I was nervous about leaving my dog but I needn’t have been. Lyudmila & her family looked after Oakley so well. It was a home away from home. She sent me videos regularly. He was well looked after & I’ll definitely leave him with Lyudmila again.

We honestly couldn't have wished for better people to look after our precious puppy, Nikko. Leaving your puppy for the first time is incredibly emotional, but from the moment we met Anidora and George, we felt reassured. They completely exceeded every expectation we had. Throughout Nikko's nearly five-day stay, Anidora kept us updated constantly with photos, videos and thoughtful written updates from morning until night. It meant the world to us to see how happy, relaxed and loved he was every single day. They took the time to listen carefully to everything we told them about Nikko beforehand and followed his routine beautifully. They even managed to do something we didn't think was possible – they calmed down our energetic six-month-old Jack Russell puppy! They took him on plenty of walks, helping him adjust his toilet routine while staying away from home, and gave him all the physical and mental stimulation he needed. What truly stood out, though, was the genuine love and affection they showed him. They didn't simply "watch" our dog; they welcomed him into their family. He received endless cuddles, kisses, playtime, training, attention and quality bonding time, just as he does at home. It was so clear from every update that Nikko wasn't just another booking – he was treated like one of their own. Their lovely little one also deserves a special mention. The bond that developed between them and Nikko was absolutely heartwarming. They became the best of friends, playing together, caring for him and making him feel completely at home. When we arrived to collect Nikko, they even planned a beautiful surprise by bringing him to greet us in such a thoughtful way. Watching his excitement when he realised Mum was there genuinely melted my heart. It felt like the kind of magical reunion you see between a parent and child, and it's a memory we'll treasure forever. Most importantly, Nikko came home happy, relaxed, confident and clearly full of love for them. That says more than words ever could. Anidora and George have earned our complete trust, and they've certainly earned Nikko's love too. We won't hesitate to book with them again—they have officially become our go-to sitters, and we cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, caring people who will treat their dog like family. Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts. We know Nikko is already looking forward to his next stay!

Abby came through for us when I was worried we wouldn't find the right care for our Darcy when we went to attend a wedding. All throughout communication was clear and prompt. We visited Abby's home before finalising the stay. She and her family are lovely and perfectly at ease with visiting dogs. Darcy was instantly at home too! During his stay, Abby sent us regular updates and photos/ videos. He's come home happy and gave Abby and Fudge a cuddle before leaving 😊 We'll definitely be booking Abby again x

Ruta was an absolutely amazing sitter for my dog Zebedee! Before confirming the booking, she offered for Zeb and Lexi to meet which was super reassuring, especially as we were away for almost a week. It helped me to feel at ease, with no pressure to confirm anything if Zeb and Lexi didn’t get on! While looking after Zeb, Ruta sent regular updates with photos and we could tell that Zeb really wasn’t missing us at all because he was being so well looked after. I would definitely ask Ruta to be our sitter again because we had such a wonderful experience with her!

They followed the care instructions we left accurately, kept him engaged with plenty of play and attention, and kept us updated every day.

Kobe had a great stay with Mel and her husband during the Easter holiday. We met with Mel before the stay to ensure everyone was happy and for Kobe to be familiar with Mel. We had regular updates with photos throughout the stay. Mel was extremely flexible with pick up and drop of times after our flights were changed.

About: Hi! We are Tabitha and Marc, dog parents and dog lovers. We have years of looking after dogs of all kinds (from Westies to Wolfhounds) and would love to help you out looking after your little love. We are owners of a gorgeous and very friendly golden retriever who will make your pup very welcome in our home. They are welcome to run around, jump on the sofa and make themselves at home however they prefer. We can cater to your dog’s routines and we will only have 1 dog at a time. Using sitters for our own pup, we know communication is key so we’ll happily send as many photos and updates as you like, and we can arrange to meet up ahead of any major stays to make you at ease with us and our surroundings. Both my partner and I work from home and most weekends between us one of us is at home looking after our lovely and friendly Goldie, Gus. We can accommodate your routine as you need as we live right across the road from a park and can walk at any time. We would never leave your dog unattended and can cater to any feeding or other routines. We have a lovely 2 bed house, with a secure and fenced garden and friendly neighbours! We do not allow dogs upstairs in the house but they will be able to roam freely downstairs and our garden. We are also happy to have a pre-meeting/call/zoom before any long term stays.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with cats and have regularly looked after friends’ dogs and cats, as well as feeding and checking in on my neighbours’ cats while they’ve been away. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own, giving them lots of love and attention. I work from home, which means I can give pets plenty of company, attention and regular toilet breaks throughout the day. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to fit pet care around my day. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, walks, litter tray cleaning, medication (if required), or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to work around their usual routine Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel settled while you’re away. Every pet is different, so I’ll adapt my care to suit their personality and needs.

Mel and her husband looked after Milo, our cocker spaniel for 11 days while we were on holiday. He had the time of his life! Lots of lovely daily walks, cooling off with paddling in a dog friendly river and a first time trip on a bus which he enjoyed! He was cared for and loved by Mel and her husband with lots of lovely photos daily for us to see him enjoying his fun days, and lots of cuddles! Mel and her husband were the best dog sitters and we are very happy to recommend their services and wouldn’t hesitate to give them 5 stars.

Our boy had a wonderful time with Abby and her family. They looked after him so well - he went on wonderful walks and was very happy there - not sure he wanted to come home and is certainly missing his new fur pals he made during his stay. Great communication before and during his stay. Can't thank you enough and would not hesitate to recommend.

FAQs for Boarding - Sutton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sutton on Rover is £34.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 15,983 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sutton. 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 Greater London 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 .
