“Lemmy had a great time staying with Elisabetta and her family. Especially with Zoe, their beautiful Weimaraner. Lemmy was a bit wary of her to start with, but by a couple of days later they were sleeping in the same bed! Elisabetta sent me lots of pictures, so I knew that Lemmy was being well looked after. He'll definitely be going back to stay with Elisabetta, and Zoe”
“Maisie had a great stay and walks with Michelle . I was really confident leaving Maisie with her . I got photos and videos of their activities and her knowledge of dogs and training techniques and care was a bonus . I will continue to use Michelle for boarding and weekly walks . Made my time away from Maisie easier .”
“First time we have left Buster and he was fine. Kirsten sent regular photos and updates which was so nice. She also collected and dropped him off. Such a lovely person would definitely use again. Highly recommend”
“Fantastic doggy sitter with lots of photos and videos to put your mind at ease that your pup is happy. They took Teddy on several walks a day too. Great communication and the whole family clearly love dogs! Thank you Lenka.”
“Great host! My dog Skye was well looked after. Pictures and updates sent of her out and about and relaxing at the home. I would definitely recommend and seek to send my dog on her holiday here.”
About: We’ve had dogs in our family since I can remember. Big Rottweilers, fluffy Alsatians, bouncy spaniels, snuggly Staffies and cheeky Jack Russell terriers. I’m a big walker so happy to be as active or relaxed as your doggy dictates. I work flexibly from home full time. I can offer toilet breaks as often as required. And as many or as few walks needed. Pets are welcome on the furniture here! I have an unfenced garden but I understand security is the most important element. I’ll ensure your pet is able to get outside for walks or the bathroom whenever they need. And if they don’t show signs I’ll be observant and ensure they can be outside as frequently as required.
“Would highly recommend Craig who looked after our German shepherd for 5 days. He was well walked and played with too. He was thoroughly spoiled by Craig and his wife. Craig also kept us updated with photos on their walks etc which reassured us. Would definitely ask Craig to look after our dog again !!”
“First of all I would like to thank Paul for looking after hondo with no notice he is a star. we had a wedding to attend and the family members let us down with a few days warning but we contacted several other dog boarding services only to be left disappointed. I gave up the search thinking we had wasted money on a hotel as it would require overnight stay to enjoy the wedding in stead of rushing home or me or the wife would have to dress straws to see who was going so I decided to give it another go online and that when I came across the rover app which had saved the day. The put me in touch with Paul and he has been brilliant. I would recommend him to all my family and friends without any hesitation. Hondo took to him instantly and made himself at home as soon as we dropped him off.Paul has a great personality and he loves his role looking after dogs which we could see when he met Hondo.we will always be grateful to him for helping us in an emergency and I do appreciate his willingness to help us out with such short notice he is a star and as for Hondo a think he would agree. If you need your dog looking after would recommend Paul 5 stars from Jack/ Lisa/ and of course HONDO woof woof x”
“This was our first time using rover and needed someone last minute due to family circumstances. I can't thank Steph and Struan enough for taking amazing care of our boy Hank for the short notice that they met us. I messaged Steph with information on our boy Hank and explained the situation. We arranged to meet couple of days later for Steph and Struan to meet Hank. Hank settled very quickly at their home and had roll about the carpet, he was very happy to speak to them both. We left Hank with Steph and Struan for 9 nights, we had daily updates and pictures which kept our minds at rest and seen he was looked after with lots of love, care and attention ❤️ They were very accommodating for his care needs and the medication he needed on a daily basis. Hank loved cuddling up with Steph on her new computer chair and with Struan on couch. Seeing Hank so settled was very comforting for us and would highly recommend Steph again xx”
“Pam took excellent care of my boy Max while away for the weekend. Max adored her and had a great weekend in her care. Pam kept me updated on how he was and I received lots of amazing photos of the fun he was having. I felt totally at ease knowing he was happy and in the best care. Thank you so much Pam I really appreciate it. Sure Max will love to come back and stay another time! X”
“Lyndsay was absolutely fantastic, kept me up to date with pictures, highly recommend, oreo and mable are like babies to me so i found it extremely difficult finding someone to care for them in a way that i do, knowing that they were being cared for and loved was a massive reassurance, thank you so much lyndsay”
