“Fiona looked after my little Jack russel for 9 days whilst I was away on holiday. My dog was very well looked after - she was well walked, she kept up with the multitude of medicines and eye drops my dog is prescribed and also sent me regular updates and photos! Would definitely use her again, she was very friendly and very enthusiastic about having Mia around.”
“Raul and his family treated Archie as if he was their own pet. Lots of lovely updates during the stay showed us how well he was being looked after. Total peace of mind whilst away on holiday. Recommended”
“My labrador Masha really enjoyed staying with Sally and her family for the day. It was her first time staying with Sally and she fitted me in at quite short notice on Boxing Day. Great communication from Sally, she replied promptly to my messages and sent me photos and updates as to how Masha was doing so I could see she was a happy dog.”
“We did a trial night stay before his actual stay which he enjoyed & seemed to settle in quickly. It was like home from hime for him. Its clear Diane has a love for caring for dogs, Zeus loved the fuss. & attention. We will happily book her again to take care of our boy”

“Anna was fantastic - so kind and our dog obviously had a wonderful stay. A lovely home and family environment. We were sent updates and photos whilst away which were great to receive.

She was friendly, very communicative, and we knew we were leaving our girls in very safe hands 🐾🐶 Toki and Millie had a lovely time - we received regular pupdates, belly rubs and walks! Paris was also really accommodating when our return flight was delayed. We’d highly recommend Paris to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter. Thank you again”

“Susie was great, she took excellent care of our boy for 16 days.He loves her very much. Kingsley looked comfortable and happy from the start and he was looking very happy and well when I collected him today. Susie, take care of all my instructions and I really appreciate that, she and her family made Kingsley feel like he is in his own home. She spoiled him with long walks and cuddles, parks, family visits, updating me with videos and photos, so I was really relaxed while I was away. He had a small problem with his leg in his play with other dogs and immediately Susie informed me about the issue, ready with the proposal to take him to the vet. That reassured me that he is very well looked after. Thanks god that there was no problem and no needed doctor intervention. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of him🩷 I’m very thankful that I found you and that Kingsley loves you. We will definitely rebook with you in the future.🫶”
“Trish was lovely. Warm, welcoming, calm and obviously loves dogs. Our whippet was really well looked after and was even allowed to sleep under the duvet. True devotion.”
“We can really recommend Natalie to take care of your dog in her home. She updated us very often and informed how Zena was handling the very hot weather in the UK. I really like that Natalie is very relaxed and seems to understand dogs behaviour very well. Zena could sleep wherever she wanted and walked up for a cuddle with Natalie when I was picking her up which is a very good sign👍”

Elsie had a fabulous 2.5 weeks with Leana, Eliot & her new bestie, Maple. We missed her so much but with regular photos and updates we were confident and happy that she was having as good a holiday as we were! We will have absolutely no hesitation in booking again. Thank you!
Tyson was so well looked after by Annabelle and her family. Tyson is a unique character with his quirks and I wanted him to stay somewhere where I knew he would get the attention he would at home. We did a meet and greet with the family dog, Tyson settled well, we got daily pictures where I could see that he was enjoying his holiday and could see the big smile on his face! We’d definitely book with Annabelle again when we go away. Thank you so much for looking after Tyson and ensuring he enjoyed his holiday too!
Henrietta was absolutely wonderful! She was really communicative and went above and beyond to make sure she had everything she needed to keep Roswell happy and comfortable. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, which made me feel completely at ease. Roswell had a great time with her, and I’d happily recommend Henrietta to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!

Amelia was absolutely fantastic looking after our quirky dog, Coco, while we were away on a family holiday. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and took the time to understand Coco's unique personality, routines, and little quirks. Throughout our trip, Amelia kept us updated with messages and photos, giving us complete peace of mind that Coco was happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention and attection. It was obvious that Coco felt comfortable and relaxed in her care. We returned home to a very happy dog, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Amelia is reliable, caring, and professional, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to look after their beloved pet. Coco is looking forward to visiting again soon. ❤️
Thank you so much to Christina, Mark and Archie for the most amazing stay for Teddy. Saw loads of photos of him doing loads of swimming and early morning and evening walks in the hottest week of the year so far. Thank you for looking after him so well and it was lovely to meet you before hand for our little walk to chat about Teds and what he needs. He’ll definitely be back to see you. Thank you 🙏😍
Tom was an amazing sitter for Tobias. Very personable and a really great guy who cares a lot for looking after dogs. I cant recommend him enough! Took him on good walks and gave him a proper bath when he rolled in a muddy ditch. He was a very happy dog when we picked him up 😊
Susie and family always take incredible care of Edie, and make it feel like home for her. Susie is quick in all communications, and makes the whole process so easy. Edie absolutely adores the family and gets so much attention and love from them during her stay. The perfect balance of professional and loving, I’ll always go to Susie for when we’re away!

FAQs for Boarding - Elmbridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elmbridge on Rover is £40.25 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 15,530 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmbridge. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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.
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 .
