“Leah looked after my two dachshunds for the day. The younger one is recently adopted and weary of people visiting so I was a little concerned but I needn’t have been - Leah is calm and understands them and their needs and very conscientious keeping me in touch during the day with photos and updates.”
“Absolutely brilliant. Caring, knowledgeable and communicative. Luke kept us up to date and looked after our greyhound very well. He was also a perfect houseguest and left things today and secure. We've already booked Luke for another dog sitting.”
About: We’re an animal loving family from East Sussex, with indoor and outdoor space to host. We walk as family several times a day and although having a full time pet does suit our lifestyle, we have a lot to offer in shorter term care. In short - along with my husband Andy and two daughters - I love animals. We are a home-ed family from Heathfield. Our day is largely spent based at home, with trips out several times a day - the majority of which are outdoors in the for of walks. We have a large, fully fenced garden and a large indoor space too. Our daughters are 8 and 5 years old me love all animals.
About: I started my dog walking and pet care business in 2017. I have studied extensively with the IMDT and am dedicated to offering the best care for pets with kindness, patience and knowledge. I have my own two dogs and have had a variety of pets over the years gaining experience of caring for furry, feathered or scaled friends. I currently work part time in the morning so would be available for early morning pop ins, afternoon walks and pop ins or evening pop ins. I use a van with crates to transport dogs to lovely safe walking spots and risk assess and adapt to different environments as I go.

“Clare was amazing with Beau and Digby! We felt really comfortable leaving our dogs with her. She asked us if we wanted pictures in the day and it was lovely to see the boys having a great day! 10/10 recommend!”
“Amber was so great with Badger, she gave regular updates, sent us pictures and let us know how they were getting on. Our house was lovely to come back to and the pup seemed to have a great time!”
About: I have my own dog and also have looked after pets for friends and family in the past. I have had my own dog for over 5 years and love him dearly. I look after every pet as if it were my own. I work full time Monday - Friday 9-5 so unfortunately can’t offer care during the week although could offer the evenings if required. I have my own dog to look after in the evening and weekends and love spending time with him and taking him out for long walks and days out. I have a fully fenced garden. My own dog is crate trained but doesn’t sleep in a crate at night but does sleep in his bed in our bedroom. If your dog is crate trained we can follow their routine and ensure that this is done. My fiancé is a fellow pet lover and adores all dogs.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, growing up with lots of different breeds, and I’m also very experienced with horses. I’ve ridden and owned horses since I was 5 years old and worked in Horse Racing as a work rider for 5 years. Over the years, friends and family have relied on me to house sit, feed, walk and play with their dogs and horses while they’re away. I treat every pet like my own - sticking to their routine, giving them proper attention, and keeping owners updated with photos throughout the stay. I’m a lover of all animals and a very adaptable person to fit into their lifestyle. I work remotely, so I have a flexible routine that fits easily around pet care. I’m available for house sits any time - weekdays or weekends and being home based means your pet gets consistent company throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches while I’m out at work. When house sitting, I follow your pet’s normal routine exactly as you’d like it kept. The same feeding times, same walks, same bedtime habits, so there’s minimal disruption while you’re away. I keep the home secure and tidy throughout the stay, and I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can check in and see your pet is safe, settled and well looked after.
“Berry just stayed at our home and looked after our two dogs for 7 Days. I cannot recommend her enough! She is a very responsible young lady and very lovely. Most days we got updates and photos of her walking the dogs on the beach. My home was left immaculate, with clean bedding and she even made sure we had milk for a cup of tea when we got home! The next time I go away she will be the first person I ask. Thanks Berry for being so great and I am sure my dogs are a bit depressed and are missing you!”
“Phebe was brilliant with our Dog, he is nervous around new people and can be reactive to people due to fear but he was obviously comfortable with Phebe and trusting of her as she was very gentle and kind with Him. She gave us regular updates to make us feel at ease, would very much recommend her and will be using her again!”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Wealden walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
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.
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 .
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wealden choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a key safe or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
