“We reached out to Sonia to assist us in looking after Theo a few times a week moving forward. Our experience with Sonia so far has been nothing short of incredible. She is highly professional, accommodating, and flexible, catering to your specific needs. Theo absolutely adores visiting Sonia and playing with her dog as well. It’s incredibly reassuring to know that our furry friend is in safe hands. We will definitely be using Sonia for the foreseeable future. :) Priya”
“Lily always looks after my dog and I cant recommend her enough! Everytime I pick my dog up, he’s always happy and well cared for. I really appreciate the regular updates/photos/messages which gives me a peace of mind when I’m away. I can clearly see that Lily loves dogs and it shows because my dog is always excited to see her. Very reliable and caring professional”
“It is out second time we booked with Amandeep, very Kind and helpful, our dog Paquita had a good time with her, we are very loved with her services, we will book in the future.”
“We loved using Emily again to care for Roobarb. Emily, and her sweet pup Freddie, gave Roobarb a lovely time - and this gave us a much needed break. Thank you Emily and Freddie.”
“Leonie was absolutely fantastic, extremely organised and quick to respond. She is clearly very experienced with dogs and was very accommodating to ensure our dog was safe and help cope with the heatwave. Elton immediately gave Leonie kisses when he first met her and was evidently very comfortable! Thank you very much!”
“Natalija looked after Bodhi for the first time yesterday and he didn’t want to go home. He kept running back to their house 🤣. Bodhi came home happy and exhausted. Thank you so much.”
“I booked Scarlet through Rover having found the site on Google. I needed an last minute adhoc one day sitter for our puppy. I had a remarkable service from Scarlet as I was very nervous of leaving her with someone I had never met. She welcomed me and our puppy and reassured me before I left she would be fine. Scarlet took the time to ask questions and gain an understanding of our puppies routine prior to the day. I was kept up to date regularly throughout the day with updates and photo’s which further reassured me. My puppy was happy when we collected her at the end of the day and I could tell she had a really good day and from my experience I would not hesitate in recommending Scarlet.”
“We found Jenny to be very flexible and she accommodated our request to host Lilly at a very short notice. She also kept us updated and sent us the pictures/videos throughout the day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Had an excellent experience with Brianne. It was the first time we used a pet sitter for our 4 month old golden retriever. Our puppy instantly took to her, clearly enjoyed his stay. Additionally she was empathetic of our difficult circumstances on the day and helped us with logistics. Would strongly recommend and happily book again if required.”
“Laurence was very responsive and accommodating of our changing plans. He was keen to learn about how to support Bean and her additional needs, and she responded well to him. His property is well located for doggy walks. I'd he happy to book with Laurence again.”
About: I have had dogs and cats in my family my whole life, as well as numerous other pets! I am a huge animal lover with a particular soft spot for dogs and cats. In addition to taking care of my own pets, I also frequently look after dogs for friends and family. I have experience caring for puppies from as young as 12 weeks, as well as caring for older pets up to the age of 16. I also have experience with kittens from 8 weeks old. I have lots of availability for dog walking, doggy day care, and also for drop in visits for cats & dogs during the day and on weekends. I currently go to the office 1 day per month, and spend the rest of the week at home with lots of flexibility throughout the day, so I can flex my schedule to match what your pet needs. I will care for your pet as if they were my own - just let me know what they need, and I can flex to that. A meet and greet before any booking will be essential to ensure everyone is comfortable before any arrangements are made :)
“Emilia looked after Luna perfectly, she was in communication with me during the day care and took Luna out on a nice walk. Luna was happy when I picked her up and we will be using Emilia again for day care!”
“Andrei was brilliant with our dog Maxine and I feel like he was really intune to her needs as it was her first time in a group daycare since we moved to London. Would highly recommend Andrei for your doggy, they will be well looked after 😊”
“Anna was really quick to respond and very accommodating. She actively listened and asked some really helpful questions about how to make Elton feel comfortable. Couldn’t recommend enough! Thank you :)”
About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of pets including: • Dogs of all sizes and breeds • Puppies and kittens • Senior pets • Pets with medical needs & physical therapy routines. • Cats with different personalities • Small animals such as guinea pigs, tortoises, fish, chickens, goat's and hedgehogs. • Maintaining garden bird feeders and ensuring wild birds have fresh food and water • If needed I can put out food such as peanuts for visiting wildlife including deer, squirrels, and pheasant. I also have a passion for dog training and enrichment, so I’m happy to practice basic training and provide mental stimulation during my time with your pet. I try to adjust to your pets routine as much as possible but a typical day includes morning walks, garden playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of cuddles. Since I work from home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and always have company throughout the day. I keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to so they feel relaxed and comfortable. I also maintain a clean and safe environment, making sure food bowls, water bowls, and pet spaces are always fresh and tidy. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone new. During their stay I send regular photo and video updates so you can see how happy and comfortable they are. I’m also always happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so you and your pet can get to know me and make sure it’s the perfect fit. ⸻ My Promise Your pet will always be cared for with patience, kindness, and attention as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in South Bucks on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 16,636 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in South Bucks. About 86% of South Bucks 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 South Bucks 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 South East England 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 .
