About: Hey, I'm Jackie. I've loved and been surrounded by dogs most of my life. :) Growing up, my family bred dachshunds. From a young age, I pet-sat and dog-walked for my neighbour's pets. My first official job was in a mall pet shop, bathing dogs and cleaning cages. In college, I worked at a doggy daycare that looked after dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm now the proud mom to two small rescue dogs (Maggie & Mango). I also have experience working with cats, small rodents, birds and exotic animals (I've had two pet hedgehogs and have looked after bearded dragons). I'm more than happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to get to know you and your pet before booking. I know how important it is to find the perfect person to take care of your best friend, and I would love to be that person! :) As a freelance voiceover artist, I have a flexible schedule. I'm available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can easily fit your pet care into my routine and will do my best to accommodate your needs. Currently based in Worthing. I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home and will follow any rules or guidelines you have (ie dogs not allowed in bed or on the sofa). My husband and I can also look after pets in our home. We're both freelancers, so home at all hours. We have a fully enclosed garden, and we also live near lots of lovely dog parks. Please note that we have two rescue dogs of our own. Maggie loves to play with new visitors, but Mango does not care to socialise. All dogs will have constant supervision.

We had such a great experience today! She really saved the day after I forgot to book daycare for our Harlow. From the start, she was so friendly, accommodating, and easy to communicate with. Harlow had the best time and came home so happy after making two new friends, especially her super cute dog, Winnie! It was clear he was well looked after and had lots of fun. She was incredibly available, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Thank you so much!

About: At Doggy Care, I pride myself on offering a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your canine companions. Whether it's a full day of doggy daycare or an extended stay in our trusted boarding care, I tailor each experience to meet your dog’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of canine behaviour and a passion for animal welfare, I provide personalised attention, structured play, and a cosy home-from-home atmosphere. From puppies to very active dogs, I ensure guests enjoy plenty of exercise, social interaction, and restful downtime under compassionate, watchful care. When your dog stays with me, they become part of my family—because I believe every tail deserves to wag with joy. Pet care is a structured and valued part of my daily and weekly routine. Each morning and evening, I allocate time for feeding, hydration, and general wellness checks to ensure the pet’s health and comfort. Daily walks or play sessions are prioritised to support both physical exercise and emotional enrichment. Throughout the week, my consistent approach not only meets my pet’s essential needs but also strengthens our bond over time. When i'm caring for pets, whether in my own home or a pet owner's home, I tailor the experience to the pet’s specific needs and the service being provided. In-home pet care often involves maintaining a familiar environment for the animal, following feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, ensuring daily exercise and enrichment, and keeping the space clean and safe. When pets stay in my home, I provide a warm, pet-friendly environment that’s structured yet comforting, with plenty of opportunities for play, socialisation, and relaxation. I also maintain regular updates and communication with owners to ensure peace of mind and continuity in care. My approach emphasises consistency, compassion, and attentiveness to each animal’s behaviour and well-being.

About: I have been a dog owner for the last 10 years and have cared for a variety of breeds alongside my own pets. I have experience with rescues and separation anxiety. I can provide a caring family environment where your dog will receive plenty of love and attention, including two walks per day with my resident dog, Cheddar, who is a friendly, three year old crossbreed. I have a secure, fenced garden for your dog to run and play and the house is situated between three parks and a bridle path leading to Cissbury ring for plenty of doggy exercise. I work part time, from home, during term time so your fur baby will always have company and access to outside space. They will be walked twice a day with our family dog, Cheddar. I have two children that haven’t known a home without dogs, so they are calm and confident around them and understand they need their own space, as well as plenty of attention. If your dog is used to a homely, family environment we could be a great fit! I have a fenced garden and crates if needed. The house is calm and quiet during the day with plenty of space to relax, or play. I can adapt to your dog’s routine to provide a stress free stay.

