“Michelle welcomed our wee 4.5 month old Miniature Schnauzer puppy with open arms. She took note of his medical conditions and medication if it became necessary. She played with him alongside her adorable wee Yorkie boy called Ollie. She fed our boy, let him out at regular intervals and also walked him for 20-25 mins - all this in the space of 6+ hours, so she did so well with him. I would easily hire Michele again to look after our boy. Thanks Michele!! Top marks to you and also wee Ollie too!! ☺️⭐”
“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.”

“Sophie was absolutely brilliant with our Beagle Cooper. She looked after him so well…I don’t think he actually wanted to come home. She did everything we asked and more!

“Paul was so helpful when I enquired about a booking last minute and made me feel very comfortable about leaving Pablo in his care when dropping off. Paul kept us up to date with how Pablo was getting on and shared lots of great photos and videos. I could tell how well cared for Pablo was and wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future! Thanks again!”
“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”

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
“Hana was recovering from acute stomach inflammation and needed to take special meals and medication when she was sent in to Pam's. Pam was incredibly reliable and responsible in making special meals for Hana and feeding all kinds of tablets. She sent me photos everyday and Hana always looked very happy with her friends. Can't be more satisfactory and will definitely bring Hana in again.”
“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”
“I haven't had a holiday in 6 years for various reasons so was a little apprehensive leaving my two dogs albeit for a short break. I met with Addie and Derek and their two dogs a few weeks prior to going away. The visit went well and my two dogs were made very welcome. This reassured me and I looked forward to my holiday. During my break Addie kept me up to date daily with txts and pics of the girls where they looked very settled. Even when I collected the girls, Addie gave them treats home with them. I would highly recommend Addie and Derek and will have no hesitation booking with them in the future”
“Leigha and her family of humans and hounds were superb! They made our 2 dogs and ourselves feel very welcome and reassured at both the meet and greet and the handover/ collection. The updates with photos were really lovely. Leigha has a great knowledge of dogs and dog behaviours and can ‘read the room’ brilliantly, swiftly taking a range of approaches to soothing our nervous dog and make her feel secure. I would highly recommend Leigha and her family.”
“Bodhi loves staying with Zena and enjoys running about after Wallace and Snape like he’s known them forever! Zena and her husband are fantastic sitters and we wouldn’t have Bodhi anywhere else”

I couldn’t be happier with the care Tara received while staying with her dog sitter! ❤️ It was such a relief knowing she was in safe, loving, and caring hands. The sitter was absolutely wonderful, attentive, and made sure Tara was happy and well looked after throughout her stay. I really appreciated the care and attention given to her, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend this dog sitter to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring. I would definitely book again without hesitation. Thank you so much for taking such lovely care of Tara! 🐾💕

Riley had the most wonderful time with Niamh and her family. He was so well looked after, given loads of cuddles and welcomed as their own into the family. He had lots of walks in the woods and even a trip to his favourite cafe! Thanks so much Niamh for taking care of him so well. It gave us great reassurance that he was happy while we were away on holidays. Thanks, Eimear x

We had a fantastic experience with Susan. They took such great care of our dog and really went the extra mile to keep us reassured while we were away. We received daily updates along with photos, which made a huge difference and showed just how happy and relaxed our dog was. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. Communication was excellent throughout and we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. Would absolutely recommend Susan and will definitely be booking again.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Boarding. With 1,632 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.

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 , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
