About: We have been offering pet boarding for over a year, and I’ve had dogs my entire life. I truly believe they are one of the best companions a person can have. I have completed pet first aid training and focus training, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My husband and children are all involved with the pet boarding and this ensures the pets have plenty of cuddles and attention. I look after your dogs as if they are my own and I follow the routines they are used to. Our dogs enjoy at least two good walks a day off the lead in a safe area and lots of fun and attention. We have a large enclosed garden for them to enjoy as well. My dogs are friendly and used to meeting new dogs and people. We as a family love dogs and all respect and treat them with kindness.
About: About Me 🐾 I have been surrounded by pets from a young age and have always been a huge animal lover. I now have my own Westie, who is incredibly friendly, sociable and mixes with lots of other dogs on a daily basis. He absolutely loves having doggie friends come to visit and is equally happy to have them stay for a sleepover! I understand how important it is to know your dog is somewhere safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for while you are away. I will treat every dog as if they were my own, with plenty of attention, affection, walks and, of course, cuddles. I am also Pet First Aid trained, giving you that extra reassurance that your four-legged family member is in safe and caring hands. 🐶❤️ I work from home two days a week, which means I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of company, attention and cuddles throughout the day. I’m also off at weekends, so there is lots of time for lovely walks and adventures. I’m very fortunate to live in an area with plenty of great places for dog walking, and with my own friendly Westie already part of the household, your dog will have a little companion to enjoy them with too. 🐾❤️ For this section, I’d make it reassuring and personal, while mentioning your Westie and your Pet First Aid training: My home is a safe, relaxed and dog-friendly environment where visiting dogs will be treated as part of the family. I have my own very friendly and sociable Westie who loves having doggie friends to visit and stay over. I will always follow an owner’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medication and sleeping arrangements, so their dog feels comfortable and settled. Dogs will receive plenty of attention, lovely walks and cuddles, and as I am Pet First Aid trained, their safety and wellbeing will always be my priority. 🐾❤️
“This was Ruby's first time away from us at Doggy Day Care. Margaret, Zoe, Skye & family are very friendly caring animal lovers who we trust implicitly with our precious girl. She had a fabulous day full of fun, love, walks and happiness with Skye. We were regularly updated with joyful photos that were much appreciated and reassuring. A truly great experience for Ruby and us. We highly recommend Margaret,Zoe and Skye for you dogs daycare and will be booking them again. Thank you so much.”

“Virgil had a great time with Sarah, Glen and family. They were really great at following our guidance for Virgil given that he's young and still needs things like planned naps. The photos they sent through were so lovely, we knew what he was up and that he was happy. He seemed really happy and chilled there!”

“Lots of status updates, photos and videos of my dog playing with lily in gardens. They got on great! Ewa has lots of toys also for my dog to play with and wee mini games like treat trays, sniffs etc. 10/10 would recommend! :)”

“Jemma was a delight and looked after Ru very well. Was happy for a meet and greet in advance of the big day. And on the day went for lots of lovely walks with Ru, despite the mixed weather! They even went for a wee puppaccino in a local cafe. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jemma for the most excellent care 🐶☕”


About: For almost 11 years my wife and I had our energetic Frenchie, Wilsie; she filled my heart to the brim with love! In Oct 2022 my wife, Kayleigh, and I welcomed our son, and he and Wilsie were besties. Unfortunately we lost Wilsie in June 2025 after a short illness, and despite having a toddler running around the house now feels remarkably quiet without the pitter-patter of tiny paws. Between working from home on differing days of the week and having our little one in nursery, I have plenty of time for doggy cuddles and attention. While my journey on Rover used to be about dog sitting to give Wilsie some four-legged company, it is now to help fill a void in my heart! My wife and I offer flexibility with our work schedules to get out the house for breaks and walks as often as the dogs want. We have an open plan downstairs, double doors leading into a good sized fenced garden and we are happy to sofa share for the furry cuddles!
“Michael did an excellent job looking after my dog Mac. He took really good care of him and provided detailed feedback afterwards and photos of their day. Brilliant job, Michael Thank you”

“This was Ashleys first time with Evelyn and I would definitely recommend her. I got updates how Ashley was getting on throughout the day. I picked up a happy puppy.”

