About: Marcé but also known as // goes by Shay 🏳️🌈 I've taken care of mostly small and medium sized dogs. I have 1 dog - Pumba the Frenchie! She’s 6 full of personality, sleepy with a panache for snorts. I have experience with rescues too having looked after Luna, a Romanian rescue who I walked almost everyday (when she was ready to), for 2.5 years. I am patient and will love and cuddle every dog as if they were my own. I am a freelance creative so I wfh most of the week. I go for regular walks and am an avid runner if your dog loves a run :) My garden is fenced with a high up lock so no nifty pet can unlock. I have baby gates if needed for pets who are not good with stairs.
“Poppy had a lovely first visit with Mandy. She came home relaxed and happy and had obviously been well cared for. Mandy kept in touch with messages and photos which was very reassuring for me. I will happily book Mandy when I need care for Poppy again.”

“Skylar was amazing with our puppy and also very flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times! She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent lots of photos as well. Our boy really enjoyed his time with her😊”

“Excellent day care for my Jack Russell x, Gaston. Good communication from Simon leading up to the day. I would certainly recommend and be happy to leave Gaston with Simon again.”

“Kellie was brilliant with Waffle who can be a bit shy and anxious. She took time to understand his needs and provided him with toys and a bed to settle him in. Would thoroughly recommend!”

“This was our first time with Lai Yan. Kasper really enjoyed his day. Such a clean, comfortable home. Very considerate about Kasper’s needs, caring and gentle and provided a lot of updates and pictures to reassure us. They are very friendly and patient. Highly recommend and will definitely come back.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From playful puppies to gentle seniors, big breeds to tiny companions, I’ve looked after them all — including friends’ and family’s pets who trust me like one of their own. I understand how important their routines are — from feeding times to walks and play. Having trained my own dogs, I bring patience and consistency that helps them feel secure and at ease. I truly love walking, so daily strolls and outdoor adventures are always a highlight. Playtime is just as important, and I make sure every pet feels engaged, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or games in the garden, I treat every furry friend as family. I’m fully available for: • 🐾 Dog walking • 🐾 Home pop-ins • 🐾 Boarding (Thursday through the weekend) Your pup will get plenty of walks, playtime, and love while in my care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a secure, fully fenced back garden with both artificial grass and paved areas, giving dogs plenty of safe space to play and explore. My local area is perfect for walks, with wooded parks and a lake just 10 minutes away for variety and enrichment. I share my home with two friendly French Bulldogs (ages 9 and 2), both crate trained, so I’m very familiar with crate training and have a spare crate available if needed. At night, my two sleep in their crates as they prefer it, but visiting dogs are welcome to free roam if that’s their routine. I also have school aged children so any dogs we board would need to be child friendly. We’re a dog-loving household with plenty of toys, treats, bowls, blankets, and leads on hand if needed. Nothing is ever too much when it comes to caring for your pets. I’ll treat your fur babies as my own, and I’m always happy to adapt to their individual needs — just let me know what makes them happiest!
About: I am a trusted dog owner who would love to look after other dogs in my home, or visit you to look after yours. I have been successful in training my own puppy through professional classes. I am at home Tuesdays-Sundays. Fenced garden for dogs to play, plenty of toys & more. My own puppy is an extremely fun, friendly & sociably boy. I believe dogs thrive in companionship so I’m sure your dog would not be bored here! I work part time on Mondays, and every other day I am available to take care of your dog. Overnight or daytime boarding. Bed & toys provided. In my home, my dog sleeps in his crate upstairs. During the daytime we are based downstairs between each room and the garden. I have plenty of dog beds, toys treats etc. It is a lovely environment for doggies which can be seen though my happy puppy.
“We needed a last minute dog sitter and Krissy was amazing! Romeo settled in with her easily, he was fed, taken out for a walk & had playtime too, we couldn’t have asked for more, Romeo loved it! Will definitely be in contact again”

