“Liga was great once again, taking perfect care of our little pup (big pup now!). Marley is such a gentle giant with her too. Would highly recommend and Hunny will come and stay again ❤️”
“After dropping Latrell off I received regular updates and photos from Paige which really put my mind at ease and it was clear Latrell was happy and having lots of fun with her and her extremely cute cockapoos Malibu and Cleo. When I picked Latrell up he was relaxed and in no rush to leave which was great to see. I’m very grateful for the updates and attention Paige gave to Latrell throughout his stay. I will defiantly book again when I needs someone to look after him and I would highly recommend Paige to anyone looking for someone that they can trust to look after there dog like there own.”
“We could not recommend Abbie highly enough. We have two little dogs, one of which is not dog friendly. We were a week and a half away from going abroad for our wedding and were truly concerned we weren’t going to find anyone willing to take on our little handful but Abbie was so kind, took time out of her day to meet with us twice to ensure her dog and our dogs were fine, and then cared for our dogs as if they were her own. She send lovely videos and photos from their adventures on walks and sunset bbq’s and Bo came back happy that he hadn’t just made friends with Abbie’s little dog Bumble, but two large hound pups that I would never have believe Bo would tolerate. She saved our bacon and we are so happy we have her now for future holidays when we need the dogs to have a home from home x”
“I don't like leaving our dog anywhere really but I did feel confident that he was in safe and caring hands leaving him at Tara's. I received pictures and videos of him whilst we were away and it was great to see him enjoying himself. Thank you!”
“We will be using Cordelia again, no doubt. She looked after our fluffy son really well, treat him as one of her own and kept us updated with plenty of pics along the way. Thor looked like he had the best time ever with her and made friends for life with her dogs, too, which he absolutely loved. 🥰”
“Hunny had a great time with Lottie over the weekend. They went on nice long walks and she came back very worn out 😅. She was very quick to reply to messages. I would have liked more photos/communication during her stay but also I didn't ask! Over all happy and would book again :)”
“Amba had a fab first stay with Courtney and Chris. She was very well looked after and communication was great with updates and pics shared too. Narla and Bonnie are lovely and friendly cockapoos and Amba got on well with both of them. Thanks so much for looking after my Amba :)”
“Absolutely amazing from start to finish! I never had a single doubt about Simran. Nothing was ever too much, she was warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. You can clearly tell the dogs get treated with so much love and care, just like her own. I am so glad to have found Simran. I never once worried and that’s very rare to find. Thanks so much for everything, you went above and beyond :)”
“I can't thank Chloe enough for taking good care of my cat. Chloe was very easy to communicate with, we had to change times and dates due to me moving house too and she really helped and was very flexible. I was constantly updated on how my cat was settling and really nice pictures. Made me happy and I could just relax knowing she was being well care for. Will 100% book again!!”
“First time leaving Polly with Teresa and John. We had a meet up visit prior to this and we immediately felt at ease. Polly clearly had a lovely time and was very relaxed when we collected her. We have another longer stay planned and it’s reassuring to know she will be loved and well cared for.”
“Cindy is amazing. We absolutely love her, and will be using her again. She has a truly animal friendly home. Harvey fully enjoyed his stay with her. We got photos and videos updates throughout his stay. We have no complaints with Cindy, her home, or any aspects of Harveys visit with her. We highly recommend Cindy on Rovers.”
About: We’ve been born into family that have always had dogs and due to work commitments we are not in a position to have our own right now. That said, we are excited to find this app and be able to host a dog into our living home when available. Hard floors in our home, a secured garden, and time morning and evening to walk your dog through the surrounding fields around our villages. If your dog travels well in a car, we will take it in a longer walk in interesting places. We are both self employed and have flexible work pattern both from home and in the work place if required. We have no children and are excited to be spending time with your dog. We have fenced and secured garden and lovely countryside walks around our village. We love finding out new places to walk and with lots of space for the dogs to play with us.
