“Lyndsey and her family were absolutely amazing when she looked after our Lola. She followed everything we asked, and also sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the 2 weeks she had her. I would have no reservations in recommending Lyndsey to look after anyone's fur baby, ours will be visiting again next year without doubt. Thank you Lyndsey.”
“James and his family took great care of our puppy Stitch with regular updates and photos. The price is very reasonable and James was flexible with times for dropping off and collecting which was helpful. Stitch came back a happy pup and we have already booked for our next trip - thanks again! 🐶”

They have come home tired and happy and we are so appreciative - knowing George and Peppa were safe and happy meant we were able to enjoy our wedding day without worries. Thank you Emma!”
“I was quite anxious leaving Elsa for the Easter weekend, but Sheila put me at ease from the very first meet-and-greet. Throughout Elsa’s stay, we received frequent updates and pictures that reassured me. Elsa clearly had a wonderful time, and I would absolutely trust Sheila again without hesitation. Thanks so much for looking after my baby so well ❤️”
About: 🏡 BOARDING INFORMATION Please note that we currently accept boarding stays of 2 nights or more. This allows your dog time to settle in, relax and enjoy their home-from-home stay with us. A meet & greet is required before we can accept any new dog for boarding. This gives us the opportunity to get to know your dog, discuss their routine and needs, and make sure they’re comfortable and happy in our home before their stay. Your dog’s safety, happiness and comfort are our priority, and we want every stay to feel like a home from home. ❤️ 🐾 EXPERIENCE A lifetime of love and experience with dogs I had my two much-loved dogs, Zeus and Zena, from just 8 weeks old until they sadly passed away at 14½ years old, so I have genuine hands-on experience of caring for dogs throughout every stage of their lives — from energetic puppies through adulthood and into their senior years. They had completely different personalities. Zeus was reactive, which taught me a great deal about patience, recognising triggers, giving a dog space and carefully managing walks and interactions. Zena was the complete opposite — extremely friendly and loved children! With her, the challenge was managing her excitement and helping her stay calm when she wanted to greet everyone she met. As they became older, I adapted to their changing needs. Zeus developed hip dysplasia and eventually used a doggy wheelchair, while Zena used a pushchair when she could no longer manage longer walks. I made sure they could still enjoy getting outdoors and being part of everyday life while keeping them safe and comfortable. After 14½ years of having dogs by my side, the house is very quiet without them. I'm not ready to have another dog of my own, but I have plenty of love, time and space to give, and I'd love to use that to help other owners by providing a safe, caring home-from-home for their dogs. I understand that every dog is an individual. Whether they're young and energetic, older and slower, nervous, reactive or simply love lots of attention, I'll take the time to understand their routine and what makes them feel happy and secure. Your dog won't just be staying with me — they'll be welcomed into my home and cared for as if they were my own. ❤️🐾 I’m happy to board up to two dogs at a time, providing they are from the same household. This means your dogs can stay together in a comfortable home environment, and I can give them plenty of individual care and attention. I don’t board dogs from different households at the same time. I currently work full-time, but pet care will be something my partner and I are both involved in. I have two days off during the week and finish early on another day, while my partner is home during the day. Between us, we can provide plenty of company, attention, walks and care throughout the day, so your dog will rarely be left alone. We have a secure, fenced garden with plenty of space for dogs to enjoy. Some landscaping work is underway but is currently paused until next year, and the garden remains safe and secure for dogs. We will always supervise dogs appropriately and follow their usual routines, including feeding, walks, medication and any individual care needs. Having cared for our own dogs from puppies into old age, we understand how important it is for owners to know their dog is safe, comfortable and well cared for.
“This was my dog’s second stay with Gemma. Darcie can be quite timid but she took to Gemma and her family straight away. Gemma kept me updated and sent photos of Darcie’s adventures. I know that Darcie is being cared for as I would so I can relax and enjoy my holiday. Highly recommend Gemma and I will be booking her again.”
“Another amazing stay with Kin! She goes above and beyond to ensue your pup has the best stay! Lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Couldn’t wish for a better person to care for your pet ❤️”
“Thank you so much Kelly. Daily updates on Ralph with pictures of his day. It meant so much to us being able to see him doing the things he would do at home. Such a weight off our minds during our holiday. Had a very happy little man when we picked him up and would absolutely not hesitate to have him back with you or recommend your services to anyone I know.”
“Fantastic Dog Sitter really really easy to get along with communication was 10 out of 10 and got a really great vibe. Will 100% be bringing Albie back again in the future as they seem to get on great. The photo was a really nice touch. You might say quite high-quality too LOL. Great to have such an easy option. This close to New Year’s Eve would highly recommend. Thanks again from Michael and Albie.”
About: I have had experience of dogs since age 8 when my parents had 2 golden retrievers. There has only been a period of around 10 years in my life where I have not lived with dogs. I have bred rottweilers and German shepherds. I am a house husband so apart from nipping the shops, I am at home 95% of the time. We live in a rural area and within a 5 minute walk there is access to fields, woods and walks right by the wrekin. My whole life is pet care at the moment, I love it. I can do very last minute bookings so long as there can be a quick meet to establish all dogs are going to get on. I especially like big dogs and don't mind a bit boisterous / challenging. So long as they get on with my dogs. We have a good sized enclosed garden with dog flap doors which lead to the garden. I am a house husband and am at home 95% of the time. I take my dogs out for 3 to 4 walks a day starting very early in the morning. Our dogs are very playful and freindly with other dogs. I have had many a relatives dog stay over whilst they are away so I am very used to looking after multiple dogs. I have raised a few litters of pups, the last litter 12/2025.
“Thank you so much for having Storm and Penny, they loved it with Charlie, she kept me updated with pictures, I had a mix up with dates and Charlie was so good with accommodating this, amazing communication before and during their stay, I would 100% use her again, thank you so much!”

