“Andre has been absolutely amazing and so accommodating. Doug clearly had a fantastic time on his holiday and enjoyed playing with the other guests. Can't thank Andre enough who helped us out having been let down by someone else!”
“Hugo could not have been looked after better than he was with Nick and Dawn. His every need was attended to, their lovely dog Doug accepted him without any problem and I suspect we have a holiday home for Hugo from now on. Absolutely perfect. Thank you.”
“Magnus stayed with Fraser for four nights and was well looked after. We got plenty of photo updates of nice long walks and a video of Magnus fast asleep and snoring. We know he's in good hands!”
“Rachel was amazing…really gentle and calm and I knew Arti would be fine with her and her dog straight away…he is also very calm and gentle 🙂. I’ll definitely be asking for help again.”
“Very happy with Ashley, who was very flexible about arrangements, and responded quickly to messages. Marley had a lovely time with her and came home calm and chilled. Will definitely use her again.”
“So glad I had Brian to take care of Willow… his communication was amazing from start to finish, I had regular updates and photos of willows stay and she look so happy, Would 100% recommend Brian.”
“Frances was an amazing sitter for Teddy. From the get go I knew he would have an amazing time, they had a great secure garden, knew walks to take Teddy and he was very happy there. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Linda was brilliant watching woody and kestrel for the evening. She really kindly and quickly responded to our (quite last minute!) booking request, and was great when we were communicating pick up and drop off times. We loved getting photo updates, and the pups made themselves at home immediately and were chilled and happy on pick up. If we are ever in Bristol for an evening again we will definitely give Linda a shout 💖🐶 thanks so much!”
“Nicola was so great with our nervous doggies. They were so happy and calm. Nicola’s house is lovely and clean and our little dog couldn’t get up to any mischief! They went on a long walk and were really calm when we got them home. Perfect day! I’ll be re booking..”
“Helen did an excellent job looking after Leo for our holiday. He had a brilliant time playing with Marvin and has come home a super chilled and happy animal. Helen does an excellent job in looking after the dogs and they become quickly attached to her. She has an excellent setup /location and I would happily recommend her as a brilliant place for a doggy holiday! We will definitely be using her again.”
“Doug has had an amazing time with Melissa, Suki and family. We received lovely photos and updates whilst we were away. Doug even got to go running which was an added bonus! A wonderful holiday home with people that really understand dogs. Couldn't rate highly enough. Thankyou for having him and also for his little treat we found in his going away bag. See you soon.”
“Robert and his family provided a home from home for Archie, helping him to settle in, and providing company through out the days of his stay, giving him regular walks and exercise and putting up with his quirks. We will be happy for Archie to holiday in their family home again.”
“Lexi was clearly very relaxed with Yolanda, immediately jumping onto the dofa next to her and putting her head on Yolanda's knees. I received lots of photos and videos of Lexi having a great time and foynd Yolanda personable, helpful and kind. I would book with her again.”
“Bowie was so well looked after! Tanya kept us updated with lots of photos and messages, which gave us real peace of mind. He was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time when we picked him up. Thanks so much for taking such amazing care of our beagle. We’ll definitely be booking again! Nat, Pat & Bowie xx”
“Our favourite Rover boarding ever. The week coincided with a spontaneous heatwave and honestly I couldn't have left Poppy in better hands than Melissa. Daily updates, photos, videos, I knew she was being well cared for and having a great holiday of her own. Melissa even kindly bought Poppy a replica toy of one she'd become very attached to - she will treasure Clyde the duck forever. We've stayed with many Rover sitters over the years, Melissa tops the list of ones we will book in with again. Thank you!”
“Absolutely excellent dog sitter. My dog barely wanted to leave when I came to pick him up! His diabetic needs were fully taken care of without a problem and with full confidence. What a lifesaver knowing we have someone who can keep him when we go on road trips! Definitely will be a repeat customer.”
“Linsey was a fantastic host to our Vinnie. It was very appreciated that she hosted for a day prior to a weekly stay, so he could feel settled before (and we could too, first time ever leaving with a dog sitter!). We look forward to seeing you again soon!”
“Becky was amazing from day one. Very proactive and friendly, kept in touch, had us over for a meet and greet, learned all the basics about Ben and sent us loads of updates. Ben seems to have really liked his time spent with her and we'll definitely reach out again to have her look after him 🖤 Thank you”
“Winnie seemed to have had a great time with Hayley and her family and they ensured her needs were met. She stayed overnight and was very fond of them, I would recommend them!”

We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter for Obi while we were away for our wedding. From the moment they met, Obi (who is usually quite nervous around new people) took to Fran immediately, which gave us so much confidence. Throughout the two nights, Fran kept us updated with lovely photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease and meant we could relax and enjoy our special day knowing he was in such caring hands. It was clear that Obi was happy, well looked after and genuinely cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fran to anyone looking for a kind, reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our boy!
After one day of day care to help familiarise our labradoodle Isla with Rachel and her dog Buster, we left her boarding with them for two days. As Isla was already familiar with the environment, she appeared to settle quickly and we appreciated that Rachel was keen to keep to Isla's normal routines where possible. We could see from the photos she provided that Isla was enjoying her stay, particularly the regular and frequent walks (more I think than she has at home). We had absolutely no concerns arising from the two days boarding and we are totally relaxed at the thought of further visits. Thank you Rachel and Buster.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Mendip on Rover is £46 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 .
As of August 2026, there are 1,244 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mendip. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 South 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 .
