“John & Marion are amazing, after meeting Barney and showing him around their home we booked him in for a couple of days and he had a great time. We received pictures and updates which was very comforting after leaving Barney for the first time at 4 and half years old. He is already booked in for a longer stay and the stress of leaving him when we go away has been taken away. Thank you guys & see you soon”
“Again we used d nicoleta as our sitter and once again we were blown away by how much of a perfect service she provided, Constant updates and videos, very loving and attentive to our dog. We would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. We certainly have found our sitter of dita and will continue to use in the future. Thanks again for your help”
“Megan and her partner were great with Patch. He had an amazing time and settled really well into their environment. Both very experienced and with this being Patch’s first time we were a little nervous however they reassured us and kept us up to date and there were no issues at all. We loved that they were both relaxed and delivered a 5 star service. We’ll definitely be using them again.”

“We couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters than Ebony and Reuben! They were absolutely wonderful – friendly, caring, and professional from start to finish. They followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated frequently, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Marlow was clearly very well looked after and happy in their care. Truly top-notch service – we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters.”
“Karen offered Sodapop a relaxing and secure environment for her overnight stay. Karen is clearly an experienced and knowledgeable dog lover and we felt extremely comfortable leaving Sodapop in her care. She provided regular updates and photos of their time together which was very reassuring. We will definitely use Karen's services again.”
“Jun and her husband Xi were amazing. Chacha spent a week with them while we were away and he seems very happy and enjoyed the stay with them. I received regular update and photos everyday. They are very experienced and good at dealing with dogs, Xi also provided me with advice on Chacha’s social with other dogs which is very appreciated. Overall I am very happy and strongly recommended them. Will definitely book with them again. Thanks Jun and Xi!”
“Lucy had another fabulous stay with Danielle and Ryan, who she has completely fallen in love with! They absolutely cater for both her bouncy and cuddly sides, and take great care of her. Due to challenging circumstances at our end, they offered to extend Lucy's stay, which was extremely appreciated. We have already rebooked!”
About: Me and my partner are new to Rover, but not new to caring for animals. We’ve both grown up in homes full of pets and have years of hands‑on experience with training, walking and looking after our family dogs. Our homely flat is a calm, safe space, and we’re confident giving pets the same love, structure and attention they’re used to at home. Our routine is flexible enough that we can build pet care into every day. My partner works from home a couple of days a week and so do I, so one of us would be around in the day. We are usually home in the evenings, which makes walks, feeding and play straightforward. On the weekends we like to do walks and have some downtime too, so fitting their needs around our schedule will feel very natural. In our home, pets get a calm and safe environment. We keep doors secured, remove anything that could be hazardous, and make sure pets have a comfortable space to relax. Walks, feeding and play are supervised, and we will stick to the routines that owners share with us - so that your furry friend feels settled and secure. We treat every pet as if they were our own and keep communication open throughout their stay, so that you can be reassured that they are being loved and cared for.
“This was Charm's first stay with a dog sitter in a couple of years. Savina kept us updated with photos and really put our minds at ease. Charm was super chilled when we arrived to pick her up and barely moved, so we know she was comfortable. We're really happy and will definitely book with Savina again - thank you so much!”
“2nd time Soraya has looked after bongo and he has had a blast for the last 10 days!! So lucky to have found someone so warm and loving for bongo whilst I’m away. I’ve already booked his next stay :)”
“We honestly couldn’t recommend Maria enough! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Maria were so caring and attentive and kept us updated throughout, which gave us complete peace of mind. Arthur was so happy when we picked him up and it was clear he had been well looked after and given lots of love and attention. It’s such a relief knowing you have someone you can genuinely trust with your dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Maria again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him — we really appreciate it! 🐾❤️”
“Nichola was exceptional! She was incredibly accommodating when I was abroad and had to arrange dropping Ruby off through my boyfriend. I got lots of updates and Nichola even took her to the pet store to pick out a chew. Ruby didn’t want to leave in the end!”
