“Orla and Aine were fantastic sitters for Luna, I can tell that she had such a good time. We met for a meet and greet before her stay so they could get a quick introduction and they made sure to follow Luna’s routine as closely as possible to make her stay comfortable for her. They asked plenty of questions to get things right for Luna and took her to her favourite places for her walks. I would definitely book with them again and recommend to anyone looking for reliable dog sitters!”
“Highly recommend mark & Sandra. Matilda stayed 4 nights and mark kindly kept me posted of her stay. Even sharing a wee video. Lovely couple and I felt at ease leaving my wee frenchie. Thank you & I will certainly use them in future. Liz”
“Dane and his wife were wonderful dog-sitters. We were nervous as it was the first time we had left our dog with anyone but they took such good care of him and their communication was excellent. Highly recommended!”
“Very highly recommended. Our dog stayed with him for a few days. Unfortunately he was sick just before and sitter took care of him really well. Very reliable gentlemen was on time, polite and dependable. Took instructions well and updated us on our dog every day, multiple times with text and photos. I don't think our dog wanted to come back.”
“Milena did an amazing job of looking after our Ivy. She clearly knows dogs very well and Ivy has come home relaxed and happy. Communication was great and everything went very smoothly. We will definitely be looking to book again!”
“Dean was very easy to deal with and happy to fit in with Alfie’s existing routine. Alfie seemed to enjoy his short stay & relaxed into belly rubs and playing and for an anxious dog that was a big win! I would recommend Dean & will use his service again *****”
“Alfie has just stayed with Sakshi for the first time for two nights while we went away. I’m quite sure he didn’t want to come home when I went to pick him up! He was a very happy dog and had clearly had a lovely calm and relaxing time with Sakshi and Ash. It was all a bit last minute (our fault!) and Sakshi was brilliant with communicating and organising. We went for a meet and greet visit which made us feel very confident about leaving Alfie with her. Sakshi kept up updated throughout and we’d be very happy to leave Alfie with her again. Highy recommended 😊”
“Thanks Anna for taking great care of Joy while I was away. I highly recommend Anna, she is reliable, gives regular updates, is accommodating and I felt that I could relax knowing that Joy was been taken care of well.”
“Charlie had a wonderful time with Paula. At the meet and greet she made sure she had all the information about socialising and medication. I received regular updates during the booking and collected a very happy dog at the end of it. My one concern was how Charlie would get on with her dog as he is not used to living with other pooches. I need not have worried as Billy was as welcoming as Paula.”
“Sara was a wonderful host for my dog Frisa for a few days while I visited Glasgow for a hospital procedure. Sara had a strong intuitive grasp of Frisa's needs and wants. Sara's descriptions and photos sent to me during Frisa's time with Sara matched my own experiences of Frisa's behaviour when engaged and contented. Frisa is a medium sized, but strong, dog and Sara paid careful attention to the advice that we gave her about handling Frisa on walks. I thoroughly recommend Sara.”
About: I grew up around dogs, my grandparents and family friends had dogs and I was often tasked with walking them growing up. Work and study commitments prevented me having my own, but I work from home now so am around during the day for constant supervision and regular play and toilet breaks. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I would of course contact you immediately and seek emergency vetinary services. Happy to discuss your pet-sitting needs, drop me a message. I would be happy to take more than one dog depending on the case. I work from home so am flexible for park walks and toilet duties. I am happy to work around the owners set schedule, if they for example get out for early morning walks I'm happy to maintain this routine I have a one-bedroom flat, so space is limited but I have more than enough room for small dogs or cats. I have bedding, treats, toys and am available all day to supervise
“I would definitely recommend Ioana. She provided a calm environment for our dog who can be anxious at times and kept us updated with videos and photos so I had peace of mind while being away.”
“Alice was great with Bruno during his stay. This was the first time we left our dog to stay with someone else, and Alice was very reassuring, gave us regular updates and sent us photos. We are very happy with the care Bruno received and we are going to rebook with Alice in the near future.”
“From the first meet to the boarding was reassuring and professional. Would not hesitate in leaving my dog with Kiera again. Odin had everything he needed and more. regular photos and updates of you pets stay was also a nice touch.”
“Ryan was completely brilliant. Very responsive. We met the evening before and chatted through Fergus’s day. Lots of updates during his time with Ryan and happy pup at the end of the day. What more could you want? Really grateful to Ryan for making this easy.”
“First time leaving coco with anyone except family and I could not have picked someone better. Danielle was wonderful with him and very understanding, I will definitely be a return customer.”
