About: I'm a stay-at-home mom with a big love for animals and enjoy caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes! I love getting to know each dog's unique personality and strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and at home while you're away. I'm home most of the day so I can tend to your pup however they need. I will prioritize their routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I will be sure to care for your pet as if they're my own! We live in a safe, calm and quiet area with a lot of space for walks and a fenced doggy park for run and play.
About: As a devoted pet owner to my beloved Julie,I have gained invaluable experience in providing exceptional care and nurturing for animals. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the responsibilities and joys that come with being a pet parent. I’m available to take care of your pet in my home Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 7 PM, you need overnight stays: I offer overnight stays for pets that require 24. At my home, the safety and well-being of your furry friends are my top priorities. I understand that leaving your pets in someone else's care requires trust and assurance, which is why I have taken several measures to create a secure and comfortable environment. My home is equipped with a fully fenced backyard, providing a safe and controlled space for supervised playtime and exercise. This ensures that your pets can enjoy the outdoors while remaining within a secure boundary. To further enhance safety, I have installed cameras throughout my home, including the backyard. These cameras allow me to monitor your pets' activities and ensure their well-being at all times. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pets are under constant supervision, even when I'm not physically present in the same room.

“Very convenient and easy to accommodate dogs instantly felt comfortable and when I picked them up facing very happy, also made the dogs would recommend her last minute plans or any plans.”
“Janet was absolutely wonderful. Truly a dog lover at heart. Roxy was so comfortable there with the other “friends,” and Janet was excellent at communicating with me. I will most certainly be using her again in the future :)”
“My boys had such a blast while they were there, I could tell they were tired when I picked them up, and they were already trying to go back in when we were leaving!! It’s always so hard to find a sitter who sends you thoughtful updates and cute pictures, but I am so happy with how their visit went. Thank you so much to Qian and her family for taking care of our babies!!”

About: Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has become one of my favorite parts of life. I grew up around pets with my corgi and my cat. I have spent years helping friends, family, and neighbors with their dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, and I always take the time to learn what makes each one feel safe, happy, and understood. I enjoy getting outside for walks, playtime, and sunshine, and I’m just as happy curling up with a quieter pet who prefers soft company. Whether your pet needs long walks, gentle care, or simply someone patient and trustworthy while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I’d give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I work as a pharmacy technician on Monday and Wednesday from 5pm-9pm. Besides those times I’m very open and able to spend plenty of time caring for pets throughout the week. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routines exactly. I keep your space tidy, check doors and gates, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“I love Patricia set up, she is very good with the dogs. Her home is perfect. Her backyard her whole set up and how detailed she is with. Really taking care of them. I won’t take my dog anywhere else. Highly recommend Patricia.”
“Joann is AMAZING!!! I am so so very happy I left my Mia with her. As a first time mom of a fur-baby, I’m still learning. Joann has been great with easing my concerns and providing me suggestions for Mia. We had a great “meet and greet” where I got to meet her, her mom and her little beagle. The family is lovely and welcoming! Joann answered all my questions, and she was so understanding when I had to cancel due to inclement weather. When I rescheduled and she watched my little Mia, she communicated with me and kept me informed. She sent me multiple pics during the stay. I felt so comfortable leaving my Mia with her. I absolutely will continue to book with Joann. In fact I’ve already scheduled an over night stay with her. I recommend Joann all the way!! (Thank you Joann- from Mia and Tasha 😊)”

About: Hi! I’m Kelby, a lifelong animal lover who grew up in Montana surrounded by all kinds of animals. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and I truly treat every pup like my own. With over 10 years of experience caring for friends’ and family’s dogs, and having two dogs of my own, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’m here to provide safe, loving, and reliable care while you’re away. I also work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day! I have lots of time to spend with the dogs! I also have a big fenced yard! I have 2 mini Aussies who constantly want to play outside so I have plenty experience with high energy dogs! I can switch up my care to the pets specific needs. I love to see happy dogs so I will do whatever they need for them to be happy.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
About: Hi! I'm Jade, and I'd love to care for your pet like they're one of my own. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I share my home with my sweet dog, Zoey, and three cats, so I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away. I work for myself from home, so I'm home throughout the day and able to give dogs plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and supervision. My husband and our 13 year old son also live here, so ours is a family home. If your dog is uncomfortable around men or children, just let me know beforehand so we can determine whether we'd be a good fit. Your pet's comfort and safety always come first. I only accept dog boarding and daycare, as it allows me to provide a calm, low-stress environment. I intentionally keep things personal so your dog isn't just another booking - they'll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddle time (if they're into that!) In addition to dog boarding and daycare, I also offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During walks and drop-ins, I can provide exercise, potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, affection, and care based on your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also send photo updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I’m especially happy to provide cat care through drop-in visits. I’ll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and companionship while respecting your cat’s personality and comfort level. Whether they want constant attention or prefer to observe me suspiciously from across the room, I’m happy to follow their lead. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I'm mostly flexible with my schedule and can accommodate bookings with advanced notice. I recommend reaching out ahead of time so I can make sure your pet gets my full attention and care. My home is a calm, pet-friendly environment where dogs receive attentive care, structure, and lots of affection. I offer in-home boarding and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and included in our daily routine. My cats and dog are both dog-friendly but my cats prefer no other cats. I accept bookings, preferably with advanced notice so I can give each pet my full attention.
“Haley was awesome..... she was ready and waiting for me when I dropped off the dogs and picked them up. She gave me all kinds of feedback on the dogs and it looks like they got PLENTY of exercise... the pictures and videos were great! My dogs are going back to her this evening and through the weekend and I'm very they will be with someone that I trust and know she will take care of my pups.”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve taken care my sister’s dog, my cousin’s puppy, my friend’s chickens, and my friend’s dog too, over the years. I recently decided to give the Rover community a chance. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have one fur baby of my own - a brown pit mix who is full of energy and curiosity! I currently have a lot of free time on my hands, which will allow me to dedicate all the time necessary to your lifelong companions. I am available for drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I’m a reliable, caring dog walker who’ll treat your pup like family. When in your home, I would take your fur baby for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable. I also provide video and picture updates of your baby’s day.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carrollwood
We had a great experience with Joy’ stay in Patricia’s house. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was smooth and thoughtful, and it was clear that the environment was well set up for the dogs’ comfort and safety. She was very communicative throughout the day and sent us updates, photos, and videos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind as first-time daycare users. We could see that Joy was being well cared for and enjoying her time with the other dogs. We really appreciated the care, professionalism, and communication. We would definitely trust her with Joy again and would not hesitate to book with her in the future.
What an awesome experience I have had with Justine! She was super sweet and took both of my girls together without an issue. She provided me with frequent updates and was very accommodating when we were late for pickup. I am happy to have found her and will definitely make her my official dog sitter from now on!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Carrollwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Carrollwood on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,780 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Carrollwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Carrollwood 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,780 sitters in Carrollwood, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
