“Megan was amazing, this was a hard leave for me due to Tilly having a few health issues over the last few weeks. I chose Megan due to Tilly been the only animal there. Tilly was so happy when she came home I was updated daily on her feeding been happy as well has her medication and if she had any seizures. Thank you again Megan”
“Picky had an amazing time with Karen. I could tell he absolutely loved her. On our side, we were really happy with everything too. She asked many pertinent questions, we could tell that she really knows her way around dogs. Picky being epileptic, we really wanted somebody thorough and trustworthy with his medication. She didn’t disappoint and we are looking forward to booking her again!”
“Minjia did a really great job with Franklin and helped us feel at ease while we traveled. For close to a week she made sure to provide us with consistent updates and pictures/videos, and we really appreciated all the time, care and effort she put in.”
“Danielle and Ryan are lovely, friendly, enthusiastic and kind people who our dog, Lucy, instantly connected with. Our premeet at their home and local park filled me with confidence they would provide a safe and happy stay. They kindly sent messages and photos through the stay, including adventures out in the Peaks! Lucy clearly had a great time, and I have already rebooked!”
“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 :)”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Communication was excellent throughout, giving us complete peace of mind. Oz absolutely loved his stay with Ebony, Rueben, Shaz, and Mark, and was clearly in cuddle heaven! He was treated like one of the family, and we came home to a very happy boy. We wouldn't hesitate to book again—highly recommended! Thank you so much.”
“Liz was great with our miniature schnauzer Niles. He stayed with Liz overnight and settled in with her very quickly. Liz was kind enough to send regular snaps of Niles through the day and you could tell he was having a lovely time. We would definitely recommend Liz to other dog owners and will definitely be in touch again!”
“Mirela-Gabriela was a live saver after our planned sitter cancelled last minute, and we couldn’t be more grateful to her! She was understanding with Freddy’s previous anxiety and made him feel so at home, with cuddles on the couch and sleeping on her bed too. She sent lots of photos and went above and beyond to make Fred’s holiday special - thank you so much! We will absolutely be booking again (with much more notice next time!)”
“5 star care again for our beloved boy Marley. He’s had lots of cuddles and lovely walks with Erin. Thank you for looking after him again for us. We wouldn’t trust anyone else now with Marley’s care. 100% recommend. Thank you 🙏 🐶❤️❤️”
“Leah has been amazing from start to finish and I would thoroughly recommend her. She was great at communicating and very professional with her approach to all of the training that Billy is still needing because he is still so young. I was very happy leaving Billy in her capable hands and am already planning some more dates in the future.”
“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.”
“Yogi stayed with Melissa, Ben and their dog Merlin for 5 nights, this was Yogis second visit. Melissa kept me updated on Yogis stay, which kept my mind at ease, as he has never stayed anywhere since birth. We are looking forward to booking another stay very soon.”
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.
“When we dropped Ziggy off with Lesley we could see how relaxed he was with her made us feel we didn’t have to worry and Lesley sent lots of photos via the App each day on his walks we will definitely be rebooking again”
“Savina was wonderful with my husky, especially during the heat. They showed great knowledge including first aid for dogs and I was kept up to date with photos, I felt so at ease! I would highly recommend Savina and definitely would book again :) thank you x”
About: An experienced dog owner who has looked after many family & friends dogs too. I have experience with rescue dogs, anxious/nervous dogs, senior dogs and puppies. Available for home visits, walkies and day care in my own home. I have sadly just lost my beloved 16 year old Staffy and I'm looking to support local owners with dog care needs and fill my days with the tippy tap of paws again. I live extremely close to hillsborough park so days will be spent with cuddles, walks, free treats (as I also happen to work for Pooch & Mutt dog food remotely) or whatever your dog needs! I am happy to ensure your dog(s) are the only pets I sit at one time to make sure they are comfortable and get all the attention they deserve! I work from home 100% of the time (minus the odd business trip) and have flexi working opportunities. I can be available all day, any week day from 8am to 8pm and occasionally on weekends too. I am happy to do multiple home visits or walks a day so long as this is local. If your dog comes to our house for the day, I can fit in up to 3 walks to keep minds & bodies busy as well as plenty of play and rest time. I work for a dog food company so we're never short on treats here but I am of course happy to cater to your requests and requirements - you know what's best for your pet! Before any dog visits my home or I visit theirs, I'd appreciate a meet and greet so we can all get to know eachother and build trust. I have a secure fenced garden. There are steps leading up to our property but i am used to carrying those dogs who struggle with mobility up them & also have a hoist to help.
