“This was the second time we booked Mozzie’s holiday with Susan. Our anxious fur baby fit right in. I think he remembered Susan and the many walks he had with her. Susan is very calm and gentle and that is just the right attitude for Mozzie. I will book with Susan again.”
“It was our first time using the Rover app, and we couldn't have lucked out more in finding Leslie and Richard to watch our dog while we were out of town for the weekend. They were so welcoming, kind and attentive, and sent lots of photos and updates. They truly catered to our dog the whole weekend and spoiled him with extra walks and treats. You can tell they really, really love dogs and treat your fur baby like their own. I would highly recommend Leslie if you are looking for a sitter in the future, and Troika is excited for his next visit! Thank you so much for everything-you truly made our trip worry free because we knew our little buddy was in such good hands.”
“I can’t say enough good things about the care Leslie gave to Auggie. We really appreciated how well she kept us updated throughout his stay, and Auggie was happy and content when we came to get him.”
About: I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve had 2 golden retrievers and 3 tabby cats. I’ve looked after my coworker's orange cat and my coworker's corgi. My apartment is just a simple 2-bedroom apartment. I live in an apartment building with other people and other dogs. I work full time, I spend all my time in the city near my apartment. If I have a dog I like to bring them in to the office with me. I have no backyard and I don’t let cats outside my apartment, only dogs. I feed my pets twice a day and I have water bowls out for them.
“ZIH-YU looked after our 11 year old Belgian Malinois while we were away for a family trip. She was great with communicating and sending photos. She took excellent of our pup and treated him like family. Thank you so much!”
“Tauane & her partner are great! They took really good care of our two Frenchies. They sent lots of updates throughout and they all seemed to have a great stay together. I can't thank them enough for the care they gave to our dogs. I will definitely use them again 😁!”
“Emily did an amazing job looking after Harley. We couldn't be happier with the care she provided. She sent us lots of photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel that our girl was being very well looked after. Thank you so much, Emily, for taking such wonderful care of Harley. We truly appreciate it and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. 🐾”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with over 4 years of experience looking after kittens, cats, puppies, and dogs of all sizes. I truly love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I have experience with a wide range of personalities- from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime to more relaxed or shy pets who just want a calm, gentle presence. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and needs so they can stick to what feels familiar. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m also respectful of your home and committed to keeping everything clean, safe, and well cared for. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout my time with them. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I typically work 24hrs a week with weekends almost completely off. This makes taking care of pets very manageable. During the day, I have many breaks in between sessions that will allow me time to make frequent visits to your pets. I also work all across the city, making me available to house sit almost anywhere. During my stay, I take care of feeding, walks (if needed), playtime, litter or yard clean-up, and, of course, plenty of attention and companionship. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more relaxed and independent, I adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable.
“Amazing experience! She was so attentive to my pup the whole time, you could tell she took great care of her. My little girl had so much fun and was happy the entire stay. She also kept me updated constantly with photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend, I’ll definitely book with her again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her! 🐾”
“Nicole took care of my dog Frankie and I couldn't have been happier with all of the updates and the care he received. Frankie is a rescue and is generally very timid so in the 4 years I've had him I've only entrusted him to really close family. Nicole took the time to understand his needs and I was so happy to hear that he had a great time and he seemed so comfortable and at ease that I'll definitely have Nicole take care of him again. I couldn't recommend her more to anyone, she was super responsive to my texts as well as sending me updates to let me know he was eating OK and that he was adjusting well which was such a relief to me.”
About: Hey - I'm Virginia, and I would be honored to help take care of your pet! I provide most services including walks, drop in visits, house pet sitting, boarding, and day care, and I am also happy to discuss unique options. I have a flexible, work from home schedule. I have the most experience with dogs, including veterinary clinics, formal dog training skills, and dog walking. I love cats as well, but provide only drop in visits or house sitting at this time for cats. I am comfortable with almost all kinds of dogs and can handle reactive and energetic personalities, or particular health/social needs. I will keep you well updated during the visit. Please feel free to ask any questions! I am available most days except sundays and saturday afternoons and have a flexible schedule! So, I'll be able to keep a close eye on and give attentive care for your pet. I care for pets by looking out on their behalf. I will ask you for information regarding their needs, fears, and favorite activities. During walks, I keep them away from other people and animals who we don't know. I ensure they are hydrated and not stressed. I also maintain a calm demeanor, and I am very proactive in making decisions for their comfort and safety.
