About: We’ve had dogs in our family for over 20 years, from Border Collies and King Charles Spaniels to our much-loved Labrador, who we sadly lost recently. Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives, and Rover feels like a lovely way to keep dogs in our home while offering a safe, loving place for other people’s fur babies. We are fully licensed, insured and DBS checked, so you can feel confident that your dog will be cared for in a safe, responsible and professional home environment. We live in the beautiful village of Cowling, close to the Yorkshire Dales and surrounded by lovely countryside walks. As we are at home throughout the day, your dog will have company, care and attention, with someone around to help them feel settled and relaxed. Your dog will be treated as part of the family, with plenty of companionship, walks, home comforts and love. We know how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog with someone new, so we’ll always take time to understand their routine, personality and any special requirements before their stay.

“Lauren and family were absolutely amazing! They had shadow for a week while we were on our holidays and we got regular daily updates of her having the absolute best time. I cannot recommend these guys enough.”
“Daisy had a wonderful 10 days with Leah! She was kept busy with lots of walks, gun and cuddles, and Leah kept us updated with photos and videos throughout. Not sure what Leah did, but Daisy came back noticeably better behaved. We would definitely book again. Thank you Leah! 🐾”
“Second stay for Bruce with Marnie & Eddie, he had a fabulous time. He’s cared for so well. Love the regular updates of what he’s been up to each day. Highly recommend!”
“Want to say a massive thankyou. My young dog bella was very happy here. She usually doesnt like being with strangers but she seemed to settle really quick. I could see this with all the pictures i was sent while she was there. Thankyou Baz. I will book bella in again.”
“Mabel had the best time with Jordan, her partner and their 3 beautiful doggies. I got so many beautiful pictures and assurance that Mabel was good. I absolutely felt at ease from the minute I met them all and dropping Mabel off I knew she was going to have the best time. Can’t thank you both enough for looking after Mabel like one of your own 🥰 xx”
“This was Bella’s first stay with Sam a trial run following her previous sitters emigration, Bella took a little while to settle in but then was really relaxed sunbathing in front of the window and had a great run in the field. She got on really well with Rocky and they chased each other around. We were kept up to date with messages and videos of Bella’s stay all in all a successful trial and have now booked for Sam and Max to look after Bella while we were away.”
“Katie was friendly and instantly made Teddy feel relaxed . Her communication was brilliant and she was very gracious and accommodating with Teddy’s needs . I went away feeling confident my dog was in good hands . Thanks Katie I would highly recommend!”
“Lovely people and a lovely setting. Mabel was looked after like one of their own. We were sent lots of updates throughout her stay. She was very happy and settled quickly. Overall a wonderful service and highly recommended.”
“Amy was brilliant, so welcoming and great communication start to finish. Goose clearly felt happy and he was the calmest he's been when we've picked him up from anywhere! Absolutely would recommend and we'll be booking again in the future 😊”
“Another great trip for Hazel in her home from home (her third stay with Leah-Dionne now). She always looks so healthy and happy when I pick her up, and while we all miss her, we know she's having the best time. She even now has a boyfriend in Stanley, one of Leah's pugs 😍😆”
“Beth and Ross made me feel at ease, as soon as I dropped Snoop off. You can tell they are absolute dog lovers, and snoop took to them instantly. I received plenty of updates and pictures whilst I was away, and they seemed upset to see him go. I will 100% use them when I next need a dog sitter.”
“Jessica is great with Oreo, he's a very nervous little dog but he seems to settle here. Its quite a calm environment and he is given lots of love care and the space he needs to relax and feel safe. Jessica sends regularly updates throughout the stay which helps us relax. He's a regularly here now!”
“Rafael looked after our two dogs just for one night initially. She was great with them, sent through regular updates with photographs and was flexible. Would definitely recommend and will use her again.”
“Gino has had an absolute ball with Andrew and Nicky. He has walked miles exploring new places, visited China Town on the bus and to met all the locals. Highly recommend Andrew and nick to look after your pup. You will be reassured and content knowing your pup is not only looked after but having an adventure as well xxx”
About: I have taken care of many of my friends dogs whilst they go on holiday(s) over the last 5 years. This has included two beautiful, high energy spaniels and older Dachshunds. I work from home and have a spaniel myself so I’m constantly out and about making sure they have the best day. I wake up around 5.45 on week days and take George (my spaniel) on a nice 5k walk along the canal. I work from home so will get my morning meetings out of the way, let George out in the back yard in between. I usually walk to the local park at lunch which is around 2.5k round trip. And after work, depending on what I have planned we usually are out and about places. Quick walk around the block just before we go to bed. I have a fenced yard. Plenty of room in the kitchen to keep a cage. A ring camera that overlooks into the kitchen for if I need to nip out to the shops. And George is the most loving companion, he has been so socialised since I’ve had him that he loves having other dogs over for sleepovers.
