“Five stars isn’t enough for Charlie and Gary! They looked after Lola, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the start, they were incredibly attentive, asked lots of questions at the meet and greet, and then followed Lola's care instructions. We were so grateful for the frequent photo updates, it really put our minds at ease seeing her so happy and settled while we were away. Lola had a blast on all her lovely walks, and the best part was seeing her bond with their dog, Jenny. By the time we picked her up, they were buddies! It’s such a relief to find sitters who truly treat your pup like family (and let's her snuggle on the sofa!) We would recommend Charlie and Gary in a heartbeat and will definitely be booking with them again in the future. Thanks again, guys!”
“Izabella was absolutely wonderful with our little boy. She showered him with love and cuddles, kept him thoroughly entertained, and her communication throughout was excellent, we received constant updates and photos. We would wholeheartedly recommend her.”
“Katie looked after Hugo beautifully and he enjoyed his stay. Really good communication throughout. Hugo settled quickly and made himself at home and enjoyed the attention. I felt very relaxed knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely use Katie again 😃”
About: Hi! I’m 22 years old and have been around animals my entire life. I have looked after big breeds like bullmastiffs and cats regularly, so I’m very comfortable with both large dogs and the individual routines and loveable quirks of cats! In the past, I’ve also owned and cared for rabbits and bearded dragons which has given me experience with a wide range of temperaments and care needs. As a masters student, I attend university only twice a week, so aside from my lectures, I can dedicate all my time to caring for your pet. If your dog is sociable, I can arrange safe introductions with friendly pets of my neighbours or nearby family members. If your pet prefers a quieter environment, they’ll have my flat to themselves, ensuring they never feel overwhelmed. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and on Mondays and Wednesdays before 11am and after 4pm for drop ins or visits! Your dogs safety and comfort are my top priority. My flat has a secure balcony with high fencing, providing safe ventilation if your dog needs fresh air while I step out briefly. I have a crate suitable for all sizes, including large breeds like a bullmastiff, so your dog can rest securely when needed. For exercise and outdoor fun, I live next to a beautiful countryside field with a lake, perfect for safe, scenic walks. Every aspect of their environment is designed to keep them happy, secure and cared for.
About: I am from a doggy family - we had a boxer, bulldogs, a basset hound and pugs growing up. We also had litters of puppies! Loads of hands on experience with all dogs, big and small! I now have a French bulldog, Louis, who would love some company. Please don’t be put off that I live in an apartment- it’s Thorndon Hall, a listed converted mansion with lovely grounds and backing onto thorndon country park. We are on the top floor penthouses but have a lift, so your dog will get lots of trips downstairs for the toilet and sniffs and lovely walks in the woods. I work from and so am home all day. My partner is around too and my 13 year old daughter will also be on hand to make a fuss. Our dog sleeps in the bed with my daughter or with us, so your dog will also be able to sleep in with us if they’d like. Our dog gets on well with all female dogs. For males, it would be good to have them meet briefly beforehand, just to be sure. He is great with all of the dogs in our family and at his own dog sitters, but unneutured males have been known to make him a bit unsettled. I work at home, so will be present with your dog all day. We will take my daughter to school and then go for a walk together. We’ll then have breakfast and rest, head out again at lunchtime and then again at dinner. We always go for a last little walk around the grounds just before bed. We have large grounds, with plenty of areas to sniff and explore. We do doggy things in the evenings and weekends, with country park walks, beach walks and dog park trips. We have a crate if your dog needs alone time and plenty of space and separate rooms. I am confident and happy administering medication and following diet plans where needed. I want your dog to feel as relaxed and happy as possible, so will tailor what we do to their needs and to align with their home schedule.
“Rocky had the best day with Jennifer. He was very well looked after and he kept on running back to her when I picked him up, which is unlike him as he can take a long time to get used to someone. She kept me updated the whole day with photos and videos, which was lovely.”
“Laura is a real dog lover and hence provided Otto our miniature dachshund with lots of love and attention when he stayed with her overnight. She followed all our requests and was responsive and reliable. She sent us photos and videos to reassure us he was settling in ok. I have no reservation in recommending her to other dog owners. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Another fabulous overnight stay for Bailey…..Jane always keeps us posted with regular updates and photos and makes him part of her family for his stay. I always know he is in good hands when I leave him with her.”
About: I’ve recently relocated from London to Brentwood and I’m looking to meet some new local pups! Over the last decade, I’ve handled everything from high-energy puppies who need help with their basic commands and potty training, to older dogs who just want a quiet companion. I’m reliable, tidy, and most importantly, I genuinely love Dogs! Since I’m new to the area, I’m currently building up my local client base and would love to meet you and your dog for a "Meet & Greet" to see if we’re a good fit! I work from home 3x a week, i would love to take care of another furry friend alongside my little frenchie! Long weekends are when i spend the most time with my dog :) I have a play area and crate available, we also have a park nearby that i usually go to for longer walks, my frenchie and dogs ive taken care of loves it there!
