“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 :)”
“We had Ellie walk our little Pom on regular walks and she was excellent. Really responsive, trustworthy and very kind. Our dog loved her walks with Ellie and we will be using her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for friends, family and neighbors for over 8 years and adore spending time with animals. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care or simply providing company, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable and well looked after. I’m a ceramic artist and master’s student based in Battersea and currently freelancing, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel relaxed and entertained while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind, and regular updates on feeding. I am currently working freelance at a pottery studio, so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friend. Whether it’s morning walks around the park, visits during the day for feeding time or an overnight stay, my flexible schedule allows me to show up for your pet according to your needs. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my priority. I take the time to ask the right questions before meeting your pet, learn their routine, personality and any specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure in my care. I follow instructions carefully, keep home environments safe and secure, and provide regular updates with photos and messages. Whether caring for a playful puppy, an independent cat or a senior pet, I aim to create a calm, trustworthy experience for both pets and their owners.
“Shane M a nice guy who took the time to meet with Freddy before he started his walks. We had some great conversations about Freddy, and Shane was attentive to all the details I shared about him. It's vital for me to have someone who listens carefully, and Shane certainly did that. Unlike other sitters who may just want to gather information through messages, Shane made the effort to come and meet Freddy in person. It's important for me to know that our little furry friend is in good hands when we're not at home, and Shane really demonstrated that he understands this responsibility. I can’t express how much it means to me to see Freddy 🐶 happy and well cared for. Communication is key, and Shane kept me updated with photos and everything I needed to know. I can confidently say that he is an excellent sitter who genuinely loves dogs. Anyone in the Wandsworth town area can trust that their pets will be well looked after with Shane. I highly recommend him! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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: Hi, I’m Anastasia, a lifelong dog lover and proud mum to a 14-year-old Toy Terrier who’s still going strong! My husband and I have always been surrounded by dogs. His parents run Starzhy, a kennel of beautiful Bernese Mountain Dogs in Ukraine, and together we’ve cared for pets big and small — not just our own, but for neighbours, friends, and family in both the UK and Ukraine. Looking after dogs comes naturally to us. We know what they need to feel safe, loved, and happy, whether it’s a gentle walk, a bit of playtime, or just someone calm and kind while you’re away. Every dog is family to us, and we treat them that way. I work from home three days a week, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time during the day for walks, play, and company. On weekends, my husband and I are almost always at home, so your dog will never feel lonely or left out. Whether they’re full of energy or prefer a slower pace, we adjust to their needs and treat them like our own. We have a secure, fenced back garden that’s perfect for safe playtime and fresh air. And your fur baby won’t be alone ,our sweet and friendly 14-year-old Toy Terrier is always happy to share her space and keep new friends company. She's gentle, well-socialised, and still full of life!
“Teddy is a bit anxious, but he instantly loved Jennifer! She’s very responsive and reliable. I loved seeing Teddys report cards for his walks while I was at work, knowing he was safe and happy was great 💖”
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.
About: I grew up with with cats and dogs in the countryside, from a young age. I’m confident with dogs and cats of all sizes and have trained dogs from puppy age. I live right on Wandsworth common with perfect access for dog walking. I’m also a runner for any high energy dogs that need extra exercise! I’m currently on a career break so I’m super flexible to petsit whether it’s from my own flat or visiting your property. I’m very active so more than happy to take dogs for a lots of walks if required! And since I’m currently not working anywhere else, I have lots of time to give your pet plenty of attention and avoid leaving them alone for any periods of time. I live in a secure flat with a fenced balcony, right on the edge of Wandsworth common. I also have a car so can visit your house and transport your pet when required too.
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: I’ve always loved animals and have been lucky enough to grow up around them. I’ve had my cat for 13 years and had a family dog when I was younger, so I’m used to caring for pets and understand how important they are as part of the family. I’m currently between jobs, which means I have plenty of free time during the week to dedicate to looking after and walking dogs. Since moving to London, I haven’t been able to have a dog of my own, so I’d love the chance to spend more time with some furry friends again. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re well looked after, happy, and given lots of attention. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I’m currently in between jobs having spent the last three months travelling so I have all day to spend walking and caring for your pets. A good walk is always a welcome break from the job applications! I have a walled garden dogs wouldn’t be able to escape from and live a short walk from Clapham Common so they can have lovely long walks in the park
About: I’ve looked after and walked dogs since I was 10 years old. I’ve been fortunate enough to have my own whilst growing up and also friends, neighbours and family have also asked me to look after and walk their dogs when needed. I would love to be able to look after others dogs as though they were my own. I currently have a hybrid working schedule where I am in the office two days a week and wfh the other three. As my job role is very flexible I have the option to assist personal tasks around work tasks. I already walk a lot throughout the day generally hitting 15-20k steps and would love a furry friend to take with me. I also have weekend availability and could work around the needs of the owner. I am a friendly, approachable, caring and trusted individual that I know I would be able to look after your dog and care for them at the same standard you do. I live in a safe area and in a flat with space available and it is very secure. I would also be happy to come to your home if you preferred.
