About: I’ve owned a dog for 12 years which sadly has passed away recently, i love having dogs around, i mainly work from home so it’s very easy to keep an eye on them and let them outside when needed, and i always like to go on walks and provide treats. I work from home 4 days a week and I can take your dog for a walk on my lunch break and when I finish work with no issues and I am rather flexible and I do drive. I have a fenced and secure garden which they will always be able to access so they can roam freely inside the house and in the garden.

“Stephany was excellent from the initial enquiry to our doggy day-care conclusion. Our puppy seems to have had an enjoyable day in Stephany's company. She's come home in good spirits and is enjoying a well deserved nap. This was our first experience of using Rover and day-care in general. We were able to enjoy some much needed family time knowing that our dog was well cared for”
About: I live in a happy family home, all dog lovers. I have always loved animals and would welcome your best friend in with open arms. I got my first dog in 2015 who quickly became everybody's best friend and part of the family. He had complex needs being a Boston Terrier cross French Bulldog so I have extensive knowledge in brachycephalic dogs. I live in a house with a fenced garden and there is always someone home 24/7. All dogs are allowed on the furniture with plenty of soft blankets, pillows and laps. We live close to a large park and can also drive to other locations. We love a good walk, depending on what your dog needs, there are no set times for walking, it's what suits you best. I have a young son under 5, one dog (Jack Russell) and there is also a cat who lives with us but he's usually curled up asleep. Please get in touch if you would like to know more! I currently work part-time but there is always a dog loving adult at home 24/7. Depending on what you or your dog needs, we can be flexible. I live in a house with a fenced garden, provide a safe, loving environment where dogs are welcome to the furniture and blankets. I can provide regular updates and photos and will just be happy to provide the care and love your dog needs.
“From start to finish, it was extremely easy with Penny. After an initial meet and greet, Moog spent the day with Penny and had a great time. I received an update during the day to give me peace of mind she was getting on well. I would highly recommend Penny and will definitely be re-booking soon.”
“Atlanta was an absolute dream for taking my two on short notice - they can both be a little phased when in a new place but not even 10 minutes after dropping them off I got a photo of them having the biggest cuddles with her! Highly recommend and will definitely be retuning, presuming she wasn’t all cuddled out on this visit!”
About: I don't have a pet of my own, my poodle passed in April 2025, I raised her from a puppy. I am patient, reliable and hard working. I will be able to give your pet the loving attention that they need when you are unable to do so. I have taken care of pets during my years of a housekeeper. I will encourage your pet to have daily exercise and help them to become toilet trained. I am able to remain calm even in the most stressful of environments, helping your pet to feel safe. I would never use physical force on an animal. I also take care of a neighbour's elderly dogs, one is blind and partially deaf and the other is incontinent, I treat all of the dogs with respect and dignity. I work from home, I create characters and other art pieces from polymer clay, I like to stream myself creating my art on social media platforms. My work is flexible and will be able to make sure your pet is given daily walks if needed, make sure they have a loving calming environment. If your pet requires walks, we have lots of places that are suitable, the cuckoo trail and other country walks are very close by. I have a garden, with established plants, lawn area, walled on and fenced, it's a very secure area. The side gate to the garden that is kept locked but gives easy access after walks, the single back to the house, will help your pet feel secure. Plenty of shaded areas if your pet likes being outside more in. There is one tree that over hangs the garden and outer sheltered pathway.

Georgia had echo for his first daycare stay today! I had a full and detailed handover from Georgia, echo who is usually bouncing around when I see him after work was very calm. He made himself very comfortable and at home on the sofa, I had photos through the day and he seemed like he had a great day! Will be booking for his permanent daycare with Georgia and I feel very happy to know he’s being well cared for and exercised well on his stay. 10/10 thank you so much..
Once again, Audrey had a great time with Monika on Boxing Day. She was very happy when we picked her up and even made a new furry friend with another dog that was staying. Audrey doesn’t always get on with other dogs so to see her so relaxed and calm after the day with another dog was amazing to see. Monika is brilliant and Audrey can’t wait for her next stay 😊
Our dear Riley was so content when we collected him after his day with Hayley and Kevin. He was clearly treated with love and as part of the family. Riley will be visiting again soon for a weekend sleepover and we feel completely confident and happy leaving him in their capable and caring hands. We definitely recommend Hayley and Kevin. Thank you so much! 💛✨🐶✨💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Eastbourne on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,122 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Eastbourne. About 86% of Eastbourne 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 Eastbourne 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 South East 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.
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.
