“This is the first time stay for our doggies with Elina, they have had the most amazing time staying with her and her beautiful family. Home from home care, we were nervous due to having a 21 week old puppy, but no need. Molly loved her walks and play time with Simba, and Murphy had continuous ball time. Doggies cannot wait for their next sleep over in May xx”
“Rhian is really a star. She made me feel so comfortable with leaving my puppy with her and you can tell how much she loves and cares for each dog she looks after. I received constant updates and he was the happiest boy ever - don’t think he wanted to come home. Honestly couldn’t recommend a better person to look after your pooches. Amazing from beginning to end.”
“This isn’t the first time our dog has stayed overnight here. Roo enjoyed her stay with Celine and her family who were so patient with her ball obsession 😁 Clearly she had a great time The photo updates were great .. we could clearly see she was at home there”
“Brilliant care for my little Pixie, not sure if she wanted to go back home ? Emma was great, sending me updates every day with some pictures and videos of Pixie. I couldn't ask for more. I am very happy and already booked next week of care for my doggy in July with Emma. Thank you for everything and see you soon xx”
About: For as long as I can remember, dogs have been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for all sorts — from playful puppies finding their paws to gentle seniors who just want a quiet cuddle. I’ve had the joy of looking after everything from tiny Brussels Griffons to giant English Mastiffs, each with their own quirks and charm. Much of my time has been spent managing small groups of dogs, whether out exploring open fields or in safe, enclosed spaces. I’ve learnt how to keep even the most energetic breeds — like Labradors, Border Collies, and Cocker Spaniels — happy, calm, and well-exercised. Above all, I take pride in creating a caring, fun, and secure environment where every dog feels at home. Running my own business gives me a lot of flexibility, which means I can easily fit pet care into my week. I’m generally available Monday to Friday, with plenty of time for everything from a quick midday walk to a longer afternoon play session or even an overnight stay. Because my schedule’s my own, I can adapt to what works best for you and your pet — keeping things simple, reliable, and stress-free for everyone. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing always come first. I follow all the recommended animal welfare guidelines and take extra care to make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure from day one. Before any booking, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet to get to know your pet — their personality, temperament, and what helps them feel at ease. Home Care: When looking after pets in their own homes, I make sure their usual routine is kept as normal as possible. I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before letting any dogs out, keeping their environment calm and familiar. Dog Walking: I plan walks carefully, matching dogs with similar temperaments, sizes, and energy levels. I never overcrowd groups — it’s all about balance and safety. For transport, I use a secure, well-ventilated crate system in my van so every dog travels comfortably and safely. My goal is simple: to build trust with every pet I care for and give owners complete peace of mind knowing their furry friends are in safe, experienced hands.
“Paulene and her dog Bertie made Milo welcome in their home. It was Milo's first time away from home and Paulene updated us with a photo and said Milo had settled well. Milo enjoyed his stay and we will be booking with Paulene again.”
“Sinead and her family are lovely. They sent lots of updates and took great care of our spaniel, including lots of walks on frosty and snowy mornings. Tilly came home a happy girl”
“If I could give Emily more than 5 stars, I absolutely would ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She lovingly cared for our Jack, while we were on holiday and I honestly don’t think he wanted to come home! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease — and that feeling only grew while we were away. Emily included Jack in everything she did, treated him like one of her own, and made sure he felt totally “at home.” We received the loveliest photo and message updates, which made such a difference and let us properly relax knowing he was happy and settled. We came back to a very content, well-cared-for little dog. I would recommend Emily to anyone looking for kind, reliable, home-from-home care for their pet. We’ll 100% be booking with her again!”
“More than happy with Vivien. She looked after the boys well and sent us updates and photos. The dogs were instantly comfortable with her and have returned happy and content. Would definitely use again.”
“Diesel had a fabulous time and was soo well taken care of, I received pup dates with photos and videos, This was my first time going away and leaving him in a family home , I couldn’t recommend Artur and Wioleta highly enough and anytime I go away now I will definitely be leaving Diesel with them, A massive Thank you to both of you xx”
“Rufus had a lovely time and Pauline looked after him with great care in the current heatwave, making sure he was drinking regularly, keeping him cool and only attempting short walks at cooler times of day. It had been a little while since he last stayed, but we could tell he was excited to see her when we arrived. As usual, we had great communication from Pauline and updates as to how Rufus was getting on. And she had remembered all his details, funny habits and requirements! Pauline’s home is set up perfectly to look after dogs and we feel very confident about leaving Rufus in her care. He was treated like one of the family. Thank you Pauline.”
“Paige has looked after my dog for a week and I cannot recommend her enough! Winter was really happy and got her exercise and loads of attention and love while staying with Paige. We had daily updates with photos and videos and we were rest assured the whole time that our dog is having a great time. Will be booking more stays in the future. :)”
“Colin had a great time. It was the first visit to a new minder and Annchalee and Will were lovely. We received picture updates with messages to let us know how Colin was and we could not have asked for a better experience for him. Thank you both.”
“A big thank you to Bree, Henry and family for looking after Frieda so well. They kept us up-to-date with how well she was settling in with pictures and videos and we were pleased to see that she was clearly comfortable. A top class service we will happily use them again and recommend to others. Many thanks, Rich and Amanda.”
“Samantha and her family were amazing! Great communication throughout organising the pet sitting and while our sausage dog Rupert was staying with them. We received daily photos and updates of how Rupert was getting on. We got lots of photos of Rupert hanging out with the family and he got to play with their dog Roxy. I can’t fault Samantha at all. Highly recommend Samantha and her family :)”
“Sarah was amazing with our nervous dog, Boo. She doesn’t normally warm to strangers very fast, but with Sarah, Boo took to her instantly. You could tell Sarah was patient and had a calming energy about her, which Boo really responded to. During the week-long stay, we received regular updates, and at no point were we worried about Boo. We knew she was well looked after. We will definitely be trusting Sarah with our Boo again. Usually, we worry about leaving her behind when we go away, so it’s lovely to find someone we know Boo is happy with. We honestly can’t recommend Sarah enough!”
“Sinem was amazing! I’m an apprehensive dog mom and she made me feel so at ease. She sent us daily pictures and even a picture shortly after we dropped her off which made us feel much more comfortable. She told us how our dog Sorpresa was acting so we knew she was happy. Sinem has great energy and you can tell she loves dogs 😍. She did all of the extra things we asked for our dog and gave her the medication she’s on each morning, she even got our old dog to play with toys more! Barney was a gentleman and shared his space with her and they bonded more than we thought! Lots of pictures of them cuddling and sitting together. We can’t recommend Sinem enough, we will definitely be bringing Sorpresa back in the future!”

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 North West 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 .
