This was so last minute and Helena responded instantly and saved me from missing a really important meeting! I was really impressed with how she kept in contact with me, giving updates and lots of pictures. She made me so comfortable throughout the process and Rocco didn’t want to leave at the end! Professional, attentive and so polite. Great experience, thank you!

About: Ive never known a life without dogs, they are a part of the family. I grew up with an energetic loving Beagle named Snoopy and now have a happy young Jackhuahua named Chico who enjoys lots of walks and cuddles. I believe all dogs are different in their own amazing ways and should be treated with nothing but love and respect (and plenty of treats!) Anyone who knows me will know I am a little bit obsessed with dogs, I've been known to cross many streets to pet the dog on the other side, because who would want to miss out on meeting a cute new dog? I work most weekends so am available during the week for any walks or checking in on your pets. I work most weekends, so have all the time in the week for walking, sitting or just popping in on your little fur babies when needed. I have one dog at home but he has another home nearby he can go to if your dog doesn’t like other dogs company! I have a large fenced in garden attached to a cricket field that is easily accessible for a quick walk. I’m also based near many scenic rural paths for those wanting longer walks.

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.

About: I have taken great care of dogs ever since I was very young surrounded by a dog loving family. I have owned dogs of varying size and temperaments of which I have trained since they were puppies and walked, fed and bathed them every day since. I work part time so my availability is pretty much open. I am available for boarding over the weekends and for walks any afternoons/evenings :) I will ensure all gates are secure and collar/leads are securely fastened. The doggies will be watched over 24/7 and will be in safe hands

About: Our lives truly revolve around dogs, and we wouldn't have it any other way! I am the proud parent of two incredible girls who bring absolute joy to our home: Penny, who I’ve raised and loved since she was a tiny puppy (she’s now nearly 6!), and Pearl, a beautiful soul we rescued in August 2025. Caring for them has given me deep, hands-on experience with different stages of a dog's life, from navigating the energetic puppy years with Penny to providing the patient, nurturing, and gentle care needed to help a rescue like Pearl blossom. Both of our girls are incredibly playful, and our household is entirely set up for fun, safety, and endless affection. When your pup stays with us, they won't just be 'looked after', they will be welcomed as part of the family, showered with attention, and given the exact same high standard of love and care that we give our own girls every single day. Because I work full-time from home and my partner is a firefighter working shift patterns, our house is rarely empty and we are fully available for boarding and sitting all week long! Dog care isn't something we squeeze into our day, it is the foundation of our daily routine. Your dog will seamlessly step into the structured, loving schedule we maintain for our two girls. A typical day here includes: Exercise: At least two dedicated walks a day to keep everyone happy and active. We live in a rural area surrounded by fields and long walks. Routine: Set breakfast and tea times, along with constant access to fresh water. Regular Breaks: Toilet breaks are given at least every 2 hours throughout the day. Since I am home all day, your pup will have constant companionship, regular stretches, and plenty of attention right alongside Penny and Pearl. Safety, comfort, and peace of mind are our top priorities. We have a large, fully fenced, and secure garden where dogs can play safely. Our kitchen and dining area features large bi-fold doors that look out onto the garden; when the weather permits, we love to leave these wide open to give the dogs complete freedom to roam between the house and the fresh air. We understand that every dog has different needs when it comes to feeling secure. Our home is spacious enough to accommodate your dog's specific habits, and I am more than happy to crate your dog whenever necessary for their comfort, meal times, or bedtime routine. With two friendly resident dogs and a highly secure, supervised environment, your fur baby will be safe, happy, and entirely at ease.

