“Another great visit. Brian really warming to Harry and enjoyed his belly rubs and play time with him. Harry’s a great guy - keeps good communication and regular updates and pings over photos during his time with Brian. Thanks Harry”


“Carlota was fantastic! She looked after our cat doing house visits over Christmas. Carlota was very thoughtful and charmed our grumpy cat completely. We would definitely recommend her and would be very happy to have her look after Micia again!”

About: Hi, I’m Shannon aged 27! I’ve always loved being around dogs and understand that every pup has their own unique personality and needs. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. Since I work from home full time, I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention throughout the day — including regular toilet breaks, walks, and play sessions. I’m comfortable with dogs and will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your furry friend is happy and well looked after. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your dog a fun, safe, and loving experience while you’re away. I currently work from home with flexible availability so would love to chat and hopefully be able to help you to ensure your dog is properly cared for I have a fenced garden, there’s no way to get in or out of the high rise garden other than via the house itself - more than happy to go to other people’s homes if that’s where your pet is more comfortable
“Meg is fantastic, I could not have asked for someone more attentive and caring to come and check on my cat. Meg was communicative and kept me updated consistently. I would absolutely recommend her!”

About: I have my own King Charles spaniel named Honey of whom I walk everyday so thought, why not help someone else out at the same time! Mostly available for walks but can be more flexible on the weekends :) I have my own dog and she is very well groomed and trained so open to helping other pet owners out at the same time. Looking forward to it! I a very flexible so happy to follow exact insurrections from the pet owners. My dog is allowed on furniture and we have a garden too!
About: Animal lover at heart ❤️. I have always had pets of different sizes. I am the most loving and patient person when it comes to animals. I have experience in dealing with various dog and pet personalities, from very young and energetic to older and more laid-back, I like to mirror their energy, adapting to their character and become their best friend. From long walks to cuddles, I can easily understand every dog’s needs and give them the right attention in their day-to-day activities. Looking after them has taught me a lot about empathy which is why I love doing this :) DISCOUNT CODE; JEFFEL47672, https://www.rover.com/sit/jeffel47672 Pet care would be my main job and I am available immediately! so please don’t hesitate to contact me.

“Brittany is brilliant, so understanding and considerate of my very nervous Dachshund Dora. Brittany kept me updated on progress and gained Dora’s trust quickly. Thanks so much for your patience and consideration!! X”

“Sophie looked after our cat the first time we went on holiday since getting him and I feel like he could not have been in safer hands! Was so reassured with regular updates and would definitely trust her every time.”

About: All my life I've grown up with dogs: Rhodesian Ridgebacks (magnificent), Dachshunds (naughty but unstoppably lovable), a Yorkie (my number one playmate) and a Basenji (crafty and my soulmate). I live with my long term partner Oliver and we joke that we are not kid broody, but dog broody so excuse me if I only have eyes for your handsome hound. Big or small, I can't help but hunch down and extend my hand to every pooch I meet. I am a calm, intuitive person with dogs who loves getting to know their personalities and quirks. And I'm pretty good with cats...if they let me ;) I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My partner and I like to travel on the weekends so I'm best suited for your weekday needs. Just let me know in advance and I'm pretty good at fitting your pooch in :) The pet is the king of the castle, though it needs to be house trained. I'm pretty chilled for your fur baby to have the run of the place and couch, the park is the only bathroom. Your hound or feline will have a dedicated place to eat and drink (always fresh) and can stick right by my side or have their privacy during the day. I am right next to two parks so it's just a quick trot to have fun and exercise. I work from home and the dogs and I go for a walk 2-3 times a day. As I work from home for the majority of the week, I often have a client over. I ensure they have access to food and water at all times and ensure they are comfortable. We do have short staircases in our home, so dogs that are uncomfortable with these may not be the best clients. I'm careful where food or anything chewable can be found.
“We left our two kittens with Carmel and she was amazing. Everything went very smoothly. She replied to messages quickly, sent detailed updates, and took great care of everything! Defined will contact her next time.”