“Claire and Liam looked after our dog Bella for 4 nights while we were away and she came back a very happy and tired dog! Their own two dogs are lovely and welcomed Bella nicely into the home. Claire and Liam clearly care a lot about dogs and it shows in all the adventures they took Bella on, the pictures the kept us updated with were exceptionally cute. Would definitely recommend 😀”

“Alex was great looking after Poe and Eddie over Christmas! His communication was amazing and he sent lots of photos and videos, he was accommodating by coming to me to collect keys and my cats looked forward to his visit. Thank you!”
“Rhian is super responsible and a great communicator. It has given me great peace of mind to have her looking after my cat while I've been gone. She has followed every instruction and request to the T, and her reports of her daily visits are detailed and thorough. My cat made a few messes, but she dealt with them immediately. On top of that, when I had to extend my time away and asked if I could book her in for additional days at super short notice, she immediately made herself available, which alleviated a lot of stress for me! My Monty was in very capable hands and that's priceless. Could not recommend Rhian enough!”
“Maream has been a real life saver for me. I had to unexpectedly extend my trip due to a cancelled flight, and Maream made herself available on super short notice. She and my previous cat sitter took initiative to walk through the care monty needs and to organise a handover of my keys. She gave me detailed reports every day, and went above and beyond to make my Monty comfortable. She made sure to clean up any messes immediately and gave monty a lot of cuddle and play time. Maream also decided to put some "cat TV" videos on which I know monty loves! Due to the fact I was still stuck abroad, we were unable to have a meet and greet beforehand. Despite that, Maream immediately put me at ease with her upbeat nature and great communication. Will definitely book in again!”
“Ada did an excellent job with Alfie, who is a n anxious cat and does not accept easily new people in the house. He usually run off. She was able to give him some treats and get him to stay around for a little time. She was easy to communicate with and followed all the instructions. I rebooked her already. Thank you Ada!”
“Amelia went above and beyond to make sure our cats were looked after and cared for. The house was kept clean and odour free, and the cats were both happy and healthy. We received regular, informative updates.It was evident that the cats had been played with and fussed over. Would definitely use again.”
“Yu Xuan was a wonderful sitter for my cat, Gizmo! I'd give her more than 5 stars if I could. She helped us right at the last minute which was really helpful. Her communication was great, lots of updates and pictures which was reassuring. We have a persian cat and she cleaned his eyes really well. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy cat. Thanks again we would love you to look after gizzy in future xx”
“Another lovely few days of visits to Galaxy by Joy. Galaxy is usually terrified of anyone except me but she allows Joy to stroke and tickle her which really puts my mind at ease. Until the next time!”
“Izzy was wonderful and communicated every time she attended with updates and pictures. We can't recommend her enough. We were totally reassured that Izzy was looking after our little Margot.”
“So pleased we booked with Sena! She was so friendly and patient and we loved the videos of the cuddles she was getting with our (usually very shy) cat. Thank you Sena, see you next time we go away!”
“Very friendly, very professional, answered all questions/ messages quickly and clearly. Kept our cat happy and safe , played with him and sent regular updates, even collected a parcel from our mail room for us , couldn’t fault.”
About: I’m a lifelong cat lover and proud owner of my own cat, Penelope, so I understand just how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve been around and caring for cats from a young age and have experience with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, reliable and genuinely enjoy spending time with cats. I’m happy to feed them, provide fresh water, clean litter trays, play with them and give them plenty of love and attention. I’ll always take the time to make each cat feel comfortable and will treat your pet with the same care and affection I give my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages during visits, so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands. ❤️🐾
About: I’ve grown up with cats since I was six and have cared for cats with very different personalities over the years. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter trays, playtime and keeping an eye on their general wellbeing. I’m also very used to reading a cat’s body language — some cats want lots of attention and cuddles, while others need time and space before they trust someone, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. I’ll follow your cat’s usual routine closely and keep you updated with photos while you’re away. My own pets live with my family in my hometown, so I currently have no pets with me in Sheffield.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sheffield
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Yves and Nick are great sitters. Very friendly and clearly love dogs. My dog had a lovely day with them - lots of attention, walks, and cuddles. Communication was easy and I got lots of updates throughout the day. Will definitely book again. Thank you!”
