“They looked after my dog Freddie at short notice while I was away for a day and night. They kept me updated, sent me pics and took great care of him. Thank you! I would definitely recommend”
“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.”
“Sassy just had a really good stay at Lena's. Lena provided a calm environment for Sassy to settle in to. Being of a some what nervous disposition Sassy likes to take a new stay at her own pace and Lens allowed just that. We had regular updates during the weekend and we collected a calm happy dog at the end of it. Big thank you for looking after our fur face.”
About: Ever since I was a child, dogs have been my greatest joy and most loyal companions. My journey began with Zoey, a loving German Shepherd who was by my side for 13 wonderful years and taught me the true meaning of friendship. More recently, I’ve shared my life with Auri, an adventurous Husky whose playful spirit continues to inspire my love for dogs every day. My love for dogs goes beyond my own pets. I’ve dedicated time to volunteering with local rescues, caring for dogs of all breeds, personalities, and sizes. This experience has taught me how to build trust, provide comfort, and adapt to the unique needs of every dog I meet. Living near a park means daily walks and play are a natural part of my routine. Whether your dog loves energetic games or gentle cuddles, I make sure every pup feels at home, safe, and loved. You can trust that I’ll care for your dog as if they were part of my own family. I work from home, so pet care fits into a set routine: two walks a day, morning and late afternoon, at St Ann's or St Nicholas Rest Garden — enclosed and squirrel-free, good if your dog has a hunting drive. Wee breaks happen at Montpelier Crescent, two minutes from the flat. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends. I have a yard and a spacious living room, plus my own dog for company. I have a crate and space for a second, if yours needs one. Dogs are kept inside.
“Bussa had a wonderful time with his new pals Iona and Swan and we felt confident that he was being well looked after. Will definitely book again. Thanks to you both for making our time away stress free.”
“Sara and Frans stepped in at the last minute and were so friendly and lovely to my dog, I knew very quickly he’d be safe with them. I got lots of updates during his stay with them, and he came back to me very happy. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other pet owners. Thank you so much again Sara and Frans and hope to re book you soon!”
“Peggy had a brilliant day with Connie and Ryan. She went off happily, I received pictures and updates all day and I collected a content dog. Peggy can be a little nervous and felt very relaxed and comfortable with Connie and Ryan. Will be using again. Thank you so much :)”
“Sarah is an excellent dog-sitter. Pip, my elderly border terrier, stayed with Sarah for a long weekend and was very well looked after. Being an older dog, an additional degree of kindness and patience was required for Pip's care and Sarah proved to be very committed to ensuring that Pip was happy and her needs were fully met. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a dog-sitter. Thank you for your kindness and attentiveness in looking after my very special girl.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Oreo received during his two two-night long stays at Leanne’s and Abbey’s place just before Christmas. From the moment he arrived, it was clear he was not just looked after but truly spoiled and treated like part of the family. We received regular daily updates with photos and videos, which were so reassuring and showed how happy he was with his tail wagging constantly and clearly loving his little holidays. They took him for lovely walks by the seaside and even went the extra mile by buying him Christmas presents, which was so thoughtful. Seeing how relaxed and joyful Oreo was made it obvious how well he was cared for. A top-class service and a five-star experience! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leanne and Abbey to anyone looking for fabulous dog sitters. 🐾”
“Sarah was good with our anxious dog, approaching him in a way that allowed him to adjust and seemingly enjoy his stay. She's a good communicator and you can tell she is passionate and caring. We would happily leave Eddie in her care again.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and have lots of experience looking after them! Friends and family often ask me to look after their dogs, and I’ve cared for a range of breeds including Poodles, Cavapoos, Maltese, Whippets and Labradors. I work flexibly from home, and my central Brighton office is dog-friendly too. I have my own private office, so your dog can either stay with me at home or come along to the office with me. I’m happy to work around their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and well looked after. I’d love to meet you and your dog and get to know them before a sit, so please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to arrange a meet-and-greet. I’d be very happy to chat! 🐶 I work flexibly and can either work from home or from a dog-friendly office in central Brighton. I have a private office space that’s usually just shared with one other colleague, making it a calm and comfortable environment for dogs during the day. I have a spacious three-storey home on the Brighton/Hove border, with the beach and Hove Lawns right on our doorstep — perfect for walks!
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years, including dog sitting in owners homes as well as providing one to one care in my own home. I also offer lovely walks tailored to each individual dog. I had my own beloved Westie for 12 years, so I understand the special bond we have with our dogs. Over the years, I've cared for a wide range of breeds, from Red Setters to Cavachons, as well as nervous, reactive and senior dogs. I regularly look after an anxious Frenchie and understand the importance of patience, reassurance and letting a dog go at their own pace. I'm happy to follow each owner's routines and instructions, including feeding, medication walks and bedtime. I really enjoy getting to know each dog's personality and building a trusting connection with them. I'm caring, reliable and friendly, and my priority is always that your dog feels safe, settled and well cared for while they're with me. I work part-time providing home support and pet care, which gives me flexibility during the week. I'm available for dog walking and pet sitting, and I always make sure I can give each dog the time, attention and care they need. I currently have some bookings through December and January, but I'm happy to discuss future dates and plan ahead wherever possible. My availability varies depending on existing bookings, so please feel free to message me with your dates and I'll let you know what I can accommodate. I provide calm, caring one to one care and take the time to help each dog feel safe and settled. In my own home, I have a one-bedroom flat, so dogs staying with me receive regular walks and toilet breaks throughout the day, as well as a final toilet break before bedtime. I make sure they have a comfortable, quiet space to relax and plenty of companionship and attention. when caring for a dog in their own home, I follow the owners instructions and keep to their usual routine as much as possible. I understand that familiar surroundings are particularly important for nervous, older or anxious dogs. I'm happy to follow specific feeding, walking, medication and bedtime arrangements, and I treat every home and dog with care and respect. My aim is always for your dog to feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you're away.
“I would happily use Gemma again to look after my dog, Honey. Gemma is very friendly and kept me updated regularly with messages, videos and photos whilst looking after Honey. Gemma was also very thoughtful and brought treats with her for Honey to have. Honey was very at ease and relaxed after Gemma had been caring for her.”
“Daphne was very welcoming and caring four our two dogs. Giving updates and pictures on walks etc, which was appreciated. The dogs looked very well on collection and I think would love to go back again when the opportunity arises.”
“We always feel so comfortable leaving our little pug, Dijon, with KT. She is incredibly attentive, sends us lots of updates, and always makes us feel at ease. Dijon comes back happy, tired and socialised. We will absolutely be using her and her partner again in the future - they are our go-to dog-sitters! Thank you xx”
“Hugo seems to have enjoyed his time with Clara and her little dog. Communication was easy and she was able to accommodate Hugo at short notice. Clara updated me on how he was doing during his stay. I would recommend.”
“We left our dog with Arnav for five days and she had a wonderful time all through. All the walks and meals were taken care of well and we recieved regular updates and pictures every day. It was a very homely vibe. Very satisfied with the service and highly reccommend.”
“Jessica was wonderful with Sophie and kindly helped me at very short notice. She gave Sophie lots of love and attention, and her private garden was a real bonus for her. Jessica sent me reassuring photos, videos and updates throughout, which gave me great peace of mind. I was initially concerned about Sophie potentially accessing the steep staircase leading down to the basement area, as she is an older dog, but Jessica listened carefully and reassured me by making sure the door remained securely closed so that Sophie could not reach it. I really appreciated how responsive and attentive she was to Sophie’s safety and needs. Sophie looked happy and comfortable with her, and I would be very pleased to ask Jessica to care for her again.”

