“I cannot recommend Tahra highly enough and would give more stars if possible. Tahra is very knowledgeable and experienced in dog welfare and behaviours, I felt comfortable and extremely happy to leave my two dogs with her. A home from home. They both absolutely love her and are always excited to have sleepovers with Tahra. Excellent communication throughout the whole booking and stay. Thank you so much Tahra, and Kira and Max are already looking forward to their next visit 🐾🐾🥰”

About: Have spent the past 10 years or more around dogs of all sizes and breeds both within the family home and with friends dogs. Confident with bigger dogs who are a harder to handle. Ive trained my own dog various commands such as sit, wait, roll over and lie down. As my wife and I run a small business from home i’m able to look after your dog any times of the day. I’m very active too so happy to take your dog on walks and play with them as they need. Home is a safe environment with a large fenced and walled garden offering plenty of space for your dog to run and play. I do have a small furry friend of my own called Alfie who is great around other dogs. Your dog will also have access to our living/ dining room and kitchen as they please.
“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”
About: A loving, patient and experienced home-from-home for dogs and cats. I’m a huge animal lover with a real soft spot for both dogs and cats. I appreciate everything about them — their little personalities, their quirks, their loyalty, their independence, and the joy they bring into a home. Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to care for and spend time with many animals, both at home and during my travels. My profile includes photos of some of the wonderful dogs and cats I’ve looked after or met along the way, as well as testimonials from people who have trusted me with their much-loved pets. During my time working overseas, I worked closely with local animal shelters in my spare time, helping to care for and rehabilitate some of the most vulnerable dogs. That experience taught me the importance of patience, trust, gentle reassurance and understanding that every animal needs to feel safe in their own time. I know that no two pets are the same. Some dogs need playful energy, long walks and adventure, while others need calm reassurance, patience and a softer approach. Some cats love attention and company, while others prefer space, quiet and time to settle. I will always take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality and comfort levels so they feel safe, happy and cared for. I currently live in a child and pet-free home due to regular travel for work, so I’m really looking forward to welcoming animals back into my home and giving them the love, attention and comfort they deserve. Whether your pet needs a walk, day care, an overnight stay or a longer visit, I will treat them as if they were my own. Your pet’s happiness, safety and routine will always be my priority, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel relaxed, loved and completely at home. I work from home on Weekdays and will be available various Weekends also. Please ask me any questions you have. I know your pet is super important to you so having your mind at ease whilst they are here is super important to me. My home is currently child-free and pet-free, offering a calm and relaxed environment where your pet can feel safe and settled. I also have a fenced garden, giving dogs a secure outdoor space to play, stretch their legs or enjoy some fresh air. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves playtime, or prefers a quiet, cosy space to rest, I can adapt to what makes them feel happiest. I’ll give them attention, affection and reassurance when they need it, while also respecting when they may need a little space and quiet time.
“Amazing, could not have asked for better, a real home from home for our pup. Kept us updated and sent lots of photos and videos which we loved to see! Highly recommend ❤️”
“Left our 3 border terriers with Nicky and her family. This was the second time that they have sat our dogs for a few days. I think when you go to pick them up and they don't want to come home it says it all. Very professional, caring and kept us well informed. Would 100% endorse.”
“Karen kindly stepped in to help us on the same day with very short notice. She looked after our dog with so much care and made sure he had a great time. We’re really grateful for her kindness and flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times – it made everything so easy for us.”
“Diana is a lovely lady who welcomes her doggy guests with love and affection. Bungle my dog went to Diana and her family for 9 nights and had a great time, Diana sent photos of Bungle playing with his new friends also out and about on walks. I would recommend Diana to anyone who wishes to board there dogs or for day care.”
“Dan Li was amazing, she's a very loving and caring person, she's just wonderful. Se was messaging me frequently to let me know how my doggy was doing, sending lots of pictures and videos. Dan Li was checking on his poop making sure everything was okay, she was checking he was eating okay without me asking which was very appreciated. I couldn't really recommend her enough and I will definitely use her services again as her care was exceptional!”
About: Hi! My name is Agata, and I truly love animals. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet, and I would be happy to provide a safe, loving, and caring environment while you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping your pet company, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always pay attention to their individual needs and routines. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work until 3 pm, so I can take care of your pet 🐈⬛🐶 for evening walks every day and all weekend. I work close to home, so if you need to stay longer with your pet, I can also offer mult- days ;) I live in a large flat which is safe and I don't have any other pets. I can give you medicine and lock you in a cage if you wish.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the importance of routine, patience, and attention. I provide regular walks, a calm home environment, and personalised care based on each dog’s needs. I only accept dogs that are comfortable living with another dog to ensure a safe and relaxed stay. I structure my daily routine around pet care, ensuring regular walks, feeding times, and supervision throughout the day. I’m home for most of the day during the week, allowing me to maintain a consistent routine, and I’m fully available on weekends for attentive pet care. I live in a clean, and cosy apartment that’s well suited to calm, indoor living. I also have a friendly cavapoo girl at home who enjoys gentle company and helps visiting pets feel settled and relaxed.
“Laura has been absolutely fantastic with my boy Teddy, her love for dogs is so clear and Teddy has made a puppy pal! Can’t really ask for anything more, knowing he’s safe, cared for and happy means an awful lot.”
“A wonderful overnight stay for Luna. Home from home. A great garden to sniff in and play, and a warm welcome from the very caring and lovely Juliette. Lots of lovely updates and photos shared too. Knowing she’s having a great time and is being cared for makes working in Birmingham away from our usual London home, easy.”
“If there was a 6 star option, i would be going with that. Kim is absolutely fantastic. I am very fussy who i leave our puppy with, but Kim went above and beyond and he also loved her the minute they met. With having such a large breed i wanted to be sure Kim felt comfortable handling him before agreeing to a stay over. But my worries melted away during the first meeting! Our boy was pampered, loved and deffo spoilt! I had regular updates, via whatsapp and instagram posts and i really could not have asked for more. I will 100% be using Kim again, such a genuine kind soul as well as my puppys new best friend. Cannot recommend enough x”
“Watson just had his first stay with Iveta and everything was perfect. She is very communicative, it was very easy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand and Iveta provided regular updates and pictures whilst Watson was with her. He was clearly very happy and comfortable there and we will definitely book 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
Our Golden Retriever Nellie had a great time with Sandra while we took a week's holiday abroad. Sandra is very friendly and was always responsive to messages. She provided reassurance which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would not hesitate to use Sandra again, thank you so much!
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!
Federica and her family are such lovely people and made Chester feel fully welcome in their home and part of the family for his stay , Federica provided photos and updates which was most welcome. I would definitely recommend Federica to anyone , thank you so much 🥰🐶🐾xx
Absolute 5 star We were nervous about leaving the Pup as it was the first time we had been away from him, we had absolutely nothing to worry about With Ruchi as she provided a home away from home and the perfect environment, can’t recommend highly enough and not sure the Pup wants to come home, will definitely use again.
Oscar had a great time, he’s absolutely worn out and has been snoozing all day! Thank you for always keeping me regularly updated and for taking such good care of him that he didn’t want to come home, always very happy with the service you provide and thanks for being available and for allowing him to stop over with you- fab as always.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Sandwell
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sandwell on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,331 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 .