“Really great to visit my home city of Sheffield and to be able to leave the dog. Thanks for all the great photos and updates and for the late evening booking so we could go out with friends - it was great knowing the dog was being taken care of so well! 🐾🐾”
“Jun was so kind and Sydney loved being with her. She kept in touch with us regularly and shared a in-depth summary of their day together. I highly recommend Jun and look forward to having her spend time with Sydney again.”
“Whisky had an amazing time during daycare with Yu En. She was walked, fed and entertained. We received many nice photos of her. Yu En is reliable, responds to messages promptly and she truly cares about dogs. We can't wait to leave Whisky with her again!”
“My dog has had one afternoon with Amy so far. Amy was lovely with my rescue dog, who can get very scared. There was a little tension when the three dogs first met but Amy understood the situation and sensibly separated them briefly, then gently introduced them to each other, and then quickly managed to settle them all down for a harmonious and contented afternoon together. My dog is now booked in for a two night stay and I have full confidence in Amy’s ability to look after her sensitively and safely.”
“Wenyue and her partner were very kind and patient with our 2 elderly border terriers. Great communication and it was lovely to receive regular updates and videos. Will certainly use again when we’re in Sheffield. Recommended.”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with both large and small breeds, from German Shepherds to little terriers. I currently have a 6-month-old Sprocker Spaniel, so I’m very familiar with the energy, enthusiasm, and affection that dogs bring into our lives. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely love, whether that’s taking them on long walks, playing with them, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to know their pet is in safe, caring hands. Alongside caring for healthy, active dogs, I also have experience looking after senior dogs with mobility issues, ensuring they receive the patience, support, and extra care they need. I’ve cared for rescue dogs, helped build confidence in dogs struggling with social anxiety, and supported dogs with medical conditions, including epilepsy, always following owners’ guidance and routines closely. My experience with dogs of different ages, temperaments, and needs has helped me become adaptable, attentive, and confident in providing the individual care each dog deserves. I work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day. I have my own dog, so caring for pets is already a big part of my daily routine. We enjoy three walks a day (one long walk and two shorter walks), along with playtime, training sessions, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddles. I like to pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy levels, and mood so I can tailor their day to what they enjoy most and what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets are treated like part of the family. I take the time to get to know each dog’s routine, preferences, and needs to help them feel secure and settled. Whether caring for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I ensure they receive regular exercise, playtime, mental stimulation, fresh water, feeding according to instructions, and plenty of affection. I always monitor how a dog is feeling and adapt activities to suit their energy level and comfort, while maintaining a safe and trustworthy environment at all times.
About: I’m experienced with walking everything from tiny Pugs to energetic Labradors, and I tailor every walk to each dog’s breed, age, health, and the weather. Some dogs love long, lively adventures, while others prefer a gentle plod around the block — I’m happy to match their pace. I have many years of experience caring for flat‑nosed breeds and understand their specific needs, especially around breathing and temperature. I also have hands‑on experience boarding a Labrador while she was in heat, so I’m confident managing dogs with additional care requirements. I’m currently available throughout the week, and I offer boarding both midweek and at weekends. Whether you need quick toilet‑break visits or long, enriching walks, I can fit into your dog’s routine and provide exactly what they need. I have a dog‑free, child‑free home, which means a calm and predictable environment for your dog. Although I don’t have a garden, I take dogs out multiple times a day for toilet breaks in addition to their walks, so they get plenty of chances to stretch their legs and feel comfortable. In your home, I’ll follow the exact routine you set — you know what works best for your dog, and I’m here to keep things consistent and stress‑free.
