About: I’ve been around dogs for many years and have always had dogs as part of my family, so I understand how important they are and how much love, care and attention they need. I’ve also helped my daughter with her dog-sitting business and bookings, giving me hands-on experience caring for different dogs and understanding their individual routines and needs. I’m a caring, patient and responsible person who genuinely enjoys being around dogs. I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable and at home while they’re in my care, with plenty of love, attention and cuddles along the way! 🐾❤️ I’m at home full-time and have a very flexible schedule, so your dog will have plenty of company, care and attention throughout the day. I’m available to fit around your dog’s individual routine, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding times, cuddles or simply having someone around for reassurance. Because I’m home most of the time, I can provide a calm and loving environment where your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and settled while they’re staying with me. 🐾❤️ Your dog will be welcomed into a spacious, comfortable home where they can relax and feel part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced back garden, giving dogs plenty of safe space to enjoy some fresh air, play and explore. I’ll make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, affection and care throughout their stay, while following their usual routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to provide regular toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles and lots of company. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe, settled and at home, with plenty of space both inside and outside to enjoy. 🐾❤️

“Max came home relaxed and tired. Deirdre was lovely with Max, took him on 2 walks, and sent me updates with photos. Really glad to know that Max gets along very well with Sid. I’d definitely love for her to look after him again.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, I currently have a 5 year old cocker spaniel, who is very loving and caring, if not a little mental. My kids also love dogs and yours would be treated like one of the family.. I work from home most days. I have a fenced in garden and the front door opens right on to an open space for walks. A few times a week I am up at Cannock Chase with the dog, So depends on what your dog needs. I can just slot them in to the plan. I have a fenced garden and a lovely cocker spaniel to keep your dog company, equally if they need they can come and sit the office or in a crate. Whatever they need. There are 2 cats, but they stay out the way upstairs.
“Hannah was so accommodating and friendly, we were happy with her care and flexibility, our red Labrador was settled and unstressed on return. Thanks very much and happy to use her again.”

About: I’m a proud and loving dog mom to a Cockapoo and have hands on experience with both Cockapoos and Cocker Spaniels, especially working dogs. Over the years, I’ve raised multiple puppies from their earliest stages, so I understand the patience, consistency, and extra attention they need to grow into happy, well adjusted dogs. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs, providing the gentleness, patience and a routine they rely on. My personal experience as a lifelong dog lover and caretaker means I treat every pup like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable, whether we’re on a walk, playing, or simply relaxing together. Because I work from home five days a week, I have plenty of flexibility and time to give pets the attention they need throughout the day. I already take myself out for two walks daily, so it’s easy to bring a dog along for fresh air, exercise, and a change of scenery. This routine means I can offer regular toilet breaks, playtime, and cuddles :) I have a secure, fenced garden that’s perfect for playtime and fresh air, and I can easily accommodate crates if your dog is more comfortable with their own space or routine. I also share my home part time with my own Cockapoo - Alfie, who is super friendly and well socialised. He’s with me about 2 out of 4 weeks a month, and he loves having a playmate around. When he’s here, I make sure all introductions are done slowly and safely so everyone feels at ease.

I’m based in Lichfield and usually available on weekday evenings, weekends daytime & evenings, and for holidays. I offer a free initial 'Meet & Greet' (up to 30 mins) for all of my services so we can get to know each other better and discuss together how I can better take care of your furry friend(s). For home visits and/or dog walking, I am usually available on weekday evenings and weekends daytime & evenings. I'm an active individual so happy to go on longer walks and/or runs for the furry friends who needs more exercising. For day care or boarding, i work from home so I can be at home most of the time throughout the week, ensuring your furry friend(s) are never left alone for any extended periods of time and given the company they deserve.

“Craig provided doggy daycare our lively Cocker Spaniel Ruben for 2 days this week due to short notice work commitments. We were able to arrange a meet and greet shortly after I made an enquiry through Rover. We were impressed with the location - surrounded by beautiful countryside. We were immediately reassured by Craig’s professional knowledge and experience, demonstrated in the way he has trained and cared for his own dogs. Ruben really enjoyed his 2 days of doggy daycare with Craig. It gives us peace of mind to know he is so well looked after and he will definitely be spending more time with Craig in both daycare and obedience training. We are lucky to have found him. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve always grown up with pets in the household and I’m now lucky enough to be the proud owner of Betty, my 2 year old Cocker Spaniel and Coba my 6 year old male Bengal. Both are great with other animals as they’ve grown up around them. I believe pets should be treated as part of the family so I will look after them like they’re my own and am happy for them to cuddle up on the sofa with me. I also live near fields and woodlands which is great for dog walks. I am currently on maternity leave, meaning I am at home full time so can be very flexible with bookings and am available evenings and weekends. I have a fenced garden and two friendly pets of my own for your fur baby to play/cuddle up with. I also live walking distance from parks, fields and woodlands that are great for dog walks. I live in a 3 bedroom house so plenty of room for boarding and doggy day care and I have a spare crate that can be used if needed as my own puppy is crate trained.
“I felt totally confident leaving my nervous dog, Honey with Jas. I was working in the area and needed doggy day care. Would definitely recommend as absolutely worth the five stars”

“Kirsty was great looking after our dog Kevin. She was really welcoming and communicative with us. Kevin has a few extra needs which she was really understanding of and accommodating for. We will be using Kirsty to look after him again!”

“Our 5 month old puppy had an absolutely amazing time with Megan. I felt really comfortable knowing that she was going to be well looked after, and Megan is clearly a natural with animals! Definitely recommend”

“Niamh was brilliant with our little puppy. He stayed overnight and was really well looked after. Thank you to Niamh & family for being so kind and friendly with Bobby! We highly recommend ☺️”

“Kayan goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is happy. She sent me lots of photos and a few videos of him being spoilt, he looked very content. Thanks very much.”

“Thank you both for looking after Oatmeal! I messaged last minute and they accepted my booking without any hassle. They gave me updates, with videos and photos, and I could tell that Oat felt at home with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Matt again in the future!”

“Alice was fantastic! She looked after my dog Margot on very short notice for the evening and couldn’t have been more helpful. She sent me plenty of photos of Margot enjoying herself and took her out for a nice walk. I felt completely at ease knowing Margot was in such good hands. Highly recommend”

Dog owners share their Rover experiences - Lichfield
This was the first time we had ever left Molly with anyone, so we were a little hesitant about it. There was no need to be, Claudia was superb. We had already had a pre meeting with her and from then she put our minds at ease. On the day, she sent us messages and pictures of Molly to show how she was getting on. Claudia is a lovely girl and is experienced in looking after dogs and dedicated in doing so. If ever we need a dog minder in the future, we would not hesitate in choosing Claudia.

Evie looked after my dog for the day at very short notice and was incredibly flexible which I really appreciated. She put me completely at ease when I dropped my dog off and it was lovely to receive photos throughout the day. I was very happy with the care she provided and would definitely use Evie again. Highly recommended!

Coco enjoyed her stay with Shuang. She seemed comfortable and relaxed in her home and got taken for a couple of walks throughout the day. We got regular updates and Shuang was very flexible on our collection time (we were running a bit late). We would definitely book for Coco to stay again :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lichfield on Rover is £23 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,445 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Lichfield. About 87% of Lichfield 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 Lichfield 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 West Midlands 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.
