“Rachel looked after my cat for a couple of days and did a brilliant job of keeping her well fed and happy having sent photo updates with each visit and also spent time playing with her. Highly recommend trusting Rachel with your wee furry friend! 🤍”
“Dannii provided a reliable and professional service for our 7 month old kitten Rosie. She visited us to meet Rosie and we showed her where everything would be in terms of food/cat litter supplies. We booked Dannii for 8 visits in total, she is is quick to respond to messages and as first time users of "Cat in a Flat" we enjoyed the report cards of each visit where she wrote about Rosie and added new pictures from each visit. Dannii provided an excellent service to Rosie and cared and played with her at each visit. When we returned home Rosie was her usual happy, relaxed and playful self which we feel is a strong sign of the excellent care she received from Dannii. We would highly recommend Dannii and we would book her for cat sitting again in the future.”
About: Ever since I was younger I have helped walk and look after family and friends pets. Ive also helped to train some of these animals. Ive got an NC and a HNC in animal care. I'm also a RVN. I am confident in walking all sizes and breeds of dogs. I am also able to administer medications I work full time at a veterinary practice. I have Tuesdays, most Saturdays as well as all Sundays off. I can be quite flexible during weekends for doing both walks and visits. I may also be able to do some evenings. I am happy to try and work around my schedule. I will listen to the owners instructions and the needs for their pets. If house cats I will make sure they will be still in the home before I leave. For dogs I will cater walks to their needs and energy requirements.
“Absolutely delighted with Carol, we met up before I went away on holiday for 10 days and got on really well, . Whilst away Carol updated me with txs, photos and videos ,easing my anxiety of leaving Marley .Carol stayed overnight, house was spotless on my return.

“Jamie looked after our 5 babies to an exceptionally high standard and went above and beyond to make sure all their individual needs where met whilst away along with daily updates and brilliant communication. Our cats had taken a liking to Jamie quite quickly showing he has a very kind nature. Our home was looked after and respected also showing high levels of trust. Would highly recommend and use his services again if required.”
About: Hi I am Frances, anyone that spends five minutes in my company will tell you that I love all animals but especially Dogs, I feel as though they are just beautiful, caring, compassionate, clever and all round awesome beings that we don't deserve. Can't help but smile when in their company, Living their best life every day in the moment. No coincidence that their name is God backwards. I have had 2 dogs of my own in the past who I consider to be my family and am at a loss without my Son at the moment. I babysit for my friends Dogs if they have commitments elsewhere and consider it a privilege to do so. You don't have to own a dog to be my friend, but it helps :). Rest assured your fur babies are spoiled with me and we have fun playing, and chilling in between the adventure walks with lot's of Pink Panther sniffing / investigating to be done as well as special treat sausages from the Local Butchers with your permission of course. I have recently returned from Rwanda and Uganda where I had an amazing experience trekking in the National Forest Park to see the mighty Silverback Gorilla and his family. I have also travelled to Borneo where I volunteered at an Orangutan Sanctuary ( Jungle School - on Netflix ) and have also volunteered with the SSPCA in the past too. It would be an absolute pleasure to look after your furry family member and would be awesome to be their honorary Auntie and included in their pack. I currently work from home Monday and Friday from 8.30 to 3.30 and in the office on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8.30 to 4.30. I am therefore able to look after your Fur babies for long weekends Fri to Mon easily fitting in with their own specific schedules. I am hoping to be able to make this a full time job in the future, as it would be a dream come true to be able to care for your pets and be paid to do so?! In an ideal world I would have won the lottery and I would pay you for the privilege of your babies company. I have a private fenced garden that allows security and safety for your pet to be able to go out for fresh air throughout the day in between the bigger walks - minimum of an hour of sniffing if allowed. Your pet will be allowed up on the couch and bed with fluffy blankets for comfort if allowed only, as I would not allow if not the norm for pet. All their requirements will be adhered and catered for, so as not to disrupt their usual routine.
