“We can't thank Ana, Jacob and her family enough for looking after Boycie and spoiling him for the 2 weeks we were away. We were totally at ease and happy with the knowledge that he was having the love and wonderful care that we would give him. Thank you so much for taking him in and giving him a wonderful temporary home.”
“Tia and Matt took amazing care of our peanut at their home whilst away abroad. They were accommodating to Peanuts needs and routine. We had constant updates with pictures of their adventures and cwtches throughout the week that put us at ease whilst away. Would highly recommend and definitely be using them in the future. Peanut has come back content and happy, looking forward to her next holiday!! Thanks guys so much 🥰 xx”
“Trixie had a lovely stay with Amy and Skye. Trixie had been staying at kennels but has grown too used to her home comforts for this. Amy put our minds at ease at our first meeting, we knew Trixie would be made to feel safe, comfortable and just as well looked after as she is at home! During Trixie’s stay we received lots of updates showing what a great time Trixie was having and how she’d so easily made herself at home thanks to Amy. We’d highly recommend Amy and Trixie will be looking forward to a second visit soon!”
“Tamara was fantastic with Lili! She was so kind and caring! She sent daily updates with photos and videos which I absolutely loved. Her communication was fantastic! I felt so good leaving my baby in her hands! I would highly recommend her!”
“Dexter, my 7-month-old bundle of energy, had the best time staying with Kate and Cal over the weekend! He came home absolutely played out — which is no small feat with this little whirlwind! 😄 Right from the start, he was made to feel completely at home. It really felt like a home-from-home, and I loved knowing he was allowed to settle in and make himself comfortable (which he definitely did!). Kate and Cal kept in great contact and sent through some lovely photo updates — it was so reassuring to see him happy and having fun while I was away. Thank you both for taking such brilliant care of Dexter — he’ll definitely be back for another visit!”
“Hayley was a fantastic sitter , and her dog got on really well with Angie , it was one big mistake play date! She was very accommodating and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Shelbie and her family took wonderful care of our boy Cosmo with regular updates and pictures left us feeling well assured that he was having loads of fun with them They definitely went above and beyond Thank you again Shelbie so much 🌟”
“Our initial request for overnight boarding with Lauren was responded to within a very short time and booking agreed. Lauren invited us to take Eevie to meet her and to familiarise herself with where she would be staying and also an opportunity to discuss Eevie's routines. Communication was excellent throughout her stay with many photo's of Eevie and what she was getting up to throughout the day. Unfortunately, Eevie was sick while in Lauren's care and she contacted me immediately to let me know the situation and took her to the vet on our behalf (as we were over 140 miles away. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND LAUREN and would definitely look to re-book her to look after our little one again We did collect our dog early, but this was our decision. Lauren did offer to refund part of the overnight stay fee as we collected her late in the evening, but we felt that Lauren had definitely gone over and above and had certainly earned the full fee with her caring for dog.”
“Unfortunately one of our dogs was rather naughty during the night which hadn’t happened previously. However, the way in which Jason and Emily cared for him with kindness and compassion was brilliant. I would thoroughly recommend them and just hope that Bobby settles down and will be able to go back to them once this phase is over!”
“Honestly could fault Amie and her partner. They had Freddie for a night, last minute booking, meet and greet completed, and it was honestly so refreshing to feel so comfortable leaving your dog at someone else's house. Constant pupdates, a very happy dog, and very reasonable price. Will definitely be using Amie and her partner again.”
“Danielle has been so great with Lebby, she made sure she felt safe and comfortable to approach at her own pace. Danielle and her family were very patient with Lebby, and kept her schedule as is which helped her feel much more confident and less stressed which meant she went back to her routine much faster. The updates and videos were great to put my mind at ease while I am on holiday. Thank you for taking such good care of my cat!”
