“Shelley has been the best pet sitter. She has provided updates and photos throughout the stay and has taken amazing care of my pups. She is also extremely flexible with pickup and drop off times. Her setup is very secure and safe for the dogs in her care. I highly recommend her.”
“Sugar and Harley were taken great care of! We had an incident with Harley and they continued to accommodate and make sure both doggies were safe and had everything they needed. Definitely recommend.”
“Was wonderful with our puppy and even helped us out last minute. Overall a great experience and sent us lots of pictures. Will definitely use again when in the Orlando area!”
“Melissa was just the best! She took such great care of Molly. Great pictures and updates too. Melissa was so helpful and kind. Molly is looking forward to her next play date with Melissa’s adorable pups!”
“This was our first time using Rover and the first time that our little pup stayed with someone that wasn’t our daughter. We could not have asked for a better experience than what we had with Debbie. Thank you doesn’t adequately express our gratitude for the love and care that Debbie and her home provided. We will definitely use Debbie again and highly recommend her to other families. Thank you again Debbie!!!”
“Lori is professional, courteous and extremely responsive. I received pictures daily of activities and on goings with my dog. I have never boarded my 15 year old senior maltipoo before and Lori's care put me at ease while I was away. I love the service she offers of picking up and dropping off which allowed my to deal with the chaos I had to prior to helping a family member move to another state! I highly recommend her and already have her booked again real soon!”
“Susie was so great with Honey. I could tell Honey had a great time hanging out with her. She knows all about dogs, and is willing to share her knowledge. Id use her again in the future, for sure!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for pets is something I genuinely love! I’ve grown up around animals and have experience owning and caring for cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, and many other animals. I’ve also fostered pets and have hands-on farm experience, so I’m comfortable with animals of all different sizes, personalities, and needs! I absolutely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel happy, safe, loved, and spoiled while they’re in my care. Whether your pet wants to play, go for a walk, get lots of cuddles, or just relax by my side, I’m happy to give them all the attention they deserve. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in loving and caring hands. I would be so excited to meet your fur babies and give them the same love and attention I give my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work from home, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and frequent face-to-face time throughout the day! I’m able to give them lots of opportunities to go outside, stretch their legs, and play, rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, medications, walks, and any other care they’re used to at home. I also love taking dogs on evening walks and giving them plenty of playtime and cuddles throughout the day. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as close to normal as possible while you’re away, so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety is always my top priority! I have a fully fenced-in yard where your pet can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime, along with a quiet, safe neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. I also have a super friendly miniature poodle who loves making new friends and can keep your pet company if they enjoy having a furry friend around! Of course, I’m happy to keep pets separated if that’s what they’re most comfortable with. I also have a crate available and can crate your dog when needed or if that’s part of their normal routine at home. I’ll always follow your instructions and do whatever helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while they’re in my care!
“Amanda took care of our two dogs for us while we went on a cruise that departed from Port Canaveral. Her communication was excellent, and I could tell she and her family went above and beyond to make our pets feel at home during their stay. She sent me photos, gave me plenty of updates and made me feel completely at ease. I would highly recommend Amanda to you!!”
“Jolene was great! Provided us with updates of Mack with photos which puts a pet owners mind at ease especially since we were gone for 10 days. She has other dogs so he got to play and became a part of their family for the time he was there. He may not want to come back because he doesn’t have furry friends to play with just us now. He also got to be on the couch so he was super spoiled. Highly recommend her and her family for your dog and we will definitely.be using her again.”
“I'm so glad I was able to book with Christine! I had something come up last minute and I was worried about leaving my anxious baby with someone new. This was my first overnight Rover experience and Christine was wonderful! She kept me updated with pictures and videos on how my sweet girl was doing. My dog was happy when I picked her up! Thank you again for everything!”
“From the very first meet and great we felt so comfortable with Jillian. Such a warm, comfortable environment. She has such a soothing presence. Dakota took right to her. We got wonderful updates and pictures all weekend. Highly recommend and we will absolutely be back.”
“Very happy and satisfied with the care she gave my pet. I would recommend her to anyone whose is looking for a really good pet caregiver. I will use her services again in the near future.”
“Jonathan and Ally were such a good fit for my Aussie/Heeler, Kovu. I felt good seeing they had watched other high energy dogs, and while Kovu is super sweet, she is very timid at first. She settled right in, and I knew she felt safe and at home when they shared that she slept in bed with them. They have a fenced in turf area, and a separate potty area and plenty of fresh water out for the pups. From the first message, they responded so quick to my booking. Less than an hour, they agreed to watch her. When my flight was delayed and I had to push her drop off a bit later than anticipated, they were accommodating and quick to message me back, same with pickup as well when I decided to come earlier than my anticipated time. If I was local, I would 100% use them again and so appreciated my baby girl feeling so welcomed and safe in their home.”
“We needed some boarding for our 2 golden-doodles for a couple of nights while we were visiting the Coca Beach/Cape Canaveral/Merritt Island area. Mia had availability and checked all the boxes for us...worked from home, fenced back yard, and 2 of her own pups for playtime with our own. Mia was very flexiable and provided a safe, loving environment for Cooper and Murphy! Thank you very much Mia! As well to ROVER.COM. My wife and I have used this service several times when we travel for vacations or short trips and have had great positive experiences! Highly recommend Mia and Rover.com”
“We are so happy to have found Susan and Hadassah. This is our first time leaving our fur babies with not a family member. What we can say is Susan and Hadassah are now a part of our family. They treated our fur babies with the same kind of love and care as we do. Our fur babies were so happy all the time. Susan always kept us updated and sent us messages about them. We were at ease knowing that our fur babies were being taking care by a wonderful and caring person. Thank you so much Susan and Hadassah for being amazing. Duke and Bruce will 100% be back again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cape Canaveral
I was in Cape Canaveral and did a last minute request to Dezarea to watch my dog for the day so I could go to the Kennedy Space Center! She responded right away and was so welcoming and accommodating with a clean lovely home and her own dog who played with mine. That was my first Rover experience and I am now even more confident of using Rover and grateful to Dezarae for her care and attention!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cape Canaveral on Rover is $33.49 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 577 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cape Canaveral. 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 Cape Canaveral 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 Cape Canaveral 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 Cape Canaveral 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 Cape Canaveral.
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 Cape Canaveral 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.
