About: I have a 9 year old black Labrador who is the family pet and have been helping my mum with doggy day care and dog boarding for over 2 years now. We’ve looked after dogs all shapes and sizes over the years ranging from puppies to mastiffs. The dogs tend to use me for my bed and cuddles! I’m currently looking for a full time remote/hybrid job after travelling for 6 months so will have plenty of time for your pups. I’m available for dog sitting and walking every day of the week at the moment. I’m very used to looking after dogs with different needs in our house and can easily accommodate for your dogs needs in the comfort of their own home.
About: Hi, I’m Annie 🐾🌲 I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mum to Winnie, my intelligent and loving Shihpoo. I provide small, home-from-home dog care with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time, so every dog gets genuine attention, patience and care. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I am licensed by Charnwood Council with a Higher Standards license, and am fully insured too. I’ve looked after dogs before and have experience with a special needs dog who had severe anxiety, separation issues and ongoing medical needs. This taught me the importance of understanding each dog as an individual, keeping routines consistent and creating a calm environment where dogs feel safe. I work from home, meaning your pup will have company, attention and care throughout the day. We have a secure fenced garden and live close to beautiful fields, perfect for relaxed walks and plenty of sniffing adventures 🌿 Winnie loves meeting new friends, but I always put each dog’s personality and comfort first. Whether your dog loves exploring, relaxing or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. My aim is simple: to give every dog the same love, patience and care I would want for Winnie. 🛡️ Higher Standards Licensed 🏡 Home-from-home care 🐾 Maximum 3 guest dogs 🌲 Calm, personal care I work from home, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My day revolves around making sure pups feel happy, comfortable, and loved. We start the morning with a lovely walk first thing, giving them time to explore, stretch their legs, and enjoy a good sniffari. After we come home, it’s breakfast time followed by cuddles, relaxation, and plenty of companionship while I work from home. Throughout the day, I’m around for attention, reassurance, and little breaks when needed. In the evening, we enjoy dinner and a gentle stroll to stretch our paws before settling down for cosy bedtime snuggles. I love creating a calm, home-from-home environment where dogs can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home-from-home environment for every pup in my care. I live in a lovely quiet area with a secure fenced garden, giving dogs space to relax, play, and enjoy some fresh air safely. We are surrounded by great walking spots, including fields perfect for exploring and enjoying a good sniffari. I always take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel comfortable and settled. Winnie is a friendly, sociable Shihpoo who loves meeting other pups, and we do have some friendly pup pals who may say hello along the way. However, I always prioritise each dog’s comfort and make sure introductions are calm and appropriate. My aim is to make every dog feel like part of the family while they’re with us — safe, happy, and very well cared for.
“Kasper came back from his day with Deborah very happy after a lovely day; I think he’ll sleep well tonight! Would happily recommend Deborah and will definitely book again. Very happy - thank you”
About: We’ve been born into family that have always had dogs and due to work commitments we are not in a position to have our own right now. That said, we are excited to find this app and be able to host a dog into our living home when available. Hard floors in our home, a secured garden, and time morning and evening to walk your dog through the surrounding fields around our villages. If your dog travels well in a car, we will take it in a longer walk in interesting places. We are both self employed and have flexible work pattern both from home and in the work place if required. We have no children and are excited to be spending time with your dog. We have fenced and secured garden and lovely countryside walks around our village. We love finding out new places to walk and with lots of space for the dogs to play with us.
About: What sets me apart is my real, hands-on experience managing many dogs at once. I own four dogs and have cared for twelve family dogs, so I’m confident with different personalities, routines, puppies, and senior dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. Back home, I handle my own dogs with feeding, walks, routines, and providing constant love and attention. I’m an MBA student at Loughborough with a flexible schedule and lots of free time between classes. I really miss my own dogs, so being around pets fits naturally into my day, and I can give them plenty of attention, walks, and care I provide a safe, trusting environment for your dog in your home. I can follow your routines closely and give plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. If needed, I can also crate your dog comfortably. My experience with my own dogs and family dogs ensures your fur baby will feel happy and secure while you’re away.