About: Ever since I was a baby I’ve always been around animals, whether it be cats, puppies, or difficult dogs, I’ve always loved animals. Lenny, my parents dog, I trained to be responsive to my instructions and have a wide array of tricks. I would love to give all the love I have for my own dog to someone else’s whilst I’m here at university! I am currently a full-time teacher, so I am available to look after/walk your animals on Friday, Saturday or Sunday at any time, as well as in the evenings throughout the week. I live in a secure first-floor flat with access to a private balcony. I don’t have a garden, however, I live extremely close to local parks and have access to them 24/7, so your pet will still have plenty of opportunities for outdoor time and exercise. The flat is secure, and there is no way your pet would be able to escape.
About: I may be new to professional dog sitting, but caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve had my own dog since I was little, so I understand how much love, attention, and care they need. I’ve also looked after a family friend’s dog and regularly check in on other people’s dogs, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have also had a part time job at a dog walking company for a family friend where i have built my skills with understanding a dogs needs. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want someone to give my own. i am currently a student, but i am only in three days a week where the most is 3 hours so i am available all the time. so i can bring your dog the best care they need. When looking after a pet in their own home, I’d make sure they feel comfortable, happy and well cared for. I’d stick to their normal routine as much as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime and lots of attention. I’d also make sure they have everything they need, keep their space clean and give them plenty of company so they don’t feel lonely while their owner is away.
“Callum has been fantastic with Ben. He clearly spends a lot of time with him, playing and making sure he is happy. Ben is an older dog who likes taking the walks at his own pace, and Callum has been wonderful with this. He has been really flexible and accommodating when my days run long, which is a great help. Ben heads straight in to Callum’s home every day, so he obviously enjoys it. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone as a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“Our labrador husky stopped with Erin back in March for the day. She had a great time playing with skye and was well looked after. Would recommend Erin to anyone who needs doggy day care.”
“Lydia has been amazing with our little Frida! She's an anxious dog so Lydia was happy to meet us the day before for a walk so Frida could get used to her. On the day Lydia was super reassuring, sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Frida seemed really happy and relaxed when we picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Lydia again in the near future and totally recommend her”
About: I am a caring, responsible and trustworthy animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable while in my care. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cuddles and regular updates for owners, so you always know your pet is in good hands. I am patient with nervous pets, energetic with playful pets, and gentle with older pets who need extra care. Your pet will be treated with love, attention and kindness just like family. I take pet safety seriously and always aim to create a calm, clean and positive environment. I have a flexible schedule and can provide loving, reliable care throughout the week and weekends. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise and care during their stay with me. I provide a safe, clean and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication and routines. Pets are supervised carefully, treated with kindness, and their safety is always my top priority.
About: Me and my family, since I was very little, we were taking care of rescue dogs and cats (I’m coming from Greece in which there are many stray animals) until they would find a family. I have a lot of experience with any kind of breed, age and health conditions as many of them needed medication to get healthy again. Except this experience of mine, I have one dog back home and I miss him. This motivates me a lot to take care of other pets and give them the love I would give to mine🩵 I’m a MA graduate with part time work in weekends so during the week I have plenty of time to meet and take care of your furry loved ones. I can maintain a safe and calm environment in owner’s space for their pet. Unfortunately the place I live doesn’t not allow pets, so I can only do visits and take care of a pet in their familiar environment.
