“It was my first time using Rover and saw Roberta’s post. Roberta kindly arranged a walk before the booking to meet Coco and to introduce the dogs. She is so friendly and very gentle. Coco had her first stay over this weekend and Roberta kept me updated with texts and pictures all weekend. So pleased I have found someone that I can trust with her and will be using Roberta again in the future”
“Rufus remained calm and content during the stay with Liliana, and she was regularly providing updates 2 times a day. I have never seen Rufus this happy with someone else than family, it was a perfect home away from home for him and 16 days seemed like a dream come true, I was so assured that he is in good hands that my trip was relaxed and productive. I would not hesitate to recommend Liliana or to rebook Rufus many times with her. Highly recommended!”
“Sophie looked after our Cockapoo, Benji, for a week and was absolutely brilliant. We hadn't used Rover before, but we're so glad we found Sophie through it. Benji clearly loved his time with her, and we received regular updates on all the adventures he was having, as well as how well he had settled in. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was so happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Sophie to anyone looking for someone to keep their furry family member happy, safe, and loved.”
“Just got back from a wonderful vacation, and before leaving Raqz for the first time with strangers we were apprehensive about putting him in kennels, so was recommended to use the rover app to find a sitter by a friend & luckily found Gemma and her family, after a few messages and one meeting it gave us the confidence to leave Raqz in their care. We were given photo & written updates on the various activities that he experienced during his stay which settled our concerns. Gemmas children also gave Raqz lots of attention which he loves and helped him settle into his new routine much more easily. We were asked plenty of questions around Raqz daily regimes so he could be kept in a familiar routine. All in all on collecting him he seems to have had a great holiday away from his regular family in exchange for a new family. Thoroughly recommend using Gemma and her whole family they make it a team event.”
“Our puppy Milo was looked after very well, we couldn’t have asked for a better service. We recieved pictures and updates very frequently and our dog really enjoyed herself. As she is a puppy and very hyper we were unsure how she would be. But honestly we couldn’t have been happier and will definitely rebook in the future.”
“Absolutely brilliant service. My dog Rupert loved being at there house he was well looked after and treated well. Thank you so much and will certainly be using you again.”

About: We are Joe and Elise, a young professional couple, both in our late twenties. We have always lived with dogs until we moved into our own house four years ago. We used to regularly dog sit for family, but they moved away last summer. We still sporadically dog sit for friends either for the day or while they’re on holiday. We miss regularly spending time with dogs, but aren’t in a position to get one currently. We would love to spend time and look after yours! We have no pets or children in our home. We both work from home and very rarely have meetings at the same time, so will always be able to let your dog out in the garden, and take them for walks throughout the day. We have a fenced garden and no other pets or children. We live in the centre of Moseley and have access to the private park, so will be able to take your dog out for quick walks or longer strolls throughout the day.
“I highly recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter. I recently left my dog with Paulina for the first time, and from the start, she put me at ease with her genuine care and attentiveness to my dog’s needs. She kept me updated throughout the day, and my dog was relaxed and happy after the visit. Thank you, Paulina! :)”
“Lucky had a lovely time with Rachel , seemed very happy and settled when we picked him up as this was his first time away from family . Rachel kept us updated the whole time and would recommend her every time !!! Thank you very much Rachel”
“Dexter had a wonderful time. He was well looked after and spoilt rotten. He’s come home a happy pup Got sent plenty of pics of his activities. I would definitely not hesitate to send him back again x”
“I'm so glad I picked Louise . I felt really comfortable leaving Alfie with her. You can just tell she loves dogs ( and her lovely daughter) I'm sure he has been totally spoilt. Lots of updates whilst we were away . Would totally recommend”
“This is the second time Lyndsey & Niall have looked after our dog Ernie. The first time was for our wedding, so we didn't get a chance to review, but we have been really impressed with Lyndsey & Niall so far. They're a lovely couple who communicate well, they take Ernie on some lovely walks, and play with him to ensure he has a great time. When we dropped him off this weekend, he couldn't wait to get inside! We're so happy to have found someone who looks after him so well, and will certainly hope to book with them for future trips away too. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“My dog was very well looked after by prag and family. I was given regular updates and photos which was really nice as you worry about leaving them. Would definitely recommend. Thanks again.”
“Emily was very quick to come back to me on availability and maintained excellent comms throughout the whole process. She kept me updated throughout our dogs stay with her and it was nice to see that he was having a great time. Would highly recommend using Emily!”
“Jodie - our GSD - stayed with Joy and Phil for a week, and settled in really well. Joy kept us informed of Jodie's time with them through pictures and it allowed us to enjoy our holiday knowing that Jodie was in very good hands. Excellent care and attention - will be happy to recommend and will use Joy again.”

