“We couldn’t thank Jack enough for looking after our family Dog, Narla! We would 100% recommend him, we booked Jack quite last minute and he was very accommodating and I was able to meet and greet Jack in his home prior to Narla staying for the weekend, which put my mind at ease knowing she would be well looked after! Jack sent regular updates and photos throughout and treated Narla like his own! Thanks again, we will be rebooking 😊 x”

About: Myself and my partner, Hayden, have grown up around dogs our entire lives and adore their company. We have experience of puppies all the way through to elderly dogs, well-behaved and those with behavioural issues. We have both been zookeepers in the past too so that really shows our love for animals and understanding of animal behaviour. We are both good with training, providing play and enrichment, and ensuring the environment is suitable depending on your dog’s needs. Our own dog just adores other dogs. She is a 2 year old German Shepherd x Rottweiler, and is still a playful pup. For this reason we do not accept the smallest dogs just in case her play is too boisterous. As you can tell in the photos, we are active people who love a long walk, and enjoy providing enrichment and play time. I am currently working full time from home, so will always be available to meet your dog’s needs. Also, my partner is around more often to provide care if I was to have a meeting. We are huge dog lovers so your dog can really treat our home like their own, including sofa cuddles, playing with our dog and joining us on days out. As we have a dog of our own, we will always fit a walk into our day. This can be done however best suits your dog I.e. multiple short walks or one big long walk. We would allow your dog to sleep anywhere downstairs in our home. Unfortunately, we do not allow dogs upstairs as this is very much our cat’s domain. We can ensure that our dog is kept separate to yours overnight though if this is best. Our home has a fenced garden with ample space to play with our resident dog. Our home is a work in progress, so we are not precious about anything. If something is damaged by your dog we will not blame them or punish them. We also don’t expect a perfectly trained dog.
“Trisha, Shane & Juliet - thank you so much for looking after Socks this week after i needed to travel away for work. Socks had a fantastic time staying with you & had lots of play with Juliet, snuggles and walks with you both. You did a fantastic job of keeping me up to date on how Socks was & what she had been up doing. Have no hesitation in recommending you to others to look after their furry friends. Socks is already looking forward to visiting you all again in August. Thank you again.”
“As always Jen kept us updated with lots of pictures of Ziggys days out and couch cuddles. If your going on a holiday or day out that your dog can’t go on but want them to have a great time too then book in with Jen!”
“We couldn’t have hoped for a better experience, this was the first time leaving our dog with a sitter and Jhenelle and her lovely family were a perfect fit! We got lovely updates throughout the stay and our dog looked so happy and like she was having the best time! We will 100% book Jhenelle again, couldn’t be happier!”
“I think my dog enjoyed his stay with Molly. He came out calm and happy. Molly was lovely to deal with and gave me photos and updates. Would recommend. Thanks Molly!”
“Couldn't be happier with Kieran and his partner and ofcourse Otis, Kieran gave me updates morning, day and night. Floki has came home exhausted and abit deflated think he misses his mate Otis haha! I would recommend 1 million per cent, excellent care provided. Will definitely be using Kieran again in the future if needed. Thank you”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! From the very beginning, it was clear that my sitter genuinely loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously. Katie kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. It’s obvious they were given plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I also really appreciated how professional and reliable the sitter was—everything was smooth and stress-free from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Wonderful host!! Murray was so well looked after on his little holiday. Amy & family are the perfect hosts, nothing was too much trouble, update photos & messages were lovely & reassuring as it was Murray’s first time away from home (& mine away from him!) Can’t recommend Amy & family highly enough - thanks so much.”
About: I’ve had 3 to 5 dogs at all time growing up between my parents houses back in France, from a cocker spaniel to a golden retriever and a Great Dane, I’m used to shedding, puppies, old, big dogs… the 6am walks in the cold, you name it! I have a very chill cavapoo at home now so only accepting dogs that are okay with other male dogs (he is neutered) Im an at home artist so Im at home most of the time, If I go anywhere I just take the dogs with me ! I have 1 dog at home who is super friendly but anxiously attached so I don’t go anywhere without him. He loves having dog friends over too! I will be the sole carer of your babie(s) though we may be joined by my friends on walks ! I have a closed up garden, i have Bean my dog who will gently play with your dog too or just cuddle on the sofa. Bean sleep in my bedroom and I’m okay with letting your dog there too or crate them in other area of the house. I’m pretty easy it really depends on your preferences
“Opie had a great stay! From the start, everything felt really professional—they provided a form to fill out and arranged a meet and greet beforehand, which gave me a lot of confidence. During his day and overnight stay, I was kept regularly updated on how Opie was doing and what he was getting up to, which I really appreciated. It made me feel relaxed knowing he was in good hands. Overall, a very positive experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!”
About: We have always had dogs in the family ranging from jack Russels, labradors and Shih Tzus. We currently have a very friendly greyhound, Seamus who is both dog and cat friendly. We have a lot of experience with dog minding so let us take care of your dog with the peace of mind we will treat them like our own. We live close to the beach, parks and woodland and your dog will be out every day with us enjoying the fresh air. If your dog sleeps on the couch or bed at home then we will do the same as we know how important it is for your dog to feel comfortable and happy. We are fully insured. We are a family of 3 - myself, my husband Sean and our 5 year old daughter. I currently work 2 days a week as a district nurse. Our mother in law kindly pops in to see Seamus for us when we are in work and is happy to do the same if we ever had your dog on a working day but we would usually work around this and my husband can work from home. We go for daily walks and have local parks and the beach close by so your fur baby will be spoilt for choice for walkies! We will try and ensure we keep to a routine for your dog as we know they like their comforts! We have a fenced yard and a local park that we go to daily, we also have a closed off field near by with gates for your dog to run around if they are not great off lead, this ensures they are safe at all times. We have a local beach we also go to. Our greyhound Seamus is very friendly and is used to having dogs in the home. If your dog sleeps on the couch or bed we will accommodate this. We have a 5 year old very pet savvy little girl who absolutely loves looking after animals. Our daughter is aware to give dogs time to get used to new environments and people and she is very kind to animals so please be assured you dog will be in safe hands with her. Even though our daughter is very experienced with animals your dog would never be left alone with her so your dog will be comfortable at all times. If you would like to arrange for your dog to spend the day or night with us before you go away please let us know. At dog owners ourselves we know how important it is for you to know your dog is being left in safe hands
“Tasha and her partner took really good care of Lila my Irish Blue Terrier. Although no longer a puppy, Lila is very active and energetic when out on her walks. They communicated really well whilst I was away, which was very reassuring. First class treatment. Thanks so much.”
“What can I say, from the welcome ness of the family to the lovely home and the lovely messages about how the dogs was doing, made me have a so needed switch off and knowing they was being cared and loved for. The love the dogs had when I went to pick them up showed how much they had been loved. Thank you will defiantly recommend and will most defiantly use again X”