“Amber was great with our 5 month old energetic pup! We were a bit nervous about leaving him for the first time, but we shouldn’t have worried as he seemed to have a great time and came back to us tired and happy 😊”
About: I grew up animal obsessed and currently have an elderly greyhound called Stanley! I'm happy looking after animals of different shapes, sizes and personalities as I’ve had experience of dogs from springer spaniels and chihuahuas to Bernese mountain dogs and XL bully’s. Whilst I was at university, I worked at the RSPCA cruelty centre in Liverpool. I have experience caring for animals who may need more time warming up to people/nervous. There I met a whole range different dogs with the aim of socialisation and enrichment for those with a bad start in life. My boy is now 14 and I’d love to spent time with more dogs, taking them out and giving them love. I work very flexibly from home, normally until 3pm with an hour lunch break so doing a few check in’s/walks a day would be easy to accommodate. I work from home, normally working between 7am and 3pm, I can do walks/visits in lunch breaks at 12pm and after my work hours. Similarly, I can work from your house if you need care all day. As most of my experience has been with nervous dogs, I am a big believer in building rapport and listening to body language. Trust is super important regardless of whether I am out on a walk or keeping your pet company within your house. I love enrichment activities and if there is training you’d like me to support with then I’d be more than happy to help. I am happy to offer an initial meet and greet before a booking is confirmed :)

“Alex walked my labrador Ruby today and did a great job. He was responsive by message and reassuring about all my questions and bits of information. He arrived on time and took Ruby on a walk around my local area, keeping her on leash as requested. He also fed her and played with her a bit, and he uploaded plenty of photos and info about her walk. Thanks Alex! Would book with you again”
“Absolutely perfect with our little terror. We booked last minute and she got back to us really quickly and had no issues with any requests. Was happy to come into our home and walk our dog. Cannot thank her enough as she has been a life saver. Could not recommend enough!”
“Amelia had been absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Pedro had so much fun on his walk and always comes back worn out and ready to nap. She's always been perfectly on time and always makes sure the dogs are back in the house, happy and safe before locking up and leaving them. Cannot praise her enough, just brilliant!”
About: Your pets will be spoiled rotten with me! I've cared for dogs and cats for years, including many rescues with special needs I'm very observant and detail oriented, if I notice anything unusual like a limp or change in appetite, you'll hear from me straight away. Expect plenty of photo updates while you're away because I can't help myself! Prefer daytime drop-offs for boarding it helps dogs settle in more easily and reduces first night anxiety. I was working part-time and recently took a break, so I have a pretty flexible schedule with plenty of time for pet care. Most weekdays I'm free, and I can also cover weekends when needed. I'm usually home and love spending quality time with the pets I'm sitting, I live in a flat with access to a safe shared garden. I love taking dogs out for walks in the park and longer hikes when the weather's nice. Your pet will be well looked after and comfortable with me.
“Our dogs loved Laura! Right from the moment she came to do a meet and greet at our house. Her communication is brilliant, and both dogs looked like they had the best time on their walk. We will definitely be using Laura again. Thank you for walking them and giving us peace of mind while we were on holiday!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and now that I’ve had to leave my 4 legged friends at home to come to uni I’m wanting to fill the k9 sized hole in my life and have a great time with your pets! I live a 5 minute walk away from both the Botanical Gardens and Endcliffe park so walks definitely won’t get boring. I’ll be available to spend all day with your doggos as my university semester has come to an end and I am at home full time. I’ll be in Sheffield all of the time so checking in with your pets will be no hassle at all. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Thank you for taking a look x
About: I provide a calm, clean, and stress-free environment where cats can settle in at their own pace. With over seven years of experience caring for cats, I understand feline behaviour and know how to care for both shy and affectionate cats. I pay close attention to their eating, litter box habits, and overall wellbeing, and I’m happy to follow any special care instructions. I also send regular photo and video updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your cat is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time working from home, which allows me to give cats plenty of attention throughout the day. I can follow their usual routine for feeding, playtime, and rest, and I’m available on both weekdays and weekends with advance notice. Your cat’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. My home is clean, quiet, and suitable for cats to relax and feel secure. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding routines, litter box cleaning, medication if required, and any special preferences. I always make sure doors and windows are secure and never leave pets unattended for long periods. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I usually only board one household’s cat(s) at a time, so they can enjoy a calm and stress-free environment.
“Bethan has been walking our lovely old boy Gryph for a few months now and she is fantastic with him. Bethan shows real care and compassion to Gryph and we know he looks forward to his walks with her (she'll often send us hilarious photos of Gryph waiting at the door for her) Bethan always communicates really well with us and will update us on how Gryph has been throughout the day: she's also really good at getting back to us about any changes to the walking schedule and is always as flexible as she can be. We cannot recommend Bethan highly enough. Faye, Alex and Gryphon”
“Silvia is a natural around dogs. Our beagle at least felt completely at ease when meeting her for the first time and enjoyed her walks by the looks of the photos which are so cute! She is very responsive with a flexible schedule which makes booking her a breeze. What’s more she is the full month offering every type of service from dog walking, to house sitting and boarding! Thank you Silvia”
“Thank you for taking care of Beetle and being so flexible/helpful! Yung Hon has made my transition into school 100% less stressful by taking such good care of my pup.”

