“I booked Daisy to watch my two girls, Juna and Aria, and I’m really glad I did. She was warm, attentive, and kept me in the loop with lots of great pictures and updates. When I picked them up, both dogs were happy and relaxed, which told me everything I needed to know about how well they were cared for. Daisy made the whole process easy and worry-free, and I truly appreciate the love she showed my pups. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“My baby Azora has been going to Vanessa for a couple of weeks now. In the beginning I was very nervous, but Vanessa and her family provided an immense amount of comfort and reassurance. Vanessa and Luke are two vital people in Azora’s life, and I am extremely grateful for her care over my 2 month puppy. I highly recommend selecting Vanessa as your pet sitter!”

“We hit the jackpot! I’m reluctant to tell you how amazing this experience was and what wonderful people they are because I selfishly want them all to myself. But I have to share that Fahriye and Daniel are the most amazing dog hosts and they spoiled us! In addition to outstanding care, they groomed my dog, Simon, washed his bed, baked him treats, and gave us a special surprise gift. Who does this?! They do! They sent photos, were so easy going and, most importantly, Simon was so excited to see them on the second day! He requires endless affection and attention which they didn’t seem to mind at all. I brought home a happy, CLEAN!, exercised, and well-cared for dog. I am so relieved and grateful to have found them ❤️🐾🐕🦺”
“Emiliano and Valeria are professional, caring, and wonderful with Willow. I especially appreciate their excellent communication, the pictures and quick responses from day one.”
About: I understand your pets are your babies and they need to be treated as such! I’m ready to do any task so matter how small or silly it may seem with my full heart and I can’t wait to meet everyone’s fur babies!! I also have extensive training and research in animal behavior and how to react to it and occasionally work at a doggy daycare. And I have grown up around animals and know how to handle reptiles, birds, rabbits, and other common pets. Pets are always welcome in my weekly routine! I’m a university student and I have classes 2 days during the week so I have plenty of time to take care of your babies! I also take care of the pets of my family and friends whenever they’re away and have boarded and does a home stay! I would approach the pet calmly using a calm voice and positive reinforcement to provide a loving relationship with them. I would also do everything I could to make them more comfortable, whether it be doing something silly that’s in their daily routine or give them extra special attention. I will always try my best to help them feel safe and taken care of!
“Colleen is amazing. She gives quality attention to each fur baby in her home and I feel like mine gets extra special care 😁. She sends daily updates and photos/videos of my dog, which I love. I am always reassured that my dog receives lots tender loving care in her home. I highly recommend her!”
“First day today with Rose! I am so happy, communication was fantastic and my pup CLEARLY HAD THE BEST DAY! He did not even act like he missed me when I picked him up he had so much fun! He was definitely well cared for!”
“This was my first time using the site and I decided to go with Bruce and it was the BEST decision!!! Bruce has a beautiful home and its SUPER clean, which was very important to me. His lawn in his back yard is just as beautiful...no dirt...all plush green grass!! Bruce explained everything during our meet-&-greet. Bruce was ready to receive my pup when we arrived and provided him lots of attention, cuddles, and love! Bruce sent pics of my pup it seemed like every hour and it was very comforting to me to get those pics and updates on how my pup was doing. He even makes sure to introduce the dogs to each other slowly and always with supervision to ensure each dog's safety. All the things mentioned was EXTREMELY important to me and I felt very confidant that my pup was going to get the BEST of care while I was away. I will definitely be using Bruce from here on out!!Thanks Bruce for being so AWESOME and Sir Spencer will be back for sure!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Christmas on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,938 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Christmas. 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 Christmas 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 1,938 sitters in Christmas, 86% 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.