I was initially very anxious about leaving Bella with someone else. After meeting Jodie, I knew Bella was in safe hands. I was sent photos and videos of Bella whilst I was on holiday, and I could see how happy Bella was. I would definitely recommend Jodie and I will be definitely be asking for Bella to stay with her again!!
We had exceptional experience with Molly, and Sheldon really enjoyed his stay! Molly took a great care of our dog, and had been sharing daily updates with photos and videos for the peace of mind. All communication and coordination was enjoyable too, and we certainly reach out to Molly again in the future!
Sarah had Poppy overnight at very short notice. I was very anxious about leaving her for the first time away from me, but Sarah was kind and understanding. She sent me videos, pics and updates which helped me tremendously. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Sarah in the future. Thank you so much ❤️
Iggy was very relaxed and happy when we collected him, to be able drop him off at 7pm and collect on the same night at 11.30pm suited us perfectly while we went to see a band, as we were not allowed to leave him in the Air B&B unattended, value for money, perfect for our needs and happy dog, thank you Chih
Saskia has been amazing - she has cared so well for Rosie and done so many lovely things with her. Rosie is a quiet little dog who can be a bit nervous at first but Saskia won her confidence and helped her settle and feel at home. I can unhesitatingly recommend her as an excellent and kind dog sitter.

Gemma was absolutely wonderful with Sophie and gave me such peace of mind. She first helped me at short notice for a few hours, and then looked after Sophie again while I was in hospital. On the day of my surgery, Gemma thoughtfully arranged to work remotely so that she could stay with Sophie and keep her company. She was so warm, gentle and attentive—taking Sophie for walks, cuddling with her on the sofa, and making a comfortable bed for Sophie beside her own bed so that Sophie wouldn’t feel alone overnight. Gemma sent me lovely photo and video updates throughout, which were incredibly reassuring. Sophie looked relaxed, happy and very comfortable with her. I’m so grateful for the care and affection Gemma gave her and would happily ask her to look after Sophie again. Highly recommended!
I was really happy with the way Edwina looked after Blue. She kept me up to date so I knew he was having a good time, having lots of walks and got a trip or two to the beach! He was happy and tired when I picked him up, which was great :-) I highly recommend her as a friendly, kind and trustworthy sitter.
Chloë accepted Fynn as a v. last minute booking which I was extremely grateful for. During the stay, her care and knowledge helped give Fynn a loving and fantastic experience. Communication was excellent - with pupdates throughout and specific questions to ensure that Fynn received the best guidance when needed. We only hope she'll accept us again in the future. 5 stars!

When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog has an overnight booking in a sitter’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.
The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one pet owner's pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.
Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Boarding. With 1,952 sitters in Brighton, 61% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
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.

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.
