“Linda is great with my two boys. They love staying with her and always seem happy and healthy when I pick them up. I also appreciate her photos and videos of them throughout the stay.”
“Kevin and Gaby were absolutely amazing!!! This was my first time leaving my pup with a sitter through rover and there could not have been a more perfect choice!!! They sent me numerous daily updates and gave him all the attention in the world. He looked so happy and calm in all the update photos. They listened to all my worries about leaving my baby and constantly made me grateful to have entrusted them with him! They are both absolutely wonderful people and I will definitely use their services again! ?”
“Wonderful person, super loving and kind. This was the first time I left my dog with her, and I will definitely leave my dog with her again. She's super attentive, provides frequent updates, and keeps us informed about how everything is going. I loved it! Highly recommended!”
“Lena was such a pleasure. She treated Corvo with such care and love. I was very nervous since this was his first time being away from me but I immediately felt better seeing pictures and video of him while I was away. I would recommend Lena and would book her again!”
“5/5 Stars! Kallee was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Koda. They were incredibly reliable, sent great updates, and we came home to a very happy, relaxed pup. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“Terrie is fabulous! My dog is older and has some issues, but she loved my boy like he was her own. Her home is perfect for dogs, and she has an amazing fenced in yard for the pups to play. She sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing. I will totally be sending my pup to Terrie again, and while he is there, I will rest assured that he is in great hands living his best life.”
“I found myself in a last-minute, stressful situation due to a number of unexpected things life threw at me all at once and I needed a place for my two dogs to stay for what I thought was going to be a week. After doing as much research as possible in a very short window, I contacted Sarahi and Leandro and 12 hours later dropped them off as me and the family headed out of town. Several years ago my wife and I had a bad experience with a similar service where our dogs were left in a crate for over 10 hours at a time, so there was a lot of anxiety for my wife in particular about using the same type of service. After just a couple of days that anxiety was all but gone, and from drop-off to pick-up the communication was very consistent, both in response to any questions we had and in their daily updates containing both photos and videos. Just as the week we had booked was coming to an end, I unfortunately had to extend my travel for an additional week, which Sarahi and Leandro took completely in stride and happily accommodated, even though - just as the initial week - the request was made at the very last minute, was missing key details, and a definitive pick up date was still unknown. Yet again they happily accepted and extended, taking great care of Winnie & Colonel Caper. I could go on for an hour and I would leave 10 stars if I could. But mostly, I want to say than you to Sarahi & Leandro for not just being absolute professionals when it came to caring for our dogs, but also for helping me out when I really needed it without taking advantage of the situation for their own benefit (when many, if in their place, absolutely would have). I am sure there are a lot of great sitters on the app, but I can't imagine that any are better than these two.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Leo received during his 12-day stay. Leaving your dog for that long can be stressful, but we had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Leo was well cared for, loved, and treated like part of the family. We received updates, and it was clear that his happiness and well-being were a top priority. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy. We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Cristal was wonderful with Poppy. As soon as he arrived, Cristal welcomed him, and I know he felt at ease. There is always a little anxiety with leaving your fur baby with someone else, but Cristal made the experience so enjoyable. She kept me posted with pics and video! I will definitely have Cristal take care of Poppy again! Thank you ❤️”
“April and her husband took great care of my dog while I was away! This was the first time my dog has stayed with someone besides family and she had a blast! April is very good with sending updates and pictures which helped put me at ease while I was away!”
“Awesome pup caregiver!!! I’m so fortunate to have found Lisa to care for our elderly boxer girl MzDaisy. Lisa’s bio and other reviews are true. She’s very thorough and makes sure she follows the requests of the owner so that pups have the normalcy they’re used to at home, while being hosted. I almost want to keep Lisa all to myself, but sharing is caring. LOL. So, yes-she’s excellent!”
“Pricilla is just the best. I’m big on punctuality but I had an emergency and was late for my original drop time and she was so patient with me. Which I appreciated so much. As soon as I drop my baby off and we drove off I received a picture from her I was surprised. But it was reassuring to see that she was already settling in. Each day I received pictures and videos update to seeing my baby playing with other friends and having fun. It was never delayed when I ask about how she is doing. I would get a response from her with seconds. After day one away from her I was more missing her than worrying about if she was okay. Priscilla took extremely good care of my baby and I was elated with her professionalism and making my heart settle just to see her giving me update when and when I don’t ask for it. Thank you Priscilla for such an amazing care of Blossom 🌸 and I will definitely be seeing you soon.Thanks from Blossom and I. 🌸🌸🌸🌸”
“Ivanka was great with Leo and Penelope! Ivanka responded quickly with our request for dog sitting in her home and she kept in contact with us regarding our babies stay. Both Leo and Penelope look happy to be home and they also look satisfied after their stay with Ivanka and her two puppies. If you are looking for a dog sitter, look no further than Ivanka! She cared for Leo and Penelope as they were her own puppies. She is dependable and super sweet with our puppies. Thank you for caring for my two little ones! Ivanka is a 5/5 star doggie sitter!”
“Marie is extremely communicative and will treat your dog the way she treats her own. They go on long walks, get lots of running time and of course snuggles. I trust Marie with my girl more than anyone!”
“So grateful to have found Mackenzie! We had an amazing Rover when I first moved to Florida who no longer does it. I’ve tried three others since before finding Mackenzie and none of them were a fit. Mackenzie was wonderful and communicative! She sent photos of my boys and my smallest who can be grumpy and super protective went to her with no issue (a miracle). Best part, when I picked them up they weren’t barking like crazy trying to RUN out the house. They were calm and I felt at ease from the very beginning! I will be using her for every vacation! She’s a God send!”
“Nikhol took great care of our girl. Communication and pictures throughout the stay with updates on how she was adjusting. I felt like she really cared about her! We will definitely be using her again.”
“Daphne took great care of our furry girl while we were on vacation. She gave us updates with photos which we really appreciate. Our pup even made a new dog friend. Great experience overall!”
“Debra and Wendy are great. I rarely leave my senior furbaby alone for more than a couple hours so it makes it hard to be out and about or participate in things that come up last minute. Debra and her sister have consistently come through for me very last minute lately with kindness and prompt responses to allow me more time to take care of some people-things lol. I don’t trust my Diamond with everyone but I 100% do not hesitate to have her in their care. It’s obvious they love the pups and Diamond looks forward seeing them and spending time with her fur friends. I recommend them with no questions asked. 😊”

