“I highly recommend Ashlee to care for your love-pups. I reached out to Ashlee for doggie day care assistance for my two cocker spaniels. This was to be the first time for these two pups to be cared for by anyone other than myself and outside of their own home. Ashlee was extremely pleasant and professional. Ashlee put me at ease by answering my questions before I even asked them. Ashlee and her family have a very nice and secure home. I was quite comfortable leaving my love-pups in her hands. I will call upon Ashlee for future doggie day care and slumber parties for my two love-pups. Thank you so much Ashlee!”
About: I love all animals! But especially dogs! I used to foster and rescue when I lived in Las Vegas, otherwise i’ve had dogs and watched dogs for 30 years, they are my absolute favorite! I specialize with senior dogs, puppies, high energy, whatever it may be!! All animals should be living their best life and be in the best home! They deserve all the love!! I take a lot of pics and videos when I watch them! :) A lot of walks, sniffs, cuddles, toys, bones, and lots of couches and chairs and beds!! I also do home and pet watch in Miromar Lakes and Stoneybrook in Estero. Would love to watch your family member if you are away, you can’t enjoy your vacation unless you know your pet is in good hands!! I’m at home right now all the time studying and doing side jobs so whenever works! I’m available 24/7 days a week right now. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood in Stoneybrook in Estero, screened in lanai, lots of couches and chairs and dog beds all around! Big box of dog toys and bones to chew :)
About: What sets me apart is how quickly I build trust and comfort with animals. I take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs — whether that’s burning energy with structured play, working on positive-reinforcement training, or providing calm, steady care for older pups. I focus on creating a stress-free experience for both pets and owners with dependable communication and thoughtful updates. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it has always been a big part of my life. I’m retired from CCPS, and I’ve had dogs of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking since my early 20s, and now that I’m retired, I finally get to enjoy doing it full-time. My days are flexible, and caring for pets is something I truly love — not something I squeeze in. I tailor my care to what each client and pet needs. I can do drop-in visits at your home for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. If you prefer boarding, I can welcome your pet into my home where they’ll have a safe, relaxed space and plenty of attention. My goal is to provide whatever style of care works best for your pet’s routine and comfort.
About: My very first job was for a Pet Resort in Naples, Florida when I was 14yo. I would clean out their kennels, sweep, mop, feed them and give them their medications every morning, play with them all periodically and give them their dinner before closing up every day, I've always grown up having a family dog my entire life, so I can relate to wanting the best for your furry extended family members while you’re away traveling or handling business, I look forward to making your little hero’s feel safe and seen, cheers! I'm home with the dogs full time 7 days a week Every morning around 7am I let the dogs out, feed all the dogs separately then we play, walk around the yard. I take care of the chores around the house and yard thru out the day, we typically do dinner around 5:30-6pm. I'll keep you updated with a video, and or photos at least once a day. Your little heroes will be free range thru out the house and the fenced in yard with plenty of shade and water. We treat our dogs like family so they'll be chilling between the couches and our laps. So whether your little pup is playful and energetic with the zoomies, too cute and cuddly or all of the above they will more than well entertained and cared for.
“Erika did a wonderful job taking care of our Annie and sent pics and videos showing how much fun she was having playing with her family and family dog. Thank you Erika.”
“Xiao was great! We needed a place to leave our dog for the day while attending a family gathering near by and Xiao was fantastic! She sent lots of pictures throughout the day and we knew our Willow was being well cared for. We will use her again if we are ever back in the area.”
About: Experienced pet owner and lover with 8 years of volunteer experience. I am comfortable with energetic puppies, large breeds, senior pets, and administering medications. I provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry family members. Plus, I love taking pictures, so you'll get lots of happy photo updates while you're away! I am currently taking a break from my full-time career, my schedule is completely open. This allows for mid-day adventures, flexible potty breaks, and unlimited cuddles—your dog will literally never be alone. Your pet's safety is my top priority. My home is clean, safe, and fully pet-proofed. I have a secure environment and am vigilant about preventing escapes or accidents. To help them feel right at home, dogs are absolutely allowed on the furniture—couches and beds are welcome here! (Just let me know your rules at home so I can stay consistent).
About: I have been a passionate dog lover and caregiver since childhood, growing up around dogs and cats (Golden retrievers, terriers, papillons) . As a proud dog owner myself, I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when staying in a new environment. I offer a warm, attentive, and secure home where your dog will be treated like family. Whether it's daily playtime, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them extra affection, I ensure every guest dog feels happy and completely at home while you're away. I stick as closely as possible to your dog’s familiar home routine. A normal day features morning outdoor time, daily walks, fresh meals, and plenty of supervised playtime in a secure area. Between active hours, there's always a quiet, comfortable space indoors for naps, relaxation, and lots of affection. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard where your pup can play safely and enjoy outdoor time. I maintain a clean, comfortable, and secure home environment, following all your care instructions carefully and keeping you updated with regular photos and messages. With owner approval, I’m also happy to take guest dogs along on beach trips or family picnics for some extra adventure!

