“Brittany was a quick to respond to my questions and was very accommodating on my last-minute request. Once I met her, I felt relieved I had decided to bring my Chico along and leave him with her for the day while I went to an appointment. He was obviously in good hands.”
“I made a last minute decision to have my pup go to doggy day care for the week while my other two dogs recovered from surgeries. Denys responded to my request quickly and was able to accommodate our times which I really didn't think anyone would do. She is a great person and my dog loves her and her whole family. My pup came home happy and tired every evening and she kept me updated throughout the stay. Denys did a great job keeping up with Furia's potty training, I think she may have actually gotten my pup to be better about going outside. I never worried about my dog and any time I did text I got a quick response with plenty of updates. I really enjoyed chatting with Denys, she is so sweet and I can tell she really loves what she does. I would absolutely recommend having her watch your pet, I know my pup had no shortage of attention over there and I really like that.”
“Mercedes did such a wonderful job with my puppy. I cannot thank her enough for being so flexible and accommodating for us on top of it being last minute! Got cute pictures of them snuggled up and he didnt want to leave!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Mia! She is highly communicative, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Mia had an incredible day and came home happy and tired—which, as every dog owner knows, means she had a great time! Sarah also went above and beyond by accepting not one, but TWO last-minute bookings for me, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that Sarah genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Mia was so comfortable and happy with her. We’re both very happy customers, and Mia is already excited to go back tomorrow! 🐾🐾🐾 Thank you, Sarah! We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional Rover sitter.”
“I liked everything. The dog seemed calm after I picked her up. Elyscia sent photos and responded to my requests and messages quickly. Her dog seemed very friendly.”
“Karina and her partner took care of Rocky while we attended Legoland for our daughters birthday.I am always terrified to leave my fur baby with anyone and her partner sent pictures and videos throughout his stay in which I appreciated.Thank you both for caring for Rocky.”

“We were so happy to find Priscilla. While we live in another part of Florida, we needed to board our pup while in the area where we were visiting with family and spending Thanksgiving Day at their house. My son's dog doesn't get along with ours, so it was wonderful to find someone who could care for him during our visit. Priscilla was so good with him and she sent us photos and a video of him running in her yard with the other dogs. He looked so happy to have this play time. We will definitely consider boarding him with Priscilla the next time we plan a visit to our kids.”
“She was fantastic! Buttercup felt very comfortable with her, I got Photo updates throughout the day, and I feel like it was the perfect fit for buttercup daycare! Highly recommend”
“Looks like my Daisy Mae is very happy! When I picked her up she looked really relaxed and wagging her tail, but she was barking and I think she was telling me why does she need to go home now! Lol she met new friends and that’s exciting and was well behaved. I brought her for day care before her week long stay and I see she is going to be fine. Alexander was amazing with her, sent pictures, and provided details on her day. He is professional and friendly. It is much appreciated.”
“Kristina was very flexible with our evolving schedule! Our golden retriever had a great time swimming in the pool and playing with dog! Will definitely book again!”
“Brenda, Dwain, their daughter, and their cutie crew of furry friends were SPECTACULAR! I'm incredibly grateful to have found them and very pleased with Wink's care. They provided photos and videos, and were incredibly kind and generous. They will absolutely be seeing Wink and I again!”
“Daisy recently had a very bad experience at a local franchised daycare. I wanted to find a more loving environment and smaller play group for her. I am so relieved to have found Rebecca. She is sweet, gentle, and made sure Daisy settled comfortably into a new space with her new friends. She updated me during the visit, and I'm confident Daisy will love days with Rebecca.”
About: We are a pet loving family! Our dog Sadie loves having new friends over to play with. My backyard is perfect for play time and my house is made to feel like your dog's second home. I work from home most days of the week. Our morning starts between 6-7 with a potty break and breakfast. Normally the dogs get to play outside at least 4 times throughout the day. Dinner is normally around 5-6. Last potty break is about 9pm. Since I work from home, this schedule can be adjusted to fit your dog's needs. Like people, all dogs have different needs and personalities. I am able to adapt to what your pup may need. My dog, Sadie, is crate trained. If your dog also likes their crate, please feel free to bring it. All dogs are fed separately to prevent any food conflicts.
“Ana was able to deliver once again an amazing sitter service. Our little Manu loves being with her. One additional detail - in one occasion we forgot to pack kibble and Ana was generous enough to provide it, rather than having us sending a delivery. I'm going back to NY wishing to find someone as good as her.”

Karina and her partner took care of Rocky while we attended Legoland for our daughters birthday.I am always terrified to leave my fur baby with anyone and her partner sent pictures and videos throughout his stay in which I appreciated.Thank you both for caring for Rocky.
We had such a great experience and couldn’t be happier! He was an excellent communicator from start to finish, always keeping us in the loop and making us feel completely at ease while we were away. We especially loved receiving the regular photo updates—it was so reassuring to see our dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s clear he genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup, which says everything. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and thoughtful to watch their dog!
Denys is very caring with Zoey. She sends us daily reports and is very honest with her feedback. I appreciate the pictures and updates. Zoey was having digestive issues this time around. Denys was patient, sent me the videos I requested, and communicated with me often answering all of my questions about Zoey’s well being. Zoey stays with Denys often. Zoey arrives to Denys’ house and walks in like it is her house without looking back. That gives me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Denys.
Christina was great with watching my Lucy! We did a daycare session before a longer boarding request to make sure that Lucy would be comfortable in the space. Christina is very communicative and willing to answer any and all questions that I have! Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!

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 Forest City 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,221 sitters in Forest City, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
