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!!🩷

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!

I have the capacity and patience to give all the dogs in my care my full undivided attention/time, and all of the love, kindness and cuddles they deserve - giving you peace of mind that your dog is in safe hands. When pet-sitting or dog walking, I spend time understanding your pet's routines/personality/habits/loves/hates during the first meet and greet appointment to ensure I have a full appreciation of their individual needs. I can then spend quality time with each pet/dog to ensure they feel safe, happy and loved at all times.

We were so glad to find Mai and Joe, who we booked to look stay with our 2 cats for 1 week whilst we were away. They met with us before the booking to collect the key and we were instantly reassured by what sweet and genuine people they are. We received lovely daily updates, and we could tell from the photos how relaxed and happy the cats were in their care. They made sure the cats were comfortable during new year fireworks, which was one of our biggest priorities. We would absolutely book Mai and Joe again when we next need a cat sitter (which will likely be in about 6 months!) Thank you Mai and Joe for loving on our babies so we could properly relax.

About: Growing up with various dog breeds from small to large since before I was born, I have extensive experience of all ages. For my 7th birthday I asked for a kitten and brought her up with love and care until she sadly passed of old age. I have previously volunteered as a foster carer for dogs and have been able to confidently meet all of the needs and wants of those in my care. I am currently a mature student, completing a masters via distant learning. This means I am at home all day and have complete freedom to give all the time and attention that your pet wants. I am happy to look after your pet either in your home or mine. I have a house with a fenced garden and no other pets at home (except for a fish but he’s no bother and in a secure tank). There are lots of beautiful walks locally with open green areas to explore whilst out and about on walkies. I have 2 children, aged 8 and 11 who are extremely confident with pets, however, they will never be left alone with any dogs or cats and are at school during the day.

Angela was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my dog while house sitting. She was kind, reliable, and kept me reassured, which meant so much. It was clear my dog felt comfortable and well looked after, and I truly appreciated the care and attention she gave. I would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Thank you ☺️ Xx

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.

When looking for a dog sitter for our 14 year old springer we were keen to find someone we could immediately feel that she was in good hands. Josh looked after Saffy and our home and we couldn’t have asked for more. Josh messaged when he arrived and left and sent photos of a chilled and happy dog. We would certainly recommend Josh and will be booking him again.

About: Hi, I’m 25 and live in my own home with my boyfriend Jack, where we provide a calm, safe and loving environment for dogs. We have a Dutch Shepherd called Jett, who is a huge part of our lives and truly our pride and joy. I work from home full-time, so your dog will never be left alone and will have constant supervision, attention and care throughout the day. My boyfriend is experienced in obedience training, and together we’ve put a lot of time into training Jett, including working on reactivity and teaching him a variety of commands and tricks. We understand how important routine, consistency and trust are when leaving your dog with someone else. Having recently looked for a sitter ourselves, we know how difficult it can be to find someone who genuinely cares and sticks to your dog’s routine — that’s exactly what we aim to provide. We treat every dog as if they were our own, with plenty of love, structure, and attention to their individual needs. Our goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your dog is in safe and caring hands. I have been brought up with a beagle American bulldog and a cocker spaniel so I’m quite familiar with other breeds and how are the dogs act? I don’t have direct experience with boarding but of course I’ve watched family pets and taken our family dogs and friends dogs for walks. At home, we follow a structured and consistent routine which your dog would easily fit into. My boyfriend wakes at 5:30am and starts the day with letting Jett out for a toilet followed by a walk around 30 minutes later. After returning home, Jett is fed and then settles back with me into a calm morning routine. I work from home every day, so dogs are never left alone and are welcome to relax with me throughout the day. Our own dog is very affectionate and enjoys being close, often choosing to lie with us on the sofa or come for cuddles. He also has plenty of toys available and enjoys interactive play during the day. Due to his active breed, we include a mid-day walk and a longer evening walk (around 1–1.5 hours at approximately 7pm). After this, he relaxes and sleeps through the evening. Dinner is usually around 9pm, followed by a final toilet break around 9:30pm before bed. We are happy to adapt feeding and walk times to suit each dog’s individual routine. On weekends, we enjoy longer walks in local woods, hills, or the beach, and our dog often accompanies us. He also enjoys relaxed family time at home or in the garden centre, where he comes along with us. We always aim to provide a calm, loving and structured environment where dogs feel part of the family and are cared for throughout the day. We care for pets in a calm, structured and home-based environment where they are treated as part of the family. As I work from home full-time, pets are never left alone and receive constant supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. We follow each pet’s individual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walk schedules, toilet breaks, and any training or behavioural needs. We are very consistent with structure, as we understand how important routine is for a dog’s wellbeing and comfort. In our home, dogs have access to a safe, relaxed space with toys, rest areas, and plenty of interaction. Our own dog is well-socialised and used to other dogs, and we carefully manage introductions to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. We include regular walks suited to each dog’s energy level — from shorter local walks to longer, more active outings — as well as mental stimulation through play and affection throughout the day. Our aim is always to provide reliable, loving care so owners have complete peace of mind while they are away.