“Chaos had a great time with Amy , would recommend to anyone got photo updates and a msg to let me know how she was doing Amy is a lovely person and I will be sure to use again thank you for having my fur baby”

Shivani was the perfect sitter for our 5 year old cocker spaniel. When I returned to pick up Hudson, he was clearly that comfortable with his stay that he tucked himself into the corner of the room as he didn't want to leave - testament to Shivani's care over the 9/10 days. Shivani kept us up-to-date with messages and photos throughout the duration of his stay which was great as we could show the kids updates whilst we were on holiday. I have 100% comfort to leave Hudson with Shivani again in the future. I couldn't recommend Shivani enough.
I couldn’t have asked for a better person than Belen to look after our baby Bramble. This was my first time using Rover so very wary. Belen sent me pics and videos every other day of Bramble on walks and playing at home alongside her own dog. I could see Bramble was very happy and was being cared by how happy and relaxed she looked. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Belén again in the future.
Alfie has just stayed with Sakshi for the first time for two nights while we went away. I’m quite sure he didn’t want to come home when I went to pick him up! He was a very happy dog and had clearly had a lovely calm and relaxing time with Sakshi and Ash. It was all a bit last minute (our fault!) and Sakshi was brilliant with communicating and organising. We went for a meet and greet visit which made us feel very confident about leaving Alfie with her. Sakshi kept up updated throughout and we’d be very happy to leave Alfie with her again. Highy recommended 😊
I was terrified about leaving my dog. In 4 years, he hadn't been with anyone other than myself and 2 trusted people from the family. Cathie and Daniel were understanding and kind from the get go, but they truly went above and beyond my expectations when it came to Frankie's care. They've now lifted a massive weight off my shoulders and, after nearly two years, I finally have someone that I trust to look after my boy and I can consider travelling again!
Couldn’t say enough positive things about Maria…such excellent communication, lots of photos of her spoiling dougie with lots of fun walks, games and plenty of love. Can tell he had the best holidays with her and I would recommend Maria to absolutely everyone. Thank you again Maria ❤️
Nune is the most fantastic dog sitter. She took amazing care of my 6 month old Maltese puppy, attended to all his needs with genuine care and love. Nunu is very professional in every aspect of pet sitting, including great communication throughout my puppy’s stay with her. My puppy was so happy with Nunu and her sweet doggy girl called Maki whom he also adored playing with. My puppy can’t wait to have the best holiday away with Nunu and Maki again! 💕
Darren and Julie were absolutely amazing with Rory! We booked in last minute to have Rory looked after while we were on holiday. Communication was fantastic. Loads of photos throughout the week showing Rory very much at home and enjoying himself. Even though it was a last minute booking they made sure to meet up first so they could get to know Rory and find out information about him. He very much loved his own wee holiday. We’d highly recommend Darren and Julie and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again! 🙂
Sophie was absolutely fantastic with Reo. I was apprehensive leaving him but Sophie made me feel at ease. She took reo to the beach which he loves & he looks like he had the most fun time with lots of photo updates which I appreciated immensely. I will be using Sophie’s service again soon. Thank you so much 💕 xx
When we met Holly for a meet and greet walk she asked all the right questions I would expect of someone taking on a new dog. This was very reassuring. Holly kept us fully updated throughout the stay along with photos showing Keeva having a ball. I would definitely use Holly again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog boarder.
We had a perfect experience with Roisin looking after our boy while we were away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Ozzie is usually quite nervous with new people, but we could tell from the updates that he warmed to Roisin so quickly, which really says it all. It was clear from every update that he was happy, well cared for, and getting lots of love and attention. Knowing he was in such good hands meant we could fully relax and enjoy our holiday. We’d happily book with Roisin again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. PS, I think Ozzie misses you already! xx THANK YOU xx
First time using Rover and couldn't be any more pleased with Alice. We did the meet and greet beforehand then dropped Jock off for his short stay. Alice sent photos and updates showing he'd settled in and was happy. Would definitely use Alice's services again. She has a secure garden, 2m fence all around which was important for us too. Thank you Alice and Miguel from Jock and us ❤️
Gavin looked after Roxy for 11 nights for us. It was the longest we have ever been away from her and missed her a lot, but Gavin kept us up to date with photos and videos. It was clear she loved her time with Gavin and is looking forward to spending time with him again! Thanks again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Glasgow on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 964 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Glasgow. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Finding the right boarding environment is all about peace of mind. Boarding with a sitter on Rover helps you find a cosy experience in a real home for your dog.
When searching for a host, look for a sitter who:
- Offers a secure, home-like environment that is clean and welcoming
- Adheres to your dog’s established routine for meals, activity, and rest
- Possesses relevant experience with your pet’s specific breed, size, and personality
- Maintains clear communication regarding the frequency of photo and message updates
Don’t skip the Meet & Greet! The free Meet & Greet is the best way to see where your dog will sleep and who they might play with.
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.
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 Scotland 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.
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
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 .
