Here’s a warm, polished review you could post: We needed someone to look after Rupert due to a change in our work commitments, and we’re so glad we found Olivia. Olivia was absolutely fantastic with Rupert. It was clear from all the photos and videos that he had an amazing time and really enjoyed spending time with both Olivia and Jasper too! Seeing how happy he was throughout the day gave us complete peace of mind. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and Olivia kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos. They really made me smile during my workday and reassured me that Rupert was having the best time. Thank you so much, Olivia, for taking such great care of Rupert. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.

About: Friendly, Responsible & Caring - Here for your Home-Sitting, Dog Walking & Pet-Caring peace of mind & needs! I am a 48 year old, professional female, with my own location-free business. My life and lifestyle means that I can be anywhere in the world, and take breaks whenever I can and choose. I love adventure, am used to adapting to new people and situations (I've lived and traveledin many countries), and love new experiences. :) I have come back to the UK after having returned to the US in 2018, and previously lived in the UK from 2002 to 2016 - and spent close to 4 1/2 years travelling around Europe, the US and UK, primarily while house and pet-sitting for home owners and their families. I am here to help you - to give you assurance and peace of mind as YOU travel and experience new things, too! I am here to be of service as you vacation, holiday and take time away! (**A quick note to please ensure you let me know any house rules at the start of each house sit position - I will remember to ask as well! - to save any potential misunderstandings that could lead to difficulties :) ) Any questions, please don't hesitate to let me know and get in touch. I thank you for your time and look forward to being a part of your home and pet-sitting needs! Why I want to house sit I have been home and pet sitting professionally since 2015 (and taking care of fur babies far longer :) ), and love every single new experience and opportunity that comes. I love the chance to see new and interesting places, as well as have city adventures near where I already live when those arrive also. I love the flexibility and chance to be of help and support to beautiful people (like you!) as well as their pets if they have any. (I am mildly allergic to cats, so consider assignments with cats on a case by case basis - I can take allergy medicine as needed, too.) I'm very happy to pet-sit and care for most animals during assignments - having grown up with family dogs, I also greatly miss having my own!) I am lucky in that my work affords me the time and flexibility to travel more, also, which means house-sitting and pet-sitting is a perfect accompaniment to it all. Anything I can do to also help YOU with peace of mind and assurance, so that you can just enjoy yourself and RELAX :) while you are away means the world. It's a win-win, for all of us and both sides, really! My experience Having grown up with pets I also miss not having my own - I look forward to being a caring friend and caregiver to yours, if you have them, while you are away at work, vacation and holiday, or during the day. I'm glad to take on local dog walking opportunities, for instance, and am very happy to assist with health care, medicine and so on if they need anything continued while you are away. (I also have dog obedience experience, and so am very happy to continue up any routine you have for the animal's consistency.) I am additionally very happy to help with any light household duties or gardening needs, so you can rest easily knowing those will also be taken care of for you. I have some Spanish and French speaking skills, and also greatly love the opportunity to test and strengthen my language knowledge. Therefore, non-English speaking locations will not be a problem for me, and I welcome and get excited with the opportunity when available! A responsive and responsible person, I am also very happy to give regular updates if you'd like, on how things are going and/or if there is anything that comes up that needs your notice - such as bills or any important phone calls and so on. I am very happy to assist with references should you like any, in addition to those on my profile here. When house and pet-sitting, I am able to give pets bathroom breaks as often as the owners wish. I have put in that I can do so every 0-2 hours, however I am happy to amend this to whatever you rather! I greatly appreciate your time, attention and consideration of me with and for your house and pet-sitting needs, and am here to help should you have any thoughts or questions you'd like help with. Thank you!! :) I work from home, and so as long as I have access to wifi, I can be anywhere in the world! This means that I can also be there for your home and furry loved ones - and be their substitute family while you are away! I house and pet sit in your home. This means that I'm able to give loving, responsible care for your home and fur babies - just like you! I replicate your routine, send you regular updates with photos, and give your furry loved ones the VERY best in fun, love and care! (Along with your home!!) All so that YOU can rest, relax and enjoy your time away - knowing all your loved ones are safe, loved and well cared for... For them AND you!!!

Its so wonderful having a warm loving home for my darling Lulu to go to when I'm away with work. Odeta is so good with her; Lulu's always so happy to see Odeta when she arrives. Pictures and videos throughout the day assure me Lulu's walked, cuddled, fed, and gets lots of attention and play time. Odetas home will be for sure, a place for Lulu for a long time to come 🙏🥰

About: Professional dog walker now for the past 3 years. Dog mummy for 20 years. With a great love for outdoors. I intend to breach out and become a dog behaviourist in the near future. I’m offering dog walking/ sitting/ boarding and daycare. Any questions feel free to contact me :) I’m currently working as a professional dog walker so your pet will fit right in here, if your dog doesn’t like these activities thats fine as I can offer alternatives. I have a fenced garden which your fur baby has full range of. I do professional dog walking also so if your dog is happy with other dogs they will come with us if not that’s fine I also do country park walks. I love local to Colwick woods also Gedling county park so we will go and explore that together. I’m dedicated in helping my clients so if your dog is reactive towards other dogs or extremely bad (pulling) on the lead, I have the time and patience to help break them habits.

