“I used Chloe this weekend for our Chip for an overnight stay. He absolutely loved his time with Chloe. He looked like he had lots of fun with her and another dog she was looking after, and has been absolutely shattered since he’s come home :) he didn’t look like he wanted to leave when we picked him up. Would 100% recommend Chloe for dog boarding to anyone and will be using again, thank you Chloe!”

“Took great care of our little puppy Bowie on our wedding day, provided us with updates throughout the day meaning we didn’t have to worry about him at all. Would definitely let Bowie stay here again if we ever needed to use the service.”

“Sparky was really well looked after I’m so happy with the care she received. It was in a proper family home setting which she enjoyed loads, I was updated regularly on walks play time etc. Thankyou so much!”


“Judith was wonderful with our 4 month old pup, Artie. She was great at communicating before the stay, very attentive to his needs when we dropped him off and sent regular updates. Artie got regular walks, was constantly played with and fussed and generally treated like royalty - loved it. I would highly recommend Judith to anyone, she was fantastic and the only problem was I don't think Artie wanted to leave he loved it that much! Thank you Judith for taking such good care of him.”

“Michael did an amazing job looking after Raku. She stayed for a whole week and was super well looked after. I got regular photos and updates and Michael followed all of my advice/requests and made Raku really comfortable. Definitely recommend Michael, especially if your pup needs a bit of extra understanding.”

“This was our first time boarding with Palash as our regular boarders were unavailable. Palash was absolutely amazing and took care of our dog very well. He was also very accommodating with a last moment change in pick up schedule. Our dog had a wonderful time and we will definitely go back in future.”

“Afshin and family were great with our 2 standard poodles. They are both very energetic and need people with a lot of experience to look after them. Afshin and his family did a great job with them and they came back to us happy and healthy”

“Keri was so wonderful with Goose! He didn’t want to leave her back garden as he was having the best little time! Highly recommend her to look after your fluffy child! He can’t wait for the next one!”

“Ashely was absolutely amazing in looking after our dog, Rory. We felt so relieved to know our baby was in safe hands whilst we were away. We received lots of updates and pictures of Rory which we throughly enjoyed. Thank you so much for taking care of Rory. We really appreciate it x”

“Nicola looked after Frodo for a full week and did a wonderful job. He was clearly happy, well cared for, and settled when I picked him up. Nicola kept me updated and treated Frodo like one of her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and would happily book with her again.”

““Fantastic service! Zaria looked after my dog for a week and did an amazing job. Great communication, regular updates, and lots of care and attention. My dog came home happy and well looked after. Highly recommended!””

“Sarah was Fantastic with Muffin! She kept us updated on their activities and he had a relaxing stay with her. Sarah responded to all messages super quickly and put any concerns we had to bed. We will definitely be booking with Sarah again and I'm sure Muffin can't wait for his next sleepover with her 😊”


“Jack was brilliant at caring for Enzo over the weekend. He treated him as if he were his own. Enzo went on so many walks, had trips to the pub and cafes and came back to us happy and extremely tired from all of his adventures. Communication throughout was excellent, and we received lots of photos and updates on how he was getting on. 5 stars, and Enzo will definitely be staying again soon.”


“Ko took such a good care of our dog! It was a very last minute booking, so that's a huge plus too! Ko was very caring and reliable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Our 'old girl' Ruby spent 3 nights with Carol and John and was treated like a princess! Such a lovely couple and we left Ruby knowing that she would be looked after as one of their own. She loved the company of the sassy little sausage dogs and wasn't phased one bit by big, soft Rex the Airdale. No hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending Carol (and John obviously) and we will definitely ask them to board Ruby again on our next getaway. Thank you so much xx”
“Beth is just amazing, we are so lucky to have met Beth and Pickle really has got a second home now. Pickle has spent 5 nights with Beth and has had his own little holiday, Beth sent us updates. Thank you Beth 🐶😀🐶”


“Linda looked after our Jackhuahua, Bella, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We received constant photo pupdates which gave us complete peace of mind, and it was clear Bella was having the best time in Linda’s lovely home. She came back happy, relaxed, and well looked after. We’ll definitely be booking with Linda again - highly recommend!”

“Thank you Filipa and Simon for welcoming George into your home and looking after him so well. He has clearly had a super time! We can tell he has been looked after very well and he will miss you and Jackson. We appreciate all the updates we had while we were away - it was lovely to see the photos of George having fun. We would not hesitate to recommend you to dog sit and we will certainly book him again with you. Thanks so much 😊”

Sarasa looked after Bonnie like she was part of the family. We got regular updates and pictures to see what she had been up to. Bonnie relaxed straight away and had lots of fun! Thank you so much, it was so reassuring to have her taken care of so well whilst we were on holiday.

We had a wonderful experience with Flo looking after our dog Chico. Chico can be nervous around new people, but she was incredibly attentive to his needs and made both him and us feel very comfortable. She provided a calm, caring environment, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely use Flo again in the future to look after Chico — highly recommend!

Lenny had the absolute best time with Lauren and her family, I’ve never seen him so at home anywhere else, it was a truly home from home experience for him. She went above and beyond, we left him for our wedding and on the day she even dressed him up bow tie, which really made our day. Thank you so much, he will be back for cuddles soon! 🐶💛

Big thanks to Jenni and family for taking such good care of my Lab Nancy. This is the second time Jenni looked after Nancy for a week. I had a nice holiday knowing that Nancy was in such good hands Nancy is 9 and gets a bit stiff and sore sometimes and Jenni gave Nancy her medicine and extra care and consideration about walks. I will definately be using Jenni's services again.

Really happy with the care my dog received while I was away. She was happy and clearly well looked after. It was the longest we had left her and the regular pictures and updates were lovely and gave me peace of mind. I’d definitely recommend and book for Teddie to stay with Zaria again!

Judith was wonderful with our 4 month old pup, Artie. She was great at communicating before the stay, very attentive to his needs when we dropped him off and sent regular updates. Artie got regular walks, was constantly played with and fussed and generally treated like royalty - loved it. I would highly recommend Judith to anyone, she was fantastic and the only problem was I don't think Artie wanted to leave he loved it that much! Thank you Judith for taking such good care of him.

We had such a great experience with Anna-Rita. She was quick to respond and really easy to arrange a date with. She was also more than happy to accommodate a trial night with our puppy, which gave us great peace of mind. Throughout the stay, Anna-Rita sent us lots of wonderful photos and kept us regularly updated. She was positive, friendly and so easy to communicate with which made the whole experience completely stress-free. We would 100% recommend Anna-Rita and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Really grateful for Gemma and her partner looking after Ted for a few days. From the initial communication and visiting their home for a meet and greet, they made myself and Ted feel very welcome and I knew he would be well looked after. Regular updates and photos during the stay, even asking if ok to give him a bath after a muddy walk and it was good to hear Ted was enjoying his stay throughout. I was very happy to hear that Gemma and her partner loved having him stay and enjoyed his company and sounds like a small bond was formed even in such a short time. I’d definitely have no hesitation in letting Ted stay with this couple again in the future if the chance arose. Thanks so much again for looking after Ted, it is really appreciated!
This is the second time that our dog Leo has stayed with Sarah. When Sarah came to pick him up Leo recognised her immediately and jumped on the couch to welcome her. Sarah is a lovely girl and is very professional and knowledgeable when dealing with dogs. My wife and I would strongly recommend Sarah having seen how Leo enjoyed his stay. We had no concerns whatsoever. A 5 star sitter for sure.

FAQs for Dog Boarding – Stockport
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stockport on Rover is £32.2 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,941 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stockport. 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 North West 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.
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.
