“Max and her lovely family took our booking at short notice and our dog Chay had the best time. He came back home and was worn out from all the excitement. We will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you”
“Couldn’t recommend a better sitter! Effective communication. Kept in touch with photos and videos. Took Loki on some great walks. Will 100% be returning! Thank you for a great stay and treating him like one of your own. 😄”
“Scoobie had a fabulous time with Stacey and Paul. What a lovely couple who absolutely doted on him. We had frequent photos and updates during his time there which I loved. There was excellent communication before the booking and during for peace of mind. A very professional approach to the meet and greet to find out all necessary and comfort details for your pet. Cannot recommend their high quality of care enough ❤️”
About: I’m a very experienced and confident dog carer, particularly with small to medium-sized dogs. I have a real soft spot for little dogs and understand that they often need a bit of extra care when it comes to feeling safe, secure and comfortable in a new environment. Safety is extremely important to me. I make sure my garden is secure and I’m always very careful around doors, gates and when out on walks, especially with smaller dogs who can be quick or nervous in unfamiliar places! I also understand how important it is to help dogs feel settled and relaxed when they’re away from their owners. I’m patient with anxious or nervous dogs and will give them the time, reassurance and space they need to feel comfortable. ☺️ I have plenty of experience with enrichment and behavioural activities from owning my own dogs in the past. I have Kongs, lick mats and other enrichment toys available, and I’m used to using food based activities, games and mental stimulation to help dogs stay occupied, relaxed and happy. I’m happy to follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, sleeping arrangements and any particular habits or activities they enjoy. My aim is to make sure every dog staying with me feels safe, calm, entertained and properly cared for, while giving their owner peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays, so I’m available to care for dogs throughout the day while I work. My job is flexible and not very demanding, so I can give them plenty of attention, take them for walks and let them outside regularly, usually every one to two hours. I’m also available for weekend boarding with a little more notice. I have my stepdaughter every other weekend, so if your dog is not comfortable around children, or you would prefer them not to be around children, please let me know when booking. For dogs I’ve looked after several times and have come to know and trust well, weekend care while she is here may be possible depending on the individual dog. My step daughter is used to dogs and is very gentle with them, but please rest assured I would never leave your dog alone with a child. I’m generally unavailable on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, although I may be able to make arrangements in special circumstances if discussed in advance. I take safety very seriously and make sure dogs are secure, comfortable and well supervised in my home. My garden is fully enclosed with a solid brick wall rather than just fencing, and I’m very careful around doors and gates, particularly with smaller dogs who can be quick or nervous. We don’t have any pets of our own, so your dog would get my full attention while they’re staying with me. I’m home throughout the day when caring for dogs, so they won’t be left alone for long periods and can be let outside regularly. I also understand that being somewhere new can be stressful, so I give dogs plenty of time to settle and follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I have Kongs, lick mats and other enrichment toys available to help keep them relaxed, occupied and mentally stimulated.
“We were really pleased with Scott looking after our staffy Reggie for our first family trip away. Scott was friendly, reliable and kept me updated with photos while I was away, which gave us peace of mind. Reggie was clearly happy and well looked after when I collected him. I’d definitely use Scott again and would recommend to other pet owners looking for reliable care. Thanks again.”
“I am really grateful to Ashley for looking after Gracie at very short notice. I was very happy at how she was looked after and I would have no hesitation in recommending Ashley. Thank you again”
“Bernie did a fantastic job of looking after Minnie. Minnie was clearly very relaxed when I came to pick her up, she was settled in on the sofa. Bernie was great to deal with, very friendly and I will definitely use her again”
“Dylan really enjoyed his stay with Magdalene over a weekend and she sent updates and photos which was lovely. He was tired and had lots of walks and playtime. I would recommend!”
“Billy had a great time with Rhiannon, he loved his stay on the farm and walks in the orchard. It was great to see pictures of his day and his time with the other dogs. He looks forward to the next stay”
“Alison and Andy took care of Ivy so well and she had the best time with them. They sent updates every morning and evening and it was obvious she already loved being with them. It was important for me to feel completely comfortable and at peace that Ivy was being well looked after and Alison and Andy are such warm and welcoming people. Ivy will definitely be back for more holidays in the future!”
About: I am a mother of 2 grown up children who always wanted and had a dog and cats. As a child I grew up with dogs, Guinea pigs, rabbits and several other domestic pets. 40 years experience of pet care which I enjoy whether they are big or small. I only need short notice to be able to support you with your furry family be it at their home or taken out for walks. If needed I can offer house sitting as part of my service, even a house clean too. I know how difficult it can be leading such busy lives and our furry family members need our love and attention everyday. If your pet needs medication I am happy to administer this as long as you have permitted me to do so. I am dedicating my time to pet care so my availability can be flexible. I usually walk my dogs very early in the morning and can be available for the rest of the day I have a secure garden and pets will have the entire run of the downstairs. They will be included in our cosy front room evenings watching the TV until it's time for bed.
