“This was my puppy Daisy's first experience of being away from home and I couldn't have been happier with how well she was looked after by Sharon. She also looked after my other dog Coco who really enjoyed her day walking and playing ball. Overall my dogs were provided with excellent care throughout their stay and I would have no hesitation in booking with Sharon again.”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of different dog breeds, from labradors to chihuahua’s, cockapoo’s, terriers and dachshunds. I’ve owned cats & am well practiced at catering to their individual needs :) I live nearby a fen and lake so your dog will enjoy beautiful daily walks and lots of stimulation exploring and smelling new things in my neighbourhood. I also love taking them to play at Abbey Gardens and am happy to take them out in my car to Nowton Country Park (just 10mins away) or to the beach for days out. I have also completed 18 weeks dog behaviour training so can help support you with any lead training, commands and assist with crate training if required. Whatever your pets needs or preferences I’m happy to accommodate them. I provide a loving and affectionate family home from home experience so they will be treated like one of the family. I always encourage owners to bring whatever makes your dog or cat feel comfortable so they can have the best time possible, feel safe and happy staying with me and have a lovely experience. I’m available on a flexible daily basis including evenings and weekends, I will always do my best to accommodate your needs and times that suit you best.

I have attended 18weeks of dog behavioural training classes for puppies & junior dogs, I am an experienced handler, walker & very responsible sitter. I always aim to provide the best possible care for your pets needs and personality. I am well practiced at caring for both un-crated and crate trained dogs, I am also happy for them to sleep in the bedroom if this is their normal routine :) I always work to your dog’s routine and preferences so they’re happiest.
“Alix was fantastic with our 7 month old Dachshund bramble. We were sent photos and updates throughout the day and Alix was quick at responding both before and during brambles stay. Would definitely use Alix again ☺️”
“Amira loved her time with Inga & Bonnie. Amira is always scared around new people but she’s gotten used to Inga very quickly, which is great! Inga has been very patient with Amira’s constant demands to be petted.”
About: caring dog sitter based in Brandon. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and nothing makes me happier than helping dogs feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Now that I’m retired, I have all the time in the world to focus on the needs of the dogs I care for, giving them my full attention and a calm, steady presence. I live in a detached house with an enclosed, secure garden — perfect for small dogs to explore and play safely. Just a few yards from my home is a beautiful forest, ideal for peaceful walks, sniffing adventures, and gentle exercise. It’s a wonderful setting for dogs who enjoy nature and a quiet environment. My Experience I have a small dog of my own and have been caring for friends’ “fur babies” for many years. Many of them are now regulars who feel right at home with me. I’m confident with different personalities — from playful pups to gentle seniors — and I always adapt to each dog’s routine and comfort level. My Approach I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your dog’s routine consistent so they feel secure and settled. My goal is always to make your time away stress free, knowing your dog is in loving hands.What I Offer • Small dog sitting only (perfect for owners who want a calm, cosy environment) • Day care or overnight stays • Walks in the nearby forest • Feeding, routine care, and enrichment • A safe, quiet home with no small children • Regular photo and message updates • DBS checked for your peace of mind I’d love to learn more about your little one and how I can help.

About: We are a work from home family in Ely area with two cavalier king Charles spaniels and a house bunny. We frequently look after other people's dogs both in our home, taking them for walks and checking in on them in their own homes. We have experience with puppies and older dogs and welcome any breed. We both work from home so are very flexible and can make sure your dogs won't be left alone for too long. We have a 5 year old who loves animals and will enjoy giving your pet lots of extra playtime (if they would like it!) We both work from home so are always available to be home to care for your pets. We can do daily walks and frequent toilet breaks for the dogs. We have a fenced garden so there is a nice secure area for your dogs to go out and play. We have two very friendly cavaliers and a house bunny. The house bunny is caged or moved to a different room when other dogs come to stay.
About: I’ve lived with and looked after many pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals. I regularly look after my friends dogs, cats and other small pets. I have a passion for dogs and although I don’t currently have my own I regularly walk dogs daily with friends and/or family. I’ve helped train puppies and also spent time caring for elder dogs. I currently work for a company that produces smart devices for pets so I am very familiar with animals and the wants and needs required to look after them and their welfare. I work fully remote for a pet device company and regularly spend my spare time with my friends and families pets. I’m active and love walking, I have completed the Camino de Santiago and enjoyed every step. Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own I have pet beds, bowls and other toys etc as I regularly look after dogs at my house. I make sure my house is pet friendly and love to get to know every animal I pet sit. A part of forming a bond and making sure they are cared for is understanding the behaviours and habits they already have and keeping as routine as you can to keep them safe and happy. I’ve regularly pet sat at friends homes and always treat their animals and homes with love and care.

“Our 3yrs old Cocker Spaniel stayed with Ross and Clara for 2weeks during the Easter break. He seemed calm and happy every time Clara would send us videos and photos of him. Thanks to both Ross and Clara we spent our holiday with peace of mind.”

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Forest Heath
Freya offered a great day care service. She was very professional and very responsive at all times. She took special care with our elderly Beagle and extra paid attention to his set medication and meal times. She kept us updated throughout his stays with photos and took him on a nice walk with the other dogs in her group that day. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for doggy day care in the area.

There are 571 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Forest Heath. About 85% of Forest Heath 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 Forest Heath 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 East of 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. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
