“Laura took amazing care of my young dog, Monte, for 11 days. Since he is still quite young, the first couple of days were a bit tough for him being away from me, but Laura took care of him just like her own dog. Monte had a blast playing with her dog, Arziel, and they became great friends. Laura took them out for walks twice a day and constantly sent me lovely photo updates from both their walks and around the house, which kept my mind completely at ease. Monte grew to love her so much that he was even cuddling up and sleeping on the couch! He returned home incredibly happy. Thank you so much, Laura, for your time and the wonderful care you gave Monte. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Jodie and her partner were both lovely. They looked after our greyhound Hugo for 1 night. She sent us updates of how Hugo was getting on, he seemed to have a lovely time with them! Thank you!!”
“Duke had a fab time with Rachel. She kept us updated throughout his stay. Being an older dog with health issues it is always a worry to leave him with someone new but we were out at ease from initial contact. Thank you!”
“James really seemed to get our anxious, over energetic, slightly mischievous, clingy lab and helped give him a fab weekend away from us, where he was well looked after, taken on loads of activities and spoilt rotten! Thanks James for making it easier for us to leave Gus properly for the 1st time and for giving Gus a home from home.”
“Joanne was excellent. She took great care of my dog. She kept in touch with updates and photos and I felt confident that my dog was happy in her care. My dog can show signs of anxiety, but he was calm relaxed and happy when he came home, so I know he had a good time. Thanks Joanne. You’re a star!”
“This was the second booking with Alba, she is amazing! Took excellent care of my two Dogs while I was away for 5 days! Lots of pictures and videos of them which keeps your mind at rest! My Dogs don’t want to leave! Cannot thank Alba enough, I will continue to book Alba when my Dogs need a second home! 🐶☺️”
“Abby looked after our dog so well. It was a last minute booking and she stepped up just in time for our trip. She made the effort to come out before the trip at short notice to meet our dog. Lady is energetic and needs lots of walks to tire her out and she came back really tired and content. Will use again”
“Fantastic dog minders! Ian & Sue looked after Bella for 3 days. They were both really nice and down to earth people. They made us feel very reassured that Bella was in a safe pair of hands and kept us up to date with messages and photos. Thank you very much for looking after Bella. We will be booking her in with you guys in the near future.”
“Kerry was the best! I contacted her with quite short notice because I was going for a night out and she got back to me really quick and was really accommodating. She made things really simple for me by collecting Carrots for me and dropping her back for the next day which surprised me. She went above and beyond to make things super convenient for me. Most importantly, my dog Carrots came back to me really chilled and happy. She’d obviously been really comfortable and happy for the night and I’d had loads of updates to keep my mind at ease! I will definitely contact Kerry again if I’m looking for someone to take carrots for the night for me!”
“Nicola and the family what can I say but a huge thank you. Lots of pics sent. Bailey is well look after. Communication is amazing 👏 Bailey loved staying over night Lots of walks which he loved. Hope stay soon 🐾”
“We dreaded leaving our little dog with anyone but Elizabeth and her family were fantastic with Dudley. Although he has only stayed with her for 1 day and night so far he seemed really settled and happy when we picked him up. Throughout his short stay, Elizabeth kept us up to date with messages and photos which reassured us that he was being well looked after and cared for. We have booked Dudley in for a couple of longer stays with Elizabeth over the coming months and we feel confident in doing so.”
“Louie and his family are amazing. I cannot praise them enough for how well they have taken care of our boy George. They loved him as if he was their own and so when my dad went to collect him he was extremely reluctant to leave!!! We were able to enjoy our holiday without any worries knowing our precious pooch was in excellent hands. 😊”
“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”
“Garry looked after my lovely little terrier and she had a lovely time. He sent photos and videos the whole weekend so I didn’t need to worry. He took my dog for a swim in his local lake and she loved it. His two dogs are super friendly and clearly very well-socialised. He even showered Star so she came back cleaner than when she went. Thank you, Garry. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“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!”
“We can’t recommend Helen and her partner enough they have been wonderful from start to finish. Nelly loved her stay and made herself right at home, we had regular updates and pictures which put us at ease. A lovely home, secure garden and great walks nearby. Nelly can’t wait to stay again- 100% recommend💕”
“We had a great experience with Sharon. She took great care of Honey while we were away on holiday and we really appreciated how regularly she kept us updated with messages, photos and even a little video, which was so lovely. Sharon was reliable, caring and easy to communicate with which gave us peace of mind. We would definitely recommend Sharon and would happily book her again. Thank you so much Sharon for taking such great care of Honey for us.”
About: Experienced dog owner and sitter with years of caring for many breeds and ages. Confident with puppies, training, and older dogs. Working from home means I can provide plenty of attention, company and round-the-clock care. I work 8am-4pm, but my partner Gemma works from home, so your dog will have company and care all day. We have plenty of time for walks, play and cuddles throughout the week, and are around all weekend. Boarding from 9am weekdays and weekends. We have a spacious, secure fenced garden with plenty of grass for play and relaxation, plus large playing fields right outside, perfect for dog walks. Our two dog-friendly cats are used to sharing their home with dogs, and there’s plenty of space for everyone. We can only board dogs that are used to cats and are not aggressive toward them.
About: I've had a dog since I was 8. I have a genuine love for them. I understand that they are more than pets they are loving members of our families that we care about like children. I understand their traits, what they are trying to tell just by paying attention. I have a wonderful dog myself and he loves playing with other dogs. I think it would lovely for him to have a playmate. I would take care of your dog like they were my own, it would be what I want for my own dog when he is being minded. Your dog would be walked two to three times a day, they would have full access to the house and every effort will be made for their comfort physically and emotionally. Also as a side note I used to foster dogs when they were looking for a forever home, these dogs had different emotional needs and sometimes had suffered some past trauma. I work from home, I have flexible hours so we can go on walks in the 6 different parks that we have locally. I like to walk in nature and enjoy the park visits each day. Also there a big enough garden for a good zoomie and ball play. There is only me in the house so they would get my undivided attention. I have a dog who has the best temperament, he's super friendly and great with other dogs. Your dog would feel right at home, I would be keeping an eye on your dog at all times and keep them safe and happy. Its rewarding for me to have their company, so I get as much enjoyment as they do. If your dog is anxious or nervous in certain environments that's not a problem, I can adapt to their needs. Your dog will be treated like a loved one.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Knowsley is £30

Ella was amazing with our mini dachshund, updated us regularly with pictures and made sure he got lots of attention, walks and play.

We’d definitely be happy for her to stay with Jodie again and would absolutely recommend her 😊
Bandit only stayed with Natalie for one night, but he had a lovely time. He was happy and settled, and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. We had a very positive experience and would happily recommend Natalie to others. Thank you for looking after Bandit so well! 🐾💕
I have a brilliant experience when I boarded my husky with Jasmin and her beautiful lab! Jasmin responded quickly to my questions and messages and gave me lots of photo updates! She has an excellent home for dog boarding and I could tell my dog was being looked after brilliantly. I would definitely have her look after my dog 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.

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.

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Knowsley on Rover is £35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £28 and £47 per night.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog has an overnight booking in a sitter’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.
The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one pet owner's pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.
Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Boarding. With 2,671 sitters in Knowsley, 71% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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.
