“Fabulous Family, An absolute Gem. We have never left our 5 year old Springer with anyone so to say we were reluctant is an understatement, but needs must. I contacted a few people on Rover but Hannah and her family stood out so I contacted her again. Hannah could not have been more helpful and understanding. She accommodated us with 2 visits prior to our booking and she’s just absolutely lovely. They welcomed our Pup into their home and treated her like their own. We had twice daily updates and lots of photos, we could have not asked for more. We are so grateful to Hannah and her family, and can’t recommend highly enough. Sally and Neil Grogan”
“Could not have asked for a better place for our dog. We have a Belgian malinious mix, large and energetic - and so was hesitant to how he would be whilst we were away… but Steven and the family gave our dog a great home for over 7 days whilst we were away. Keeping us up to date with walks, and pictures - and even bought a dog toy to keep our dog engaged. Would recommend.”
“I’ve had few sitters in the past, and i can say Sylwia is the best we have had. She treated our dog with best loving care and sent photo updates daily regarding our dogs daily activity which was re assurance for us whilst being away on holiday for two weeks. Most dog sitters dont take time to do this!! Its clear to see that Sylwia Loves dogs and is not just about the money its her passion! So I highly recommend her above many others.”
“Wish was fantastic and provided such great care for our Yorkshire Terrier,Cookie ! We booked on short notice and Trish was really understanding and very helpful, picking him up and dropping back off after the weekend. Lots of updates and great communication. Cookie has come back very happy and well cared for!!!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Puppy Sitter! 🐾❤️ We honestly couldn’t recommend our puppy sitter highly enough! From the moment we went for our meet and greet with Patch and Daisy, we knew straight away that our pups were going to be in safe, caring hands. This was the first time we had ever left our puppies while going away on holiday, so naturally we were a little nervous. But we really didn’t need to be! From the moment we dropped them off, we were kept updated with lots of photos, videos and messages, which gave us so much reassurance and allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing they were happy and being so well cared for. Patch and Daisy were treated as though they were part of the family, not just dogs being looked after. They had so much love, attention, cuddles and care, and it was lovely to see how settled and happy they were throughout their stay. Everything was so professional, friendly and reassuring, and it genuinely felt like a home-from-home for our two babies. ❤️ We came home to two very happy puppies, and it was obvious they had absolutely loved their stay. 🐶🐶 Thank you so much for looking after Patch and Daisy and giving them such a wonderful holiday of their own! We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to use you again. We’ve found someone we can completely trust with our babies, and that means everything. 🥰🐾 5 stars really don’t feel enough! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thanks again Kate, lewis & family and of course patch and Daisy 🐾”
“When I went in my dog was immediately comfortable, going to her dogs at the kitchen gate, he interacted with Diana and I was happy to leave him if not a bit nervous. He was a bit upset when I left so she stool him for a walk. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day which I appreciated and Winston was calm when I got back to collect him. I would definitely use her again and would recommend.”
“Jodie was lovely, great communication throughout, very flexible and understanding. We were moving house and she looked after our dog Stanley whilst we unloaded the van so he was a bit stressed but she made him feel very loved, comfortable and safe. We would definitely recommend and book again.”
“Bella had an amazing time with Zoey. Zoey was really good at keeping me updated regularly and was so lovely to speak to and accommodating. I will definitely be using Zoey again she was amazing.”
“Jack has a fantastic day with you guys! He’s come back happy and shattered. Great to be able to book him in at such short notice, much appreciated and you guys have been great. Photos during the day put our mind at rest, and he had a fab time!”
“Tammy was amazing from start to finish. She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. Tammy is friendly, reliable, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Thank you again, Tammy – we will definitely be booking with you again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for 20 year from my families to neighbours and other peoples from small dogs to large dogs. I absolutely love looking after dogs and if they get dirty I will even bath them to make them shine for the return. I am a stay at home mum two 1 but goes on losts of walks and park trips more out going on long walks out in the open I have fencing all round, lots of toys for them to play with so never get bored. I have a dog of my own. Ruby a cocker spaniel so will always have a fury friend to play with. Lots of space and lots of treats for good doggy's. And trips to the park and open field for plenty of excersise.

