Since we work from home full-time, We can easily provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring your pet always feels cared for. Being home also allows us to adapt to any special needs or schedules they might have. In our home, we provide a safe, secure environment with a fenced garden where pets can play freely.

“We’ve been using Baz for a couple of months now and he’s is absolutely amazing! Winnie absolutely loves him and Paisley and he looks after her with so much love and care 🩷 We really couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter!”
About: I’ve been in love with animals since I was little, I’ve studied animal behaviour and biology for three+ years at university and did and animal management course in college. I myself have three kitties who are my life, now I moved to university I don’t get to see them as much so I’m wanting to fill that void and look after/walk other peoples babies. I’ve walked dogs throughout my childhood and into being an young adult due to so much work experience with college and university, I think my experience will keep your mind at ease because I have a log of experience with dogs. Right now I’m part time working, I have specific days off which are Tuesday and Wednesdays. When I am working I had 4-5 hour shifts so can fit around that. My shifts are done couple weeks in advance so I can schedule in advance if needs be If it is for a couple hours board I have space for a crate if needed, I do live in an apartment and would only be able to take on small dogs but I have near a lot of fields and walking paths I will be able to take the dog out as frequently as you would like. Walking wise I love walking myself so your pup will get the exercise it needs whilst you are away
“Rosie is great. I used her services twice and I was very happy with the communication and updates/pictures/videos. She is very caring, gentle and kind. Benny is having a great time at her house while playing with Poppy. I would definitely recommend.”
“Excellent service, Leah has been lovely and friendly. Welcoming and dog friendly environment for Otis. Leah was so sweet towards Otis and took him on a good walk, which he always loves! We feel confident leaving our dog with Leah and would definitely use her service again.”
“Fantastic service by Emma, Chester and Nash got on like a house on fire very professional, also managed to get him to do lie down ( we’ve been trying for a while, he just ignores us 😂) could recommend enough definitely use again for days out with the kids”
“Thanks so much Jamie, Ted had a great day with you and it was a massive relief for me. I was able to enjoy my nephew’s wedding without worrying 🙏❤️ We will see you again, I’m sure. You are highly recommended. Jane and Ted 🐶”
About: Always had a dog in my life. Whether that be my own or other people's. Since a young age, I have looked after dogs of all kinds. At age 10 I started walking neighbours dogs. At age 12 I helped bring up a litter of pups and watched the mummy give birth. At age 15 I got my own puppy he was a cross breed and he was a very reactive dog but I trained him to be a good boy. At age 17 to 19 I rescued a female staffy and an American bulldog from the kennels. Had a break and then bought my simba when he was 8 weeks old he is friendly and well behaved and he's the best company. I tell him all my secrets and he has never spoke a word 😂. I've no commitments other than the school run and a typical day with simba is breakfast then a nice long walk in the fields. Lots of playing fetch and exploring. Simba then likes to have a nap. He wakes up has his dinner then wants to play catch or fetch. We spend lot of time in the garden if the weather's OK. When the kids come home simba likes to play with them he enjoys ripping up paper and plastic wrappers just making a mess really 😂 it's all good aslong as he's happy and id treat your dog as if it's my own ☺️ they are in safe hands. We then go on another walk to the park after tea then we come home and get cosy. The garden is fenced. Simba can also keep your dogs company. The children are gentle and love dogs. Please don't ask me to look after your dog if it is NOT OK left alone as I will have to be out on the school run during the week twice a day. I'll never leave dogs in the same room alone. We as a family look forward to meeting your fur babies.
“Rudi’s had another super time with Amy and he was so excited to see Skye when we arrived. They’re such a friendly couple and we feel so happy that our pup is in great hands. Would highly recommend and thanks again!”

About: Hi! I’m Shannon, I’m from Virginia but moved over here 7 years ago. I have been a dog owner for the past 20 years and currently have a jack x dachshund named Norman who also loves to make friends, play and go on long walks. I am experienced in caring for all ages of dogs, administering medication, and adhering to specific dietary needs. In my house, dogs are family and can snuggle on the couch or play in the fenced in garden. Your dog would be in safe and happy hands with us :) I work from home so am always available for drop in visits and walks. Your dog will not be left alone, as there will always be someone here (me or my husband) to ensure your dog is cared for :) I have a cheeky jack x dachshund named Norman who is super friendly. We have a fenced in garden to play in. We want your dog to feel as comfortable as possible so we allow dogs on the bed and sofa for snuggles. We love to explore new areas and go on long walks. I am currently on maternity leave until September, which I will then be working from home so am able to take the dogs out for lunch time walkies and evening. I treat dogs as if they are my own, they become family! We have lots of snuggles and playing. We enjoy taking the dogs on walkies and exploring new places.
“Lydia was great with Benji, he settled very quickly and was very happy (and tired) when we picked him up. Lydia kept us updated and was very easy to communicate with. Would definitely book again.”

Leah is amazing, she is incredibly responsive and provides regular updates which keeps my mind at ease. Toby absolutely loves her and I can tell he has a fantastic time with Leah. He is such an energetic boy but he seems to be relaxed with Leah which is great. I can’t recommend her enough, whenever we need our pooch looking after Leah is the first person I go to! Thanks so much.

There are 2,186 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Ribble Valley. About 87% of Ribble Valley 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 Ribble Valley 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 West 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 .
