“Traveling from London for the competition game to Northampton, my doge stayed with Jana for half day. She was so helpful and good communication person. Very clean house and look after my boy. Highly recommended”
“Samantha is a lovely person and looked after my puppy amazingly. My puppy enjoyed playing with her dog Jessie even though he can be nervous with dogs and she made sure they were both happy. He came back a very happy dog and was tired after all the playing. Samantha is great with communication and pictures so you’ll see plenty of updates. Will definitely be taking Wilbur back to her again!!”

“Bertie was very well looked after. Lovely photos sent of him making himself at home. Stacey gave a good tip for when Bertie bites his lead. Felt very happy he was so well looked after. I'm sure he's looking forward to his next visit this week. Thank you x”
About: The reason i am a pet sitter is because I love getting to know and looking after all animals of many shapes and sizes. This is my only job and I have been looking after my mums and friends dogs and cats for years but have only been doing this professionally for a year. I am available 6 days of the week but wednesday. I have always gotten along and connected deeply with animals, even when just meeting them. I dont have any issues I've your pet is hyperactive, shy, not vaccinated, or not spayed, but I would like prior notice. You'll be glad to know i have never had to deal with an emergency situation but on the off chance i will collect your vettinary service and pet insurance if applicable. When it comes to anxious pets i will let them come to me in their own time and ofcourse let them do the sniff test first. If you are considering me for looking after your fur baby in my home, please note, my partner likes to come with me and pet sit beside me and if you are not comfortable with that please let me know. I live with my partner in a flat and we have two kittens who are shy to begin with but very welcoming to new animals. I can't wait to meet your gorgeous fluff babies, I would be very happy to hear from you and to be considered to treat, play, and look after your pets. This is my current job so I have plenty of availability and time to play with your dogs and cats. I am available for all the pet care you need. I have a spacious and open living/dining room and my bedroom door is always open when boarding for pets, I work with my partner as its always good to have extra support if needed. If your pet needs crating, I dont provide that in my home and cannot do this, if I am looking after your pet in your home I am able to follow your pets routine, whatever it may entail.
“Caitlin connected with Ricco straight away and their bond was solid. Very professional and caring. Ricco seemed very happy when he was dropped off and picked up. Thanks Caitlin on responding to our last minute request x”
“Anna is simply amazing. From regular updates to the love, care and attention she shows to our Lucky, giving us peace of mind that he is having an amazing time while we are away. Thanks as always for being so great with our fur baby 🥰”
About: As a dedicated pet lover and proud owner of a lively Maltese named Luca, I understand the joy and companionship pets bring into our lives. Since welcoming Luca, I’ve discovered the true happiness animals add to my day-to-day life, and I often find myself connecting more with pets than people. Caring for Luca has taught me patience, understanding, and the importance of nurturing a pet's unique personality and needs. This deep connection drives my motivation to become a pet sitter, where I can extend the same level of love and care to other pets as I do with my own. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. With me, your pets will not only be in trusted hands but will feel like they are a part of my own family. Pet care is woven seamlessly into my week, making it just as essential (and enjoyable) as my morning coffee! Working from home means Luca is my little “coworker” most days, keeping me company and reminding me to take breaks (which usually means playtime or cuddles). Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my "away days," but I've made sure those are full of extra treats, comfy spots, and toys for Luca to enjoy while I'm onsite. On all other days, I’m here to provide all the attention he could want, from belly rubs to outdoor adventures. For other pets I’d be caring for, I bring the same level of attention and love. I work around their schedules, whether it’s feeding time, walks, or just time to snuggle. My daily routine with pets is as fun and flexible as they need, with Luca as the best assistant anyone could ask for! Living in a cozy one-bedroom home with a fenced garden gives me a perfect setup for pet care! The garden is a safe spot where pets can roam freely and explore without any worry. I love that there are parks nearby, so daily walks and a change of scenery are always on the agenda—great for stretching legs and sniffing new scents. Inside, I make the space as welcoming as possible with comfy spots to lounge, plenty of toys, and some tasty treats for rewards or just to brighten their day. With Luca’s stash of toys and our little routines, pets here can enjoy a mix of indoor comfort and outdoor fun, all with a loving companion to keep them company. Whether they’re looking for playtime or just a quiet spot to relax, they’ll feel right at home!
“Absolutely fantastic. ‘H’ was pulling me to get to the front door on his second visit and that says it all for me!! Zoe and family inc their fur babies are lovely. It’s like home from home and H loves it. Looking forward to our next visit! Wholeheartedly recommend without hesitation! You’re fur babies are in good hands 🐾💚 So glad I found you x”
“Toby had the best day with Nichole! It was the first time he had been left with anyone since having surgery so I was a little anxious but we were kept updated with photos and how he was doing throughout the day so I could relax knowing he was having a great time and was making himself at home. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of my rescue dog for 4 years now. He completely transformed from being scared and unsure to confident, friendly and playful doggie. He loves company so I’ve decided to start boarding and daycare services. I live in a house with a fenced garden and will welcome any type of dog: all sizes and age :) I’m currently working full time from home, Monday to Friday, with a long lunch break to walk the dogs. I spend a lot of time on walks and games with my doggie during the weekend. I have a fenced garden and one friendly, medium size dog to keep your fur baby company. The house is spacious and safe with outside cameras.
About: I've owned / lived with dogs my entire life,and some cats, I adore pets of all personalities, and even strangers dogs approach me so I like to think they adore me back.

I have a secure fenced garden and 3 bed home with a very friendly a social small dog, dogs are allowed full roam of the home and garden, I also live near an open field and a wood to provide dogs with stimulating walks or we drive them to somewhere like a country park.

Vicky and Tom are a super chilled couple, which is perfect for my anxious senior dog. I got plenty of updates and photos throughout the day and I have never seen him so relaxed considering he had only met them once before. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will definitely be contacting them again for future bookings.
I had to arrange for a dog sitter at short notice, Me and my dog (Mav) met with engin for a meet and greet and felt Engin was very welcoming. He has a big garden where Mav could play and relax. Engin is a lovely person who is an animal lover and that was seen in his interaction with Mav. Mav had no restrictions in his house, he was free. Sometimes Mav needs to be encouraged to eat and engin did a great job making sure Mav had his food. I left mav for 24 hours with Engin several days as i had work, and everytime i met with Mav, he was calm and relaxed. I wish Engin and his family all the very best. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Julia and Ged looked after Otto and were absolutely brilliant. They gave him the space he needed to settle and were really patient with him. They took him on a lovely long walk where he could get some energy out and have a nice time. Would recommend highly and they are lovely people too. Millie their dog is lovely as well.

There are 1,261 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Northampton. About 89% of Northampton 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 Northampton 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 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.
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 .
