“Keith and Michelle were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Maya. They are kind, caring, and clearly love what they do. Maya enjoyed plenty of long walks and came home happy and relaxed. I couldn’t ask for better people to look after her — highly recommended!”
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, horses and small animals. I often look after my mums staffy and my children are well trained around animals. Friends and colleagues have also trusted me to look after their furry friends! We have a lovely home and a loving heart and are willing and open to lend a hand to those who need it. I work part time from home for Children’s Services so am around for all your dogs needs. Lots of time for us to play and for walks. We live in a lovely area with a good sized garden. We enjoy long walks and the beach so will keep your pup fully entertained and loved. Our evenings are usually quieter so lots of times for cuddles. I have a good sized fenced garden to keep your dog safe. We do have a cat but she often spends time outdoors and does not seem interested in other animals. We are able to offer long walks and I do have a bath which I can offer washes if needs be.
About: I’ve always had pets/animals in my home from a young age. I’ve always taken responsibility in looking after them and give them all the love in the world. I’ve had experience with both cats and dogs and my dog at the end of his life I am a staff nurse so am free on various days of the week, and can be around for the pets on my days off for the whole time they’re in my care I have a large fenced garden with plenty of space to roam around. No other pets in the property yet due to just buying the property
“Joan, Was friendly, professional and quick to reply to any enquiries. She provided regular updates and photos of her coastal walks with my dog Bert. I would recommend Joan to anybody - 5 stars!”
“Kerry and family were very welcoming to Oreo, he seemed to settle quickly and was very happy, they provided a home from home, with more freedom than he is used too. Would definitely recommend and will use again next time we come to Dorset.”
“Zoe is a gem. She responded to our request for Ginger to stay, speedily and efficiently. Our little dog was so happy when we collected her, testimony to being so well cared for by Zoe during her two night stay. Thank you for being so kind and lovely to Ginger - beach walks included! We will be back. Stu”
“Teddy had a fabulous time with Jackie. Jackie sent us videos and photos during his stay which was very reassuring. We were delighted to here he settled well and will be welcome to go again. Thanks jackie”
“Ross looked after my Jackapoo Enzo for a night last weekend, Enzo can be quite choosy as to who he gets to like but immediately took to Ross who clearly has a great way with dogs. I was struck by Ross’s preparation involving a questionnaire about Enzo and his likes and dislikes. Ross will be my go to person when Enzo needs to be cared for in the future.”
“This was Gwens first time away from the family and we were worried as she's quite a sensitive dog. Alex was amazing with her, she gave us regular updates and Gwen thoroughly enjoyed her stay. Lots of lovely walks and lots of playing ball. We have no hesitation in using Alex again and thoroughly recommend her. Thanks again Alex and family”
“Thank you again Catherine, you're a star...Loki loves staying with you and Barney. Catherine is extremely accommodating and flexible to any changes, of which I made at least 2 😬. I would absolutely recommend Catherine to anyone looking for a homely experience knowing their dog will be well cared for and treated like one of the family ☺️”
“Sandie looked after our Labrador Luna for 2 weeks and she couldn’t have been in better hands. Luna was treated as part of the family and she had a great time with Sandie and the other dogs. She may even have come back slightly better behaved! Luna was still recovering from an op and Sandie took great care of her so we were able to relax and not worry about Luna.”
“Our 8 month old pup stayed here recently and had the best time. She came home tired and happy. Wonderful large enclosed garden and lovely people. Have already recommended and looking to rebook for October. Thank you so much for having Mabel ?”
About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 16 years old from boarding to walking and general checkups. I work with animals professionally have multiple years of medical training under my belt. I am more than comfortable with all breeds, species and temperaments. 🩷 I currently work 4 days a week so am available all evenings and all days on my days off to take care of your loved ones. I have a three week rolling rota so have very consistent days off for full day hoardings. Depending on how close you live to my work I am also available to do lunch time drop ins and quick walks/feeds on my lunch breaks. I am very flexible and can work around you :) For boarding I have a fenced in garden that they can have full access too. I don’t have any pets or take care more then one households pets at a time so they will never be around unfamiliar animals. For walks I offer a 30 min to an hour and a half evening walk. I will never walk your dog with another houses dog and will always keep them on leash for their safety :) For pet sitting at your home it is always your house your rules and will always make sure they are being cared for exactly as you request. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
“Sarah and her husband took great care of my dog and it was clear she felt super comfortable and relaxed in their care. Sarah provided regular updates and photos and I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend them! I will certainly be reaching out for future dog sitting needs!”
“Jack had a lovely time staying with Sue for two nights. Sue sent regular updates and photos so I knew what they'd got up to, and how he was doing. He was clearly totally comfortable when I picked him up, and I'd happily book again.”
“It was a perfect 1st stay away from home. Millie was made very welcome and Aga helped her to settle and maintained her routine. Aga couldn't have been more accommodating or caring and her updates with regular photos showing Millie happy and enjoying herself were very reassuring. A great dog minder that I will use again and would be happy to recommend.”
“Chester absolutely loved his time with Jane, he was super excited to be dropped off and we were able to leave knowing his was in safe hands! He loved making some new doggy friends, and would love to visit again :-) Thank you Jane!”

I would definitely recommend Nicola, she provided a lovely holiday for my dog Bessie who is blind and requires particular care. Bessie looked very content & happy in the photos and videos Nicola sent me throughout the stay. I feel very confident leaving her there in the future.
Paul was an amazing dog sitter! Richie stayed with him and his family for just over a week, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Paul has a wonderful home and a lovely family, which made me feel completely at ease leaving Richie in their care. They followed all of my instructions regarding feeding and his daily routine, and it was clear that Richie was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. I also really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind throughout his stay. I would absolutely book with Paul again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter.
From the start I felt completely comfortable leaving Cashew with Keith. He was unfazed by Cashew's speedy nature and asked all the right questions about looking after him during his stay. I received some lovely photos showing a very relaxed dog. I would not hesitate to recommend Keith and I am sure I will be requesting to book Cashew with him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Weymouth on Rover is £40.25 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 317 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Weymouth . 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 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.
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 .
