“Percy & Neville have just had their second stay with Lyndsey and they were so excited when we dropped them off! We received lots of updates and lovely photos of the boys walking and chilling, which is so nice to see them relaxed. Lyndsey and Her Family treat the boys as if they were their own, allowing them to stay in their room and we couldn’t thank you enough for taking such good care of them!”
“Can't thank Laura enough for looking after Millie, she's so kind & caring with my minnie Daschund. It's clear Millie loves her holidays with her & the boys. Highly recommend & won't use anyone else now we've found Laura 🐾🐾😁”
“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: 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 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.
“River has had a fab stay with Becky 💕 Throughout the stay Becky kept us updated with messages and photos, which was nice. It's clear that River was well cared for whilst there and we've picked up a happy pooch 🐾 I would recommend Becky to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you!!”
“Well what can I say about Frazer - an absolute superstar!! He is the first dog sitter I have used and he will be my go to from now on. The guy is amazing. He learnt all of my dogs habits and routines beforehand and gave them the absolute best time while we were away. Regular photos and videos were sent daily which also put our mind at rest while we were so far away. We have only had Daisy for three months and were a little worried about how she would cope without us but she and Frankie had the best time. I would recommend Frazer without a seconds hesitation - he is the best. Do not look elsewhere, trust Frazer with your loved ones, I promise he will love them as much as you do.”
“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.”
About: I’ve had pets all my life including caring for guide dogs whilst they are in training. I occasionally look after friends and family’s pets when they are away. I am on maternity leave for a year so have plenty of time and availability I’m currently on maternity leave so I am available every day for walks, check ins or looking after your pet. I walk my dog Bella once a day locally I have a fenced garden with plenty of walking routes nearby. I have spare crates in size small and large if required. I have a 10 year old dog who enjoys other dogs company
About: I was a dog mom for 13 years and my beautiful best friend Amigo had the best life any dog could ask for. I love animals deeply and I moved to the area I live just for my dog. My house is fully dog proof with a dog flap, garden and woodlands right outside the front door. He passed away 5 months ago and I can’t bear to have another dog of my own, but the house is quiet and I miss being able to look after a furry friend. Amigo was a white German shepherd so I am used to big dogs and the needs of a “working” dog breed. If you want your dog to be looked after with the amount of love you give them, then I am your gal. My best friend Jenny is also a boarder / walker, so if there is any time where I need to pop out shortly she can normally pop in and keep your fur babies some company . I work from home currently and did so, so that I could be with my dog before he passed. I can give a lot of attention to your furry friend as they will be here right with me. I also have a dog flap so there always free to go outside as much as they like. *If I am out for any reason my bestie who is a dog boarder & walker can pop by. She also lives down the road from me which is a plus. So be rest assured that your fur baby will be well looked after. I have a fenced in garden, and a two story house so there is enough space (my German Shepard was very comfortable here and didn’t have any issues). You tell me how many treats your pet can have and I’ll provide the cuddles and playtimes. * Jenny also has a fenced garden. She has a 4 bedroom 2 story new build which is stunning.
“Olly loved his stay with Lauren and her little boy Leo. It looked like he didn’t miss me at all by the photos Lauren sent me. I can highly recommend Lauren and I will definitely book again in the future. Thank you 🙏 x”
About: I love spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've grown up with labradors and cocker spaniels, so I'm used to sociable, high-energy dogs. I've studied animal behaviour and cognition so I actively research and apply this theory when handling new dogs. I'm comfortable working with rescue dogs, and happy to take it slow with seniors who'd prefer a relaxed visit. I'm out walking my dog whatever the weather, and I have flexible working hours so I'm happy visit your dog(s) during the day and take them on some lovely long walks! My house has enough space for small or large dogs, and I have an enclosed garden they can enjoy. My spaniel, Cleo, will be around to help your dog feel comfortable. 🐶 I'm out walking whatever the weather! My job is flexible, and I tend to have time in the afternoons, so I am available to help out during the day for walks or home visits. My dog gets treated like royalty and yours will too! I'll respond to their personality and work with you to meet their specific needs while they're with me.
“Amazing service from Emma! Thank you so much for taking great care of Neo today. I loved receiving all the little updates and pictures from his adventures out walking. He seems really happy this evening if a little exhausted which can only be a good sign of an incredible day! I shall definitely be booking in with you again. Thanks so much for your assistance.”
“Nicola was absolutely brilliant with our dog Hugo. We met her before the stay, she was lovely and answered any queries we had. Her communications were clear, and we received regular updates and pictures of Hugo. This made us feel at ease. Thank you so much - we would definitely use again!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my dedication to providing the best possible care for your furry family members. In addition to my experience caring for my own cats, I have also volunteered at animal shelters and have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs, birds, and small mammals. I am committed to maintaining a clean and safe environment for your pets, and I have a strong understanding of animal behavior and body language, allowing me to identify any potential issues before they become problems. Overall, my passion for animal care and my experience makes me a reliable and trustworthy choice for your pet-sitting needs. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family members and provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I am currently a student, so aside from the time I am at my college, I will have plenty of time to spend with your little fur baby. I can look after them on the weekdays too but I prefer the weekends more. I will be caring for the pet at the owner's house as my flatmates don't like to have dogs around the house. Within your home, I can crate your dog if needed and we will abide by the rules and restrictions you have set for them,
“Linda and her son were absolutely brilliant. They came and met us before our dog’s stay and from the moment they met Posy she adored them! Linda sent us regular updates and photos during the weekend. Posy had a wonderful time, thank you so much!”

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
I can't recommend Lyndsey & Jim enough, they treated my two rescue dogs Jager & Tequila like they were part of their own family. They couldn't do enough to make sure the dogs felt at home. I have never left my dogs with strangers before so was really apprehensive about leaving them for two weeks, but I needn't have worried. They were happy to meet all our dogs needs. We had regular updates, pictures & videos showing us how well the dogs were doing which helped considerably to put our minds at rest. I will not hesitate to book again.
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.

FAQs for Boarding - Telford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Telford 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 872 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Telford . 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 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 .