“My doggo had a great time boarding with Sára! Would happily recommend. She gave lots of updates with many pics, was punctual and took care of his meds awell. He was also sad to see her leave lol, so thats a good indication of their time together.”
“Joey loved her stay with Arman, we got regular updates and we could see she was having a great time. Communication was great. Would definitely recommend & use again! Thankyou for looking after her so well ☺️”
“Our 11 year old dog had the best time staying with Ludmilla and her family. She's soft and loving but very anxious, and it seems she was settled from start to finish! We got regular updates without even needing to ask. Absolutely would not hesitate to book again in the future if needed. Thank you so much.”

“Alex gave me confidence throughout the entire time I was away, he spent the full 30mins with my 2 cats, unlike other sitters, fed them as I requested and sent me videos & photos daily. I could see that the cats were relaxed around him. Found everything tidy upon my return. Many thanks!”
“Isabelle was fantastic, and I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again in the future. She kept us regularly updated on how Rogelio was doing, including whether he was eating, which gave us great peace of mind. She also shared plenty of photos and videos, and it was wonderful to see how he was getting on while we were away.”
“Michelle and Martin have been an absolute godsend. They came to visit before the actual holiday and got to know me and my cat. They have kept me updated for the whole two weeks with photos and the communication has been amazing. My cat absolutely loves them both and I’ll be using them for every holiday I go on, I wouldn’t trust anyone else. ”
“Joy was great for Eric. She understood he can be a little distant at first, but he quickly warmed up to her. He seemed very chilled out on each visit so was clearly happy to her in his space. Lots of pics on each update too.”
“Nichola was great with Alfie. She sent lots of photos and I could tell he took to her very quickly. (He let her rub his belly and he doesn’t let just anyone do that!) I highly recommend Nichola; she is definitely a cat person!”
“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!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter Eugenie was extremely responsible and took such wonderful care of my cat. I really appreciated how clean they kept the place every day. They are trustworthy, professional, and excellent at what they do. 10/10 recommend!"”
About: Hello, I have over two years of experience helping to look after cats. Before moving to the UK, I lived with people who owned cats and often helped with their day-to-day care. I have also looked after my sister’s cat and friends’ cats, and since moving to the UK for my studies, I’ve continued to help friends with cat sitting when needed. From this experience, I’m used to spending time with cats in a home setting and following the routines that owners prefer. I understand that cats can be quite different from one another, so I try not to rush them and instead let them settle in their own way.
“It was first time we'd used a cat sitter as the cat had started to get stressed when in the cattery, and she was much happier being looked after at home. Carley is really friendly, took time to come and meet us and the cat before the booking, kept us up to date and sent picture whilst we were away. Would recommend Carley to look after your cat”
“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!”
“This is the second time Kathryn has taken care of Jeff with great care and kindness. Another seamless experience, and it’s so good for us to be able to go away knowing he’s in very safe hands. ”
About: I've pet sat for friends and neighbours cats over couple of years, including both very young and crazy kittens, as well as older cats with special diets. No matter the personality of your cat, I will be more than happy to provide the care they need!
About: Hi, I absolutely love cats and understand that they all have very unique, independent personalities. Whether your cat is an energetic player or a shy hider who prefers their own space, I know how to approach them patiently without rushing them or crossing their boundaries. I have experience doing drop-in visits for friends' cats while they were away. I am very attentive to the details that matter to cat owners: thoroughly scooping the litter box, refreshing food, and making sure water bowls are completely clean and filled. If a cat wants to play, I’m happy to bring out the feather wand; if they prefer to just watch me from a distance, I respect their space while ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and well-fed.
“I can’t recommend Ellen enough to look after your pets! Ellen stayed a few days to keep my 16 year old cat company whilst I was away and Ellen send me regular photo updates and messages which was very reassuring. Ellen clearly loves animals very much and is very responsible of them in her care. Thanks soo much :D”
About: I started by walking my own dog when I was 10, now I'm not in a position to have my own I love to meet and play with dogs and cats belonging to my family and friends. I'm friendly, caring and considerate, and quickly bond with animals. I have even become the second favourite person in the world to my sister's dog who doesn't give trust easily. I get a full on singing and dancing welcome every toner i visit! I have also built trust with an ex stray cat of my girlfriend, who has given meet kicks and likes to come for some fuss now and then. I work part time, between 8-10:30am and 2:30-4:30pm (or thereabouts) on weekdays, so i have plenty of time during the day to walk and care for your furry family. I'm also available dinner evenings and weekends too. I always leave other people's homes as I find them and maybe even a little better if there is time. I will make sure that your pet has water and anything else it reasonably needs for their health and safety before I leave.
