About: I study zoology at university and I am a certified marine mammal medic! I have a passion for taking care of animals and I have previous experience in pet sitting, including boarding for a week. I also have pet sitting insurance. I’m currently home from university and not working, so I am available whenever needed! I also have a car so I am available at short notice and am willing to travel. I have a fenced garden with a dog and a cat with lots of fields to play and run around in a short 2 minute walk away!
“Zoe is the best! Accepted a last minute booking and came over the day before for a meet and greet. Super friendly and helpful. Buzz loved her and had a fun time during the drop in visit. Will definitely rebook with Zoe again!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and that passion is now shared with my two young sons. Our current family includes two dogs—brothers we helped welcome into the world when I fostered their mother—and a once-stray cat. Now five years old, they are gentle, well-socialized, and wonderful companions. With years of experience caring for animals at every life stage, from bottle-feeding newborns to supporting senior pets, I understand the unique needs of each age. Whether it’s administering medication or providing extra comfort, your pet will be in capable and caring hands. Our home is a warm, safe space where pets are treated as family. We’d be honored to care for yours. I'm currently working part-time,so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I will take the pet out for walks 2-3 times a day to relieve themselves, with each walk lasting no less than 30 minutes. I will also feed the pet according to the owner's instructions—typically twice a day, unless otherwise specified. I'll take them out for walks 2–3 times a day, each at least 30 minutes, and spend time playing with them to build trust. My neighborhood has a large lawn where pets can run and play—I'm sure they'll love it here.
“Emma was brilliant, super communicative and took excellent care of my cat, Bella. Bella was recovering from being spayed and Emma was great with checking her, kept an eye on her wound, and gave her pain meds. Thank you!”
About: I’ve grown up caring for dogs and currently help look after two dogs, a golden retriever and a cocker spaniel (aged 5 and 2) who I’ve cared for since they were puppies. This has given me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, reinforcing good behaviour, and making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I’ve also looked after my neighbours cat during holidays, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and spending time with them to keep them comfortable while their owners were away. I’m active, reliable, and love spending time with animals. I am an athlete and therefore I am used to being organised, punctual, and commited, so you can trust that your pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise and care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow owners’ instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved whilst you are away. Services I offer: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to your pets’ individual needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, lots of playtime, or simply some company while your away, I’m happy to follow their usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I can provide: - Dog walking (short or long walks to suit your dogs needs) - Drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, playtime and toilet breaks - Pet sitting - Regular photo and text updates for peace of mind - Plenty of attention, affection and enrichment - Care tailored to your pets routine, including feeding schedules and any specific instructions Your pets safety, happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priority. During the summer, I train 2-3 times a day as a competitive rower, but outside of my training sessions I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the day. I’m organised and plan my day around my commitments, so I’m able to provide reliable care and stick to your pets routine. From September, I’ll be back at university while continuing to train 2-3 times a day. My availability will be more limited during weekdays, but I’ll still have availability around my lectures and training, as well as on many evenings and weekends. I’m always happy to discuss your needs and let you know if I can accommodate your requested dates. Your pets safety and wellbeing will always be my highest priority. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away, so I’ll always take the time to follow their normal routine and any instructions you provide. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of attention, exercise where appropriate, and a safe, calm environment. I’ll also send regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m attentive to changes in behaviour and will contact you immediately if I have any concerns. I treat every pet with the same care, patience and respect that I give to my own animals, and I’m commited to making sure they feel happy, safe and well looked after.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10 years old. I have lived with cats and dogs and love spending my time with them whether that be feeding, stroking or keeping them entertained. I bond well with most pets and treat them like they’re my own, so you can be sure they will be getting the right care and love. I work a 6 on 4 off shift pattern which are two early shifts, two late shifts and two night shifts so I always know what shifts I’m on well in advance. I live in a two bed ground floor flat. The second bedroom is a room for furry visitors. If you use a crate or bed, I am more than happy to put them in there along with any toys or other items they may need.
About: I have grown up frequently helping a family member out with her animal rescue, looking after dogs of all different shapes and sizes, some with additional needs. I have experience walking strong and difficult dogs, and will be confident attending to your dog's every need! I have just graduated from uni and currently have a part time job, so am looking to fill lots of my free time looking after some pets! I currently don't have any pets of my own but I have a lot of love to give to whichever furry friends I meet. I can easily follow any instructions you leave for the care of your pet in your home, and also use my initiative in any unprecedented situations that may arise. I will make sure that your pet is comfortable and your house remains exactly as you left it :)
“Lauren was absolutely brilliant. It’s the first time we’ve used Rover, and she made us feel totally safe about leaving our cat in her care. We had daily updates and photos of him. And we just got home, and he’s looking very well looked after We will definitely be using this service again.”
About: I’ve been around animals since I was young and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets including rescue dogs, hamsters, and budgies. Over the years I’ve provided dog walking, drop-ins, overnight house sitting, and pet care for friends, family, and clients. I have also completed a pet first aid course for extra peace of mind. I’m especially patient with nervous or anxious pets, having spent the last 9 years with my rescue dog who is fearful of people, which has taught me how important calm energy, trust, and routine are. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every animal has their own personality and needs. I’ve also handled more responsible aspects of pet care when needed, including taking dogs to vet appointments during pet sits, so I’m able to stay calm, attentive, and reliable in different situations. I genuinely love animals and always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day, especially during longer stays. Depending on your pet’s needs and routine, I’m able to do walks in the mornings, at lunchtime, after work, and in the evenings, while also spending plenty of time with them during the day. For dog walking and drop-ins, I’m generally available on selected weekdays at lunchtime, every evening after 5pm, most weekends, and during holidays including bank holidays and Christmas. I currently provide pet care in the owner’s home, as I believe many pets feel happiest and most comfortable staying in their familiar environment and routine. I always take the time to understand each pet’s usual schedule, personality, and needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I aim to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for extra peace of mind.

