“Cara was amazing with my dog. Roxy absolutely loved and trusted her with all I heard. Booked at the last minute with her and she took care of Roxy well. Will love to bring Roxy to her again next time.”
“Alex was brilliant she looked after our 9month Springador for a 12hr day with no issues . She updated me with pictures and when I picked him up he was happy and knackered . Fed , watered ,walked and played ...what more could a pup want ☺️”
“I am so delighted we've found Joanna. Our dogs absolutely loved spending the day eith her and her pup, they all got on so well. She had spare beds and blankets, toys etc for them to make them feel at home. Couldn't have been more at ease leaving them with her, and will definitely be booking again!”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, so being around them and taking care of them has always come naturally to me. From feeding and walking to just giving them attention, I'm really comfortable handling their day-to-day needs and making sure they're happy and getting all the love they deserve! I now live with my partner Liam, who also grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes, from Rottweilers to Jack Russells, so we're both very used to having them around. We're massive dog lovers and really enjoy spending time with them, whether its going for walks or just keeping them company and making them feel at home! Both me and Liam work remotely from home so we are around to feed, walk and take care of your dog all throughout the day! On the weekends we enjoy being active and going for walks around the neighbourhood, we would love to be able to bring a dog along with us! We are currently living in a flat, however we have a park right across the road with an enclosed, fenced dog section where they can be let off the leash and safely play in the open :)
“Lidiya was absolutely brilliant! I made a last-minute enquiry, and she handled everything so well. She took great care of my puppy and kept me updated regularly, which gave me real peace of mind. Highly recommend! Thank you Lidiya.”
“A very friendly and enthusiastic family who made me and my dog feel very welcome. After his day with them our dog was content and very happy, which of course, is a lovely outcome to our first visit with Noemi. Thank you.”
“I can highly recommend Kayleigh. She has a natural affinity with dogs and very considerate to their needs. My Lab cross goes to her once a week and has such a good time he is reluctant to leave!”
About: I have always grown up around dogs, we had newfoundlands when I was younger and then we had spaniels so very used to energetic dogs that need lots of stimulation. My children are always around dogs and understand how to behave around them. We home educate our girls so we are at home during the day for lots of walks and attention and plenty of love and cuddles. We live in a house with a large enclosed garden for them to run free and big grass parks nearby for walks. I am a home educator so I am at home during the day. I have 3 girls who absolutely adore dogs 10,6 & 4. I also have a king charles spaniel called Izzy who is 9 who is from with all dogs. I head out for a dog walk every morning to our local park and again after lunch. I am available every day as I am home unless we have holidays booked. I’m a stay at home mum so there will be at least 1 adult available to be with your dog at all times if required. We only have one dog at a time, or more if they are from the same household. This means your dog will have our full attention. We have a large enclosed garden so dogs are free to go outside securely.
“She and her family are very friendly for us. My dog usually doesn't like to interact with other dogs, but she was showing interest in this family's dog. It's a sign that she's very relaxed. I would like to ask them to day care again!”

“Mark did an excellent job of taking care of Tamu, we got frequent photo updates and he ensured she was well looked after, including making sure she got along with his other dogs when Tamu was unsure initially. Would certainly use Mark again in future!”
“John is a great sitter. Billy had a very happy day! Everything went well from start to finish -I had great directions to Johns house, and a warm welcome. Billy was very at home. Thank you!”
“Fritz our beagle had a lovely day! Made to feel very welcome and given the run of the large house and garden, and he was given toys to play with. He was taken on a couple of walks and we were sent photos and updates. Definitely recommend and we are already booking another day.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years and genuinely love spending time with them. During this time I’ve looked after dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, so I understand that every dog has their own needs and routine. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them plenty of attention and cuddles, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also reliable and responsible, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure your pet gets the best possible care. I work from home 3 days a week and then the other two days I do volunteer work local to wear I live so am able to come back a fourth through out the day. I walk everyday so always love when I have some company. I have a spacious flat where your dog can feel at home. I do not have a garden but am near lots of fields so we’d have plenty of places to walk too.

Joanna and Chris took great care of Donut today. We’ll definitely recommend them and use them again in the future. They sent loads of photos and videos throughout the day, which we really appreciated and helped keep us updated. As it was our first time using Rover, we were a little hesitant at first, but they made us feel completely confident and reassured that Donut was in good hands. Thank you both for taking such good care of Donut!
Ted has been to Sophie’s multiple times now and he is absolutely thrilled everytime we turn up at her door! Half the time he doesn’t even say bye to me because of the excitement of seeing Soph! She is the best and I 100% trust her 🤍 such a lovely girl and would re book again and again and again!
Laura looked after my 10 week old puppy Louie last minute. She took good care of him, his needs were met and his routine was implemented. He was loved and cared for and felt he was in safe hands. Louie missed Laura when we drove away. I would definitely recommend her.
I left my dog with Olivia for the first time. Izzy seemed relaxed and happy when we went to collect her. We were able to enjoy our day out without any worry. We will definitely get in touch with Olivia again when we need someone to look after Izzy in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Swindon on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,629 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Swindon. About 86% of Swindon 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 Swindon 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 South 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.
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 .