“Jordan was amazing 🤩 she gave good communication throughout and was very kind looking after my cat. I would highly recommend her. She also sent amazing pictures and videos of the sit.”

“Callum is great! He took Narla for us at very short notice and accommodated my working hours. Narla seemed very happy in his care and was free to explore his house and garden at her leisure! Would definitely recommend!”

About: I bring more than just love for animals, I bring a lifetime of experience. Having shared my life with both cats and dogs for over 40 years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage, from their first clumsy steps to their golden years. Friends and family always count on me as their go-to pet sitter when they travel or host guests, because they know their fur-babies will be treated like my own. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddles on the sofa, or gentle care for older pets, I offer reliable, thoughtful, and genuine companionship. When I’m not buried in books, I’m happiest spending time with furry friends. Since I only work part-time in academia, I have plenty of free hours to dedicate to walks, cuddles, and check-ins. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that means early-morning walkies, evening playtime, or cozy overnight care. In my home, pets get the full “grandma’s house” treatment; cozy, relaxed, and just a little bit spoiled. They’re welcome everywhere: on the sofa, on the bed, or curled up at my feet while I read. I have a little backyard where we can enjoy fresh air and shade, and just a short walk away are the parks, perfect for ball games, stick-chasing, or gentle strolls. Cats are just as welcome here, whether they prefer a quiet nap in a sunny spot, brushing sessions, or a bit of playful pouncing. When I care for pets in the owner’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent and their environment safe, as if you’d never left. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, feeding, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, I treat every pet as though they were my own, with love, respect, and lots of attention.
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 😊”
“George took excellent care of Dixie during her day with him. He sent many pictures to reassure us she was happy and settled. This was Dixie’s first day away from us so we were a little nervous but there was absolutely no need to be. We were held up leaving Tramlines due to the traffic and ended up being 45 mins late to pick Dixie up. George was very patient and kind, waiting up for us to pick her up. Thank you George, Lemmy and family for your wonderful care of our dog!”
About: I have done pet sitting on and off as a side project for many years, including while living in Los Angeles, as you can see from my profile. I had been travelling and pet sitting until recently settling in Sheffield. I work from home and love having animals around. I don't have any pets of my own because I travel intermittently, so I enjoy looking after other people's pets when I can. There are several large parks near the house which are excellent for long walks where needed. While I am mostly at home, I do go out from time to time, so primarily sit for animals who are OK for up to four hours by themselves. I will do my best to check we have similar expectations before the sit begins. I work from home, so it's pretty easy to factor in any pet care routines and pick up and drop offs. I do have a back garden so there's some outside space here, and many parks close by for walks. I'm adjusting to pet sitting expectations in the UK so am prepared there may be slight differences to the US. I would usually expect that people bring their own litter tray for cats and poo bags for dogs but if that is unusual let me know. I have a relaxed home, animals are welcome on furniture, but of course if that clashes with home realities and you would prefer they don't, just let me know.
“Karolina was absolutely lovely and so amazing with Matty who can be a little shy at first but after a few minutes he loved her! You can tell she knows alot about dogs and cares for them very much, Matty was definitely in safe hands and we will 100% book back in!! Thanks for everything xxxx”

About: I own a beautiful retired/rescued greyhound. I'm moving to part time work from home and would love to help look after you dog in my spare time. I've always loved dogs, while I never wanted my own children. Daisy my greyhound is my fur baby and I will treat all your dogs like the prince and princesses they are. I'm now working part time at home 3 days a week, so I'm available for boarding and day care any day of the week. I can make your dog at ease at home and take care of any medication needs, day or night. If visiting my home I have a fenced back yard with one lazy greyhound to keep your dog company.
“Rose and Charlie are extremely friendly and I felt entirely comfortable leaving Bonnie with them for the day. Plenty of updates and Bonnie seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend!”
“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.”
