Brio had a wonderful time, she enjoyed having one-on-one attention and cuddles all day with Carol while Mum & Dad did ‘adult human’ things. We would highly recommend Carol to take care of anyones fur baby.

This is our new pup's second stay with Jessica and when we picked her up she seemed happy and tired. She obviously had a good time. Jessica is very flexible to work with and keeps us up to date on our dog's day.

About: Lily Kamila | Elite In-Home Pet Care Insured and CPR certified, Serving Parrish, Sarasota, Tampa, and St. Petersburg Usually minimum 4-day overnight stay | Discretion. Presence. Peace of mind. ⸻ When you’re traveling, your pets shouldn’t feel your absence. I will spend majority of the time at your home, as I work on my laptop. And you shouldn’t feel a moment of worry. As a lifelong dog and cat mom, I understand that our pets are family, and that’s exactly how I care for them. My clients are professionals, executives, and families who expect nothing short of excellence. They trust me because I’m present, precise, and protective of their home and their pets. I offer overnight in-home stays up to 3 weeks, and I’m also available for extended drop-ins or longer daytime stays where I bring my work with me. I work remotely, so your pet has loving company,not someone rushing in and out. Whether your pet needs consistency, medical care, or simply someone who understands that attention is not optional—I provide a soothing, stable presence in your absence. I specialize in: • Pets with separation anxiety or medical conditions • High-touch routines and special diets • Full-time, in-home companionship (24/7 available by special request, additional rates apply) • Clients with second homes or frequent travel schedules • Multi-pet households requiring tailored care I also offer: Mail collection, plant care, trash day handling, and other trusted-home tasks—so everything runs smoothly while you’re away. I am a non-smoker, rarely drink, and treat your home with white-glove care. I’m punctual, discreet, organized, and deeply respectful of your expectations. When I say I’ll be there—I am. If your pets are your family, and your peace of mind is non-negotiable, I’d love to support you. Let’s make sure your next trip feels as calm for them… as it does for you. I am working from home, so my schedule is flexible. Tampa, St Pete and Sarasota usually I have 4 days minimum stay. I can stay up to 3 weeks at a time. Part of my work are local networking events; I usually go to the gym daily. I rarely leave the house for longer than 4 hours at a time and only when I know that the owners are good with it. Sometimes I have pet parents that require me to stay 24/7 with their pets without ability to leave, usually because of serious anxiety or other medical reasons. That is also possible, but the rate changes to 300 per overnight stay (350 holiday). Sometimes I am available for drop ins to give your baby/ies food, fresh water and let them out in the yard. I am also available for longer visits if that is what you would prefer, as I can take my laptop and work from your house. I also offer complimentary mail pick up as well as trash on collection days, watering your flowers (please have detailed info). I am a no smoker, and I don’t drink much at all, only when socializing out for dinner. I’m organized, clean and timely. I never invite anyone to your house. When I say I will show up, expect me there. I honor my word. When your fur baby is in my house I will give them as much attention and love as I provide for my own babies. I have a fenced back yard, no pond.. CPR certified. Thank you for your consideration!

Joan was absolutely wonderful with our dog during daycare! She provided frequent updates throughout the day, including photos and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Communication was excellent from start to finish, very responsive, positive, and clearly experienced with dogs. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious Joan created a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment in her home. We really appreciated the attention, affection, and care she gave throughout the day. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring doggy daycare!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. In addition to being a dedicated dog owner, I’ve spent time pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, as well as fostering dogs in need of a safe and loving environment. These experiences have taught me how important it is to understand each dog’s unique personality, routine, and comfort level. As the owner of a friendly Golden Retriever, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I strive to make every dog feel like part of the family while they’re with me. Whether your pup loves playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing and getting plenty of attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to provide reliable, personalized care and give pet parents peace of mind through regular updates, photos, and open communication. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated with the same love and care I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is already a big part of my life. I work mornings as a baker and am typically home by late morning or early afternoon, which allows me plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding schedules, and one-on-one attention. My own Golden Retriever keeps me active, so daily exercise and enrichment are already part of my routine. I strive to provide a structured, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. Whether your pet prefers active play or a quiet place to unwind, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, pet-friendly home where dogs are supervised, treated with kindness, and cared for according to their individual needs and routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, exercise requirements, personality, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure while away from home. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I focus on creating a calm, welcoming environment and maintaining open communication with pet parents. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay.

About: I've taken care of dogs of many different breeds since i was 15. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and watch their pets. I've trained 2 puppies to be house trained including my dog I own now. I am an avid animal lover and I'm currently a stay at home mom and have lots of free time to board/take care of your dog(s) or cat(s). I love dog walking & giving your pets the most attention and love they deserve! I will feed, walk & play with your pet whether its in my home or yours. I have a decent size yard to allow your dog to run around with my very friendly dog to keep them company! I can also keep them crated if you prefer but have dog beds for your pet to cozy up and feel at home in my home.

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 15. She’s now 11 years old and a healthy pup. I was a certified vet assistant a few years back but could not handle the emotional pain of watching dogs pass in the medical field. I still love dogs and cats and enjoy caring for them. I work full time overnight so I am able to spend daytime with your pet! Tuesday and Wednesday are my usual days off. I can typically spend 6-8 hours with your pet before I leave for work at 9:30pm. My pets are kept indoors and on our screened patio. They keep a strict routine and enjoy sunbathing on the patio. It’s a relatively new home so the screening is strong and has never been broken. We have two litter robots and my home is always in clean condition.

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, which truly brings me immense joy. Whether it's spending quality time with them, delivering litters, administering medicine, or giving baths, I'm well-versed in providing the best care. At home, our fun and lively household includes a 3-year-old female labradoodle mix and two cats who mainly keep to themselves. I'm well-prepared to offer a loving and enriching environment for your fur babies too! I'm currently a stay at home mom with a passion for staying busy and getting outdoors. I love filling my days with activities, and playing with your pups will be a genuine pleasure for me. Whether it's a game of fetch in the yard or a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, I thrive on ensuring pets are happy, active, and well cared for. My flexible schedule means I'm available any time, for as long as needed, to give your furry friends the attention and love they deserve.**We do offer a discount on stays longer than 2 weeks! ** I have a spacious, fenced yard where your pet can play and explore freely. We never leave the doggies unattended in the back yard. My friendly 4 year old labradoodle loves having playmates and will keep your pet entertained with plenty of fun and exercise. For pets who need some quiet time or separation, I have a separate room for that too. I do have a few kennels available if your doggie prefers to sleep in one or if there are medical or safety reasons for one.

Amy and her daughters were so great with our energetic puppy!! She got all her energy out in the few hours they were together. They went to the dog park, and let our puppy go to town in their pool (which is her happy place)!! Will 200% be scheduling a bunch more play dates!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Fort Hamer

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Fort Hamer on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 2,019 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Fort Hamer. 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 Fort Hamer 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 2,019 sitters in Fort Hamer, 85% 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.
