About: As a child, I never had a dog or cat of my own, despite begging my parents. So, I made up for it by walking my friends’ dogs as I loved animals. My mum then got a greyhound six years ago, and he was the best thing to happen to our family, so I spent my days looking after him. I wish to continue to do so in any way I can, whether it be dog walking or sleepovers. I am more than happy to help. I look forward to seeing the adventures your furry friend and I will go on, whether that be a local walk or taking your dog to the national park local to me. I am really looking forward to hearing from you! - Marina I currently working hybrid/remote from home so I’ll have plenty of time to look after your lovely pets! I have every weekend off too (: I can take your dog for local walks or i can take your dog to Loch Lomond or Balloch castle which is perfect for dog walking, your dog can wander around, play and swim too (: I will always create a route tailored to your dogs needs and abilities. At home, your pet will be allowed to wander the house freely. We have a good back and front garden where they can play and go out whenever they’d like.
“What a great experience Archie had. He absolutely loved his time with Gianna. She took great care of him with great walks and playtime, so much so he slept the rest of the day 😆. Can’t wait to use Gianna again for his care. Highly recommended.”
“Ann is great with Willow. She really shows she cares and gets to know your pet. We really appreciate her flexibility and the regular updates through the day are very reassuring. We received lots of pics and could see Willow was having fun. We will definitely book with Ann again.”
“Just brilliant. Michaela agreed to meet up prior to the booking so we could introduce our dog to her which was great. She was also very flexible with our drop off and collection time which made the whole booking really stress free. Will certainly be booking with Michaela again 👍”
“Deryn and her partner were fantastic with Tess. They looked after her for the day and made her feel completely at home. We picked up a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. They were friendly, caring and clearly love dogs. We’d have no hesitation in leaving Tess with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable dog sitters. Thanks guys!”
“Orla and Aine were fantastic with our little border terrier, they really took the time to listen and learn about his needs and he absolutely loved his stay there... every time we walk past the flat he is pulling to go in!! Highly recommend”
“Natalie has treated our wee dog like he was her own. He is so terribly anxious, and Natalie totally understood this and based on the photos he clearly calmed and felt very comfortable and happy with her. Would absolutely definitely book Natalie again and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others. Thank you so much Natalie”
“Moira & Rory regularly look after our Cavapoo Lenny and we are so happy and thankful to have met them. We moved our little dog with us when we moved to Scotland and it was so important that we found someone who we could trust. Lenny absolutely adores Moira & Rory and it is considered his second home. He skips straight in the door and we know he’s in great care. We get regular updates and know that both Moira & Rory love our little guy just as much as we do and we can trust them completely. Couldn’t recommend them more!”
“Both dogs had a lovely time with Koko, Yoyo and the kids. One almost didn’t want to come home and both were sleeping on the drive back home. Kept us up to date with all comings and goings and took great care of them Will definitely be coming back!”
“Lisa took care of Charlie Brown at short notice and was lovely. Charlie seemed to love being there as the second day he walked up to the door joyfully knowing where he was going to. Pics and updates along the way. Fabulous to see Charlie content in Daycare with Lisa. Highly Recommended 5 *****”
“Kiera was so great with Lola! Lola can be a little high maintenance due to her complex needs so it’s always a worry leaving her, but Kiera was so reassuring before by meeting up and then sending me updates. Lola was even relaxed enough to eat which she doesn’t always do when away from home. Lola was so chilled the rest of the night after I picked her up so knew she had a great day. Would absolutely recommend Kiera! Thanks so much again! 💕”
“Freddie absolutely loved his stay with Amy! And was pulling to go back to her the second day! He seemed so happy to be there. ☺️ if we are In Glasgow again we would definitely book again! As we aren’t local to the area she will really helpful when it came to questions about parking etc too . Thank you so much!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later collection to match your West Dunbartonshire commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust collection and drop-off times when needed.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's lead and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalised care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog's vaccines is the best way to be 'boarding ready'. Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Sitters in Scotland may request that your dog be up-to-date on core vaccines, such as Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus, Canine Adenovirus (also known as DHP or DHPPi), Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough. Cats may be required to have Feline Panleucopenia Virus, Feline Herpesvirus, Feline Calicivirus, and Feline Leukaemia Virus up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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 .
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.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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 dog, 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.
We require sitters to operate in compliance with applicable local licensing requirements. In England, pet sitters who board dogs or provide doggy day care as a business may need a valid licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) Regulations 2018. When vetting your sitter, ask if they meet local licensing requirements for dog boarding. This confirmation is important for coverage under the Rover Guarantee.