“Toby had a great time with Emma. She was super communicative and flexible and sent lots of updates throughout the day. We would highly recommend Emma and will definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up around pets, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and that’s exactly the kind of sitter I aim to be. I’m patient, reliable, and will always treat your pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether they love long walks, playing with their favourite toy, or just having someone nearby for company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, and any special instructions you leave. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. As someone who genuinely cares about animals, my priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, gets plenty of attention, and enjoys their time with me just as much as you enjoy your time away. I’m a business student and have recently finished my course. I’m now waiting to start university in September, which means I have plenty of free time and a very flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for your pet, whether that’s daytime visits, walks, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and settled while you’re away. As I currently live in student accommodation, I’m unable to offer pet boarding in my own home. However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet in your home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and stick to their usual routine. I also offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, from feeding and walks to playtime and any special requirements your pet may have. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in trustworthy hands.
“Emily was super responsive, great communication, really flexible and helpful and the boys have a lovely time. I could tell from the moment I met her but the dogs were in good hands thank you so much, Emily, and hopefully we’ll see you again!”

“Alex is trustworthy and dependable. He took on board all of our requests regarding the care of our dog. He’s very understanding of our reactive dog, which was big relief!”
About: Currently, my profile link offers pet owners a £15 off their first booking with Rover. First reserved, first get. I have taken care of cats since I was 15. Neighbours and friends love to drop their cats to when they’re away. I am genuine friends with cats. I am good at using reward mechanisms to play with dogs and interact with cats. I’m currently looking for jobs, so I have plenty of time to play and take care of cats and dogs. I am free all day from 8am to 8pm, either work day or weekend. I can feed them twice per and going for park walks. At my parent’s home, I feed them not only processed factory food but also with fresh fruits vega and cooked meat to keep them healthy and happy. They love my massages when I tidy up their hairs.
“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!”
“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 :)”
About: I love pets! I have been around them since I was born, as my parents got a dog before having children. I’m sensitive snd have a sense of kinship with pets, being the youngest child and all!!😁 I would be happy to help you with your pet caring needs. I can: - Go on a nice walk with your doggo, so you can have a relaxed and exercised pet (who will not destroy your favorite shoes!) when you get home. - Board them in my home during the day - Caring visits and spending time with them in your home during the day - Stay with them in your home while you’re away Each pet has different needs and preferences, so I’ll be very happy to discuss their needs, and yours. Please feel welcomed to send any inquiries on how I can help you with your pet caring needs! I’m a postgraduate student in a flexible, writing-up phase. I’m available from 8 am to 10 pm for dog walks, can fit around your schedule, and am available short-notice. I’m respectful and a good listener, so will be aware to and uphold any guidance and boundaries you communicate. I aim to leave things as I found them in any home that I am in. 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.
“Ellen has been great with our whippets weekly walks. Shes always on time, very warm and friendly with the dog and most importantly, our whippet is always delighted to see her. Would absolutely reccommend her services.”
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.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a baby, and until recently my husband and I have always had rescue dogs. Sadly last year I lost my beloved golden retriever, and I have a dog shaped hole in my heart. I am therefore looking to fill that, by caring for other pet owners pooches 🐶 I have a wealth of experience and love to give, I am patient, always kind and caring 🐕 This is my full time job - I admit I do have the best job in the world!! I structure my day around the pets I need to visit, ensuring that they each receive quality care I treat every pet owner's home with respect and whilst at the property look for any possible security risks (open windows etc). I also leave the house very clean and tidy, and ensure that mail is collected and put out of sight, bins are put out/in, lights on/off, plants watered, curtains etc
About: Hi, I’m a passionate animal lover living in Sheffield. I grew up around pets and deeply understand that dogs and cats aren't just animals—they are family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry companions behind, which is why my top priority is to provide reliable, high-quality care that keeps their usual routine intact. I have practical, hands-on experience looking after friends' and neighbors' pets. For example, I recently spent two days caring for a friend's dog who was a bit timid and nervous about being away from their owner. By spending quality time together, staying calm, and being patient, I successfully helped the dog settle down, feel comfortable, and enjoy their walks. Currently, I have a very flexible schedule, making me highly available throughout the week for dog walking and drop-in visits. Whether your pet needs a fun walk to burn off energy or just some friendly company, you can rest assured they are in safe, loving, and responsible hands. I currently have a highly flexible schedule, which allows me to seamlessly fit pet care into my weekly routine. I am available throughout the week for morning, midday, or afternoon dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. Because my hours are adaptable, I can easily accommodate your pet's usual routine—whether that means sticking to your dog's regular walk timings or ensuring your cat is fed and checked on at their exact usual meal times. Since I focus exclusively on drop-in visits and dog walking, my priority is maintaining safety and security in your pet's own familiar environment. During home visits, I am extremely mindful of household security, ensuring all doors and windows are safely locked so curious cats or dogs stay securely inside. When out walking dogs, they will always remain securely on-leash for their safety. For cat visits, I deeply respect their boundaries and let them set the pace for interaction while thoroughly managing their litter boxes, fresh water, and meals. I am a highly responsible person who will always send detailed photo updates of your happy cats or dogs after each visit for your total peace of mind! I also have a professional camera, so if you need portraits of your pet, I’d be happy to provide high-quality photos of your adorable furry friends.
