About: I've always had a love for animals and can't help but to fall in love with every one that I meet! There's many reasons why you may need someone to help out and I understand the importance of finding (and trusting) the right person to care for your beloved fur babies. All I can say is that I will care for and love your pet(s) like they were my very own. I have a cat myself who has completley changed my life for the PAWsitive and in turn I have taught myself all about how their minds work and what helps them to thrive. Love definitely isn't an issue, but I know there are other important factors - I'm very detailed orientated and organised and will make sure that the care your pet receives falls into what you, as their parent, want and need! Working in a vet has given me knowledge about dogs and cats that I can utilise to maintain a happy, wholesome and most importantly, safe environment! I am home most of the time, so my daily/weekly schedule is very flexible. You let me know what works for you and we can take it from there! I can follow any specific requirements, such as dietary needs, specific times for walks/feeding, health issues and medication etc, so that their routines aren't disrupted and there won't be any issues once you are reunited!
“Pedro was an amazing dog sitter! He took great care of my dog, providing updates and ensuring he was happy and comfortable. Highly reliable, friendly, and responsible. I would absolutely trust him again!”
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m a caring and reliable dog lover who would be delighted to look after your furry family member while you’re away. I understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, so I provide a safe, loving and comfortable home-from-home environment. Your dog will get plenty of attention, cuddles, playtime and regular walks, while keeping to their usual routine as much as possible. I’m happy to follow specific feeding instructions and accommodate individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated during their stay with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. ❤️ I treat every dog as if they were my own and want them to feel safe, settled and loved throughout their stay. I’d love to meet you and your dog before booking! I’m available full time for dog boarding and can offer walking services also. Myself and my husband both work from home so your dog will have around the clock love and affection! I have a fenced secure garden, I live near multiple fields which I have used for dog walking. There is also a local dog walking field which I can hire for those more energetic dogs who enjoy to be off lead. Although we allow dogs on the sofa and our bed, we can accomodate a crate too.
“We can’t recommend Maisy enough! From the moment we dropped Vinnie off, she made him feel completely at home and welcome. She played with him, fussed over him, and was so thoughtful about his needs — especially as he’s a rather lazy bulldog! Maisy sent us daily updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We’re so happy to have found her and will definitely be booking again. Thanks Maisy!”
“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.”
“Nadine is fantastic, she looked after our dog for a week and gave him a perfect home away from home. Lovely home suitable for our dog and Nadine is very experienced. I would highly recommend and looking forward to many more doggy holidays with Nadine and her family.”
“Goofy had a very joyful time at Shreya’s , specially his companion Riley. This was our second time with Shreya and she is very good will definitely book her again and recommend always”
“We are so happy with Victoria! They’ve taken care of our dog so well! He was so well looked after, walked loads, played loads and was never left alone. He also got on really well with their 2 doggies. He definitely had a holiday with them while we were away. Such a friendly family! Cannot recommend them enough!”
“Home from home for Archie. We were very impressed the way Frank fully understood Archie although he was only with him for 24 hours. Archie was truly spoilt and well looked after and we felt that he was safe and secure with Frank and Ellie his lovely Labrador. We are now looking forward to going away on holiday in June knowing that we have found Frank, who Archie adores., and we know he will be well looked after.”
“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.”
“Excellent sitters, took really good care of my German Shepherd pup. They communicated really well throughout and asked the right questions when they weren't sure! Did a great job given how hot it was too! Definitely would use again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Growing up with them has given me a natural understanding of their needs, behaviors, and unique personalities. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime at the park, or just keeping your pup company while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I'm currently working part time and have a plenty of time to take care of your pet and provide care, love they need. I have a park nearby for walks and play time. When you entrust me with your pet, their safety and comfort become my top priority. I provide a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment where your furry companion can feel relaxed, loved, and right at home.
“Couldn’t recommend Christina enough! Toto was so well cared for and had so much fun. They kept us updated with a lot of pictures and videos. Great dog sitter, we will be happy to book again!”
About: I've had dogs since I was about 10, with a variety of breeds including a bearded collie, retrievers, a cross-bred rescue and my all time favourites, labradors. I enjoyed helping my parents train guide dogs too, and have used those skills many times over the years, helping train friend’s dogs when there was a need. I've also got plenty of experience looking after other people's dogs, as friends have often asked me to either babysit, drop in or fully take in their dogs when they've been away, something I've always been very happy to do, the latest being a fun mix with a shitshu with attitude and his very laid back buddy, an Alsatian😄 I don't have dogs of my own at the moment, however I would love to help other dogs if needed and is something I really enjoy doing, sometimes along with my partner. We are both very outdoorsy and love a dog walk, in all weathers! I'm available to help with any services for dogs at weekends (Fri evenings through to Sunday evenings) as I work full time in the week. We live in a house which has a large enclosed garden, and at all times, the utmost care is obviously given, with all rules and requests strictly adhered to. Photos will happily be provided, and I aim to please! As far as I'm concerned, anything else is unacceptable, as it's how I'd want my pets looked after.
“Emily looked after our senior dog as if he were her own, she even slept downstairs with him so he wouldn’t be alone and confused, he was loved and cared for and came home a very happy dog.”
About: I have owned dogs all my life from rescue dogs to pedigree, nervous and very active to senior and puppies. We have a secure home in the village of Hackleton with a secure fenced garden, we have 2 dogs of our own with very different personalities and I am available full time to offer the best service to my clients and their dogs. I am available full time as a dedicated carer for your dog. I offer 24/7 care and your dog will never be left alone while in my care. Your pet will have full access to the garden and my home, the same as my dogs living in our home, they will be treated as one of our family!
“Sarah was absolutely brilliant, exceptionally accommodating and Blake seemed very happy in her lovely house for 3 days. I definitely recommend her and hope to use her again very soon.”
“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 ✨✨”
“Chester & Willow thoroughly enjoyed their overnight trial run 1st time away from home. Ann was absolutely fantastic and they are already booked in for their next stay. Would highly recommend.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Northampton is £35