About: You name it ive probably handled it, from dogs and cats. I love animals, all creatures great and small. Love finding new ways to enrich their lives. Best thing is when they're happy I feel that happiness deep in my heart. They show you through little acts of trust. Im here for the animal and will do what is best for them. Animals have supported me through so much and I want to help give something back. Im a mum of a 7 year old girl and step mum to an autistic 6 year old boy, its hard at the moment to find work that fits the craziness that is family life. Id been thinking for a while how I'd love to incorporate my love for animals with my passion for teaching and special needs. However I need more has on experience with animals. This job would fit perfectly into school hours and crazy routines. Feeding, playing and treats always first 3 main, my own cats have climbing frames etc on the walls so any cats are more than welcome to use my home facilities. I take every opportunity to introduce my cats to new people and animals, with the hope that dogs of any sort may feel welcome here with my guidance. My home is autism friendly to the best of my abilities, so you can imagine how safe it would be for your fur babies.
“Thank you so much Laura for a wonderful stay for our dogs. They have clearly been really well looked after and the returned to us happy and healthy. I think they’d like to stay again!”
About: I’m a passionate dog lover with 13 years of experience. I had five dogs in China and specialise in caring for dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs. I don’t own a dog in the UK because bringing pets back to China involves complicated procedures. I work from home full-time with a completely flexible schedule, so I can provide round-the-clock companionship and consistent care for your dog. I work fully from home with a flexible schedule that I can arrange freely. I am able to adapt to your dog’s daily routine. The only thing is that I usually get up after 8:30 in the morning🤭 I live in a clean, spacious high-rise apartment that allows dogs. I will stick to your dog’s routine for daily walks. I enjoy trips to local parks and am happy to take your dog there every week for extra playtime and exercise.
About: I've been looking after my friends' dogs since 2021 whenever they're away on holiday or travelling for work. Over the years, I've learned how to take care of dogs. I'm a patient, responsible, and caring person who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. Whether it's going for walks, playing, sticking to their usual routine, or simply giving them plenty of attention and cuddles, I always aim to provide the same level of care that I would want for my own. I am currently finishing up my PhD, so I have a very flexible schedule since I don't have a traditional 9-5 office job. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I enjoy spending time with animals. I always care for each pet according to their individual routine and the owner's instructions. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn about their feeding schedule, exercise routine, favourite activities, and any special requirements. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Fantastic boarder! Thank you so much for looking after our Labrador for 3 days. He's had a great time. We received regular updates including photos and videos. I would definitely book again. I feel that Nacho would most definitely enjoy staying with Lauren for any length of time. Thank you again.

We booked Glenda to have our young frenchie who had never stayed away from us before so obviously we were very nervous owners. However there was no need for that at all! Glenda was super accommodating with 2 overnight stays before the actual break as trial runs and she took fantastic care of him. I loved getting the daily photos and updates of him out on his little adventures and its clear he really loved staying there. Our first time using this service but it was seamless start to finish so will definitely use again in the future. We cannot recommend Glenda highly enough to anyone looking for your pet to have 5 star treatment whilst you are away, contact her you won't be disappointed, absolutely fantastic 👏 thankyou so so much for taking such good care of our fur baby!
Thank you Antonio and Patrycja, you were absolutely amazing. This was the first time we had used a dog sitter, we met at the park to see if Lottie would get on with Peanut and Snoopy and they were fine, I felt instantly at ease knowing she would be well looked after, Antonio and Patrycja we happy to follow instructions and gave regular updates (as many or little as you would like) lots of walks and cuddles. We didn’t expect Lottie to go into season half way through her stay (she is an older dog and her cycle had become irregular) but they took it in their stride and adapted her care to keep her safe and away from Peanut and Snoopy. We can’t thank you enough for the care and help in a difficult situation with two male dogs to also care for. I would happily recommend them and will 100% be using them again. Thank you so Much Steve & family , not forgetting Lottie 🐶 the spaniel
Bear was obviously very well looked after with Sandra- I was super nervous leaving him as he is only young and never been away from me, but we picked up a very happy puppy after a weeks stay with Sandra. She went above and beyond to keep him for an extra night last minute when we broke down on the way home from the airport which relieved so much stress for us! Thank you Sandra!
Sarah is amazing, she has looked after Zeus on a number of occasions for us now and as soon as Zeus gets there he knows exactly where he is and walks in the house like he lives there 😊😊 Fantastic communication and always happy to adjust dates/times if needed. I really wouldn’t want to leave my boy anywhere else since meeting Sarah. Thank you for always treating him as your own. Xxx
Lola & Ruby had a lovely time staying with Laine and her hubby. We received regular updates and photos and felt comfortable that our babies were being very well cared for whilst we were away. They came back to us happy, relaxed and in good condition. Thank you so much!

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.
When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog has an overnight booking in a sitter’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.
The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one pet owner's pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.
Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.
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 .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for last-minute bookings for Dog Boarding. With 1,327 sitters in Sandwell, 72% respond to messages in under 5 minutes.
Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

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 , which provides up to £25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
