the vet etc My top priorities are your peace of mind and your furry fried's comfort - being away from a beloved pet is stressful enough as it is. Each pet has their own individual personality, needs, and boundaries and it is my job to know these and ensure their routine is not disrupted. I have also recently completed a Pet 1st Aid & CPR training course.
“Lizzie is great, she’s good at communicating and Teddy adores her 💖 We’ve bumped into Lizzie recently, when Teddy wasn’t booked in, and the level of excitement he had when he saw her was adorable, he really loves spending time with her.”
About: Having worked with both puppies and senior dogs of both large and small sizes for many families, I am well experienced in all kinds of doggie personalities. I have always regularly dogsat for friends and family, whether this involves dog walks, drop-ins or housesitting. I also worked as a stewardess on superyachts which fortunately involved much professional dog-sitting - a major perk of the job! Now I have moved to London, I live an active lifestyle but work from home most days, so I have lots of time to give to gorgeous pooch! I have a very clever goldendoodle back in my family home, Alfie, and a very vocal Jack russel cross, Rufus. Both huge personalities who take a lot of energy but I miss them massively! I have been dog sitting for friends and family for the past decade, so am eager for the opportunity to care for a lovely dog that might need it now I am based in London. Whether it is dog sitting, walking or just check ins you need - I am eager and well-versed enough to help out where I can! I work 5 days a week 9-5:30, with only 2 days of these in the office. My job is fairly relaxed so I have plenty of time to give any pets that need attention, whatever level that is. Weekends are mostly free, I tend to stick close to home and do something active like running, walking or the gym. I am more than prepared to give your pooch however much attention and play needed for a happy dog whether that is 2, 3 or 4 walks a day. I understand the importance of keeping a strict routine with feeding and medication so I am more than happy to take responsibility and implement this also! I currently live nearby the Queens Club in Fulham, (West Kensington) in a semi-detached terraced house. I have a large open plan living room and kitchen, as well as a study, these will most likely be the spaces used most with your pet. Fortunately I have a small encloses garden with a small green patch and patio off of the living room. I live opposite a lovely park and close by to many others. Also a short walk from the river which offers many long walking routes to suit the needs of any activity levels.
About: I’m quite new to puppy sitting through Rover, but I’ve cared for family and friends’ dogs throughout my whole life. I’m responsible, dependable, and love spending time with animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat your dog like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. With a spacious flat, fenced off garden and plenty of local areas for dog walks/runs, I’ll be able to offer daily care for your dog as a fully remote/work from home girl looking for some company while I work! I work full time from home, with a very flexible schedule and minimal calls allowing me to look after your pups needs as and when they need me! I have a spacious flat with a fenced garden and more than happy to let any fluffy friends sit with me as I work, as well as being happy to stick to whatever schedule the dogs are usually used to so that their transition into my home is as easy as possible!
“Melody was great with our Rio! She was patient and extremely helpful as she also agreed to meet in a location further away from where she’s based: Melody was sweet and caring and we will definitely leave our Rio with her again :)”
About: Hi there! I have 3 years experience cat and dog sitting, including looking after keys, and have had both cats and dogs (and horses and chickens!) my whole life. I am experienced with anything from my own shih-tzus to nervous rescue spaniels to very active dogs who need long walks. I am looking to spend time with animals since moving to London as I truly miss them! I love sending updates about your pets and what they’ve been up to that day. Confident with rescues and able to administer oral medications. Enhanced DBS checked and insured. I work in a theatre as an usher, so my working day varies but usually doesn’t start until 5pm. Mornings work best for me, especially early mornings. Normally free anytime before 5 Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and earlier mornings on Fridays and Saturdays. I try and as flexible as possible so feel free to send me a message. I am very aware of how important it is to take care of pets, having had them myself. Above all, I follow instructions closely and ensure to keep areas secure, such as closing doors and gates. I understand in the case of indoor cats to be very conscious to keep them inside (I have indoor cats too). For dog walks, I tailor the length to what best suits and love taking dogs to nearby greens and parks.
