About: I've had my own toy poodle, Nala, since she was a puppy 🐩 — she's nine months now, toilet trained, well behaved and spayed. She's grown up around visiting dogs and loves sharing her toys. Over the past year I've also looked after another small dog in my home for weeks at a time, from puppy right through to adult. I've nursed a dog through recovery after surgery, so I'm confident giving medication and keeping a dog calm and rested. I know how to change a dog's food over slowly so their tummy stays settled, and I brush Nala daily, so I'm very used to looking after a fussy coat. I only take small dogs, so I can give each one proper attention. I work from home most days and only go into the office around once a month, so your dog is rarely left alone and has company, play and cuddles throughout the day 🐾 I'll follow whatever routine you already have — meal times, nap times and walk times all stay exactly as your dog is used to. If your dog has a walking routine, I'll keep to it. Your dog stays inside my home with me, never in a kennel or outbuilding. I have a secure garden with artificial grass, plenty of indoor space to run about and lots of toys. I disinfect the garden regularly with pet-safe products, and paws get cleaned every time they come in from outside. The XL playpen stays open so any dog who wants a quiet moment has their own space. I'm very used to coat care from Nala, so I'm happy to brush your dog daily if their coat needs it. I'll stick to your feeding times and the food your dog already eats.
“Daisy had an absolutely amazing time staying with Dongmei and Thomas. From Dongmei's regular and lovely updates inc photos, we could tell how much attention and love was being given to Daisy. It was also clear how much Dongmei cares about making sure Daisy's needs are met and went above and beyond to understand any routine and to keep her entertained. She was also very patient and understanding when Daisy was a bit unsettled at bedtime with her first night away there. Overall, very happy and know Daisy will love her next stay with them again. Thanks so so much Dongmei and Thomas! 😊”
“Anke did absolutely fantastic with our elderly boy. She was very attentive and once she understood what his needs were we didn't need to provide any additional guidance. She was very on top of managing his blood sugar levels and his anxiety and Porkchop seemed genuinely happy in the video clips she shared of him. She did fantastic with his insulin injections and contacted us when necessary but not excessively which I appreciated a ton. We would absolutely trust Anke with Porkchop again. She even did all of this quite last minute as well which just makes it even more exemplary to me. Absolutely wonderful pet sitter and very attentive to his needs. Wonderful.”
“Thanks to Ferdinand and family - Remy had a great time staying for the weekend. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos, and are so happy that Remy was welcomed like a member of the family. Remy loved the attention, walks, and lots of ball games! He is looking forward to seeing you again soon.”
“Alex and Angela, A huge thank you for taking such wonderful care of our dog while we were away! We really appreciated all the updates and knowing that she was happy and well looked after. She seems to have settled in so nicely with you, which made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our time away knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you for treating her like one of your own. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave her with you again and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for kind, reliable and caring dog sitters. 🐾❤️”
“Eliana has a beautiful family home that from the second I arrived, I knew it was the perfect place to leave my puppy, Oscar. Brilliant comms pre during and after and Oscar was extremely well looked after and has come home a very happy pup! 🐶 I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and I’ve been using Rover for some time and I’d say it’s the best sitter I’ve had. Thanks again and look forward to bringing Oscar over again.”
“Liu so kindly accepted a last-minute same day booking request to look after Katsu. She provided plenty of updates throughout the stay and it looked like Katsu had a great time. Would recommend!”
“Very good service. Lovely family, instructions followed .In detail updates regarding my dog everyday with photos and videos. He looked very happy and settled. Will be bringing my dog back again.”
“Mauricio looked after our two mini dachshunds, Pebbles and Bam Bam, for 6 nights and did an amazing job. He sent photos every day, keeping us updated with their walks and all the fun they were having, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for throughout their stay. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend Mauricio to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely loving with dogs!”
“Its a very scary task leaving your fur child with a virtual stranger but Niel is a great sitter that keeps them busy, healthy and happy while you are away. He honors what you want, goes out of his way to help and his own dog is a great playmate! Great communication while away with plenty of pictures and videos :) I couldn't recommend him enough and have already booked our next get away!!!”
“Futon isn't necessarily bad with children, rather, he barks because he wants to play with them. Ideally, I might have chosen without kids, but I also wanted to create opportunities for Futon to interact with kids. When I found out that Kevin's home was nearby and reached out, he kindly said "Let's give it a try", and I truly appreciate his willingness to take on the challenge. This boarding expense was a trial run in preparation for a longer stay in the future. Since it was the first time leaving my dog with someone else, I was nervous. However the moment I met Kevin, I felt reassured by his warm and friendly personality. As we don't have any relatives or friends we can leave our dog with, it's a huge relief to have found someone as trustworthy as Kevin. I am deeply grateful to him and his family for their kindness and care. I look forward to working with them again in the future!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog owner, with a degree in Animal Science and previous professional experience working as an Animal Healthcare Assistant in a veterinary setting. I’ve also looked after friends’ dogs in my own home over the years. I’m confident caring for animals with different personalities and needs, and my previous experience means I’m attentive to their behaviour, wellbeing and all the little signs that tell you how an animal is feeling. I work from home, so dogs staying with me have plenty of company throughout the day, with regular walks, toilet breaks, playtime and plenty of attention. My aim is to offer relaxed, home-from-home care where your dog is treated as part of the family. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks and sleeping arrangements, and I’ll send regular photos and updates while you’re away. I keep things deliberately small-scale so I can get to know the dogs staying with me properly. I have my own dog, Ernie, so I always arrange a meet and greet before a first stay to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable together. I work from home full-time, so I’m around throughout the day to keep your dog company and give them plenty of attention. I can be flexible around their usual routine, including feeding times, toilet breaks and walks. I’m happy to adapt to your dog too, whether they love being active or would rather snooze beside me while I work! I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, relaxed and at home. I have a secure, fully fenced garden and plenty of space for dogs to relax indoors as part of the family. I have my own dog, Ernie, so I always arrange a meet and greet before a first booking to make sure the dogs are comfortable together. I keep the number of dogs I care for small so that everyone gets plenty of individual attention. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine and any care instructions you provide, and I’m always happy to send regular photos and updates so you can see how they’re getting on.