“We contacted Elizabeth at very short notice and honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after Romeo. She was incredibly quick and reassuring with her replies from the beginning, and Romeo clearly had the best time with her. She kept us updated throughout his stay with lots of photos, which was such a lovely touch and completely put our minds at ease. We felt totally comfortable knowing he was being so well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Elizabeth again and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their dog. Thank you so much again 😊”
“I booked in a three night stay for my two year old Staffy, Ruby, who can be quite anxious / sensitive. From the very first meeting it was clear just how much Emma not only cared about animals, but also how much she wanted to learn about Ruby, her training and routine, to really make sure her stay was tailored around the least disruption possible. She had great body language, tuned in to Ruby very quickly, and had a calm, beautiful home with a lovely family in the middle of the countryside which was perfect. Booking was easy with natural, chatty messages, and Emma was super accommodating around days / times that worked. Daily updates were detailed and always had photos, and I felt entirely comfortable the entire time. Could not have asked for a better experience, would book again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much!”
“This is my 2nd time of having Ann, she is amazing with my 2 dogs , I got a message every day and a photo. Kept me updated about them both and I know my dogs enjoyed staying there. Also a very good handover on my return Definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for a dog sitter”
“Julia was absolutely amazing with Safia ❤️ From the very beginning, she was caring, attentive, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. She kept me updated throughout the stay with detailed messages about walks, food, water, playtime, and how Safia was doing emotionally, which gave me so much peace of mind, and the most thorough report about her day. She even washed and dried Safia’s blanket after a little accident without hesitation, such a kind gesture that truly shows how much she cares! Safia clearly felt comfortable and loved with Julia and her family, and it made me so happy to hear how well she got along with everyone 😊 I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person. I would trust Julia again without a second thought and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, warm, patient, and genuinely loving with dogs. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Safia 🐾”
“Marley had a wonderful Christmas with Heather and family. They treated him better than he would be at home and I couldn’t have left him in better hands! Thanks so much.”

We honestly couldn’t recommend Paige enough. Both Kiara and Koda have come home super happy, relaxed and clearly very well looked after. Kiara is a real family dog and can struggle being away from us. We used a different sitter last year and when she came home, you could tell she hadn’t been particularly happy while we were away. This time has been completely different. She’s come back her normal, happy self, which says everything about the care and attention Paige gave her. We were even more nervous about leaving Koda as we’ve only had her for around three months. We got her at six months old and she wasn’t house trained, which we’ve really struggled with, and she’s also extremely energetic. Somehow, after just one week with Paige, she’s come home house trained! 😂 Her temperament also seems noticeably calmer and more settled. Paige was also brilliant at keeping us updated while we were away. We got enough messages and photos to know the girls were happy and being well looked after, without feeling like we were constantly being bombarded with updates while trying to enjoy our holiday. She got the balance absolutely spot on and we never once felt like we needed to worry about them. Whatever Paige has done with them this week has been amazing. It’s such a relief knowing we now have someone we can completely trust with both of our dogs when we go away. We’ll 100% be using Paige again. 10/10 from us and two very happy dogs! ❤️🐾
Phineas stayed with Hannah for 2 nights and it was definitely home from home for him. We were very confident to leave our precious year-old boy with her, leaving him for the first time overnight. He is a very lively boy to.manage but that did not daunt her and he had a lovely time with all his needs being met. I think he was sorry to leave! Will definitely book him another holiday with lovely Hannah 😊
Hunny had a great time with Lottie over the weekend. They went on nice long walks and she came back very worn out 😅. She was very quick to reply to messages. I would have liked more photos/communication during her stay but also I didn't ask! Over all happy and would book again :)
I couldn’t be happier with the care David provided for my dog, Oreo From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear that he genuinely love animals and take the job seriously. Oreo can be a little anxious at first, but David was so patient and kind. I really appreciated the regular photo and message updates; it gave me total peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. When I came home, Oreo was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend David to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and loving dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking again!

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 East 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.
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 .