Dog owners share their Rover experiences – Wirral
Susan and Julian looked after our Jack Russell Lucy for a week while we were on holiday . They are clearly very experienced dog boarders and gave us great confidence Lucy would be well cared for . We recieved daily updates and pictures which really helped. Lucy settled very quickly into thier home and was cared for very well indeed. We hope to be able to use thier services again . We would have no hesitation recommending them . Thank you Susan and Julian.
Absolutely lovely guys! We felt completely at ease leaving our Labrador with them, and it was so nice to see how happy and comfortable he was throughout his stay. We got lovely updates and could really tell he was having a great time and being well looked after. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much! ❤️
We had a great experience when Katie cared for our Whippet. Communication was easy through the Rover app and we received regular updates and photos which was reassuring. Katie and her family took Stella out to the beach and to the woods and she slept in her crate overnight as she usually does when she's at home. Thank you for having her, I think she's had a great weekend!
Luke & his lovely family made sure Barney had a proper home from home. Lots of updates with photos showing him enjoying his regular walks, cosying up with family on the sofa & generally having a wonderful little holiday of his own ❤️ Thank you Luke, Caz & Eddie xxx
Alison and Andy took great care of my Chihuahua, Otto, for a couple of nights recently. From the moment I met them a few months ago, I knew they were going to be diligent, careful and responsive in the way they would look after Otto. I had no hesitation in booking Otto to be looked after by them. Otto was looked after exceptionally well by Alison and Andy. They are very experienced at looking after dogs and were very calm with Otto which helped him settle in. I gave them lots of information about Otto and they ensured they got all details before I left him with them. He had a thoroughly good time with them and they were very patient and understanding of him being unsettled at times as this was the first time he had been looked after by them. Otto had a great time and slept soundly most of the afternoon and evening after he came home! A big thank you to Alison and Andy for taking such good care of Otto!
Andzelika was really good looking after our dog Stella when we were away on holiday. She provided daily updates and photographs including videos. Stella was clearly looked after and cared for, even given visits to the beach on a regular basis. I wouldn't hesitate to book Andzelika in the future.
My first time leaving Coco for a 7 day holiday. Visited Isabel at home & we also met up with her dogs & COCO. This really helped me knowing she would take good care of him. While away sent me photos & messages. I think he didn't miss me as much as I thought as he had Tank & Mabel as company. A big thank you to Isabel & boyfriend for making Cocos stay fun. X
Megan had my dog Max for the day while we moved house. He had the best day with her!! , Megan is lovely and Max adored her as soon as they met. I have never left him with anyone (he’s 4), I was nervous but her calming and lovely nature made me feel at ease. She also sent updates through the day telling me how he was. He loved her and probably didn’t even want to come home ha ha. I definitely recommend Megan :-)

FAQs for Dog Boarding – Wirral
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Wirral on Rover is £36.8 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,174 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wirral. 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 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.
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 .
