About: Experienced, patient, and passionate about dogs. I’ve cared for pups of all ages and sizes, always offering personalised, loving care in a calm, safe environment. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I plan my day around walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles with my own dog, Oakley. Having other dogs join us just adds to the joy. I work from home, so your pet will never be left alone and will always have company, structure, and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s morning strolls, afternoon garden play, or quiet evening snuggles, caring for dogs is built into my everyday routine — and I genuinely love it. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They’ll enjoy a calm, comfortable space with plenty of attention, affection, and play. I stick closely to their usual routines — from feeding schedules to sleeping habits — to make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible. With a large, secure garden and regular daily walks, they’ll get plenty of exercise and fresh air. I keep things clean, safe, and full of love, ensuring every dog feels at home. If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions closely and keep everything as familiar and comforting as possible.

About: We have both grown up being surrounded by pets, especially cats and dogs since we was little. We have spent lots of years both looking after and continual training puppies and kittens for friends and family. I've also experienced the latter stages of life and illnesses along the way. We have the perfect setting for all your pets needs and it would truly be a home from home setting. We offer a family service and setting. I work 3 shifts per week and Greta works part time. There is always at least one of us at home so can offer our services 24 hours per day,7 days per week. We have a large house and a lovely secure and fenced garden and we are located right next to a nature reserve which is perfect for lovely long dog walks. Downstairs we have 3 large spaces for all our furry friends to enjoy. We have ample amounts of space for crate training and boarding areas within the family home.
“Picked up two happy dogs at the end of the day , so they must have enjoyed their day , Sarah is highly recommended if you are looking for somebody to look after your fur babies in a secure setting.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since being a little child. From being puppies to adult hood I have the experience and knowledge of how dogs can behave and interact. I have experienced many different situations which has given me the knowledge and skills to be able to overcome any issues effectively. I understand how dogs may react differently depending on the situation and how to manage this. I currently work from home full time 5 days a week on weekdays. This gives me more flexibility regarding my work life balance along with my home life. I also have access to a car. In order to care for pets in the owners home I will get to know the animal and have through interactions with them in order to access their needs. Conversations with the owners will also provide me with more information in order to care for them in the best possible way.
“Finding a dog sitter for 2 robust German shepherds is always a bit of a challenge for me, however Tina responded to my enquiry immediately and was happy to care for them for the day, even given the short notice. She came to meet them both the day before at my house and they took to her immediately. She sent lots of pupdates of their Sunday at her house and they come home very tired from their play day. I would absolutely use her service again 🤩”

“Excellent communication throughout the day, lots of photos and I felt safe with Dee looking after her. Dee’s house and garden are also a perfect environment. No concerns whatsoever. 😊”


About: I’ve had family dogs all of my life, and my own dogs for the last 15 years or so. I often look after dogs of family and friends. I currently have a ten year old male patterjack who is good with other dogs and a six year old daughter who loves dogs too. Your dog will be allowed everywhere in the house and can even sleep in bed with me and my dog should they wish. We do an hour long walk in woodland each day and lots of play and attention at home. I work part time from home so your dog will never be left alone for more than 30 minutes. We go walking in the local woodland for an hour each day. Your dog can treat our home like their own. I have a fenced garden but your dog will never be left outside unattended. I have a dog friendly small male dog and a daughter. Your dog will be allowed anywhere in the home. I will only feed your dog with food and treats you provide unless you specify otherwise. They can sleep where they like but I’ll adhere to your required sleeping arrangements for them.
“Doug had such a wonderful time with Lisa and her family. They really did treat him as part of the family and can tell by pics he enjoyed all the attention. Communication was really good prior and during his stay. Also pass on thanks for Doug's leaving gift he's been having a snuggle with it since ❤️”