About: Growing up on a farm, I learned from a young age how to love and take care of animals. As a teenager, I was responsible for 5 dogs, 6 horses and countless barn kitties. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I am very patient, forgiving and treat all my animals as part of the family. Besides my amazing husband, our dog Cody is the love of my life. He is a 9 lb toothless chihuahua who enjoys sleeping in (under the covers of course) and plenty of sunshine. The cat distribution system has blessed us with 3 cats who we love and adore: Ludacris, Gucci Mane, and Cardi B. We my years of experience you can feel comfortable that you are leaving your baby in good hands. I work remotely and I am generally home all day. I have a small dog and 3 cats, so my routine is pretty centered around taking care of them. When boarding, I treat your pet as if they are a part of my family. I can cater to their normal schedule. I have plenty of space to separate from my animals if necessary while still giving everyone plenty of attention.
“Moving to a new area is always a big worry for me as I have a 16-year old dog. He has been in daycare from puppy on and there are times I need to be away and need daycare and/or boarding. Finding Jackie and Russ has been a blessing and a huge relief. They are wonderful, kind, easy to work with, answer quickly and my dog is safe, comfortable and happy in their home when I need their services. Thank you so much! An amazing find!”
“Meltem is a fanstastic dog sitter and took great care of our teenage poodle. He is full of energy but she handled it very professionally. She is a very friendly person and her home is super clean and nice. I would recommend her anytime and we love to use her services in the future”
“My mini golden-doodle, Rue, spent her first day with Morgan. Morgan was very good with communication and welcomed Rue into her home with open arms. I was very comfortable leaving her in Morgan's care. I will definitely be using her again for future care for Rue.”
“Lucy has a wonderful time with Alex and her pups!! Alex and her husband were both so sweet and I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in their care. Will definitely be seeing them again!”
“Pablo and Elaine have a carefully controlled dog pack with a range of moderate energies well suited for socializing other dogs. Although our dog was initially nervous when we brought her there, she fit in well with the pack by the time we returned to pick her up. We are extremely happy with their service and highly recommend them.”

Cassandra was awesome! She communicated so well and was always very quick to respond. This was my first time leaving my baby with someone while I was at work, and she made me feel completely comfortable. She kept me updated throughout the day with videos and tons of photos, which I really appreciated. Charlie was in great hands! We will definitely be booking with Cassandra again! 🐶❤️
I'm so fortunate to have such amazing dog sitters with Rover. Eric, my most recent dog sitter was absolutely wonderful. My dog, Howie was very happy staying with him and his little fur baby for over 5 hours. Can't say enough positive things about my experience. The pictures Eric sent me were very reassuring that my little man was well taken care of and having so much fun. Thank you Eric Sharon Firlit

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Estero is $38 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $50 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Estero. 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 Estero 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.
As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of FL. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
