About: Hi, I’m Lizzie! I have experience working with and caring for dogs of different breeds, including Labradors, Golden Retrievers and Maltese. I enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their individual personalities. I’ll take the time to understand your pet’s routine, preferences and needs, follow your care instructions closely, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I mostly work from home, so looking after pets can easily fit into my daily routine. When I looked after my friend’s dogs, I took them out for walks three times a day and sometimes brought them to the park for playtime. At weekends, I also enjoyed taking them to a national park for a short walk. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, but please let me know a few days in advance so I can plan properly around your pet’s needs. Even though I live in an apartment, it is quite spacious and comfortable for pets. The apartment also have access to a rooftop area where pets can move around safely. There is also a large pet shop near my apartment, which is open seven days a week, so any pet essentials can be easily bought if needed.

About: I've been looking after my friends' dogs since 2021 whenever they're away on holiday or travelling for work. Over the years, I've learned how to take care of dogs. I'm a patient, responsible, and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, sticking to their usual routine, or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles, I always aim to provide the same level of care that I would want for my own. I am currently finishing up my PhD, so I have a very flexible schedule since I don't have a traditional 9-5 office job. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I enjoy spending time with animals. I always care for each pet according to their individual routine and the owner's instructions. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise routine, favourite activities, and any special requirements. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“Yesi had a great time with Zoey and Pudding. Zoey is very caring, replies promptly, is on time and sends tons of pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend! ❤️ Would definitely use again!”

“Wivi was great from the moment we were looking for a sitter, amazing communication, you can definitely tell she loves and is committed to dogs. Chumbo clearly enjoyed staying there.”


About: I have taken care of a couple of dogs in the last 3 years. A Shih Tzu and a Schnauzer. I had no prior experience beforehand and have adapted well. I do thorough cleans, play time, walks, feeding, bathing, medicine administration and general care and attention I work from home most of my week and look after my Shih Tzu. I live at home with my wife and I am close to my work so I am very flexible with care commitments if I am ever called into the office I live in a secure apartment with gated access, access to 2 patio gardens, 2 roof top gardens. I have plenty of space, green areas and walkable places near me. I have a small Shih Tzu that is very playful with other dogs

About: I used to work part-time as a dog walker in New York City whilst living there from 2016-2018 and it doesn't get much more stressful than that! I walked dogs all over the city with the Wag app and had a 5⭐️rating. I have experience walking all different types of dog breeds in one of the busiest cities on earth, so rest assured I will provide your dog with a safe and enjoyable walking experience. I am the go-to petsitter for my friends and family and have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, puppies and senior dogs. I am a lifelong animal-lover and grew up with a Dalmatian dog (Pebbles) and two cats (Poppy and Iris). I do not have any pets so your dog will get my undivided attention! I am currently working from home on a freelance basis so my time is flexible. I can structure my day around your pet's needs and provide plenty of walks and breaks outside. I live next to several green spaces and can easily access fantastic walking routes of all different lengths for your dog. I am an incredibly structured and reliable person, so I can cater my time around your pet.
“Beatriz looked after our puppy Tyson today. He had an amazing day and she me kept up updated with photos and videos. He took to her straight away and was really well looked after. Will defo book with her agaon soon.”

“Simeon was absolutely fantastic! My dog Baloo has severe separation anxiety but with Simeon's expertcare what I thought was going to be a nightmare turn out to be stress free and enjoyable for both Baloo and I. Simeon made sure that Baloo had all the exercise and attention that he needed as well as a very flexible schedule for drop-off and pick-up that worked around my chaotic work schedule. I would definitely recommend him personally to anybody looking for someone to care for their pet like they would themselves!”
“Aurora was amazing with Archer! He can be a little shy around new people at first, but she made him feel comfortable and he settled in almost immediately. She sent lots of updates, photos and videos throughout his stay, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear he was having a great time, and I’ll definitely be booking with Aurora again. Highly recommend! ❤️”