“Andrew was an amazing dog sitter for our two beagles- they were given so much love amd attention. Andrew treated the girls as part of the family. The daily photos showed how dedicated Andrew was, finding new walks everyday to keep them interested..We was able to go away for our daughters wedding with no worries over our girls… we would 100% use Andrew again”
“I needed a dog sitter at very short notice and was a little nervous because it was Matty's first time staying somewhere else. He also has separation anxiety and so it was very important for me to find someone who wouldn't leave him alone and I could rely on someone always being with him. Ronnie and her family looked after Matty very lovingly, as if he was their own dog. A big bonus was the garden where Matty could run around and play. I received daily updates with photos and videos.”
“Jess is lovely, she came and collected Cookie, sent videos and photos of her day with Cookie. Cookie came home very contented, if not a little exhausted by all the fun she had with Jess and her 3 dogs. Highly recommend”
“Good hosts, Our puppy unfortunately wasn’t the right fit, was his first attempt at boarding. Hosts were honest and upfront which we can respect as it shows the dogs are priority over money here, as owners we’d rather know if our pup isn’t the right fit !”
“Blake and Poppie were so great with our dog Barney. He stayed with them for 2 days and prior to his first stay we had a meet & greet set up. They were both so lovely and took such good care of Barney, who can be quite skittish but we know he was in good hands the whole time and really looked after. We got regular updates and photos which was really great and he looked so happy, comfy and made to feel at home in all of them. We would really recommend Blake & Poppie as dog sitters and can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of our little one. I’m sure he’ll be so happy and excited to come back if he goes back for more stays with them.”
“Heather was lovely with our Kobe and took great care of him. She kept us updated with photos of him too, which was appreciated so we knew he was having a good time and being spoilt!”
About: I’ve had dogs since a child and currently have a dog of my own so I am very familiar with how to look after dogs to a high standard. I think dogs should be treated like family and they will always be welcome in my home alongside my dog Whiskey. Please note I have Pet Business Insurance which covers me for the following: - Public Liability - Accidents and Injuries to Animals - Loss of Keys I work from home full time and have a dog of my own so I am used to planning my days around a four legged ball of fluff. I am a total lover of dogs and always make time for walks, play and cuddles. I have a fenced in garden and a dog at home to keep yours company during the day. There are lots of parks local to me which I am very familiar with. My sofas have covers on them so dogs are welcome to snuggle and can roam anywhere in my house. I have a couple baby gates so there is no risk of them being able to run out the front door if I need to open the door. I also have a ring doorbell camera at the front of the house and one facing the garden to provide added security.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Bexley is £35

First of all. A very big thank you to Julia who looked after Minnie whilst we were away. I can not recommend her enough. She was absolutely fantastic with Minnie. She was very professional and catered to Minnie's needs. We were kept informed regularly with pictures and videos of Minnie out and about on walks, playing games , relaxing in the garden and other things that she would get up to. You could see that Minnie was relaxed, comfortable and in good hands. When we picked Minnie up she looked really well and you could tell that she was happy during her stay there.
Gil looked after Honey extremely well & even administered special cream on her tummy for a skin rash (Honey had this before going to stay with Gil) & gave her her usual daily tablets and flea treatment. Gil put my mind at ease everyday by sending a dog log with photos and videos of her day. When I collected Honey I could clearly see the love in the house and how relaxed she was there. Would highly recommend Gil.
We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! He was so well looked after and it was clear from the moment we met that he was in great hands. The sitter was fantastic with him, and his whole family were so lovely and caring too. Our dog seemed really happy and comfortable throughout his stay, which gave us such peace of mind. We would definitely book with him and his family again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! 🐶❤️
So pleased I found Ruchi and Judit to look after our working cocker spaniel for 2 nights . They gave Bailey the best love and care , I had nothing to worry about. Their own dog Parsnip is adorable and she and Bailey became firm friends . The enclosed field right next to their home meant Bailey got all the exercise and fun he needed , just perfect ! I would highly recommend.

I would have given more than 5 stars to Hannah and her family for taking such a good care of my baby. I am always anxious to leave Olive with dog sitters when going away and Hannah made sure that my anxiety as well as my dog's is reduced to none. Olive had a wonderful time and was given so much love and care that I wasn't worried at all when I was away. Thank you Hannah (and family) for all you did, Olive already misses you.
Laura and Ryan are the dream dog sitters!! It was our first time using rover and they made us feel so comfortable from the start, Laura’s communication is great and we really enjoyed the constant updates! Rainey had a great holiday and enjoyed playing with lots of dogs and having cuddles with Laura and Ryan. Thank you so much both of you 🐾
Bridget looked after George for 5 nights recently. I felt very comfortable that he was in safe hands - she's great with dogs and has a very calm nature which suits his personality perfectly. She shared a photo update each day which gave me the level of reassurance i needed to know he was absolutely fine. Would highly recommend 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bexley on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 15,314 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bexley. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Greater London 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 .