About: Growing up in South Africa, there was never a time we didn’t have animals in our home - they were a part of our family! Being surrounded by pets from a young age taught me how to care for them with love, patience, and compassion. I now live in Wandsworth Town with my husband, and we both absolutely love animals. While he enjoys their company as much as I do, I would be the primary carer as I work remotely - with a 4-day work week - allowing me to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care; whether it’s for daycare, walks, or overnight stays. I'm fully remote, including a four day work week. This allows me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets, and they would not be alone during the day. I live in a flat with two juliet balconies. Your pets would be welcome on our bed and furniture, and we have various parks nearby.
About: Hi all, I have experience looking after dogs, both my own family dogs and those belonging to friends / partners. Specifically I have looked after poodles, cavapoos, schnauzers, cocker spaniels etc, so I would say that I’m most experienced with looking after medium to small dogs, including training up dogs from puppy age to adult. I have more limited experience looking after larger dogs, but have had a Labrador board with me previously. I recently lost my senior furry friend Brandy (in profile picture), so would love to be able to spend time with and look after other dogs. I communicate effectively and will give you lots of pup updates, I have a day job requiring high communication. I am in walking distance from Wandsworth Common and Clapham Common to walk dogs while they board, and also have a private fenced garden. Generally flexible with regard to schedule, I am currently on sabbatical. Enjoy long walks and hikes and would love to bring a furry friend along. I have a private fenced garden and am walking distance to both Wandsworth and Clapham Common for dog walks. I have enough space to crate your dog if required. I do not have pets, so your dog will likely be by itself or very occasionally with another dog also boarding.
About: Growing up with a Labrador and Sprocker Spaniel at home in Kent, I’ve experienced firsthand the joy (and challenges) of caring for dogs of different temperaments. Whether it’s long walks, training sessions, or simply keeping up with their endless enthusiasm, I know how to provide the right mix of exercise, attention, and affection. I’ve also cared for dogs with special dietary needs and those who require medication, ensuring they stay happy and healthy while their owners are away. What Sets Me Apart? Since I can’t have dogs in London, I genuinely cherish every opportunity to spend time with them! I bring that extra level of enthusiasm and care, treating each dog as if they were my own. I focus on personalized care, adapting to your dog’s routine, whether they need high-energy adventures or a relaxed, comforting presence. Please expect photo updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands! Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide dedicated care and attention to pets throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adapt to a pet’s routine. On days when I voluntarily go into the office, I make sure to plan ahead, ensuring pets get the exercise and companionship they need before and after my time away. Safety & Trust: I have lived with animals my whole life and have volunteered in a vets so have experience with all ages, sizes, as well as a mixture of different breeds. I promise to treat your pet with the utmost care and attention so they feel safe & comfortable until you come home.
About: **Please note, I am currently only accepting walks/drop in visits that are local to me due to my current work commitments. Hello! My name is Molly, and I am a full-time animal lover. I grew up with pets all my life (mainly cats), but have lots of experience walking and looking after dogs of clients, friends, neighbours, and family. It's been my dream to have a dog of my own some day, and walking and sitting dogs is a passion of mine. The pictures you see are of dogs I have been a sitter/walker for. I am located in Wandsworth, but willing to travel anywhere around London to come walk or check in on your furry friend. I work from home every day of the week except for Tuesdays when I go into office. I am extremely accommodating and willing to work with YOUR schedule in order to suit you and your pets' needs. During walks/sits I will update the owner as often as needed on the pet's status, and am happy to schedule a meet and greet before any payment is made. I understand that both pet and owner need to be happy with their sitter/walker! A bit more about me: I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, and moved to London in 2023. I now live in the Wandsworth area, I love to explore the city, go to yoga, walks in parks and of course I LOVE animals! I am currently working full time mostly from home. Tuesdays are the only day I am in the office and would be unavailable for a day time walk. Please check my calendar for current availability. I am happy to stay in your home while you are away to care for your pet. I will accommodate any needs your pet has. Just let me know how your pet likes to eat/sleep/walk and I will ensure they get an expert level of care!

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. 🐾
