“Every year Angie pet sits Kairo for me! I trust her completely! Even when she moved homes, I still continued with her! He always comes back home so happy! She updates me and sends me pictures and videos all the time! Thank you Angie❤️!”
“It was Hunter's longest stay away from me, and I was worried, but Yaima sent me lots of pictures and messages to keep me updated. When I picked him up, he was happy and content - a true testament to Yaima's amazing care! 🙏Thank you so much! 🐾❤️”
“We couldn't be more pleased with Elena! She was professional, kind, and incredibly gentle with Rosey. Her responsiveness was top-notch, sending us daily photos and videos, which gave us such peace of mind. We've truly found Rosey a second home while we travel. Highly recommended, and we'll definitely be booking again and again. So grateful! Thank you so much!”
“Cindy & Santosh are the best, they love our dogs like they are their own. My senior dog requires a lot of care, attention, and medications & they make sure he is all taken care of and his special needs are cared for. My other dog (closely bonded chihuahua) generally doesn’t like people but to my surprise she follows Cindy around the house just like she does with me! I don’t feel too bad leaving her knowing she’s still happily claiming another human!”
“We can’t thank this loving family enough for taking such good care of our pup. They updated us the whole stay with amazing pictures and videos. Our pup made some new friends, got plenty of exercise and love. We will absolutely schedule a puppy sleep over with Matt & Nicole during any of our future get aways. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Ronin enjoyed getting to know you all. 💙”
“Cece is an absolute DOLL. I cannot express how caring she is for all animals! She has two amazing pups that treated my baby like one of the pack! She was super responsive and kept me updated with pics and videos the whole time! She even cleaned out my babies tear stains, gave him a bath and left him the cutest Easter basket! I will definitely be booking again - I can rest assured while traveling that my baby is safe and is being loved.”
“Chelsea spoiled our pup! He came home happy and well taken care of. She has adorable frenchies that got along well with ours and kept him entertained. We will definitely rebook in the future! Thanks Chelsea!”
“We had a great experience boarding our two Golden Retrievers with Garrett. He was very easy to work with and the dogs seemed to enjoy being there. We would certainly use him again.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I’m so glad I found Sabrina! She was amazing from start to finish. She sent me pictures every day, and my dog looked so happy—he was literally smiling in every photo! It made me feel so comfortable knowing he was in a loving home and being well taken care of. I couldn’t be happier and will definitely be booking with Sabrina again!”
“I couldn’t ask for the most perfect person to watch my Roman. Rom is a lot to deal with sometimes and requires lots of patience and she was that and more. Bri would send lots of updates and pictures during our time away from Roman and which was much appreciated!! She was very easy to communicate with as she well.”
“My dogs always love staying at Jorge's house. I know they will receive excellent care and they always have so much fun judging by the videos that he sends to me regularly during their stay. I highly recommend using Jorge for all your Rover needs.”
“Lina is such a wonderful sitter!! We are so lucky to have found her!! She kept our babies over a long weekend, and I think they were sad to come home. Lina took perfect care of them, making sure they got their eye drops and treats every day, and sent so many pictures and videos! I was so comfortable on vacation knowing they were safe and well cared for with Lina! We would trust her anytime to take care of our babies again!”
“Very friendly and accommodating! Looked after my frenchton for what was supposed to be one night that ended up being two as I had flight problems. They were very courteous and very good with Luke. Highly recommend!”

“I wouldn’t trust my dog with anyone else! My dog is older and can be kind of difficult. Sydney treated him like one of her own and was in constant communication. She put my mind at ease and sent lots of photos. I will definitely be a return customer”
“Daniel and Jessica were great with Bentley! I got a video or picture daily and Bentley was wore out when he got home! They were very kind and cared about Bentley. Definitely would rebook with them again in the future.”
“Tabitha was great! Our pup was clearly loved and taken good care of while we were on our 5-day vacation. The updates and photos Tabitha sent were a special touch. Thanks Tabitha! We'll be back!”
“Dzeni and Kathy were absolutely wonderful with Bailey! From the start, their communication was clear and consistent, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. They were very attentive to Bailey’s needs, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure she was comfortable and happy the whole time. It was clear that they treated her with genuine care and affection, just like family. We came home to a relaxed and well-cared-for pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, kind, and professional pet sitters!”

Sabrina is the best! Her communication is top tier and she knows how to handle my pups. I have one who is a bit anxious/nervous. She took her time with him and created an environment for him to feel comfortable and loved. I don’t have to worry when I leave my dogs with her. Book her!!

There are 3,065 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Dover. About 91% of Dover sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
