About: I was raised in farmhouse where we used to have many animals. Pets were treated as proper family members, not only addition to our house. As a dog lover, I would like to provide real, loving home for your little fella while you are away, so you can enjoy your stay without any worries. PS. your dog will enjoy it too ! 😊 Currently, I stay at home with our little boy, so we have plenty of time to take care of new quest in our home. Me and little Jacob would love to have some company to fill our day with walks and play time. I am available 7 days a week. We have got big, properly fenced garden and plenty of free time- that's the best combination 😊If you have got any questions, please feel free to ask.

About: I am currently a full time speech and language therapy student but I am doing this for the animals so I know I will make time. I'm free on evenings and weekends fully and I can fit in morning/lunchtime visits. I have my own flat which is roomy but it will mean that the animal only has to get used to and trust me. When I'm in your home, I try to adapt and follow your expectations and ideas as I know that everyone is different and has different levels of comfort of trusting someone in their house. I will water your plants and open the blinds but generally I try to leave it just as you left it.

About: I bring more than just love for animals, I bring a lifetime of experience. Having shared my life with both cats and dogs for over 40 years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage, from their first clumsy steps to their golden years. Friends and family always count on me as their go-to pet sitter when they travel or host guests, because they know their fur-babies will be treated like my own. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddles on the sofa, or gentle care for older pets, I offer reliable, thoughtful, and genuine companionship. When I’m not buried in books, I’m happiest spending time with furry friends. Since I only work part-time in academia, I have plenty of free hours to dedicate to walks, cuddles, and check-ins. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that means early-morning walkies, evening playtime, or cozy overnight care. In my home, pets get the full “grandma’s house” treatment; cozy, relaxed, and just a little bit spoiled. They’re welcome everywhere: on the sofa, on the bed, or curled up at my feet while I read. I have a little backyard where we can enjoy fresh air and shade, and just a short walk away are the parks, perfect for ball games, stick-chasing, or gentle strolls. Cats are just as welcome here, whether they prefer a quiet nap in a sunny spot, brushing sessions, or a bit of playful pouncing. When I care for pets in the owner’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent and their environment safe, as if you’d never left. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, feeding, playtime, or simply quiet companionship, I treat every pet as though they were my own, with love, respect, and lots of attention.

About: I grew up in a household with both dogs and cats, and like I always say, a house without them is not a home. They are our "other" children. You can rely on me to love your pets as if they were my own, to care for them, play with them, walk them, bathe them, brush them, give them their medication. My current work is from home, and part time, so I feel like I have all the time in the world, and not much to fill it with, now that my child is grown up. My garden is spacious and fenced, and inside my home pets are allowed everywhere. Unless otherwise specified by the owner, they sleep on my bed, lay on my couch, play with my child's old plushies.

About: I grew up with a dog as our family pet, and trained and looked after her as I became a young adult. Although we don't have a dog as a family pet now, I often care for and walk family and friends dogs (especially when they go on holiday). I am the father of an active family (two teenage daughters) who love being outdoors, going for regular walks in the countryside, so having a dog to care for would be the perfect fit for me. Currently, I work from home every day of the week, so timing will not be an issue for me. I can be flexible and work around your needs. I do not currently own a dog. We care for friends and family dogs at our house from time to time. We do have a pet Lizard!

Full Time Pet Professional.
I have got the patience and the expertise. I'm a Sheffield local of 12 years with a lifelong passion for animal care and a big heart currently missing a canine companion. My deep understanding and love for pets comes from years of hands-on experience. Back in Italy, my family's American Pitbull Terrier, Khabib, was my energetic best friend. We'd enjoy multiple walks daily, often covering 3-4 miles at a time to satisfy his wonderful, lively spirit. I truly miss those walks. I'm also experienced with cats, having cared for our two majestic Maine Coons, Lilith and Satanas. This included daily playtime, gentle brushing, and all the affection they could handle, they always chose my bed to sleep on at night! The main goal with dogs is to know what’s their motivation, it can be the ball, food or something else once you gain control of that your are the Boss, Dogs needs constant leadership in the young ages, and I’m very good instructing discipline and reward their good behaviour with certified first quality treats. Will offer energetic, long walks tailored to your dog's needs, or slow calm strolls to the old or perhaps not so sporty friends. Loving care, playtime. A natural, calming bond animals sense my genuine care and feel at ease. Bonus: As a photography enthusiast, I love capturing pets in their element. I'll happily provide free, beautiful snapshots of your pet enjoying their time with me.

