“Alison is a lovely lady and along with Alan they both obviously love dogs. They sent photos during Rinka's stay, showing her out on walks and snuggled up on the sofa. They were very easy to communicate with. I will definitely be booking Alison again.”
“Simona made our dog sitting experience very straightforward. She made sure we had the opportunity to meet before Myst actually stayed. We were sent a few updates during Myst's stay. Myst seemed very relaxed when we picked her up.”
“Maria and her children looked after Dexter for 3 nights whilst I was away on holiday. Dexter was upset on the first night and Marie’s comforted him to make sure he settled in quickly. Her children were great with him too and I received updates during his stay. Thanks for looking after him so well”
“Jaine and Marllon were amazing with our Melody! She stayed with them overnight and was so well looked after. They kept us updated with photos, videos, and messages, which made us feel totally at ease. It was clear she felt right at home, had fun and attention! They’re super sweet, caring, and responsible — we’ll definitely leave Melody with them again and totally recommend them!”
“Can’t Thank Tara enough for the way she took care of Bruno over the weekend. He was very well looked after. I was updated with messages and pics of him. Thank you again x”
“Pep had a great stay with Jasmine. They made him feel very welcome and it was great to receive lots of photos so we had peace of mind. Jasmine was very responsive in advance of the stay, checking to see if there were any particular requirements for Pep. Would definitely recommend!”
“Cloud is a very clever dog and I am quite sure he knew where we were heading on the train. The train dorrs opened and he almost leapt into Jo's arms he was so pleased to see her. I think Jo was rather pleased to see him too! Absolutely no qualms about leaving Cloud with Jo - in fact I've just requested another stay.”
“Colette and Rich were both brilliant. I could relax during my holiday knowing that Sienna was well looked after. Had numerous updates and pictures for peace of mind. I'll 100% be using them both again in the future if they can put up with Siennas energy again. Thank you both so much”
“Can I firstly just say Jessica and her family are amazing 💞!! We left our little Patterdale Noodles 🐕with Jessica for 5 days, she agreed to have her at very short notice and was absolutely brilliant with her. We had never left Noodles with anyone other than family before so we're a little worried, but I can say she was truly amazing with her, she set my mind at reat as soon as I met her and when we saw her whole families true love for dogs, we knew she was a perfect match for us and Noodles. We had absolutely nothing to be worried about. Jessica sent me pictures/videos daily and updates on what she was doing, how she was, and she was always there if I just wanted to check in on Noodles. She was so happy and playful when we picked her up so I know so was in excellent hands and was looked after like one of Jessica's family. I will definitely be sending Noodles there again as she loved her time with Jessica and her beautiful family and I would highly recommend anyone to let her look after their little treasures. Thank you so much Jessica, you and your family are gorgeous and an extra special 😘😘😘🐾🐾🐾 from Noodles who misses you all lots already xxxxx”
“It was a perfect experience. Very nice people. Jimmy had a really good time. Just like two days of holiday. Very good communication. I don't even know what to say. All great. Many, many thanks 😊”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. My family and friends have always relied on me to take care of their pets when going away I do work full-time Monday - Friday. I get 1 hour's lunch break around 12pm. Weekends vary from going on long walks or in the gym to spending time with family and friends. I'd ideally be looking for weekend pet care, however if your pet could last 8-12 & 1-5 on their own then I can accommodate midweek care I have a fully fenced large garden and open fields just a 5-minute walk from my house perfect for taking your fur baby on a good walk. I don't have any pets of my own, if your pet is crate trained, I can also work with this
“Hayley looked after our border collie, Bella for 11 days while we were on holiday. From the initial contact she replied to messages quickly was friendly and accommodatiing to any requests and after the "meet and greet" I had no concerns about Bella being well looked after. Hayley sent us regular messages and photos to show Bella was living her best life! I would have no hesitation in recommending Hayley to anyone and would entrust our dog with Hayley again in the future. Thank you for giving us the peace of mind that Bella was ok so we could enjoy our break.”

About: I have most weekends available for boarding at my home. I have a dog of my own who is very very friendly and gets on with all dogs she meets. She loves to play and she will share her toys!! Due to her not being neutered I do not accept male dogs at the moment. I would love to take care of your dog in my home, perhaps you need a weekend break. I have a genuine passion for dogs and there will be lots of love, care and treats available. I do not drive so your pet would need to be dropped off and picked up at agreed times :) I work during the week and have my own little sweetheart, 🐾 I am available at weekends and some Friday nights can be agreed also with notice. I have a small terraced house with small secure garden for toileting. I am happy to walk your dog at the local church/park a few mins down the road where there is plentiful grass and space to roam.
“Jessica was absolutely brilliant with our dog Ben! She looked after him overnight for us the night before our wedding, which gave us one less thing to worry about during such a busy and important time. She was so caring and went above and beyond by even bathing Ben for us! He came back happy, clean and clearly very well looked after. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after him, and we would definitely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Thank you so much! 🐾❤️”
“I had a wonderful experience with Carleigh. She took excellent care of Jomas and kept me updated throughout his stay with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It was so lovely to hear Jomas had so much fun playing with her adorable dogs. It was clear Jomas was well cared for, happy, and treated like part of the family. I truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave Jomas. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you so much-I hope to see you again soon!😊”

Alison and Alan are fabulous, our Dog was treated like one of the family, he was taken on lots of walks to many different places and we were sent lots of photos which showed how content and happy his stay was, they really treated him like he was there own, as long as they are offering this service we will always use them and no one else as he is our world and we know he’s going to a family we can trust and look after him how we do. Thank you again for looking after Ted
This was our first time leaving Baxter with anybody outside the family and we had also very recently lost his sister, who he was due to board with, so there was added stress on my part about leaving him while we went away. Colette was amazing, and made sure that she got to know Baxter before he stayed with her and Rich. She ensured that Baxter was comfortable with their surroundings prior to his stay. We went for walks together, and he went to stay with them for a full day before his week long stay. Any worries were completely dissolved when we received our daily updates and pictures of what Baxter was getting up to, from joining in with Colette's daily yoga routine, to pictures of him enjoying his walks with Reggie and Tyler, we could tell that Baxter was thoroughly enjoying his time with them. We will defiantly be using Colette again, and I would highly recommend her and Rich to anybody.
I would deffinetly use again and would happily recommend! Straight from the first meet and greet I could tell my dog Piper was going to have an amazing time, brilliant space, garden was perfect and secure! Lots and lots of great toys, lovely big dog bed! All the way through the stay I had regular videos, photos and updates, was so lovely to see how happy and well looked after Piper was. I cant praise Danielle and her partner enough, thank you and will deffiently will use again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Newcastle-under-Lyme on Rover is £34.5 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 2,094 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Newcastle-under-Lyme. 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 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.
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 .