About: I’ve taken care of/ owned lots of doggos, love walking and I have a lot of love for all kinds of dogs, I grew up with Rottweilers so not afraid of big doggy’s and only work part time so any dogs that stay will be with me all day and get lots of love. Only willing to have the one pup when my crazy spaniel is home but happy to have two when she’s away so I can put my full love and attention into the dogs and so your dog won’t get overwhelmed. I’ve looked after senior dogs and puppies so used to the chaos of them both!!! I’ve got a lot of love to give and hope you put your trust in me to take your furr baby we will both keep each other company while my partner is away ❤️ I Work half a day Friday and a full day Saturday but can take dogs from Saturday evening after 5:30 pm contact me if you would need dog care on those days in advance and I might be able to take them on a Saturday :) Our spaniel is taken out for a walk morning and evening and let out early morning and late night we don’t have a garden but we are in the middle of the Yorkshire dale and have a park over the road from us so toilet time isn’t hard we also take our pup to doggy fields a lot to let of steam which will happen if your dog stays with us

About: I have a 10 year old dog, and 10 years of personal experience of loving, caring and treating her as the family member that she is. I am a very active person and know many amazing walks around my area, you can rest assured that your dog will be well exercised and tired out when they return to you( in a good way!). I always remember that while most people see taking their dog out as a chore or something they have to do, that walk is the best part of the day for the dog, the thing they look forward to. For this reason it becomes the best part of my day too, and no walk will be short lived or boring. I also have some experience training dogs and puppies, through training my own. I know how to train basic skills like obedience, sitting, laying down, rolling over, and best of all high fives. I also trained my dog some key walking skills for when we are out, for example walking on a lead, stopping and staying at roads before crossing, fast and slow commands on the lead and returning when off the lead and called. If you have a puppy or dog who needs a little training I am happy to get involved and try and help. I currently work part time in after school clubs, for just a couple of hours a day Monday to Friday. I am out of the house from 2.30 to 4.30pm ish. I have the rest of the day at home so have plenty of time to care for, walk and train your doggies. If your dog is okay with being left alone for 2 hours at the most, I can board any day of the week and anytime. If your dog is not okay with being left alone for this length of time I can board on weekends where I have no work and all my time for your dog :) I have a fenced garden which they can explore, with no worry of them escaping. It is a fairly large garden with a small beck for them to splash in! I will walk them twice a day, or as specified by you, along with my own lovely dog to keep them company. If you provide me with feeding times and any specific details you would like me to follow, so that we can make their experience as homelike and comfortable as possible, that would be great and I will follow exactly.
“Davena was great with my two sausage dogs. She came over to meet them before the first drop in as well which helped to put them at ease when she arrived. Davena is a lovely person and I would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs.”
“Samn looked after my very energetic 14 weeks old kitten. She was very professional, caring and amazing with my kitten. She sent regular updates. Will definitely recommend her services and use her again”
“Jessica looked after my 5 cats with drop in visits for a week while we were away, I'm always nervous leaving them but this time could relax knowing they were all being looked after and cared for, the daily pictures and video's put my mind at ease. My youngest cat has cerebellar hypoplasia which means he's a little bit wobbly, he manages fine but can miss the litter tray, I use puppy pads in various places, this was no problem at all for Jessica, would highly recommend and would definitely trust her again for my next trip 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“I am delighted with the care that Ruby has given to my cat and how carefully she looked after my home - including alerting me when she had a concern. I will definitely be booking her in the future! The pictures that she sent me clearly showed that my lovely cat was completely safe and comfortable with her! She was even waiting for her after the first day or two! 😊❤️”

Find us on Facebook 🐾 Pet care is a natural and important part of my daily and weekly routine, and I make sure I dedicate the time needed to give every pet the attention they deserve. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure all visits and boarding commitments are carried out reliably and without feeling rushed. For cat pop-in visits, I offer flexible morning, afternoon, and evening slots. Each visit includes essentials like feeding, fresh water, litter cleaning, and a check on your cat’s wellbeing, along with plenty of affection, playtime, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. Alongside this, dog boarding is fully integrated into my routine at home. Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family, with regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I ensure they have a safe, comfortable, and calm environment where they can settle in and feel at home. Pet care is never something I rush or fit in around other priorities—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Whether I’m visiting your cat or welcoming your dog into my home, I am committed to being dependable, attentive, and providing the same level of care I would give my own pets. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are at the heart of the care I provide. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in safe, reliable hands, and I take that responsibility seriously with every visit and boarding. For added reassurance, I am fully insured and DBS checked. For cat pop-in visits, I ensure your home is kept secure at all times, following any instructions you provide and maintaining your cat’s usual routine to minimise stress. I always carry out careful checks to make sure your cat is safe, comfortable, and well, and I will keep you updated for complete peace of mind. When it comes to dog boarding, my home offers a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where dogs can relax and feel part of the family. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, behaviour, and needs, ensuring they are supervised, exercised appropriately, and given plenty of affection in a calm, structured setting. Building trust with both pets and their owners is incredibly important to me. I am attentive, respectful, and committed to creating a secure, loving environment where every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away.