About: Over the years I have had 6 cats, 2 dogs, hamsters, parrots and fish so I have always had a love for animals! I have plenty of experience in caring for them and know what they need. I have had pets who have had ongoing medical needs including regular medicine. I’m the go-to contact for friends and family when they need someone to pet-sit! My partner, Huzaifah, will be helping take care of your pet. He’s an animal lover and has looked after cats, dogs, ferrets, fish, and iguana and a tortoise. I work part time and my partner, who also adores animals, works full time from home so your pet will always have company! We don’t work weekends or bank holidays. We currently have 2 gerbils in a cage in our spacious upper cottage flat with an unfenced garden. The gerbils are elevated so there shouldn’t be any issues, they love the company of other animals!
About: Friendly cat sitter, have my own cat poppy. So understand their behaviour and will give them the love and care they need when you are not there. Whether that be just being there for company and feeding or for the more social cats that need cuddles. I work part time while kids are at school so have spare time in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. Some weekend availability. Can always try to accommodate. All care needs will be done as required or asked by pet owners. I will do my best to make all pets feel safe and loved while owners are not there.
About: I’ve always had pets in my life, so being around animals is something I’ve grown up with and genuinely love. I’ve regularly looked after family and friends’ pets over the years, from feeding and walking them to making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime and cuddles. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I’ll always treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and get to know their individual personalities, whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer a quiet cuddle on the sofa! I’m available all day Thursday–Saturday, and before 9am or after 6pm Sunday–Wednesday. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get plenty of care, attention and cuddles. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and little messages, so you know they’re happy and well looked after while you’re away! I only offer pet care in the pet owner’s home and do not offer boarding or house sitting at my own home. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own, following their usual routines and any specific instructions you leave me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and well cared for.
About: We understand that leaving your dog with someone else is a big decision, which is why we're committed to providing a safe, loving, and relaxed home-from-home environment for every dog in our care. Over the years, we've cared for a wide variety of family pets and have hands-on experience with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs. Alongside owning pets ourselves, we've looked after a range of dog breeds, as well as cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even a tortoise. My wife, Kirsty, also works in a pet shop, where she has gained valuable experience caring for and advising on the wellbeing of many different animals. To give you even greater peace of mind, I am certified in Canine First Aid and CPR, ensuring I'm prepared to respond quickly and appropriately should an emergency ever arise. We know that every dog is unique, so we'll always take the time to understand their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, plenty of playtime, or simply relaxing with lots of fuss and cuddles, we'll make sure they feel happy, secure, and part of the family throughout their stay. Pet sitting fits naturally into our routine, allowing us to dedicate quality time and attention to every pet in our care. As I work Monday to Friday during term time, we primarily offer weekend pet care, making us an ideal choice for weekend breaks, weddings, family visits, and short getaways. We also have additional availability during school holidays and selected weekdays throughout the year. When your pet stays with us, they'll be welcomed into our home and cared for as if they were one of our own. We'll take the time to follow their usual routine, provide plenty of love, enrichment, exercise, and cuddles, and ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and wellbeing are always our highest priorities. Our home is pet-free, allowing us to give your pet our full attention and providing a calm environment without the added stress that some animals can experience when meeting unfamiliar pets. We're fortunate to live close to plenty of green spaces and scenic walking routes, giving dogs lots of opportunities for enjoyable walks, exercise, mental stimulation, and play in a safe environment. Whether your pet enjoys energetic adventures or a slower-paced stroll with plenty of sniffing, we'll tailor their walks to suit their individual needs and routine. Inside our home, your pet will have a clean, comfortable, and welcoming space where they can relax, feel secure, and enjoy plenty of love and attention throughout their stay.
About: I am a 3rd year Veterinary student looking to make a little money on the side while i’m in university. I have been looking after dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks, pet birds, sheep and goats for 15 years. I have taken care of pets with specific medical conditions and other medical needs. I can care for your pets in my parent’s home or your home. I have a very flexible schedule due studying at university and to using Rover as my sole job for the school year. I am available during the week and weekends. As a vet student, I provide attentive, compassionate, and safety-focused care tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. In both my home and my clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining a pet’s normal schedule, including feeding, exercise, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In my veterinary education I have learned how to handle certain pet behavior, training, keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own.
