“Kizzie was an absolute godsend looking after our anxious cat Lily while we were away. Within one visit to the house, she had gained her trust and Lily was so happy to see her every day. We will definitely be using Kizzie again and can’t recommend her enough.”

I’m looking to do pet walking and sitting for day only on Thursdays and Saturdays this is my only free time as working the rest of the week.

About: I’m a friendly and responsible 25 year old who absolutely loves dogs and being active. I work from home most days so can be with your dog all day. Your pets will be given all the attention and/or space they need. I have experience with dogs from volunteering with the cinnamon trust, which involved walking dogs for the elderly, looking after friend’s dogs and helping to care for my boyfriends’ 2 ShihTzus. I absolutely love dogs but do not have one of my own so your dog will be my sole focus :) I live right on moors so your dog can run as much as they want and go and explore round the huge woodlands and fields. I am happy to keep dogs on a lead or have them off lead - what ever you would rather. I love to hike and be outside so your dog will be well exercised but I also love to just chill on the sofa so I can accommodate all types of activity levels. I will listen to all of your instructions about your beloved friend so they will be very well looked after!! Thank you so much for choosing to entrust me with your pet :) I am very active so taking a dog out for regular walks is no problem as it fits in with my normal routine. I have my own car so we can venture out and explore new places. I will give the dog their own space if they need it or I will be with them constantly depending on their personality. They will be the sole pets in my home so there is no issues of keeping anyone separate. In an owners home I will listen and respect all the instructions given to me and follow them to a t!
“This is the second time we have booked Sophie to look after our cats. Sophie is fantastic, providing a great level of care and consideration for the cats and our home. We get lots of photos of the cats enjoying themselves which is really reassuring. Sophie stays for the full 30mins and spends that time giving the cats her full attention, playing with them and giving them fuss.”

About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, from my childhood obsession with big cats, to helping at a local stables to looking after my gorgeous Senior family Staffie! I have always found spending time with animals to be like a kind of therapy, so volunteered to walk and care for neighbours' dogs during my three years at uni. This ranged from a lurcher pup to a senior Collie X so I enjoyed caring for a range of breeds. I currently work as a teaching assistant at a local SEN school and have previously worked as a support worker, so I do consider myself empathetic and responsible. I know that pets are an important member of any family so would be sure to provide the best care possible, whatever your little friend may need. Since I work full time in a local school, I am available before 8.30am and after 3.30pm most weekdays, depending on your location. I am available on weekends and am fully flexible during school holidays and half-terms. As a dog owner, I understand that the safety ans happiness your pet is crucial when looking for a sitter. With this in mind, I’m happy to do whatever I can to put you at ease. When sitting, I’ll always provide updates of how the pooch is doing and what we are getting up to; will always be mindful of keeping your space clean, calm and secure; and will make notes of your pets routine and specific needs. I’m more than happy to meet up or chat on the phone before sitting, and can provide professional and personal references on request.

About: I have grown up with dogs, hamsters, rabbits and cats. I have a dog of my own, a German Shepard x Doberman, I've had her since a 7 week old puppy. We love going out for long walks and being social in the dog park. I have good experience with big dogs, and highly active dogs, as my family dog was a border collie who didn't ever want to stop. Alongside this I love all other animals, my sisters always had a wide range of reptiles and I've enjoyed meeting and greeting her latest addition. I feel like as long as I'm with any type of animal I'm happy, if that's long dog walks outside or just a bit of attention on the sofa. All animals deserve to be treated like family and I can assure you, if you chose me to help out with your pet, I'll treat it like my own and with love and care I love spending time with my dog, going for dog walks and being outside, I enjoy socialising with other pet owners and getting to know new animals.

I have a fenced off garden where my dog and your pet will be let outside, I take them for a morning walk, and evening walk, and they are let outside multiple times throughout the day. They get lots of cuddles and care. My dog gets fed in the morning and the evening, and a few treats whilst out on the walks.

“Millie was so good and kept us fully informed and sent us Lovely Photos too. What a really Nice Girl and Billy appeared to enjoy the attention he got from her. If he could talk he’d say she was Purrfect Lol at looking after him. Definitely recommend Millie and we will ask her again if we need someone for Billy Thank you Millie”

About: My experience with just dealing with pets is having my own animals from young. I've had fish, hamster, guinea pigs and dogs. My first dog was a rescued Boxer, Ruben. My first proper puppy was a Pug, Dexter, then we rescued Alfie another Pug at the same age as Dexter (around 4yrs.) My house sitting and pet experience was living in an annexe above my landladys garage. She had a working cocker, Zeva. She'd trust me with looking after her house and Zeva while she had to go away for work or on holiday. That was over 2yrs of me living there. I even took Zeva away with my boyfriend and I as we went to Bournemouth for a weekend I was looking after her. We got a pet friendly accomodation and she had the best time on the beach and in the sea playing with her ball. I work 3 days a week, so have plenty of time for sitting and walking pets. I like to walk daily, so dog walking is well suited with my lifestyle. I care for pets in an owners home by communicating with the owners in the first instance to see what responsibilities they expect of their sitter to make sure their animals are in perfect care.

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 West Devon 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!

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.
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.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
