“Max, my red fox Labrador, has stayed with Marlena for 10 whole days whilst I was on holiday. I have had so many photos and videos showing that he is really had the best time of his life. Loads of walks, and loads of love. Highly recommend. Thank you Marlena. We will definitely see you soon. Xxx”
“Marina took great care of Enzo. He was well looked after, got taken on many walks and he looked so settled when he was with her. Marina sent us daily updates when she looked after him which put our mind at ease whilst we were away :)”
“I cannot recommend Susan enough. She looked after Ollie for a few days while I moved house and he had the best time. He was looked after so well and I was kept updated regularly which helped me because I have never left him anywhere before. I will definitely be rebooting woth Susan again in the future.”
“Julie was amazing from beginning to the end of Reggie’s stay. She took into account his breed and needs during a really hot spell in the UK, keeping us up to date on his wellbeing. I would recommend her in a heartbeat”
“Brian the Fox Terrier was very happy with his first stay with Georgiana and family. He was bouncing with energy and wagging his tail all evening, a sure sign of his having a good time. Georgiana’s communication was swift and helpful as well as updated on how he was doing. A great success”
“If there were a “World’s Best Dog Sitter” Olympics, she wouldn’t just win the gold medal—she’d invent a new platinum one and win that too. She didn’t just take care of our Luna; she treated her like royalty. Long walks? Check. Gourmet feeding service? Check. Endless playtime, treats, belly rubs, and yes… even sleepovers in bed? Absolutely. Every single day, we got updates and photos where Luna looked like the happiest dog in the entire world—so happy we started to suspect she might be writing to us, “Please don’t hurry home.” She went above and beyond in every possible way, doing more than we would have ever dared to ask. This wasn’t just pet sitting—this was a full-on VIP canine resort experience. If you’re lucky enough to book her, your dog might love her so much they’ll send you a postcard saying, “Don’t rush back.””
“Holly and her family were a lifesaver, I can't thank them enough for looking after Isla with all her extra needs. They are so caring, Isla came home happy and exhausted, which is always a good sign. If every I am over that way again, I would definitely book Isla in again. Can't recommend them enough. Thank you again Holly x”
“We were concerned leaving Bailey as he does suffer with separations anxiety. We need not have worried as he was well looked after and enjoyed his stay with Gergerly & Kittie and we would not hesitate to use them again. Lovely couple and Cheddar their dog got on well with Bailey as well. We would highly recommend.”
“Willsome loved staying with Irene, she was amazing and looked after him perfectly, loads of walks and great communications with photos and video's which really helped alleviate our worries what with this being Wlillsome's first time staying away from us. will definitely use again if in the area, and would recommend Irene to wholeheartedly to anyone thinking of leaving there dog with her.”
About: We have looked after family & friends dogs (big & small) over the past 3 years. We are now ready to open our home to others who need a holiday home whilst their owners are away. Carl, Joshua & I would like to thank you for considering us to take care of your pet. We will treat them as if they are our own. I work part time from home as an administrator & have plenty of time to have a furry friend to keep me company. We are available from 4pm Monday-Sunday (Subject to availability) We have a beautiful 1650s corner property with a 1/4 acre private garden. Whilst it’s not a fully fenced garden the unfenced area is lined with hedges, bushes, a brook & then a lake. We will follow any current routines your dog already knows and loves to help keep as much of a normality as possible for them whilst in our care. Our home will only be open to one owners dog(s) at a time to ensure safety.
About: I've been taking care of pets of close family members for 5 years.They usually stayed with me while the owners are in holiday.I usually take the dog on walk at least 3 times I'm currently working part time at a local coffee shop. I'm looking to devote some of my free time to taking care of some wonderful dogs. I have access to a large garden and I also live close to a local nature reserve which is ideal for long walks and training exercises.
“Following our initial meet and greet we knew Pickle would be well cared for by Kim and her family. Kim provided regular updates, photos and videos which showed a very happy Pickle being spoilt for attention and clearly very settled. We would definitely recommend Kim to look after your furbabies.”