About: Having gained a level 2 and 3 in animal care and management, and then a BSc (Hons) in Animal behaviour and welfare, I have worked with various species of animals from cats and dogs to horses, sheep, pigs, bearded dragons, geckos, and multiple aquatic animals of the like. I have been an animal management and care specialist for a HE college, then moved to a veterinary specialist hospital as a technician. I have now turned to human nursing post covid. I currently work as a nurse, from 0830 till 5 pm Monday to Friday, I am free nearly every weekend. I am more than happy to have your furry child over night or to look in on them after work or on weekends. Having an open-plan flat, the rooms are filled with natural light; CCTV will be an option, but daily updates will be included as standard. I will insist on password pickup (you and I agree on a secret password if someone other than the person who drops them off is picking them up). If visiting your home, I will be wearing body-worn CCTV and will text or video chat during my visit to ensure that you are aware that I have attended to your goodest boy/girl.
About: I have a cat and a dog as well as frequently dog sitting for family and friends. I have cared for a variety of animals; ranging from a puppy to a senior cat and also two large labradoodles. I would say that i am very good at understanding cat and dog language as I have made a point to teach myself. I love playing with pets as-well as offering them lots of cuddles! I am currently in university for social work. I am in class on Tuesday and a half day on the Thursday. Other than that, i am usually at home with my cat and dog. I probably see my cat more than anyone haha. I ensure that the animals are comfortable and receive my full attention. I think it is important to understand animals specific behaviours and needs to understand how to care for them.
“I would totally recommend Jessica to look after your pet while you’re away. She was kind, friendly and helpful and great at keeping us up to date with how Suki was getting on. Thanks Jessica x”
About: Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 23, a recent Master's graduate who loves running, hill-walking and a cosy movie-night. So, no matter your pet's temperament, I can meet them where they're at! I have had two cats and two dogs growing up, and have spent the last 16 years pet-sitting for neighbours and friends. Having moved away from home, I am absolutely missing having some pets around and so am more than happy to spoil yours! Having had both of my dogs since they were puppies, I have taken part in several puppy-training classes and even managed to get our spaniel to have some decent recall! As I am working from home, I can take pets out for bathroom breaks frequently throughout the day, and am available for ad-hoc calls. I live in a large ground-floor flat, a short walk to Victoria Park and so am happy to spend time throwing a ball around. I have a fenced garden, a smoke-free home and plenty of space for your pet to roam around. We also have a spare bedroom and so if your pet prefers a bit of space, they can chill out on their own terms.
About: Along with taking care of my family dog for over 10 years, I have just completed my veterinarian degree. As I wait to find a job, I would love to spend my extra time with your furry friends, whether that is on a walk, playing inside, or cuddling up on the couch. Currently job hunting, so very flexible to do that anywhere. Whether after going on a walk with your dog, or while cuddling your cat, my hours are flexible. I think it is essential to make sure that your dog gets time outside (if you agree) whether it's a walk down the road, playing in your backyard or going somewhere in the woods. I make it a priority to make sure I give dogs and cats plently of fun stimulation while sitting. In addition, when I am with your pet they have my full attention. I love cuddles or playing with toys and I most definitely talk to them as if they are a human hanging out with me:)
About: Family and friends have asked me to look after walk cats and dogs, I always loved doing this as it gets me out and any cat or dog I meet I love instantly. I am currently volunteering at oxfam once a week on tuesday and more than happy to pop in and check or sit with your cats or dogs. I love going on walks so I am happy to walk dogs I am happy to work around your schedule I always ask more questions than needed about your pets to make sure they safe and looked after. What matters to me most is that the animal are looked after and feel safe and secure

Heather was great with my cat and such a lovely friendly presence for us both, I felt reassured upon meeting her that she would be capable of caring for Mymble while I was on holiday. Heather gave me daily updates with pics or video of Mymble from her visits and it was great to see Mymble looking happy and warming up to Heather. Heather took care to follow my instructions for my cat's feeding and her medication and she took care to keep the pet areas clean during her visits. Mymble and I would be delighted to rebook Heather when we need a pet sitter again!
We had a fantastic experience! Annalise is wonderful, friendly and courteous. I was naturally worried as it was our first time having to leave them but we could not have been put more at ease with the professional manner of Annalise. Thank you so much! Highly Recommend - 5 Star Service. Louise, Astro & Daisy x

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Dunbartonshire on Rover is £16 per Visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £12 and £21 per Visit.
sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 687 sitters on Rover for Cat Sitting in West Dunbartonshire. About 92% of West Dunbartonshire 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 occurred. 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 must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three- or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-in visits, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12.00 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our booking protection will kick in. This means you'll get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
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.
