“Daphne was a fantastic pet sitter for Bluey. She had him over night whilst we went out to a festival in town. She took him for a walk each day and looked after his every need. Bluey was sad to go in the end when we picked him up. We would not hesitate to leave Bluey with Daphne again anytime he was super looked after. Thank you. Wayne, Dee and Bluey”
“I can’t recommend Talabi more highly, Monty had such a lovely time during his stay with Talabi, he was happy as a happy thing. We received pics and videos every day, Talabi was patient and spent time training Monty, she is absolutely fabulous and clearly a dog lover. I will not hesitate to use Talabi again in future, in fact, Monty is looking forward to his next visit. Thanks so much for taking such wonderful care of him.”
“Lenny staying was my first time using Rover and Sarah really put me at my ease. She was brilliant with her contact prior to Lenny coming to stay and was prompt with replies. I had absolutely no worries about him staying with Sarah, her family and Buzz. Sarah sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how Lenny was getting on. He looked like he had a fab time and was exhausted when he came home! I would have absolutely no qualms having Sarah look after Lenny again and would definitely recommend her”
“Sarah looked after Juno at really short notice and was brilliant. Juno took to her straight away, and Sarah kept us updated throughout, which we appreciated. We came back to a happy, relaxed dog. She’s reliable, kind and great with dogs. Happy to recommend her and would book again.”
“Joely was amazing! I left my doggo with her for four days and she took care of her really well and kept me updated the whole time. She was sending me photos and videos and I didn't have to worry about my dog ❤️ she's great and I definitely recommend her to anyone. We will also ask her to take care of her again”
“Hannah is lovely! It was the first time we had left our dog with anyone and she can be reactive wirh other dogs. Hannahs communication before and during our holiday was brilliant, we did a meet before and she sent photos while we were away. Bear looked very happy and relaxed! Hannah and Ryan are obviously experienced with dogs and genuinely care for the animals they look after. Thank you so much!”
“We leave Harry with Michaela and Simon for the second time now. We feel absolutely safe when he is with them. I couldn't wish for better sitters than this family. Thank you very much.”
“Clara is brilliant. Alfie has just returned from 3 nights with her and I can tell he had a great time. She was so welcoming and I immediately felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She clearly loves dogs and Alfie got on very well with her dog Vincent. She’s also an excellent communicator and was flexible when I needed to change drop off and pick up times. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”
“Alex was such a great carer for our nervous Cockapoo, Hiccup. Alex shared lots of photos & videos of Hiccup’s stay. I can see he’s very patient & encouraging towards hiccup which makes me so happy to see. Was also lovely that there were other dogs as once Hiccup feels comfortable he loves playing with them. We’ve booked Alex again for an upcoming holiday we’re going on!”
“Thank you Valentina! Cleo had a brilliant time, and we enjoyed the regular video messages of her walking in the countryside with lots of doggy friends. She's already looking forward to her next visit to you :)”
“Can’t thank Leanne and Abbi enough for taking such fabulous care of my precious boy Fraser. Appreciated lots of daily updates and plenty of photos. Which really put me at ease that he was being spoilt rotten, and have a wonderful time Can’t recommend you enough!! Fraser has had his his own little holiday with you. He’ll be so pleased to see you in a couple of weeks 🐶❤️❤️❤️”
“Apollo and Brutus enjoyed a lovely stay with you this week. They seemed to have made themselves very much at home and were clearly happy playing with the girls. Looking forward to next visit.”
“Laura was great with Effy, good communication throughout and took her on a couple of good walks. Was clear that she is very comfortable around dogs and has a lovely caring nature. We would not hesitate trusting her with Effy again, thank you Laura!”

Highly recommend Harriet. She was able to help us out at the last minute and had Baxter for an overnight visit. Communication was great and we received regular updates and photos until Baxter was asleep. He seemed very happy the next morning to the point where he tried to lead me back to Harriet’s door when we left!