“Rory stayed with Sheila and family for just over 7 days. They kept me updated with how Rory was getting on, sharing pics and video of him playing & settling well with their dog Hugo too. Was taken on plenty of walks and kept active. Rory slept cuddled up next to me all evening when returned home, so he clearly had a good time. Thanks again Sheila & Pete and i appreciated the short notice booking that you kindly accommodated for.👍😎👍”
“Rebecca is an outstanding dogsitter, great communication, flexibility and Billy had lots of long walks which are his favourite. Very well looked after! I will definitely be asking Rebecca to board Billy again.”
“Debbie and Tom were so lovely and made me feel very confident that Gracie was in good hands. She can be a bit anxious and they definitely took that into account. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Debbie, she always replied to messages and even sent some photos whilst I was away. Thanks so much to you all. X”
About: Hi! I’m a dog lover with a warm, relaxed and loving home-from-home for your dog! I work from home, so I’m around all day, every day, to give your dog lots of company, attention and cuddles. I know how important it is for dogs to feel settled and comfortable when their humans are away, so I ensure to make their stay feel as much like home as possible! I have my own dog that goes to doggy day care sometimes if I'm on holiday so I completely understand. The back door is open throughout the day, giving dogs free access to an enclosed grassy garden. They can come and go as they like! In my house, dogs are part of the family. They’re welcome on the furniture including sofas and the bed, and there will be lots of cuddles and fuss. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, medication and any little habits. Every dog is different, and I’ll always take the time to understand what makes your dog feel safe and happy. While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see your pup enjoying their holiday too. 📸❤️ If you’re looking for a loving, relaxed and genuinely dog-friendly home where your dog won’t be left alone all day, I’d love to welcome them! 🐾 I work completely from home Monday - Friday. I work from the living room so dogs can snuggle up to me while I work! I tend to take my dog Frankie for a walk around midday for about 45 minutes or so but I can be flexible with this if you need longer/shorter or broken up differently, let me know! 😊 The garden is completed enclosed, no little gaps or anything (trust me my little sausage dog would have found any if there were!). Lots of grass and also a little patio area. Tend to leave the back door open all day most months of the year so dogs can come and go as they like for toilet breaks and exploring. Lots of sofa cuddles!
“Victoria looked after Pam, our 2 year old King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, and really went the extra mile to make sure she felt safe during her stay (she sometimes can be a little submissive/nervous around other dogs). We got some lovely pictures and updates on how Pam was doing over the long weekend and would definitely use Victoria again 😊”
“This was the first time our 1 year old cocker spaniel had stayed with Joanna. Joanna was very welcoming and loving towards her and she bonded well. Joanna was sensitive to her needs in the heat and cared for her very well. We look forward to future stays”

“Niamh looked after Orlando so well, she took time to get to know Orlando & sent us great updates showing Orlando playing with her favourite toys & looking happy. We have already booked Niamh again! Highly recommend.”
“I would definitely recommend Johanna! She looked after my cat Willow whilst we were away and she was great! Johanna sent me photos abd kept me updated on how Willow was. I was able to relax and enjoy my break!”
“We were a bit worried about the thought of leaving Shadow, as she's only 6 months old and she'd had a small op a few weeks earlier. We absolutely needn't have worried! I'm so glad we found Rhianna - she was totally brilliant with Shadow, sending us updates with loads of photos every day. Shadow seems to have had a great time! Rhianna even liaised with our vet, just to make sure Shadow was healing properly after her op. Thanks Rhianna, Shadow's looking forward to seeing you again, next time we're away :)”
“Kim was great when looking after my cat whilst I was away. She came for a meet and greet beforehand to confirm requirements and meet my cat, and then sent photos whilst I was away. Will be using her again next time I go away! ”
“Maisie has yet again done an excellent job. She and Joe have always been our go to persons when we need somebody to look after our Dusty. We could not have anyone different to do so. Dusty is so happy under their care. Thank you Maisie and Joe for the constant updates and most of all for the care you give to Dusty. 🥰”
“Emily did a fab job looking after Mickey, he's not the easiest cat being quite particular but she was brilliant with him! He took a real shine to her and I think was on his best behaviour... thank you so, so much Emily - you're a star! 🥰😃”
“Alex has been the most incredible cat sitter for us. We put in a request for an emergency sitting and they have been so kind and diligent. We couldn’t have asked for a kinder and more compassionate sitter for our cat at such short notice. Alex sent continuous updates (which were greatly appreciated) and has been amazing overall. Couldn’t ask for anyone better! Will 100% be requesting Alex’s services again in the future, thank you Alex!”
