About: I have taken care of every dog of every age since I was in my teens. I have trained my dogs and have lots of availability around my work to take great care of your furbabies I am currently working part time so I have plenty of availability to look after your pooches in the week and weekend. My husband is a sitter with me, so we can offer lots of flexibility around our work. We both love to play and walk with the pooches and there are plenty around here. Lots of playtime in our garden, that has plenty of shade in the summer too. I have a fenced garden and a very friendly cavapoo called Bertie for your fur baby to play with. I have lots of walks around here. If overnight boarding i can offer a bed and a crate (if size is suitable). They will be fussed, well cared for and treated as part of the family
“First time leaving Ted with Scott, and it all was perfect. It was a long day and Ted had three super walks. Scott has a secret way with dogs and Ted just eased right into his care. A lovely house and base. Scott sent little updates and photos which were really appreciated. 100% trusted and recommended. I could not have asked for more and Ted came home settled and chilled, which is unusual! Thanks so much Scott”
“Buddy really enjoyed his day with you. He can be a nervous boy and you really helped to reassure me that he was okay and had settled in well. It was a lovely touch to receive such lovely photos throughout the day. Thank you and Buddy would love to come back soon!”
“Lily and Frida made themselves at home judging by the photos Jake sent! They had a lovely walk and seemed very happy when I collected them. Jake and his partner are attentive doggie carers and I have no hesitation in leaving the girls in their care.”
About: I've always been trusted to care for family pets, whether for overnight stays or daily walks, and I've loved every minute of it. I've also looked after pets for neighbours and family friends, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I love attending training classes with my own dog, Bruce, and have picked up a few fun tricks and training techniques along the way that I can practise with your pup too! I’m currently back from university over the summer and only working part time so i have plenty of time to look after and play with any dogs! My schedule is very flexible to fit your needs. I have a fenced garden and a very energetic dog, Bruce, who will love the company. I am very attentive and will make sure your dog has everything they need

About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old university student home for the holidays and looking to earn some extra money doing something I genuinely love – caring for animals. I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and currently have a dog, two tortoises, and a much-loved cat who has been part of my family for 16 years and still sleeps on my bed every night without fail! I’m reliable, caring, and understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, walks, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. I am currently not working as i’m home from exeter university for summer. I am home everyday and able to attend to all your pets needs. I have a drivers license and so can walk your dog on the beach, the woods or just around fields nearby depending on its needs. I have a fenced garden aswell as 1 small friendly dog who gets along with everyone and everything. I also have 2 tortoises who are kept in a cage
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10 – from energetic puppies to calm seniors. Neighbours, friends, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets when they’re away, and I’ve loved every minute of it! What sets me apart is my small-scale approach: I only ever take one (or max two friendly) dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention, plenty of play in a secure garden, cosy home comforts, regular walks, and lots of cuddles. I’ll send daily photos and updates to keep you smiling while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible and treat every dog like my own. Let’s do a free meet-and-greet so we all feel comfy – I can’t wait to meet your four-legged friend! 🐶 I’m working part-time from home, so I’m available all day on weekdays (from the morning onward) and fully flexible on weekends for boarding, day care, walks, and playtime. This means I can give your pup constant attention, regular outings, and plenty of cuddles without any rush – perfect for relaxed, personalised care. Whether it’s an early drop-off or a full day at home, I’m here and ready! Just let me know what works best for you and your dog 🐶 care for dogs in my cosy, secure home in Emsworth – a quiet, fenced garden for safe play and exercise, plus comfy indoor spaces with beds, toys, and plenty of room to relax. I keep numbers small (usually one dog at a time, max two friendly ones) so everyone gets individual attention and no overcrowding. Safety is top priority: fully vaccinated dogs only, secure gates/doors, no toxic plants/foods around, and I supervise closely (especially with my work-from-home setup). I do free meet-and-greets first to check compatibility, ask about routines/behaviors, and build trust. Daily photo updates keep owners in the loop – your pup will feel right at home! 😊
“I'm so glad that I found Jess. My Lucy was so happy after day with her and her two lovely dogs Lola and Daisy. Jess regularly informed me about Lucy and sent photos of her. Absolutely will recommend Jessica and for sure use her help again.”
About: Hey! I’m Anna, I’m 32 I’m a nurse so sadly have never been able to get a dog due to my schedule but I loveeeeeeee them. I have used borrow my doggy for about 2 years and I have looked after a range of dogs..I absolutely adore them and often steal my friends dogs. I love going for long walks, runs, playing and even just chilling and cuddling with them. I’m super sociable and interactive with the dogs and offer stable and reliable support if required while your away I have Wednesdays and weekends off.

In my home, i offer a safe space free from other pets or children
About: I’ve been around dogs since before I could walk, growing up in a family filled with furry friends. I trained my own cocker spaniel from puppyhood, mastering everything from basic commands to good behaviour. Over the years, family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets, giving me hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. My deep love for animals, combined with my practical experience, ensures your pet will be in great hands. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine since I work from home, allowing me to give your pets constant attention and care. My own cocker spaniel requires at least an hour of exercise daily, so we embark on plenty of walks and outdoor adventures. Your pets will join us on these outings, ensuring they get the exercise and stimulation they need while enjoying a loving, active environment. In my home, your pets will enjoy a safe and welcoming environment. I have a walled back garden where they can roam freely, and I keep the back doors open so they always have access to the garden and the downstairs area. My own dog is crate trained, so I'm comfortable accommodating both crate-trained and non-crate-trained dogs. Your pets will be treated like family, with plenty of space to explore, relax, and feel secure.
About: I’ve had dogs since the day I was born from labradors to mix rescues such as pincher/chihuahua/pug mix and pitbull/boxer mix. I’ve taken care of family pets, friends pets and so a range of different breeds and volunteered dog walking through out my school years. I love dogs of any kind and would the opportunity to care for yours when aren’t able to give 100% of your time to your furry friends. I work from home during the week - not too busy so can take for multiple toilet breaks on outside walks - 3 parks very close to home - can also do overnight stays I live in a flat and dogs will be allowed on every surface- constant walks - safe from harmful toxins/detergents (I myself have sensitive skin so only use non-harmful products)

Brook stepped in a very short notice to look after Nellie and treated Nellie as if she was her own dog! I would highly recommend Brook and family, she sent photos of how Nellie settled in Really appreciate Brook Thank you 5 stars from me and will definitely use her again when in the area X
Rolo had a fabulous day with Ellie and her partner Lewis. He came home totally exhausted after a day of playing in the garden, going for walks and watching films. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him. I am very grateful and would recommend Ellie to anyone looking for doggy day care.
Very happy with Claire as our new Rover doggie carer. We’d been let down at last minute for dog care and very quickly managed a woof meet up.. all went very well so Claire kindly covered day care the very next day. All feeding/walks/treats/naps etc were catered brilliantly and photos of Tiya - our 12 year old Spaniel, along with Claire’s little dog Sully were timely zapped across to me .. Tiya seemed totally happy and at ease there. Highly recommend Claire for weekend sitting

There are 1,756 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Chichester. About 87% of Chichester 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 Chichester 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 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.
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 .