About: Since moving out, I’ve really missed having my family dog around, so I love any opportunity to spend time with a new furry friend! Whether it’s walks, playtime, training, or plenty of cuddles, I’m always happy to give dogs the attention and care they deserve. I work from home most weekdays, which means your dog will have lots of company, supervision, and flexibility in their routine throughout the day. I grew up with dogs and have always been very comfortable understanding their different personalities, needs, and behaviours. I’ve looked after a wide range of breeds and sizes, from small dogs to very large breeds. At the moment I regularly care for a Cockapoo, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and even a Great Dane, so I’m confident handling dogs with very different temperaments and energy levels. I’m patient with puppies and young dogs who are still learning, and I’m happy to reinforce basic training, routines, and good habits. I’m also attentive and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra care, or medication. Above all, I’m responsible, calm, and genuinely love being around dogs. I’ll always treat your dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after. My home feels far too quiet without a dog around! I currently work from home in a flexible role, allowing me to provide care and attention to pets during weekdays. I can schedule walks/playtime/drop ins during breaks and lunch. I am also available in evenings and at weekends. I provide safety for pets in their own homes by ensuring i have a clear understand of the pets needs and the owner’s instructions. I engage with the pet to build trust and strengthen my bond with them.

About: We are a loving happy household. There is myself, husband and our son who is 10. We have a cat called Rey who is 6 years old, she is confident around dogs and best friends with our lovely dog, Spencer who is 4 years old. We would love to welcome dogs into our home to give Spencer some company and give you reassurance that they will be well looked after! I work from home apart from when I have to travel to Manchester every 2 or 3 months for 1 day. We walk Spencer in the evenings and occasionally during a lunch break if he can be bothered! At the weekends we always try and take Spencer with us if go out places, but other than that we are at home and take him for nice walks. We have a large outdoor space which is fully fenced, with even a separate gated garden too. The main garden gate is double locked so no one can access from the drive. When it's not raining the patio doors are open most the time so there is also access to the outside. We have air con for when it's really hot and allow access to every room and sofa!

About: Currently have gorgoeus golden retriever called Peggy who loves a play date. I can provide stability, fun, rules and routine daily walks. I have a large garden for frequent toiletry requirements. Class me as a holiday home! I currently work from home and enjoy the company of animals. I go for daily walks at 11am and can walk multiple times if required. Animals are welcome on all furniture because of equal rights. I have a large garden that is fenced and will not be able to escape. Feeding will not be an issue as Peggy knows the rules.

About: Hello, We are a family of five, with a 14-year-old and 5-year-old twins. Dogs have always been a big part of our family. I (Louis) grew up with our family dog, Bruno, and both my mum and sister have dogs of their own, Ed and Stan, who we spend lots of time with. My partner, Ellie, also grew up with several dogs, including Stanley, Macca and Lola, and her family currently has Rufus the Dachshund. We're absolutely ready to give all our love and care to a dog of our own. However, as Ellie and I are currently in the early stages of launching our own businesses, we've decided that caring for other people's dogs is the best fit for us right now. It allows us to enjoy spending time with dogs while making sure we can give them the attention and care they deserve. We'd love the opportunity to look after your dog and look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Louis, Ellie, Theo, Marcie & Daphne Pet care fits naturally into our routine. Ellie and I both work flexibly while building our own businesses, so we're able to plan our days around a dog's needs. Daily walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention would all be part of our schedule. As a family, we also enjoy spending time outdoors, so any dog staying with us would get lots of exercise, company, and affection throughout the day. We treat every dog as if they were our own. We'll always follow the owner's routine for feeding, walks, medication (if needed), and any house rules to help them feel comfortable and settled. Whether in our home or yours, we'll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and exercise, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you know they're happy and well cared for. Our garden has fences on 2 sides and a bush on the other. Dogs are able to get through with some persistence but we just put dogs on a lead when sniffing around or going to the toilet. No incidents to date.

About: My boyfriend and I both grew up with family dogs, and ever since moving in together had our own dog. We trained her via doggy school since she was a little pup and took her on many adventures that went as far as moving to the UK with her. We regularly looked after our families dogs as well when they went away on holiday. We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our little girl recently due to age. While we are looking for our next sweetheart, we have an abundance of love, walks and empty spots on the sofa for your furry friend! I work from home, but I occasionally have to travel for work and my partner is only 10 minutes away - both with flexible hours. This allows us to plan our days around your dogs needs! We live less then a minute walk from a big park and can easily go for multiple walks a day if they’re up to it. We also have a fully enclosed garden with space for running around. We’re flexible with your dogs needs, whether they require a crate to sleep in, prefer to sleep on the couch or on their doggy bed, just let us know. Near the end of her life, our dog became blind with different health issues. Going through this gives us experience to also take care of (senior) dogs who have a complex medical history. We have full flexibility for how we plan our working days. Whether we wake up early to go for a walk before breakfast, use our lunch break, or swap our evening sports for a long walk, we will adjust based on your dogs usual routine. With our enclosed garden, there’s plenty of playtime opportunities as well! In the weekend, we are able to make sure one of us is at home for most of the day if required. The garden is spacious and dog friendly. The house has enough room to place the dog’s personal bed or crate if needed. They are more then welcome to join us (and sleep) on our sofa as well. Feeding and walking are arranged to what they are used to, no matter how many times a day. Different medical routines are easily incorporated - experience with eye drops as well as regular pills.

Fantastic service! Super professional, adaptable and built a really positive relationship with my dog. Really helped me during a very busy week and the stress was massively reduced knowing my dog was in such good hands. Plenty of walks, stimulation and rubs! Would highly recommend and will certainly use again in the future.

Emily was brilliant with Bathsheba. She was lovely and set me at ease. We did a meet and greet the week before and she asked all about what Bathsheba needs and what she enjoys. She is a bit restricted at present due to an injury and also can get over excited. Emily took this all into account and also let me know Bathsheba was doing ok during her stay. Emily and her partner are experienced with dogs and I was confident Bathsheba was safe and happy during her first stay. She would love to go back.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Gedling

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gedling on Rover is £27.6 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 953 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Gedling. About 85% of Gedling 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 Gedling 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 Midlands 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 .
