“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Maria looked after our dog while we were in hospital for the birth of our son via a planned C-section, and she completely put our minds at ease. She kindly offered to have him the night before our scheduled booking at no extra cost, which took so much stress out of an already busy time. When our discharge from hospital was delayed, she also kept him for the rest of the day without asking for any additional payment. Throughout his stay, Maria kept us updated with messages and photos, so we always knew he was happy and having a great time. He got on brilliantly with her Chihuahua, and it was lovely to see him so relaxed and enjoying himself. Maria went above and beyond for us during such an important time, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. We'll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Maria! 🐾💙”
“We left Ruby over the weekend and she certainly looked content on the pictures that Caitlian sent over, we have already book again for April and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone 5*”
“Holly was fantastic looking after our border collie and updated us with pictures and videos. It was a super hot weekend and she even had our dog in the paddling pool with her daughter. He came back a very happy tired dog!”
“Our first time using dog boarding for mollie so I was unsure and uneasy about a few things and I can 100% recommend celine and Leigh, nice and easy drop off/pick ups and so friendly. I felt at ease knowing she was being well looked after the whole time, and had lots of photos and messages updates etc. Mollie will definitely be returning for our next holiday! Thank you!❤️”
“Both my fur baby's stayed with Alex well I took my kids on a coach trip and before that they went for a trial day and I had the same problem both times they dug their paws in and didn't want to leave they absolutely loved it there and with the other beautiful dogs to play with and all the cuddles and fusses they was getting I don't think they realised I had gone.in the day I was getting plenty of photo and video updates on how they was doing that put me more at ease leaving them would definitely recommend her to anyone she's my girls favourite person now.”

“Katia and James were amazing with Jack. He got on well with their own dog and thoroughly enjoyed his stay. We was updated on how he was doing. Definitely will be back highly recommend x”
“We had such a great experience and felt completely at ease leaving our little Pomeranian girl for two weeks. From the very beginning, it was clear how much they genuinely care about the dogs they look after. We visited before booking so our dog could meet them first, which really helped put us at ease. Their house was very clean and felt like a safe, comfortable environment for a small dog. Communication was easy and responsive throughout our time away, and they regularly sent us photos and updates, which we really appreciated. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable with them — not stressed at all. It genuinely felt like she had been treated as part of the family. Leaving your dog for an extended period isn’t easy, but they made the whole experience completely stress-free. Knowing she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for meant everything to us. We’d happily leave her with them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other dog owners. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Well what can I say Alison is AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING 🤩 It took me 2 yrs to find this lovely dog caring lady . My dog Honey has never been left with anyone before as she suffers from separation anxiety and cannot be left alone . Because of this problem it was difficult to find someone who would care for her and be there 24/7 but I eventually found Alison she cared and loved for Honey the same as I do with lots of love and cuddles and she really put my mind at ease so that I could enjoy my holiday with regular updates . 10 🌟”

Huge thanks to Jade for looking after our chi. She was kind reliabl and kept us updated with lovely photoswhich gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our dog was happy and well looked after and we came home to a relaxed and content pup. We’d definitely recommend Jade and would happily book again!
Katie was very accommodating to our all of our needs regarding Milo staying with her. She kept us updated with regular updates during his stay......which was very reassuring with him being a young dog and having never stopped with anyone else. We can recommend Katie & will not hesitate to use her again in the future when the need arises.
Annabel is an absolute dream! Rufus stayed for 2 nights while we had plans, and I could tell by the photos sent that he was having such a great time and was happy and living his best life. He was so well looked after, and Annabel kept his routine perfectly. He enjoyed walks with Nala the Labrador for company too. I’d definitely recommend Annabel, and won’t hesitate to let her look after Rufus again, seeing how much he loved being there.
Amazing 🤩, perfect home for our little doggie 🐶. Kátia was able to accommodate my request at short notice after a mix up and communication was fast and friendly. Luna had a lovely stay and was cared for impeccably, with walks, love and a lovely home style boarding. Photos were sent and questions were answered straight away. Lovely lady I would 10000% recommend and will definitely use again when I need care. X thanks you Kátia xx
I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog . Madison kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog instantly felt comfortable with her and came back happy, relaxed, and well taken care of. It’s clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. I would highly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter🩷

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Doncaster on Rover is £32.2 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 .

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 Yorkshire and the Humber 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 .
