About: I have owned small and large dogs my whole life. I currently have a 4 year old husky x chow chow. I work from home so I am always able to give attention to your dogs! I work from home, and will be able to give your pets all the attention they could ever want! My home overlooks a great reservoir for walks and leads to Healy dell. I have a secure garden and a friendly husky mix who loves other dogs. If your dog is not happy we are able to separate them, however it is preferable that your dog is friendly. I am happy to do meet and greets so our dogs can meet.
About: I’ve always loved animals and really enjoy spending time with dogs. We have a dog of our own, a 20-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer, so I’m very used to energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise, attention, and routine. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your dog is being properly looked after while you’re away. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and keeping to your dog’s usual routine as much as possible. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own, and I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you know how they’re getting on. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work from home, so I’m around during the day and able to give dogs plenty of company, attention, toilet breaks, and care. We also have our own 20-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer, so daily walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping a good routine are already part of everyday life for us. We especially love weekend walks with the dog, so I’m very used to active dogs who enjoy getting out, having a good run around, and then relaxing afterwards I know it’s a big deal trusting someone with your dog, so I’d always look after them like I do my own. At home, I’d make sure they’re safe, comfortable and kept to their usual routine as much as possible — walks, food, toilet breaks, sleeping arrangements and anything else they’re used to. We have a 20-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer, so I’m used to active dogs and would always make sure introductions are done slowly and carefully. We have a fenced garden and our dog crate trained too

“Andreia is absolutely wonderful! She looked after our dog, Toby, with so much care, attention, and affection. When we picked him up, it was like watching two old friends sitting together watching the sunset 🌅 they clearly bonded so well. You can instantly tell that Andreia is a genuine animal lover. She’s kind, trustworthy, and someone you can feel completely confident leaving your pet with. We’re so grateful to have found her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with my aunt, who worked as a dog sitter in her retirement, I learned early on how to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also spent six months volunteering at a dog training centre, where I helped with both puppies and older dogs — from basic obedience to confidence-building exercises. Over the years, I’ve dog-sat for friends and family, making sure every pet felt safe, loved, and at home while their owners were away. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every dog I look after like part of my own family. I currently work part time from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pups during the week! On certain weekends I am out of the house from 9am-5pm however we have a work from home family so there is always someone in the house to keep your pups occupied and give them toilet breaks! When caring for pets, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved — whether they’re in my home or their own. At my home, I have a secure fenced garden where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time. I also live very close to a fully fenced field, which is perfect for walks, playtime, and exercise. I have a friendly dog who loves meeting new furry friends and is great at keeping them company. I always follow each owner’s routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk times, and any special care instructions — to make sure every pet feels at home and well cared for.
“Big love for Alison! So great with the boys. So accommodating once again! The boys now automatically dragging me in the direction of her home tells you everything you need to know!”
“Excellent communication before and during Murphy’s day with Kayley. Felt totally assured while he was there and got plenty of updates! Looks like he had a gorgeous time and I will definitely re-book in the future!”

About: I have over 16 years of experience caring for my own cat, who has been a part of my life since I was young. Taking care of her through every stage of her life — from a playful kitten to a senior cat — has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to respond to the changing needs of animals as they age. In addition to my own pet, I also regularly help friends take care of their dogs when they are away. I'm familiar with feeding routines, walking schedules, and providing companionship to ensure the pets feel safe and comfortable. These experiences have deepened my understanding of animal behavior and strengthened my commitment to providing attentive and compassionate care. I am working part-time as a teaching assistant, so l have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets on weekdays or weekends. I can care for pets in the owner's home and stay in close contact to provide updates. I do my best to follow the owner's schedule and instructions to ensure the pet receives the best possible care.

This was Cookies first Doggie Day Care outing. However I didn't need to worry he was looked after brilliantly by Rachel and Wilf! In fact I know he can't wait for his next doggie day care appoinment with Rachel and his new friend Wilf! During the day it was easy to contact Rachel to see how Cookie was getting on but I didn't need to worry as Rachel sent loads of updates. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rachel for your Doggie Day Care needs knowing your pet will be in really safe hands. I also know that Cookie would back me up on this but he can only lick me on the ear!!!
Jamila was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Rodney was really well looked after and the opportunity to play with other dogs. We were provided with lots of lovely photos and videos throughout the two days. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be sending Rodney to stay again 😀

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Rochdale on Rover is £25.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 2,659 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Rochdale. About 87% of Rochdale 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 Rochdale 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 .