“We are beyond grateful for Liz. We were able to finally sneak our Maggie in to meet Liz and Nala. I had been stressing about what to do with our special Maggie for our week getaway, and Liz was incredibly accommodating and understanding. I felt so reassured that Maggie was in extremely capable loving care. Liz communicated about how Maggie was doing, sending adorable photos and videos, and happy updates and I knew everything was great on their end. Even with Maggie's sore hips, administering medication was never an issue for Liz, and I got helpful feedback about how she was managing day to day. I would trust Liz with any of our pets in the blink of an eye. Thank you Liz!!!”
About: I understand that your animal is your furBABY, as is mine. I understand it is not always easy to leave your animal with a stranger. I have recently decided to turn my love of animal care and training into a full-time career. With that said, my schedule is flexible, my books are open and I am ready to serve! Walk vs. Drop-In Visit (30 - 60 minutes) A walk is pretty self-explanatory, right? Your dog gets a 30-minute or 60-minute walk around your neighborhood. It’s all some dogs require while their humans are at work for the day. A drop-in visit is more like a welfare check for your pet. I will stop by your home for 30 minutes to feed, play or administer medication with your pet. Any cat service would be considered a drop-in as well House Sitting in your home, per night, up to 24 hours, includes: I stay overnight at your location to ensure your pets are happy and safe. All basic needs are met including potty breaks and dog walking, litter box scooping, water refreshing, etc. But of course, some pet play and love, depending on your pet's personality. I will ensure that your home remains neat, tidy, and secure by bringing in the mail, adjusting window treatments, taking in and out trash cans, and watering plants.
“My cat Littles stayed with Jiale for 12 nights. Jiale made sure Littles had a safe space from her own kitty, gave lots of pets, and sent me updates with pictures and videos. Usually, after a typical boarding place, Littles comes home agitated and starving for affection, but after staying with Jiale she came back home calm and content - I think she liked the stay.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in London is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - London
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. She kept me updated throughout his stay with pictures and always reached out with any questions or concerns. I really appreciated the communication and knowing he was in good hands. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him and his wellbeing. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a patient, caring, and reliable dog sitter!
Shelby did an excellent job boarding my dog, London, from Saturday to Sunday. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly comfortable handling dogs, which made the whole experience stress-free for me and London. Shelby sent timely updates and was easy to reach by text, so I always knew how London was doing, and he seemed relaxed and happy both during drop-off and pick-up—a good sign he was well looked after. Drop-off and pick-up times were respected, everything went smoothly with no issues, and I’d absolutely book Shelby again for weekend boarding and recommend her to other dog owners in London looking for trustworthy care.
Susan took amazing care of my dog, Alphie, for three days. She was very responsive and sent regular photo updates, which gave me great peace of mind. Alfie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated her kindness and professionalism, and I’d absolutely love to send Alfie to Susan again. Highly recommend. Thank you, Susan!“🐾
Vrutika was very responsive before and during Lily's visit! She was so patient, caring, and treated Lily as if she was her own. We were very satisfied with Vrutika's flexibility and once I was running later than expected to pick up Lily, she offered to drive us home and kindly adjusted the booking to reflect this. We will definitely use her services again!
Leslie and her family welcomed our 2 boys into their home and immediately we knew they were in good hands and well looked after for the 2+ weeks we were away. She kept us updated with photos and though we missed them were able to relax and not worry. We would love Leslie and family to look after them again in future!!
Takes good care of pet. However, it is good note that she seems to take care of other dogs at the same time as far as I could ascertain … also, she has a very friendly golden retriever, which is good. My main tip to her is that she should take more videos and photos throughout the day of the babysat dog and interactions with her other dogs. Regardless of all the points mentioned above, the service isgenerally high quality. We would book her again.
Alfred had a great time at Bradley’s!! He is a lovely safe spot for my son! Alfred is reactive and a lot for some to deal with but Bradley does a great job dealing with Alfred’s energy and needs while communicating with us the whole time! Due to Alfred’s large size (140lbs) and the fact that he’s not neutered it can be challenging to find someone that can handle him and Bradley does an excellent job! Thank you so much for watching our baby!!
Catherine is an amazing person who really loves what she do. I will definitely ask for her service whenever I need a long term boarding period for Vicky. I also confidently recommend her for anyone who needs the same service. Thank you Catherine for all the care and love that you provide to Vicky and we really appreciate keeping us posted with daily photos and videos.
My dog had a great experience with Tania! Her and her partner were very communicative and sent tons of pictures of our dog Chief while we were away. Love the daily updates. And even loved that before we booked for Tania that her and her partner took him for a couples hour to make sure everyone felt comfortable! Will definitely be using Tania’s services in the future!! Thank you so much 😊

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