We absolutely loved having Carolina take care of Lila! She was amazing from start to finish and kept us updated with regular messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was incredibly friendly, caring, and communicative, and it was clear that Lila was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! We would 100% recommend Carolina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and wonderful to care for their pup. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️
Lenis and her son, Jose, took really good care of both of my dogs. One of them is a rescue who is very shy and they were very understanding, giving her the space she needed to be comfortable. Their dog Oliver is also very sweet and played very well with my miniature poodle. House is very clean and has a nice yard for the dogs. Will definitely book again!!

We have Boarded with Lisett many times because she gives Juniper the best of love! She treats her just as her own dogs to the point where Juniper seems excited when she gets to stay at her house! Juniper is a toy destroyer and even tho I try to prepare Lisette the best I can but she also provides some for her too. She keeps Junipers schedule and takes her on fun activities!!!
Alex & Natalya were fantastic! This was my first time taking a trip away from Remy and they eased every fear and worry I had about leaving. They were always sending updates and photos throughout the day and I never had any worry that he wasn’t getting the best care. I would 100% use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for their next pet sitter 😊
From our first meet, Tisha showed a caring demeanor towards our dog Leo. We had a great experience with her! She was reliable, caring and seemed to treat Leo like her own. Her communication which included photos and videos gave us a peace of mind. Upon pick up, Leo was happy and appeared well cared for. I will definitely use Tisha again if the need arises. I highly recommend her!
Kayla was such a great sitter during our stay at Disney and she kept in contact daily. Getting updates and cute pics of Kobe was the best. She also was very accommodating when I experienced some travel issues. I would recommend her to anyone and I’d definitely book again! I can tell Kobe really enjoyed his stay <3

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Forest City home-away-from-home, 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 Forest City.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Forest City 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 , 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 .
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.