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life, starting with our first family dog when I was 2 years old! I’ve taken responsibility for walking, feeding and caring for both our cats and dogs throughout my teenage and adult years. I’m experienced in dealing with young and old pets as well as behavioural quirks and obedience training. I really miss having pets of my own and would love to help you take care of yours! I work full time but a couple of days a week from home and my partner Alex works from home 5 days a week. We are available weekdays and happy to help on weekends too if free! We have a spacious flat that’s very close to several Commons with plenty of areas for dogs to explore. We are an active household so enjoy taking them on regular walks and outings. I treat your pets like my own, making sure they receive plenty of love and affection and feel right at home.
About: I grew up with dogs (a corgi & miniature pinscher) and have been dogsitting on-and-off for the past 8 years. This has included dogs ranging in age, size, and temperament. Additionally, prior to moving to London I fostered a sweet mix breed for 5 months while she waited to be adopted. I recently left my corporate 9-5 so I have a very free and flexible schedule while I plan my next career move! Right now I have essentially full availability. I'm based near Clapham Junction on a quiet road with a fully fenced in back garden. I have live with a flatmate and her sweet medium sized dog, Cookie who is welcoming to other dogs she has already met. In the case of boarding, we would have to do an intro for the two of them :)

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats my whole life. I have a cat and dog myself and enjoying taking care of them! I’m currently finishing my studies so have plenty of time to care for your animals! I’m free during the week Monday to Friday during day. I will not be using my home to take care of animals. I would prefer walking and house sitting in your home. All the best
About: Hiya! I’m Livia (Liv for short), I’m a 26 year old history grad who works in policy/public affairs. I work entirely remotely so am always at home and would love to have a pet to keep me company during the day and on my work break walks. I grew up obsessed with dogs and cats, always wanting to visit family and friends who had cats and dogs, especially if it meant we could have them for a sleepover. At home (in the north east), I have an English springer spaniel called Eddie, he’s 10 now. I’m used to training dogs and very high energy ones too. I also have a black rescue cat called Sirius Black (13 year old me loved Harry Potter) even though she is a cat not a dog and is a girl, she’s very shy, nervous, and timid due to her traumatic life as a kitten before we got her at 7 months. Over time, me giving her space and lots of love, she has come out of her shell and now loves cuddles and playing with any empty boxes and string. Since moving to London, I have missed having dogs and cats in my life but I’m not ready yetto fully commit to owning one of my own… but I’d love to look after your fury friends whenever you need me too! I’m happy to walk, feed, play and most importantly give love to your family pets whenever you need me! I work from home 5 days a week so would love to have a furry friend to keep me company. My work is fairly flexible so I can spend time between meetings playing, cuddling and walking your pets. I am very active and love walks - I have to be outside before and during work hours, I hate being cooped up (a little bit like a dog), so I’d love to have a furry friend to keep me company on getting fresh air. I have a fenced large communal garden that your dog can have a good run around in - it’s super helpful whenever I’ve looked after friends’ dogs. I also have comfy sofas with blankets and two beds that your dog is welcome to chill on, my desk is in the living room or the second bedroom where there is a bed your bed can chill on, or the sofa next to me in the living room - I’ll work wherever they want to chill so I can keep an eye if they need anything.