“Couldn’t be happier with the care our cats had whilst we were away. Returned to both of them content and relaxed. It was great to receive photos whilst away and it was clear she got to know both of the cats well by the end of the week. Thank you so much x”
“Sarah looked after Maverick, our Ragdoll, while we were away and I couldn't have asked for more. She sent daily photos and updates without being prompted, kept his feeding routine exactly as we'd left it, and clearly spent proper time with him. The house was left tidy, litter tray spotless, and she flagged one small thing she'd noticed without any fuss. Reliable, communicative, and obviously a cat person. We'll be booking her again and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Sapna was very reliable and communicative during her time cat sitting for our boy. The quality of her updates reassured us there was no problems and we returned to find Morgy happy and relaxed and no problems at home. Sapna is a warm, friendly and trustworthy person. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or request her service again. Thank you! ”
“I don’t think 5* is high enough, I cannot recommend Laura more. I felt super comfortable having Laura in my home, Sabrina clearly took to her and I can’t wait to book her again! Thank you!!🩷”
“Our rescue dog was well looked after by Marina. Great communication, and kept us informed of how our dog was during her care, great for our peace of mind. Very happy to recommend 🐾”
About: Hello! I'm Vee, I've owned cats for most of my life and volunteer doing animal socialisation for the RSPCA. I've been part of a petsitting team for over 10 years, doing feed & play visits in London, Worcestershire, and Vienna. I love cats of all kinds, and am a dab hand at reading their mood, understanding what they need, and sticking to their routines. I currently petsit for a house with a bird and snake, and I've had experience with guinea pigs, so I'm very comfortable with smaller pets too!
“Sam was a godsend this Christmas after difficulties finding someone to look after Aggie over the holiday period. Sam was available to feed and water and replace cat litter and did so cheerfully despite being hissed at once or twice! The daily reports and photos were all very reassuring and I returned to find Aggie in perfect health. Highly recommend and hope she will be available in future.”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and grew up with a cat of my own. I’d love to look after your furry friend and give them all the care, attention and cuddles they need while you’re away! I’m reliable, caring and will treat your cat as if they were my own. 🐾❤️
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for cats. I currently have two of my own, Simby and Nala, who are both a big part of my life. Caring for them has given me a good understanding of the different personalities cats can have and the importance of letting them feel comfortable in their own environment. I’m happy to provide everything your cat needs while you’re away, including feeding, fresh water, litter tray changes, playtime, grooming and plenty of attention and fuss. I’m also more than happy to give a cat their own space if they’re shy or prefer to keep their distance. I understand that cats can be creatures of routine, so I’ll follow your usual instructions and make sure their normal routine is disrupted as little as possible. I’ll also keep you updated during visits with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe and being well cared for. Whether your cat is playful and demanding attention, nervous around new people, or perfectly content doing their own thing, I’ll take the time to get to know them and care for them according to their individual personality and needs. 🐾

“Absolutely incredible care, this was the first time Bernie was with someone who wasn't a family member and he loved every second of it, the picture updates sent made my day whilst I was stuck at work and he came home a very happy puppy, thank you so much for the love you showed to him 💕”
“Marina was flexible when we needed to arrive an hour later and Casper clearly had a lovely time with her. She sent very cute photos of them having a cuddle and Casper obviously had a good run during the day. Couldn’t have asked for more!”
“Another great review for Dany, after picking up Terry. I always have peace of mind whilst Terry is being looked after by Dany, as he can be reactive towards other dogs and D knows how to handle him. I love the bond between them and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dany to anyone, who clearly loves animals ❤️”
“Casper can be a bit nervous but Julie was wonderful, helped him settle and he had a great day playing in the garden & a walk, and has come home exhausted. Thank you so much.”
