“Balloo had a great time with Rebecca, nice long & interesting walks in the countryside. Rebbeca sent photos of Balloo & kept me informed on how Balloo was doing, like all dogs he can get a distracted & little exited when he’s out walking, Rebbeca seemed to know exactly what to do. Rebbeca is a nice friendly person and straight forward, think any dog would love visiting xx”

“Samara had our pups for nearly a month, and they look like they’ve had the best time! In fact, I’m pretty sure Tea is planning to run back to them 😂 thanks so much! x”

“Ana is a kind and dedicated doggie owner and sitter. She took such care to welcome Truffle and gave her time to exercise and play with her. I highly recommend her as a sitter. Thanks from Lena and Truffle :)”

“Our dog boarded with Karolina and clearly adores her. Made a new furry friend Nutmeg too. Seemed very happy and well looked after. We were sent regular updates and photos. Will be using Karolina again”

About: I am new to Rover however, as a Dachshund owner myself and having had and looked after dogs my whole life, I will provide your pet a safe, warm and loving home whilst you are away. I only accept one Dachshund at a time. I will only have one Dachshund at a time so your pet will have my full care and attention alongside my own pet. I provide day boarding or cover for holidays. I have one miniature Dachshund called Rosie so your pet will always have a gentle play mate to have fun with. I will always try to match your home routine eg breakfast time, length of walks, favourite treats etc so that your sausage will settle and feel at home. I am within a mile of a reputable vet if any medication is needed. A meet and greet is welcomed before you decide to commit to a booking with me. I have a secure fenced large garden and plenty of beautiful countryside on hand if your pet would like additional walks. My house is single storey and there are no areas that your pet is not welcome…even on the couch! I have plenty of toys and bedding but I’m happy for you to bring along whatever you need for your pet to make them feel at home. If required I send pictures and updates whilst you are away so you can relax and enjoy yourself knowing that your pet is having a wonderful time too!!
“Would highly recommend Bryony and Matt. They had Milo for a long weekend and I felt so at ease and comfortable, they treat Milo like he’s their own and kept me updated. Milo gets very excited to them. Thank you x”


“Willow had her first overnight stay with Julie and Darryl last night.. she couldn't wait to get to their door when we arrived, she loves her new friends! Julie kept in touch throughout with messages, photos and a video and I know Willow is happy and relaxed there as she ate her dinner and breakfast this morning! Thank you Julie and Darryl for your excellent and thoughtful care of Willow and I'm sure many ball games too! I had complete peace of mind, see you again soon 😊”

“Joanna and her bf were wonderful hosts and super lovely. They have an adorable dachshund that’s close to Cosmo’s age too. We met for a play date 2 days earlier to introduce them to one another and it went well. Joanna was also knowledgeable in general Spitz behaviour which made me more comfortable. Cosmo has separation anxiety but she kept him company whilst ensuring she gave him his space when he wanted it. She kept me up to date, sent me photos, and was responsive. Glad Cosmo made new friends and will definitely visit again! 😊”

“Jasper had a really great stay with Jamie! Can really tell they’re dog lovers, they kept me updated with videos and pictures & Jasper looked like he had an absolute ball with George! I had a very happy & tired dog. Would absolutely recommend, thank you again! 🐾”

“First time with Francesca and first time with a sitter through Rover. Albie is an elderly chap and so needed a lovely comfy home. He was so well looked after and clearly became part of the family very quickly. I was kept updated on progress and was sent lovely photos. Couldn’t be happier. Thank you to Francesca and Jamie!”

“Liam is a wonderful dog sitter, considerate and thoughtful, sending lots of updates. We feel very lucky to have found somebody who cares for our dog and we trust implicitly”


“Once again, Ziggy had a wonderful stay with Sarah with lots of walks and cuddles! Sarah sent photos and videos of Ziggy and kept us fully updated. We are completely reassured that Ziggy receives the best care. Thank you, Sarah.”

“Huge thank you to Igor for looking after Rolo for us. Igor went out of his way to make Rolo feel at home particularly as it was his first stay. We are already booking Igor for our next trip away. Many thanks!”

“I was quite apprehensive to leave Winnie with anyone other than friends or family as she tends to be a little nervous, But Lucy put me at ease straight away. Her communication and updates were amazing, and I knew Winnie was being so lovingly cared for while I was away for work. A true 5-star doggie holiday! I’d absolutely recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a calm, home-from-home experience for their pup 🐾💛”

“Ruby and Steve were great. Dogs came back knackered (and still as well behaved as when they left!). Easy to communicate with, and accommodating, we’ll definitely want to send the girls back again.”

“Absolutely wonderful! Anya is a true dog lover, and made Olga feel right at home. I got regular updates and photographs of Olga out and about, snuggling in Anya’s bed, and huddled together on the couch with the family. Would recommend 100%, and will definitely be sending Olga there again”


About: We are a semi retired couple and our beloved black Labrador left us a few years ago. We love dogs and have the time to provide a temporary home - all dogs welcome. We have a big detached house with a secure garden. Our friends all have dogs and regularly call on us to dog sit. We are both mainly retired so have plenty of time on our hands to look after a dog (our adult kids are also dog lovers and would probably come home just to help out. We don’t really have a fixed routine so can provide flexibility if we are around. We are however on holiday a lot so can’t always be always be available. We have a big detached house with a secure garden. If you have a crate you are welcome to provide this alternatively we can throw down a dog bed in a choice of rooms. We have a footpath right outside our front door leading to many adventures.

“Thaisa sent regular photos of Pepper and looked after her really well, welcoming her into her home. I felt very happy that Pepper was being well cared for while I was away and would definitely ask Thaisa to look after Pepper in the future.”

Verity was able to help us out very close to the week we needed her, which was just fantastic. The dogs were excited to see her again after our meet and greet and spent a lovely week with her. Communication was great too. I’m sure our dogs would like to stay with her again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Natalie looked after our young cocker spaniel beautifully. Communication was excellent throughout. She was quick to respond to messages, reassuring, and kept us fully updated. We came home to a very happy puppy! We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Natalie.

Flora (and Griffin) were absolutely outstanding in the level of care and attention they gave Holly over the Christmas holiday. Holly is normally a very shy and timid dog who takes a while to trust strangers but, in a very short space of time, Flora literally had Holly eating out of her hand. We were so impressed - and relieved!! We were sent tons of short video clips of a happy Holly in various key activities. The house was brilliantly set up for looking after dogs with a lovely garden and high walls. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Flora to anyone anxious to find top quality dog minding. Thank you guys!! Mike, Sarah and Holly

Thank you so much for taking such lovely care of Bitey while I was away! She came home happy and clearly well looked after. It’s always a bit nerve-wracking leaving her the first time, but Annika sends daily updates, which really put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again or recommend you to other dog parents.

Jakub and Luka and their little French Ivy took fantastic care of Louis. You can tell instantly that Jakub and Luka not only love dogs but are also very experienced dog handlers. They are so friendly and relaxed and made me feel very at ease. Louis had a great time. They provided regular updates and I’ve taken away many tips as well on how to improve Louis’s diet and food! I would thoroughly recommend Jakub and I hope to be able to use them again! Gaby

Rebecca was exceptional with our puppy Maple. She had the most wonderful time and returned to us better trained than when we’d left her! We would definitely trust Maple with Rebecca next time we go away, knowing that she’d had a wonderful time in excellent hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Tonbridge on Rover is £42.45 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 11,531 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tonbridge . 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 South East 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.
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 .
