“Cuba had a fab time with Charlotte, Sophie & Izzy. She’s very gentle and appreciated having a quiet time, a leg stretch at lunchtime and a doze on the sofa this afternoon! Thank you for making Cuba so welcome! 🤗”
About: I am a Dog Trainer, with a Level 4 certification. I started my career with dogs volunteering in a Grey Hound Rehome Kennel and then became a Dog Handler in 2020, since then I have completed my Dog Trainer qualification and have trained numerous working dogs in different specialised roles, from Search to Police. I currently own a retired working dog, called Rocco, a 6 year old LabX and a Belgian Malinois, Arya, who is a year old. My dogs are very well behaved and tolerant of all temperaments. They are a playful, high-energy bunch however will respect a dogs space if they are more timid. My daily work as a Dog Trainer includes addressing behavioural cases, from reactivity to human aggression cases and troubleshooting handler issues. I have aided with pet and sport dog owners providing guidance on obedience, tracking and scent-work training. Experienced with a wide variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment so can give my full attention to the dogs in my care. I am available weekends and most days with prior confirmation. I have a two bedroom house with an enclosed garden, all fences are 6 ft high other than one side, which is slightly over 3ft and both neighbours either side have dogs. They are friendly, often playing and interacting with my two dogs through the fence. I have space for my dogs to be crated separately from any visiting.
About: Highly experienced ex dog owner who has raised a diverse range of breeds. I really miss having my loveable companions by my side both inside and outside of my home. I have experience in training young puppies right through to adapting my time to suit a mature dogs lifestyle. Most importantly I love walking in all weathers and am happy to adapt my routine to meet the needs of your dog/s. I am available Monday to Friday and have some availability at weekends too. I would consider dog sitting in the comfort of your own home if this was your preferred option. I have a large, secure, fenced garden and have lots of floor space in my house to ensure your dog has everything they need to feel relaxed and at home. I also have room for a dog crate if required.
About: I have lots of experience of pet care having had my own dogs and also looked after friends' dogs and cats (providing walks and house sitting). I can provide lots of long walks, cuddles, play and company. Please feel free to ask me any questions you have! I'm currently working part time, so have flexibility during the week for walks, drop ins and sitting. I can do regular appointments or one offs to suit your needs. I offer lots of attention and company, interesting walks, play time, and work with you to understand your pet's needs and preferences so you have peace of mind that they are being cared for in the way you want.

About: I have been raised with dogs since a child, I currently have a 2 year old Labrador myself. I love being in the company of dogs and enjoy teaching dogs new tricks, walks or just cuddling up on the sofa. I currently work from home between school hours, I walk my dog in the mornings to school and back, then he has his breakfast. During my working hours they will have access to the garden at all times for toilet breaks, or can be with me resting, where ever they feel comfortable. After work I walk to collect my son from school, on the way home they are able to have a longer walk. School run walks take 40 minutes in the morning, enough time to stretch their legs in the morning. I have a fenced garden and have a 2 year old male Labrador and two cats. We have two children aged 10 and 13 who love animals, there will be plenty of love, fusses and playtime for all. As our Labrador is entire, we are unable to accept unspayed female, as we do not think it is fair for either dog. We are able to accept entire males, subject to a meet and greet with both dogs. My main focus is making sure both dogs are happy to be around each other. If your beloved dog has any special requirements please let me know, I am happy to discuss these.
“Cat was really positive and caring. She made a warm and lovely place for our pup to stay and he really enjoyed it. She did everything we asked of her and at very short notice as well”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was in primary school and currently own 1 gorgeous border collies after 2 sadly passed away. I’ve had two of my dogs from pups, with Ted now being 9. Bear sadly passed away last year at the age of 15. We also had a Dale, a rescue border collie who came to me badly neglected and abused. I nursed him back to health and gave him a little over a year of knowing a loving home until he sadly passed away after suffering a bleed on the brain. I regularly pup sit for friends and families dogs. I currently work from home and can be available during the day or evening for walkies, drop in visits and stays. Always happy to take doggy’s on adventures with us on weekends. I have a secure garden and 1 friendly border collie, aged 9 (nearly 10) to keep your furbaby company if you wish. The house is very much the dogs home as well as my own. I am responsible and happy to pop into your own home to look after your pup if that’s what you require and obviously walks galore are available!
