About: I truly love dogs, and any dog that comes into my home will be treated as part of the family. My two sons and I shared our lives with a German Shepherd for almost 12 years, and ever since we lost her, the house has felt a little too empty. We’re really looking forward to welcoming your dog into our lives. I always try to care for each dog in a way that suits their unique personality. If a dog is nervous, I’ll give them gentle comfort and patience. If they’re playful, we’ll have fun with toys and games. And if they love walks, we’ll enjoy exploring the outdoors together. I do some volunteer work and also work part-time from home, so my schedule is really flexible. I’ll have lots of time to spend with your pup, especially during the holidays. There are plenty of green spaces nearby for walks. Since I don’t have any pets at the moment, I can focus all my attention on the dogs I care for.
About: I've spent over 20 years as a Physio and Rehabilitation practitioner for dogs in Australia. I've worked with thousands of dogs of all ages and breeds. I have two dogs of my own. A Swiss Shepherd called Shen Bear and a Leonberger called Kiana. I specialise in older dog care and am happy to share my experience to take the best posisble care of your dog. I'm now back in the UK with my Swiss Shepherd called Shen Bear and our young Leonberger called Kiana. I'm reliable, honest and here to help your dog. I work from home most days with a flexible schedule, leaving me time to fit in visits, walking and minding. I'm available early mornings and evenings if needed. If minding a dog at home. I have a secure large back yard and two friendly dogs to keep your dog company. They have plenty of room to play and relax. I also have a seperate space if they need time out.
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.
“Flo did a great job of looking after Maple yesterday. She came exactly when she said she would and sent photos so we could see what Maple was up to. Flo was very efficient at communicating before she visited Maple and replied to all of my emails quickly. I would really recommend Flo if you are looking for someone to look after your dog.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover offering warm, family-style care in Woodley. We spend lots of time outdoors walking, playing and enjoying fresh air. Our golden retriever, Crumble is playful, gentle and loves making new dog friends. He’s also a proud stick collector and occasional sock thief. I care for dogs as if they were my own, with patience, affection and plenty of attention. I’m home-based and able to offer flexible care during weekdays and selected weekends. We already enjoy daily walks and outdoor time, so your dog will join a warm family routine with regular exercise, garden breaks and company throughout the day. One dog at the time so every dog gets personal care and attention. I provide a safe, loving home environment with a secure garden, regular supervision and lots of comfort. I keep care personal and low-stress, with gentle introductions to Crumble and close attention to each dog’s needs. I’m happy to follow feeding, sleep and walking routines so your dog feels settled and secure. Crumble offers playtime, toy sharing and first-class cuddles.
About: I have trained 3 puppies in the last 5 years, 2 of which are doodle cross. We have had gun dogs and small Poms. I’ve administered medication, cleaned and bathed big dogs as well as small ones. I will be with my 10 year old daughter so ideally like to look after child friendly dogs. I work 8-4 during the week, my husband is away a lot so I am free most weekends with my daughter. So I am happy to provide a service between a Friday and Sunday. I will walk on a lead daily, or a fenced area or as the owner requires. I am very accommodating as each animal has their own needs. Please just specify and I am happy to follow instructions, nothing is too much of an ask
About: I’ve never owned a dog myself, but I’ve gained lots of experience looking after dogs through friends and BorrowMyDoggy. I’ve been a dog walker on BorrowMyDoggy for the past 2 years, looking after 5 different dogs with a range of personalities! I really enjoy spending time with dogs and would love to help walk yours. I work from home 3 days a week so can support on my lunch breaks and after work. I am also often around on weekends if help is needed then too. If your dog spends time in my home, they’ll have a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced garden for supervised outdoor time and playing!
“Sofia was amazing looking after our cat Winnie. She is so professional and great at keeping in touch and checking in with updates and photos. Even when Winnie wasn’t around she kept us updated and reassured and made sure she was looked after. I would recommend Sofia to look after any pet”
“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!)”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals. I grew up in the countryside in Romania where animals were always part of daily life. My father is a veterinarian, so from a young age I learned how to care for animals and understand their needs. Growing up, I was surrounded by many different animals including horses, cows, dogs, cats, ducks, and rabbits, so being around animals feels very natural to me. I also have experience raising kittens in the past, and currently I have two male cats of my own who are 3 and 5 years old, as well as a friendly Cocker Spaniel. Because of this, I’m very comfortable caring for different pets and understanding their personalities. I also have experience giving pets medication, including handling pills, as my dog had some health issues in the past and required regular treatment. I’m patient, attentive, and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure pets stay safe, comfortable, and in their normal routine. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as I have a friendly Cocker Spaniel of my own, so I’m very used to regular walks, playtime, and giving dogs lots of attention and care. I work full-time but have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for boarding on weekdays after 2pm, and I am completely free on weekends. I also have a one-hour lunch break during the day, so I’m able to check in on pets and provide toilet breaks. I always make sure dogs feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they stay with me. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific care needs. I have a friendly Cocker Spaniel and also cats at home, so I’m very used to caring for different animals and making sure they all feel comfortable and safe. For this reason, dogs staying with me should be comfortable around other pets. I always introduce animals calmly and supervise interactions to make sure everyone gets along well. Dogs staying with me will receive regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I have a flexible working schedule and a one-hour lunch break, which allows me to check in during the day and provide toilet breaks. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they are away.
“Heidi, took amazing care of our cat while we were on holiday ,she was able to respond at short notice and her communication and updates throughout were incredibly professional and thoughtful, We would not hesitate to book Heidi again in the future and would highly recommend her ! Thankyou again Heidi ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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.”