About: As lifelong dog owners, caring for dogs has always been a natural and rewarding part of our lives. We have experience providing a loving, safe, and attentive environment, understanding the importance of routine, exercise, and companionship for each individual dog. We are at home full-time, so there will always be someone present to give your dog the care and attention they deserve. Our two boys also adore dogs and are gentle, caring, and used to being around them. After recently losing our own beloved pet, we would love to open our home to care for other dogs while their owners are away, offering them the same affection, comfort, and reliability that we always gave our own. My husband Ryan will be providing care to your dogs also. I’m currently working part time but have lots of time to play and walk with your dogs there’s always someone available the house is not left unattended for long. My husband Ryan will also be caring for your dogs so they will have plenty of love. We have a fenced garden with a lock on the gate so your dog would feel secure and safe, they could use our home as if it was their own home and would be allowed on furniture and treat it as their own. We can also crate them if you would prefer

About: I’ve grown up with dogs as part of my family and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. As an adult, I’ve owned Rottweilers, Bedlington Terriers, Cavapoos and Labradors, giving me confidence with dogs of all sizes, energy levels and personalities. I’m experienced in calmly managing everything from reactive dogs to very relaxed, easy-going companions. I’ve completed extensive training for a variety of needs from reactivity to anxiety and basic obedience. Alongside caring for my own dogs, I regularly dog-sit for friends and family and have also supported elderly people in my local area by providing reliable, friendly dog walking services. I treat every animal with patience, respect and genuine affection, always prioritising their safety and wellbeing. 🐾 I work from home on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and I’m available for boarding from Wednesday to Sunday when I’ll be at home all day to give your pets my undivided attention 🤍 I prioritise safety, routine and comfort when caring for pets in my home or a pet owner’s home. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, taking time to understand individual needs, routines and triggers. Environments are kept calm, clean and secure, with careful management of doors, gates and lead protocols. When dogs board with me, they enjoy a securely fenced garden with space to roam, and access to nearby green spaces, fields and woodland for safe, enriching walks. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including reactive dogs, and use calm, positive handling to help every pet feel settled and secure. I treat every animal as if they were my own and provide regular updates for peace of mind. 🐾

About: Hi, we’re Annabelle & Chris! and we have had dogs around us ever since we were both little or born so we have always been around dogs, we absolutely LOVE them. We would even say they are better than people!! We’re used to all different breeds and sizes of dogs and no dog is ever too much to handle. We like to think we get a good sense of what a dog is like just from spending a short amount of time with them. We have also owned cats previously so we are super happy to offer a comforting friendly face for your furry friend. Rest assured, your dog is with genuine dog lovers. We can't wait to meet them! Me and Chris have decided to do this together, meaning we can offer extra support for your furry friends! Annabelle - I currently work full time from home so can offer your furry friend company all day long. I have 2 dogs of my own so I am used to the routine of getting up at 5:30am to give them a good walk, breakfast and playtime before starting work (from home) I then finish work and take them for another long walk in the evening followed by dinner and playtime in the garden or living room ( weather dependant) so they’re tired out before bedtime. Chris - has his own business so is also very flexible on when and where he can work. So there will always be someone available for your furry friend! If you’re like us, do you hate the thought of your pet being left alone for hours on end while you go out to work? Do you pay ridiculous costs just for someone to drop in and walk your dog for a short while? We are here to help! We are offering daycare, boarding, pet walking, all you’re pets needs! Our biggest objective is that your pet feels safe and always has company. I have a fully fenced and gated garden at our home address, so there will be no escapees. However before taking on any boarders we would be looking to offer dog walking, day care services, to get to know each pup personally and to make sure you and your beloved pup are comfortable and all needs are catered for. We personally like to know our dogs feel at ease when staying with someone and that we’re not leaving them with a stranger, this is the relationship we’d love to build with you and your furry friend!

