“The great care that Daniel and family provide for Harry continues. Harry loves his days at his home from home and I enjoy receiving the photos and updates throughout the day. Harry is definitely looking forward to his next stay with Daniel.”

About: We are experienced dog sitters with plenty of love to give! We both work remotely from home so we can offer your dog our full attention and spoil them silly! We have a mixed Bichon at home with us (DouDou) who is very calm and docile. We have experience dog sitting for and owning various breeds our entire lives. Rai is home based, studying online and working occasional evenings. Carly is in the office Tues-Thursday and available every evening, so one or both of us will always be around to keep your pet company as needed! We love hiking and running as much as a chill day at home on the couch so can offer your dog the best of both worlds! We have a fenced garden with grass for toilets breaks and lots of games, as well as a park just 5 minutes away for a chance to enjoy the outside. We’re a pets-on-furniture household but can accommodate if you’re training them not to.
“Katie did a great job with Noodle. We arranged a pre visit just to familiarise everyone, and on the day itself Noodle was really well looked after, exercised and given lots of cuddles. We appreciated the updates during the day too.”

“Sarah has been a fabulous sitter for our pup Teddy. She is very accommodating, provides a lovely warm and settled atmosphere and really helped us with the day to day training of a young pup whilst I juggled work in an office and childcare. Teddy always came home happy and loved his days with Sarah! Would definitely recommend.”


About: I’ve looked after dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have always been the person friends and family rely on when they need someone dependable to care for their pets. I currently have a 3-year-old cocker spaniel called Ozzy, so I understand the importance of routine, exercise, patience and giving dogs the right balance of attention and calm. I also regularly look after my mother-in-law’s 4-year-old lab, Max, which has given me experience caring for larger, energetic dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, play, overnight care and sticking closely to routines that help pets feel settled and secure while their owners are away. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone else, so I always aim to provide thoughtful, reliable care and regular updates throughout. I work from home, so my routine is very flexible and I can plan pet care around each dog’s needs. I’m available for dog walks and home visits on weekdays between 11:30am and 2pm, and I’m also available at any time on weekends. I’m happy to work around regular routines, whether that means a steady walk, a lunchtime check-in, feeding, playtime, or simply giving your pet some company while you’re out. For walks and visits, I focus on keeping pets safe, settled and cared for in their usual routine. I’ll follow any instructions closely, make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, and give them attention, play or a calm walk depending on their needs. As a dog owner myself, I’m attentive to behaviour, exercise needs and giving dogs the right balance of play, structure and downtime. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality and any specific requirements so they receive care that feels familiar and consistent. I’ll always keep owners updated, so you know your pet has been looked after properly while you’re out.
“Ka Man was able to help us with day care at very short notice which we are very grateful for. Pebbles can be initially seem quite anxious in an unfamiliar environment but Ka Man was very respectful of Pebbles which enabled her to settle giving her space. As a result Pebbles was noticeably excited to return for her second day with Ka Man ❤️”

“Neda was so welcoming to Peggy on her first visit. Great regular updates- we loved to see the pictures and videos! Thank you Neda for making our first experience of Rover so positive!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, different sizes and breeds. I used to volunteer on a shelter from the age of 16 when I was still living in Spain, and I also helped my brother with his dog business when I was at home. I groom my own dog and I have groomed other dogs too :) I brought my 13 year old Cocker Spaniel to Manchester with me in 2015. He's still by my side, he's getting old and is castrated, he's a very relaxed good boy :) I gave up on my career 2 years ago due to motherhood. Not planning to go back to my office days. Plenty of time in my hands to allow for flexibility and the right care for your pet. :) I'm currently off work as I have been taking on a career break to extend my child's care. She's now attending to nursery. With 3 days notice to get organised, I can be available anytime, on a daily/weekly basis. Hello! I'm Blanca, I am based in Carrington, with beautiful fields and countryside at the door step of my house, which also has a very good sized garden. I gave up on my career to extend my child's care, but now she's going to nursery and she's on 50/50 shared care. I own a 13 years old Cocker Spaniel, and I have owned other breeds in the past when I used to live at home (German shepherd, Jack Russell & Pitbull). I enjoy spending time with dogs and even though I do not hold any professional certification, I would be able to guarantee the best care for your pet. As a Spanish woman living in Manchester for the past 12 years, I know how important it is to find someone reliable and truly caring to look after your best friend, especially when you have no family members to support you with this. I have been on the other side for many years when I was working in the office or when needing to travel back home. Whether you need dog walks, night care or full day care while away, I can be here for you to offer that top-notch support so your pets always feel loved and cared for in a warm and welcoming environment for them. My services include attentive pet sitting tailored to your pet's needs. From fun play sessions to relaxing walks, your dogs will receive the best care possible. With my experience and devotion, you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. If you're interested in personalized pet care and want to discuss your needs further, feel free to message me
“Samia has been amazing in caring for Oaty and so patient with him. This is our returning daycare with Samia and Oaty is so excited to see her and that speaks volume to how happy he is with her. Samia is very kind to make extra snacks for Oaty and spend time to bond with him through play, walks and chill time. We really appreciate her help and Oaty definitely had a great time with her and her little pup, Bleu.”

