“Fantastic first experience!This was my first time using a pet sitter, and Elizabeth made the entire process seamless and stress-free. She was absolutely fantastic and kept me constantly updated with reassurance and photos. My dog, Forrest, settled in with her immediately and was incredibly comfortable. I highly recommend Elizabeth and will absolutely book her again!”
“Costa came back to us a very happy pup and was well cared for and loved in our absence. When we picked him up it was clear to see he was fond of Clare and her daughter after a week with them. Thank you Clare for caring for Costa for us while we were away.”
“Waffles had a fantastic time at day care, he loved playing with another dog and I had updates too. Bronwen was very professional and I had no worries leaving him in her care, I look forward to him staying for boarding as I know he will be well looked after.”
About: I’ve always had animals in my life and have extensive personal experience caring for pets. I’ve always owned cats and grew up around dogs, so I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m an NHS nurse, so I’m naturally caring, responsible and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet as part of the family. I work full-time locally as an NHS nurse, so I’m available for pet care on weekends, after 5pm on weekdays and during periods of annual leave. I’m reliable and organised and will always make sure I have plenty of time to give your pet the care, attention and companionship they need. As an NHS nurse, I’m responsible, caring and used to putting people’s wellbeing and safety first. I’ll bring the same level of care and attention to looking after your pet. I understand the importance of following routines, instructions and individual needs, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. Due to the nature of my profession I am DBS checked.
About: I have grown up with pets all my life, owning all different breeds from little to large. I work from home 4 days a week, giving me the perfect opportunity to share my safe environment with your pet! I work from home 4 days a week, giving me the perfect opportunity to share my safe space with your pet, I can take regular breaks to ensure all your pets needs are taken care of. I have a closed off garden to support all animals, I live in front of a big field where I can take all pets for a walk to burn off some energy if required.
“Amy looked after Buddy overnight whilst I was at a wedding. She was so good with him and he really enjoyed his stay. She kept me up to date throughout the stay with messages and pictures. This is the second time Amy has looked after Buddy and he’ll definitely be back for more visits soon! Thanks again Amy!”
“I would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur baby while they're away. Neil looked after our dog for five days while we were on holiday, and we couldn't have been happier with the care he received. He treated our dog as if he were his own, making him feel comfortable, loved, and right at home throughout his stay. We had complete peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. Thank you, Neil!”
About: Dogs have been a big part of my life since I was a child, and we have owned various breeds. Most recently we had a labrador, Ella who we sadly recently lost at 10.5years old. So I have experience caring for senior dogs and giving medications if required (I'm also a registered nurse). I've informally cared for family and friends dogs, taking them for walks, completing check-ins and having overnight stays at my home. Currently we haven't yet got another dog, so have a pet-free home with a large secure garden. Looking forward to getting to know your furry friends and taking them on some outdoor adventures 🐾 I do shift work so have several days free each week to be available for your dog's needs. For overnight stays I would need advance notice, and can only be accommodated in my own home. I have a large secure garden and able to provide 1:1 interaction for your furry friend. Also have a dog crate available and dog ramp for senior or those with mobility issues if going on some longer walks.
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with my dog cooper I was so nervous about leaving him but she reassured me I was sent photos everyday and she looked after him well. I will be using Lauren again fantastic!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate Mary is about animals. She took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, which instantly put me at ease. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which made such a difference and reassured me that Rosie was happy and well looked after. It was obvious Rosie felt comfortable, relaxed, and even a little spoiled! When I returned, everything was exactly as I’d hoped — a happy, healthy dog and a home that was just as I left it. I would absolutely recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my dog!”
“Jo and Jenny are absolute angels. I genuinely felt they had fallen straight from heaven 🥰. Hawk is a rescue from Romania, so it was incredibly important to find sitters who understood his needs. Jo and Jenny took so much time to really get to know him. Their incredible care started before the stay, when we all met up to walk in the forest just so Hawk could get acquainted. Jo collected Hawk from our house, while Jenny planned the adventures. They showed so much thoughtfulness by planning his entire stay around the heatwave. They kept him completely safe while still giving him the ultimate adventure. Hawk is super energetic, so they planned amazing adventures, including beach trips, then sent the cutest video of him digging in the sand, chasing seagulls and waves, for the first time in his life. They walked him in the forest and waterfalls, the pics show Hawk paddling, splashing and loving cold water rubs. I was kept updated the whole time with the most beautiful videos and pictures, Jo even walked him in the forest, before dropping him home. Hawk is sleeping soundly now, completely content after his amazing mini-vacation 🐾 It is so clear Jo and Jenny do this purely out of a selfless love for dogs and not money. Sadly (for them not me 🤣), their busy work arrangements mean they can't have a dog permanently right now, so they poured all that affection into Hawk. They absolutely adored him and he idolised them. Jo and Jenny are the most caring, gentle, and exceptional sitters you could ever wish for. Now that we have found them, our lives will be enriched, we can now go away without worry, knowing Hawk is in the best care imaginable. We have found the perfect sitters so are forever grateful for the Rover app. 🥰”
“This was the first time Chase stayed with Becca and I have to say the service was excellent, he had so much fun with the other dogs, also Becca was brilliant, very welcoming and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos, we will definitely be booking again 😁”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every dog. I treat each pet as if they were my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm patient, reliable, and comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. Whether it's an energetic puppy that needs consistency and positive reinforcement, or a senior dog that requires a slower pace, medication, or extra comfort, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit them. I believe in keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. My goal is to provide a fun, stress-free experience where your pet gets plenty of exercise, affection, and one-on-one attention in a safe and caring environment. I work five days a week, but I make time every day for pet care. Walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention are all part of my routine, ensuring every dog gets the care and companionship they need. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in their own home, I stick to their usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I also keep their environment clean and provide updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Dot had such a lovely time with Sarah and Rolo. It was lovely to see how quickly Dot had settled by receiving videos of Dot and Rolo together. I would definitely recommend Sarah and will be using in the future x”
“Really happy I chose Georgia to look after Miley. She was kind, flexible with times and dates and Miley absolutely loved being there. Her dog Otis was a perfect companion for Miley and I loved seeing the photos throughout her stay. Would highly recommend Georgia and will definitely be booking again myself.”
About: Me and my wife are both pet lovers, we have a 3 bedroom house with a fenced garden and fairly high walls so dogs can’t escape. We have a park nearby and I also drive if longer walks are needed. I used to work at a vets, so I’m very experienced with animals and have looked after many cats and dogs in the past. I will take good care of your pet and will adapt to their needs, making sure they’re comfortable and happy! I’m available every weekend at any time. I work full time mon-fri but can be free after 5pm. I work from home 3 days of the week so can try to be flexible for you and I also drive, so I’m able to take your dogs for long walks. I will make sure your pet is fed and their bowls and litter trays are cleaned. I would give them plenty of walks and I am happy to bathe them if required.

Georgia looked after my dog Buzz over a weekend. She was great and helped me out last minute. Buzz was very well cared for, you could tell he’d even been brushed when he came home as he was so fluffy. They dropped him off and he was crying at the window because he missed them. Forever grateful for helping me in a tough spot and for the incredible care they gave him xx

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rhondda Cynon Taf on Rover is £33.35 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Wales 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 .