Tilly is a nervous dog and is weary of strangers. However, Tilly was welcomed and made to feel at home when we dropped her off at Emma’s. Tilly was well cared for and we had regular updates on how she was doing. I felt comfortable in leaving Tilly with Emma and her family for her stay. I will be asking Emma to look after Tilly in the future.
Nadine is fantastic, she looked after our dog for a week and gave him a perfect home away from home. Lovely home suitable for our dog and Nadine is very experienced. I would highly recommend and looking forward to many more doggy holidays with Nadine and her family.
Great communication from Maria throughout Arlo's stay with her. He was very well looked after and we would definitely recommend to anyone looking for someone to look after their dog! We will definitely choose Maria if we need another sitter. Thanks for taking such good care of our Arlo!
We met two times before we went on holiday and we went Sent lots of photos and videos of there time together. And when we picked him he hugged. Kerrie has been extra attentive and if anyone is looking for a dog sitter I would highly recommend her. Kerrie was always sending pictures and what they were doing.
Maisy is amazing! I had a terrible time with the last dog sitter so was a bit worried at first but Maisy and her partner Kyle are just fabulous. He did well with his food and got plenty of walks. I was sent videos and photos with updates. I couldn't be happier with the care they gave to Teddy. Thank you and see you very soon 💞
We are so happy with Victoria! They’ve taken care of our dog so well! He was so well looked after, walked loads, played loads and was never left alone. He also got on really well with their 2 doggies. He definitely had a holiday with them while we were away. Such a friendly family! Cannot recommend them enough!
Several visits in with Christine and Brian was so content he barely registered I had arrived to collect him. It is important that we feel Brian is at ease with his sitters as that's when he shows people who he really is, and that is clearly the case and we cannot wait to drop him off again so he can hang out.
Highly recommended sitters. Our cockapoo Alfie has just returned from his third stay with Gosia and her partner. They are such a lovely couple who genuinely love dogs and know how to take good care of them. Alfie settles with them instantly and is always well looked after. Gosia also keeps us regularly updated with plenty of photographs so we can relax knowing he is in safe hands . Thanks again to you both xx

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!
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.

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.

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.