About: We had our own lovely Cassie (a beautiful labradoodle) for 12 years. She was much loved and is much missed. Also lots of family pets in younger years. We decided not to replace her as our children live abroad and we want to travel unhindered. Hence me offering to look after other people’s beloved pets - the best of both worlds - a dog in the house when we are available and freedom the rest of the time! Lots of experience looking after other people’s dogs and always treat them with love and respect! Happily retired and my happy place is out in the local county side walking a dog! I can usually accommodate most pet schedules and happy to discuss requirements. Happy to board your dog who will have the run of our large downstairs. Each pet visiting has found the place they like best to sit, some admiring the view of Bennachie out our front window while others love the garden. Prefer a cage for sleeping but, if pet well behaved, can be flexible.
About: I've grown up in a family that has always loved dogs, so caring for them has been a natural part of my life from a young age. I truly enjoy being around dogs and understand the love, attention, and patience they need to thrive. As a dog owner myself, I have hands-on experience with daily care, exercise, enrichment, and understanding that every dog has their own unique personality and needs. I'm currently completing additional training to further develop my knowledge and skills, allowing me to provide the highest standard of care. My goal is to ensure that both you and your dog feel comfortable, supported, and confident while in my care. I will always take the time to understand your dog's routine, preferences, and needs so that both you and your furry friend have the best possible experience. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to the dogs in my care. From September 2026, I will be attending campus three days a week during term time, with my timetable to be confirmed. I will always ensure your dog receives the attention, exercise, companionship, and routine they need to feel happy and settled. Your dog's safety and wellbeing are my top priorities. I live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighbourhood and provide a calm, child-free and cat-free environment. My home is kept clean and secure to minimise hazards, and I have a large crate available if required. I take the time to understand each dog's individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for throughout their stay.

About: Hi, my name’s Rosie! I’m a 33 year old airline pilot recently moved to Aberdeen who loves horses, dogs and cats.

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs all my life. From Staffies to springer spaniels, I’m comfortable around all breeds of all ages. I understand that your dog will have its own personality and unique needs which I can cater to. As well as dogs, I’m an all around animal lover! I have two guineapigs of my own and have been brought up surrounded by dogs and pets in general. From Friday to Sunday I am available 24/7 to any pet I look after. Meaning they will be provided with the best care possible. I’m very active and live close by to a park, forest, and beach which is ideal for walking. I also have a car to travel for any pets if necessary. At home I have a secluded garden with no means of escape. Any pet would also be under watch 24/7 to ensure that their needs are met. In an owners home I would comply with the owners needs and wants, ensuring the pet was comfortable before leaving the visit.

My husband works away and I currently stay at home full time with our two children, 6 and 3 years old and our two labradors so I am here all day, typically walk our own dogs 2 times per day, but happy to accommodate any walking schedule you may already have in place for your own fur babies. We have a large fully fenced garden that the dogs will have full access to, room to accommodate crates if this is something your pet requires - our two boys have the run of the place as will yours, pets allowed on furniture too so plenty of cuddles to be had . Baths can be given to your pet before collection if this is something you would like(at no extra cost). We live close to both fields and wooded areas so will always get the dogs a good run on their walks also.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Aberdeenshire on Rover is £23 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 120 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Aberdeenshire. About 86% of Aberdeenshire sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later collection to match your Aberdeenshire commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust collection and drop-off times when needed.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's lead and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalised care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog's vaccines is the best way to be 'boarding ready'. Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Sitters in Scotland may request that your dog be up-to-date on core vaccines, such as Canine Distemper, Canine Parvovirus, Canine Adenovirus (also known as DHP or DHPPi), Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough. Cats may be required to have Feline Panleucopenia Virus, Feline Herpesvirus, Feline Calicivirus, and Feline Leukaemia Virus up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 poo breaks occured. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available for dedicated customer support by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalised, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover must pass an identity verification before they can list their services. An identity verification confirms that the sitter is who they say they are based on their documents.
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 our Trust & Safety page .
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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 dog, 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.
We require sitters to operate in compliance with applicable local licensing requirements. In England, pet sitters who board dogs or provide doggy day care as a business may need a valid licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) Regulations 2018. When vetting your sitter, ask if they meet local licensing requirements for dog boarding. This confirmation is important for coverage under the Rover Guarantee. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
