“Katherine and her family took amazing care of our Cocker Spaniel for three weeks. He received excellent care, love and attention, especially the 6 mile walk every morning! Katherine sent us photos & videos of his adventures and he clearly enjoyed his time in Bognor Regis. I fully recommend Katherine & her family to look after your dog, if you are looking for a very devoted & loving family who allow dogs to share their home! I would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you Katherine for your outstanding care of Hugo, you were amazing!”
“Ellie was fantastic to deal with - we were visiting the area for a wedding and had some commitments to work around, but Ellie was really flexible. She also sent through updates and photos during Bonnie's stay which was appreciated! Bonnie seemed to have lots of fun with Ellie and her family. Thanks for all your help!”
“Amanda was absolutely fantastic with my dog. She provided lovely early and late walks, as well as plenty of garden space for him to enjoy. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my dog was in safe and caring hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes their wellbeing seriously. I would highly recommend Amanda and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
About: I’ve always had a dog in the family and enjoy spending my time with dogs, whether that be walks or general care. Always up for a good adventure. I currently work Monday to Friday so would be more available for weekend work than in the week, but can make some adjustments for potential evening walks etc. I have a fenced garden so plenty of space for a dog to enjoy even after a good walk. I also have the space to crate a dog too.
“Having found Sarah on Dog buddy we had a trial night sleepover and this went very well. It’s always daunting leaving your fur baby with strangers but Sarah was amazing and very welcoming and i was kept updated with lovely picture posts on the whole stay. All of our dogs needs were taken care of and I have one happy hound returning home, he had a wonderful stay. Thanks to Sarah x”
“Thank you Harriet! We're go grateful you were available on short notice. You communicated well with us and we came home to a loving and happy pup! We appreciate you taking care of our fur baby :-)”
“I highly recommend Charlotte, she sat with our precious dog Teddy in our home for the weekend. Teddy adored her and we felt very relaxed leaving Teddy and our home, in her very capable hands. When we returned we had a very tidy house and a very happy dog. Teddy has a complicated feeding and medication regime, but Charlotte was not phased at all . Thank you Charley, Teddy is looking forward to the next dogsit with you!”
About: Wagworth's Dog Care: I am dog mad, having loved them since I was little. I specialise in looking after puppies and elderly dogs who often need a bit more care and attention, and treating them like one of my family. I have owned several dogs myself and I currently have 2 very friendly dogs - a 4 year old Border Terrier / Poodle mix, Bertie, and a 1 year old Jack Russel Terrier, Bailey. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting yours! I work from home so can accommodate walks and dog sitting flexibly. I spend most of my weekends with my dogs out on long walks along the coast or on the Downs. I have a fenced garden and my own dogs to keep yours company. I have a car and it is a short distance from my house to great walks along the beach or in fields.
“I couldn’t have found such a caring reliable person to look after my 15 week old Mabel. I trusted her straight away as she is a genuine dog lover. Whilst I was away Siân sent regular daily updates with photos. Mabel settled in really well and I have hopefully found a new BFF for Mabel for life! It made me feel so much better leaving her knowing she was so well looked after and loved. A great big thank you xx”
About: Not only have I taken care of my own pets since I was a child, for over the past year I have dog sat for many friends and family. I am a recent philosophy graduate with lots of time to care for my own pets. This means I have a lot of spare time, and I what’s better than spending that time taking care of others’ animals? To look after dogs, I had a gated garden and a gate at the bottom of the stairs. My rabbits had a large enclosure, the same with my chickens. Further, my cats are both outdoor.
About: I’ve taken care of family & friends dogs/cat for many years now and have grown up with them all my life! I’m lucky enough to also help out and work at dog events such as Goodwoof & Dogstival. This included walking, feeding and assisting all the owners and dogs needs throughout the whole day. I currently have a rescue dog myself from Crete and I have dedicated my time and effort helping with her anxiety towards other dogs, walks and loud noises. As well as training her some new tips and tricks, so I understand the importance of ensuring a dog feels comfortable especially in their own home. I work Monday - Friday but work one day at home (of my choice) so I am available at 5pm onwards and I am available to stay overs or walks. I am free all weekend nights and days for stay overs or walks. I would ensure that I understand all the animals needs fro maybe owner before taking care of them. Knowing things that makes them less stressed, at home and some of their favourite walk areas
About: I have had multiple dogs throughout my life and support with family dog walking - experience will multiple breeds of dog, including German shepherds, beagles, spaniels and miniature poodles. I currently working full time - but enjoy getting out on dog walks, regularly. Helps keep me active. Enjoyed walking dog with my 4 year old. I have a secured garden with fencing, brick wall and a lockable gate. House is very warm, welcoming, cosy, safe and family orientated. A family full of dog lovers.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old, looking after my own pets as well as those of friends and family. I have experience with dog walking, feeding, overnight pet sitting, and providing loving, reliable care for dogs of all ages and sizes. I am comfortable caring for a wide range of breeds, from small dogs such as French Bulldogs to large breeds like Rottweilers. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while in my care. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or overnight care, you can count on me to treat them as if they were my own. I work four days a week, and on the days I work, I'm home by 5:00 pm, leaving my evenings free for dog walks, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. On my days off, I have much more flexibility and can provide daytime care as well. I'm reliable, organised, and happy to work around your pet's routine whenever possible. Your dog will have access to a secure, fenced garden to play and relax in. I also have two friendly, well-socialised dogs who love the company of other dogs and will help your furry friend feel at home. I live in a quiet urbanisation with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, away from busy main roads, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for daily walks and exercise. Your dog's safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priority.
“Lily & Frida spent 3 nights on holiday with Jake. It was during the very hot weather so he had his hands full keeping them as cool as possible. I know that he did everything that I would have done to ensure they were as comfortable as possible. They were both happy and so were we. I have no hesitation in recommending Jake.”
“Amelia took amazing care of my 7 month old puppy, who has separation anxiety. She was attentive and made sure he felt safe and comfortable in her home. I was sent regular updates throughout his stay. I couldn’t have asked for better care, and I’d highly recommend Amelia!”
“Tina was very good with Milo. He can be nervous, but he was totally at home with her, with lots of petting, toys and treats. He clearly remembered it from his Meet & Greet visit when we returned for his overnight stay and was very excited to be there again and to greet Tina. I had complete confidence in Tina being well setup and clearly capable for looking after a less confident dog. Thank you Tina, we will be back.”
“Gemma is a lovely lady, with lovely fam and lovely house. My dog is a little highly strung and getting a bit old and anxious ( Jack Russell / Terrier ) but she settled there immediately, which is the best sign. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for day care and/or overnight stays.”
About: I have always had a dog at home and I love to offer quality time and 1:1 to each furry friend. Willing to be active with them and see the happiness when I’m with them. I can provide with photos and videos while your dos is with me I will be currently on maternity leave and I have huge flexibility at the moment and I would love to keep busy while I’m free I have a flat that I can accommodate one puppy per time and I have garden around the building and I can be in a safe area

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Chichester
Harriet was brilliant and very accommodating with our dog, Robyn, who she looked after overnight during our wedding and brought her down to see us so she could be in some of our pictures which meant the world to us. Very responsive and helpful, we didn't worry about Robyn once during our big day, and it looked like Robyn enjoyed herself.

FAQs for Dog Boarding – Chichester
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Chichester on Rover is £31.64 per night (as of September 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 .

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 .
