“This is the second time Penny stays for more than a week with Owen. She seemed to have a great time. Owen was very good at communicating how Penny was doing and he sent us many photos and videos. We will definitely board Penny with him and his wife again.”

“Luna was nervous arriving (first daycare experience) but by the time we were leaving her she was running around happy and playing with the other dogs. Lots of puppies with good energy. Anke took great care and clearly loves looking after all the dogs. She also sent us some nice photos and videos of Luna having fun. Luna returned tired out and slept solidly for the rest of the evening.”

“Ronnie and Lizet always take amazing care of my dog Paco. He’s always happy and excited to be there and gets lots of attention and exercise. They are also really good at communicating on the app, lots of regular updates on how he’s doing and quick to answer booking queries which is helpful for me as I often have to make last min arrangements because of my work.”


About: What sets me apart is the time and attention I give to each dog as an individual. I have a real interest in training and canine behaviour, and I’ve personally taught my own dog a wide range of tricks, commands, and good habits using positive reinforcement methods. I enjoy keeping dogs mentally stimulated as well as physically exercised, whether that’s practising commands, teaching fun new tricks, playing enrichment games, or simply reinforcing the routines they’re already familiar with. My occupation is in inclusive teaching so I’m patient, observant, and happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your dog is energetic and eager to learn or prefers a calmer pace, I’ll make sure they feel confident, engaged, and well cared for throughout their stay. As a teacher, I have a structured routine and plan my pet care commitments carefully to ensure every dog receives the time and attention they deserve. I’m typically available from Thursday through to Sunday, when I can dedicate plenty of time to walks, play, enrichment activities, and companionship. During busier working days, I only take on bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so owners can be confident their dog will receive attentive and reliable care. I believe quality time is just as important as meeting a dog’s basic needs, and I always aim to provide a calm, caring, and engaging environment where dogs feel comfortable and at home. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I’ve had my own pup, Penny, for nearly a year now, so my flat is already set up with dogs in mind and designed to be a safe, welcoming environment for four-legged guests. I live in a secure apartment block with access to plenty of nearby green spaces for walks, exercise, and enrichment. Inside, dogs have a calm and comfortable space to relax, play, and feel at home. I take care to maintain routines, supervise interactions, and ensure pets are always secure and settled. My pup Penny is very friendly and loves to play but is very good at reading other dogs and leaves them alone if they are more shy. As both a dog owner and a teacher, I’m used to being attentive, patient, and proactive. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to help them feel comfortable, build trust, and enjoy their stay. I’ll also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Marcela looked after our Bobby, it appears he had a great time he really took to Marcela. I don't think you could get anyone better or more trustworthy than Marcela to carry out your dog's every needs. I will definitely be leaving Bobby with Marcela again.”

“Maria and Vernon were great in looking after snoopy. He was a happy and energetic boy when we picked him up. Maria sent us loads of pictures throughout. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”

“Leonor is a fantastic cat sitter! Super attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in good hands. I will definitely book again 🙌”


About: I'm an active, outdoorsy person who genuinely loves being around dogs. I take your dog's exercise seriously: proper walks, real time outside, and plenty of stimulation. My hands-on experience comes from regularly walking and caring for two very different dogs — a Staffordshire Bulldog and a French Bulldog. I’m currently working from home with good flexibility. I can work around the schedule for helping out. Weekends should be free in the day too. My flat is a cosy, well-kept one-bedroom on an upper floor — no balcony or outdoor space, but we’re just a 5-minute walk from a park, so dogs get outside plenty. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the flat, which is worth knowing for smaller or older dogs.

“Christina was amazing with my dog. She regularly sent updates with pictures, videos and messages about her.y dog is a fussy eater but managed to get her to eat. My dog normally has anxiety, Christina managed to help her feel relaxed. Definitely booking Christina again. 😀”
“Marianna and Michael were amazing while looking after Lindo. The daily updates on WhatsApp made leaving our little fella so much easier. Such a lovely family with the natural ability to love and look after dogs. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Mango was with Taffany (Siu Yung) for 2 days and she took excellent care of him. She took him for walks through out the day and kept us informed with regular updates with pictures and mesages. She took him out during the rain as well and blow dried him. One could only imagine if someone can be so loving and caring. Taffany and her family kept Mango super happy during his stay. Mango came back super happy after the stay. I would definitely recommend Taffany to anyone and everyone and looking forward for another stay in the future. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of Mango. Much appreciated 🙏”

“It was the first time I left my puppy overnight with someone outside my family, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Andrea was amazing with him, so patient and caring, even though he’s a very energetic Border Collie pup. He clearly felt comfortable and happy with her, and I could tell he really liked her. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him, and I’ve already left him with her again because she made me feel very at ease.”

“I felt very comfortable leaving Hetty with Diana. She also has a lovely dog so was great company for Hetty. Diana and her husband made sure that Hetty felt safe and comfortable the whole time and I had daily updates, photos and videos. Would definitely leave Hetty with Diana again.”