“I can't thank Theodora enough for looking after Hugo on such short notice. I was anxious about leaving him for the first time however Theodora reassured me, she sent us updates and pictures throughout his stay. Would definitely recommend ⭐️ Hugo came home after a fun weekend with Theodora and her dog Puddles a happy and tired puppy 🐶Thank you again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate Mary is about animals. She took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, which instantly put me at ease. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made such a difference and reassured me that Rosie was happy and well looked after. It was obvious Rosie felt comfortable, relaxed, and even a little spoiled! When I returned, everything was exactly as I’d hoped — a happy, healthy dog and a home that was just as I left it. I would absolutely recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my dog!”
“Dai is brilliant with me dog Kiwi, she loves staying there. He has a lovely home and takes such good care of her, he sends me photos and updates throughout her stay which makes me feel very calm and at ease. Have used and will continue to use again and again. Thanks a lot. Hannah & Kiwi”
“Our boy Max had an amazing two weeks with Sian. We were dreading leaving him but he really did have an amazing holiday himself. Sian is kind, warm and friendly, treating Max with care and attention. Sian takes the dogs out a lot - always off for walks or visits to different places. She is great at communication - sending many messages, photos and videos, which we looked forward to seeing and made us happy as we could see Max was in very safe hands. I really cannot recommend Sian highly enough. 😊😊”
“Really happy with how well Laura looked after Watson and Indi - as if they were her own! Got regular updates, and a last minute complication with Indi requiring medication an a cone of shame didn’t phase her in the slightest. Would definitely highly recommend ❤️ thank you Laura!”
“Cerri tended to all Fins needs and went above and beyond when caring for Finley for the week. I would highly recommend Cerri as outstanding homeboarder. Fin will definitely be going back to stay with Cerri and husband. A huge thank you for looking after my boy. X”
“We were so pleased with Avalon and the care she provided for Winky during her stay!! She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated with lota of photos and messages. Winky enjoyed plenty of walks and loads of attention, she was so clearly loved and looked after!! Avalon was caring and friendly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
About: Nijo & Jenny Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up in a home with multiple dogs and cats and have cared for pets for many years. Over time, I have looked after and cared for dogs ranging from small breeds to large breeds, each with their own unique personalities, needs and routines. As a Merchant Navy Officer, I have 2 mo tha rotation, where I am onboard for 2-3 and at home on leave for 2-3 months. During my leave periods, I am home full-time for up to two months at a stretch, allowing me to provide plenty of companionship, exercise and supervision. My wife and I are both passionate animal lovers and regularly help friends with their dogs. Due to my work pattern we are unable to get a dog ourselves currently but we try to compensate that by lending a hand to our friends with pets. We understand that every pet is different, and we strive to provide a safe, loving and stress-free home away from home where pets are treated as part of the family. We ourselves use rover when we go for vacations and understand the situation, we strive to create a second home for your furry friends and would be part of our family. When I am on leave from work, I am available at home full-time and can dedicate my attention to your pet throughout the day. This allows me to maintain their usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, rest periods and plenty of companionship. I enjoy spending time outdoors and regularly visit local walking areas such as Brynna Woods and Smilog Woods. Depending on your dog's preferences and energy levels, I can also provide longer walks, park visits and beach outings. I only accept one household's dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives individual attention and a calm environment. Your pet's safety and wellbeing are my highest priorities. My wife and I live in a spacious home with a secure fenced back garden, providing a safe environment for dogs to relax, play and explore. We also share our home with our friendly domestic shorthair cat, Simba, who is comfortable around dogs that respect her space. Before every booking, I take time to understand your pet's routine, preferences, dietary requirements and any special instructions. My wife is a medical doctor and is happy to assist with routine medications if required, providing additional reassurance for owners whose pets may need ongoing treatment during their stay. I only accept one household's dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives individual attention, plenty of supervision and a calm environment. I will also provide regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, comfortable and well cared for.