Henry had the best time at Maria’s. He played the whole time with her dog Lorca and has come home very sleepy. They were super cute together. And maria is very lovely. It’s my first time using her and I would highly recommend her. She kept me updated with videos and always responded quickly. Thank you!
Bambi had the loveliest time with Luke! He was gentle and sensitive to her shy, anxious nature, and we could see that she was very comfortable with him quickly. He sent us loads of updates through the day (which we always LOVE!) and sent a full update at the end of the day sharing everything they did & how she's doing. This really helped set our minds at ease & we loved to see that she's enjoying herself! Will definitely work with Luke again! 🙌🐾❤️
Nicola was wonderful with Leia. She was incredibly kind and agreed to help me out at very short notice, even though she’d only just got back from holiday that day. She kept me updated during Leia’s stay, and it was obvious from the photos and when I collected her that Leia had been very happy and well looked after. I’d happily leave Leia with Nicola again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.
Andra was so wonderful with our huge, neurotic weimaraner (Goose) - she took excellent care of him and managed to get him to settle, no small feat! We travelled down to Brighton from Manchester and there were some delays along the way - Andra was so flexible and accommodating, and just took all of the stress out of the day. All throughout the stay Andra sent us photos and videos of what they were up to, including some amazing beach walks. We cannot thank you enough Andra!
Gonzo had a great time with Iona and Swan. I was pretty nervous leaving him for the night as he has issues with his back, but I need't have worried, as he was looked after well and got his medication without fuss. He settled nicely and was even a little grumpy when I woke him from a nap to take him home! Thanks again :)
Ziggy tends to be a little nervous the first time he goes to a sitter. But Alex gave him all the space and respect, gently introducing him to other dogs and giving him attention whenever he needed. I could see in images and videos throughout the day how he opened up and felt more at home, giving Alex cuddles later in the day even. He came back tired and pleased! (Literally crushed as soon as we got to the airbnb). Absolutely grateful to Alex for accommodating us and hugely recommended! We will definitely return.
What can I say Molly was absolutely wonderful. I have nothing but good words to say about her. She took Ivy out all the time to the most lovely places multiple times a day and my Ivy looked so happy and content. We got regular updates and photos and I even asked her for an extra day at short notice and she was more than happy too. I can’t thank her enough and I would highly recommend and 100% use her again 🥰
Sara and her husband gave our dog the most wonderful home-from-home while we were away on holiday for two weeks. From the moment we met them, it was obvious how much they genuinely love dogs, and we knew straight away that Gwen would be in the best possible hands. They showered her with love, care and attention, treating her like one of their own. Gwen had an amazing time with them, and she genuinely missed them when she came home! We couldn’t have asked for better people to look after such an important member of our family. We can’t recommend Sara and her husband highly enough, and we’ll definitely be booking with them again.
Daphne was a fantastic pet sitter for Bluey. She had him over night whilst we went out to a festival in town. She took him for a walk each day and looked after his every need. Bluey was sad to go in the end when we picked him up. We would not hesitate to leave Bluey with Daphne again anytime he was super looked after. Thank you. Wayne, Dee and Bluey
Paige was absolutely amazing with our puppy Snowden who she had for a full week whilst we were away. I know he can be a handful, as he’s a five month old teething puppy, but she took everything in her stride and clearly is wonderful with dogs. She made us feel so comfortable leaving him for the first time and kept us really well updated. I cannot recommend Paige more with dog care and would love for Snowden to go spend time with Paige again! Thank you Paige and Billy!
Nunzia was fabulous. Very responsive and a very chirpy and friendly dog sitter. We first chatted via video call which she kindly set up via google meet and we had a lovely chat to discuss Milos needs. I was always updated with pics and messages and when I picked him up he looked nice, tidy and happy. Thank you Nunzia :-)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Brighton on Rover is £36.8 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,863 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Brighton. 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 South East 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 .
