Kelly was fantastic. I was on holiday so just needed a day without Teddy whilst I visited a couple of tourist attractions. Excellent communication and gave me some great ideas. Most of all Teddy was well cared for. He clearly had fun as he is sleeping. Thanks Kelly

About: Been around dogs most of my life:) Cared for a range including Golden retrievers, Cavapoos, Huskies, Malamutes, Border Collies, Daschunds, Pugs & Frenchies. Now that I live in England, I really miss having doggy company and would love the chance to care for and spoil some pups again! I can work from home and my hours are flexible to work around the pups needs when doing so! Plus I already require daily walks myself 😆 I’m afraid I can’t commit to open ended repeat walks/visits as availability fluctuates so requests would require an end date. Also for bookings much further away I may need to add a couple quid to the rate just to cover my travel (as Rover takes a fair bit!) but that can be discussed on a case by case basis :) I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying at your home, I’ll stick to their usual routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they’re well cared for. On walks, I keep things safe and go at their pace. My goal is to make sure your pet feels relaxed and loved until you’re back, tailoring to their individual needs! For stays in my own home, I should note that I have a housemate so it wouldn’t just be me around the dog.

About: Hi! I'm a reliable, caring, and responsible dog sitter who genuinely loves spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering routine medications, or simply providing plenty of love and attention, I'll care for your dog as if they were my own. I've always had pets, plus I have worked for various animal rescue organisations, here in the UK, Singapore and China, and have lots of experience in caring for and owning a dog. I'm committed to maintaining your pet's routine and keeping you updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind. Your dog's safety, wellbeing, and happiness are always my top priorities and I have a large doubled fenced garden for your dog to run around in safely. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I am retired and will be available throughout the day for your dog. When your dog comes to stay, they will be part of our family and loved and cared for as if they are our own. I will keep to your walking schedule and make sure your dog has plenty to keep them entertained. My home has a large, double-fenced garden, so there's lots of space to run around. Your furbaby will have a space on the sofa and the bed and will be looked after as if they were my own. I have 30+ years of experience, having owned my own dogs and worked with animal rescue organisations.

Milo had a fantastic day with Alex and his dog Kaia, we received plenty of updates, videos and photos throughout the day which kept us at ease knowing he was settling in well! Alex was extremely responsive and clearly communicated throughout the booking process and whilst Milo was at his house, giving us an early update to reassure us he was all good! He obviously had a great time as he’s been fast asleep since we got home didn’t want to leave when picking him up. Thanks so much Alex, Milo will be visiting again for sure!

About: I have been around animals/pets all my life and regularly look after family and friends dogs.I live close to a big field for runs and walks, your pet will be well looked after with me, the last dog I looked after did not want to leave me! I also have experience with dogs with challenging behaviour or whether they don't like other dogs etc and need to kept on the lead or need walks in quieter places with no dogs around. I also have experience with senior dogs who were blind. Hope to hear from you soon. I work term time in a school which means I have all the holidays off. In that time your pet will have all my attention. Can do weekends also. I have a large back yard which is fenced aswell as the front. I live very close to a large field. I can cater to any needs of your pet, they can sleep in their bed/crate but I am more than happy to let them in my bed, sofa etc, your pet can make themselves at home with me, like a home away from home. I don't have any pets myself and have no young children my kids are teenagers.

About: I've adored animals for as long as I can remember, especially dogs. Growing up around them, they’ve always been a huge part of my life and honestly never felt like “just pets” to me, they’re family. After losing my beloved Labrador last year, I started caring for other people’s dogs to help fill that quiet space, and I quickly realised how much joy it brought me. What began as helping friends and family turned into something I genuinely love, so much so that I decided to leave my fulltime job and pursue dog care full time. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone else, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Whether your dog loves long walks, cuddles on the sofa, playtime, or just calm company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved and happy while they’re with me. I’m reliable, patient and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend and make a new friend for myself 💕 I recently left my fulltime job so I can be available all day/night to look after/walk/play with your dog. They will have all my time I have a large fenced garden and yard so any fury friend will be safe and have lots of room to explore. In the village I live there are alot of great walks that is popular for dog walking so your dog would have plenty adventures if required.

Celine was absolutely great. She was really flexible with timings, really easy to book and was great with Hugo. She took him on two walks during the day so he was really happy and seemed to have great fun with Celine’s own dog so it was great he had some additional company during the day too. We would definitely recommend and will certainly use Celine again when we’re back here on holiday!

