“Niamh came and did a fantastic job doing some shorter home visits for us. She looked after our older dog and this time also had the challenge of our new puppy! Niamh took care of all the puppy’s needs and definitely enjoyed a cuddle or two! Lots of photos and the updates were great. ❤️ Choose Niamh!”
“Maisie did a great job and won our cat's affection very quickly. She's very reliable and animal friendly. I would definitely recommend her and will use her service again.”
“Second time having Mia look after our cats. She was very confident with it being a repeat visit and as were we. It's great to go away and not worry about your pets, knowing they are in good care.”
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!
“I couldn’t be more pleased with Kate’s service. Pepper my cat was so relaxed when I got home from my holiday. Regular updates and photos while I was away were very welcome! Thank you, Kate.”
“Leanna and Lauren did an amazing job of looking after my 2 cats. They took the time to get to know the cats and their personalities and fussed & played with them as well as feeding them and administering medication (tablets and eye ointment) to one of the cats. They sent detailed updates and lovely photos. Unfortunately one of my cats became ill and they quickly identified the problem and let me know straight away. Using a cat sitter when my cat was unwell and needing medication was difficult but Leanna and Lauren showed a lot of care and compassion and were very reassuring. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again.”
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.
“Dany is absolutely brilliant with our 12 week old puppy. He makes sure she is well cared for and not lonely. He goes above and beyond what we expect of him. I can't recommend Dany enough!”
About: Dogs, cats, and horses have always been a part of my life, having been lucky enough to grow up with them in the family. I love spending time with and caring for animals, big and small! I have more than 5 years experience working with a range of breeds professionally through kennel and dog care work, alongside a lifetime of personal dog companionship! I’m confident with larger breeds, and I love getting to know all animals as individuals, quirks and all. I have had rescues, both cats and dogs, and know how important patience and kindness is for all animals, but for rescues in particular. I love being outdoors, and for me dogs and horses offer the perfect excuse to get out more - their company is the icing on the cake! My flexible part time remote working job role means I can offer in home visits during week days any time, and offer walks and boarding at their own home at weekends or weekday evenings. I will work with you to decide the best way for me to give your pet everything they need, keeping them safe, secure and well loved!!
About: I have always had pets since a young age, and often looked after them, along with helping my family when they have needed me to look after their own, both puppy and senior for long and short periods. I am currently a student looking to fill my holidays with helping pet owners the best I can. I can provide drop-ins, dog walks, and house sits when needed to make you and your pets lives the easiest and happiest it can be. As a student, I have long holidays where I can be available throughout the day to come and assist your needs. I can provide pet care throughout these times on weekdays and weekends where necessary. I have multiple dogs at home that I regularly look after and give love to. When caring for your pet, I like to give attention, love, and keep them company throughout the time needed.
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 have been dog sitting for a few years now but my journey really started in 2023 when I moved to university and struggled to make friends. Dog sitting helped me not feel as alone in a place where I didn’t know anybody and also allowed me to make friends. Pet owners trust me as I send multiple updates, including pictures and videos as well as doing meet & greets before booking a stay, allowing both pet owners and pets feel safe around me. I have just graduated from my university course and I am now working full time. However, I do work from home and it’s very rare I have to go into office - when I do my partner stays at home and works from home so your pet will never be left alone! We usually take pets on 4 walks as we don’t have a garden. The pet can roam around without being harmed by any objects or areas as the house is genuinely safe. The temperature at home would also be accommodated, according to the weather. If the pet is at its own house, I would make sure to go for regular walks and spend quality time with the pet, showing love and affection.
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.
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.
About: I grew up with dogs and have dog sat many times. I have completed puppy training classes and looked after senior dogs too, both happily. I work full time in town but I have evenings and weekends free to help you where I can! I am available 6-9pm daily and would happily spend that with dogs! I own a lovely Victorian home close to the river which is full of character but not precious. I have an enclosed garden and lovely neighbours.
About: I’m from Italy where I recently opened a petsitting business with my sister. I’ve now moved to the UK for work and would love to keep taking care of animals as it is a true passion of mine. I’ve had cats my whole life growing up and really love them and enjoy taking care of them. I have experience taking care of dogs also through my petsitting business. I understand how difficult it is to find a trustworthy person to take care of your pet(s) when you are away and I would be happy to be this person. I can assure you that I will do my best to give them all the love and attention they need while you are away. I am currently a working professional who loves animals so I am able to petsit cats anytime as I work a couple of hours a day but dogs only on weekends. I am available to pet sit in your home as well as my home but in my house I am only able to have cats, not dogs.

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.

Look for sitters who highlight multi-pet expertise or check for verified reviews from other Worcester pet parents with similar pet households.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