“Gergely is always very quick to respond and accommodate a booking at extremely short notice if available. . I have no hesitation in recommending. It’s lovely to know that while at work our dog Ziggy is safe and being treated as part of there family .”
“Holly has been amazing with my boy and I’ve absolutely loved the photos she sent, he looks so happy and he’s absolutely knackered from the walks and outdoor play. Thank you so much for looking after him and the feedback ❤️”
About: I’ve owned dogs all my life and currently have my own Golden Retriever, Cleo, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog. I have experience looking after dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs. I’m also comfortable giving medication when needed and following any specific instructions or routines your dog has. I like to make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, so long walks are guaranteed rather than just quick toilet breaks. I also have a large, fully fenced garden with access throughout the day, giving dogs plenty of space to run around, play or simply relax outside. I’m fairly flexible with dates and times and will always try to work around you and your dog’s routine. I’m also more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so you can meet me, Cleo and see where your dog will be staying. I think it’s important that everyone is comfortable and that the dogs are a good match. Most importantly, I treat every dog as an individual and want them to feel safe, settled and well looked after while they’re with me. Caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine as I already spend time each day looking after animals and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I’m able to plan my day around drop-in visits, which means I can make sure your cat is fed, comfortable, and given some company while you’re away. I’m happy to keep to your cat’s usual routine so everything feels as normal as possible for them. I also enjoy spending time with animals, so visits are never rushed and your cat will always receive patient and attentive care. When caring for cats in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning the litter box, and giving plenty of attention and gentle play. I pay close attention to each cat’s personality – whether they enjoy cuddles, toys, or quiet company – and adjust my approach to make them feel safe and relaxed. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can see that your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your pets routine
About: I've always owned a dog until recently but unfortunately I don't have a dog of my own at the moment. I have experience with a range of dog breeds having owned and dog sat: lurchers, poodle crosses, Rhodesian ridge backs, Labradors, rottweilers and mutts. No children or other dogs in the home. I regularly dog sit for friends and family. I have a large garden which is around an acre completely fenced. I work from home so I'm able to take dogs on regular walks. I work from home so always looking for company and an excuse to go on walks round the river! I travel internationally occasionally for work so I can't own my own dog but otherwise available 7 days a week I have a fully fenced 1 acre garden and no other dogs in the home. Lots of space in the house and I have a dog crate if preferred
“From first meeting both Susan and Stephen my mind was put at ease. Both are considerate and listened to understand Terry’s do's and dont's to make the stay a pleasurable for everyone. Kept me updated and provided photos throughout. Terry returned a very happy dog with his tail wagging, which says it all. Thank you both for being so accommodating and understanding to Terry's "pawticular" requirements. It is evident you're dog lovers and Terry is looking forward to his next stay with you 😀”
“Alisha agreed to look after my Sprocker Rolo at very short notice (late the evening prior for a 06:30 drop off) and was a life saver! Alisha was there waiting to greet us when I arrived - her house is lovely and she has a great garden and a friendly dog of her own to keep Rolo company. Alisha kept me updated throughout the day and sent lots of pics of my very happy pooch! She took him on 2 walks and filled in his care card online. You can tell she genuinely loves Dogs! She was super flexible too and said if I was back later than the alloceted time it would be fine which took the pressure off. I picked up a very happy Rolo who was shattered when he got home and gave me a peaceful night! Thanks Alisha for taking such good care of my boy - I would love you to have him again ❤️”
About: Calm, capable, and consistent. I show up on time, send one photo per visit, and trust my gut. I walk at the dog’s pace, not mine. I bag every poop, avoid hot pavement, and never force a scared dog. I choose patience over punishment, and when in doubt, I sit down and wait. I’m not just a walker or sitter — I’m the steady presence their dog trusts while they’re away. I work part-time, which means I have plenty of flexible hours throughout the day to give your pet proper attention — not rushed, not squeezed in. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities — always. I adapt to your pet's routine, not mine. Feeding times, walk schedules, bedtimes — I follow your script so your pet feels minimal disruption. I keep your home secure — doors locked, windows closed, alarms set exactly as you leave them. I'll send you a quick text whenever I arrive and leave. I'm tidy and respectful — I clean up after myself, wipe my feet, wash any bowls I use, and leave your space exactly as I found it (or tidier). No strangers — I never bring guests, friends, or other pets into your home. It's just me and your pet. Emergency-ready — I have your vet's number, your emergency contact, and a clear plan for accidents, escapes, or illness. I also carry a basic pet first aid kit in my bag.

