“So pleased we've found Alison, we're new to the area so it's great to know that Boo was looked after so well. It meant we could relax and enjoy our holiday, knowing Boo was enjoying her little holiday. Alison was so attentive to Boo's needs (being 15yrs old and a bit slow, blind and deaf), Alison kept us updated with photos, videos and messages. Beautiful surroundings in Clumber Park, very relaxed and Boo even made 2 new doggy friends with Alisons lovely Peanut and Nacho. Will definitely be using her for future dog sitting.”

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life from staffies to Yorkshire terriers and my current dogs are two boarder collies so if you have your dogs stay with us they won’t be short of walks 😊 I do currently work part time and finish work most days at 4pm and usually can swap my days off in the week so I can fit around you. I have a very long fenced garden with a grass area and a very cool house perfect for summer dogs are allowed on my sofa so they can get nice and comfy we have pleantly of toys to play with aswell if you have your dogs stop over with me I can separate them from mine overnight with mine upstairs or vice versa
“Suzanne and her husband were amazing with Belle over the weekend she stayed with them. Belle can be quite cautious around new people and dogs and it was the first time I'd left her with someone she didn't know well but at our first meeting Suzanne medee feel Cofindant the Belle would be looked after, there were Plenty of photos and updates and On picking up Belle she behaved like she'd had a better weekend break then my partner and I did 😅. Will definitely use Suzanne again and after this experience I would be very reluctant to use any one else”
“Absolutely fantastic. As layla is still a puppy we asked if her crate routine could be followed and Beth said that was no trouble at all. We had photos and videos and I know layla has lots of kisses and cuddles like she does at home. Really couldn't of asked for anything more! 100% recommended and layla will be back :)”
“Charlotte and her family, were amazing looking after Hugo while we were on holiday. It was his first time being left and he’s a Velcro dog. He soon settled in, loved his walks with his new dog pals, cuddles and play time. Daily updates and photos were fab. Thank you so much for taking exceptional care of Hugo xx”
“Nicole and her family were the perfect dog sitters for our dog Otto whilst we went away. They were so friendly and Nicole was brilliant at keeping us informed with pictures and updates of Otto to put our mind at rest. When we went to collect Otto it was clear he was really well looked after and comfortable...he came back a very happy and tired dog! Would definitely recommend and will be using again.”

Verna could not have been more helpful and accommodating looking after my rather senior black lab Sapper. She sent photos and bulletins from time to time, and it was clear that Sapper was really having a lovely time. She came back happy and relaxed and obviously attached to Verna and I will have no hesitation in making the same arrangements again :)
My 2 dogs had a lovely time with Jess, her partner and their dogs over a weekend. Jess kept us fully informed with messages and videos over the course of the stay. They seemed to get on really well and play together with her dogs. She was really accommodating. I couldn’t really have asked for a better experience. I’d definitely recommend Jess and will definitely be in touch if we need her again.
This is the second time Jess and her partner have looked after Charlie and once again, we couldn't be happier. Charlie clearly enjoys his time here and gets on well with their own dogs. We received plenty of communication, photos and videos throughout. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bassetlaw on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Finding the right boarding environment is all about peace of mind. Boarding with a sitter on Rover helps you find a cosy experience in a real home for your dog.
When searching for a host, look for a sitter who:
- Offers a secure, home-like environment that is clean and welcoming
- Adheres to your dog’s established routine for meals, activity, and rest
- Possesses relevant experience with your pet’s specific breed, size, and personality
- Maintains clear communication regarding the frequency of photo and message updates
Don’t skip the Meet & Greet! The free Meet & Greet is the best way to see where your dog will sleep and who they might play with.
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.
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 East Midlands 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.
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.
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 .
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 dog to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation 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.
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 .
