“Avril, thank you so much for taking very good care of Rocky. He’s now fast asleep now we’re home, so he’s clearly been well looked after and walked well. As he’s worn out. Bless him. I’d definitely recommend you, and will be in touch soon. Thank you so very much. Love from Rocky and I. Xx 😁🐶🐕💐”
“Charlie stayed overnight with Katherine and I am grateful of the care he received. He was happy and relaxed when I picked him up and I know he was in good hands”
“Wendy and her husband made me feel at ease leaving my dog with someone other than family for the first time. You could see they had built a relationship up really quickly! I received photos and updates the whole time he was there. I will definitely use Wendy again. Thank you so much.”
“Zoe was fabulous with Kobi who settled very well. We were provided with loads of photos & videos. It looks like Kobi had a great break, as much as we did. We will be booking with Zoe again. A BIG Thank You from all of us”
“Catherine was absolutely marvellous, I could not have asked for anyone better to look after my dog. He was thoroughly spoilt, and I knew that at Catherine’s he was home from home. I had regular updates and would not hesitate recommending and using Catherine again. Thanks Catherine, you are amazing and helped me out no end!”
“Michael was lovely and understood the importance of sticking as closely as possible to Otto's normal routine during his stay. He sent regular photo and message updates as requested and my boy just settled straight away in his home (which is lovely and quiet). I've already rebooked several times and I'm sure Michael and my Otto will be the best of friends. Thank you Michael, the best possible alternative to kennels”
“Jordan was fantastic, I only booked the evening before and she was so accommodating and easygoing, especially as it was short notice. Doris has a wonderful time, I received regular updates which was great. I’d happily send Doris back anytime. 🩷”
“Kelly was amazing with Sophie! She made sure Sophie was happy and comfortable the whole time. I could tell Sophie was well-loved and in great hands and really treated Sophie like her own. Highly recommend Kelly — we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“We left our 7 year old Cockapoo with Leanne and David for 3 hours whilst we took the children to Alpamare water park, and he played with their dog, and we picked up a very happy dog. Can't thank you both enough and we are more than happy to fully recommend”
“Ana looked after our lively Labrador as if she were her own, thoughtful in planning and kept us up informed how she was to calm an anxious dog owner ! She had a great time and forgot who we are, she has a new family 🤣 already booked again thank you so much”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have also dog sit my grandparents elderly west highland terriers before. My parents were cat breeders so I’m very comfortable with cats and dogs. I grew up with a border collie. Other family pets included ducks, chickens, rats, birds, turtles, hamsters. Other experience includes childcare, I am a British gymnastics qualified coach who completed background checks, I’ve worked at a leisure Center and volunteered at a down syndrome sports club. I work full time in an office but am remote Mondays and Fridays, which makes thoose ideals for pet sitting! I work in my office and occasionally have meetings but this would integer minimally with my attention and I am easily accessible for the pets and keeping them within dar and eye shot ! I have a large flat which I can allow the pet to free roam with plenty of ventilation. I also leave all the doors open so the pegs can come find me st my workstation and I can keep an ear out for them! Including frequent breaks to check on their needs, water and just some attention if they wish!
“We are so lucky we found Pete, Emma and Sirius the dalmation to look after our dog Misty while we were in holiday, they are such a lovely family and they welcomed Misty into their home for a week making her part of their family. We got regular updates, messages, photos and videos which made a massive difference to our holiday actually seeing her having a fabulous holiday of her own. Everything from the first contact via Rover to the end of Misty's stay was smooth and stress free for us, Pete and Emma are such calm confident people, at our initial meeting at the park we felt very confident they were going to look after Misty as their own and that reassured us we had chosen correctly. I would not hesitate to ask the family to take care of Misty again and if I could give 10 stars in this review that still wouldn't be enough to show how highly we rate them.”
“Kathryn was a fantastic host. We had a little meet up a few weeks before she looked after Noah and she was very helpful - telling us about the area we were visiting as we are not local. On the day she looked after Noah and sent a little update with some pictures. When we picked Noah up he was very content - he'd clearly had a lovely day. Kathryn looked after Noah while we spent the day at the races. We're already planning anothe visit next year and we'll definitely call on her services again. Thank you, Kathryn”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cleveland on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 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 .
