“Yan and her husband were amazing and most accommodating--they came and picked up Campbell and were very patient with her when she didn't exactly want to go! And then they brought her back to the pub where we were after the play. Great great experience! Will use them again--which is much higher of a compliment than anything we can say in a review!”
“Megan has been wonderful for our Cooper! He has been well looked after for the weekend, with lots of outdoor time. Megan even sent us pics and videos to show us he was comfortable there. Wonderful boarder - will book again.”
“I booked Chloe at short notice after another arrangement fell through, and from her first message I knew Yoji would be in safe hands as she asked all the right questions. I received regular photos and videos, and came home to a very happy, tired pup. I’d happily book with Chloe again.”
“Lara was absolutely amazing with Olive and Bailey. They both are full of energy and Lara made sure they get enough of exercise. We also received regular updates with photos and videos. I could see they both were well looked after and happy. I highly recommend Lara and would love if she looked after Olive and Bailey again.”
“Caroline looked after my puppy with great care and attention and sent me lots of update videos of Coco having a good time looking relaxed and happy. Caroline gave Coco all the cuddles and love when needed to make her feel secure and content.”
“Brilliant was extremely happy from the first time I contacted Jenny to when we collected our dog. I was kept updated during her stay with messages and pictures which my mind at ease. Would 100% recommend. We will be using Jenny again”
“Thanks Lisa for taking care of Rocky. Communication was excellent for pre-meet, drop off and collection. Rocky came home happy and healthy and we will definitely use your services again.”
“Can’t speak highly enough about the tremendous service Beverley provides. Tilly again came back worn out from all the adventures and walks she has been on.. when we popped round to collect her she was sleeping and throughly worn out and totally relaxed. Thanks again Beverley”
“Both Sophie and her partner were brilliant with Treacle, she came home totally relaxed and we could tell she had a great time! We received updates throughout, and they were very thorough with their care of our pup ☺️🫶🏻”
“Rachel was great from start to finish, and Alan (large breed, BMD cross) settled instantaneously from being dropped off with her. Communication was great, all aspects of his stay were covered and updates were sent frequently to let me know how he was getting on. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Deborah gave Flo the best love, care, and attention- I’m only glad Flo still wanted to come home! Photos, videos & updates were much appreciated. Kobi is a great companion and fun to be with.”
“Vi er veldig fornøyd med oppholdet vår hund hadde hos Martine. Vi fikk oppdateringer med bilder, og opplevde at hunden vår ble svært godt ivaretatt under hele oppholdet.”
“Buster has just come back from a stay with Daniela and her family while we were on a weekend alway. He had a great time playing with their dog and Daniela kept me updated with photos over the weekend. We did a meet & greet before his stay and Daniela was welcoming and asked lots of useful questions so that she knew all about Buster before his stay. Thank you for having him! X”
About: I have grown up with pets and we had our own lovely little housecat Saffy for fourteen years, and now have had our gorgeous cockapoo Pip for six years. I also have a ten year old daughter and a four year old son. Our house is perfect for a dog looking for lots of cuddles and attention - we have lots of space and a large secure garden. We are also lucky enough to have a fabulous private walk on our doorstep. I am here 24/7 to look after everyone. This also means that I can keep to your dog’s preferred schedule (if there is one!). I have a large secure garden to run around in and love going for walks on the farm next door. Our dog Pip is a lovely, excitable Cockapoo who loves to play and run around but is equally as happy cuddling on the sofa while we watch a film. He has been neutered.
“Miffy had an amazing weekend with Carole! 😄 Carole was great, she communicated with us well, was available to meet Miffy beforehand, and Miffy was really happy to spend time with her!”
“Phoebe had such a lovely time with Imogen. She loved spending time with Imogen’s two friendly dogs, and the overall environment of her home was safe and friendly. I would highly recommend Imogen, and will look to use her again when needed!”

Willow spent a lovely weekend with Deborah and Paul, who kept her safe and comfortable during the heatwave. Willow loved spending time with Deborah’s two dogs and they all got along really well. I always have complete faith that Willow is in safe and competent hands with Deborah. Thank you.
Yan and her husband were amazing and most accommodating--they came and picked up Campbell and were very patient with her when she didn't exactly want to go! And then they brought her back to the pub where we were after the play. Great great experience! Will use them again--which is much higher of a compliment than anything we can say in a review!
I can’t recommend Emma highly enough, this was my dog Winston’s second stay with her and it was so lovely she see how keen he was to go into her house. Emma was great at keeping us updated with lots of lovely photos and videos which all showed that Winston was calm and happy. It was so nice being able to go away without worrying about whether Winston was happy and taken care of, thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Stratford-on-Avon on Rover is £36.8 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 West 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.
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. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