“We booked Sarah to look after Beans as we were visiting the area for a wedding. Sarah was friendly and flexible, able to drop Beans back to our Air BnB so we didn't have to leave the wedding early. She took great care of Beans all day, we returned home to a calm and content little doggy! We got some lovely pudates of Beans enjoying her day with her new best pup pal.”
About: Having grown up with my own Boston Terrier, I’ve had many years experience feeding, caring for and walking dogs. I’ve also extended this experience through caring for my neighbours staffy and my boyfriends family dogs. Since moving away from my family home, I’ve missed giving love to a little doggo and am excited to offer personalised and extensive care to your own little loved ones. I’m very much into being in nature, going on runs and long walk and would love to take your dog along with me. Feel free to reach out if you think I fit your needs. I am currently working as a full-time primary school teacher, meaning I can offer my services in the afternoons (from 5), weekends and also during the school holiday. Having owned my own dog I know how integral trust can be and so I am happy to sit down and have a conversation before taking your dog out on walks. During boarding, I can offer a warm and welcoming home which has its own enclosed garden.
“Our dog Heddwyn is typical of a cockapoo who follows his mum everywhere. We wondered how he would react to being left with someone he did not know. He was taken for a walk after we left him and all was fine. We were sent some photos of the walk and once back at Debbie’s house. Heddwyn had clearly settled well. We will be absolutely happy for Debbie to look after Heddwyn again.”

About: I used to look after dogs in my previous home with my family. I now live in my own house and want to continue looking after pets. I love all dogs all sizes and all cats. My parents have 2 cats in the family home and have grown up with cats since I was born and look after theirs regularly too. I’m currently studying my masters at university where I only have lectures on a friday and play football some evenings and on a sunday. Other than that have a lot of free time at the minute 😅 I have a fenced garden. There are no other pets in my house. Space in the house for whatever things they need to be happy

“Danny saved the day when I was poorly and on short notice I booked him to walk Frankie, I received photos and videos of their walk and Frankie seemed to be very happy in his company 🤗”
“Trusting a stranger with your dog, personally for me , was quite an anxious experience. However, when Julie came round to visit Phoenix, I felt reassured and knew hundred percent that she was the one for Phoenix. Clearly, she has a love for dogs and from the communication I could tell that she had a lot of experience. Julie goes above and beyond and my dog loves going for walks with her. He has a great time and I can see this from the photos. I wouldn’t use anyone else.”
“Lottie and Leo had a great walk with Marina. Communication was excellent and very flexible in arranging a convenient time to collect a key. Would Recommend and use again. Thank you Marina”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 5 years old, within a family revolving around guide dogs. I’ve joined in with training guide dog puppies and taken many dog walks over the years. Now having moved away from home I miss the daily interaction with dogs! I work full time as a physiotherapist but have evenings and weekends free to care for your pets. I live with my partner who has an equal love for dogs and has more time on his hands, so would be keen to help out where needed! I live in a terraced house with a small garden in the centre of Worcester, a very short distance to the river, with many options nearby for areas for your pets to have a good run around!