About: I've been around dogs since I was 12 and have cared for three very different breeds: a gentle giant Newfoundland, a strong and energetic American Staffordshire, and a cheeky mixed small-to-medium breed. Each one taught me something unique — from handling strength and stamina, to understanding more sensitive or anxious behaviours. I’m confident walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always tailor my care to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, slow strolls, or just lots of cuddles, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I work Monday to Friday with a lot of flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to fit in walks and visits throughout the day. My partner also works from home three days a week, so there’s always someone around, adding an extra layer of attention and care when needed. We’ve been living together for 5 years and have a lovely, secure garden at the back of our house — perfect for playtime and fresh air. I’m also fully available on weekends, so I can offer consistent, reliable care whenever it’s needed most. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the owner’s place, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. At home, we have a secure and private garden where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time. Since my partner works from home three days a week and I have a flexible weekday schedule, there’s always someone around to keep dogs company and ensure they’re never left alone as I am able to stay at home for the other 2 days if needed. We’ve created a calm, pet-friendly environment, and we treat every dog like part of the family. When caring for pets in their own home, I always respect the routine and house rules they’re used to. I pay close attention to each pet’s behaviour and needs, and I always communicate clearly with owners to ensure peace of mind. My experience with different breeds — from strong and active to sensitive and small — means I’m confident in providing safe, thoughtful care tailored to each individual dog.
About: I recently moved to London and am currently looking for a new job, which means I have plenty of time to dedicate my full attention to caring for your dog. I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience working at animal shelters, where I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My dachshund Honey is a sweet and friendly pup who gets along well with other dogs however he mostly keeps to himself and will give your dog plenty of space if they prefer alone time. Because Honey has separation anxiety, I know how important constant care is. We never leave Honey alone and that means your dog will never be left alone either while staying with us. At home, we have an enclosed patio/garden where dogs can safely relax outdoors. Dogs are always welcome on the furniture and the bed and will have free roam of our house. We also live next to two large parks where we will take your pup for daily long walks. I take honey out several times throughout the day for potty breaks/short walks before taking him on one big walk at the end of the day but I can work with your dog’s schedule if they need more or less exercise. Our home will be a clean, safe environment for your dog where they will get lots of love, cuddles, and attention. If your dog prefers to have their own space we can make that work too. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and we have plenty of space to fit their crates or beds.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old and they are my world and I love walking and pet sitting dogs!❤️ I have looked after all ages of dogs whilst on my pet sitting journey and love inviting them into my home with my boyfriend (also a dog lover!). About me: I am a law student currently and would love to fill my spare time by looking after your dogs! I love going on walks and it’s even better with the company of a dog! I tend to walk morning, lunch and afternoon/evening or one longer walk further afield. I’m at home everyday and love the company of a dog in the house. I can adjust my schedule to accommodate your fury friends routines! Although my flat doesn’t have a garden there is a dog park less than a 5 minute walk away. Dogs are more than welcome on the furniture of my home for lots of cuddles and relaxing too.
Wandsworth pet owners share their Rover experiences
Sharon looked after mr Cat for a week while we were away. She came in every day twice as agreed, morning and evening, was very responsive on the phone and sent through ample updates on mr Cat. He took to her right away and wasn’t shy at all which was nice to see. Sharon was also very helpful when I forgot to do something around the house, and kindly picked up parcels left at the door step. In addition to all she is a lovely person so I would highly recommend.

We couldn’t be happier to have chosen Vanessa to care for our cat during the holidays. She kept us constantly reassured with lovely photos and detailed updates, which meant so much to us while we were away. Vanessa is incredibly thoughtful, kind, and attentive, and it’s clear that a strong bond formed between her and our cat. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. I highly recommend Vanessa and will absolutely book her again next time ☺️

We were so pleased w Ellie after she catsat for our Bengal over the summer and were so happy to have her back a second time. Jigsaw is clearly fond of Ellie’s gentle and caring touch and our family loved receiving her updts/pics helping to put at ease while we were away. Ellie is quick to communicate and I never worry knowing she is attentive to our girl and home. Thank you, Ellie!
Jurate was absolutly brilliant! She's so lovely and caring, it was a real pleasure to have her look after my cat. She really went above and beyond, was so diligent and always kept me updated with pictures. She would go out of her way to spend time with my cat, given she's a very sociable, friendly cat, always showed up on time and kept me up to date with everything. I would highly recommend her and would definitely rely on her again next time I'm away! Thank you for everything xx
Erika was absolutely wonderful with Sunny during our absence. She took such great care of him, and her regular updates were very reassuring : Sunny looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved in every message and photo. It was obvious he felt comfortable and safe with her, which meant a lot to us while we were away. Erika is reliable, kind, and genuinely caring, and we wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to look after Sunny again. Highly recommended

We can't recommend Hannah and her housemate, Sophie, enough. They were polite and friendly to deal with, always responsive, popped around before we went away to say hello and meet our cat, and then, whilst we were away, spontaneously sent lots of updates and photos of their daily visits. We will definitely use them to look after our pets in the future. Thank you so much, girls!
