“We booked our golden doodle Freddie for a three night stay with Elizabeth and I can only say how delighted we are with the care and affection our wee doodle received. From the initial meet n greet, a few days before his stay, Freddie was warmly welcomed into the family and very quickly settled with Elizabeth. He was spoiled all weekend with woodland walks, sniffing safaris at the local park and even a trip to Loch Lomond for a dip! With lovely photos and regular updates on his stay we felt so reassured that he was in safe hands and having a great time with an experienced dog lover! We’re so pleased to have found Elizabeth and Freddie is looking forward to his next stay already!”
“Lauren looked after Mazey for 2 nights and did a brilliant job. She updated me regularly and took her lots of lovely walks. I know Mazey was in safe and caring hands and want to thank Lauren for being so thoughtful and kind.”
“I have an extremely energetic & playful one year old Cocker Spaniel and this was the first time that l needed to place him with a boarder. Naturally l was very apprehensive but Liam took the time to meet up beforehand, to check that both he & my dog would get along. It was clear that he loves & cares for dogs therefore l was reassured that he would do his best to follow my pet's daily routine regarding exercise, feeding etc. Liam also sent us regular updates & photos which gave us complete peace of mind, allowing us to relax on our holiday knowing that Caelo was in safe hands. My puppy was clearly well looked after and it was obvious that he had made a new friend. I would not hesitate to recommend Liam to others & hope that he is available should we need him again in the future.”
“Jacques was wonderful - professional and communicative throughout. Would recommend to anyone. Both dogs had a great time and were well looked after. In particular our anxious dog received excellent care and attention which helped with her separation anxiety.”
About: I’ve loved animals, especially dogs, for as long as I can remember. I’m not quite ready to get a dog of my own yet but I really enjoy spending time with and looking after them. I grew up with a dog, so I miss having one around! I’ve looked after lots of dogs over the years for friends and family, which I’ve always really enjoyed. My boyfriend and I have plenty of free weekends, and I’m out walking a lot anyway, which always feels a bit strange without a dog beside me. Dog sitting would be a lovely way to have some doggy company while also helping people out when they need someone to doggy sit. ☺️ I currently work full-time Monday to Friday, but I’m able to work from home quite often, which gives me some flexibility during the week. My boyfriend is also home a lot during the week, so there is usually someone around. At weekends, unless we have plans, we’re usually out enjoying a walk or having a chilled day at home. This means we have plenty of time to give a dog company, attention and plenty of walks. 😃 I live in a first floor flat with plenty of grassy areas nearby, and I’m also right beside the canal, which is a lovely, dog-friendly place for walks. The street I live on is quiet and peaceful, with lots of children and dogs around, so it’s a friendly and welcoming environment for dogs.
“Chaos had a great time with Amy , would recommend to anyone got photo updates and a msg to let me know how she was doing Amy is a lovely person and I will be sure to use again thank you for having my fur baby”
“From start to finish, Claire was brilliant. So warm and caring with our wee old man French Bulldog, Frank, and he had an absolute ball. Her home is lovely and welcoming, and she and her wee daughter were great with him, he settled in straight away. Claire kept in touch while we were away, sending photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. Frank barely wanted to come home. If you’re looking for someone genuinely caring to look after your pup, Claire’s your girl. Couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: I love being around animals. Had a cat growing up but always wanted a dog. Now that I am working remotely I was able to fulfil my dream and have a small poodle myself. I know how much time and care is needed to look after an animal. Dogs and cats alike. I am currently working remotely. I am flexible and can set my schedule around the needs of your best friend. I can go for a short drop-in visit to make sure they are ok and provide a quick walk or have the time for longer walks. I live in an apartment with my partner. As I have a small dog myself it is tidy and dog proof. I have a fenced in garden and Kelvingrove park is about two minutes away. There are plenty of walks close by to discover. During Drop in visits I am respecting the pet owners home. I will keep it clean and organised. I have experience with separation anxiety in dogs. Your dog will not be left alone when staying with me. During their stay I will keep you updated with pictures.
“Paula was wonderful and very thoughtful and mindful. She kept me updated as to how Holly was doing the entire time and let me know of anything potentially concerning that I'll need to get checked out at the vets. She made sure Holly was comfortable during her stay, even if this meant letting her take over Billy's beds! Absolutely wonderful experience and Holly is a happy gal ❤️”
“Great experience with Erin, Tanya loved her wee stay, got sent some pics and recieved replies to any message I sent promptly. She was brilliant with Tanya and we would both recommend Erin to anyone and would deffinetly pick her again on ROVER. 👌”
“Booked my wee dog Noodles in to stay with Aashish and his lovely wife for an overnight stay and will 100% be doing so again. Aashish provided updates throughout Noodles’ stay with them and could see how at home Noodles felt with them. Taking Noodles home he was calm and happy. Could tell he had a great time! Would recommend Aashish to anyone who wants to feel confident their dog will be in a warm, friendly and affectionate home away from home!”
“James was great; responsive to a meet up before we left just to ensure dogs got on etc., and kept us updated with photos while we were away. Pablo clearly felt at home, and was returned healthy and happy - we’re so pleased to have met someone we’d be happy to leave him with again. Thanks to both James and his partner for looking after him so well.”
“Michael was a brilliant dog sitter. We left our very shy dog with him for nearly 5 days and she settled in very quickly and well. He was extremely patient and thoughtful in his care of her. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave her with him again.”
“Mark and his wife were brilliant with Winston. We met before hand to discuss his needs. They sent me updates with pictures when he was with them. Would definitely use them again.”
“I found Harry to be really supportive, caring and with great communication and updates about Marcy. I'd love her to sit for Marcy again and would happily recommend to anyone looking for a home-from-home for their beloved doggy 🐶”
About: Hi, I'm Lauren, I'm 23, a recent Master's graduate who loves running, hill-walking and a cosy movie-night. So, no matter your pet's temperament, I can meet them where they're at! I have had two cats and two dogs growing up, and have spent the last 16 years pet-sitting for neighbours and friends. Having moved away from home, I am absolutely missing having some pets around and so am more than happy to spoil yours! Having had both of my dogs since they were puppies, I have taken part in several puppy-training classes and even managed to get our spaniel to have some decent recall! As I am working from home, I can take pets out for bathroom breaks frequently throughout the day, and am available for ad-hoc calls. I live in a large ground-floor flat, a short walk to Victoria Park and so am happy to spend time throwing a ball around. I have a fenced garden, a smoke-free home and plenty of space for your pet to roam around. We also have a spare bedroom and so if your pet prefers a bit of space, they can chill out on their own terms.
“I would definitely recommend Ioana. She provided a calm environment for our dog who can be anxious at times and kept us updated with videos and photos so I had peace of mind while being away.”