About: 💛 Pet Care Experience 🐾 Hi, I’m Nicole — a loving pet sitter and proud mom to a five-year-old. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets, including Shiba Inus, Chihuahuas, British Shorthair cats, stray cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and even fish. From newborn animals who need gentle, round-the-clock care to senior pets who require patience and extra attention, I always adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. 🐶 Professional Experience & Training I hold a Certificate in Dog Behaviour and Training, which allows me to understand canine body language and respond in a calm, positive, and reassuring way. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, reactive, or simply needs companionship, I focus on making them feel safe, relaxed, and understood. 💊 Special Care Skills I am also experienced in administering oral medication (tablets and liquid), always prioritising your pet’s comfort and reducing stress during the process. 👩👧 Personal Touch As a mother, I’ve developed strong patience, empathy, and responsibility — qualities that naturally extend into how I care for animals. I truly believe every pet deserves kindness, respect, and a calm, loving environment where they feel secure. As a mother, I spend most of my time at home, so I have the flexibility to care for pets and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. With years of experience caring for Shiba Inus, Chihuahuas, British Shorthair cats, stray cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and fish, I provide compassionate, tailored pet care in my home or the pet owner’s home, depending on the service offered. My Certificate in Dog Behavior and Training enhances my ability to understand canine body language, ensuring calm and positive interactions, while my experience with diverse animals allows me to adapt to each pet’s unique needs, from playful newborns to senior pets requiring extra patience. In-Home Pet Sitting: In the owner’s home, I follow their specific instructions for feeding, watering, and administering oral medications (pills or liquids) gently to minimize stress. I provide exercise, such as walks for dogs or interactive play for cats, tailored to their energy levels and preferences. For example, I might engage a Shiba Inu with a brisk walk or play feather games with a British Shorthair. I monitor health and behavior closely, offering reassurance to shy or anxious pets and maintaining a clean environment by tidying litter boxes or feeding areas. Dog Walking or Daily Visits: For dog walking, I customize routes and durations to suit each dog’s needs, from energetic Chihuahuas to senior pups, always carrying water and owner-approved treats. During daily visits, I provide feeding, play, or litter box cleaning, ensuring consistency. I send photo updates to keep owners informed. My gentle approach to medication administration and understanding of pet behavior ensure every animal feels loved and secure. I communicate regularly with owners to provide peace of mind, adapting my care to each pet’s personality and needs, whether furry, feathery, or finned.
About: I am a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) based in Milton Keynes, offering calm, reliable, and compassionate care for pets of all ages. I’ve spent years working closely with animals, and I love creating a safe, relaxed environment where they feel understood and genuinely cared for. My RVN background means I’m confident supporting pets with medication, senior‑pet needs, post‑operative routines, and recognising early signs of stress or illness. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, elderly, or has specific medical or behavioural needs, I adapt my care to suit them. I can also follow and carry out your training routine. I’m gentle, patient, and very attentive, and I always follow your instructions carefully. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same kindness and respect I’d want for my own. If you’d like to chat or arrange a meet‑and‑greet, I’d be happy to hear from you. I keep a flexible weekly routine, which allows me to fit pet care in comfortably and reliably. I plan my days around the pets I’m looking after, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, visits, and any extra needs. I’m also available for morning walks, which many pets enjoy as part of their routine. I never overbook, so your pet always gets calm, focused attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home: I follow your routines closely so your pet feels secure and settled. I take time to understand their habits, feeding schedule, favourite spots, and any medical or behavioural needs. As an RVN, I’m confident recognising early signs of stress or discomfort, and I always prioritise calm, gentle handling. I keep your home tidy and secure, and I send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in my home: I provide a quiet, relaxed environment with plenty of space for pets to settle in. I only take pets from one family at a time, so your pet receives my full attention and never has to worry about overcrowding or unfamiliar animals. I also have a very friendly resident cat who used to be a clinic cat — he’s calm, social, and used to meeting new animals in a gentle, controlled way. Introductions are always slow and safe, and I only allow interactions if everyone is comfortable. Your pet’s wellbeing comes first. I use my RVN experience to ensure safe handling, clean environments, and careful monitoring, while keeping everything warm, patient, and reassuring. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I aim to create a calm, predictable space where pets feel secure and understood.

“Orsi is a brilliant dog sitter! My pup goes to see Orsi 3 days a week and always comes away happy, exercised and socialised! She sends me photos throughout the day so that I can see what they have been getting up to and is flexible around my chaotic work schedule! I've used 3 other dog sitters before and Orsi has been by far the best! Very pleased with everything she does!”
“So happy I found Lucie to look after my doggie, 2nd visit and my dog Athena was so excited to see her I’m very relaxed when Lucie is looking after Athena, she genuinely cares and always sends updates, very reliable!”

Leanne and her family were so lovely, we instantly knew we could trust her with our fur baby. She's a natural and she has so much love for the doggies, she puts all of her love and care into them. Koko loved her and so did we, Leanne will definitely be our new dog sitter from now. Koko came home do happy and so tired from having the best day ever!!!!!

Perfect dog sitters for Phoebe. Nothing seemed to much trouble! We were so nervous to leave her with someone new but were reassured straight away by seeing a video and pictures of Phoebe playing and relaxing! We will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much :).

Kristina and her partner were excellent. They helped me out with a super last minute booking after an issue with another sitter. They took excellent care of my German Shepherd pup and even gave him a thorough brushing! 100% recommend and would book with again.

Khevana looked after my two dogs, Mango and Truffles, and did a fantastic job. Today, Mango wasn’t feeling well and had diarrhoea, but they handled it without any fuss and kept me updated so I knew he was okay. They’re clearly great with dogs and really care about them. I also really appreciated how flexible they were with timings. I felt completely at ease leaving my two in their care and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Milton Keynes on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,707 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Milton Keynes. About 88% of Milton Keynes 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 Milton Keynes 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 East 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 .
