“Teddy's daycare with Fran was everything we could have asked for. She sent us pictures during the day and Teddy looks to have had a great time on a walk in the woods with other dogs. He seemed reluctant to say goodbye! Will definitely be using Fran again. Thank you!”
“This day care appointment was a trail run, seeing how our Cozette would behave for Rachel and also to see whether she seemed happy and relaxed before we booked a longer stay. Our experience was very good. Cozette seemed right at home and we will be booking a longer stay soon.”
“Absolutely great. Daniella was very accommodating regarding times and I felt very comfortable about leaving our dog Lil with her. Lil seemed to be very happy about being left and felt at home straight away. Many thanks Daniella.”
About: I grew up in the countryside with a large menagerie of animals and then went into pet sitting. I have several regular clients who book me on repeat every year because I provide a great level of care for their pets. Genuine animal lover and love getting out and about in the countryside with a four legged friend or 3. Fun, fresh air and snuggles guaranteed. I work from home and I'm self employed which means I'm free to go for walkies whenever it's needed and I'm always with your pet to keep them company. I have a home educated daughter who is a real animal lover and has grown up pet sitting with me since she was a few months old. We both love to get out and about in the countryside and love the company of a dog or two on our rambles. We know the area well and always seek out great dog walks and places for them to play. I have a fenced garden and a warm, cosy home where pets can hop onto the bed or sofas for cuddles. I live on the edge of the countryside so only 5 minutes walk before we reach open fields, hills and streams for playtime. I have been pet sitting for many years and always take impeccable care of their homes and pets.
“Rufus had a wonderful day with Jess and her family. He went straight in to the home with his tail wagging, and loved sniffing around the garden. Jess was very attentive to Rufus’s needs and he left very happy indeed. Would definitely recommend Jess for doggy day care.”
“Although nervous about leaving Monty we needn’t have been . We had a meet and greet first and Nicolas and his wife put our minds at ease as they were such dog friendly people. We were sent photos during the day and Monty had the best time. Just want to say thank you, we recommend them and will definitely use them again”
About: I grew up with animals of all sorts in Kenya, and have had various pets throughout my life: dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, tortoises, fish, and a giant snail. My last dog (boxer) was a family pet, which I trained from a puppy, and cared for until she grew old. My cats came to me as kittens and lived long happy lives with me. I've looked after friends' and neighbours' dogs, walking, playing with them, and having them overnight or for several days at a time. I have a large garden in rural Somerset - perfectly suited for dogs. I love all animals! I am a freelance artist, and work mainly from home. I can offer many hours of company in the daytime, and am always at home overnight. I wake early so the morning feed and walk is easily done. I have a large spacious fenced garden, in a rural village in Somerset. I keep pets downstairs to roam freely in the sitting room and kitchen. I can crate your pet if needed, when I go out.
“Anna was lovely & my pups took to her straight away which is always a good sign for me. I wouldn't hesitate to have Anna back or to recommend her either. Thank you Anna”
“Rob looked after my dog extremely well, he and his family were incredible with my dog and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others :) She actually didn’t want to leave!! Thank you Rob and Family!”
“Brian was absolutely brilliant. He spent time with us to get to know Oslo before his first session. Brian kept us up to date with photos and videos during the day. It looked like Oslo had a great time, he slept all evening, so definitely had a busy day. Thanks for looking after Oslo, we look forward to the next time.”
“Highly recommend Beth! We left our dog with Beth for 2 days whilst we visited Longleat, Beth was so lovely from the first meet and greet, she then sent photo updates to show how our dog was getting on, Beth’s communication was excellent, and our dog was so happy there with Beth’s dog as well, wouldn’t hesitate to use again!”
About: *Currently not taking on any new pooches, only those that have previously holidayed with us to ensure we can accommodate our lovely regulars* I’ve always had dogs and have two gorgeous pooches of my own (whippet & dachshund), so I truly understand the needs and personalities of different breeds. Pet First Aid completed through Paw Aid Ltd. I’m happy to board one dog at a time or two from the same household, offering them a fun and loving environment. I’m experienced in training puppies and also provide gentle care for senior dogs, ensuring they get the attention and comfort they deserve. I love long walks and would be thrilled to have an extra running buddy! Dogs must be used to children. I work from home so around all day, dogs will get a walk in the morning & a nice long walk at lunch. If needed evening walks can be done too. Happy to take dog boarding throughout the week and weekends. I have a fenced garden with plenty of space to run around. Dogs are allowed on the sofa if they like a cuddle, happy to have a crate and work with you to make a home from home for your fur baby. We have two dogs (14 years old & 9 month old) who love to meet other dogs. I will only take one dog at a time but possibly 2 from the same household.
“After being left high and dry by another sitter, Megan came to our rescue. She replied to our same day request within half an hour, and Ozzie was in her care within the hour. We could not ask for a better, more accommodating and welcoming family to look after our boy. We had regular updates and it was lovely to see Ozzie befriending her dog Benny. If I was local to the area I would not hesitate to use Megan’s services again. Highly recommended.”

Daniella was very friendly and settled our dogs in quickly with herself and her dog Marley. She sent us frequent updates and remembered lots of details we gave her verbally as we were leaving. The girls were very calm and content. I would thoroughly recommend Daniella.
Rufus had a wonderful day with Jess and her family. He went straight in to the home with his tail wagging, and loved sniffing around the garden. Jess was very attentive to Rufus’s needs and he left very happy indeed. Would definitely recommend Jess for doggy day care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Mendip on Rover is £33.35 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,343 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Mendip. About 86% of Mendip 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 Mendip 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 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.
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. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
