“I recommend ching to anyone wanting their pet to be well cared for. She watched my 1 year old pup for my whilst we moved house and kept me upto date with messages and photos on how she was doing. My dog had a great time and seemed so happy in her company. I will definitely be using her services again 🐶”
“Danielle was amazing with our lovely old boy. We had an initial meet and greet, Danielle made us all welcome and put us at ease about leaving Teddy. While we were away she sent daily pup dates, videos and photos. There was a minor health issue which she contacted me about and offered a simple solution. 100% satisfied and he is booked in for another stay in October. Thank you”
“Elin is an amazing dog sitter Penny loves going and she always sends regular updates and changes her plans with dogs flexibly depending on the weather when it is too warm and goes forest walks when it is super rainy. This is the second time we have booked with Elin and would definitely book again!”
“I am so pleased we found Maddie (and her family!) and were able to leave our special boy Jax with her for his first ever dog-sitting experience outside of our family. Maddie has such an amazing set up for dog-sitting. She has a brilliant location for walks and such a warm, welcoming space in her home where the dogs are included in family life. Jax was so loved and well looked after for the duration of his stay and Maddie kept me up to date with plenty of pictures and messages about their adventures together. Jax was in completely safe hands and I had no concerns about him while we were alway. I don’t think he wanted to come home! Thank you again for everything Maddie. We will 100% be booking again and I’m sure Jax can’t wait for his next holiday with you all 💛 I’m forever grateful we found you xxx”
“Harry did an excellent job of looking after our elderly cocker spaniel while we were away. We got lots of updates and photos and Harry even took her to the vets for a suspected tic. I’d definitely recommend Harry, especially for an older dog.”
“Absolutely fantastic boarder. Could not recommend Kirsty enough, nothing was a hassle and Peanut had the best time. Lots of pictures and updates ! He looked like he had the best time and I will absolutely use Kirsty in the future. Think Peanut enjoyed his holiday more than i did !! Thanks you Kirsty.”
“Koko and his family were absolutely amazing with my Lab, Benny! From the start, Koko was very communitive while setting up the booking. Dropping off I felt like Benny was in really safe hands. Koko kept me updated multiple times a day with messages and photos, which made such a difference and gave me total peace of mind. Benny loved playing with their daughter, and in pics its obvious he loved the entire family as he was smiling in almost every picture. They had a lovely garden Benny was able to run and play ball in. Benny was happy and relaxed when time for pickup and napped several times that day as he had enjoyed their company so much! If you're thinking about booking with Kwok, just do it! Highly recommended!”
About: Work until 2:30pm locally, available outwith these hours. ❤️ Have grown up surrounded by animals, hamsters, rabbits, cats & dogs. Recently welcomed a springer spaniel to our household who we have been working hard to train. Please note any dog that comes to stay with us must be dog friendly due to already having a dog in the house. Love the outdoors and wandering round the parks/beaches and woodland areas that Inverclyde has to offer. Dote on animals and enjoy spending time in their company. Treat all pets as though they are my own. I will care for your pet in their own home by ensuring they feel safe, comfortable and loved whilst sticking to their normal routine. I follow all instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks or playtime to ensure that your pet remains happy and stress free. I also provide plenty of affection, attention and updates so that you know your pet is in safe hands.

About: I’ve always been a big dog person and have spent lots of time looking after my friends’ Cocker Spaniels, Ralph and Rue. I’d have them stay with me for days or sometimes weeks, so I’m very used to the walks, feeding, keeping them entertained and generally having a dog follow me around everywhere! I absolutely loved having them around and still miss them, so I’d be very happy to get my dog fix by looking after some new four-legged friends. I work from home most of the time, except from a Wednesday when I go into the office. I live alone and my job involves a lot of writing so would welcome the company from a cute doggo I have a nice garden space for dogs to enjoy, and I love getting out for little walks and adventures, so there’ll be plenty of fresh air and things to sniff! your pup will have my full attention and won’t have to worry about children or a busy household. I’m happy to work around their usual routine, whether that’s lots of walks and playtime or plenty of sofa time and cuddles.
“I can’t thank Bethany enough for taking our fur baby. We were worried about how Minnie would be going somewhere she didn’t know. But Bethany was amazing and Minnie had the best time. We were updated regularly with photos and videos. Thank you so much.”
“Emma & Sandy looked after Willow for 2 nights whilst we were visiting the area for a wedding. We couldn’t have asked for better care, Willow was treated like their own dog, it was like home from home. We received regular updates and photos and it was obvious Willow was very happy. We would definitely recommend.”

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 694 sitters in Bute, 67% 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.

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.