About: I sadly lost my Rottweiler last year & still find it’s too soon to get another dog but have been dog sitting friends & familys pooches. I know owners will be nervous leaving your pooch but your dog will have my full attention as am at home all day so happy to go on little walks to adventures to simply play time in the garden or snuggles on the couch every dog is different I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, I treat every pet like it’s my own — with kindness, respect, and lots of snuggles. Whether it’s a long walk, a cosy cuddle session, or just making sure your pet feels safe while you’re away, I’ve got you covered I currently work from home so can cater to your dog needs from plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime in the house or fenced garden, to short or long walks
“At 11, it's the first time I have used a homeboarder for my wee girl Tilly, she had a ball plenty of walks and cuddles constant updates to reassure me of her wellbeing would use Lisa 100% again”
About: I gained a deep love for dogs by growing up with them and learning the responsibility of pet ownership. I've loved taking care of them, learning how to train them and observing their behaviours. I'm an advocate on positive re-enforcement as a form of training, giving dogs lots of attention but also being aware when dogs need space/rest. I also love the affection and play that can come from dogs. The two dogs in my profile are Pepper (Black Spaniel) and Milo (The handsome springer) they belong to close friends and family. I help look after these two regularly overnight or for a number of days with Daily walks and regular toilet breaks. I tend to be working from home around 8am - 4pm. When looking after dogs this means I can easily pop out for bathroom breaks and I tend to spare 30mins in the day for a short walk in the park nearby. I like the company and like giving them attention between times of focus. I'm not meeting heavy so get up from my desk often. I make sure they have a comfortable save space to be in. Not too close to windows or disturbances so they can rest. Nothing is left out that they might try and chew or play with. Between periods of work I'll play and check in on them, making sure they have fresh water.
“Leigha (along with her husband Jacob, daughter Rosie, and their lovely pack of hounds) took incredible care of my two Kelpies, Cúci (7 years) and Ruadh (10 months), during a 48-hour stay this week. From the moment we arrived, it was clear they were in a calm, experienced, and dog-loving home. Leigha kept me updated with thoughtful messages, videos and photos, which really reassured me, especially since Ruadh is still a pup and full of energy. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for - the younger one especially seemed to benefit from the social time with their dogs. They even shared some super helpful tips on behaviours they’d noticed in my rescue puppy, which I’ve already started putting into practice. Their setup - both the house and garden - is exceptional, offering plenty of space, safety, stimulation, and comfort. I only wish I lived nearby so I could use them every time I go away! It’s obvious this is a family who genuinely love animals and know how to manage different personalities and needs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again - thank you so much, Leigha and family!”
“Chris was wonderful with our dog Lucky. Leaving Lucky for a week during a sensitive time wasn't easy, but Chris gave us total peace of mind he kept us constantly updated, and Lucky had the best time!”
“We left Spud with Jenny overnight and received regular updates! Spud was clearly happy and settled within minutes of us leaving him and he was very well looked after! We will be booking with Jenny again when we are next looking for a sitter - 5 stars from us and Spud.”

This is the second time Jax has stayed with Craig & Kirsty and as usual he thoroughly enjoyed himself. Over the 14 days we had numerous updates and photos of him which put our minds as ease knowing he was being so well cared for. The care that Craig has given Jax is 1st class and we would have no hesitation recommending or using him again 🐾
Well what can I say....a fantastic home boarder and person I knew right away my dogs were with someone who loved dogs. Can't fault Niamhs updates when we were away with pics and updates. A fantastic home boarder and someone you can trust with your fur babies...Buddy and Bonnie will definitely be visiting again.
Michele was just wonderful with our two boys. From the start to the finish I had full confidence in her professionalism and dedication to the well-being of dogs and that her care would be excellent. She puts real thought into every aspect of boarding pets. Also, her warmth and the regular pictures and status updates confirmed that our pups were not only in good care, but also loved! Highly recommend.

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 1,650 sitters in Falkirk, 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.

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.