About: I've been around dogs my whole life, since I was just about able to walk actually. My family, both immediate and extended, has always kept dogs and I've always made it my mission to have a good rapport with them. I'm passionate about their care and making sure they're well looked after. I have a fully enclosed garden and live 5 minutes away from Cramlington nature reserve and some wide open fields below the hospital. We're big fans of enrichment games and general playing if your dog likes it. I do understand however, that every dog is unique and some may just want to chill out on their own. Please let me know as much information as you can give about your pet and their unique personality, likes, dislikes etc. I have experience with anxious dogs and trigger issues, as my own Springer, Bailey, is an anxious lad and has various triggers when outside in the world, so I've learned a lot firsthand with him. He is a great house dog, just the world is very overwhelming for him at times. I'm currently between jobs, so I am totally free to take care of and devote all my attention to your best friend as long as they are in my care. I have a totally enclosed garden and live very close to Cramlington Nature Reserve and a multitude of other walking paths. They will be entirely free to roam the house as they please, sit on the sofas or lounge in the garden (weather permitting, of course). They will be treated as my own when in my care. Plenty of enrichment games, be it a snuffle mat, folded up kitchen roll tubes to shred etc.

About: I’ve owned animals my whole life up until recently, after my senior pup sadly passed away! Good with puppies who need entertaining and tiring out, as well elderly pets who need a calming and more subdued presence. Looked after many of my friends pets such as cats and dogs - even my sisters tortoise! Confident with smaller animals too like hamsters and guinea pigs. Have a good inkling for training basics with puppies such as sit, wait etc. I work in the film industry and work away when I have a contract, things are very quiet at the moment so I have complete free availability to look after your pets and available at short notice for your needs! Depending on what your fur baby needs, I’ll be there! Playtime with a new young pup, someone to sit with your elderly dog and keep them company… long or short walks or someone to help with a little bit of basic training if you’re out the house all day. I’m a very easy going individual who is confident with dogs and provide the specific care they need

About: Me and my husband currently have two female dogs - a Labragotto and a Dalmatian They both love to play with other dogs and are very friendly with everyone. When I leave my pets in the hands of someone else, I expect them to receive a home-from-home experience. I therefore will do the same for any pets that I care for! I will also tailor the needs for each pet according to their owners wishes. For example, I allow my pets on the furniture but if you would prefer for your pet to not be on the furniture we can amend our lifestyle to suit that! I have always been around animals growing up, I looked after my two family dogs, horses, a cat, rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters! My husband is also well versed with animals, having grown up with a dog and a cat! 🐈‍⬛ I am a student midwife and so I am not working right now which means I have all the time to spend with four-legged friends 🐾 My husband works from home, so we are both on hand for separate walk routines if needed. Our dogs require a lot of exercise, we aim to walk at least 3 times a day but we can make adjustments accordingly for dogs with various fitness requirements! I have an unfenced garden but can but can put up temporary fencing. For toilet breaks I tend to put my dogs on leads to take them out anyways which helps their lead training. The house is fully safety proofed with no hazards. There is always someone home so your pet will never be left on their own.

Our 8 month old spaniel, Bonnie, had a very fun stay with Laura, Leandro and Sindy. We received lots of updates of Bonnie napping, chasing leaves and playing with Sindy! Laura and Leandro are natural dog people and we felt very comfortable leaving Bonnie with them. I would not hesitate to leave her with this lovely couple and would highly recommend them! Thank you, Laura and Leandro!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and enthusiastic dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve looked after dogs for friends, family, and neighbours over the years, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and ages. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I love being outdoors and spend lots of time walking, so your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, fresh air, and adventures tailored to their energy level. I also have a secure garden where dogs can safely play, explore, and relax. I understand that every dog is unique, and I’ll always follow your routine and preferences to ensure they feel comfortable and at home. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages for complete peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I currently work from home the majority of the week and can be flexible. I am more than happy to walk dogs several time a day, tailor my routine to fit theirs. I have a large fenced garden that is fully secure for your dog to enjoy. More than happy to accommodate different requirements, please just let me know in advance.

Diana agreed looked after our lab at very short notice after our usual sitter fell through. She was very responsive before the stay. He had a great time with her, she sent lots of photos so we could see what he was up to. She gave him lots of stimulation and love, and he got on with her dogs very well. He was very content, and very tired afterwards. Would definitely book Diana again, thank you

This was our first time leaving our puppy Coco with someone else, and Hayley was brilliant! She was so accommodating and understanding at how nervous I was about leaving her given she's just a baby. Hayley sent me photos throughout the day which was lovely, and best of all Coco was worn out when she came home! I would definitely recommend Hayley and we will absolutely be using her again 😀

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Northumberland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Northumberland on Rover is £23 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 426 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Northumberland. About 90% of Northumberland 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 Northumberland 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 North 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 .
