“Our miniature dachshund "Monty" went to Olga for daycare a couple of times. He liked her very much and was well cared for by Olga and her family. Unfortunately we aren't able to book her anymore cause we just moved. We wish Olga and her family the very best.”
“Charlie awas very responsive, and accommodating. His wife took Halo for a walk as soon as we arrived. Charlie sent pictures and updates on Halo. I would definitely recommend them.”
“Fantastic dog care Very impressed with how Janette handles dogs It was our first time and Griffin was relaxed and peaceful when I picked him up, which is unusual using a first time sitter I highly recommend her, but not so much that I can’t find space to use her again!!! 5+ stars”
“First time using ROVER and Kym as doggie day care. Experience was FANTASTIC!!! Easy to initiate ROVER and locate a dog care for your needs. Kym and hubby are excellent with your pets. Will definitely use them again and highly recommend them to others.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a natural connection to pets of all kinds. I grew up with Yorkies and cats, and today I share my home with two retired rescue greyhounds. I’ve also spent time around large breeds like English Mastiffs, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I bring a calm, patient energy that helps pets feel safe and comfortable—whether they’re shy, senior, or full of puppy energy. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease while you’re away, and I’m fully committed to creating that sense of home and routine for them. From administering medications to taking gentle walks or simply being a warm presence, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals started at a very young age—I even worked at a veterinary hospital at age 14 as a dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for and understanding pets. That early passion has only grown stronger over the years. Pet care is now a natural part of my daily life. I start and end each day with walks and quality time with my two retired greyhounds, so caring for animals is woven into my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I genuinely enjoy every part of it. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need—whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Making animals feel loved and secure is something I take pride in, and it never feels like a task—it’s something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, and any special needs like medication or extra quiet time. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy and consistent, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I take the time to get to know their personality and provide calm companionship, play, and affection based on what they enjoy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with soft spaces to relax, lots of love, and a routine that helps reduce stress. Whether they need extra snuggles, slow-paced walks, or a little patience, I meet them where they are—physically and emotionally.
About: Me encantan los animales y disfruto cuidarlos con amor y dedicación. Siempre procuro que reciban atención, cariño y un trato seguro experiencia I work at home so I am avalaible to watch them and be aware of them, I can make sure to take care of them the best way. I Have a huge backyard thats fenced, I have enough space to place mini houses for the dogs and for them to have their own space and I have currently no pets so It would be a safe enviroment for dogs who do not enjoy being around other dogs
“Thank you Betsy! Last minute booking and very accommodating for me. Betsy is lovely and highly recommend! We were late picking Zoey up due to traffic congestion. Suggest to newbies to ck traffic for timing. See you next week!”
“I believe our boys have found their new best friend! We have a couple of rescues and one of them is high energy, high anxiety. We really needed someone who could help him become more comfortable around other dogs—needed lots of patience! Tara is an answer to a prayer! We had two meet and greets with her dog, and we just picked them up from their first day of daycare. They did great and we are so happy to recommend Tara!”
“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for dogs and cats since I was a kid — so pets have always been a huge part of my life. Honestly, I'm at my best when I'm among animals. 🐾 I've run a small rescue shelter for stray animals, personally funding all of its operations out of my own pocket — from caregiver salaries to food and medications. As a medical doctor, I was also able to personally administer medications and vaccines to the animals under my care, strictly following the vet's recommendations. That hands-on experience means I know how to spot when something's off, keep animals calm and comfortable, and give them the attention they truly deserve. Whether your pup needs a good walk and some playtime or your cat just needs a calm, caring presence while you're away — I've got them covered. I treat every pet like my own, and I'd love to do the same for yours! 🐶🐱 I am currently available for dog walks and boarding dogs or cats as I work as a freelancer. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and I am interested in providing care while getting some physical exercise alongside. For boarding pets, I have a condo where your pet is more than welcome. We can do walks in my gated community. A dog park is across the street from my community if your dog loves running.
“Thank you Audrey and Carson!! I know Mia had the best day (she’s currently out cold on the couch) It was a super last minute reservation and they were more than accommodating and answered very quickly. Thank you too!”
About: Hello! My name is Diane Kelly and I would love to care for your pet. I live in Palmetto, Fl. I would welcome traveling to your home to walk your dog, feed them, give medications if necessary and dog or cat sit overnight. I also would love to care for your cat or cats! I am very active and enjoy walking. Currently, I have a very flexible schedule. For walks, I prefer not to drive more than 20-25 minutes. For overnight sitting, I will drive further. If you are looking for a responsible caregiver for your animal, I would love to help. About this sitter: I would love to help you take care of your pets! I have had a great deal of experience caring for pets. I have volunteered at shelters; have walked, boarded and cared for dogs for many years; founded New England's first Cat Cafe; have veterinarian ultrasound scanning experience and expertise; and have worked on a very large, private animal rescue. I am a very active lady who loves to walk and will provide your dog with plenty of exercise if you like. I would be happy to meet with you and your dog, or cat before you hire me to give you assurance that your special friends will be loved and pampered. I provide daily photos of any pets I housesit, or for any new clients to assure you that your pet is being properly cared for. I have been an animal lover all of my life. But, I have cared for many cats, dogs, horses, bunnies, chickens and roosters, and even a pig called Bulldozer. I have experience with administering medications, orally and subcutaneously. Currently I am working for myself only and have a fair amount of time. Once I commit to care for your fur baby, you can trust me to take excellent care of them. I will care for your pets just as you ask me to. I provide videos and photos to assure your pets are in great care while they are in my care.

Allison and Janette were awesome to work with- super accommodating and understanding when we were a bit late picking up my pup due to traffic. Stanley had a blast with their pups and their home was lovely. Stanley slept very well after his day at their place. I highly recommend this sitter.

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 pick-up to match your Bradenton commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
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.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
