“Thank you Ana and her family for taking such good care of our baby. We had to leave our Golden Retriever for 8 days, much longer than we had ever been away from her before. Ana made us and our dog feel so comfortable and kept us updated with photos and videos daily. We will not hesitate to have Ana watch her again and recommend her to everyone we know. Thanks again.”

About: As a dedicated mom of two sweet Doodles, I treat every dog like family with endeless belly rubs, active play, and reliable daily care :).

As a mom to two sweet Doodle, my schedule naturally revolves around frequent breaks, active play, and constant companionship. My home is clean, fully fenced, and secure.

“We were nervous to leave Scout with anyone for a week, but as soon as we met and spoke with Vely, we knew he’d be in good hands. We really appreciated that Vely required vaccination records, and that she was careful to introduce Scout to one other dog at a time. She shared daily photos and videos with us of all the fun he was having in her big backyard as well as down time inside. He had a blast and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing he was safe and happy. Vely also gave him a bath and trimmed his nails the day before we picked him up (a service she offers) — she did a great job, so we came home with a clean, sweet-smelling dog. We would have no reservations about asking Vely to care for Scout again. She’s thoughtful, thorough, professional, and great with dogs! Thank you, Vely!”

We got daily updates and pics which was great and she's very careful about interactions with other pets which is great. Zuri loved having the space to roam, play fetch and find balls🥰. Thanks Amy for your great care. We'll be using you again.”

“Luz was awesome. She sent no less than three pictures of our dog every day while we were on vacation. Our dog requires medication three times daily and putting our trust in Luz to administer those doses worked out real well. Next time we need a dog sitter, you better believe we’ll reach out to her again.”

Riley watched our dog Asher for the weekend and we had a great experience. She was very quick to respond to messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Asher was well cared for and happy when we picked him up, and it was clear he was in good hands the whole time. We would definitely trust Riley to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.

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 Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies 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.