About: I’m Tash. I have been around dogs since a young age and have genuine love for animals. I am active and understand the importance of routine and exercise. I have been around lots of spaniels and frenchies mainly. I can provide a hour walk on the morning before I go to work, I get a 1 hour break so will pop home (live 10 minutes from work) take your dog for a walk/ toilet and then evening walk! On the weekend, let’s so wild and get out all day 👌 We are outdoor people and often get out for walks and would welcome your dog to join us. I live in an apartment, it does have a garden that can be used.
About: Both me and my partner Kyle love animals of all shapes and sizes, and have had dogs and cats for most of our lives (but do not currently just as we do go away at weekends occasionally!). We both work from home flexibly full time so can give your dog as much attention as they need, and are also available for last minute bookings! Both me and my partner are remote workers on a flexible schedule, so are able to give your pet the time and attention they need. We can also be available for fairly last minute bookings due to this. We have a small fenced garden safe for time outside, and will check for any other tweaks we need to make to our home to ensure your pet is comfortable, or for anything I need to be aware of if visiting your pet in your home.
About: I've had animals in my family home since I can remember, from cats, rabbits, rodents, birds, and different types of dog breeds (westies, boxers and dachshunds). I love the company of animals and treat them with care, respect and love. I'm currently taking an academia break following the completion of my PhD, so I have a lot of free time between writing papers and going to the gym. I am located central in Sheffield. I have a hamster at home (named Ozzy), who does not require timely care so I am widely available to help out with your pets needs. I wouldn't be able to offer services within my own home, however if we were able to build a trusting mutual relationship I would consider overnight care within your own home after a discussion of pet care needs.
About: I’ve taken care of lots of different kinds of dogs as well as cats and other animals. I can provide them with all the love they need and I know how to keep them clean and fed. I’m currently only in uni 2 hours per day so I’ll have the rest of the time to hang out with your little buddy I have a nice yard area outside for them to pop out in during the day and I live near some good parks where they can go and enjoy walks
About: Grown up in the countryside so have been walking neighbours, family friends/ friends dogs since I was very young. Plenty of time on my hands at the moment so quite flexible. Photos above of just some of the friendly doggos I have had the pleasure of looking after! Please note: no specialist skills. That being said as of writing this (June 2026) I have come across a real mix of breeds and sizes in the past few months and so now have good experience with many of the "trickier" breeds and dogs. Had multiple huskies and bigger dogs like Bernese mt dog for example. Have some experience with trying to earn the trust of rescue dogs with hightened anxiety and trust issues, senior dogs with health and mobility issues but also with puppies who are still not trained up! I don't want to deal with an aggressive dog but apart from that I'll give it a go :) Currently recovering from chronic illness and cannot work at the moment, therefore loads of time on my hands to walk around! Very flexible and can do most times in the day, weekends might be busier. With the proximity to the peak district, I am more than happy to drive your dog for a walk along one of the gritstone edges if you wish. Curbar-Froggatt and back, a personal favourite. I look after pets in my own home by giving them a safe, comfortable space, walks, playtime, and loads of attention to make them feel happy and relaxed. All three of my housemates and neighbours also love all the dogs I've been bringing around, so your dog will be getting loads of attention and love ! . We are a clean household and the house is kept in a very tidy state. Its perfectly safe for a dog to roam around our house. I obviously stick to the feeding schedule and food you have instructed to use.

“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 :)”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Communication was excellent throughout, giving us complete peace of mind. Oz absolutely loved his stay with Ebony, Rueben, Shaz, and Mark, and was clearly in cuddle heaven! He was treated like one of the family, and we came home to a very happy boy. We wouldn't hesitate to book again—highly recommended! Thank you so much.”
“Liz was great with our miniature schnauzer Niles. He stayed with Liz overnight and settled in with her very quickly. Liz was kind enough to send regular snaps of Niles through the day and you could tell he was having a lovely time. We would definitely recommend Liz to other dog owners and will definitely be in touch again!”
