“Una is excellent. This is the first time that I had used a boarding service, and so pleased that it was with Una - from meeting her with her dogs and seeinbg how easily she interacted with them, to the videos and pictures that she supplied whilst our dog was with her, all round superb. Sonny came back full of life and had clearly been sell cared for. Have no hesitation in recommending Una, and will have no hesitation in boarding with her in future.”
“Thank you so much - Betty has a lovely stay with Stacey and her family. Regular updates and she settled very well. Will definitely be using Stacey again and would highly recommend.”

“Was really grateful to Caitlin and her partner for having my dog while I went on holiday. My dog has issues with separation anxiety and some other specific needs like needing medication and they were very accommodating and helpful and I had full peace of mind that she was in good hands while I was away. We were also able to visit beforehand which helped her settle in better. Will definitely ask them to have her again when I'm away and would strongly recommend! When I picked my dog up she was very relaxed and happy and think she misses them now she's home!”
About: With nearly 9 years of experience managing a national pet retail store, I’ve gained extensive knowledge about pets and their care. Having grown up with dogs since I was just 9 months old, I can’t imagine life without a canine companion! I’m honest, reliable, and trustworthy, ensuring your pets are always in safe hands. LGBTQ+ friendly. Not that it should matter anyway! I’m adventurous, energetic, and outgoing, so after every walk, your dog will be happily tired out. I also offer house visits for other pets and have hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and small animals. Whatever your pet’s needs, I’ve got you covered! I treat every pet with the same love, care, and attention I give my own. I have two lively cockapoos of my own, so I’m used to balancing energy and attention to keep pets happy and engaged. As a qualified dog groomer, I also bring additional expertise to caring for your pets. My dogs and I regularly participate in training classes, including hoopers and scent work, so I’m always learning and staying active in the pet community. We have a fully enclosed garden and access to nearby secure dog-walking fields, along with plenty of toys and activities to keep your pet entertained. Your furry friend will enjoy the same games, care, and love my own dogs do, creating a real “home away from home” experience. Feel free to drop me a message to learn more—I’d love to help care for your beloved pets!
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have always seen dogs as part of the family. A dog really is a girls best friend and since loosing mine in January it has became even more special for me to spend time with your fury family members. I am available everyday to offer walks, drop ins and day/overnight care. My day revolves around nice walks, cafe trips & making sure your furry friends have fun! I have a fenced garden. No other animals at the property. Plenty of space for animals to have their own space for sleeping/feeding if needed.
“Emilia took a last minute request for overnight boarding for our puppy Frank. She updated us with photos and videos showing Frank having a lovely time. He loved being there so I would definitely book with her again”
“Pedro was fabulous with our dog, and looked after him as though it was his own dog. He came home relaxed and happy even though we'd been away for over a week. I'd 100% recommend Pedro.”
“Chloe was very much at home with Caroline. Caroline walked Chloe with her own pet dog - which is great socialisation, her location benefits from some great green open space. Caroline’s dog and Chloe both played very well together and settled into sharing the dog play-room. We’ll be using Caroline’s services again.”
“I was very happy that i book Frank and his wife as dog carer for my lab. They are outstanding people and our lab Gucci was very happy in their house. I am really can recommend their service to every dog. If i can I give ten stars not just five.”
“Hannah and Andy were absolutely brilliant - Good communication, did a pre-stay visit to make sure everything was okay - They have a lovely enclosed garden and Beryl and their dog made friends immediately - No hassle, they updated me with pictures and comments, no issues with drop off or pick up, will certainly use them again if necessary.”

“Anastasija was able to accommodate our request on a very short notice. She and her family were very welcoming and friendly. Her daughter is the cutest (and really educated on boundaries with new animals!). I would love to choose her as our sitter going forward! Morpheus was calm, warm and very well taken care of.”

Caitlin and her partner were again great at taking care of my little dog, Leah. I got photo updates and find she is always in a really good eating routine when she comes home despite being a very fussy eater normally! I can tell she really enjoys her time there. Thanks!
Absolutely astonishing care 👌 Callisto spent a few nights boarding with Carrie, Nemo and Archer whilst my partner and I were on holiday. Wonderful meet and greet beforehand where we explained how Callisto was with different family members for the start, and end of our holiday, but she was excellent in being a part of the planning, settling anxieties and being a 10/10 hilarious, compassionate human who is outwardly disability and LGBTQ+ friendly. We received photos, videos and updates throughout Callisto's stay and we are very very happy with the care, companionship and adorable play and nap time she got. Carrie is a diamond, as are Nemo and Archer. Very highly recommend ✨✨
Can not express how grateful I was for Kerry! She made the whole process so easy before and during. Lots of communication, photos and videos! My To y had such a good time I’m not sure he really wanted to come home 😊 thank you to Kerry and her family for looking after my boy so well
Laura and Simon were fantastic! We have an anxious dachshund and always worry about leaving him but after Rufus met Laura and Simon we knew there was nothing to worry about. They made sure Rufus had a great day filled with play and cuddles! The photo and video updates put us at ease. We would definitely book with Laura and Simon again!
Vicky and Tom are very caring for Empress. It’s always a challenge to provide care to a new dog for boarding, especially additional challenge under the heatwave of over 30 degrees. Vicky and Tom prepared Empress cooling mat and fan to keep her cool under the extreme scorching weather. Very grateful to have their love and patience with Empress who is always an anxious dog, but she feels safe and settled with them. Thank you very much for the photos and the updates. I would highly recommend Vicky for boarding and I definitely will seek her help again for Emoress’ next boarding😊 Thank you very much Vicky and Tom🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Very appreciate your help the last 2 nights to take care of Empress🐶🐶🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰😊😊
Kerry looked after Harry overnight until the next evening. I am on holiday and I had arranged for a friend to pick Harry up and carry on with his boarding. Unfortunately they were later than anticipated at picking Harry up, but Kerry was excellent and said it was not a problem. I would certainly recommend Kerry and I would definitely let Kerry look after Harry again.
Charlotte and Dan were amazing from the off set! The communication from the messages to sending photos of our boy throughout his stay was so reassuring. Bruno had the best time on his mini holiday! Would 100% recommend and will use Charlotte and Dan again in the future! Thankyou! 😊
Maisy again looked after our dog Ralph for several nights giving us regular updates to let us know how he was doing. As well Maisy sends photos and videos to show he’s settled in and happy! Couldn’t wish for a more caring person and will definitely use her again. We go away and know that Ralph is safe content and getting lots of loving cuddles and walks. Thank you Maisy!
I was anxious to leave my pet with someone as this was my first experience with a sitter but Adrienne and Lyle made me feel at ease from the very beginning. Henry can be a nervous dog and has his quirks but they listened and did their best to understand everything I had to say about him. Throughout Henry's stay we remained in contact and I received regular updates and photos of Henry throughout which made me feel much more relaxed seeing he was having a good time and was in good hands. Adrienne and Lyle followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to make Henry feel at home during his first stay. I would strongly recommend them as pet sitters as they are very knowledgable and equipped and it's apparent they love animals. Thank you so much!

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 pet to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