About: Hi! I'm Alex, I run my own independent pet care services, and I'm thrilled to be providing my services here on Rover too! I've spent most of my life caring for animals, all of it adoring them, and for the last four years I've also been helping others with care for their pets. Currently I live with four pets, two of whom are medically complex, so I know how scary it can be entrusting your pet to somebody else. Every pet is unique, and I'll always do all I can to make you feel as reassured about their care as possible. I have experience administering medication, working with small mammals and reptiles, and caring for dogs with an array of different needs (including help with separation anxiety) among other things. I'm DBS checked, level 3 pet first aid certified, independently insured and I can provide as many references as you need in order to feel at ease. I offer solo and group dog walking, secure dog paddock enrichment hours, check-ins for cats, small mammals, small reptiles and dogs, and overnight and daytime pet sitting, and if you have a request that's not strictly one of those, I'd be more than happy to work something out with you. If you'd like to arrange a zero-obligation meet and greet or just have a chat to see if we'd be a good fit, please feel free to message me. A little about me - I grew up watching Animal Planet and reading nothing but animal rescue books, had guinea pigs for most of my childhood, and even now my social media is mostly dog training and animal rescue! You can rest assured your pet will kept safe, treated kindly and absolutely doted on in my care. (PS - tell your pet I said hi! ♥) Caring for animals fits seamlessly into my current routine, as I'm free most days and walking the dogs is always one of the highlights! I'm within walking distance of many great natural spaces, and taking your dog along for the adventure would fit in perfectly. Living with two medically complex pets means I know how scary it can be entrusting your pet to somebody else, so I want to know every detail and make you feel as reassured about their care as possible. I work closely with every pet parent to make sure their pet's needs are completely fulfilled and everyone feels at ease. Meeting your pet where they're at is the most important thing to me, whether that's big long walks with lots of play for energetic dogs or simply being a reassuring presence for shy cats.
“Joe was absolutely amazing with max. Very professional and had max's best interest at heart. I think max has a new best friend. He had a lovely walk and is now chilling. Thank you Joe. Will definitely be rebooking xx”
About: I am just a caring and loving pet owner who adores any kind of animal .It will be my pleasure to care for your companion. I live 2 minutes walk from a local park and work from home so your dog will always have a company and a constant access to a big fenced garden. I have a big fenced garden and a ten year old chocolate Labrador to keep your dog or a cat a company . I will be happy to to have your pet in my loving family home
About: There is a saying that resonates with me quite strongly - our pets are a chapter in our lives, but we are their whole book. Making our animals lives the most fulfilling they can be is very important to me. I’ve had all sorts of pets since the day I can remember. Dogs, cats, hamsters, even gerbils! Looking after pets of any kind brings me a sense of fulfilment, and there isn’t a moment I don’t enjoy. I recently left my retail job, as it wasn’t bringing me fulfilment, and working with people isn’t my forte due to my neurodiversity. As such, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets, as short or as long as you might need it! Whether you just need someone to walk your pooch, drop in, or stay for a longer period of time, I’ll be there! (Honestly, the longer I can stay with them, the better!) As I currently don’t have the space required for onboarding animals, I cannot offer that as a service. However, during stays to your home, I can offer do anything that would make you the most comfortable. Hourly check-ins via messaging, walks at certain times, and if they need crating or a little training, I’m happy to do that as well.
“Gloria is already comfortable with Leanna on her second walk. She took Gloria on a gentle stroll and is doing a great job of building a bond with her. We are very impressed and have already booked another walk!”
About: Calm, capable, and consistent. I show up on time, send one photo per visit, and trust my gut. I walk at the dog’s pace, not mine. I bag every poop, avoid hot pavement, and never force a scared dog. I choose patience over punishment, and when in doubt, I sit down and wait. I’m not just a walker or sitter — I’m the steady presence their dog trusts while they’re away. I work part-time, which means I have plenty of flexible hours throughout the day to give your pet proper attention — not rushed, not squeezed in. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities — always. I adapt to your pet's routine, not mine. Feeding times, walk schedules, bedtimes — I follow your script so your pet feels minimal disruption. I keep your home secure — doors locked, windows closed, alarms set exactly as you leave them. I'll send you a quick text whenever I arrive and leave. I'm tidy and respectful — I clean up after myself, wipe my feet, wash any bowls I use, and leave your space exactly as I found it (or tidier). No strangers — I never bring guests, friends, or other pets into your home. It's just me and your pet. Emergency-ready — I have your vet's number, your emergency contact, and a clear plan for accidents, escapes, or illness. I also carry a basic pet first aid kit in my bag.

