“Laura looked after my miniature dachshund brilliantly. It was my first time using the app, Laura put me at ease and sent lots of photos throughout the day. Zeus was clearly very comfortable with her, and received lots of cuddles. Laura took time to listen/ read Zeus’ needs as he has a few fears. We picked him up a very happy dog. I would not hesitate to book Laura again 😊”
About: My boyfriend and I both grew up with family dogs, and ever since moving in together had our own dog. We trained her via doggy school since she was a little pup and took her on many adventures that went as far as moving to the UK with her. We regularly looked after our families dogs as well when they went away on holiday. We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our little girl recently due to age. While we are looking for our next sweetheart, we have an abundance of love, walks and empty spots on the sofa for your furry friend! I work from home, but I occasionally have to travel for work and my partner is only 10 minutes away - both with flexible hours. This allows us to plan our days around your dogs needs! We live less then a minute walk from a big park and can easily go for multiple walks a day if they’re up to it. We also have a fully enclosed garden with space for running around. We’re flexible with your dogs needs, whether they require a crate to sleep in, prefer to sleep on the couch or on their doggy bed, just let us know. Near the end of her life, our dog became blind with different health issues. Going through this gives us experience to also take care of (senior) dogs who have a complex medical history. We have full flexibility for how we plan our working days. Whether we wake up early to go for a walk before breakfast, use our lunch break, or swap our evening sports for a long walk, we will adjust based on your dogs usual routine. With our enclosed garden, there’s plenty of playtime opportunities as well! In the weekend, we are able to make sure one of us is at home for most of the day if required. The garden is spacious and dog friendly. The house has enough room to place the dog’s personal bed or crate if needed. They are more then welcome to join us (and sleep) on our sofa as well. Feeding and walking are arranged to what they are used to, no matter how many times a day. Different medical routines are easily incorporated - experience with eye drops as well as regular pills.
“First stay with Jamie and hopefully will not be the last. My dog was very well cared for and he was content on picking up. Jamie and his partner were considerate and made sure they understood his behaviours. I would happily leave my dog in their care again.”
About: Since moving out, I’ve really missed having my family dog around, so I love any opportunity to spend time with a new furry friend! Whether it’s walks, playtime, training, or plenty of cuddles, I’m always happy to give dogs the attention and care they deserve. I work from home most weekdays, which means your dog will have lots of company, supervision, and flexibility in their routine throughout the day. I grew up with dogs and have always been very comfortable understanding their different personalities, needs, and behaviours. I’ve looked after a wide range of breeds and sizes, from small dogs to very large breeds. At the moment I regularly care for a Cockapoo, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and even a Great Dane, so I’m confident handling dogs with very different temperaments and energy levels. I’m patient with puppies and young dogs who are still learning, and I’m happy to reinforce basic training, routines, and good habits. I’m also attentive and gentle with senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra care, or medication. Above all, I’m responsible, calm, and genuinely love being around dogs. I’ll always treat your dog like they’re part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after. My home feels far too quiet without a dog around! I currently work from home in a flexible role, allowing me to provide care and attention to pets during weekdays. I can schedule walks/playtime/drop ins during breaks and lunch. I am also available in evenings and at weekends. I provide safety for pets in their own homes by ensuring i have a clear understand of the pets needs and the owner’s instructions. I engage with the pet to build trust and strengthen my bond with them.
About: I have 20 years + experience of caring for dogs, I am DBS checked and first aid trained ( human). Now I have more time on my hands I would love to care for your pooch. I enjoy taking long walks with my own little fella and love being outdoors. I have experience with puppies, nervous and excitable dogs. I enjoy the socialisation puppy and dog ownership brings and love nothing more than engaging with our dog walking community. I offer short walks, long walks, cuddles, play, interaction with your precious and loyal companions. Whatever the weather you will find me walking my own fur baby, teaching him to talk and having fun. I would love to walk more pooches and give them the attention and love they deserve.
“NIdhi was brilliant with Winnie. She took her on a nice long walk and Winnie was clearly v happy and content with her. Thanks so much for having her! It worked really well. Much appreciated!”
About: I’ve been a dog mum since I was 10 years old, so caring for dogs has always been a huge part of my life. My partner and I are both huge dog lovers, and because we both work from home, we’re able to provide pets with plenty of time, attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I also have experience with puppy training, and we both understand that dogs are family members. We always make sure every dog feels safe, happy, loved, and comfortable while in our care. One of our favourite things to do is taking dogs on long walks, we love seeing them enjoy themselves, explore, and have fun. We believe every dog deserves kindness, patience, attention, and the very best care possible. 🐶🐾❤️ After moving to Nottingham in 2023, I took a short break from providing Rover services while settling into a new home and routine. Now that everything is settled, I’m excited to be back and ready to provide loving, reliable care for your pets again. We live in a spacious flat that provides a calm, safe, and cosy environment where your dog can feel relaxed and right at home.
“Contacted Nick about a short daycare for my energetic young dog. Nick was one of the fastest responders to messages I've come across here. After the initial meet and greet in which we discussed all expectations, Uist has returned after a trial daycare day, exhausted but very happy. Nick understood Uist's needs and made sure he had plenty of walks and play. On the pickup, I was quite delayed by traffic but Nick was very understanding. Can highly recommend and will use again”
“Here’s a warm, polished review you could post: We needed someone to look after Rupert due to a change in our work commitments, and we’re so glad we found Olivia. Olivia was absolutely fantastic with Rupert. It was clear from all the photos and videos that he had an amazing time and really enjoyed spending time with both Olivia and Jasper too! Seeing how happy he was throughout the day gave us complete peace of mind. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and Olivia kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos. They really made me smile during my workday and reassured me that Rupert was having the best time. Thank you so much, Olivia, for taking such great care of Rupert. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again and would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
About: I owned two dogs when I was in Italy. I was responsible for caring for my dog since I was 13. My dog lived 15 years and the second is now 12 but he is in Italy with my sister. We went for walks in the forest and loved going to the park to play with other dogs. I have experience in walking different sizes of dogs. I also have 8 years experience in looking after guinea pigs. I have 2 cats that can be separated from pets boarding in a different room I am currently off work until the middle of July, so I will be at home most of the day. This means I can provide regular walks, plenty of playtime, toilet breaks, feeding, medication if needed, and lots of attention and companionship. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care throughout the day. Lots of cuddles and stimulation. Always supervised and have a pet camera. I make sure to follow the pets routine and keep owner up to date with messages and pictures