Judith is a genuine animal lover and took such great care of my dog, he didn’t even want to come home! I loved all the photo and video updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Judith to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy dog sitter.
This was the second time we've used Lyndsey and Jim, they looked after our pup storm who's a very nervous dog for 8 days. They gave excellent care and administered her daily epilepsy meds as well as regularly keeping us up to date with how she was getting on. I would highly recommend them, they're a lovely couple who care alot about the dogs which put our minds at ease as we knew storm was in good hands on both occasions.
I'm not going to give Lauren a review full of positives and gratitudes, which she truly deserves actually, because I want her to be available next time we want to use her fabulous dogs careing services. We would not want to have to leave our 12yo Scottish Deerhound with anyone else now so please don't use Lauren in case our dates clash. Thanks.
Leigh was super helpful when we had a last minute holiday booked, she answered any questions we had and helped in every way possible. Halloumi seemed to have such a nice time, he's come back way more relaxed than usual and seems so much more chilled. We were sent so many photos and videos whilst away which was lovely to see. I will definitely be using Leigh again in the future and i think other people should too. Thank you Leigh 😊 x
Elena and her family were excellent and vey attentive to Willow. We received loads of updates and pictures. Willow showed only happiness when we collected him and no sign of stress. Willow seemed to of had a very enjoyable time with Elena lots of walks and plenty of cuddles
This was the first time we have left our dogs with someone we didn’t know. Katie & her husband was absolutely fantastic with our dogs who were very settled & happy in their home. The morning & evening pup dates & photos meant we went away with no worries knowing they were happy & well looked after. I would definitely recommend & use again.

When you book dog boarding on Rover, your dog has an overnight booking in a sitter’s home. A traditional kennel or boarding facility typically cares for dogs in a commercial setting, often with multiple staff members and a set daily schedule.
The environment and care arrangements in a sitter’s home vary by sitter. Some sitters may accept only one pet owner's pets at a time, while others may care for several dogs. Review each sitter’s profile and arrange a Meet & Greet to ask about resident pets, other dogs, supervision, sleeping arrangements, exercise, medication, and the sitter’s home environment.
Consider your dog’s normal routine, comfort around other animals, supervision needs and preferred environment. Whether you choose home boarding or a kennel, confirm what care is included and how your dog’s needs would be handled before booking.
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 .

Many sitters keep their calendars updated in real time and you can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care in the next 24 hours, you can look for sitters with a 'calendar last updated' notice on their profiles.
Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.
Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.
