“Priya is just the sweetest! She takes such good care of my dog, so much that he doesn’t want to leave lol. She sends plenty of updates to brighten your day, is always responsive, and great to work with! I appreciate her so much!”
“If you want your animals in great hands, then book Carla. She is amazing with my dog Beau. Her property is nothing short of an animal paradise with huge yard and also goats and her own dogs which are very sweet. She is great with communication and sends me pictures and videos daily while caring for my dog. You know it’s a good sign when your dog gets excited just by pulling into Carla’s driveway. She’s great, I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had many dogs in my life and am 100% dogs. I spent many years volunteering with the labrador retriever rescue. I work from home 100% helping families with life insurance. Fenced yard & pool! I work from home full time. We have a couple walks a day, but have a fenced yard & in ground pool with a doodle layer 18 in deep. We’re fenced with a large goldendoodle gal that absolutely loves to play with other dogs! Dogs are allowed on furniture & allowed to exit the doggie door to play outside (if they know how)
About: I’ve been caring for animals from cats to dogs to fish and turtles since I was young. I love animals and can’t wait to ease your travel or emergency worries while you are away. I work from home and will follow your schedule to the best of my ability, so your pet will be looked after during the day! I work from home so I am available all day everyday typically. It’s so fun to learn each pets quirks and personalities. Pet care helps me get out and get my steps in. House (Day) Sitting: Since I have a fur baby and family of my own, I generally provide early morning-late evening services following your schedule. Of course, if your pet needs special attention, this can be accommodated for overnight care. Please disclose all indoor cameras. Boarding: For their safety and little piece of home, please bring your baby’s kennel/cage/carrier and something that smells like you along with food and water bowls.
“My wife and I were visiting the Space Coast and Cocoa Beach area. We needed care for our 2 pups so we could experience Kennedy Space Center and found Mia. She had 2 pups (golden doodles as well) of her own, a nice big fenced backyard and worked remotely, so she was home and attentive during their stay. Our boys were exhausted when we got home from their play adventure day! Mia was flexible with our schedule, provided a safe environment for our boys and is a very nice pet care providers/ person. Thank you Mia!”
“Mandy was so good with our puppy! She sent videos during his stay with her and made me feel even better about leaving him with her. Seems like he had a great time playing! Mandy was extremely kind and professional. Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Mazie had a great day with Debbie and her dogs. Debbie was so kind to help us out last minute so we could spend the day fishing. 🎣 We are so happy we found her on Rover and connected. We look forward to seeing you again, Debbie!”
About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who have been caring for pets for most of our lives. Between the two of us, we’ve had hands-on experience with dogs in every stage of life—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra care. We truly enjoy hosting pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their families are away. We pay close attention to routines, personalities, and comfort levels so each pet gets the care that fits them, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard with artificial turf, which means plenty of space for running, playing, and fresh air—without the mud and mess. Whether your pet loves active playtime or prefers lounging and quiet companionship, we’re happy to match their energy. We treat every pet like part of the family and understand how important trust and peace of mind are when you’re away. We’d love to care for your pet as if they were our own. Our schedules give us a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. One of us works days and the other works nights, which means there is often someone home or available to check in throughout the day. This allows us to accommodate a variety of needs, including frequent potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and medications. We’re happy to work with your pet’s routine and adjust as needed to help them feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. We promise to follow your safety preferences, using a leash when needed, securing doors and taking extra precaution at all times. Your pets safety will always be a top priority for us

About: I am a retired CVT with over 25 years of experience in small animals, emergency medicine, and teaching future veterinary technician students. I retired 5 years ago and began traveling. Both myself and my husband have been pet sitting full time all over the country. We are home in Florida for an extended amount of time and wanted to expand our services locally. I am comfortable giving medications. It is important to us to maintain a consistent stress-free experience for both the pet owner as well as your family member. I am retired so my schedule is open. I do provide pet sitting via another site so I tend to book up quickly from there. I prefer when pet sitting in clients homes that they provide me with their expectations. For cats I do prefer inside cats only because I don’t want to be responsible if your indoor/outdoor cat doesn’t come home.
“Shelly has a great set up at her home for dogs to freely play including a large screened patio and fenced backyard. Shelly is very accommodating and pleasant. Our dog had an enjoyable stay at doggie daycare over the weekend.”
About: I'm the family member everyone calls when they need a dogsitter. I've been around dogs my whole life & wouldn't have it any other way. I am currently unemployed and have an open schedule. I'm a mother of 2 kids so looking to make extra cash and still have an open schedule for my kids. My house has a fenced in yard and a HUGE screen patio. I can easily crate your dog when needed. I have plenty of play toys and space.
“We came to the area on vacation and needed a sitter for one of the days. When we arrived, we realized our pup wasn’t excited about hiking and Christine was able to take him for two days last minute. Christine, her husband and and their pup are awesome and I’d absolutely recommend booking with them!! Manny was so excited to be back for a second day and slept the rest of the evening when we picked him up ? We will definitely book them again if they’re available next time we’re in town.”

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 Cocoa 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 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 Meet & Greet .