“First time day care for Adora & i was nervous due to that, but Adora was happy & I was reassured by updates & photos during the day. I will be definitely booking Jessica again. Thank you Jessica 😊”
“Shivani and Shanti were lovely looking after our dog Arlo for couple of hours. Super helpful with sending updates and pictures and were very friendly and accommodating. If we are ever in the area again would definitely leave our pup in their care. Thank you so much for everything! :)”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was a teenager, regularly walking and helping to care for my family dog from the age of 14. Since then I've had plenty of hands-on experience with dogs of different ages, personalities and energy levels. I now have my own young dog, so I'm very familiar with puppy and adolescent energy, training, enrichment and keeping curious dogs entertained! I absolutely love spending time with dogs and I'm happy to follow their individual routines around feeding, walks, play and downtime to help them feel comfortable and at home. I work from home full-time, so I'm around throughout the day to provide plenty of company, attention and toilet breaks. I already structure my day around my own dog's routine, including regular walks, playtime and enrichment. I'm available for boarding, daycare, walks and drop-in visits throughout the week, with availability shown on my calendar. I have a fenced garden and a friendly young dog who loves the company of other dogs. I only accept one household's pets at a time, so your dog will get plenty of individual attention. We're also just a minutes' walk from a grassy park, perfect for daily fetch. I have multiple rooms available, so dogs can have their own space when needed, and I'm happy to follow their usual routine around feeding, walks, sleeping and crate use.
“Ivana and her husband are so friendly and welcoming. Their home is beautiful with a gorgeous garden. Buddy enjoyed his visit today and is looking forward to future stop overs 🥰”
“Bron has tried 3 different daycares and all said he was stressed / panting / crying etc. He absolutely LOVED it at Liga’s house and has had the best day playing with Indy and Marley! Liga kept me updated with photos, videos and texts. Very much looking forward to booking him back in for another day of fun!! 🖤”
“Elizabeth and her lovely family looked after biscuit with great care and gave her heaps of attention, they treated her like their own dog and biscuit loved being around the two girls. I was updated with photos and little stories of what they got up to whilst I was away for work and they made us smile as she clearly looked entertained, was having zoomies and playing with the children and getting lots of cuddles and attention. It made us quite jealous :) My husband found the location easy for work to drop her off on the way and made life easier for him knowing she was cared for extremely well. We will be using Elizabeth and her family again! Thank you for what you did for Biscuit, she came home tired and slept all afternoon and hardly moved :)”
About: I have been around dogs and family pets for a long time and have a deep love for all animals. I also own a daschund who is anxious so I understand patience and how to care for smaller dogs. I currently work full time from home on the weekdays, so your dog will have plenty of attention from me! My partner is also around to help out on the weekends. I have a fenced garden and live close to fields for dog walks. Winnie loves being around other dogs but she is initally reactive due to her nature (sausage dog problems 😂), it would be great to meet beforehand to get the dogs to meet. I am happy to meet free of charge to see how they get on, I think it's important that you feel your dog is in safe hands before leaving with me.
About: My work experience is varied from small to large animals on farms, veterinary surgery livery yards and private houses, of all sizes. Loved by all I currently have no responsibility’s other than taking on other peoples pets to care for in their own home environment. There are no limits to distance or days I am free to stay as long or as short a time is required I have looked after animals in lots of various settings including very grand houses with lots of land and various types at any one time. Very confident in all environments
About: I have been around animals since childhood. My family has a dog called Miki who is now 13 years old. I also have two cats of my own: Vivi, who is 3 years old, and Milka, who is 16. I rescued Milka and took care of her for 2 years before she stayed with my family in Ukraine. Growing up, I also cared for a parrot, a rat, and two guinea pigs. I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them. I trained our family dog basic commands such as sit, lie down, stay close, give paw, voice, and roll over. I am patient, caring, and treat every pet as if it were my own. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for pet care. I recently moved to England and can fully focus on your cat’s routine, comfort, and daily needs. I live in a calm home with no pets at the moment, which suits many animals. I carefully follow all instructions and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Abbie looked after our dog, Ralphie, for the day, and he had the absolute best time! He settled in straight away because Abbie made him feel right at home from the moment we arrived. She was fantastic to deal with, and Ralphie clearly loved every minute of his stay. I cannot recommend Abbie highly enough, and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Steven really cares for your dog. He takes time out to get to know them and does what he can to make them feel at home. Laszlo is super friendly too! My dog Sam was very happy to stay with Steven and family.”
“Jade has looked after my dog before and she always leaves so happy and very tired out. Really great communication and pick up/drop off are super easy. Would 100% recommend and will use again!”

There are 1,141 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Charnwood. About 86% of Charnwood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you are planning ahead for public holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day cover for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later collection to match your Charnwood commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust collection and drop-off times when needed.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's lead and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalised care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
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 Midlands 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.
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.
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 .
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English, French, German, and Spanish from Mon-Sat 9am to 6pm. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a qualified vet or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s booking protection means Rover Support will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
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.
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 .