About: I am a reliable and caring dog lover with many years of hands-on experience. I have owned and cared for dogs since the age of 14, giving me a strong understanding of their needs, behaviour, and wellbeing. I offer dog walking and dog sitting services, ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and am committed to providing a safe, happy, and trustworthy service. Although I don't currently have a dog of my own, this is mainly due to having a large family and the commitments that come with it. However, I have owned and cared for dogs since I was 14 and genuinely miss having them around. We have also donated to the charity Guide Dogs for many years. Caring for dogs brings me a lot of enjoyment, which is why I offer dog walking and pet sitting services. Part of the week, my blended family stays with their other parent, which gives me plenty of free time, flexibility, and attention to dedicate to caring for pets. This means I can provide dogs with the companionship, exercise, and care they need in a safe and loving environment. I can prioritise walks before and after work and I work from home twice per week where I can ensure pets receive consistent care, exercise, and affection within your home or mine. I am available for walks and check ins, doggy daycare within your home or mine and overnight stays (mainly weekends) where possible. Please connect with me to ask about availability as I can try to accommodate outside of my calendar schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for all pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in the owner's home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication requirements, and any specific instructions. I ensure pets have plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision, while keeping their environment clean, secure, and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and owners is very important to me, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have grown up around dogs and cats. I’ve cared for multiple Border Collies over the years, including having them stay with me, and I’ve also looked after French Bulldogs and Grey Hounds. I had a Border Collie and a mixed breed golden retriever of my own when I was younger, so I understand how much love, attention and care dogs need. I’ve always wanted a dog of my own, but with my current working hours, I’m not able to give one the time and attention they deserve. That’s why I’ve decided to become a pet sitter — it gives me the opportunity to spend time with dogs, give them lots of love and care, and hopefully give owners peace of mind while they’re away. I’ll treat every pet as if they were my own! 🐾❤️ I work full-time, but I have two days off each week and my days off vary depending on my rota. I’m happy to plan bookings around my work schedule and can dedicate my days off to caring for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and I’d also be happy to look after your animals for the full day when needed. I’m very flexible and will always make sure your pets receive plenty of care, attention and love. I am aware that every pet has its own routine and things that they prefer so I’m happy to work around all needs. I wouldn’t let any dog off leash unless it’s safe to do so.
About: I have had a lot of experience with dog and cat sitting before, including dog walks and feeding them, ensuring cleanliness and ensuring to keep them company! Photos may be used on my instagram and facebook accounts for my pet sitting! For more information please contact me🐾 Im at university and work part time however I usually work nights This means I have spare time in the day time and around University. I ensure they are fit and well, and I report any concerns I have about the pets and ensure they are clean and happy. This is such as washing bowls, cleaning litter trays etc.
About: Experienced, caring and reliable pet lover 🐾 I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, so pet care is something I’d be doing because I love it as much as anything else. I’ve had experience caring for a range of different animals. I currently have two cats, Simby and Nala, as well as a leopard gecko called Reggie. I’ve also had extensive experience caring for and walking a dog, including regular walks, exercise, feeding and general day-to-day care. Having had a dog of my own. This has given me a good understanding of how different dogs can have completely different personalities, energy levels and needs. I’m patient, reliable and attentive, and I’ll always take the time to make sure your pet feels comfortable and settled. I’m happy to follow your usual routines, whether that’s a long energetic walk, a relaxed stroll, playtime, feeding, toilet breaks or simply giving them some company. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all different sizes and personalities, as well as cats and other pets. Having animals of my own has also taught me that not every pet wants the same thing — some love constant attention, while others are happier having someone quietly check in on them and make sure everything is okay. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are in safe hands, particularly when you’re at work or away from home. I’ll treat every pet I look after with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated during visits or walks, including photos where appropriate, so you can see that your pet is happy and being well looked after. Trust & reliability I understand that inviting someone to care for your pet — and potentially into your home — requires a high level of trust. My employment requires me to undergo thorough background and vetting checks, so I’m accustomed to working to high standards of professionalism, responsibility and confidentiality. You can feel confident that I’ll treat both your home and your pets with the utmost respect and care. Your pet’s wellbeing comes first, and I’ll always treat them as if they’re my own. 🐶🐱🦎 I work a 4 days on, 4 days off shift pattern, which gives me several consecutive days with plenty of flexibility for pet care. I can offer walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’m happy to discuss regular or one-off bookings. I’ll always make sure I have enough time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I take the safety and wellbeing of every pet in my care very seriously. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routines and instructions, including feeding, walks, medication where appropriate and any specific needs they may have. I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own home and understand the importance of respecting both your home and your privacy. My employment also requires thorough background and vetting checks, so professionalism, responsibility and trust are very important to me.
