“Pablo had such a lovely time staying overnight with Heather and her daughter. It was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so reassured and comfortable! Pablo loved playing with Heather’s dog Honey in their garden, and he came back such a happy and snoozy boy who had clearly had a fab time. We received regular updates and photos too - a perfect stay! Thanks so much Heather.”
“Santi had a lovely time . Rebecca sent loads of pictures and videos showing santi playing and interacting with her dog and family . I would definately use rebecca again if calenders work out 😊”

Bailey came home happy, relaxed and clearly well looked after. Communication was excellent, and the whole experience was smooth from drop-off to collection. I would definitely book with James again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”

About: Since I was born, cats & dogs have been apart of my family, from Ginger Toms, Maine Coons’s , Tabby’s, Moggy’s, to Tonkinese. From Beagles, Dachshund’s, German Shepherds, Collies, and Labrador’s. , I’m also a member of the Cats Protection Agency Stroud branch. My work routine is as follows: Cheltenham - Monday - Thursday 8:00am-12:00pm / Friday 12:00pm-4:00pm. My weekends are free on a regular basis. Evening drop ins work for me also. I have a big garden area and outdoor space with my ground floor apartment away from any busy roads amongst a quiet area in Cirencester.

About: I would be delighted to welcome your dog to stay in my quiet, safe home. My partner Seb and I have had Birdie, our rescue greyhound, for 2 years. Before adopting Birdie, I grew up with a dog and I've volunteered with dog-walking charities over the years and walked dogs and done catsitting for friends and relatives. When Birdie joined the household, I had to help her adjust to her new surroundings and life as a family pet. With time and patience, she's settled in wonderfully. Birdie loves the company of other hounds and I'm hoping to welcome some new visitors into our pack. Meet-and-greets / trial visits welcome. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions! I work from home so there is usually always someone around during the work day. (I am out on Tuesdays so not currently taking Tues bookings). I tend to walk first thing, before the working day, and again after work. There are playing fields, open countryside and neighbourhood footpaths in the local area, and I can tailor walks to your dog's preferences and needs. Enclosed back garden for toilet opportunities through the day. I have an enclosed back garden (6-foot fences). Caring for an ex-racing greyhound, I'm well versed in ensuring that the home environment is safe, secure and peaceful. Meet-and-greets / trial visits welcome, and if you have any specific questions/requirements please don't hesitate to get in touch.
“Annie & Mitch were amazing sitters. They looked after out our husky for a night in the heatwave and were kind and thoughtful planning earlier and later walks and lots of frozen treat enrichment. We had lovely pup dates and photos. We’d highly recommend them thank you 🐺💖”
“So kind and accomodating, we had a delayed flight and they made us immediately at ease and like it was no hassle either way. Really excellent communication, and really quick to reply, arranged a meet up prior just to confirm and make sure all was okay with the dogs getting on. Just thank you in ensuring Cooper was well looked after. He seems to have made new buddies and enjoyed his stay!”
“Lexi enjoyed her stay with Susana and family (and new buddy Rocky), she arrived home happy and tired. We really appreciated being sent the updates and videos, thank you. Will definitely book again the next time Lexi needs a place to stay.”
“Bethan and her husband have been absolutely fantastic with our dog. They helped out last minute when we were let down for someone to have our dog for our wedding. We were worried as our dog is quite nervous but he settled straight away and they sent videos & photos that were really reassuring during Rio’s stay! Would highly recommend and definitely trust them with my dog again”

Kirsti had Loki overnight and I was confident before dropping him off that he was in the best hands. From the video meet beforehand to handover of Loki, I knew not only was he going to be safe and well looked after, he would be comfortable there too. Kirsti and Bentley welcomed Loki with open arms, he had long walks in the vast countryside around the house, and playtime of which I was kept up to date throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Kirsti, and Loki will be back soon I'm sure.
Kirsti looked after Archie for 3 weeks in October whilst we were on holiday. Having had surgery recently Archie needed special care and attention all of which Kirsti did including keeping up his physio exercises and taking him for hydro therapy appointments as well as lots of interesting walks with her own dog. We feel very lucky to have found Kirsti and would definitely use her again if the opportunity arose.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cotswold on Rover is £40.25 per night (as of August 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 780 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cotswold. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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 .