“I couldn't be happier with the care Buddy received while he was with Leah, he is an older dog so I'm nervous to leave him but she showed so much love and patience with him. He had the best time, loads of walks and affection and I wouldn't hesitate to have him stay with her again. Thank you Leah!”
“Vicky was the best doggy friend for our french bulldog, he had the best time ever, and Vicky was so flexible and we were late back to pick him up and Vicky very kindly was so kind. We would 100% recommend.”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter all over the world and have cared for all kinds of animals, from goats and budgies to Great Danes. I’m experienced with reactive dogs, larger breeds, and pets with different personalities and needs, although most of my experience is with cats and dogs. I truly love all animals, and nothing makes me happier than a home full of fur family. Since I don’t have pets of my own at the moment, I feel very lucky to be able to give all that love and care to yours. I’m currently studying from home, so pet care fits in very naturally with my daily routine. I love getting out for walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening, which means pets in my care get plenty of attention, exercise, and company throughout the day. My afternoon walk is usually at least two hours, while morning walks tend to be around 30 to 60 minutes, so I’m well set up for dogs who enjoy regular outdoor time I always aim to make pets feel safe, settled, and loved, whether they are in my home or their own. I take time to understand each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, medication, sleeping arrangements, and any behavioural needs, so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I’m very mindful of safety on walks and in the home, especially with reactive dogs or larger breeds, and I always make sure pets are secure, comfortable, and well supervised. In a pet owner’s home, I treat both the space and the animals with great respect, keeping everything clean, calm, and consistent. My goal is always to give pets plenty of attention, affection, and reassurance so they feel happy and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have a 5yo bully mix called Lennie who is my best friend. Having Lennie has allowed me to explore the world of dogs and their needs. Lennie is very experienced in having other dogs in our home regularly, and excels particularly well with puppies as he is very patient, tolerant and likes to play gently. We have raised a little of 5 cocker spaniels and also have a 3 month old lurcher puppy who will reside in kennels as a working dog. Lennie has been pivotal in these pups becoming confident around large breeds, and all 5 of our puppies new owners have commended us on our rearing of them and how confident and well rounded they now are at 6 months old. I have poured a lot of time and money into researching how to keep my dog well stimulated, both physically and mentally and find great pleasure in learning how to keep him happy and healthy. I have joined Rover to look for dog friends that would enjoy our daily countryside walks with us, whilst enabling us to support those who may not always have to time to provide such exercise! I know many amazing walks around my area, you can rest assured that your dog will be well exercised and mentally stimulated when they return to you. I am also available for overnight boarding, you can be safe in the knowledge that your dog is in a loving home away from home environment with lots of cuddles, mental stimulation, and around other dogs for company. I work from home 3 days a week so am able to provide regular interaction and exercise with the dogs. Getting out on a walk is the perfect way for me to break up my day at home. I can provide 1:1 walks if necessary in instances where your dog is reactive, I have expedience with this so you can be confident that I your pup will be well managed. However, if your dog is comfortable with other dogs I would also bring my own along too. Dogs in my care can expect lots of attention and love, whilst also prioritising their own needs and wants. I appreciate all dogs have completely different personalities and would tailor my care to each individual. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and wherever they please in the house. Both my front and back gardens are completely secure and away from public access with good space to roam around, play and relax if the weather permits.

“We’ve been using Baz for a couple of months now and he’s is absolutely amazing! Winnie absolutely loves him and Paisley and he looks after her with so much love and care 🩷 We really couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter!”
“Samantha's partner Max looked after Bobby. It was a meet and greet for everyone so we could use Samantha and Max again, I felt happy leaving Bobby there and both dogs seemed to be happy with each other. I will definitely leave Bobby again.”
“Rosie is great. I used her services twice and I was very happy with the communication and updates/pictures/videos. She is very caring, gentle and kind. Benny is having a great time at her house while playing with Poppy. I would definitely recommend.”
