“Zahra looked after my cat - fed and watered him! She did a great job. I was happy to see photos she sent.”


2. Natasha G.


“Natasha was great with our cats while we were away. We loved receiving the photo updates and came home to two happy, well looked after cats. Communication was smooth throughout. Highly recommend and would happily book again. Thank you!”


3. Mischa P.
“I believe your pet couldn’t be in better hands than Mischa’s. She looked after my three cats for a week while I was away and did things that I wasn’t used to with most pet sitters. I’d get regular updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind and it was nice to know someone was actually playing and caring for my cats rather than just feeding them and putting on the tv. Highly recommend.”


4. Sarah A.

“We are so grateful for Sarah! She took such wonderful care of our cat, Liam. He’s usually quite reserved, but he immediately warmed up to her — a true sign of her gentle nature and experience with animals. It’s rare to find someone who can make an unfriendly cat feel safe and happy, but Sarah managed it effortlessly. Knowing Liam was in such good hands gave us real peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and truly gifted cat caretaker!”

9. Denise, Joanne H.
About: Living on a farm growing up, I have always been involved with the day to day care of pets and farm animals, so.looking after pets has been a lifestyle. I have a flat which is 10 minutes walk from many parks including the countryside, Munden Estate which includes Bricket wood and boasts 6 miles of footpaths and farmland. I'm currently at home full time, so I'm able to provide your pet with lots of individual attention and care, which can be tailored to their individual needs. Toilet breaks and exercise can be as often as needed. Freshly prepared meals can also be prepared upon request. I have many nearby parks so exercise and toilet breaks are provided and easily available. I'm currently working from home so can provide attention and care for your pet on a regular basis. Exercise and toilet breaks are readily available. Meals can be freshly prepared on request. I will care for your pet and provide regular walks and feeding on request and provide stimulation with a variety of toys and treats according to your pets needs and requirements.


10. Evgeniia P.
“I can’t recommend Evgeniia and her partner highly enough as dog sitters! They looked after my dog recently and did such an amazing job. They’re genuine animal lovers and treated my pup like their own, making sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They also sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. They’re super kind and reliable—I’d trust them with my dog anytime!”


11. Shannon W.
“Shannon has been looking after my dog during my holidays for the past 2 years and my dog loves her! I always come back to a very happy dog, she always follows the instructions I leave her, and goes above and beyond to make my dog happy. She’s incredibly loving towards animals, and always offers to walk my dog for me when at work as well. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to take care of my dog and wouldn’t recommend her enough!”

I am currently working part time as a dog walker, I’m available Monday to Friday, 9.30am - 2.30am. I can easily fit my schedule around your animals needs. Care included feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, cleaning litter or cages, administering medication if needed. Giving affection, keeping pets safe, comfortable and stress free whilst at home.


13. Chloe H.

“First time using Rover.com for a cat sitter, and if Chloe is anything to go by, I'll do it again. Chloe was a lovely person and perfect for combining looking after our cats with house-sitting. Both cats were relaxed in their known surroundings, and enjoyed having human company (although it wasn't their usual humans). Chloe sent me regular photos of the cats happy at home, which was a great comfort to know while abroad. The house was left as it was when we left, and Chloe even stripped the spare bed before leaving, which was a lovely surprise to return to. If we need an in-house cat sitter in the future, I'd gladly ask Chloe again.”


14. Anna C.

“Anna was fantastic with Gaia (cat), Anna was so kind and showed her so much love. I will be booking with Anna all the time from now on. Great service, lovely photos and videos on how well Gaia was great on. Thank you xx”


15. Eliza I.
About: i have 2 dogs and i have been taking care of them full time for 6 years. now that i am at uni i am happy to spread more of my love to other dogs i am currently working part time and am also a student but i have plenty of time to do drop ins as my classes are very spaced out and i am able to shift my work hours to fit with any requests if given more time i have worked with crate dogs and have also helped neighbours with their dogs seniors and puppies so i am happy to follow any instructions needed for any dogs


16. Teresa C.

“Teresa was absolutely incredible. From our initial meet and greet you can tell that she absolutely loves animals. I was really nervous leaving my cat Annie since she is timid and doesn’t like new people. However, Annie instantly went up to Teresa when they first met which she never does with new people! I felt comfortable leaving Annie with Teresa since I knew she would be in good hands. Teresa was incredibly accommodating and sent me photos with every check in. She’s an absolute star, I’ll most definitely book her again next time I need a pet sitter.”


17. Hayleigh W.
“Hayleigh has walked all of my dogs really well. They are always excited to see her. She is always in control of them and I feel confident when she takes them out.”


18. Melissa P.
“First of all, Melissa LOVES dogs! And dogs love her too! She perfectly balances play with discipline so that the dogs have fun and enjoy themselves, but at the same time know their boundaries which keeps them well behaved and calm. She has an extremely good understanding of the needs of each individual dog, rest assured they will be left in great hands with her.”


19. Amalia I.
About: Since I was little, I've had a huge love for pets! I'm super excited that now I finally get to make that dream come true and welcome some furry friends into my home. I totally understand how important it is to find someone caring for your furry friend. I’m currently working part-time and have a couple of days off, so I would love to welcome your pet into my schedule. Your furry friend will be in good hands! I have a cozy flat with two rooms where your pet can play and explore. Additionally, I have a very friendly cat Luna who would love to play with your furry friend during their stay.


20. Amelia E.
About: I love being surrounded by dogs, I can play with them for hours on end. I have had a dog in the family home since I was born, yet am still not bored of them. If your running late to come home I don't mind staying a few extra hours to care. I enjoy walking in my spare time so for me it would be great to have company to join me on my walks. If they like short or long walks I can do both. Your dog will never be bored under my care. If the dog just wants to sleep that's fine too. So if this interests you please message me. I work from home 3 days a week allowing me to give that quality time to a pet. I'm also a keen hiker and am looking for company on long walks. I have a fenced back garden so a very safe space for exercise. Also when I am at an owners home I can make sure to follow the pet sitters guidance on what is best for their pet.