I would be honoured to provide trustworthy, enthusiastic care for your beloved pets. Ready to give your pet a new best friend for walks and cuddles? Get in touch

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with both large and small breeds, from German Shepherds to little terriers. I currently have a 6-month-old Sprocker Spaniel, so I’m very familiar with the energy, enthusiasm, and affection that dogs bring into our lives. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely love, whether that’s taking them on long walks, playing with them, or simply making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to know their pet is in safe, caring hands. Alongside caring for healthy, active dogs, I also have experience looking after senior dogs with mobility issues, ensuring they receive the patience, support, and extra care they need. I’ve cared for rescue dogs, helped build confidence in dogs struggling with social anxiety, and supported dogs with medical conditions, including epilepsy, always following owners’ guidance and routines closely. My experience with dogs of different ages, temperaments, and needs has helped me become adaptable, attentive, and confident in providing the individual care each dog deserves. I work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide attentive pet care throughout the day. I have my own dog, so caring for pets is already a big part of my daily routine. We enjoy three walks a day (one long walk and two shorter walks), along with playtime, training sessions, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddles. I like to pay close attention to each dog’s personality, energy levels, and mood so I can tailor their day to what they enjoy most and what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where pets are treated like part of the family. I take the time to get to know each dog’s routine, preferences, and needs to help them feel secure and settled. Whether caring for pets in my home or in their owner’s home, I ensure they receive regular exercise, playtime, mental stimulation, fresh water, feeding according to instructions, and plenty of affection. I always monitor how a dog is feeling and adapt activities to suit their energy level and comfort, while maintaining a safe and trustworthy environment at all times.

“I can’t recommend Leyton highly enough. Sid stayed with him for doggy daycare during the weekdays while I was away on holiday, with my partner dropping him off on his way to work and collecting him at the end of the day. Sid is a Staffy and a strong dog, so one of the things that was important to me when choosing someone was finding a sitter who was confident and comfortable looking after and walking a bigger, stronger dog. I had absolutely no worries with Leyton. Sid clearly loved his time there. He had walks, plenty of playtime and always came home happy and completely worn out, which is definitely a good sign! Leyton also fed him his morning and evening meals and gave him his medication, which made things so much easier for us. I really appreciated getting a lovely update at the end of each day telling me what Sid had been up to and how he’d got on. It was very reassuring being away and knowing he was happy and being properly looked after. Sid was unfortunately attacked by another dog while out with my partner over the weekend. When he went back to Leyton on the Monday, Leyton took such good care of him and kept a close eye on him, which I really appreciated. It was also obvious that Leyton genuinely enjoyed having Sid there, rather than it simply feeling like a dog-sitting service. Sid clearly felt comfortable and happy with him too. We’ll definitely be using Leyton again, not just for holidays but for the odd day when we’re going to be out for a long time and don’t want Sid home alone all day. Highly recommended. Thank you, Leyton, for taking such good care of our boy! 🐾”

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have grown up with dogs throughout my life, including Bruno the Alsatian, Smudge the Lurcher, Carter the Husky and Finley the Working Cocker Spaniel. Having cared for dogs with very different personalities, sizes and energy levels, I’m confident with everything from energetic walks and playtime to quieter dogs who simply want company and affection. Aaron grew up with family cats, Nigel and Jess, and has also regularly cared for dogs belonging to family and friends. Between us, we have lots of hands-on experience with both dogs and cats and genuinely enjoy making pets feel comfortable, settled and loved while their owners are away. We know how important it is to trust the people looking after your pet, so we’ll always follow their usual routine, give them plenty of attention and keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re being well cared for. Pet care fits really naturally into our routine. I work hybrid, while Aaron works full time from home, so there is always someone around to provide company, attention, regular walks and bathroom breaks. Between us, we make sure pets are have plenty of time for play, cuddles, walks and their usual routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort and routine will always come first. We provide a calm, clean and welcoming home where pets are treated like part of the family, with plenty of supervision, attention and affection throughout their stay. We have a fully fenced garden, tall enough to ensure your pets safety. We’ll follow your instructions closely around feeding, walks, sleeping arrangements, medication and any individual needs or boundaries. We’re also happy to send regular photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is settled, comfortable and being genuinely well cared for.

“I honestly can’t thank Stacey enough for the amazing care she gave Ozzy while I was at work. Leaving your dog with someone else can be worrying, but she made me feel completely at ease from day one. Stacey kept me updated with lots of lovely photos and messages throughout the day, so I always knew Ozzy was happy and having the best time. It was obvious she cared for him as if he were her own, giving him so much love, attention, and care. The biggest sign of all was on the second day—Ozzy couldn’t wait to get back and actually ran straight to her house with his tail wagging! That told me everything I needed to know about how comfortable and happy he was with her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stacey to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy, Ozzy.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care – Rotherham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Rotherham on Rover is £25.3 per day (as of September 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 2,348 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Rotherham. About 86% of Rotherham 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 Rotherham 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 Yorkshire and the Humber 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 .
