“Louisa was fantastic with clear messaging and photos of contented cat, helped me to relax while away. Then I came home to a happy, well fed and groomed and well loved cat. Thank you Louisa.”
About: I provide both regular and ad hoc walks and drop ins for dogs and cats, and other pets too. I have experience looking after and walking elderly dogs. I volunteer weekly at a local cat rehoming centre and am experienced with nervous and also elderly cats (my lovely moggie lived to age 20). I am experienced with nervous animals and rescue dogs - I have a retired greyhound myself. I’ve also previously had hamsters and budgies, plus a tortoise so am happy to care for most animals. I don’t charge extra for peak times - my pricing is the same all year round so my fee is the same whenever you book me so there are no surprises. I also don’t charge for more than one animal - up to 3 animals per visit. I’m pet first aid trained and I have my own pet sitter insurance (£2,000,000 Public Liability) for your peace of mind (certificates available on request). I also hold an enhanced DBS. I work flexibly from home for a national charity and am trustworthy and reliable. I began pet sitting in 2025 to enjoy time with more animals and love it! It balances very well with my other commitments and has brought me a lot of happiness as I get such lovely welcomes from the regular dogs and cats* I visit. *Cat drop ins are carried out between the hours of 4-8pm rather than a fixed time (unless your cat requires medication at a specific time). I will make sure that I gain your pets trust and understand what they enjoy and need. I will ensure that your pet is fed, toileted and left calm and happy after my visit. I will carry out your exact instructions and provide photos as I understand how nerve racking leaving pets behind can be.
About: I have grown up around animals and have always had dogs and cats at home, so caring for pets is a natural part of my life. While I am new to professional pet sitting, I am confident in feeding, walking and understanding animals’ needs. I am calm, patient and responsible, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and well cared for while you are away. I have a flexible schedule and can spend plenty of time with your pet. I am available on weekdays and weekends and can adapt to your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe and caring environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, walks and any special needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure and well looked after at all times. I have experience living with pets, so I understand their behaviour and needs.
About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals. I’m 18 years old and have just completed my A-levels and am available for pet sitting over the next year before I go to university. I’ve grown up in a home full of dogs, cats and other pets. Over the years, my family has regularly looked after pets for friends, neighbours and relatives, giving me experience with a wide range of animals and personalities. From a young age, I was trusted to take shared responsibility for the dogs staying with us, including feeding, walking, exercising, playing with them and making sure they felt safe and settled while their owners were away. I have experience caring for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to gentle senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’m comfortable looking after breeds of all sizes, from Dachshunds to Basset Hounds and Golden Retrievers. I also have experience caring for guinea pigs, hamsters and fish, so I’m happy to look after smaller pets too if they are part of your family. I enjoy getting to know each pet as an individual and making sure they feel relaxed, happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a much-loved family member, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same kindness, patience and attention that I would my own. Having just completed my A-levels, I have plenty of availability to provide reliable pet care before I go to university next year. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m happy to work with owners to find times that suit their routine, whether that’s regular visits, occasional check-ins, weekends or holidays. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs while fitting around any other commitments I may have. I understand that pets are happiest when they can stay in their own familiar environment and keep to their usual routine. When caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (where appropriate), and any other routines that help your pet feel safe and comfortable. I will treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect, ensuring everything is left clean, tidy and secure. I'll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, companionship and care during every visit, and I'm happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing they're happy and well looked after while you're away.
About: I have been walking dogs for neighbours and friends for 10 years. My family also fosters dogs, so I have a wide range of experience with different ages and breads. While I am at uni I would love to help with dog walking in the local area and to be able to enjoy animals while away from home. I have a flexible schedule and can help most days and most times to fit around your own schedule. Any questions please ask! I am available almost everyday except for wednesday afternoons as I am currently in the uni exam period. I am happy to work around any commitments i may have to provide flexible dog walking when needed. I do not offer dog sitting as I am in student accommodation that doesn’t allow it. For dog walking I will keep dogs on leads wherever possible to avoid potential conflict, unless dogs are very well trained and I know they will come back when I call or on command. I keep emergency treats on hand as well and will not hesitate to call should anything arise that I can’t handle alone.
“Kate has been fantastic looking after our cheeky puppy so we could go to some important appointments. It was clear how much he had grown to love her whenever she arrived and she made us feel very relaxed. We knew he was in good hands 😊”