About: I used to look after dogs in my previous home with my family. I now live in my own house and want to continue looking after pets. I love all dogs all sizes and all cats.

I’m currently studying my masters at university where I only have lectures on a friday and play football some evenings and on a sunday. Other than that have a lot of free time at the minute 😅 I have a fenced garden. There are no other pets in my house. Space in the house for whatever things they need to be happy

About: We have looked after family & friends dogs (big & small) over the past 3 years. We are now ready to open our home to others who need a holiday home whilst their owners are away. Carl, Joshua & I would like to thank you for considering us to take care of your pet. We will treat them as if they are our own.

We are available from 4pm Monday-Sunday (Subject to availability) We have a beautiful 1650s corner property with a 1/4 acre private garden. Whilst it’s not a fully fenced garden the unfenced area is lined with hedges, bushes, a brook & then a lake.

Our home will only be open to one owners dog(s) at a time to ensure safety.

“Rory stayed with Sheila and family for just over 7 days. They kept me updated with how Rory was getting on, sharing pics and video of him playing & settling well with their dog Hugo too.

Thanks again Sheila & Pete and i appreciated the short notice booking that you kindly accommodated for.👍😎👍”

About: Hi! I’m a dog lover with a warm, relaxed and loving home-from-home for your dog! I work from home, so I’m around all day, every day, to give your dog lots of company, attention and cuddles. I know how important it is for dogs to feel settled and comfortable when their humans are away, so I ensure to make their stay feel as much like home as possible! I have my own dog that goes to doggy day care sometimes if I'm on holiday so I completely understand. The back door is open throughout the day, giving dogs free access to an enclosed grassy garden. They can come and go as they like! In my house, dogs are part of the family. They’re welcome on the furniture including sofas and the bed, and there will be lots of cuddles and fuss. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, medication and any little habits. Every dog is different, and I’ll always take the time to understand what makes your dog feel safe and happy. While you’re away, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see your pup enjoying their holiday too. 📸❤️ If you’re looking for a loving, relaxed and genuinely dog-friendly home where your dog won’t be left alone all day, I’d love to welcome them! 🐾 I work completely from home Monday - Friday. I work from the living room so dogs can snuggle up to me while I work! I tend to take my dog Frankie for a walk around midday for about 45 minutes or so but I can be flexible with this if you need longer/shorter or broken up differently, let me know! 😊 The garden is completed enclosed, no little gaps or anything (trust me my little sausage dog would have found any if there were!). Lots of grass and also a little patio area. Tend to leave the back door open all day most months of the year so dogs can come and go as they like for toilet breaks and exploring. Lots of sofa cuddles!
About: I’m an experienced dog owner with a friendly six year old cockapoo of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable who will treat your dog properly. I’m calm, active and patient, and I’m comfortable following each dog’s individual routine, including feeding instructions, lead preferences and exercise needs. I live with my girlfriend who is a teacher and will be around on weekends and evenings. My background in teaching and sports coaching means I’m organised, responsible and used to looking after others. I’ll give your dog plenty of attention and exercise while keeping you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident that they’re safe, settled and enjoying themselves. My work is flexible and varies across the week, which gives me availability for daytime walks, drop in visits and selected overnight stays. I keep my Rover calendar updated so owners can see when I’m available. As I already plan my routine around my own dog, walks, playtime, feeding and regular toilet breaks fit naturally into my day. I have a friendly, neutered six year old cockapoo called Loki. Before caring for another dog in my home, I would arrange a meet and greet to make sure the dogs are comfortable together. I will follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking and sleeping routines, supervise introductions carefully and only let dogs off the lead with the owner’s explicit permission. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates.