About: Growing up, I always looked after my neighbours cats as my parents wouldn’t get me one. Alfie (my young Shihtzu) came in to my life as special friend, and our bond is made in heaven. He’s been through a few surgeries due to his genetic disorder so my partner and I look after him with extra care, and give him the diva treatment cause he deserves every happiness in life. While treating Alfie, we have learned so much about dog care, training, grooming, nutrition and health management that we can diagnose health concerns often by looking at him. We all know our pets really well. My partner and I have become experts in dog care. Alfie loves playing with other dogs, so I have decided to open our flat for boarding and day care. Alfie would love to play with other small/medium dogs. Our first floor apartment is safe and we have a fenced garden downstairs, with access to additional park across the road. We also have all the dog essentials and grooming supplies if required. I’m an assistant professor at the University, and have been teaching for over 9 years, particularly to Year-1 who are new to the universities. I’ve consistently received 95% student satisfaction rate and my students would describe me as ‘trustworthy, reliable, friendly, knowledgeable and supportive’. I teach a few hours at the University, and work from home the remaining hours. I shall be looking after your pet on the days I’m working from home. During the school holidays, there are no classes so I work from home. I’m vigilant about dog safety and pay extra care in ensuring their safety. There’s a fenced garden downstairs and another across the road. It’s a safe neighbourhood and most residents know me and my partner. I’m reliable and friendly, so your dog will be in good hands.
“I left my Winnie with Amar for 4 days whilst I had jury service and he was great! He sent photo/video updates throughout the day so I knew Winnie was okay, and was very accommodating to my drop off/pick up times. It was my first time leaving Winnie with anyone, so I was a bit nervous, but Amar was very relaxed and calm which put my mind at ease. Would definitely recommend and will definitely use Amar again if we need care for Winnie! Thanks Amar!”


“Harper was incredibly caring with Brownie 🥹🥰 I could see how much fun he had, and for the first time, as soon as we got home, he went straight to bed 😂. I’m truly grateful for Harper's love and attention towards him. She shared photos and updates throughout their time together, and seeing them enjoy each other and Brownie settle in peacefully gave me a deep sense of comfort and confidence that he was in good hands 🫶🏾”

If your dog is nervous, reactive or not fully socialised with other dogs or people, we can work with them according to your preferences and instructions. ❤️ Individual care Every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. We take the time to understand what makes your pet comfortable and happy, from their feeding and walking routine to their favourite games and sleeping habits. 🐾 A real home environment We want your dog to feel like they are staying with family — with plenty of attention, affection, playtime and human interaction throughout the day.

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Birmingham
Jiale was amazing! She sent me lots of videos and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Most importantly, my dog was really happy and comfortable staying with her, and that made me feel so reassured. I would definitely recommend Jiale and would happily book with her again! 🐶❤️
Mani was great! I was really anxious about leaving Mouse as she's been a bit difficult recently but Mani was super friendly and reassuring. We have had people struggle with her being high energy and struggling to settle when she is away from home but with Mani she seems to have had a lovely, relaxed day. I was also happy to see her be calm around his dogs as she can be a bit much for other dogs sometimes. I feel like this was a very positive learning experience for her and I'm grateful that I could be confident that she was in safe hands all day.

Sylwia looked after our little Jack Russell Tilly and was really flexible with us. I felt really comfortable leaving Tilly there and she was really well cared for. Sylwia sent us some photos of Tilly while she was looking after her, which was lovely. Would highly recommend

Aurora was amazing with Archer! He can be a little shy around new people at first, but she made him feel comfortable and he settled in almost immediately. She sent lots of updates, photos and videos throughout his stay, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear he was having a great time, and I’ll definitely be booking with Aurora again. Highly recommend! ❤️

Tareq looked after my Dog Winter when I was visiting Birmingham for the day on a conference. I was a little nervous leaving her with someone I hadn't met before, but Tareq's reviews were so positive and communication was great from the outset, so I felt reassured. Needless to say, Winter had a great time!!! I got loads of pictures and updates, and when I collected her she was happy, stress-free, fed and walked. Couldn't ask for more! Thanks Tareq!!!!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care – Birmingham
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Birmingham on Rover is £29 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £22 and £38 per day.
sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,388 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the city of Birmingham. About 86% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.
Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalised environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-to-one attention, and same-day collection and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose 'can host' section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socialising needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters 'Doesn't own a dog' and 'Only accepts one pet at a time' to find the right care.
Many sitters on Rover can help with collection and drop-off! You can find the cost of collection and drop-off in their profile under 'See additional rates'.
If you found a day care close to your home in Birmingham, you can also explore dog walking as an add-on service, which allows your sitter to collect or drop off your dog from their home to yours. Add your location to the search field to find sitters near you and message them directly about transport alternatives.
Day care on Rover takes place in the sitter’s home rather than at a commercial day care facility. At a sitter’s home, your dog’s care is arranged directly with an individual sitter. Depending on the sitter, the day may include walks, play, companionship, rest and care based on the routine you agree on together.
Day care facilities generally care for dogs in a commercial space. Their staffing, dog-grouping practices and available spaces will vary by facility.
Neither option is better than the other. Your dog’s unique needs will determine whether they thrive in a home or facility-based setting.
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 .
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who've never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover, but you're welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you've previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you're booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you'll have a chance to go 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. A Meet & Greet is a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
