Robyn was an absolute star! We loved getting pictures and updates, being kept in the loop about anything happening with our girls. We were also so impressed by how thoughtful and conscientious she is. Our girls have a way of tossing litter about the place and, before using the hoover, Robyn got in touch to ask if the girls were afraid of the hoover at all so she could adjust accordingly. Our girls loved her, too. The first few photos we received from Robyn were of our girls cuddling with her - they don’t cuddle with just anyone! Can’t recommend her enough and we’re so grateful to have had her watching our wee ones.

Jennifer was fantastic. Met up for a meet and greet before the house sitting, and on the day she was great with Ollie giving me update and pictures out on his walks with her! 10/10 highly recommend Jennifer.

Chloe is a brilliant petsitter. Our Luna has a lot of needs (meds 3x a day, eating every 5 hours) and Chloe didn’t blink. Luna was calm and happy after a week with her - a big deal as she’s anxious when we’re away! And Chloe went above and beyond in leaving the house as clean or cleaner than when she arrived. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend booking in with Chloe! Piper is a rescue and can be a bit anxious at first but as soon as I met Chloe I knew I could trust her to look after Piper! I got regular updates and photos from Chloe which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that my dog was not only well cared for but genuinely happy and comfortable. If you’re looking for someone to look after your dog, I can’t recommend Chloe enough! I’ll definitely be booking again!

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: I started petsitting when I was 11 and i’m very passionate about taking care and giving the best care possible for your pets! I have 3 pets of my own and have had a dog since i was 5 so i’m very experienced with animals and my other dog has behavioural issues so i’m well trained with that too. I currently don’t drive but I will be starting lessons soon! i’m enthusiastic and will do exactly as instructed to keep you and your furry friends happy. I’m not working at the moment so i’m free from August 1st onwards as I have other bookings until the 31st, I get the bus so times can be a little funny but I always make it work! When I care for pets in the owner’s home, I focus on creating a safe and familiar environment for them. I follow the pet’s usual routine, feeding, walks, and play, so they stay comfortable. Trust is key, so I keep owners updated and ensure their home is respected and secure. My presence gives both the pets and the owners peace of mind.

About: I currently own two working breeds between the ages of 2 and 5 years old. I have grown up around a range of breeds throughout my life from Lhasa apsos to bullmastiffs so I am eager to care for any breed, in my opinion the bigger dog the better. I have previously owned a reactive collie so I have experience of caring for dogs with more complex needs and I am happy to accommodate to any of their needs. One of my current dogs is a long haired breed and I am happy to keep up with any grooming requirements as I understand the importance of this. With owning two working breeds I am familiar with several types of enrichment to help keep them entertained and get their brains working. Although I have no experience in pet sitting officially as described above I have 5 years experiencing owning dogs. I typically will only be available on weekends however some exceptions could be made for weekday care. I am currently working full time and I am available for house sitting mostly on the weekends., with some exceptions for weekdays dependant on the location. I am available for morning/evening walks during the week again dependant on the location. I am happy to take your dog to nearby open spaces or enclosed fields to meet their needs (at no extra cost), I have my own car and ensure to appropriate after methods such as a seatbelt or crate when travelling with my own dogs which would be extended to your animals to ensure their safety. I have experience with a reactive collie and I am happy to do anything required to meet your reactive dogs needs and safety to ensure their upmost comfort for them.

Dylan has taken amazing care of my wee pup Phoenix🐶 Couldn’t be happier! He has been an absolute angel to have over, and was so good at sending updates, pictures and videos ❤️My wee pup usually takes a few days to calm down when I leave, and will usually just be grumpy, but he loved Dylan straight away which has never happened before! From here on I will only be contacting Dylan if I need someone to pup-sit, and couldn’t recommend him enough!!!🙏🏻🐶❤️