I have a home with a garden which I can host your pet in. I ask that you supply their usual supplies (food, accessories, toys, bedding), so they can be comfortable away from home. As I have 2 cats in my home, who are still getting used to dogs, I will not be able to provide overnight boarding. However, I am happy to look after your pet in your home overnight.

“I highly recommend David as a dog walker! He is kind, caring and considerate. He took the time to come for a meet and greet to find out what Norma's needs are and how we want her cared for. David has been excellent with his communication, really quick to reply and really detailed. He left great detailed feedback on his walk and some lovely pictures. Thank you David :)”

The least i could do is take daily care of them and feel their love in my life! I am taking care of pets to feel comfortable in every single way! The most common way is to love them and respect them .
About: Ever since I was a small child, I have been completely obsessed with animals, particularly dogs!! This passion has led me to become very experienced with dogs of many different breeds, sizes and temperaments. I have volunteered at a retired greyhound kennel and worked over the summer at a dog training and boarding facility, where I have gained lots of hands-on experience caring for and handling dogs. This has included following individual feeding instructions, exercising dogs appropriately (whether that be a walk or time in the field), bathing them as well as providing enrichment! Whilst working in these kennel settings I have handled both human and dog reactive dogs, so I am confident in keeping reactive dogs both safe and happy. I also have a Romanian rescue dog of my own. She is very wary of strangers, so I understand first-hand how difficult it can be to find someone you can trust with your nervous pup. I know that some dogs need a little extra patience, reassurance and time to build trust, and I am more than happy to give them that. I’m also very experienced with small animals, having owned several hamsters and gerbils, as well as having experience caring for cats. I am a first year Zoology student at the University of Sheffield, and I would love to spend my time at university doing something I genuinely love - looking after animals! 🐾 I am a university student, so I have lots of weekend availability!! My weekly schedule can vary, so please get in touch in advance if you would like a walk or drop-in visit so I can make sure I’m available at that time😊 I take the safety of all the animals under my care very seriously. Through my work at the kennels I have completed training in both keeping the dogs physically safe as well as recognising signs that a dog may be unwell e.g upset stomach, changes in behaviour. I am happy to keep dogs on the lead/long line as well as letting them off if they have a reliable recall and it is safe to do so. I will always follow your instructions and keep you updated!!

“Karolina looked after Jarvis for 8 nights. Unfortunately Jarvis caught a vomiting bug a day or so before we left him with her but she handled this very well, took him to the vet when he struggled to get better and kept us informed. She obviously loves dogs and we are very, very happy with the care Jarvis received and all the photos we received. I recommend Karolina unreservedly and can only hope she is available next time we need a sitter.”
“Ellen was truly fantastic and very thoughtful and considerate of our rescue dog's needs. We had regular photos and updates from her, and we felt so reassured during Pudding's stay that Ellen was giving her lots of love and attention, as well as there being lots of care navigating walks around the hot weather which also helped us to know that Pudding was in safe hands. Puds came home very relaxed and happy and with a new toy, and we quickly booked for her to stay with Ellen again without hesitation! Would definitely recommend her to everyone needing a reassuring and caring place for your doggy!”
“Dottie had a fantastic time with Amy. She was really well looked after, had a lovely time with the other dogs and came back to us very relaxed. We already have more bookings in with Amy, and would not hesitate to recommend her 100%.”
