“Amira loved her time with Inga & Bonnie. Amira is always scared around new people but she’s gotten used to Inga very quickly, which is great! Inga has been very patient with Amira’s constant demands to be petted.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs of all varied breeds my whole life, and often look after my family and friend’s dogs. I can’t wait to meet your own furry loved ones! I work from home, fairly flexibly, Monday to Friday. I am available most evenings and some weekends with notice. I have a full driving licence and car, and don’t have any children or pets of my own (yet!) I have a fenced off garden, of which many family/friend’s dog have visited and love running around in it. I’m happy to accommodate to your dogs’ needs.
“Matcha had a great day with Annalise - she was smiling in the photos Annalise took and she didn't want to go home when I went to collect her. It's her first day with Annalise and I'm so pleased it went well. Highly recommended!”
“Snowy has had 3 sessions with Caroline now and it’s been amazing. He absolutely loves it there and always looks so happy in the photos that Caroline sends over! Was very late coming back from work the other day and Caroline was very understanding and helped a lot! Absolutely will be using her more in the future and couldn’t recommend more! :)”
“Milo had a lovely stay with Natalie. We got updates throughout the day and she was really understanding of his needs. We would definitely leave him with Natalie again. Thank you!”
“Jane was absolutely brilliant! We met her and Juno in Hardwick Heath and our border collie Morris loved playing with them from the get go. Jane was amazing and very accommodating, and it was a relief to know Morris was going to be well looked after and have a dog pal to play throughout the day. Something that was particularly nice was that I mentioned we've been working on his lead walking, and Jane went over and beyond to continue working on the lead manners with Morris while he stayed with her! It was very thoughtful and extremely helpful too. We got lots of pictures of Morris and Juno playing during the day, as well as pictures of Morris just chilling in Jane's house. Cannot recommend Jane enough, we'll definitely be booking with her again”
“Always a real pleasure to leave Benji with Simon and Emma. He always has a fantastic time (we get pics throughout the day) and he comes home suitably pooped and ready for a good sleep. Buddy (their pooch) is fantastic, and just an all around pleasure. Highly recommend. Is our go-to!”
“Sarah was very helpful with ny last minute requirements, my dog had a fantastic time, great place with a good size secure garden. If ever back in the area, I will definately use Sarah again.”
“Alix & her husband were AMAZING. They took a last minute request and were able to watch both our dogs. She sent me pictures throughout the day, and took them on a couple walks. They were happy & exhausted when they got home - both good signs of a fantastic day! We will definitely use them again.”
“It was obvious Miguel had an amazing time with Becky from the way he has been so chill coming home but also the way he was leaning against her and wanting a fuss when we were leaving! Becky was excellent at communicating on Miguel and we felt totally at ease to leave him to have a doggy daycare. Thanks so much again Becky and we will all look forward to seeing you again 🥰”
“Monica had Milo for the day, ahead of looking after him when we have our holiday. Milo had a great time with lots of attention, play time and walks. We can 100% recommend Monica and feel totally happy that Milo will receive all the care and love he enjoys.”
“Pokie had a lovely pit stop with Lucy for a few hours while I was at an exam. She's a nervous girl but sounds like she settled well and she was happy and relaxed at pick up too. Thank you x”
“Giselle was absolutely fantastic with Stella. Stella has quite a nervous disposition, but she took to Giselle straight away, she engaged great with her and updated us on how she was doing. Stella settled in great, far faster than I expected her too which was so reassuring to see. I would definitely recommend and will be booking with Giselle again in the future!”
About: I started dog and cat sitting for friends in 2020, and now have 6 years of experience. I’m patient, kind, and genuinely caring with every pet I look after. I grew up in a family with dogs, cats, and rabbits, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my whloe life. I have experience with a wide range of dog breeds, especially Shiba Inus, Akitas, Golden Retrievers, Shih Tzus, German Shepherd and Bichons. I am working in hybrid with 4 days at home. I have regular hobby morning/evening run. I might run slow but I love to running with dog. If your dog is not big fans of running, we can also have a walk around to explore the big park near my home. ☀️☀️ We also have AC at home to keep the temperature in 23°C during the heatwave, so your doggy will also be stay with cool and chill during their stay. 🧊🧊 I have a fenced yard and locked garden door to make sure the safety of the dog. I am also a person with full of energy, so if your pup love to play with me in the garden I will love to.
About: Dogs have always been at the heart of my life and caring for them has never simply been something I do - it is who I am. For me, this is not just a service, it is a privilege. I understand that every dog is a cherished member of the family and I treat each one with the same love, patience, kindness and unwavering devotion that I gave to my own. For 13 wonderful years, I was blessed to share my life with my beautiful Cavapoo, Colby. He was my constant companion, my best friend and I will always feel incredibly honoured that he chose me every day. The bond we shared shaped the way I care for animals and reinforced my belief that every dog deserves to feel safe, understood, loved and completely at ease. Following Colby's passing, I found myself deeply missing the daily joy of giving that love and care to a dog. It is this, more than anything, that inspired me to begin this new chapter. My aim is not simply to offer dog boarding, walking and house sitting, but to provide a home-from-home experience where every dog receives genuine affection, individual attention and the highest standard of care, as though they were my own. My experience extends well beyond everyday care. During Colby's later years, he bravely lived with heart failure, requiring an extensive and carefully managed medication regime. I administered multiple medications with precision, consistency and dedication while closely monitoring his health, comfort and changing needs. This experience has given me invaluable confidence in caring for senior dogs, administering medication and supporting dogs with ongoing medical conditions, always with patience, compassion and meticulous attention to detail. When you dog is in my care, they will be treated as my own family - with warmth, gentleness and genuine affection. My promise is to provide not only a safe and reliable service, but a nurturing environment where you dog feels secure, loved and truly at home 🐶❤️ I provide full-time, dedicated care tailored entirely to your dog's individual needs and routine. Whether they enjoy long walks and playtime, gentle companionship, plenty of cuddles and love, or simply a quiet place to relax, my focus is always on ensuring they feel safe, happy and loved. I offer house sitting in your home, boarding, drop in and dog walking throughout the week, including weekends and I am committed to maintaining your dog's usual routine as closely as possible to provide comfort, consistency and complete peace of mind while you are away. Safety, trust and a calm, secure environment are at the very heart of my care. I have no other pets or children in the home, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed setting for your dog. My property benefits from a walled, secure garden and I am fortunate to be situated in a beautiful village with a country park and woodland walks right on my doorstep, offering safe, enriching and varied outdoor experiences in nature.
“Thank you Gareth! You were terrific with Pablo and he had a lovely day! Thanks for the photos and updates and for helping us with the awkward timings today. Much appreciated- see you again!”
“Cherry absolutely loved her stays with Amalia and Bri, she was happy and tired when I picked her up which was perfect for me, and Amalia was very understanding around me having to do awkward drop off and pick up times, highly recommend and would definitely use again!”

Indie spent two days at daycare with Lucy and Coco, and we couldn’t be happier. As a shy girl, we were so pleased to see how eager she was to go back each day, it really meant a lot to us. Thank you, Lucy, for making Indie feel so at home and for all the lovely photos you shared. We’ve definitely found our pet sitter and will absolutely be coming back! 🐾💛
Natalie is such a lovely lady who seemed genuinely thrilled to be hanging out with my daft Labrador for the evening! Thanks for having Arthur so I could pop to the theatre - if only I lived closer to Bury st Edmunds, Arthur had such a lovely relaxing time, I know he would happily do so again!

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 St. Edmundsbury 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 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.
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.
