“I could not rate Marlina highly enough. She took my little boy at very last minute for an overnight stay and was my first time using Rover. I was a bit nervous but on meeting her felt very reassured. Marlina was so gentle and loving to my boy straight away. The house is so lovely and has such a big garden my little boy loved it. I was kept updated all the way throughout with photos and videos and he looked like he was having such a fun time I didn’t think he would want to come home! I would definitely use Marlina again ..thank you so much 😊, lovely lady, lovely home, great all round.”
“Thanks for taking such good care of Edie she seems very relaxed and happy on pick up which to us meant she was comfortable in your care. When you have time we look forward to you sitting again. Best regards Corby & Stephen”
“Irene was amazing with my dog! I received regular updates with adorable photos, and my dog was clearly happy and well cared for. The love and attention given was exceptional. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Elsie has the best time. Everything went really smoothly from the meet and greet to the drop off and plenty of communication during our trip. Elsie had plenty of exercise and it was great she had lovely Cheddar to keep her company. Would certainly recommend Greg and Kiti and great hosts.”
“Fantastic as always! Eva was so helpful when I dropped off Zambezi and throughout the weekend she was super informative and even spoilt my pup! Thank you so much for looking after Zambezi.”
“Dany is just great, my dog adored him from the moment he met him and he's not easily won over! He loved his time with Dany and I was kept informed constantly with updates and photos which was so reassuring. So happy to have found Dany, we will be using his services a lot. Highly recommended.”
“Marina took great care of Enzo. He was well looked after, got taken on many walks and he looked so settled when he was with her. Marina sent us daily updates when she looked after him which put our mind at ease whilst we were away :)”
“Julie was amazing from beginning to the end of Reggie’s stay. She took into account his breed and needs during a really hot spell in the UK, keeping us up to date on his wellbeing. I would recommend her in a heartbeat”
About: I am a reliable and caring dog lover with many years of hands-on experience. I have owned and cared for dogs since the age of 14, giving me a strong understanding of their needs, behaviour, and wellbeing. I offer dog walking and dog sitting services, ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and am committed to providing a safe, happy, and trustworthy service. Although I don't currently have a dog of my own, this is mainly due to having a large family and the commitments that come with it. However, I have owned and cared for dogs since I was 14 and genuinely miss having them around. We have also donated to the charity Guide Dogs for many years. Caring for dogs brings me a lot of enjoyment, which is why I offer dog walking and pet sitting services. Part of the week, my blended family stays with their other parent, which gives me plenty of free time, flexibility, and attention to dedicate to caring for pets. This means I can provide dogs with the companionship, exercise, and care they need in a safe and loving environment. I can prioritise walks before and after work and I work from home twice per week where I can ensure pets receive consistent care, exercise, and affection within your home or mine. I am available for walks and check ins, doggy daycare within your home or mine and overnight stays (mainly weekends) where possible. Please connect with me to ask about availability as I can try to accommodate outside of my calendar schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for all pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in the owner's home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication requirements, and any specific instructions. I ensure pets have plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision, while keeping their environment clean, secure, and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and owners is very important to me, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.
“Georgiana was very welcoming and as this was my 1st time using a sitter, was very helpful and informative. She sent me pictures of Roo enjoying himself, which put me at ease. Would happily recommend her”
“Dottie always enjoys her stays with Kate and is treated like one of the family. Kate always keeps us informed with updates and photos which is much appreciated. Would definitely recommend and use again. Thank you Kate.”
“Debbie and Tom were so lovely and made me feel very confident that Gracie was in good hands. She can be a bit anxious and they definitely took that into account. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Debbie, she always replied to messages and even sent some photos whilst I was away. Thanks so much to you all. X”
“Becky was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Leon loved the family and was very settled. Lots of photos and messages letting us know how he was. Would totally recommend”