“John & Marion are amazing, after meeting Barney and showing him around their home we booked him in for a couple of days and he had a great time. We received pictures and updates which was very comforting after leaving Barney for the first time at 4 and half years old. He is already booked in for a longer stay and the stress of leaving him when we go away has been taken away. Thank you guys & see you soon”
“Denzel has loved staying with Wenyue. This was the 1st time he has stayed with her. She kept me updated with daily photos and videos while i was away with work. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be booking Denzel in for another stay with her in the very near”
“Megan and her partner were great with Patch. He had an amazing time and settled really well into their environment. Both very experienced and with this being Patch’s first time we were a little nervous however they reassured us and kept us up to date and there were no issues at all. We loved that they were both relaxed and delivered a 5 star service. We’ll definitely be using them again.”
“We had one tired but happy doggy 🐶 when we picked up our lovely boy again from Erin’s xxx lots of lovely walks for him and loads of cuddles and photos of his stay. Wonderful as always 🤩🤩❤️❤️ thank you Erin xxx”
“We couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters than Ebony and Reuben! They were absolutely wonderful – friendly, caring, and professional from start to finish. They followed all of our instructions perfectly and kept us updated frequently, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Marlow was clearly very well looked after and happy in their care. Truly top-notch service – we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters.”
“Jun and her husband Xi were amazing. Chacha spent a week with them while we were away and he seems very happy and enjoyed the stay with them. I received regular update and photos everyday. They are very experienced and good at dealing with dogs, Xi also provided me with advice on Chacha’s social with other dogs which is very appreciated. Overall I am very happy and strongly recommended them. Will definitely book with them again. Thanks Jun and Xi!”
“Stanley had a great time with Lesley. He had plenty of lengthy woodland walks during his week stay. Lesley kept us up to date with his daily activities with numerous photos everyday so we could enjoy our holiday in peace knowing he was having such a great time. 100% will be using Lesley again should we need to!”
About: Me and my partner are new to Rover, but not new to caring for animals. We’ve both grown up in homes full of pets and have years of hands‑on experience with training, walking and looking after our family dogs. Our homely flat is a calm, safe space, and we’re confident giving pets the same love, structure and attention they’re used to at home. Our routine is flexible enough that we can build pet care into every day. My partner works from home a couple of days a week and so do I, so one of us would be around in the day. We are usually home in the evenings, which makes walks, feeding and play straightforward. On the weekends we like to do walks and have some downtime too, so fitting their needs around our schedule will feel very natural. In our home, pets get a calm and safe environment. We keep doors secured, remove anything that could be hazardous, and make sure pets have a comfortable space to relax. Walks, feeding and play are supervised, and we will stick to the routines that owners share with us - so that your furry friend feels settled and secure. We treat every pet as if they were our own and keep communication open throughout their stay, so that you can be reassured that they are being loved and cared for.
“This was Charm's first stay with a dog sitter in a couple of years. Savina kept us updated with photos and really put our minds at ease. Charm was super chilled when we arrived to pick her up and barely moved, so we know she was comfortable. We're really happy and will definitely book with Savina again - thank you so much!”
“2nd time Soraya has looked after bongo and he has had a blast for the last 10 days!! So lucky to have found someone so warm and loving for bongo whilst I’m away. I’ve already booked his next stay :)”
“We honestly couldn’t recommend Maria enough! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease leaving our dog in her care. Maria were so caring and attentive and kept us updated throughout, which gave us complete peace of mind. Arthur was so happy when we picked him up and it was clear he had been well looked after and given lots of love and attention. It’s such a relief knowing you have someone you can genuinely trust with your dog and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Maria again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him — we really appreciate it! 🐾❤️”
“We are always so happy to leave Selma in the trusty hands of George (and Rebecca). She always seems happy, content and perhaps even better behaved than at home 😂 Would recommend to anyone.”
“Claire and Liam looked after our dog Bella for 4 nights while we were away and she came back a very happy and tired dog! Their own two dogs are lovely and welcomed Bella nicely into the home. Claire and Liam clearly care a lot about dogs and it shows in all the adventures they took Bella on, the pictures the kept us updated with were exceptionally cute. Would definitely recommend 😀”