About: I've had cats since the age of 3, and never stopped having them. Alongside many other pets of all shapes and sizes. I started helping out a friend with her dog sitting jobs and it's continued from there. I've dog sat and walked , cat sat and checked up on friends and clients pets. One off walks and regular walks. From small senior Jack Russell to two bounding golden retrievers. I've had a good few years of experience now to offer more services . I'm currently working part time so I have the time to schedule in walks, house sitting/pet sitting and call ins. I have one ongoing walk with a Jack Russell and would like to take on more pet care work. Depending on what the owner wants , whether it's a routine walk, a pop in or a stay over. I'm happy to do it all. Happy to follow instructions to make sure your babies are happy and calm. My cat is an outdoor cat but understand some prefer theirs to stay in. With dogs I can make sure they are well seen to and will make sure I know how long they don't mind being left alone. Can pop in to fill up water and food bowls or to let any out to use to toilet.

About: I’m experienced in caring for dogs and other small animals, and I hold a Diploma in Animal Care and Land‑Based Studies. I genuinely enjoy looking after both dogs and cats, and I have my own animals at home, so I understand how important it is to give pets the same level of care, patience and attention they’re used to. I’m reliable, calm and confident with different breeds and personalities, and I take pride in creating a safe, happy environment for every animal I look after. I fit pet care naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I already care for my own animals every day, so feeding, walking, playtime and general supervision are part of my normal schedule. I enjoy planning my week around giving pets consistent attention, keeping them happy, comfortable and well‑looked‑after. I provide a safe, calm, and welcoming home where pets are cared for with patience, routine, and genuine affection. I make sure their environment is clean, comfortable, and hazard‑free, and I always prioritise their wellbeing. Pets in my home are treated with kindness, consistency, and respect, so they feel secure, relaxed, and truly looked after.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog owner with many years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs. I currently have two small, friendly dogs of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with a much-loved member of the family. I’m patient, attentive and very happy to adapt to each dog’s individual personality and routine, whether that means leisurely sniff-filled walks, playtime, plenty of cuddles or simply some quiet company. I’m also comfortable caring for older dogs and dogs who prefer a gentler pace. Your dog’s safety and wellbeing will always come first, and I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking and care routines closely. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. My schedule is flexible, which allows me plenty of time to give your dog the attention and care they need. I’m available for regular or occasional walks, drop-in visits, doggy day care and overnight boarding. I’m happy to work around your dog’s existing routine wherever possible, including their usual walk, meal and rest times. I live with my partner Joe, who loves animals too and may occasionally help me with pets staying in our home. He is registered with Rover as an additional caretaker so your pet is always in safe hands. I have a secure, fenced garden and two friendly small dogs of my own. Any visiting dog would be introduced to them carefully, and I’m very happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’ll follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking and sleeping routines and any specific care instructions you provide. Dogs in mine and Joe’s care will receive plenty of attention and will always be treated as part of the family.

My young spaniel is very energetic,determined, and never settled. She started with Daniel on Friday and is a weekly booking for 2 days a week daycare. I was worried how she would settle as she would not go in her cage, nor toilet outside. I have had to a trainer but had no success. Well, l cannot express how wonderful l feel, after the first day, my dog came home and went outside to toilet, l was delighted. I followed Daniels suggested for the cage and yes it was hard, at times l nearly gave up but in the early hours, she settled and on her 2nd day with Daniel she went to the cage and settled. Daniel is definitely gifted,l highly recommend him to anyone looking for care. He genuinely loves his work, knows his stuff and has a calm personality. I hope my puppy and Daniel have a lon̈g and happy friendship. .

I was anxious about leaving our dog Birdie, black lab with someone she didn’t know . Bethany was so lovely , took Birdie at late notice so we could attend a family event that’s a long way from where we live . I don’t know the area ,so Rover was perfect . It gave me the confidence to look for some help . Bethany is very calm and welcoming . Birdie had a good time and was content and happy when we collected her . She settled quickly back home and slept well that evening . Would definitely recommend Bethany and hope to use her again if we are back in this area .

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Kirklees

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Kirklees on Rover is £23 per day (as of September 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 2,592 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Kirklees. About 87% of Kirklees 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 Kirklees 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 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.

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 .
