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.
“Joanne was able to care for our Loki at short notice, Loki was very comfortable once he settled down from the excitement of have Joanne’s dog as a friend to play with, he was very relaxed and happy when we collected him later that day. Very happy with how Joanne looked after Loki. Will definitely be looking to book up with Joanne again. Thanks a million Joanne.”

“I genuinely can’t thank Chanise and Jake enough for how amazing they were with Bella. ❤️ My booking was incredibly last minute, but they were so kind and accommodating and made arrangements to be available for her. Bella has never been away from me unless she’s been with family, so I was honestly so, so nervous leaving her. I think anyone who has a dog will understand just how difficult it can be to leave your fur baby with someone new, especially for the first time. 🥹 From the moment I spoke with Chanise for the first time to picking up Bella, the communication was absolutely amazing. The regular updates, pictures and messages throughout the day meant more to me than they probably realise. Seeing Bella looking happy, comfortable and settled instantly put my mind at ease. Being sent pictures of her was definitely the highlight of my day because, if I’m honest, I’d been worrying about her constantly! ❤️ Bella made herself right at home almost immediately, and I truly believe that’s because of how gentle, loving and welcoming Chanise and Jake were with her. They made her feel so comfortable and treated her as though she was one of their own. They were also so flexible and happy to make their home feel like Bella’s home too, keeping things as familiar as possible for her — even letting her enjoy her favourite spot on the sofa! 🐶🥰 This was our first time with them, but I can say with complete confidence that it definitely won’t be our last. I left Bella with them feeling nervous, but I picked her up feeling so grateful and reassured knowing she had been so well cared for. Bella is home now, curled up fast asleep in my lap, and I think that says absolutely everything about the day she’s had. 🥹❤️ A tired and happy dog is the best review of all! Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of my girl and for giving me the reassurance I needed. It’s such a relief to find people you can genuinely trust with someone who means so much to you. 100% recommend Chanise and Jake to anyone looking for loving, reliable and genuinely caring doggy care. Bella has definitely found her second home! ❤️🐾”
“Gabriella was absolutely lovely with our dog Enzo. She kept us updated throughout the day with sweet messages and photos - he looked like he was having a blast. Enzo came home happy, tired and clearly well cared for. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Luna spent the day with Diana and she had a fantastic stay. I picked Luna up happy she was well exercised and I was kept up to date with lots of pictures throughout the day and she made another furry friend. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for dog sitting.”
About: I grew up in a family and we always had dogs as pets and have always loved every kind dog. I also have always looked after my friends dogs when needed and treated them like it was my own dog. In recent years I have assisted a family member who’s looks after dogs on a day care and boarding basis, in doing so I have gained experience of looking after all types of dogs I attend night college 1/2 a week at present and therefore I’m available most days and weekends to look after a dog of any kind I have my very own large apartment and am able to accommodate a dog easily and I’m surrounded by open spaces to walk the dog insuring any exercise and toilet needs are met.
“Leonor was so friendly and kind and really made Buster feel at home. He had the best day with her and she kept me updated with lovely photos through the day. 100% would rebook!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs regularly for the past 3 years, mostly looking after two senior dogs for one friend and a young puppy for another. This has given me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, from gentle senior care to playful puppy stages. From age 15 I cared for dogs within my family, supporting with walks, feeding, and keeping them settled while owners were away. In addition, I‘ve cared for my family kitten, and as an indoor cat, he required consistent feeding, litter care, playtime, and a calm presence, something I’m very comfortable providing. Working from home, enables me to give consistent attention throughout the day and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Every dog or cat in my care is treated with patience, attentiveness, and love. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care, supervision, companionship and regular walks or drop-ins throughout the day. I’m flexible during weekdays and available most weekends, making it easy to fit pet care naturally into my routine. When caring for dogs or cats in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions provided. I ensure doors and gates are always secured, keep environments tidy and safe. If crate training is part of their routine, I’m comfortable supporting that in a gentle and positive way. My focus is always on providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment while you’re away.
“Jeanett was a great sitter, she kept us updated throughout with pictures and videos, and her dog Argos is calm and friendly and a good influence on our puppy. Will definitely be booking Jeanett again.”
About: I am a proud pug mama and lifelong animal lover who truly understands how tough it is to leave your furry family members behind when you go to work or head off on holiday. Finding someone you can completely trust is always a top priority, and I would love to give you that total peace of mind! My partner and I recently moved into a spacious 4-bedroom house in Rainham with a big, secure garden that is absolutely perfect for zoomies and sunbathing. Since we mostly work from home, your sweet pup will never be lonely and will get constant love, supervision, and endless pampering. Plus, our friendly pug Frizzi just loves welcoming new friends over for playdates! 🥰 We offer cozy overnight Dog Boarding and fun Doggy Day Care. Every stay includes tailored walks, lots of playtime, and a relaxed home environment. We welcome friendly, socialised dogs but cannot host cats. Your pup will be safe, happy, and incredibly spoiled! My husband and I work from home alternative days. There is always someone at home . If we have to go to the office we ensure we r back by lunchtime I have fenced garden and a 4 bed house. The dogs are allowed on furniture and in all rooms :) their comfort is our main priority. We want our guests to feel at home
“Marcela was great with Grayson! She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos. He had a great time and it was lovely to see how happy and comfortable he was with her. I felt completely reassured knowing he was being well looked after. I would definitely recommend Marcela and would happily use her again”
“My pup is a mummy's boy and can make a fuss when I leave, but Madalina is a so patient and is able to distracts him that he soon stops fussing. Sonney wagging tail is a true indicator that he is content in Madalina company and enjoys his time with her :-)”
“Lovely doggy daycare and very friendly couple who obviously love the dogs they care for. Provided lots of photos and updates, and a happy and tired puppy returned to me- proof of a good day!”
“She took a great care of my baby Pepper! I was worried as Pepper is having diarrhea with a trace of blood, She kindly took Pepper in and gave the best care! She gave Pepper a bum wipe and provided me a detailed explanation on how his poop was like, which was a great help, and even set the house for Pepper when she dropped Pepper at my flat! Thanks to her Pepper had a fan on and plenty of water while waiting for me to come back. Pepper looked so happy and energetic when I got home, I can only assume that he had the best day at her place❣️”

Marcela is such a sweet person and genuinely loves dogs. She has a beautiful apartment and there is a lovely park nearby. Hestia was very happy on her first day, and Marcela sent us photos of their walk and of Hestia playing with a new toy that Marcela gave her. Although Hestia is generally nervous in a new environment, she spent much of the time sleeping with her tummy up, which shows how comfortable and relaxed she felt. She seemed very happy and calm when she got home. We will definitely be booking longer stays in the future, and I would have no hesitation in recommending Marcela.
Ronnie and her family are truly wonderful people! Our Charlie absolutely loves spending time with Ronnie and always comes home happy and relaxed. We receive plenty of adorable photos and videos every day, which really reassures us that he’s having the best time and is well looked after. If you’re searching for a safe, loving, and trustworthy place for your pet, we couldn’t recommend Ronnie more highly!

There are 16,222 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Dagenham. About 87% of Dagenham 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.

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 Dagenham 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 Greater London 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 .