About: I've fostered dogs for a number of years as well as owning a number of pets. I currently have 1 male (neutered) cat and always looking for more pet friends. I work from home, and I'm rarely away from the house. I'm free to look after your pet most days and especially love walking dogs to help keep me mobile and away from the home office I live in a quiet cul de sac, with a fenced garden. I work from home so it's very rare someone is not home. I have recent DBS checks due to work.
About: I have been around cats and dogs since birth. I have experience in all different types of animals, owning cats, dogs, horses, fish and a leapard gecko. I used to train and care for polo ponies. I currently have 2 cats and 2 miniature dachshunds after losing my 15 year old Jack Russell 3 years ago. I am a stay at home mum so I am around 24/7 for our animals and children at home. They will only be left for the school run during the week. I regularly go out walking and have plenty of off road walking around a duck pond near us. We are also regular visitors to Rother Valley Country Park. We have 2 boys who are 2 and 10 and are huge animal fans too!! Kennels seem daunting for our tiny babies. I only accept dogs from one family at a time, therefore you will always know they receive the best bespoke care. Dogs will have a home from home experience in a clean and safe environment. They can join us on the sofa for cuddles and will be treat like on of our own babies! I have an enclosed garden for the dogs to play and toilet, but toileting will mainly be through multiple walks per day. The back rooms of the house are mainly where our animals live as this is where I spend the most of my day with my 2 year old. If the weather allows the backdoor is usually open for free flow from room to our secure garden. Dogs MUST be child, dog and cat friendly. Adult dogs must be toilet trained. My home is also very close to DSA airport so you can leave your dogs in safe hands and catch your flight and be reunited very quickly after landing! I cater for toy/miniature/small breeds in our home, due having a miniature dachshund myself and small children. Standard dachshunds are also welcome as who doesn't love a sausage?! Home visits we can cater for any size dog or cat! I can visit areas: Rossington, Bawtry, Misson, Austerfield, Auckley, Branton, Cantley, Armthorpe. I have an enhanced dbs check.
About: With over four decades of dedicated experience, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages and a wide variety of breeds. My home, a comfortable 2-bedroom house, is ideally situated directly opposite a sprawling country park, providing endless opportunities for walks and outdoor adventures. I'm proud to say that the dogs I care for consistently show their happiness and eagerness to return. You can expect regular updates on your pet's stay. Every owner receives photos of their dog enjoying their time with me, typically sent via WhatsApp for convenience. I believe in keeping you fully informed and connected with your beloved companion throughout their visit. Being at home full-time allows me to fully commit to your dog's well-being. I focus on maintaining their established routines and ensuring they receive all the walks they need, treating each dog with the same love and attention I give my own. My property boasts a secure, fully fenced garden, perfect for safe play. The immediate proximity to the country park means daily access to expansive green spaces for exercise and exploration. Inside, my 2-bedroom home features practical, easy-to-clean flooring, making it perfectly suited for dogs, especially after muddy park adventures. I also have a friendly small dog who loves making new canine friends, ensuring a sociable and happy environment for your pet. Your dog's care will be tailored precisely to your wishes, and their familiar home routine will be diligently upheld. As a retired individual home most days, dog care fits seamlessly into my routine. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, and companionship while managing errands. When it comes to looking after your beloved pets, I provide attentive, reliable, and loving care, whether in your home or mine. My services are tailored to meet the unique needs of your furry friends, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.
About: No matter the age, size or breed of dogs, all they would like is to be loved and cared for. A dog doesn’t deserve to be locked away for hours on end in solitary confinement, a pack animal needs to have company and be stimulated, I can care for your dog in my own home in a family environment. As a retired person I have the ability to provide care for dogs ensuring they are have the correct amount of exercise and stimulation throughout the day and given attention throughout the night. My garden is fully enclosed and secured with large garden gates to ensure nothing can enter or leave without the family being made aware. Security is a major issue when entrusting someone to care for your pet!
About: Hello I’m Jane. I live in Barnburgh, Doncaster with my husband David in a spacious home with a medium sized, secure garden that is fenced off and locked at all times. I am leaving my 9-5 office job to become a full time dog walker. I am available through the week and also at weekends. I have owned dogs my whole life and they have always been a big part of my family. At the moment I have 2 dogs; Albus, and Dot. Albus is a 2 year old cockapoo and bundle of joy, he will be joining me on most of my walks as he doesn’t leave my side. Dot is a 9 year old small lurcher and will occasionally join me but you’ll find them mostly chilling in the sun, enjoying a quiet life. I decided to become a dog walker to turn my passion for dogs into a career that I love. I have experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. Every dog is different, that’s why tailor my services to meet the unique needs of your pet. I work on building amazing bonds with the dogs I care for and trusting relationships with my clients too. I offer 1 hour dog walks as well as day care and overnight stays. Each service will begin with a free consultation with you and your dog. Whilst in my care, your dog will have access to my garden and my spacious kitchen area, which is where your dogs will sleep during overnight stays. I am happy to offer a pick up and drop off service. Please note, I will not walk more than 5 dogs at one time and will not keep more than 2 dogs overnight. I am fully insured, highly experienced, DBS checked and first aid trained. I can also offer basic dog training if requested. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends, Jane. After recently giving up my office job I am now available for all services required on a full time basis, during the week and weekends. I have secure, medium sized, locked garden that your dog will have access to. I have three dogs that are very welcoming to new pets. I also have added space to crate and/or separate if needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Doncaster on Rover is £26.45 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,300 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Doncaster. About 85% of Doncaster 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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 Doncaster 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 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.
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 .