About: Hi! I may be new to dog sitting, but I’ve had my hands full for the past two years with my lovable Labrador. Being a dog mum has taught me responsibility, patience, and just how much love and attention dogs need to thrive. I can’t imagine life without dogs now, and I’d love to give your pup the same care, attention, and belly rubs I give my own. Your dog will be treated like part of the family in a safe, loving home environment. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of cuddles, so they feel comfortable and settled while you're away. For your peace of mind, I am fully insured for pet sitting and home boarding. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will care for them as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and well looked after. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring new smells, or simply curling up on the sofa for a nap, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and one-to-one care. I look forward to welcoming your furry family member into my home and giving them a fun, safe, and happy stay! 🐾❤️ I work part-time, so I have good flexibility for dog care. Thursdays and Fridays work best for me, with the occasional weekend available. As a teacher, I’m often free during school holidays, which means lots of time for overnight stays and doggy day care. Just be sure to book well in advance! I provide a safe and trusted home environment with a securely gated back garden for supervised outdoor time. My friendly Labrador is well-socialized and enjoys the company of other dogs. Indoors, there is ample space for comfortable sleeping areas and quiet rest, allowing your dog to feel calm and cared for.

About: I previously shared my life with a fox terrier from a well-known breeder, who passed away in 2016. I still miss him, and while I don’t see myself getting another dog of my own, I very much miss the companionship of dogs and the pleasure of walking with them. I’m confident and comfortable around dogs. My handling style is calm, assertive, and kind, and I have a good understanding of canine behaviour. When my dog was a puppy, I undertook six months of structured training with a highly reputable dog trainer in Southend. I also genuinely enjoy training through play and positive engagement. I have hands-on experience with basic dog grooming, including brushing, coat care, nail trimming, and general hygiene, and I’m comfortable handling dogs during grooming in a calm and reassuring way.

Liv is amazing with dogs and we would absolutely recommend her services and will be using her again!

About: Hello, I’m a big lover of dogs and their individual personalities. We had a family Labrador called Baileys who loved beach walks. I’ve co-parented a Pug called Darcie, who became disabled (her back legs buckled) and I took her for walks in a doggy rucksack, which she loved! Also, before they moved to Scotland, I was an auntie to my friend’s French Bulldog called Travis, who’s a rescue. I currently look after a French Bulldog called Tina - we met and bonded through ‘Borrow My Doggy’. Therefore, I have experience with a range of dogs, including dogs with disabilities as well as nervous, reactive dogs. Being a lover of the outdoors and nature, I enjoy taking dogs out for walks and on little adventures. I believe in giving all dogs the best quality of life and would love the opportunity to be a part of their doggy journey. I would like a dog of my own; however, due to socialising and travelling often my lifestyle won’t allow it. I work in student engagement at a local university and work from home a lot, so am open to a dog keeping me company at my ground floor flat where I live alone and have a front garden. I also have spare time some evenings and weekends, and am open to looking after dogs in owners’ homes overnight and for holidays. I’m happy to answer any questions you have, and look forward to hearing from you and your fur baby. I work from home 4 days a week (days vary), and can take your fur baby to the toilet when needed during this time, and for a walk at lunch and/or after work. At weekends I like to get out in nature and would be happy to take them with me to enjoy the outdoors. I have an unfenced front garden (where I would keep your fluffy one on a lead if required, or would supervise them if they can be off-lead). I live in 2 bedroom flat where I live alone, so lots of space for your fluffy one to be free with me.

You know within seconds that you'll be comfortable leaving your dog with someone and that's how we felt. Because of a medical condition our dog needs to be fed small amounts at regular intervals and Kate was happy to take the time out to do this. Also, Kate was able to take our dog for a good walk during the day. Can recommend without reservation.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Worthing

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Worthing on Rover is £28.75 per day (as of August 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 1,867 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Worthing. About 86% of Worthing 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 Worthing 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. Read more about our requirement for following local licensing requirements .