About: I have been around dogs all of my life. I am currently the guardian of two dogs and absolutely love spending as much of my day as possible with them. We take long walks across the glennifer braes, road trips to the beach and strolls ans ball throws in the local parks. We are constantly training- sometimes the boys forget their manners, so we are always practicing!! I have raised Marlo from being a puppy whilst flash is adopted so have experience around dogs of all ages and backgrounds. Our household has four years experience also in Epilepsy management. The care of flash can be quite complex- he’s on a strict medication and food routine to help manage his seizures. Growing up the dogs in my life have been German shepherds, Irish setter, border collie, Lhasapso, Labradors, Retrievers, patterdale terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier and of course mungrels. So far and having just started my business I have cared for little fudge who is a french bulldog and a little angel 😇. We had him overnight on a couple of occasions and during the day for walkies a few days also. He fit right in once I got him to calm down 😂 purely excited to be with us he was. I have also had the beautiful and soft natured Belle who's a retired racing greyhound. She immediately lay down like she was at home and bonded with flash who has the same energy as her. She walked perfectly and proudly around with the pack and was just another angel 😇. I have currently a home boarding booked in a with a little lhasaapsu cross who we will go meet first for a we walk and get to know each other. We are really excited about this😊. Finally I would say that my experience with dogs is an extensive one, in life, I have bonded with every dog I have come across (annoyingly for some) I have cared for dogs of all sizes and nature and intelligence! As a business my experience is relatively new as I only ever cared for dogs for enjoyment. Now it's my job and life. I'm a natural with dogs and I'm also training daily by taking on K9 college courses expanding my knowledge as much as possible. Most recently I completed the K9 first aid course and am now qualified in this. Next course I plan on will be a practical one also allowing me to work with my dogs and better my abilities. I work 5 day a week from 5am to 9am so that caring for dogs can be my main focus. My work days do vary but the work times are very static. Im currently studying in a K9 college, expanding my knowledge of dogs in all aspects. My course is flexible and fits around my personal daily doggy routine😍. I am very flexible for times that I can care for other peoples fur babies, and as such can dedicate myself to give the best care possible as and when required by you and your family members. At home I have a secure garden at the back with large grass area for the dogs. Pets have free run of the inside of my home. I can however crate if required in both my own home and your home. I am very proud to be Canine first aid trained and have first hand experience of dealing with sick, old, vulnerable and complicated dogs. I am currently studying at a renowned K9 college to better my knowledge of dogs in every aspect I can. Between me and my partner we have four years of K9 epilepsy management where we are able to administer daily medication for dogs, orally or injection. In worst case scenario we both can administer emergency medication as per instruction. We have a loving home with great vibes for all dogs big and small. We live on the outskirts of paisley right on the countryside border line where we are literally a 5 minute walk to miles of open Greenland and umpteen different walks to choose from. We have a child free household which only means your dog gets %💯% attention and love they deserve.

Angela did a fabulous job looking after our energetic pup Archie whilst we were both away for a week. She gave him all of his favourite things - plenty of walks, treats and attention. We got regular updates which helped us feel reassured. We would definitely book Angela again

About: Hey! I’m Christina, an experienced pet owner and sitter. I’ve had a love for animals since I can remember, and have grown up around many dogs, cats, even some chickens and ducks! I aim to treat your pet like I would my own, whether that’s on a drop in visit, a walk or a longer pet sit. I’ll make sure all their needs are met whether that’s walking for hours to burn energy, playing with toys or games to keep their brains stimulated or simply cuddling up on the sofa in front of the telly. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, from your teacup yorkies to your Great Danes, I’m happy to provide as much exercise as needed and cater my services as required. I’m also a clean and tidy house sitter, happy to keep on top of your plants and anything else you might need cared for other than your pet while you’re away. I’m as happy in a central flat as a rural cottage, no house sit is a problem for me. I also have a clean PVG, and can provide testimonials from previous sits off site. Please don’t hesistate to send me a message with any questions, hope to hear from you and your perfect pet soon! Pet sitting & care is my full time job, outside of some flexible volunteering, so I’m available through the week and outside of sociable hours. I’m happy to take bookings at short notice providing I’m available, and to travel reasonable distances to provide services. I drive so have no problem accessing more rural locations. I care for pets in their own house, so I know that it’s them that rules the roost! I’ll work with you as the owner to ensure I know their routine, their likes and dislikes, any wee quirks they might have, to provide the most tailored service for your pet. Whether it’s walking a favourite route, ensuring they always have their favourite toy to hand, preparing a perfect dinner for special diets, nothing is too much for me to cater for. I’m also happy to do as many meet and greets as needed for you and your pet to feel comfortable before commencing any services.

About: I've never personally owned a dog but I spent and still do spend almost every day at my grandparents house where they have always had at least one dog, currently, they have 2 and I've had to care for them on my own many times. I start college at the end of August but I have pretty much every single day of the summer free to care for your dog/dogs. As I care for my grandparents dogs, I'll describe their home instead of mine. I let them sit up on the couch and in bed, I feed them twice a day and walk them 3 times and have no trouble letting them out at any point, should they need it.

FAQs for House Sitting - West Dunbartonshire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in West Dunbartonshire on Rover is £27.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 955 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Dunbartonshire. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 West Dunbartonshire 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 West Dunbartonshire 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.
