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.

Even after only one visit, my dogs clearly warmed to Michael and his girlfriend. Unfortunately my dogs cannot talk but you can tell when someone is comfortable around a dog sitter. Will use again.

About: I’ve always had animals in my life, from growing up with a German Shepherd, cats and rabbits, to now sharing my home with two cheeky miniature dachshunds (one boy, one girl). With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs big and small, I know how much they’re part of the family.My two children also adore animals, so your pup will get plenty of love, playtime and attention. Whether it’s doggy day care, overnight stays, puppy play or senior snuggles, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy and at home I work from home five days a week, which means I can give your pup lots of attention, cuddles and company throughout the day. Doggy day care is easy to fit into my routine, and I’m also available for overnight stays and weekend boarding. We have a secure fenced garden and two very friendly miniature dachshunds who love making new friends. Your dog will always be supervised, and I’m happy to follow any routines you already have in place, from crate training to special feeding needs. Above all, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved and right at home.

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!

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 taken care of dogs since we got our first family pet when I was 5.

I currently work in office 7am -3pm Tuesday - Thursday but I can be available any hours outside of this, including every evening and all weekends I have a fenced garden in my house and a small dog of our own who is super friendly and patient with everyone she meets so can keep your pet company.

About: My family had a number of small pets (rabbits, guinea pigs and budgies) that I helped look after as I was growing up. As a teenager I also contributed to the care of our male boxer. For many years thereafter it wasn't possible to have any animals - I had moved abroad for university, spent time away on placement, started full-time work thereafter with life in rented accommodation which didn't allow pets. This change in 2020 when I lodged with a new landlady and her 2 adorable cocker spaniels. We became friends and when I visit I continue to take care of them when their owner is away; daytime and overnight. That includes walks on the beach or on a forest trail, where their favourite activity is to chase a tennis ball, followed by a swim. Once home, the boys make it clear that they would like food and ongoing attention in the form of belly rubs I'm very happy to oblige with. Following their owners suggestion I registered on borrowmydoggy in 2021 and met through this service a number of lovely dogs, mostly larger breeds (German Shepherd, Huskies, Malamute) but I've also started looking after a very confident and fast Chihuahua/Jack Russell lady who enjoys meeting new dogs on her park walks. My availability varies weekly. I prefer late morning and early afternoon sessions which give me a nice break from working at home on days that I can. I live in a top floor rented flat and have access to a small enclosed communal garden to the rear of the property. There is no lift so your pet needs to be able to climb stairs. Cats visit the garden frequently. I can take your pet to the beach or forest in my car.

About: I am a very active person, I enjoy walking and jogging through the forest near my house, and I would love a companion to join me. I don't have much professional experience taking care of pets, but I grew up looking after 2 large dogs. I enjoyed taking them on adventures to the beach, or the local lake and of course playing fetch. I don't have my own pet at the moment therefore all my time and attention will be spent taking care of your furry friend. My house has a garden to play in and there is a fantastic path through the woods to go for long walks, I also live near the beach and I am really looking forward to meeting some new furry friends!

Vilte provided an excellent service and was very accommodating to our needs, including late notice and unsure of daily timings. A meeting prior to leaving Blue was positive, and we were kept up to date during Blue’s stays. Highly recommended.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have had over 5 dogs growing up, so being around them has always been a big part of my life. I now have my own pup, Bella, so I’m used to daily routines, walks, playtime, and making sure dogs feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I treat every dog like they’re my own and create a calm, loving environment for them. I am unemployed and study online, so I’m able to give dogs my full time, attention, and care. I cater to every dog’s needs, big or small! I have a secure fenced garden for safe outdoor time. I also have my own small pup, Bella, who is an angel with other dogs. All interactions are supervised, and I can keep dogs completely separate if preferred.

So very happy to have found Shaimaa to take care of Baloo during our trip to Aberdeen! She accepted an incredibly short notice request when another arrangement fell through, and was such a fabulous sitter for him. Shaimaa sent reassuring video clips, photos and messages, so we knew that Baloo was in great hands and having a super time. Baloo responded incredibly positively to her calm, caring and positive approach. He had lots of fun, great walks and plenty cuddles. We highly recommend Shaimaa if you're based in, or travelling to, Aberdeen. What an excellent experience she provided, which meant that we could relax and make the most of the events that brought us to Aberdeen, without worrying about the wellbeing of our lovely dog. Thank you so much!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Aberdeenshire

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 111 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Aberdeenshire. About 75% 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 .