Luca had his second stay with Bryony and was clearly very happy to be back ! He was quite content when I left him and seemed to have a lovely time. I got regular updates & he seemed relaxed when I picked him up . Bryony is very calm and good with him. Recommend her as a pet sitter!
This was my first time using a dog sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but from the very beginning she made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. She kindly arranged for me to meet her beforehand with my dog, Biscuit, which really helped reassure me. It was clear straight away that she was very knowledgeable about dogs and genuinely cared about their wellbeing. Throughout Biscuit’s stay, she kept me updated every day and sent plenty of lovely pictures, which I really appreciated and made being away from her so much easier. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy and knowledgeable dog sitter, and I would absolutely use her again. Biscuit clearly had a wonderful time!
Booked my wee dog Noodles in to stay with Aashish and his lovely wife for an overnight stay and will 100% be doing so again. Aashish provided updates throughout Noodles’ stay with them and could see how at home Noodles felt with them. Taking Noodles home he was calm and happy. Could tell he had a great time! Would recommend Aashish to anyone who wants to feel confident their dog will be in a warm, friendly and affectionate home away from home!
Jacques was absolutely fantastic with my dogs Fendi and Darla! He was incredibly friendly, and clearly very caring from the moment I met him. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in such good hands. What really stood out was how many updates Jacques sent us throughout the stay, plenty of photos and messages, which was so reassuring and lovely to receive. It was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and having a great time. I would 100% recommend Jacques to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. I’ll definitely be booking him again!
Ailsa was wonderful! She sent plenty of updates over the weekend to ensure we knew our puppy was comfortable and adjusting well to his first boarding experience. He came home well exercised and rested. She has a caring touch! We’d definitely leave him with her again.
Darren and his partner were very accommodating and helped me out with a last minute booking when my sitter fell through. We did a meet and greet and I felt confident that they would be great sitters who could make sure to follow Luna’s routine and make her stay as close to home as possible. By all accounts she had a great time, would book again

Frequently asked questions about Rover

When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog has an overnight booking in a sitter’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.
The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one pet owner's pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.
Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Boarding. With 1,022 sitters in East Dunbartonshire, 68% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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.