“Sophie was so quick to respond on the app and keep me updated all day! She was flexible and worked around what I needed!! She was gentle and kind with Hugo and he had the best day!”
“Merlin loved his first day with Carrie and her lovely dog Bella - they had loads of outdoor time and plenty of time for snoozing too, he can’t wait to come back and so glad to have someone local who he enjoys the company of! 💚”
About: I’ve been in love with animals since I was little, I’ve studied animal behaviour and biology for three+ years at university and did and animal management course in college. I myself have three kitties who are my life, now I moved to university I don’t get to see them as much so I’m wanting to fill that void and look after/walk other peoples babies. I’ve walked dogs throughout my childhood and into being an young adult due to so much work experience with college and university, I think my experience will keep your mind at ease because I have a log of experience with dogs. Right now I’m part time working, I have specific days off which are Tuesday and Wednesdays. When I am working I had 4-5 hour shifts so can fit around that. My shifts are done couple weeks in advance so I can schedule in advance if needs be If it is for a couple hours board I have space for a crate if needed, I do live in an apartment and would only be able to take on small dogs but I have near a lot of fields and walking paths I will be able to take the dog out as frequently as you would like. Walking wise I love walking myself so your pup will get the exercise it needs whilst you are away
“Leah is amazing, she is incredibly responsive and provides regular updates which keeps my mind at ease. Toby absolutely loves her and I can tell he has a fantastic time with Leah. He is such an energetic boy but he seems to be relaxed with Leah which is great. I can’t recommend her enough, whenever we need our pooch looking after Leah is the first person I go to! Thanks so much.”

I studied animal behaviour in college and have had hands on experience with this so I am knowledgeable in reading behaviour of dogs, cats, etcetera, so I am very vigilant.
About: I grew up with three cats and two dogs. I have a deep understanding of feline body language and emotional needs. I am patient in building their trust and happy to play with them. I have just completed my Master's degree at the University of Leeds and am approaching graduation. I'm currently in a free and fulfilling life transition, travelling and writing as a way of exploring the world. My schedule is highly flexible, and I'm available for most of the day to give cats my full attention. Pet care isn't a chore for me, because it's a natural part of daily life, and I genuinely cherish the quiet, gentle moments spent with animals. I have lived in both a house with a private garden and a high-rise city apartment, which gives me hands-on experience caring for cats in very different environments. I understand the specific considerations each setting requires: in a garden, that means monitoring escape routes and keeping an eye out for other animals; in an apartment, it means securing windows and ensuring balcony safety. Wherever I am, I always carry out a quick safety assessment so cats feel relaxed and well looked-after even in an unfamiliar space. I'm also a passionate photographer, and I love documenting the little moments of a cat's day through photos and videos. Owners can always count on regular updates, so they feel connected and reassured even when they're away.
About: Since childhood, I have always had a family dog, so being around and caring for dogs has been a big part of my life. I’ve been volunteering most weekends at Holly Hedge Dog Sanctuary, whenever my work schedule allows. During my time there, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of dogs, each with different personalities and needs. This experience has not only shown my love for animals but has also helped me develop a strong confidence in looking after dogs and understanding their behavior. It's something I really enjoy and feel passionate about. My work schedule changes each week, so feel free to send me a message! Your dog will always be my top priority, and I will make sure to find time to give them the attention they deserve. I’m currently living in military accommodation on Catterick Camp. While my living area isn’t very spacious, I can guarantee that your dog will receive plenty of attention and care. I’ll make sure to take them out for walks in a secure and safe environment where they can enjoy themselves. Your dog's well-being is important to me, and I want to ensure they have the exercise, love and attention they need.
About: Hi, my name is Sicong Lu, you can call me Judy! I am a very communicative and patient person. I am an international student from China. I love dogs very much and have great enthusiasm and patience with them.

“Daisy had a wonderful 10 days with Leah! She was kept busy with lots of walks, gun and cuddles, and Leah kept us updated with photos and videos throughout. Not sure what Leah did, but Daisy came back noticeably better behaved. We would definitely book again. Thank you Leah! 🐾”
“Want to say a massive thankyou. My young dog bella was very happy here. She usually doesnt like being with strangers but she seemed to settle really quick. I could see this with all the pictures i was sent while she was there. Thankyou Baz. I will book bella in again.”
“Amy was brilliant, so welcoming and great communication start to finish. Goose clearly felt happy and he was the calmest he's been when we've picked him up from anywhere! Absolutely would recommend and we'll be booking again in the future 😊”
“Another great trip for Hazel in her home from home (her third stay with Leah-Dionne now). She always looks so healthy and happy when I pick her up, and while we all miss her, we know she's having the best time. She even now has a boyfriend in Stanley, one of Leah's pugs 😍😆”
“Beth and Ross made me feel at ease, as soon as I dropped Snoop off. You can tell they are absolute dog lovers, and snoop took to them instantly. I received plenty of updates and pictures whilst I was away, and they seemed upset to see him go. I will 100% use them when I next need a dog sitter.”
