“Jan and Bruce were absolutely fantastic with Cheddar. We received regular pictures and updates throughout her stay, which was lovely and really reassured us that she was happy and having a great time. They were brilliant at following Cheddar’s usual routine and adapting to her schedule, which meant she settled in so well. Seeing how happy and comfortable she was made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our holiday without worrying about her for a moment. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Jan and Bruce again. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of our girl!”
“We are so grateful to Claire and Ross for looking after Ava so well and like one of their own. She had a great holiday with them and Syd! We had a great holiday knowing she was being so well cared for, we enjoyed the regular updates, photos and videos of her enjoying her time with them - thank you both so much!”
“Maria and Ben were absolutely wonderful with my pup, Nala! From the very start they were so friendly and welcoming, and Nala instantly felt at home with them and their lovely dog, Pearl. Maria sent me such thoughtful updates and photos, which showed just how much fun Nala was having and how happy and relaxed she was in their care. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was so well looked after and enjoying herself. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters – I’d highly recommend Maria!”
“Remy has had the best time with Pam. Regular updates during her stay were so lovely. She was taken on long walks, treated as a family pet and obviously felt very at home. Such a nice calm environment, absolutely perfect for Remy! We will definitely be booking Remy in again and highly recommend Pam as a sitter. Thanks so much for your kindness”
“Roo absolutely loved his stay and John is clearly a dog lover and excellent dog sitter with excellent communication. John sent lots of pics of Roo enjoying himself. He has a great environment for dogs with an enclosed back garden.”
“Lijo and his family were great. They watched Lola and Nalu for us ad Lond administered Nalu’s medicine and eye drops as she scratched her eye unexpectedly two days before boarding. They kept us up to date with photos and videos during the pups’ stay. We are grateful for their care of our doggies! Thank you again!”
“Wonderful family to look after your dog! We Had lots of updates and our dog Terry made himself at home with Sarah and family very quickly! In fact I’m pretty sure he copped a strop when we bought him home because hes been missing his little friend Rudi. Thank you so much for having him, would definitely recommend and would definitely use again 🙂”
“Dave had a brilliant stay with Alix this weekend. I got plenty of pictures and updates so I could see he was happy and having a good time. Would definitely use Alix again!”
“Janet had a lovely home to take care of Lobo in. She was relaxed and friendly and Lobo who can be nervous when we leave her, was happy to be there. Janet took her plenty walks and took good care of her. Would definitely use Janet again.”
“Ralph was looked after so well by Wasana! I honestly can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she gave him. She kept me updated throughout with lots of photos, videos and messages, which really put my mind at ease and meant I could relax knowing he was happy and well cared for. Thank you again, Wasana — we’ll definitely be booking again soon! 😊”
“So happy we found Jack! He made us feel at ease leaving our boy! He’s very calm and I believe that helped Jed to settle with him! Jack gave us regular updates with photos! He was very quick to respond to any message or worry I had! I’m certain Jed had a lovely time! I would highly recommend Jack to anyone looking for someone to look after their beloved pet!”
“Aimee was a great sitter for our dog! She played with her and took her on walks in the day and the evening. She sent us photos of our dog throughout the day. Aimee was flexible with our pickup time which was so helpful.”
“Lexie had two nights with Julie and her family. As always Julie was very flexible and welcoming. Lexie was very well taken care of and we were kept up to date with pics and texts. It was lovely not to have to worry about her at all whilst we were away and she came home very happy.”
“Suey was amazing from start to finish. Very speedy responses when setting the booking up and lots of updates on our dogs while minding them. They both looked very happy and safe. Highly recommend!”
“Wade and Michelle took amazing care of our very nervous and quite high maintenance dog, Cookie. They very kindly met Cookie in advance, and during the stay sent regular updates and photos of them on walks and snuggling on the sofa. They are a lovely family and we will be using them again.”
“Adam and Shannon were great with our miniature schnauzer Tess. We had a pre-visit which was really helpful to chat and see how she would settle. Communication was good before and whilst we were away. Tess was very happy on our return so we will definitely be booking again.”
“Sasha and her partner Hayden were amazing right from when I reached out to book the stay. They came to meet me for coffee so I could ask all my questions and put my mind totally at ease. Sasha sent us lots of messages over the stay with updates and pictures of Hugo which was lovely. Hugo felt very at home with them as even when I came to pick him up he was still trying to play with them. It was very obvious that Hugo has an amazing time and we will definitely call Sasha next time we go away!”
About: I first became a "dog Mum" 15 years ago to our Westie, Elland, who sadly we lost recently. I sadly was that annoying "Dog Mum" who had pictures of her on my desk and booked holiday for her birthday each year. I took voluntary redundancy nearly 6 years ago so have been fortunate to spend quality time at home with her and take her out and about on our own or with her other doggy friends. Unfortunately she lost her hearing about 3 years ago so learnt quickly how to communicate with her with some basic sign language. She also developed dry eye disease so I had to administer drops 5 times each day. Two of these were determined by time so I had to ensure I was available to give her these on time. The last 5 months of her life, her arthritis worsened so I bought a buggy to help her whilst out for daily walks/sniffs. I have also looked after family dogs whilst they have been on holiday and have accomodated raw feeding for one of family dogs. I live with my husband in a bungalow. He still works but is here in the evenings and at weekends. I work during examination periods at a local college but can accomodate pet sitting around this as dates are known well in advance. My contract with the college is ona casual basis so dog sitting will be my priority. We have used a local dog sitter who stayed in our home when we went on holiday. I therefore understand the importance of providing important information to the pet sitter when leaving the pet. When I first stopped working I volunteered for a local hospice helping support a family who used their services, by walking their dog on a weekly basis to give them some respite and also encourage the dog to socilise. I did this for 12 months. I also volunteered at Wood Green Animal Charity during Covid restrictions. Although I was there to help in the fundraising office, we often had dogs who weren't settling in kennels, come and sit with us in the office for the day. Some were quite withdrawn so I learnt how to slowly gain their trust. I am retired so home all day. My husband works full time but is home in the evenings and at weekends. I do some casual exam invigilating but I know dates for this in advance so will not take on any work if pet sitting is booked. I am happy to be led by the owners on when and what activity their dog (s) are used to so am pretty flexible. I have acess to my own car so can take the dog to any appointments if required. I have a fully fenced in garden (6ft) I live in a village with lots of access to quiet walks in the countryside if required, as well as walks within the village itself. I am happy to book out local secure dog fields if agreed with the owner but this will involve driving to nearby fields. As previously mentioned we live in a bungalow so no stairs. We are based in a quiet cul-de-sac so if your dog is reactive to traffic, should not be a problm here. I have space for a medium size crate if required.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in East Cambridgeshire is £35

Ralph was looked after so well by Wasana! I honestly can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she gave him. She kept me updated throughout with lots of photos, videos and messages, which really put my mind at ease and meant I could relax knowing he was happy and well cared for. Thank you again, Wasana — we’ll definitely be booking again soon! 😊
Bobby had a wonderful stay at Ferns. The welcome was well organised allowing me time to discuss Bobby’s ways and introduce him. I was put at ease straight away as there was clearly a professional understanding of dog behaviour and care. I will definitely be visiting again and I am so relieved to find such a trustworthy dog minder. Excellent
Lauren and her partner, Tom, were brilliant with my Staffy. They were very welcoming and accommodating and clearly love dogs. Their property is very dog-friendly and I had great peace of mind knowing she was in safe hands. I’m thrilled to have found them and will hopefully be rebooking in the future! Thanks

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 East of England 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.
