“Our little staffie Mia had the best time with Kirsty. She was cared for incredibly well, walked daily and Kirsty also sent us lots of pictures. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again. You won’t find anyone better. Once again, thank you”
“Jack was absolutely brilliant with our cocker spaniel. He put my mind at rest when we visited and Red settled at his house immediately. We got daily updates and photos, showing Red was having a great time with him. He clearly knows how to deal with looking after other people's pets with patience, understanding and knowledge. I highly recommend him and Red can't wait for our next trip away.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Luke and the care he gave to Lola during her recent boarding stay! From the very beginning, communication was excellent — quick updates, photos, and videos throughout the visit gave me total peace of mind. It was clear that Lola felt right at home. She got plenty of walks, cuddles, and playtime, and came back to me happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Luke to anyone looking for a caring and reliable boarder. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Anca was so friendly on first arrival. She was so reassuring with me and my dog both being pretty anxious as she never stays out she kept me updated with pictures and text messages from the minute we left! Would definitely use anca again! One happy dog owner 🤩🤩🤩🤩”
“I left my puppy, Panther, with Helena and was a bit nervous at first since I’d never done this before or used the website. But Helena was fantastic! She sent me regular updates and photos, and I could tell Panther was really happy and well cared for. It was also super easy to message her if I had any questions or worries. I’m so glad I chose Helena, she did such a great job looking after Panther. I’d definitely recommend her!”
“Emma provided the perfect stay for Pippa, our Yellow Labrador. Pippa was very relaxed with all of Emma's lovely family. Pippa settled in quickly and was taken for some long walks. We received several photos of Pippa so we could see how settled and happy she was. It was also evident that Emma and her family enjoyed looking after Pippa! We highly recommend Emma and will definitely use her service again.”
“Claudia and the family were outstanding. The space is a dream for any dog. Super safe and brilliant for dogs who love the outdoors. Regular communication and really helped me out with a last minute request. 10/10”
“This was the first time leaving my dog with a complete stranger for an overnight stay, but I needn't have worried as Dougie had a fabulous time being well looked after by Gemma, which allowed me to have 4 stress-free nights away. Will definitely use Gemma again.”
“Thank you so much for looking after Tessa. She had a lovely time and as soon as she met Sophie she looked happy. Sophie kept me up to date with pictures and Tessa looked happy and relaxed in all of them. I would definitely recommend Sophie and would have her pet sit Tessa again in the future:-)”
“I just want to say huge thank you to Megan for looking after my 8 year old Beagle. I felt so happy for finding such a great pet sitter. They all had a good time together and I had nothing to worry about. It was an amazing experience. I will definitely reach out again when needed :)”
“Dannielle was brilliant with or old Lab Rufus. He settled in immediately and we felt very happy that he would be loved and cared for while we were away. I'm not sure he missed us at all! Highly recommended!”
“Hannahs communication was great and we received daily pictures from her to put us at ease as this was the first time using Rover. Reggie was happy to stay with her and her family which was a great comfort.”
“So happy we chose Ruth to look after Alfie. A lovely, friendly lady who obviously enjoys what she does and most importantly, we've picked up a happy healthy dog - who just wanted one more game of Frisby with her before coming home! Will definitely use Ruth again.”

About: I’ve taken care for pets for over 4 years now. This first began working in our family run pet shop and later developed in to me starting my own boarding service. I have grown up around animals all my life and have always loved spending time are them and caring for them. I am a boarder full time so as long as I have availability when you want to book in, I am available daily and at all hours. I ensure that I spend a great deal of time with your pets when staying with them in your homes, making sure they are comfortable and have the company they need.

I am self employed and prepared to adjust my schedule to pet care. Working from home. Fully prepared to adjust. I am a proud mama of one dog that loves everybody, so no problem here. I live in a house that is fully fenced. Lots of walking paths and fields around. No rain or snow can stop us to go out.

Jack was great with our two dogs (lab and cocker). They had a great time and quickly looked like they were at home. They got plenty of walks/exercise and clearly bonded quickly with Jack! We got lots of updates of the fun they were having. Thank you Jack for your considerate and enthusiastic care of our boys!
We are so grateful to Ruth for taking care of Rolo and for keeping us updated on how Rolo was doing. It was clear to see that Rolo was having a great time and was able to be his usual cheeky self with her. Highly recommend Ruth. She’s so lovely and caring. Thanks Ruth!
Our gorgeous 5 month old Cavapoo Ned had his first overnight stay with Luke and Karolina. Their patience and care is 5 star. They sent regular updates which was lovely and made me feel reassured. They are a wonderful couple who beam how much they love animals. Ned will be going for 2 weeks and I feel relaxed and reassured he will be loved and cared for.
Caroline and Daniel did an excellent job of looking after our greyhound, Lacey. After our initial visit to see them, we felt that Lacey fitted in really well with the whole family and their own dogs as well as the other boarding dogs. Caroline sent us loads of updates and pictures whilst we were away and we were able to keep up to date with Lacey whilst on holiday. We will definitely be using them again and would thoroughly recommend to anybody else.
Lucy and her dog Hallie were absolutely amazing with our two dogs Honey the pug and Aslan the golden retriever. She sent regular updates with photos, made sure they had frequent walks and play time and brain stimulation with lick mats. Hallie is a gentle giant who has so much patience with other dogs and puppies who may not know all the boundaries yet! Thank you SO much for putting our minds at ease while we were away - we will definitely book with you again.
This was the 1st time we had left Braidy to go on holiday, so we were obviously a little apprehensive, but she has come home happy and contented, and has clearly loved being at Davina's! Thank you for taking such good care of Braidy! We would definitely be happy for her to be looked after by Davina in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kirklees on Rover is £34.5 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 2,711 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kirklees. 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 Yorkshire and the Humber 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 .
