“Minnie had a great time with Joanne and it was clear they had developed a good bond, so I couldn't have been happier. I recieved regular updates while away too, which was reassuring. I am so pleased I chose Joanne and would reccomend her to anyone. Thank you to Rover and Joanne for you careing service”

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, and since then have had a jackpoo of my own. Can administer medication. Regularly look after my mums dogs, both big and small. I work from home 4 days a week, and take care of my own dog so I have lots of availability and your dog will have plenty of company. I have a fenced garden, and a friendly dog of my own to keep yours company. Every dog is different so happy to cater to their needs.
“Louie was amazing with my little Frenchie, Louie and his lovely family made Lenny part of the family, they kept to lennys sleeping pattern which made lenny more relaxed. I will definitely will be using Louie again.”
About: Love dogs so much I even did a dog grooming city and guild. Which also teaches you how wash &dry dogs properly,health care and awareness. Grew up with dogs and had my own working cocker up until couple of years ago when we sadly lost him . I’m retired so have plenty of time on my hands to give your dogs plenty of loving attention. Don’t have my own dog at the moment so no fear of mixing with other dogs. Would not have more than 1 dog at a time. We live in a small cottage in Woolton village with a fully fenced rear garden. Quite and peaceful environment and Perfectly placed by 4 parks within minutes away.
“Laura was great with Ralph. She kept me up tomdate on everything while he was with her and sent plenty of pics and vids too. He was really well looked after and I would definitely send him back to Laura in the future”
“Second time Paddy has stayed, and as before, Helen and Alex were great and Paddy enjoyed himself. Took extra care of him during the recent heat wave and were very accomodating. Both Helen and Alex are dead nice and easygoing. When I needed to change the original booking by adding an extra day, they fitted it around their existing arrangements.”
About: I have always loved dogs and understand just how much they mean to a family, because to me they are never “just pets” — they are part of the family. Sadly, my own beloved dog George passed away in February, and I miss him every single day. Looking after him gave me so much joy, love and companionship, and I would now love the opportunity to share that same care and affection with other people’s dogs. Becoming a dog sitter feels like a lovely way to do something meaningful, while also helping owners feel completely reassured that their dog is in safe, loving hands. I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone who will treat them with kindness, patience and genuine affection, and that is exactly the care I would provide. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa or simply having company and a calm routine, I will make sure they feel happy, secure and well looked after while you are away. I can offer a loving, reliable and attentive environment, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and needs. I would always take the time to get to know your dog so I can care for them in the way that suits them best. Most importantly, I want owners to have complete peace of mind, knowing their dog is being cared for as if they were my own. Because I work from home, your dog would have plenty of company, care and attention throughout the day. I am around to provide reassurance, regular toilet breaks, playtime, walks and lots of affection, so they will never feel left alone for long periods. I understand how important it is for owners to know their dog is safe, happy and well looked after while they are away, and being at home means I can give them the time, care and companionship they deserve. I have a secure fenced garden and work from home, which means your dog would have constant care, company and attention throughout the day. They would never be left feeling lonely or unsettled, and I can provide a safe, loving environment where they can relax, play and feel completely at home. Whether they enjoy cuddles, garden time, walks or simply having someone nearby, I will make sure they feel happy, comfortable and well cared for at all times.
“Susan and Ian were fantastic with Benji. It was his first time being apart from us for 3 days. We was nervous and he think he was too. I’m amazed how relaxed he came home. Susan sent us many pictures and updates and this made us feel really at ease. We will definitely be using Susan and Ian again as long as they will have us back”
“A massive thanks for taking such good care of our little lad. It was clear that he had a lovely time and we really appreciated the updates on how he was getting along! Highly recommended!”
“James was fantastic with Dougie, so welcoming as soon we walked through the door. Made us both feel very reassured with updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend James and will be booking again. Thanks!!”
“Very grateful to grace we needed an emergency dog minder asap we dropped Tilly off within 30 mins after she agreed. Lovely girl who kept us informed how Tilly was couldn’t ask for anyone better really. Would definitely use grace again thanks again”

Milo absolutely loved his week with James and his wife, they looked after him like he was their own. He had an upset stomach for a couple of days while we were away so they swapped his food out for chicken and rice for us and kept us updated. We’ll definitely be booking Milo back in to stay again, he loved them and vice versa.
Debbie had my 2 dogs for a full week, I felt that they were going to be looked after very well,they were.I wouldn't hesitate to ask Debbie to have them again at some point.Thank you Deb.it was lovely to see my fur baby's when we picked them up,they were happy and well looked after.I would highly recommend this lovely couple.
George absolutely loved his stay with Katie. As he was staying for 10 days we did a meet and greet first and I could tell from then that he would be in great hands. The whole family are lovely and passionate dog lovers. I got regular videos and pictures which was great and he went on lots of lovely walks. Would 100% recommend Katie to anyone and will be using again
Skye was amazing with ted our fur baby, he loved being with sky.He was well looked after, we received pictures and videos . Skye was amazing ted loved her, we will be sending ted back to skye ,she is super fabulous thank you skye ,we felt at ease with you minding ted xxxx
This was the first time we had used the app, and we really did hit the jackpot. Jackie made us feel so welcome from our first meeting, and when we were away, the daily updates we received showing olive so happy and well looked after meant we were fully able to relax and enjoy our break. Jackie’s garden was fully secure and dog friendly, and it was clear all of her family were true dog lovers. We would have no hesitation in recommending her and will definitely be using her again. Thank you Jackie!
We have just picked up our dog from Helen and he really enjoyed his stay there 😀 Helen kept us up to date with photos and videos which was lovely. I was quite anxious about leaving him as we have never left him before and he can get quite anxious, but will definitely be using Helen again as he seemed to really enjoy his stay there, thank you Helen

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Knowsley 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 .

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 North West England 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 .