“5 star care again for our beloved boy Marley. He’s had lots of cuddles and lovely walks with Erin. Thank you for looking after him again for us. We wouldn’t trust anyone else now with Marley’s care. 100% recommend. Thank you 🙏 🐶❤️❤️”
“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.”
“Yogi stayed with Melissa, Ben and their dog Merlin for 5 nights, this was Yogis second visit. Melissa kept me updated on Yogis stay, which kept my mind at ease, as he has never stayed anywhere since birth. We are looking forward to booking another stay very soon.”
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.
“When we dropped Ziggy off with Lesley we could see how relaxed he was with her made us feel we didn’t have to worry and Lesley sent lots of photos via the App each day on his walks we will definitely be rebooking again”
“Savina was wonderful with my husky, especially during the heat. They showed great knowledge including first aid for dogs and I was kept up to date with photos, I felt so at ease! I would highly recommend Savina and definitely would book again :) thank you x”
About: An experienced dog owner who has looked after many family & friends dogs too. I have experience with rescue dogs, anxious/nervous dogs, senior dogs and puppies. Available for home visits, walkies and day care in my own home. I have sadly just lost my beloved 16 year old Staffy and I'm looking to support local owners with dog care needs and fill my days with the tippy tap of paws again. I live extremely close to hillsborough park so days will be spent with cuddles, walks, free treats (as I also happen to work for Pooch & Mutt dog food remotely) or whatever your dog needs! I am happy to ensure your dog(s) are the only pets I sit at one time to make sure they are comfortable and get all the attention they deserve! I work from home 100% of the time (minus the odd business trip) and have flexi working opportunities. I can be available all day, any week day from 8am to 8pm and occasionally on weekends too. I am happy to do multiple home visits or walks a day so long as this is local. If your dog comes to our house for the day, I can fit in up to 3 walks to keep minds & bodies busy as well as plenty of play and rest time. I work for a dog food company so we're never short on treats here but I am of course happy to cater to your requests and requirements - you know what's best for your pet! Before any dog visits my home or I visit theirs, I'd appreciate a meet and greet so we can all get to know eachother and build trust. I have a secure fenced garden. There are steps leading up to our property but i am used to carrying those dogs who struggle with mobility up them & also have a hoist to help.

“Our 11 year old dog had the best time staying with Ludmilla and her family. She's soft and loving but very anxious, and it seems she was settled from start to finish! We got regular updates without even needing to ask. Absolutely would not hesitate to book again in the future if needed. Thank you so much.”
“Albert absolutely loved his time with Scarlett and Murphy. They went on plenty of walks and played together really well. Scarlett sent loads of photos and videos. I would definitely recommend and use again”
“Tracey has gone above and beyond with Tulia she's absolutely brilliant she's sent regular updates she's took her on lovely walks in the woods she's treated Tulia with so much love and care I will definitely recommend Tracey to be your choice I can assure you will be more than happy knowing your dogs in a loving home and safe and kind environment”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken on the shared responsibility of being a dog owner since I was a child. I adore their company and have had two chihuahuas of my own. I have experience with elderly dogs who require multiple medications a day. I have a home studio where I do clients nails. I do 2-4 clients a day so I have plenty time to gap fill with dog walks/cuddles. I’m flexible as my schedule differs day to day. I have a small, secure garden with a grass patch round the front. I have a little old man chihuahua who gets on with most dogs but if he doesn’t, my partner works from home full time so can keep him home while I walk your dog :)
“Lucy was brilliant with our Labradoodle Maisie for a short 3 night stay. Maisie recently lost her big sister so hasn’t been used to being an “only dog” so Lucy’s beautiful husky Indy, was great company for her. Lucy sent regular updates and pics/ videos showing how much fun Maisie was having on her walks and also how settled she was in their home environment. I would highly recommend Lucy and will definitely be asking her to look after Maisie again soon!”
About: We’re Claire and Liam. We’ve both grown up with dogs and currently have 2 rescue dogs ourselves. We love taking our dogs everywhere we go, our lives very much revolve around them! We do activities like canicross, scentwork and mantrailing with them. We’d love to help you look after your dog while you’re away and will bring them along to all our adventures. We both work from home with flexible working arrangements. Our dogs have at least an hour walk with toilet breaks throughout during the weekdays and much longer during the weekends. Our garden will be fully fenced this summer and our 2 dogs can keep yours company. We also have a separate space for your dog if they prefer this at any point.