About: My name is Tom. I am a family man and cats have always been part of my family although I love all animals and have also experience with rabbits, Guinea Pigs, hamsters, gerbils and dogs. Our 2 cats are both getting on in age, but very healthy. They are rescue cats. I have looked after friend’s and family’s pets throughout my life including cats with specific dietary and care needs. I am happy to work out a care schedule that meets your cat requirements, and also any other pets that you may need caring for. This will include food, medication if needed, specific play needs, cleaning up mess, and more if required. Not every cat is social, so I am happy to complete a pre-meet to introduce myself to the cat and family before sitting. I will send a photo a visit and maybe a few videos. I am also happy to put out bins, water plants, walk dogs, change litter trays. In my spare time I do charity work, run and keep fit, and enjoy hiking. Other than that I split my time between work and my family. I’ve recently chosen to go part time so that I can spend more time with my young children and am looking to therefore supplement my income a bit. I will always act with discretion and courtesy, as I understand how important home space is.

About: I've grown up in a countryside surrounded by pets and animals of all kind. Since I was a child I adored and took care of our fur friends, treating them like part of a family. Often taking care of friends and family's pets, trying to teach them some tricks and making sure they getting all the attention, quality time and entertainment they need. I've also volunteered in Thailand in rescued animals sanctuary where I cared daily for rescued dogs, cats and wild animals. It included feeding, walking, cleaning, playing, showering and socializing puppies. Some of these animals were disabled or had special needs so I had to have a very individual approach to every single one. I'm available most mornings and evenings, including weekends and bank holidays. I work as self employed so I can organize my schedule to meet owners' needs. While doing walks with dogs or pet sitting at home I always consider their health and needs, also owners advices/tips while choosing if this should be more of an active or peaceful time for older/ill/disabled pets. Every pet is different so I have individual approach to each one I get to know and care for. I trust that the owner will provide all the necessary information when trusting me with their cat/dog, so I can care for them as best as I can considering their health, needs and preferences.

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

This was my first time using a dog sitting service and I couldn't have asked for a better first experience. Laura put me at ease right from the beginning, she was professional and extremely accommodating to mine and my dogs needs. Laura took such good care of my dog Connie, she updated me frequently and was even happy to update me more often if I requested. She was very accommodating and flexible to mine and Connie's needs but above all she made me feel relaxed and at ease leaving my dog and home. I will 100% be using Laura's services again and would highly recommend her. Thank you Laura, from me and Connie 🐾💕

Niamh, once again, has been amazing! New challenges at our house included Max being an energetic 10 month old learning his limits and boundaries, dealing with our old dog and the puppy in the heat and an ant invasion in the bathroom. We came home to happy dogs, a clean home and no ants! Her communication is brilliant and I loved the video she made of Max showing how much he’s grown since last time she visited. She took good care of my furry family and our home. Thank you!

Marina was fantastic! My dogs were happy and relaxed when I came back after Marina had looked after them for the weekend. She kept me updated and sent me photos while I was away so I felt confident that they were being well cared for. My dogs are not easy dogs so Marina came and met them before I went away so we were both sure that they would be alright with her and she was so calm and competent with them that it was clear all would be fine. They liked her immediately. I would have no hesitation in using Marina again.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! From the get go, Danielle was friendly, and clearly very passionate about animals. The best part was that during the initial visit, Carter took to Danielle right away, which immediately put us at ease and gave us so much confidence in leaving him in her care. She took the time to ask all of the right questions to understand Carter's routine, personality, and any specific needs he may have, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which really reassured us that Carter was happy and being well cared for. It was obvious that lots of fuss, care, attention, and playtime (with treats too) were given. We both highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter, and we will absolutely be booking again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Worcester

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Worcester on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,216 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Worcester. 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 Worcester 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 Worcester 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.
