“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!”
“A true blessing! I could not recommend a sitter more than Carie!!! The whole trip she sent so many photos and updates of all the fun Nugget had while I was away. Nugget isn't able to see well/ walk much, but Carie and her wonderful son put him in a bike trailer and stroller and let him go see so much. I think he had more fun than I did! A++, If you are looking for someone to watch your baby pet then 100% get Carie.”
“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!”
“Carl and Linda were absolutely wonderful pet sitters! They took exceptional care of my dog, Ginger, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was that they only care for one dog at a time, so I knew Ginger was getting their full attention in a calm, stress-free environment. They sent regular updates and photos throughout my trip, which meant so much to me and reassured me that Ginger was happy, comfortable, and being well loved. It was obvious they genuinely cared for her and treated her like one of their own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Carl and Linda to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Ginger!”
“Debbie took good care of Mazie, our fur baby, during our overnight getaway. Always very attentive and caring; she keeps us well informed about Mazie’s behavior and activities.”
“Paul was excellent with my yellow lab. Lots of pictures, walks, belly rubs, and you can tell he really cares about animals. My dog settled in quickly and looking forward to our next stay”
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!
“Can we give 10 stars?? Lori and Matt are truly pupper peoples. We feel blessed to have found them. Honey (their pupper), Lori and Matt made us all feel welcome and cared for. We received an update and pupper pic each morning and evening. Jazzy had only been with a sitter one other time and a after a week when we picked her up she was completely at ease. We will definitely rebook with Lori M in the future. SUPER STAR SITTER!!”
“We boarded our dog Sandy with Christine for the first time over the weekend. It was a great experience. Christine was very communicative and flexible and we felt completely comfortable with leaving Sandy in her care. She sent pictures while we were gone and gave us a "report card" detailing how Sandy did when we picked her up. We will definitely plan to use Christine again in the future!”
“Andrea is absolutely amazing! She accommodated our last minute get away and was super flexible with our time and delays. Peanut loves to go stay for her doggie vaca. Thank you for always taking such great care of our fur baby.”
“Cameron was absolutely amazing! She worked around our weird schedule and was very accommodating. Our sweet little Rey came back as happy as ever I know she treated her as if she was her own”
About: I had my chihuahua for 17 yrs & he was more than a pet to me. I will care for yours the same. Thank you I am a hairstylist who makes my own schedule so I am available & flexible with my time and hours if given proper notice. Thank you! I Can crate your pets if needed. I live across from the beach if they like walks. I will always use a leash and send pictures for you so you don’t miss them to much 😄
“Jemma made us feel very welcome on our first visit. Dora, a keen water loving golden retriever enjoyed her stay with the family especially the visit to the beach. This was the first time she had been away from home and Jemma kindly updated me with plenty of videos and photos. Would highly recommend Jemma and her family and I have already arranged two further visits. Thanks again Jemma.”
“Darlene took great care of Kimba. Took just a short time to get comfortable with her and considered himself at home. Will definitely look to use her again.”
“Amazing amazing amazing!!! We will be re booking everytime with Carla! My dog had the best time and enjoyed every second of his visit! I am so thankful to find a loving and kind family to watch our boy!”
“Ichly was the ABSOLUTE BEST! Right away you can tell she cares for your pet like it’s her own! She gave us daily updates and sent so many fun and cute videos/pics of the things they did together. I wholeheartedly trust her with my pets and would recommend her time and time again! Thank you Ichly!!!!”
“Lisa did a great job with our dog Quinn. Kept me updated on how he was doing and had a nice yard where he could play with other dogs. I will definitely use Lisa's service again.✌??”
“Victoria was great! She was super helpful and flexible when we needed a last minute sitter for our boy Blue. He was well taken care of and had lots of fun. Victoria is super responsive and made our dog feel at home.”
“Hannah and Aaron were great!!! 5 stars for sure. Treated our guy as their own. Communicated well and sent us pictures throughout. Will absolutely book again with them without hesitation.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cocoa Beach
This was the first time we have left our Irish doodle with anyone besides family so we were a little nervous but Melissa and her family did such a wonderful job with our girl! She communicated well, answered all our questions, and sent lots of pictures. For that, we are so grateful! Macie returned to us happy and we could tell she had the best time there. Thank you Melissa and Uncle Sean for taking such good care of her!
Casey looked out for me on short notice over Easter weekend. I was new to the app and traveling on the road. From the minute, we arrived until we picked him up the next day I can’t imagine anyone looking out for my dog in a better way. The outdoor area for the dogs to get loose was beautiful. The grounds were immaculate. Casey couldn’t have been friendlier. I even got a bonus beach dog walk. Thank you for taking care of our dog!!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Cocoa Beach can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cocoa Beach 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 Cocoa Beach.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cocoa Beach. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Cocoa Beach 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