“Its so wonderful having a warm loving home for my darling Lulu to go to when I'm away with work. Odeta is so good with her; Lulu's always so happy to see Odeta when she arrives. Pictures and videos throughout the day assure me Lulu's walked, cuddled, fed, and gets lots of attention and play time. Odetas home will be for sure, a place for Lulu for a long time to come 🙏🥰”
“Enola had a fabulous time with Rachel. She was really great at communicating before and during the visit and gave a really detailed update in the report card which I thought was so nice! I’ll definitely be using Rachel again and would really recommend her too 😊”
“Chloe is friendly and took good care of Aria. She also provided an update with photos. Her space is cozy and safe with a nice yard and Aria looked happy when I picked her up. Thanks Chloe!”
“Very happy with Emil. Had to leave our dog for the day, somewhat last minute. Felt confident leaving him in Emil's capable hands, and Apollo came back a happy dog. Would have no hesitation leaving our dog with him again”
About: I have been a dog sitter of a Labrador Retriever, the owner concerned about proper medication with his meal, and I managed with care. As when I am young my aunt have two dogs, one of them needed long term medication sustaining its health. Therefore, I realized the importance of adhering to the medication schedule and pay great attention to the consistency. My friends and family said I am an animal lover and carer with great patience, as Sometimes when the dog that I was sitting, having an off day. Having plenty of sleeping instead of eating. I chose to stayed attentive and kept checking on him, looked after him until he felt better. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets during weekdays. Boarding is available on weekdays and weekends. There is no smoking or other pets inside the home, so your pet can stay in a safe environment. There are quite a few parks and green areas around the flat, where your pet can enjoy playing and walking time.
“Grainne has been brilliant with our 8 month Cocker Spaniel. She has gone out of her way to make sure that he has settled in her home. He has been to secure dog fields and enjoyed spending time with both Grainne and her cocker Oscar. I would have no worries with leaving Cooper with her in the future.”

An excellent first day care stay for Bathsheba at with Hayley! Would definitely recommend, she was clearly a hit with Bathsheba. Bathsheba has an injury and various quirks but Hayley managed all this and put my mind at ease. Hayley was also very accommodating at short notice when our planned initial meet and greet needed to be a proper day care stay due to my work. We will definitely book again.
Brilliant meet and greet and day care provided by Odeta and Daryl. Everything was thought about. Nervous dog well cared for and work to the dog’s rhythm. Positive and calming energy for the dogs. Plenty of exercise, good opportunities for rest, sniffing, interaction and play. Fab updates provided throughout stay and genuinely cared about Barney and settled him well. Definitely recommend
Eleanor looked after our energetic, but slightly nervous, spaniel so well that I think he had an even better holiday than we did! Her warm and calm manner meant that he felt immediately at home and he obviously enjoyed lots of great walks and cuddles. I would definitely use Eleanor again and recommend her for dog sitting, boarding or even just walking.

There are 909 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Rushcliffe. About 85% of Rushcliffe 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 Rushcliffe 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 East Midlands 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 .