About: Hi! Im Zoe and I have always had a huge love for animals, so I have always had an animal in the house! I currently have two cats of my own and have experience pet sitting a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, parrots and rabbits. I also work on an alpaca farm, where I regularly handle and care for alpacas and other farm animals. I’m confident around animals of all personalities and love getting to know each pet’s individual needs. I’ll always treat your pets with the same care, patience and attention that I’d want for my own! ❤️ I’m currently a second year university student so I have plenty of time to fit your furry friends around my schedule.

I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats to be able to care for them in your home I can undergo whatever it is that you need me to do for them.

About: My family has always had dogs, they are the absolute best! Me and my partner Scott have been together 13 years and have had 2 dogs from puppy stage since 2016, a terrier and a Labrador. So I am used to handling different sizes, personalities and life stages. Unfortunately I lost my Labrador this year and would love to meet new dogs through boarding and welcome them into our family whilst they stay here. I work from home, so they will never be lonely. There is a big garden with space for them to play, and great local walks to explore with them :) I work from home and usually walk my dog Dexter at midday around the local lake and woods. If there’s a hot day, this will be first thing or late evening instead to keep them safe. I am home most of the time, so they will rarely if ever be left alone I have a large fenced garden, our terrier is an escape artist, so trust me it’s dog proof and a great space for them to play, sniff and relax! I have a good size 4 bed house, and they will be allowed access to all rooms and will be treated like one of our own. At night I would prefer they sleep downstairs either in the kitchen or living room on a sofa, let me know if this is not suitable

Tinny was absolutely fantastic with our cat Mitzi! Usually Mitzi can be shy and scared of new people but Tinny was so great with her and they were good friends in no time at all. We cannot recommend Tinny enough and would definitely hire her again - thank you 😊
This is our second time having Kin take care of our two furballs and it was a pleasure as always. We had wonderful daily updates, videos and pictures and felt reassured for our entire trip. Everything was also kept so tidy and we’re so grateful that Kin always makes sure to fuss over our cats and goes above and beyond to make sure they’re well, healthy and happy. Thanks again and we hope to see you again soon.
Flo did a great job of looking after Maple yesterday. She came exactly when she said she would and sent photos so we could see what Maple was up to. Flo was very efficient at communicating before she visited Maple and replied to all of my emails quickly. I would really recommend Flo if you are looking for someone to look after your dog.
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!
Chenyan was fantastic. I reached out really last minute and she was able to facilitate a drop in visit. She even took the time to pop by on the morning of the day of sitting for a quick meet with myself and Buzz. Buzz instantly loved her and she kept me updated throughout the visit with lots of videos and photos. I’m definitely going to use Chenyan’s services again.
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.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
