About: I have loved dogs my whole life. I begged my mom for years to get one as a child, and ever since age 10 I have had a beagle almost non-stop. Currently, I have a 2-year old beagle named Floyd whom you can see on Instagram as The_Biking_Beagle. If you live or work in downtown London, it's possible you've seen us biking to the dog park, which we do almost every day. I raised him since 2 months old, so I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. My last dog Odie was a rescue from Kentucky, and he was likely about 8-10 years old when I got him. So I love dogs of all ages-and breeds. If you think your dog would like to join us on a bike ride to the dog park, that could be arranged. Either way, I will be happy to spend time with and walk your furry friend! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to choose my hours. Let me know when you need, and I will make time for you. I have a very friendly 2 year old beagle who gets along with almost any dog and loves to play. I also have a beautiful and very talkative cat, who has her own space if necessary, but also loves to socialize if the dog is friendly to cats. But if not, she does have her own highway of ledges and cat trees and closet space so there is no worry about her safety. I am also happy to care for your cat or dog in your home. I love to play with and spend time with animals, so you can be sure your fur baby is in good hands!

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Through years of dog sitting and babysitting, I've developed a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, daily routines, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I enjoy keeping dogs active, entertaining them, and making sure they receive the individual care they need. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I will treat them like part of my own family! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I can accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and regular bathroom breaks throughout the day. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and will make sure your dog receives lots of attention, exercise, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a loving, clean, and safe environment where dogs can feel relaxed and at home. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I also make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, and receive plenty of attention. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I always respect their boundaries and personalities. I want every owner to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in caring and responsible hands!

About: Growing up my family and I used to rescue dogs, making me very patient with all types of furbabies! I can take on any challenge. My baby was a special needs dog who needed attentive care 24/7 which helped me learned a lot about animal care. I have experience with my senior pets as well as both my husband and I care for our family pets when our parents needs us to! Both my husband and I have a wide experience in bird, rodent, reptile care as well. Any animal is welcome in our home, guaranteed a safe environment that would accommodate your pet needs. To get to know about me and my love for animals check my highlights on Instagram at allykatigbak or potato.the.bully. Since we have cared for our own pets as well as foster dogs in the past we have lots of toys, beds, treats, apparel for cold weather ranging from small to XXL and a crate if needed. We’re happy to share these with your babies during their stay with us to ensure safety, enrichment and comfort. I work from home and only go into the office twice a week, so your pet will have plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. My own dog recently passed, and caring for him, especially as a special needs pet. This taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of attentive care. I’ll make sure your furry friend receives the same love, comfort, and dedication I gave to mine. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. My home is a calm, pet-friendly space filled with toys, treats, and cozy beds to help them feel right at home. Pets are always welcome on the furniture, because I want them to feel like part of the family. Whether they love to play, nap, or snuggle, their environment is always clean, secure, and full of care. A crate is also available if they prefer their own space.

About: I have lived on a farm all my life. I have been taking care of animals for most of my life. I ensure good care of animals. I would take them for a walk, reward good behaviours with treats. I have a lot of property that I could take a dog to go on a walk. I have a Golden Retriever and her name is Juno, she is 3yr old and she is very friendly to all dogs . Mostly I am at home that gives me availability to take care of dogs on even short notice. I have lots of space on the farm for the dogs which is great for energetic dogs. I always have them on a leash for trust to be built, and so they are next to me at all times. I have my own space in my parents house so a more reserved dog can build trust at their own level.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. I grew up with Ruby, a French Bulldog/Pug mix, and helped care for her for 13 years, including during her senior years when she needed extra patience, attention, and care. I also have a small dachshund of my own, so I understand how much pets mean to their families and how important it is to have someone you can trust. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work fully remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for midday walks, check-ins, and visits, and I’m home for most of the day, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I also have availability during evenings, nights, and weekends, making it easy to work around your pet’s routine and schedule. I live in an attached home with a fully fenced-in backyard, providing a safe space for dogs to get some fresh air and play. I’m also located near several parks and walking paths, which are great for walks, exercise, and outdoor adventures. Since I work from home, I can provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and individual needs, and I’m happy to follow their usual routines and any specific instructions from their owners to help them feel right at home.

With years of experience and a genuine affection for animals, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry companions.

Every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand their individual personalities, preferences, and routines. I know how important it is for you to stay connected with your furry friends while you're away. During their time with me, I'll send you regular updates, including photos and messages, so you can see how much fun they're having and have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.

We offer a safe, calm, and loving environment with regular walks, playtime, and personalized care tailored to your pet’s routine and needs.

About: I’ve been relied on to watch and train since I was a child. I handle large and small breeds I love them all. I’ve watched up to four dogs at once including a brand new puppy and I’ve volunteered at a breeders house for a few months! I am currently going to school but I have most days off and am able to watch your pups after classes too! My house is clean so there is no worrying about if your dog can get into anything they shouldn’t but they will be occupied either way I have a fenced yard, your dog will be free to roam the house and backyard! Depending on the service needed I’m happy to go on high energy walks or spend some time getting exercise in the backyard at home, even if your pup likes to just chill with some company I’m happy to do that too

Absolutely wonderful experience! She looked after my 8-month-old Pug/Bulldog mix for four days and did an amazing job. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly very well cared for. Being a young pup in a new environment, he decided to mark his territory when he first arrived 🙈, and she handled it with patience and understanding.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - London

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in London is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

sitters in London have an average of 14 years of experience. Each sitter has their own unique experience and skill sets for different types of pets. You can find details of each sitter’s potential certifications and abilities, such as pet first-aid or senior pet experience, listed on their profile. Look at other pet parent reviews and repeat pet parent booking rates for an idea of their pet care exp erience.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
