“Deanne was very friendly and well prepared for Nevis first visit. He was happy to see her and rushed into the house. He had a lovely walk with her and Poppy. Completely happy for Nevis to stay again with Deanne.”

About: Dog obsessed and experienced with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve been walking dogs for over 16 years for clients, friends, and family, as well as volunteering at a dog rescue where I worked and trained with shy and reactive dogs. I’ve also owned a Romanian rescue dog for the past 5 years, which has given me hands on experience training in handling reactivity, building trust and understanding the full needs of a reactive dog. I'm currently working from home so my schedule is very flexible and can walk your dog whenever suits you and your furry friend. I am available Mon-Fri and most weekends. I have a fully fenced secure garden and live close to lots of lovely areas to walk and play. Love to go for long walks and go for some adventures!
“Orla had a great time with Junior and Fabiana! She enjoyed her nice long walks, gets along really well with Blu and comes home a very happy girl every time. They’ve also been really flexible even with last minute requests, highly recommend 😊”

“Wanda spent a great day with Lisa. My Wanda had a treatment on her paws and Lisa applied it without problem. She spent a great day resting and exploring the garden. Very happy with the service, I definitely recommend daycare with Lisa.”

“Jing & Eugene took great care of Mizuki and she had the best day with them! They were really accommodating to her needs and kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and messages.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier! From the initial meet and greet it was clear that Roisin and Alex were dog lovers and their puppy is lovely too! Throughout the day of day care we were kept well informed of how our dog, Leia, was and with lots of photos of her receiving cuddles and looking right at home! It’s so comforting to know she’s being cared for like a home away from home and we won’t hesitate to have her stay with them again in the future ☺️”

“We felt Mickey was in very safe hands with Dominique. She was quick to communicate, friendly and professional. Dominique clearly loved and understood dogs' needs. Very happy to book again.”

About: I love pets and have 6 of my own. I worked for We love Pets for a couple of years and trained in pet first aid. Two dogs one small breed terrier that’s full of energy and absolutely ball crazy. My second dog is a lab already a old girl and the gentle giant in the family. Then there is four cats of different sizes and temperament making up a lot of experience with pets all around. I walk my own dogs for an hour at 6am and then again in the evening. I have time every afternoon to walk as my pups get too tired having two walks a day already. I enjoy walks in parks and high energy playful dogs as well. Especially if it includes ball throwing. If your fur baby has any quirks or specific requirements then just let me know in advance. I currently work with pets full time and have a great relationship with my customers. I can do walks every day depending on my schedule. I have a fenced in garden and lovely walks near my home. Also a large crate available for dogs that nap better in a crate.
“Another happy stay with Ziyi. Photo updates and prompt responses to messages as usual. A happy pooch at pick up. Plus on this occasion they were very understanding and flexible because of our delayed train pushed us later than the agree picked up slot.”

“Megan and Craig are absolutely lovely. We had a meet and greet with them first, with our puppy. They’re really enthusiastic, relaxed and clearly love dogs, even boisterous puppies like ours! So we felt confident in them immediately. This was our puppy, Crumpet’s, first time of being left for the day without one of us, and Megan was really understanding and supported/looked after Crumpet really well and Crumpet seemed very happy at Megan’s house. We’ll definitely be booking Megan and Craig again.”

“Gemma took wonderful care of our cocker spaniel while we were away for six days. She had a fantastic time with Gemma and her family, and especially enjoyed playing with their dogs. She was taken on regular trips to the park, where she could run off-lead and play freely. Gemma also sent regular photos and updates, which kept us reassured and informed throughout. It was clear she treated our dog as if she were one of her own. I would highly recommend Gemma to anyone considering her for doggy daycare or boarding.”

“I am so glad to have found Emily and Ed to look after Ghillie two days a week. Emily took the time to understand Ghillie’s needs and story, which put me at ease. I experience them both as kind and caring; communication is smooth and easy. Highly recommend ☺️”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from big softies like Rottweilers to cheeky little terriers so I’m used to all sorts of personalities and energy levels. I recently had to say goodbye to my rescue brindle Lurcher (you’ll spot her in a lot of my photos), who was my beloved shadow for over 10 years and my Rover pet sitting coworker! I work from home full-time so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long (or at all if that’s what they need). I’ve looked after a lot of high need rescue dogs including my own, so I completely understand that some dogs need a bit of extra patience, reassurance and time to settle and that’s absolutely fine with me. I live in a quiet ground-floor flat with a secure enclosed garden, and there’s a big park nearby for walks, whether your dog loves a good run or prefers a slower wander. I’ll always follow your routine as closely as possible and I will keep you updated while you’re away so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well looked after. As I am working from home I can be accommodating to your dogs needs, if they need walks or medication administered at a certain time etc. I will only walk your dog on the lead with the exception of regulars that I have got to know over time, as I need to be confident I can keep them safe.
“Jupiter had a lovely day with Kyla, Duncan and Copper. Kyla was super patient with Jupiter (and me!) when I dropped him off and was not at all phased by his initial anxiety at being left. She took the time to ask about him and his preferences and gently let him get used to being in a new place. I had some great photos and a video and felt totally reassured and confident that he was settled, happy and being well looked after. Duncan and Kyla also accepted my booking at the very last minute when I had been let down by another sitter. They couldn’t have been more accommodating and helpful :) I would absolutely recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Jupiter with them again.”


“Olivia stepped up at short notice and took lovely care of our little excitable dog. She had a great time playing with her dogs and a delightful day all round. Will definitely book again!”

“Thanks again so much for another lovely day with you. Cooper is always relaxed and happy when he comes home so I can tell he's had a good time with you. I really appreciate how aware you are of his nervousness around other dogs and the way you deal with this. We're really glad we've found you!”

“She is great, Bori came back home and slept five hours straight which I took as a real fun hanging out with Amanda’s doggo during two walks. He looked like he had a good comfortable day.”

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 Vale of White Horse 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 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.
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.
