About: I grow up with pets this being my own pets or family and friends. I had the responsibility of making sure they were well looked after, took them for long walks, vets appointments, giving medication, and baths.

“At short notice, I was able to book Ping Yan to look after our dog three times over half term for a full day. She was very professional, friendly and caring and I felt 100% confidence in her. She kept contact throughout the day sending videos and information about how our dog was doing, which was great. On the first day, we were stuck in London and got back much later than we had initially anticipated. Ping Yan was very understanding and kept telling us not to worry as we waited on delayed trains to get back to Cambridge. She made us feel very reassured which really helped. I can’t imagine that anyone would be anything but overjoyed at the way Ping looks after dogs so you have nothing to worry about with her. She was also very punctual whenever I texted her to say that we’d be downstairs in a few minutes to meet her.”
About: I live in central Cambridge, right next to a large park, so there are plenty of opportunities for lovely walks and outdoor adventures. I’m happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means going for a run together, enjoying a longer walk, playing and exploring, or simply having a relaxed day and lots of cuddles. My priority is making sure the pup feels happy, comfortable and cared for. I work remotely, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine. I can take breaks for walks, playtime, and cuddles, and I enjoy having a dog’s company during the day. Make sure the dog always has water and gets food when it’s food time. Make sure there are no items on the flow that the dog could possibly eat or destroy.
“I am very grateful ,as Mariana took my urgent booking for day care of my dog .She was great with Leo ,made him very comfortable with her.If i have a chance ,i will book her again.”
“Imogen was brilliant. I was nervous to leave my 12 week puppy with someone new and she was great in helping reassure me - she let me look round her place in advance with him, she was super prompt in replying to messages and she let me know how he was doing during the day. There was another puppy there who she has been regularly looking after and he had the best day - the videos she sent me showed me how much fun he was having and how relaxed and content he was. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family and my pup Atlas can't wait to go back!!”

Cooper had such a lovely day with Kate! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day, which I really appreciated. He had a great time playing with her puppy, Moon, and it was so nice to see how well they got on. It was clear he was very well looked after and had lots of fun. I’d happily leave Cooper with Kate again and would definitely recommend her!
Gilda is fantastic, a loving and attentive dog sitter who really enjoys dogs and their individual personalities. Kona loved his visits with Gilda and could not wait to go back. She is also conveniently located if you happen to be out and about in Cambridge without a car. We appreciated her flexibility and the joy with which she approached each visit. Highly recommend.
I left my 2 dogs Luca & Oscar with Ecehan for 4 days last week my dogs loved staying with her. She was absolutely brilliant in accommodating my eradicate times and If I could I would give more than 5 stars, my boys will going back in the future so that recommendation on its own .
Dora seemed very happy when we went to collect her after her day's stay with La Sol E who seems genuinely fond of dogs. Dora is still a puppy of 9 months and so extremely lively (and also having her first season) but La Sol E. seemed unphased and we shall be very happy to ask her to look after Dora again.
Jacob was brilliant with Whiskey and looked after her like she was his own. She was really happy when I picked her up, and I could tell she'd been well looked after. It's clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. I'd happily leave Whiskey with him again and would definitely recommend him.
We were happy to leave our lively young dog in Juliet's care for the day. Juliet handled the introduction to her own dog and other mindee on neutral territory to avoid any problems, and it was great to have photo updates of the three little dogs enjoying the garden and the sofas together. Tired but happy spaniel!
Thank you Danuta for taking care of our little ones quite last minute. They seem thoroughly loved 🥰. Thank you for sending pictures regularly and keeping us posted. Sherlock and Lily seemed really comfortable even though it was their first time. They would love to see you and Ivy soon.
Ella did a fantastic job looking after Daisy – we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was Daisy’s first time with a dog sitter, so we were naturally a bit nervous, but with Ella it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. We really appreciated the regular updates and all the lovely photos throughout the day – it was so reassuring to see how happy and settled Daisy was. It made such a difference knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ella and will definitely be booking again!

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 East of 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.

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 .