About: We're Natalia and Luke, both in our late twenties and we absolutely love dogs. Combined we have grown up with 10 dogs, 7 of them rescues, covering everything from a King Charles Spaniel to a German Shepherd. We both volunteer regularly at a rescue centre (where our parents rescued many of our dogs) and have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and all temperaments. Natalia also spent years caring for McCoy, her parents' 14-year-old Labrador (named after the jockey, not the crisps), who had various health needs in his later years. Friends regularly leave their Border Collie mix with us for overnight stays, and he always settles in well. We live right next to Battersea Park and go there every day so we can cater to whatever your dog’s walking needs are. We work from home two days a week and are free both days at the weekend, so there's plenty of availability for day care, overnight stays or longer trips. We're both early risers, and like to get out early and often. We're also happy to do overnight boarding, and have done so regularly. We live in a ground floor flat right on the edge of Battersea Park. The flat has two entry doors, making it secure, and there's a small private courtyard. While there's no large garden, Battersea Park is essentially on our doorstep. Outside, we're happy to accommodate whatever works best for your dog. Natalia has handled dogs that require a muzzle due to reactivity and has plenty of experience with dogs that need to stay on the lead at all times. We'll of course always follow your lead as the owner and won't make assumptions about what a dog can or can't handle off lead.
About: My dog journey began when working at a local community park cafe - welcoming the regulars and their dogs was the highlight of the day! I’ve regularly cared for my brother’s dog which has been a great joy. Maisie has kept me on my toes and I’ve deployed a warm, attentive and caring style to keep her safe and happy. I am currently on a career break so have plenty of time and flexibility during the week to take the best care of your dog - morning, afternoon or evening. My services are currently dog walking only for now, so I won’t be hosting any dogs at my home or staying at the dog owners home.

Wandsworth dog owners share their Rover experiences
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t be happier with the dog walking service! My dog came back happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. Hannah was friendly, reliable, and took great care of my pup, giving me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I really appreciated the updates and the genuine care shown throughout the walk. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Jackson has walked my dog several times, and I have always had a great experience. He is reliable, friendly, and always willing to help, even when I contact him on short notice. He has a positive attitude and clearly cares about the dogs he looks after. It gives me peace of mind knowing that Bodhi is in good hands when Jackson is taking care of him. I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog walker :)
Dylan is excellent!! Ori immediately took to his calm and confident energy from the first meeting, which inspired tremendous trust as Ori can be reactive at times. Dylan has been reliable and quick/easy to communicate with from the get-go, and we've quite easily been able to figure out logistics in a way that works for us both. We'd highly recommend his services and look forward to more walks in the future!
Sam was great with Bodhi. He was kind and attentive, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. He was professional, communicative, and had a great attitude from the start. I would happily recommend him to other pet owners :)
Samika is a wonderful dog walker for our dog Olive. She is always on time and is very organised but most importantly she always looks after Olive incredibly well. Olive is always beaming in her photos on her walks and I know she always looks forward to seeing Samika! Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy and reliable dog walker in London ☺️
Cannot thank Sofia enough! I reached out last minute for a dog walking/sitting request for our 4-month old puppy Charles, and she responded very quickly to the request. Communication was great, and she sent me loads of photos and videos from the walk and sitting - this was our puppy's first time being with a dog sitter, and I was a little nervous at first but it looks like he loved it! He is now fast asleep at our house - a good sign of time well spent. Thank you again Sofia for your help!
Helene has been absolutely fantastic with our Weimaraner, Trevor! He took to her immediately and it was obvious from the start that she has a real way with dogs. She walks Trevor for us every week and has also completed two house sits, both of which have been excellent experiences. We’ve always come home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. Helene is reliable, thoughtful, clean, and incredibly courteous. We trust her completely and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets !!
Charlotte has gone above and beyond! Scarlett returned from her walk very happy and has been enjoying her best sleep after her walk. It's clear that Charlotte genuinely loved and takes the time to ensure Scarlett is comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I couldn't be more pleased with the care and attention she's received. Thank you :) Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Couldn't recommend Olivia and Guy more! I have a nervous dog who is not always great with new people but she quickly warmed up to them and had a lovely walk. Olivia is super responsive and flexible, and I received tons of pictures and videos throughout the afternoon. Will definitely be booking with Olivia again!
Kieran has always been amazing with our dog Cooper. When I needed cooper fed and walked while I was at work Kieran was always very reliable and never let us down. Kieran was always great at communicating to ensure we knew how Coopers walk went and would always let us know if he felt Cooper was a little off or to keep an eye on him. You could tell how much he loved Cooper and Cooper loved him. 🐾
