“Max had a brilliant few days stay with Kirsty. She took him on lovely country walks, played with him in the garden, provided loads of stimulation, looked after him as if he were her own, snuggled with him, and coped with his boundless excitability and energy. We cannot thank her enough for providing a real home from home and looking after him so well. We were provided with loads of great photos of Max and lots of updates about what he was up to and how he was. We would not hesitate to thoroughly recommend Kristy’s services, and will definitely be back again next year.”
“My welshie had a great time with Michelle & Ronny; great updates and pics. My pup has slept since I’ve collected him - all the chasing and wrestling with Ronny (!!) who is such a lovely dog. Thank you Michelle.”
“Katy and Chris were fantastic! Ruby had such a good time while she stayed with them. She got on so well with her buddy Tiger their golden retriever. We felt very reassured throughout her stay because Katy was excellent at keeping in touch with us with pictures and updating us what they all got up to. Will definitely book again and highly recommend Katy and Chris for your furry friends :)”
“Amy was a wonderful pet sitter for our dog, Evie. She has a sweet disposition and was able to gain Evie’s trust quickly. Her two dogs have a very chill vibe and her house was perfectly set up to afford Evie a wonderful experience, from a fenced-in yard to comfy dog furniture— though Evie loved snuggling on the couch. Amy provided pictures and a text update every day so we always knew that Evie was doing well. I highly recommend Amy’s services as a pet sitter.”
“Our 8yo Cockapoo had a ball staying with Joanna. Her stay there was everything that you would want for your dog. Staying in a family home in the country with excellent walks around the area. Joanna was very switched on to the habits and routines of my dog and I was confident that I was leaving her in good hands. Joanna was also very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times.”

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 25 sitters in Galloway, 63% 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.