“Rafael looked after our two dogs just for one night initially. She was great with them, sent through regular updates with photographs and was flexible. Would definitely recommend and will use her again.”
“Gino has had an absolute ball with Andrew and Nicky. He has walked miles exploring new places, visited China Town on the bus and to met all the locals. Highly recommend Andrew and nick to look after your pup. You will be reassured and content knowing your pup is not only looked after but having an adventure as well xxx”
About: I’ve taken care of/ owned lots of doggos, love walking and I have a lot of love for all kinds of dogs, I grew up with Rottweilers so not afraid of big doggy’s and only work part time so any dogs that stay will be with me all day and get lots of love. Only willing to have the one pup when my crazy spaniel is home but happy to have two when she’s away so I can put my full love and attention into the dogs and so your dog won’t get overwhelmed. I’ve looked after senior dogs and puppies so used to the chaos of them both!!! I’ve got a lot of love to give and hope you put your trust in me to take your furr baby we will both keep each other company while my partner is away ❤️ I Work half a day Friday and a full day Saturday but can take dogs from Saturday evening after 5:30 pm contact me if you would need dog care on those days in advance and I might be able to take them on a Saturday :) Our spaniel is taken out for a walk morning and evening and let out early morning and late night we don’t have a garden but we are in the middle of the Yorkshire dale and have a park over the road from us so toilet time isn’t hard we also take our pup to doggy fields a lot to let of steam which will happen if your dog stays with us

About: With years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I understand that leaving your beloved companion with someone new can feel daunting. That's why I focus on building a trusting relationship with both you and your pet from our very first meeting, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs. Pet care is my full-time job, which means I’m fully dedicated to providing consistent, reliable care throughout the week. I structure my days around pet visits, dog walks, and day boarding, allowing me to be flexible with timings where needed. This flexibility means I can accommodate morning, lunchtime, and afternoon visits, as well as regular weekly routines or one-off bookings. Because this is my main focus, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve without rushing between commitments. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and family-based environment where animals are supervised throughout the day. I keep numbers small to ensure each pet receives individual attention and to maintain a relaxed atmosphere. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special requirements before their stay. This includes feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise levels, and any anxiety or behavioral considerations. For home visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel secure in their own environment. I ensure doors and gates are secure, provide fresh water, feeding, litter tray cleaning, and enrichment or companionship during each visit. Trust is very important to me, so I treat every home with respect and care, and I keep pet owners updated with messages, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: Been around animals my whole life. Grew up on a farm. Dogs, cats, chickens, rats, lizards, snakes and the list goes on. I have cared for senior animals and am comfortable with medication administration. I have the spare time and I enjoy all kinds of animals so I want to see if pet sitting is a good fit for me. I am a full time home maker with a flexible schedule. I can easily arrange my current commitments to fit most pet care needs. I also have a car. I have a large fenced yard out in the country on a quiet secluded road. Additionally I have access to multiple fields and walking paths.
About: Always had a dog in my life. Whether that be my own or other people's. Since a young age, I have looked after dogs of all kinds. At age 10 I started walking neighbours dogs. At age 12 I helped bring up a litter of pups and watched the mummy give birth. At age 15 I got my own puppy he was a cross breed and he was a very reactive dog but I trained him to be a good boy. At age 17 to 19 I rescued a female staffy and an American bulldog from the kennels. Had a break and then bought my simba when he was 8 weeks old he is friendly and well behaved and he's the best company. I tell him all my secrets and he has never spoke a word 😂. I've no commitments other than the school run and a typical day with simba is breakfast then a nice long walk in the fields. Lots of playing fetch and exploring. Simba then likes to have a nap. He wakes up has his dinner then wants to play catch or fetch. We spend lot of time in the garden if the weather's OK. When the kids come home simba likes to play with them he enjoys ripping up paper and plastic wrappers just making a mess really 😂 it's all good aslong as he's happy and id treat your dog as if it's my own ☺️ they are in safe hands. We then go on another walk to the park after tea then we come home and get cosy. The garden is fenced. Simba can also keep your dogs company. The children are gentle and love dogs. Please don't ask me to look after your dog if it is NOT OK left alone as I will have to be out on the school run during the week twice a day. I'll never leave dogs in the same room alone. We as a family look forward to meeting your fur babies.
