“We had a great experience with Sasha and her family! She is kind and caring! Communication was easy and smooth. We enjoy the regular photo updated a lot. Our dog had a great time. Would happily book again.”
“Sam is friendly and professional. Sam emails and sends pictures of Sol, my 9 year old cockapoo. She lets me know if he is not eating and prepares special for him. Sol loves going to stay with Sam and her family. This is s perfect match!”
“Bama absolutely loves going to play with his friends. He comes home exhausted (which is a positive thing!). Other places we have taken him, he was stressed and anxious for days after he returned home. Not at this boarders! He gets so excited now when we ask him if he wants to play with his friends and runs to the car!”
“David was the best sitter I could have asked for! Super kind and great updates ! I loved pictures and Izzy had so much fun! Big yard , great pups, great owner ! Highly recommend! Will using again just for playtime for Izzy!”
“Millie was great! She cared for Gracie as if she was her own. She sent us pics daily and kept up with her teeth cleaning and baths, ensuring Gracie was comfortable. Knowing Gracie was being so well taken care of allowed us to have a wonderful trip and peace of mind while away. We will definitely reach out to Millie in the future for any sitting needs :)”

“She was so so so great with our little Muffin! I was super nervous leaving Muffin with someone new but she was very sweet and loving. She let Muffin rule the house and hop on the couch which she loved. She also sent lots of pictures and feedback when I texted. I was very happy with her service. And muffin could not have been happier when I picked her up! I hope to use her again and again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alaqua Lakes
We left our recently adopted 11 year old dog Rufus with Millie for 13 days. Millie was great! She sent photos and updates daily. We never had a concern about Rufus’s wellbeing or safety. He enjoyed her fenced yard and he loved being the only dog. We will definitely use Millie again and highly recommend her!
Susann is awesome! This was the first time we had someone watch our dog (other than family) so we were nervous. She reassured us and sure enough, everything was perfect! We received detailed updates twice a day with many pictures so we saw our baby was having a great time and was being well taken cared of. Thanks to Susann and her family for all the care and attention they provided to our sweet dog!
Karen took exceptional care of our goldendoodle, Teddi. She sent frequent updates and photos and took her on a lot of walks. She went over and above to make sure Teddi felt comfortable and cared for. I would definitely recommend Karen for anyone needing a sitter for their fur baby!
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Sarah! Leaving Cooper for 10 days while we traveled to India was tough, but Sarah made it so much easier. She treated him like her own, taking him on fun walks and dog park adventures. The frequent photo and video updates were the highlight of our trip! Cooper clearly had a blast. Highly recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alaqua Lakes home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alaqua Lakes.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alaqua Lakes sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
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 .
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.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
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 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 veterinarian. 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 authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization 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.