“Ingrid has been wonderful with Rua. Rua took to her and her husband straight away and loves spending time with them. They have been taking Rua on walks and looking after her for day boarding, and she always comes home happy and tired from all the fun. Ingrid is friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with. We feel completely comfortable leaving Rua in her care and would highly recommend her.”
About: I have a golden Labrador called Loki who is 7 years old and in the past few years, I have helped friends and family with their pet care when they are busy with work or off on holiday as I work from home and have the time to do so. I love to take dogs on long walks and feel it is essential they are in a homely environment when they are not in the comfort of their home and given plenty of attention and cuddles.s I work from home so am able to be present for anxious dogs/needy dogs. I like to go on a long walk once a day with my own dog. I have a fenced garden and a very loving sociable labrador. I also have a 4-year-old daughter who loves to give doggies cuddles and affection.
About: I grew up with lots of animals like a tiny farm and since going to university, I have missed it :( I always go to my family house where there is 5 cats, 2 goldens and 10 chickens and 1 rabbit. May sound like a lot but there is never a moment of boredom. I work in Boston, 8:30-17:00 Monday to Friday. Please take that into consideration when booking me as it doesn’t not let me edit my work schedule into the app. Anytime after 17:30, if you want your dog walking I would be happy too. I really enjoy going on walks with dogs. I have a fenced garden and love going on walks. Dogs and cats are allowed on furniture so they have many places to venture and relax :)
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, I have lots of experience and my own little Bichon Frise. We live on a farm so lots of space as well as nice big secure garden. We have looked after many friends and family’s dogs and we like to make them feel part of the family. I’m currently working part time and working from home. My husband works within ten minutes from home and is home multiple times a day so if i need to nip out they will not be left for long. Me and my Bichon Megan are always out walking so we can offer plenty of walks and most are on our door step so we don’t even have to go in the car. I have a secure garden and a very friendly Bichon Frise to keep your pooch company. They will always be supervised by me when they are together:
“Cordelia was great and Badger my 5 month old Patterdale loved his stay. I received updates and pictures through the day and won’t hesitate to use this service again :)”
About: I've got 8 years experience with two dogs in my home. Now I have just one, a Cairn Terrier, so would be pleased to look after a playmate for her from time to time! I work full-time from home so your pup can be by my side and have regular toilet breaks (and strokes). In the evenings I have plenty of time to play and to cuddle! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5pm I have a fenced garden, an adult son at home and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I have a fold away pen perfect for puppies. Lots of toys and balls to play with and comfy sofas and chairs to lounge on
About: I’ve had experience with a variety of dogs throughout childhood, but have raised labradors from puppies in my adult life. Whilst having the opportunity to be at home through the week, the biggest thing I can offer you is my time and dedication; I love all breeds and no requirement is too small. Please feel free to get in touch, even if just for a chat! My long term plans involve completing my studies to become a mental health practitioner, so I have a lot of home availability and wanted to fill my time with something that I’m really passionate about. I have a fenced garden, security cameras and a friendly Labrador to keep your dog company and entertained! I’m always attentive to making sure Toby is fed, has access to water bowls, and acknowledging communication and signals for their biological needs and play schedules! Very happy to do a meet and greet to see how you, and perhaps most importantly, your dog feels in our environment!
About: I have one dog aged just over 1 years old that I absolutely adore! I love dogs so am happy to constantly give your dog lots of love and attention as well as plenty of walks and play time! I have always had a dog from different sizes and ages so am confident I can take care of any dog that I am blessed to look after! When looking after your dog after a fun day of playing I love sitting down in front of the fire and snuggling up with them! I am a keen runner so if your dog needs loads of walks and needs to keep active I am happy to take them on a jog or a very long hike to keep them engaged!

There are 755 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in South Kesteven. About 88% of South Kesteven 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 Kesteven 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 East 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.
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 .