“Ryan was great, super friendly and my cat took to him immediately. Really attentive during the drop-in visit, played with her, sorted food, water and litter tray. Would absolutely recommend (and if my cat could type, I bet she would too!)”
“Samantha was professional in her approach throughout the initial contact, booking process and pet sitting. She worked hard to build a relationship with our rather distant cat, and provided useful daily up-dates. The feeding area was left spotless and tidied away as we requested. I will be using Samantha again for future holidays.”

Cat owners share their Rover experiences - Wokingham
Kin is incredibly responsible, reliable, and caring. She took excellent care of my cat, Simba, and kept me updated throughout with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind. My fat boy Simba absolutely adores her, and it’s obvious she genuinely loves and understands cats. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter!
Jazz is absolutely fantastic, we came home to two very chilled, happy and contented cats, which says everything about the wonderful care she gave them. During each visit Jazz sent us photos and updates, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. she has such a lovely calming effect on Turkish, our slightly hissy black cat who now adores her and that confidence has rubbed off on Monty our timid big ginger cat. Normally Monty hides upstairs for the entire holiday and doesn't interact with anyone, but this time he came downstairs and spent time with Jazz. It's clear that Jazz genuinely cares about the cats she looks after and we couldn't be happier with the care she gave our cats. We'll definitely ask her to look after them again for our next holiday. Thank you again Jazz
I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. From the moment Bella walked in, my cats — who (one of them )is famously selective about humans — warmed to her instantly. She sent thoughtful updates every day, complete with photos and little notes about there mood and antics. I came home to a relaxed, happy cats. Her care goes far beyond the basics; she genuinely gets cats. Thank you so much ❤️
Jana was brilliant at looking after my cat when I was away; she was able to help at short notice, communicative, able to give her medication and gave me daily photo updates on how my cat was doing which was v reassuring. When the app was updated and we had issues logging on, she made sure to send me a text to ensure we were able to be in touch. My cat seemed v happy and well looked after when I arrived home. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Jana again in the future!
Lauren was absolutely brilliant. It’s the first time we’ve used Rover, and she made us feel totally safe about leaving our cat in her care. We had daily updates and photos of him. And we just got home, and he’s looking very well looked after We will definitely be using this service again.
Sydney is great with our two cats, very attentive and good at keeping us updated. She let us know immediately when one of them had got a small scratch in a fight (they’re outdoor cats) and was able to manage it very well. Always a pleasure to know she’s looking after them, thank you!
We had a great experience with Jade! She was incredibly kind, reliable, and clearly cared about our cats. While we were away, she kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which really put our minds at ease. Communication was clear and timely, and we always felt confident that our cats were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend Jade and would happily book again!
On meeting, Camilla gave an impression of warmth and competence and we felt confident that she would look after our two cats very well, including givng oral medication. Our trust was well placed and I hope that Camilla will be available next time we need her.

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 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.
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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