“Can not recommend Serena more. After Olive's doggy care fell through last minute, Serena came to the rescue. She and her partner were so extremely accommodating, not only taking Olive in on the same day but providing such great communication and care throughout. Olive can be a touch of a sensitive soul at time however, from the snaps that Serena send over during the 4 night stay, settled in immediately. She made us feel extremely reassured throughout the stay took incredible care of our little pooch - would recommend highly. Communicate: 10/10 Doggy love and Care 100/10”
“Nicole is absolutely wonderful with my dog, who can be challenging as he doesn’t like strangers. My dog loves seeing Nicole because he gets taken on runs, outings and gets to sunbathe in Nicole’s garden. Would highly recommend booking Nicole as a sitter.”
“Gabriella was honestly so lovely with my dog. From the start, she made sure he was comfortable and settled, and I could tell he felt really safe with her. She sent me updates while I was away, which I really appreciated (especially as an anxious dog mum). When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and even smelled really nice! Which says a lot about how well she looked after him. You can tell she genuinely cares and puts in the effort. I’d 100% book her again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and kind to look after their dog!!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care that Basil Boris provided for our dogs, Hugo and Peppa! From the moment we met, it was clear that they genuinely love animals. Peppa is 15 years old and requires a little extra attention like eye drops and cleaning and she was perfectly looked after. It really put our minds at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. Meanwhile, Hugo had a blast with their two other dogs and came home happy and well exercised. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the stay, which made us feel completely connected to our pets while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found such a reliable and caring sitter for our fur babies. We’ll definitely be booking them again in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Basil Boris, for taking such wonderful care of Hugo and Peppa!”
“We really couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after Cooper. Molly made it a home from home for him and kept us updated with lots of pictures, and even managed to teach him to fetch and drop! Couldn’t recommend enough.”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, caring approach and genuine love for dogs of all ages and personalities. I’ve had dogs my whole life, including a Staffie, Old English Bulldog, and Frenchie, and I’ve also cared for a German Shepherd and other family dogs. I’m currently caring for a Cockapoo puppy, so I’m very familiar with puppy routines, basic training, and lots of playtime and patience! I also have experience with senior dogs who may need extra gentle care or medication support. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, so I can give dogs plenty of attention and company on those days, and I’m flexible the rest of the week to fit your dog’s routine. I always aim to keep things consistent, calm, and stress-free for every pet. At my home, I have a large fenced garden that’s perfect for safe playtime and throwing a ball, so dogs can burn off energy in a secure space. I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like part of the family.
“Elisa looked after my dog so well that my dog didn't even want to come home with me. I was so relaxed while I was away knowing Elisa looks after my dog and she sent photos daily to keep me updated.”

Elle was wonderful with our dog Lola. She stayed with her for 4 days and we did a visit beforehand to make sure Lola was comfortable and a good fit for Elle. Elle gave us regular updates about Lola’s walks, food and sleeping and sent us some lovely photos. You can see she genuinely cares about dogs and enjoys being around them. Lola had a wonderful time 🤩
Jana was incredibly easy to communicate with - responsive, friendly and very helpful. She looked after our older, blind dog extremely conscientiously and kindly. She sent us regular updates and was super happy to be flexible around us. Highly recommended! Thanks, Jana
Couldn’t recommend Caitlin enough! She looked after our dog so well and we felt completely at ease. She really went above and beyond by taking him to and from our wedding venue so he could be our ring bearer. It made the day so much easier for us, and we loved being able to have him there without having to worry about a thing. A big thank you to Caitlin’s lovely mum as well, who helped look after him. It was so clear they both genuinely cared about him, and he was treated like one of the family. Our boy had the best time, and we’re so grateful for everything they did. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Caitlin again. Thanks so much!
Serena took charge of my chihuahua at very short notice, I am so grateful for her looking after Lola. I had photos and videos updating me and so pleased she settled in well. Sam and Serena are such a lovely couple and will be definitely booking again with them. Lola came home so happy. Thank you both 😊
I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for Dolly! She was treated like one of the family and genuinely looked after as if she were her own pet. Dolly was absolutely spoiled with love, attention, and cuddles, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. We also had regular updates and pictures from Laura. Dolly was taken out regularly, had lots of fun adventures, and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It was obvious how much affection and care she received. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dedicated to looking after their dog.
Hugo had a fab time staying with Travis for the night. We had great communication throughout so I knew how he was doing. Travis cared for Hugo beautifully and followed his routine. He took him for a good walk annd regular toilet bteaks and I felt relaxed knowing her was in safe hands. I will definitely use Travis again.
2nd sleepover with Ashley & Layla couldn't have been more excited. Practically dragged me to Ashley's door & squealed until she let us in. Layla may not be able to talk but she made it clear how wonderful shw thinks Ahsley is and this makes me happy knowing that she is having a great time. Ashley always sends updates and doors on Layla nearly as much as I do. I cant recommend Ashley enough and if I cod wod give more stars 💯
Jay is outstanding! We left koda in his care and though we were a bit reluctant (as any 5month old pup’s mum would), we honestly had the greatest experience. Jay’s communication was amazing, we never had to ask for updates; they just came unprompted and we loved it, receiving updates often reassured us that our Koda was not only having the best time, but that Jay also truly cared about making us feel stress free. We will 100% use Jay’s services again and could not recommend him more!
Evelina has been amazing. At the last minute she agreed to take Nula for a couple of days which went well. Evelina then agreed to have her for a couple more days which has been a great help and saved alot of stress. I would book her again without a doubt. She sends photos and videos of Nula too which is great

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Brentwood on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 14,212 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brentwood. 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 East of England 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 .