“Holly and her family were a lifesaver, I can't thank them enough for looking after Isla with all her extra needs. They are so caring, Isla came home happy and exhausted, which is always a good sign. If every I am over that way again, I would definitely book Isla in again. Can't recommend them enough. Thank you again Holly x”

Irene is our go-to dog sitter and again, Ivy has enjoyed another stay with the family, this time overnight. It's been a very hot stay for her, being in the middle of the recent heatwave, but Irene took great care of her and provided us with plenty of updates, much appreciated. I would have no hesitation in recommending Irene as a friendly, dependable, caring and trustworthy dog sitter.
This was the first time we’ve had a ‘stranger’ looking after our eight-year-old pooch, and I was nervous. Those nerves quickly went due to how caring and attentive Lorna is, and we’d happily request her dog sitting services again. You can tell she loves the dogs she looks after and makes them feel at home. Lorna kindly sent daily updates with photos to keep my mind at peace and took great care of our very needy and spoilt dog!
Rosie has never been away from home before, she was very nervous to start with but with in 10/20 minutes she had abit more confidence and settled down, Cleo Ryan's dog was a great help and gave her space, by the end of the visit Rosie had claimed her spot on the sofa thank you Ryan
Marina stepped in last minute to have Loki for me and was great from early conversations, booking to looking after Loki and giving regular updates of their adventures. She put my mind at ease, and is a lovely person. Will definitely consider her for having Loki in the future.
My pup was with Eva for a week. It was the first time I’ve left her for longer than a night with someone other than family but Eva put my mind at ease by assuring me that my dog would never be alone as someone was always in the house with her. My pup has allergies and is quite anxious in general but these traits weren’t an issue for Eva. I was updated with regular pictures and snippets about their days, which was really appreciated - and my pup was given her own water bucket to lounge in during the heatwave and her walks were done during the cooler hours which was perfect. When I returned, my pup wasn’t sure who to go to, so I saw that a good sign that she was well looked after and happy during her stay! Very happy with the care provided and I would gladly book Eva again in the future.
Excellent service from Sheila. Meg was well looked after and we had photos and videos sent with messages whilst we were away which was reassuring. Meg enjoyed the company of Hugo her 11 year old Labrador. She domineered the paddling pool but I don’t think Hugo was too bothered as he helped himself to Meg’s soft toys and she wasn’t bothered about that. They got on well together. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Sheila again or recommend her services. Nicky and Paul.
Susan looked after my dog for a few days over a very hot weekend and our dog was loved and made very much at home. They took her for lovely walks (with pictures) and even took her for a doggy ice cream. Susan is very friendly and communicates well with regular updates. I had no worries at all. I would recommend Susan if you are looking for someone to care for your dog. I would not hesitate to book again. Thank you Susan (and Stephen) for taking such good care of Dottie.
This is the first time we have left Max with a dog sitter and we were a little anxious about leaving him. Sylvie and her partner were great; you can tell they really care and take their dog sitting seriously. They put our minds at ease with daily updates and it was clear from the photos that Max had a great weekend with lots of fuss made over him! Would happily leave Max with them again :)
First time in leaving my Cockerpom Finley with Rebecca . Obviously a bit worried to start with but I need not have been! Rebecca sent me regular updates with photos, he settled in straight away, has been loved and looked after - a second family! No hesitation in recommending Rebecca to other pet parents she has been amazing.
Elsie has the best time. Everything went really smoothly from the meet and greet to the drop off and plenty of communication during our trip. Elsie had plenty of exercise and it was great she had lovely Cheddar to keep her company. Would certainly recommend Greg and Kiti and great hosts.
As always, fantastic care of my mad dog Murphy. Anna kept me updated with plenty of photos even though I was in Australia and if unsure about any of his querks, she would always check it out either me. Of course highly recommended but don't want her not to be available for me (ha ha). X

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Worcester
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Worcester on Rover is £36.8 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 1,120 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Worcester. 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 West Midlands 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 .
