“We had a really good experience leaving our dog for the first time while the family was away for as 4 day vacation. Gail was really nice, and sent us a daily update along with pictures and videos. The dogs have plenty of space to move around, and they are taken care of.”
“Erick’s a great dog sitter. He communicated and asked questions to make sure my dog was taken care of well. Sent pictures and videos my dog playing with the other dogs and on walks. When I picked up my dog, he seemed like he had a great time. Overall easy and pleasant to work with too. I highly recommend.”
“I wish I could give Tony more than 5 stars. This was my first time using Rover and I feel very lucky I found him. Tony was super responsive, communicative, flexible and the most important thing: he took great care of Maui and Pepito. I could tell they were SO happy and they had a blast. Can’t wait to repeat. Forever grateful to him”
“Very nice, very caring, she took a great care of my Tequila. Her dog Romeo is so sweet and full of energy they played all day and took naps. Felicia is very flexible with the schedule also, had no problem accommodating me very early in the morning. I really recommend her.”
“Diana has taken care of Lucky multiple times, and I really appreciate her consistent care and attention. She’s reliable, kind, and I feel good knowing Lucky is in her hands. Thanks for always looking after him! 🐾 🐶”
“Jonathan was amazing with our two dogs. Very caring and genuinely happy to be watching them. He was also very flexible, had great communication and friendly. This was our first time using Rover boarding and we are very happy with the outcome.”
“This was my very first time on River and I was super anxious. Brittany was absolutely perfect from start to end. She really reassured me and was the best with my Oakley. I will definitely ask for her care again in the future. Thank you Brittany.”
“I Left my dog with Sylwia for over two weeks. She sent multiple pictures, my pup got along great with hers, and she was communicative the whole time. They were the best snuggle buddies, which is great for a cuddly and anxious pup like mine. Wonderful and super friendly sitter and I will happily return again in the future!! Would (and will) 100% recommend to anyone in the S. Florida area. Thank you, Sylwia!”
“Jenny was great, super communicative and accommodating when I arrived later for drop off then planned. My dog quickly felt comfortable with her and got cozy in her bed which is very appreciated as she always sleeps with me. I highly recommend her for your fur baby care.”
“Muchísimas gracias a Noraima por todo, ella es increíble!! Estuvo en comunicación constantemente. Tiene un patio en su casa perfecto para jugar y correr, mis bebés definitivamente disfrutaron sus vacaciones con ella🐾”
“Segunda vez que dejamos a Brutus con Tito y su mujer. Esta vez nada menos que 16 días (todas las vacaciones de Navidad). No puedo más que tener palabras de agradecimiento por haber cuidado y atendido tan bien a Brutus. Mejor imposible. Me enviaban a diario fotos y vídeos, en las que veía lo feliz y bien que estaba. Hasta he dudado de si Brutus querría volver conmigo 🤣 (es broma). Muchas gracias por todo! Repetiré siempre con ellos por la tranquilidad que me dan!! 100% Recomendables.”
“Great sitter, highly recommend! Left him with 2 golden doodles and he handled them great. Gave one of them a capsule every multiple times with no issue. Plenty of daily updates as well. Treated my dogs like his own.”
“Amy was by far the most wonderful pet sitter. She took excellent care of my fur babies. She sent me pictures and videos daily, which enabled me to have a nice relaxing vacation!”
“Mikayla was so excellent! First time having a sitter for my sweet babies and they really took a liking to her! My Guwop is a love bug and my Penny is a rescue who is still a bit afraid of humans. For my Penny to actually want to be touched by Mikayla really said it all! Penny is not the type to warm up so quickly but she did and I’m positive it was all because of the love and comfort she felt from Mikayla ❤️❤️ Her communication was on point she didn’t make me feel bad for annoying her either 😂 ! I was super worried more because of my sweet Penny but she assured me they were in good hands and didn’t disappoint.”
“Vanessa is a great sitter. My dog was safe and comfortable and I received regular photo and the cutest video updates. Her dog is very friendly as well. I recommend Vanessa.”

I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.
“Christin was great and gave daily updates with pictures of Roxy. She followed my instructions and had patience with my dog during to her being a picky eater. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Adriana was phenomenal! This was my first time using this app and she made it all feel so easy and effortless. It’s always difficult to leave my fur baby when I’m away, but her great communication and constant follow up reassured me that Maui was in great hands! I highly recommend her! Thanks Adriana!”

Marina is truly a gem! I was super anxious about leaving my dog with someone new for the first time, but she immediately put me at ease. She was so responsive and kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos throughout the stay. She has a gorgeous backyard, and her two daughters took care of my fur baby like she was their own. My dog had such a great time! I couldn’t recommend Marina enough. 🤍
Gail was beyond amazing!! She took the absolute best care of Corcho, and we could tell he was so happy and having the best time with her. She is such a loving and caring person! We received tons of updates and photos, and communication was amazing the entire time. We felt completely at ease knowing Corcho was in such great hands. We couldn’t recommend Gail enough and will definitely book with her again!!
I’m so grateful I found Idania! She has such a warm and genuine spirit. I had just moved to Miami and was honestly a little nervous about leaving Kylo with someone new, but literally the second she came outside, he ran right up to her like they had known each other for years. That immediately made me feel so much better. What makes me even more grateful is that this was SO last minute. My original sitter canceled on me at midnight the night before I was supposed to leave. I was panicking and sent out probably five requests on Rover. Idania responded, “I’d be happy to watch beautiful Kylo,” instead of just saying she was available, and something about that response immediately stood out to me. You could tell she genuinely loves dogs. She sent me pictures and updates while I was away, and Kylo looked so happy and comfortable. I could just tell he was in great hands. When I picked him up 10 days later, he was clean, smelling good, happy, and clearly had been so well taken care of. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially after being put in such a stressful situation at the last minute. I’m so grateful for Idania and would absolutely trust her with Kylo again. ❤️
During the weekend Sheldon spent with Cathie, he was very happy and comfortable. She treated him with love and kindness. She also sent us updates and photos daily, which made us feel reassured. I would recommend her to anyone needing this type of service for their pets.
This was Leo's first stay with Brittany, and everything went very smoothly. She was kind, communicative, and kept me updated with photos throughout his stay, which I really appreciated. Everything went without any issues, and I felt comfortable knowing Leo was in good hands.
Mimi had a great time with Olga and the family. Mimi was attended to and walked multiple times a day. Mimi interacted with other dogs and kids which was great! Received constant updates and videos/ photos which relieved us knowing she was in good hands for a few days. We would definitely recommend Olga and the family for the stay knowing your furry family member is taken care of while you’re away.
Our Cocoa had a fab time staying with Leo. He provided updates and photos everyday. We rescued Cocoa from the streets a few weeks before and required boarding before taking her back to the UK - Leo boarded her and he made sure that there was no halt in progress with her in terms of training and diet. She looked amazing when we picked her up and we could tell that she was well looked after with Leo.
I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Galyna took such great care of Snoopy while I was away and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Snoopy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her! 🐶💛
I appreciate how accommodating Anthony was, he worked with my schedule and took care of Milo for 3 days straight. Thank you so much Anthony for taking care of my puppy on such short notice. Im happy Milo was able to socialize with the other dogs as well. I would definitely book with you again if im in the area.
This is my second time booking with Liora and it was just as fantastic as the first. Liora is communicative, caring, and my pup is treated like family while staying with her. I’m truly grateful to have been connected with such a great sitter and will for sure continue to book her in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bal Harbour on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,402 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bal Harbour. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Bal Harbour sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Bal Harbour landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bal Harbour 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 Bal Harbour.
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 Bal Harbour 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.