“Liu was fantastic with Juno! She sent plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. Juno looked happy and well cared for the entire time. Highly recommend.”

“It was the first time we had left Troy with a dog sitter. Kevin & Denise kept us updated with photos and a video of Troy's time with them. He has come home happy, it seems he has very much enjoyed his stay. Will not hesitate to book with Kevin & Denise again.”

“Thanks to Ferdinand and family - Remy had a great time staying for the weekend. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos, and are so happy that Remy was welcomed like a member of the family. Remy loved the attention, walks, and lots of ball games! He is looking forward to seeing you again soon.”


About: I offer a home from home for your dogs stay. If your dog stays with me, I will follow your routines and feeding plans and give them a lovely holiday in a happy, safe and loving environment. They will have regular exercise and playtime. I always like to arrange a ‘meet and greet’ with your dog so that we can get to know each other and so that your dog can become familiar with my home. I offer boarding for whilst you are on holiday and also short stays, if you have a special occasion. I have 2 fur babies of my own, a small and medium sized dogs who are friendly and love to have doggy friends come to stay. I am a dog lover, who has had dogs both as a child and as an adult, so has lots of experience. I look after small to medium sized dogs and I accept dogs of any age, young or old and am based in Hornchurch, Essex. I work from home, part time, doing Accounts so looking after the dogs just fits in with my day. I would not be leaving the dogs for any length of time. I have a fenced in garden which allows the dogs the space and freedom to play. I live close to the park and fields for walking the dogs (if owner allows).
“Hands down the best dog sitters/ boarders I have ever booked for my dog Marple- and I have booked with many! Marple is an extremely high energy parson Russell and I was so impressed with how amazing and attentive Brian was in sending me lots of updates and photos and I was not anxious at all. I will definitely book him again. Marple was so well cared for and happy when she was dropped back and Brian had also spotted a potential injury that I had overlooked. I am so grateful and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

Dagenham dog owners share their Rover experiences
Fantastic stay for our French Bulldog. She had visited previously to meet Owen and his dog, she no problems running back in! We’re were really pleased with how comfortable and at ease she was. Owen sent us plenty of pictures making us feel at ease. Would highly recommend.

Another five-star stay for Hestia at Marcela! We received regular photo updates and detailed check-ins on walks and meals throughout her visit. By the second stay, Hestia settled in as if she'd always been there. We couldn't be happier knowing Hestia is in such caring hands whenever we're away.
Leonor has been amazing. Not only did she communicate to let me know my dog was ok, we received wonderful photos where cookie looks SO happy and comfortable from the moment she got there. We think cookie will be having some withdrawals from Leonor and the snuggles that were given. Thank you!

Paulina was brilliant with Belle, she put me at easy, as I was anxious leaving her with someone she didn’t know, we meet once prior to leaving her. But needn’t of worried she had the best time, and wasn’t bothered when we picked her up, she just carried on playing with the toys. Paulina kept us updated with photos so I could see she was fine, even though I couldn’t reply as I was busy at my daughter’s wedding. Would 100% recommend her. Thanks again for looking after Belle she loved her time with u x

Another 10/10 stay with Rima. I can’t overstate how comfortable and happy I am leaving the dogs with her, and how comfortable and happy the dogs are staying with her! They’re so loved and well taken care of, with regular walks and daily photo and video updates. She’s able to meet their needs and deal with medications and special issues. I fully recommend and we will definitely use Rima again!

Eva was absolutely wonderful with our Frenchie! It was the first time we used Eva and it won’t be the last. We got lovely updates with photos everyday, he had a walk everyday too and we felt so at peace knowing our boy was having a brilliant time. Our frenchie was so happy when we collected him, in fact he’s sulking- he misses life with Eva! Thank you so much Eva ❤️❤️ xx

I was really anxious about leaving my Frenchie, Betsy, with strangers as she’s only ever stayed with family when I’ve gone away. But after finding Andy & Natalie, all my worries disappeared! They arranged two meet & greets so we could chat about all of Betsy’s funny little quirks, plus a trial sleepover — and she absolutely loved playing with their lovely Spaniel, Coco. While I was away, I got regular “pupdates” with photos and videos, which made me feel so reassured knowing she was happy and well cared for. Andy & Natalie were fantastic throughout — kind, professional, and genuinely dog-loving. I would 100% leave Betsy with them again! 🐾

Andrea was amazing when Reggie came to stay at her house, really kind and attentive to Reggie’s needs as he had just had an operation, She has a sausage (called Sausage) herself so she understood his needs and looked after him so well, I would definitely recommend and look forward to using her services again. Thank you Andrea and thank you Sausage for looking after Reggie so well

Christina was amazing with my dog. She regularly sent updates with pictures, videos and messages about her.y dog is a fussy eater but managed to get her to eat. My dog normally has anxiety, Christina managed to help her feel relaxed. Definitely booking Christina again. 😀