About: We've been housesitting for over 4 years now and have completed 30+ housesits, consistently leaving pets very happy and houses well cared for and clean. We have had the pleasure of taking care of a variety of pets, different breeds and ages, from young and energetic to older and more relaxed. We’ve cared for small dogs (Yorkshire terriers) all the way through labradors, cocker spaniels and up to Rottweiler/ German shepherd cross and a 50kg Greek Shepherd. We now have our own house and a gorgeous cocker spaniel who is just over 1 years old, who is very well behaved and friendly with other dogs. We have a safe fenced garden and plenty of great walks to go on nearby. We're comfortable administering medication, including insulin injections and heart medication, and we understand the importance of timing to ensure the pets receive their medication on schedule. We love going on long adventures with dogs, exploring new places as well as keeping the pets company around the house. We work from home so will always be around to keep your dog company and we have plenty of time for play time and walks. We also have a 1 year old female cocker spaniel who is very well socialised and loves to play. We live on a safe quiet road with a fenced garden. We have plenty of dog toys already to play with and a big sofa for cuddles!

Tia and partner Mat have gone above and beyond. They have kept us updated with several photos daily. They have spoilt him and treated him like their own dog. It was very reassuring on a daily basis that harvey was happy and comfy with them. Harvey has had a great time with them. We would highly recommend them for anyone to book. We will definitely be booking again.
Honestly could fault Amie and her partner. They had Freddie for a night, last minute booking, meet and greet completed, and it was honestly so refreshing to feel so comfortable leaving your dog at someone else's house. Constant pupdates, a very happy dog, and very reasonable price. Will definitely be using Amie and her partner again.
Vinnie had a great time with Alex and Thom. Alex sent photos and a little update each day. Vinnie is a busy boy, but he had lots of walks and fun to tire him out. He's currently still fast asleep, 3 hours after we picked him up. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Thank you :)
Jason looked after my two dogs while they were boarded with him and honestly did a fantastic job. He kept me updated constantly with messages and lots of pictures, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It was obvious the dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time. I could tell he genuinely cares about animals and treats them like his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jason again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Kate and Calum looked after Sam brilliantly and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better sitters. It was my first time leaving him, so I was quite nervous as he’s an ex street dog and can be a bit of a handful at times, but they handled him so well and had absolutely no issues with him at all. It was obvious he was happy, settled and well cared for while he was with them, which gave me real peace of mind. They kept me updated, were really kind and patient with him, and clearly genuinely love dogs. I’d happily book with them again and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters. Thank you both again for looking after sam so well 🐾
Really happy with how well Laura looked after Watson and Indi - as if they were her own! Got regular updates, and a last minute complication with Indi requiring medication an a cone of shame didn’t phase her in the slightest. Would definitely highly recommend ❤️ thank you Laura!
Cherie took care of my 4 month old puppy Bluebell - I felt comfortable leaving Bluebell, Cherie read through Bluebell’s care info and asks some additional questions and sent some photos for me too whilst I was away. Bluebell has been taken for a walk before I collected her, which was perfect because then she was sleepy for our car journey back home.
Trixie had a lovely stay with Amy and Skye. Trixie had been staying at kennels but has grown too used to her home comforts for this. Amy put our minds at ease at our first meeting, we knew Trixie would be made to feel safe, comfortable and just as well looked after as she is at home! During Trixie’s stay we received lots of updates showing what a great time Trixie was having and how she’d so easily made herself at home thanks to Amy. We’d highly recommend Amy and Trixie will be looking forward to a second visit soon!
Lauren had our two dogs for two nights and did a great job with them. They came back nice and sleepy so they clearly had plenty of exercise, she sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very communicative. She had a great setup for looking after dogs with plenty of indoor and outdoor space and plenty of toys too. Would highly recommend
Roxy loved her stay with Emma. She was happy when we left her and Emma was great in accommodating any requests we had around feeding. Emma provided regular updates and photos of Roxy during her 10 day stay which were very much appreciated. Will definitely leave Roxy with Emma next time.
Jager had an amazing stay with Alessandro and Rachel. Honestly can’t thank them enough for the communication over the time jager was with them. They both spent time to get to know jägers personality when she was there and this put me at ease and jager. She’s never been so content. I’m sure she can’t wait for her next stay as she was spoilt rotten and given alot of love. Thank you both

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Bridgend
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bridgend on Rover is £37.95 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 503 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bridgend. 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 Wales 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 .
