Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Apopka
Pricilla is just the best. I’m big on punctuality but I had an emergency and was late for my original drop time and she was so patient with me. Which I appreciated so much. As soon as I drop my baby off and we drove off I received a picture from her I was surprised. But it was reassuring to see that she was already settling in. Each day I received pictures and videos update to seeing my baby playing with other friends and having fun. It was never delayed when I ask about how she is doing. I would get a response from her with seconds. After day one away from her I was more missing her than worrying about if she was okay. Priscilla took extremely good care of my baby and I was elated with her professionalism and making my heart settle just to see her giving me update when and when I don’t ask for it. Thank you Priscilla for such an amazing care of Blossom 🌸 and I will definitely be seeing you soon.Thanks from Blossom and I. 🌸🌸🌸🌸
I feel Rubie took great care of my pup. This was my first time using Rover or having anyone other than a friend or family member watch my little guy, so I was nervous. But Rubie made me and my pup feel comfortable with her service. She checked in and sent photos and videos of him having fun. I will definitely look for her assistance again in the future. Thank you!
Simone was very good with brooklyn and informed us every day with updates on his care. She has a dog of her own which we where worried our dog wouldn't get along but instead he made a friend and enjoyed himself. We had a 5 day booking for a cruise trip and had got delayed an extra day but Simone helped us out and kept him the extra day. We where very satisfied with Simone and will definitely use her again next time.
Meri did an amazing job taking care of our 11-month-old puppy during his first overnight stay. We were a bit nervous since it was his first time, but she made the whole experience so easy and reassuring. She kept us updated regularly, sent plenty of pictures, and always let us know how he was doing. It was clear he was in great hands. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Shante was attentive, kind, and the best fit for my boy while I went on vacation. She sent pictures and made sure to let me know how little Almond was doing while away. And I will definitely be using her again. He was having the time of his life with her little kiddos!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in Apopka can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Apopka home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Apopka.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Apopka. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Apopka 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
