“Hannah is a great sitter. Putting our anxious minds at rest with her total commitment and attention to detail. Bella was made very welcome and part of her family for the week. I would highly recommend and most definately I will be using again.”
“Couldn’t recommend Sylvia highly enough. Leaving your beloved pet wth a stranger is daunting but Sylvia treated our dog Pudding like her own. The regular updates and photos gave us peace of mind and as it was clear to see Puds was enjoying herself. I would definitely use Sylvia again and Puds simply adored her.”
“Tahra has been absolutely fantastic while looking after our two dogs. They are both quite nervous dogs and she obviously made them feel very comfortable as we were very quickly receiving photos of them cuddled up on the sofa. The regular updates were great and really help put our mind at ease. Thank you for looking after our babies so well ❤️”
“Lovely family took greatest care of our Tiah, a 16 year old little lady that loved her 1st ever stay with anyone. I will always be grateful to Federica for the care and love she has shown to Tiah and would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone that has the need of such a service. X X”
“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.”
“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!”
“The best dog sitter! We only ever trust Diana and her family to look after our dog! She keeps us updated everyday with pictures! Our dog is so excited to go there and play with their family dog, Roxy and she returns home a more confident and happy girl! ❤️ thank you Diana! X”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Emily provided for Pebble! From the moment I contacted her, she was professional, friendly, and attentive. She made sure Pebble felt comfortable and happy throughout his stay, and I could tell she genuinely loves animals. Emily kept me updated with daily videos and messages, which made me feel at ease knowing Pebble was in such good hands. Pebble came home relaxed and content, which is always the best sign! If you're looking for someone reliable and kind to take care of your furry babies, I highly recommend Emily. I’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“Kim and Jamie cared for our little one Mylo. He had the best time from the moment we dropped off up to pick up. We could see he was having a great time from all the photos and videos provided. He was loved and cared for like he was their own dog. Although Mylo was excited to see us and come back home there were a few whimpers as he left. This will definitely be Mylo's go to for weekend stays. Thank you both for loving our little boy so well.”
“Iveta is such a nice, lovely, welcoming young lady. My dog loves her. She was looking after him for 3 days and he was happy to see her, he was wagging his tail when we entered her house. I'm so happy they became friends in such a short time. My dog is old and grumpy but it looks like he felt very comfortable at Iveta's place. I highly recommend her.”
“Can not thank Niky enough for looking after my puppy at such short notice. She kept me updated and sent pictures to me over the weekend. Such a lovely family, milo was spoiled rotten. Highly recommended to anyone”

We couldn’t recommend Emily highly enough! She has looked after Ted for two weeks and he’s stayed with her a few times now. He absolutely loves going to stay with her, which gives me such peace of mind when away. Emily is fantastic with him, and we completely trust her to look after Ted. She’s caring, reliable and always does a brilliant job. It’s so reassuring knowing he’s happy, well looked after and having a great time while I am not there. Thank you so much, Emily — Ted will definitely be back! 🐾❤️
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!
Lauren and her partner were the perfect sitters. Great communication that made me feel 100% reassured that Bill was getting looked after and loved while I was away. He came back calm and relaxed (and knackered from playing with their dog). I would book with them again
We couldn't be happier with the care our dog Bella received. Glenda is reliable, friendly, and kept us updated with regular photos and messages throughout the stay. Bella was happy, well-exercised, and clearly comfortable in her care. It gave us great peace of mind knowing she was being looked after so well. We would definitely book again and highly recommend Glenda to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
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
Paddy absolutely loved his stay with Rachel. She looked after him so well. Took him out late in the evening when it was a bit cooler and her son spent hours throwing balls for him. She kept us updated the whole time. We will 100% be using Rachel again for dog care for paddy and would highly recommend her!
Antonio and Patrycja looked after Missy really well, she settled down well and was taken lots of walks which she enjoyed with their two small Yorkies. Antonio sent me photos 3 times a day and I was comforted that she was being well looked after. They genuine dog lovers and I would hesitate to ask them to care for Missy again.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sandwell on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,319 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sandwell. Enter your postcode to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Finding the right boarding environment is all about peace of mind. Boarding with a sitter on Rover helps you find a cosy experience in a real home for your dog.
When searching for a host, look for a sitter who:
- Offers a secure, home-like environment that is clean and welcoming
- Adheres to your dog’s established routine for meals, activity, and rest
- Possesses relevant experience with your pet’s specific breed, size, and personality
- Maintains clear communication regarding the frequency of photo and message updates
Don’t skip the Meet & Greet! The free Meet & Greet is the best way to see where your dog will sleep and who they might play with.
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.
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 West 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.
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest vet. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorisation form for your regular vet. An authorisation form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
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 .