“Stan had a brilliant time at Sarah's, a testament to her, that he actually ate when he was with her. Stan normally won't eat his food for around 12 hours if I'm not around, even with my husband, so for Stan to eat is a huge sign he was happy. He came back tired 🤣 obviously been a busy boy. Thanks for taking such good care of Stan Sarah and we look forward to seeing you next week 😄”

About: Hi, I’m Harry! My wife and I have always loved dogs, but we’re not quite ready for the 10+ year commitment—so I get my furry fix by caring for other people’s instead! I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, especially Border Collies like Bonzo, Skye, Jaeger, and Bruce, and I love keeping pups happy with long walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and ages: Lara, a 2-year-old Alsatian; Coco, an 8-year-old Cockapoo; my sister’s Border Collie Onyx; and even three Yorkshire Terriers—Lucky and Happy, both around 13, and Freddie, who I raised from a puppy. I’ve provided daily walks, play, toilet breaks, and lots of love, whether for short visits, overnight stays, or longer house-sits. I’m happy to host dogs at my home too. While we’re currently renovating, your dog will still enjoy a safe, loving environment and all the care and attention they deserve. I treat every dog like part of my own family, and their happiness is my top priority! I’m lucky to have a full-time job that lets me work from home most days, so I can easily fit walks, playtime, and toilet breaks around meetings and tasks. I usually go into the office twice a week, but when I’m out, my wife helps share the duties, so your dog will always have company and attention. My weekends are completely free, so I can dedicate full days to walks, play, and cuddles! I provide a safe, loving environment for dogs in my home. I have a fenced garden where dogs can run, play, and explore safely. I make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I also provide regular toilet breaks and ensure they’re comfortable and happy while you’re away. If I’m caring for dogs at a pet owner’s home, I follow their routines closely to make sure the dog feels safe and at ease.
About: I have experience with big dogs, having had a Rottweiler, and Huskies, as well as energetic dogs like border collies. I frequently look after a nervous Romanian rescue called Mabel I work from home, so have a lot of time during the day for dog walks, and am always ready to give pats. Having had dogs all my life, I love walking and walk everyday, so bringing a friend would be a bonus! Having had pets, I know that they are always a part of the family. I treat each pet as my own with plenty of pets and encourage positive training!
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life - from my first family dog growing up to my soul dog, Lucy, who me and my boyfriend, Joe, have now! We’ve always been happy to take care of other dogs no matter their age or size. This means we’ve had experience with 2 puppies, right up until caring for a senior dog who had multiple illnesses and required medications and extra loving. I’m work from home Monday-Fri, and Joe works fairly flexibly so there is usually at least one of us at home. We have our own dog so she is always built into our plans and we often like to take day trips out in our campervan to give Lucy a fab day out. We have a safe, enclosed garden with plenty of room to run about and our living room door backs onto this so we can always keep an eye on pups playing outside. Lucy isn’t crate trained but we’d be happy to accommodate a crate if provided.

About: We have around 15 years of experience growing up with and looking after our family dogs, Meg, Gem and Evie! We love dogs but are not yet at the stage to get one of our own, so feel this is the perfect in between! We both work full time but are flexible with work from home days and are more than happy to help over weekends! We will be able to walk your dog before work, at lunch or after work if they are with us during the week. We have a fenced garden so your dog can enjoy outdoor space safely! There is plenty of space to have a crate / dog bed in the dining room / kitchen.

About: I have dogs of my own (Cockapoos) and am home with them the majority of the time. I have a grooming salon which I run from home and I also breed cockapoos from time to time. I'm a whelper, canine fertility specialist and I love all things dogs. I hold a license with Trafford Council for breeding and dog boarding, so you know I run a high quality business and will always put the dogs' welfare first I am already caring for my own dogs and I find when boarding additional dogs, they quickly settle into the routine we have here. A typical day looks like this: Breakfast Clean up Chill time Lunch (if your dog has lunch), then clean up Walkies - I tend to have a regular schedule for walking routes, with different places on different days Home for clean up Dinner TV, play time and relaxation in the evening My dogs sleep in my bedroom with me - I have a double bed and they sometimes sleep on the bed but other times, choose the floor or the landing. There are crates available downstairs with beds in and covers over, so if anyone wants some quiet time, they will take themselves in their preferred safe place There is an automatic dog flap on the back door and everyone has their own sensor on their collar so they are free to leave and enter the house for toileting day or night I am regularly moving between the garden, house and grooming salon so any mess that needs sweeping up is cleared frequently Downstairs at home is all hard floors and is mopped as often as is needed throughout the day If there are any accident on the carpets upstairs, I have a pet carpet shampoo machine so it's quick and easy to do and is done as soon as anything happens

I can’t recommend Emma highly enough. Charlie has a wonderful time when he stays with Emma and her partner. They send me pictures to keep me updated and I can see Charlie is a very contented dog in their care. Charlie has stayed several times already and is booked in again in the near future

Amanda has been amazing with our two girls and they’ve really enjoyed their time with her. She’s been flexible with timings when needed and supported the differing needs of our senior spaniel and 8mth old puppy. We will definitely be using her again and I’d highly recommend.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Trafford
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Trafford on Rover is £27.6 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 2,729 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Trafford. About 86% of Trafford 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 Trafford 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 North 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 .