Every pet is treated as an individual, with plenty of love, patience and attention, whether they’re a confident puppy, a gentle senior or a giant breed I specialise in building trust and creating positive experiences, never rushing walks or treating pets like just another booking. With over 8 years’ experience, alongside being fully insured, DBS checked and canine first aid trained, you can relax knowing your best friend is in safe, experienced hands☺️🐕 Available now full time sitting, walking and check ins and also now available for boarding. 1 household per booking. As I work on temporary contracts at a time I am available 24/7 in between travelling I will create a bespoke plan for your pets so it feels like you are still there whether that’s in your own home or boarding. I have a dog of my own so they will also be kept company if boarding which has a big gated garden, separate dog bed and crate if needed, toys and treats etc but of course pack their home comforts too☺️
“Ebony was a great help across a two week period. All according to plan - no fuss. Dog looked after and very happy. Thank you Ebony for being very reliable and taking good care of Lottie, our Staffie.”
“Rikki was very friendly and easy to deal with, was keen to know everything she needed to be able to look after my mother’s two cats, and proved reliable and a safe pair of hands, and very affectionate with the cats. Will definitely be using her again! ”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I grew up with cats and regularly looked after my neighbours’ dogs.

“Romilly was brilliant with our new Puppy Poppy and with our older dog Sadie too. She did two visits during the day and communication was superb with lots of updates for both visits. I highly recommend Romilly and will definitely ask her to look after our dogs again.”
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was born and currently have 3 Vizslas and am a KC approved breeder too, so am more than comfortable with puppies too. I have a few small businesses that I run from home & home educate my teenage son so I have time to fit in pet care with my routine I'm more than happy to pop in and feed /play etc with your pet while you're away or out, take it for a walk if necessary (depending on the type of pet!). I'm comfortable with most pets and if I were to agree to pet sit during the day or overnight at my own home, I have a large fenced garden with plenty of space and my pets to keep yours company
About: Hi, I’m Hebron, and if you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and active pet sitter, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve spent over 30 years working with animals. My journey began in Jamaica when I started working weekends as a veterinary assistant at just 15 years old. After leaving school, I worked at a zoo for two consecutive summer seasons before becoming a full-time veterinary assistant. From 2000 to 2003, I studied for my Associate of Science in Agricultural Science, where I developed a strong foundation in animal husbandry, welfare, and animal science. After graduating, I moved to the UK in 2003 and began working as an Animal Care Technician. While working full-time, I continued my education and earned a degree in Zoology between 2005 and 2008, combining university study with hands-on animal care. I continued working as an Animal Care Technician until earlier this year, gaining decades of professional experience caring for animals. In 2023, while living in Glasgow, I took a break from laboratory animal care and spent much of my time dog sitting and house sitting. It reminded me how rewarding it is to care for pets in their own homes and to build trusting relationships with both owners and their animals. Today, I’m based in Godalming, Surrey, where I work part-time as a personal trainer. This gives me the flexibility, time, and energy to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Whether your dog enjoys long, active walks or prefers a slower pace, I’m confident caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also know what it’s like to trust someone with a much-loved pet. My own dog, Ellie, was part of my family for many years, so I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. If you’d like to know more, I’d be delighted to arrange a meet and greet. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet before your booking. I work as a part-time personal trainer so I can travel to your home if you need your dog to be looked after in your home. Thank you :) I have a pet-safe-friendly home. I live alone in a ground-floor flat that is located away from the main road. Lots of grassy play areas are located directly outside the building I reside. There is a park nearby, a river pathway 2 minutes away and a large public park about 5 minutes away.
“Danielle met all our needs for our very unsociable cat and tortoise, she kept us informed and gave our cat lots of love, we would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again if she is available.”
About: Ive had dogs and cats all my life, i currently have 4 dogs (to which are puppies and 2 senior dogs) aswell as a senior cat. I currently work part time at pets at home(4 years now), so i am available a lot of the time to care for adorable pets! I provide constant attention to the pet aswell as however required long fun walks aswell! Plenty of cuddles and affection towards the pets as they have my full attention😁

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Waverley on Rover is £17.25 per Visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,601 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in Waverley. About 91% of Waverley sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter trays. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialisation or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