What a wonderful sitter for our Barney! Charlie had our 10 month old Cockapoo Barney for 9 days in her home and he was treated like a prince. He is very nervous of people but she really looked after him. He loved spending like with Bruce and had a great time. He’s absolutely knackered now so I know he was very well looked after and played with. Charlie sent regular updates, videos and pics to keep us reassured he was having a good time. We will definitely trust our Barney with Charlie again. Thank you so much ☺️
The most amazing care for our Westie Monty at short notice, even as an older dog he really enjoyed himself and was cared for so well! Thank you so much again, we would recommend you to anyone looking for a great dog-sitter, we were sent regular photos and videos of Monty x
Lottie had a wonderful time with Emily and Kris. They are so caring, they treated her like their own dog for the two nights she was with them. She was walked and played with. They took time to learn and understand Lotties personality and knew when she wanted attention and when she wanted to be left alone. We were away for my daughter’s wedding, so it was reassuring to know that Lottie was happy. Emily kept me updated with photos and comments on how Lottie was. I will definitely use them again if I ever need to leave Lottie and I would recommend them. Thank you ☺️
Nellie absolutely loves Dawn and going to stay at her house with the other dogs. She has also made friends with another cocker spaniel that Dawn cares for and they’re just adorable together. It gives us such peace that when we need Nellie cover that she is being cared for, and very loved as if she was one of Dawn’s own. Thank you Dawn, we’re so happy we found you :)
Simi is amazing. She really put me in ease and I felt an instant connection and trust. Gucci was calm in her arms when I left him and that meant so much. She listen to all instructions and asked questions. She is honest and sent me updates with photos. Great experience and we should definitely ask Simi to have Gucci again.
First time our dogs have gone to a dog sitter whilst we was on holiday we was nervous at first as we have very timid dogs and Ralph needs daily medication for his arthritis but Joy was absolutly amazing sending regular updates and photos which put my mind at ease straight away and when I picked them up they didn’t want to leave! We even got a little gift that joy had hand painted for us of the dogs which was such a lovely gesture. We will definately be using joy again to take care of our fur babies, wouldn’t ever use anyone else and would recommend her to anyone! Thanks again joy we will be back very soon
Tatiana is a lovely , calm lady , very experienced with dogs , who took time to understand my Retrievers needs and wants at the meet and greet before her overnight stay . She kept us updated throughout the evening and sent photos so we could see Nellie was happy and settled in her care . When we collected her in the morning after she had breakfast and a walk , it was clear she had enjoyed her stay with Tatiana ! 😊🐕🐾
Thank you to Louise for offering her home to Lucky while we were away. He didn’t make it easy for her but she kept us informed all the way and he has come back very happy. Thank you for the care you gave to him and the messages while we were away. Highly recommend Louise x
Hattie had a wonderful time staying with Jaiden! He sent us regular updates to let us know how she was getting on. He looked after her brilliantly and was very caring and mindful of her needs as a blind dog. He clearly became very fond of her. We shall definitely be booking Jaiden again!

Lily looked after my sausage dog, Bruno, for 5 nights after meeting him for the first time on Saturday, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience. Not only is Lily incredibly professional and attentive, but she is also such a genuinely lovely person, which made the whole experience even more reassuring. Bruno can be quite anxious naturally as a sausage dog, but Lily gave him so much attention, care, and reassurance that he completely settled in. He has never been this relaxed with a dog sitter before—it was clear he felt totally at home with her. Lily also kept me updated throughout his stay with lots of photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. It was so lovely to see him happy, comfortable, and enjoying himself. I was so impressed that I’ve already booked Lily again for my next holiday. I feel completely confident that Bruno is in the best hands. I would highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets while they’re away—you won’t regret it!
Luna had a wonderful time with Charlotte and her family. She had lots of fuss, nice long country walks and fun with their dog Bruce (although I’m not sure how much fun he had with our lively puppy!). Luna will be visiting again next time we’re away and we’d certainly recommend Charlotte to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Solihull on Rover is £37.95 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 1,405 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Solihull. 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 .