About: I’ve been lucky enough to have dogs in my life for the past 20 years and have always had a huge love for them. I’ve regularly looked after friends’ and family members’ dogs, so I understand how important it is to know your beloved pet is safe, happy and well cared for when you’re not there. I’m a caring, reliable and patient person who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. I’d treat every dog as one of my own, giving them plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime and care. I also have a beautiful Golden Labrador who absolutely loves other dogs, so I think she would be delighted to have some new friends to keep her company too! Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, company or simply a loving home-from-home, I’d be more than happy to help. I work full-time as a teacher, leaving home at around 8am and arriving back home at approximately 3:30pm. However, your dog won’t be left alone all day. My husband is able to come home during his break to let the dogs outside, give them some attention and play with them for around half an hour before heading back to work. My eldest daughter is also often home before me, so there is usually someone around to provide company and reassurance. Once I’m home, your dog will be part of our family routine, with plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles and access to our secure garden. I’m also available for boarding at weekends and during school holidays, when I’m home much more and can give your dog lots of love and company throughout the day. I’ll always do my best to make their stay feel like a comfortable, happy home-from-home. I have a secure, fully fenced garden with plenty of grassy areas where your lovely dog can safely play, explore and enjoy some fresh air. I have a friendly dog of my own who love making new friends, although I will always make sure introductions are calm and appropriate. Your dog will be treated as part of the family and given lots of love, attention and care in a safe, comfortable home-from-home environment. I can also accommodate dogs who need their own space or quiet time when required.
“‘Kelly and their lovely brown cocker Nala greeted Joni warmly for her weekend stay, looked after her well, took her on long walks and river swims, but also respected her home routines. Joni seemed very happy and healthy after 4 days at the farm, playing with Nala in the wide open fields adjacent to the property, and although she was pleased to see me and come home she looked sad to leave Nala & her family. An excellent weekend doggy home and we will hopefully take Joni to stay with Kelly, Dan, Nala at their lovely open country home again!’”
About: My partner & I both come from dog loving family homes, we recently bought our own house & the only thing missing is a 4 legged friend♥️ I have experience with puppy training, large dogs & senior dogs. I am reliable and can’t wait to meet your furry friends. I currently work full-time during the week but am available for evening walkies & weekend boarding. Your pooch will have my undivided attention during the weekends for lots of walks & cuddles. I have a spacious, secure garden which allows for safe, supervised play, while a calm home environment ensures a relaxing stay—perfect for dogs who may feel anxious or overwhelmed.
About: I’m a passionate animal lover and genuinely believe that dogs deserve to feel safe, loved and completely at home while you’re away. I work from home, which means your dog will have someone around 24/7 and won’t be left alone. We have our own lovely dog, Mabel, who is friendly, gentle and very welcoming to new four-legged friends. She loves having company and is always happy to make a new friend 🐶❤️ if you live local you Bartestree then it’s likely you have already met her! I understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you completely trust, so I’ll treat them as one of my own — with plenty of cuddles, attention, playtime, walks and lots of love. Our home is relaxed and dog-friendly, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medication and any little quirks they may have. Your dog won’t just be staying with us — they’ll be part of the family while they’re here. 🐾❤️ Having had dogs for the last 20 years pet care is built into my every day life. Early morning walks in the Orchards, a lunchtime stroll around the fields and an evening sunset walk to the cricket pitch. I will offer your pets a safe space and lots of attention. We have a fully enclosed and secure garden so they can have as much outdoor time as they like. I will treat your dog as if they are one of my family. I promise to keep them safe and make sure they have a thoroughly great home from home experience.
“Stefanie took the booking last minute and was so accommodating. Coco really enjoyed her stay there and got plenty of exercise over the couple of days that she was there. Would definitely recommend!”
“Shandy, mums jack russell was well looked after by Emma. She was very prompt with pick up and drop off gave us photo updates which really put mums mind at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending Emma to look after your four legged pal. Should we need a dog sitter any time soon then Emma will be at top of the list!”

We have just left our dog Hugo with Max B for 2 nights while we were away on holiday. It was the first time that he had been away with new people, but he was looked after amazingly by the whole family. Regular updates on all his new amazing walks, with pictures of him making himself at home to recover. It was so reassuring for us to have the constant contact knowing he was having his very own holiday too. We wont hesitate to use Max B again in the future. Just a shame they are as far away as they are.
We were really pleased with Scott looking after our staffy Reggie for our first family trip away. Scott was friendly, reliable and kept me updated with photos while I was away, which gave us peace of mind. Reggie was clearly happy and well looked after when I collected him. I’d definitely use Scott again and would recommend to other pet owners looking for reliable care. Thanks again.
Oddie had a fab time staying with Emma this weekend! Emma is brilliant and so lovely. The photos and videos were so great to see and put my mind at rest. Emma went above and beyond to give Oddie a really fun experience with other dogs and on lots of walks and a really nice run in a field. I can tell that all the dogs that Emma looks after absolutely love her. Oddie definitely does! He's come back home shattered and that's the best sign of him having so much fun. I cannot thank Emma enough! I will definitely be contacting Emma again in the future.
I honestly couldn’t have asked for better sitters than Stacey and Paul. From the moment I dropped my boy off at 5pm, they made me feel completely comfortable and reassured. They kept sending me the sweetest little photo updates throughout the evening which honestly meant so much and really showed how loved and settled he was. When I picked him up at half 1, he was so happy, calm and relaxed, and you could just tell he’d had the loveliest time with them. It’s so special finding people who genuinely care for your baby like their own, and that’s exactly how Stacey and Paul made me feel. Thank you both so much again for being so kind, caring and amazing. I’m so grateful and I would absolutely book with you again without a second thought 💙🐾
We are so happy to have found Jess! She was so kind and thoughtful in all her communications and at our pre-meeting Gracie obviously felt at home straight away. Our handover with Gracie before going away was really comprehensive - Jess was careful to take notes of all that Gracie might need. We are so grateful to her for all her care looking after our elderly dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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 West Midlands 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 .
