About: Hello! Unlike some other sitters on Rover, i have a year of dog sitting experience and work experience in a kennels, cattery, riding school and small animal vet clinic. I have been caring for dogs ever since 2012 when i was around seven years old and have also had some experience with rabbits and birds around the age of 4 years old. During my work experience, i have learnt how to analyse basic animal behaviour well and have learnt how to follow a schedule of feeding times, medicine that need to be administered and how to meet the needs of both dogs and cats. I’ve helped with grooming and bathing at the kennels and i am patient at all times, giving space to animals when they need it. I am the type of pet sitter to give some advice to owners if i feel it may benefit the owners and the pet. For example, if i see your dog eats too quickly, i might recommend a slow feeding bowl to reduce chances of things such as GDV happening to your dog. I have helped two owners during my time as a pet sitter as i have noticed medical issues in their dogs such as signs of a urinary infection or epulis. If you do not want advice, please let me know beforehand as i do not tolerate rude behaviour. Im currently available at all times so whatever type of schedule you would like for your pet, i can work around. When a dog is in my own home and is sleeping over, i sleep nearby to make sure that they are comfortable and safe as that is my first priority. I give every dog at least one walk a day (or more if you would like) In my own home, i have an attached house which is kept clean at all times and it has a back garden with tall fences and no grass. Its a relatively big garden with lots of plants and vegetables around. I do have a dog of my own in the house who’s an eight year old Sproodle who is playful but is no threat to other dogs as she loves to greet them no matter the age. She is gentle with puppies and sleeps in her own bed in the kitchen. In my house, i live with two sisters and my mother. No matter the house im caring for your pet in, i will stick to a schedule and your rules however you prefer. I will make sure your pet is entertained and cared for well and will return home happy!
“Lucca had a lovely day with Michelle, it was the first time we have left her with anyone Michelle sent photos and Lucca looked very relaxed, she had cuddles and walks, and came home very happy.”
“Absolutely fantastic dog sitter 10 out of 10 recommend she has a lovely connection with dogs and looks after them like their her own. She is very understanding to Diego that can be a strong boy at times. Such a wonderful dog sitter and kind person would recommend.”
“Charlotte and George took such good care of our dog today - she was clearly happy and comfortable (and managed to find all the tennis balls!). We’ll definitely use them again. ?”
“My dog was very happy and well looked after with Karen who treated her as her own. She sent me a video of Cleo and she had toys and I could tell she had a great time when I went to pick her up. I will definitely be booking her again x”
“Sarah is absolutely lovely! It was both mine and my dog’s first time doing this and she was so accommodating and reassuring. Extremely helpful and within just one day, Daisy was excited to see her again! Will definitely be booking Sarah and her lovely home again. Thank you!”

“Ryan communicated brilliantly throughout the day and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which was really reassuring. He even walked my very energetic puppy twice! Ralph seemed so happy and clearly loved having a new friend. I’m really pleased and would happily book again. 🐶😊”
About: During the last 10 years I have boarded 100s of doggos in my own home. I now want a change of scenery and daily routine. I have been looking after doggos for the past 10 years and this is my full time occupation. I would now love to travel to different parts of the UK that I have not yet seen. I think it's time for a change apart from being in my own home 24/7! If the garden is not escape proof, like my own, I would be very vigilant all the time as I do not like the pets to be out of my sight for very long. Also, it rather depends on the particular dogs I would be looking after.
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and grew up with two wonderful Labrador Retrievers, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. From long walks and playtime to feeding, grooming, and plenty of attention, I’ve always enjoyed making sure they’re happy, healthy, and well looked after. I’ve also spent a lot of time at my grandmother’s farm, where she’s had Border Collies for many years, giving me experience with energetic working breeds and different dog personalities. More recently, I’ve helped a friend who works through Rover with dog sitting and walks, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs outside of my own family. I understand that every dog is unique, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll always treat your dog with the same care, patience, and affection I’d give my own, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in safe hands. After recently returning from a 7-month trip around South America, I now have plenty of time available to dedicate to caring for dogs and cats. While I look for my next career opportunity, I have a flexible schedule and can offer plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the week. I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits, with flexibility to fit around each pet’s individual routine.

I’m available for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits, with flexibility to fit around each pet’s individual routine. I live in a welcoming home with a spacious, secure garden and fantastic walking routes right on our doorstep, including riverside paths that are perfect for dogs. Having grown up with Labradors, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much joy and companionship pets bring into a home, and I’d love the opportunity to provide that same care and attention to other people’s pets. I will always follow your instructions closely, respect your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel relaxed, happy, and at home.
“Emily took great care of my small puppy Daisy! Perfect home for daycare with space to run around in the secure garden. Emily's own dogs were lovely with Daisy and Emily took time to understand Daisys needs and daily routine. Clearly a household that love dogs. Thank you Emily and see you again soon.”
“Aaliyah looked after our miniature dachshund, Chorizo, for day care for the first time in preparation for a longer stay we have booked. She was very communicative beforehand and took on board my concerns (he has had IVDD so needs some extra care). She sent me several updates with pictures throughout the day and I could see how happy and settled Chorizo was in her home. He was happy to see us when we arrived to pick him up - but he didn't want to leave Aaliyah and her partner!! We are feeling very reassured ahead of him staying with her in July as we know he will be happy to go back and will be very well looked after.”
“Daisy seemed very happy for her day at Joyce's, they had a lovely walk in the woods (nice n cool) we will definitely be back, it's a lovely home and Lilly is so playful and friendly 😊”
About: I have had pets most of my life and enjoy the time with them. I'm retired so have the time to spoil your pet while you enjoy knowing they are well looked after. Im retired and have quite a bit of spare time on my hands. I love having a chat with a dog while walking, its wonderful. My own cats are indoors only as I prefer the safety of this. I cannot have pets boarding at my home due to my own fur babies x
“Millie was very relaxed and happy spending the day with Jo and Peach and we had complete confidence that Millie was well looked after as though she was part of the family. She had a lovely walk and play time. Would highly recommend Mary Puppins and the woof pack and we will definitely be booking again! Ian, Vicky & Millie the dog ?”

Our dog Dougie loved Courtney. She welcomed him and walked him and gave him lots of cuddles. He’s still settling in with us as his forever family having had an unsettled few months and it was important he felt really at home. Courtney was fantastic, reassuring and sent us lots of photos and videos. Thank you so much Courtney 🥰
Meg stayed with Alexandra this week for the first time and took to her immediately. We felt very at ease and comfortable with the care that she provided . We would have no hesitation in recommending Alexandra to look after anyone's dog. We have already made a repeat booking for Meg for day care again next week.
Ryan communicated brilliantly throughout the day and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which was really reassuring. He even walked my very energetic puppy twice! Ralph seemed so happy and clearly loved having a new friend. I’m really pleased and would happily book again. 🐶😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Chorley on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,455 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Chorley. About 87% of Chorley 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 Chorley 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 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.
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 .
