“Karley did a great job for us! She was great with Sadie right away. She gave us updates during the day and sent us pictures of Sadie so we could see how she was doing. We were very satisfied and we will be using her again!”
“Fiorella and her family were great! She responded when I needed someone to take extra care of my puppy at the last minute. I can tell by all the photos she sent throughout the day that Smoke was so happy to be there with her family and other pups. She was responsive and made sure to give me updates regarding his current stomach issue. She was so attentive and noticed a small detail about my puppy that I forgot to mention about him. I felt comfortable all day with him there with her. I will be a returning customer! Highly recommend!”

“I was very happy with Connie's flexibility. I need to drop my dog off pretty early, around 7am and that was no issue. My dog mixed with her 2 dogs easily. I will definitely book again. Security, safety and love. Can't beat that combination.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and hands-on knowledge from raising and training my two labs since they were puppies. I understand the energy and patience pups need, as well as the care and gentleness senior dogs require. Growing up around dogs has given me a natural sense for their needs, and I treat every pet like part of the family. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine! I work from home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I already care for two active dogs, so our schedule includes regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I’m used to keeping pets engaged, exercised, and comfortable all day long. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, fenced yard and lots of playtime with my two active labs. We go on daily walks and have plenty of toys for enrichment. I’m experienced with crate training and can provide a cozy crate if needed. Whether in my home or yours, I care for pets like family—making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m patient, reliable, and trained in basic obedience and senior dog care. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. Pet care fits perfectly into our family routine. My partner works from home and I’m always home we love spending time with animals, so your dog will have plenty of company, playtime, and affection throughout the day. There’s always someone here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and part of the family. I have a fenced yard and 1 friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We also make sure all interactions are gentle and supervised.
“Amazing as always! Lauren was great for a last minute day to ourselves and we felt much comfortable enjoying ourselves knowing Bear was having just as much fun with Lauren and River all day!”
“Katherine and her family were so amazing with our dog, Oscar! Oscar is super shy and anxious, but they made him so comfortable and were very patient with him! We’ll definitely be booking again :)”
“Our Tula doesn’t take to just anyone right away- but Bob and Keri had her feeling like a family member in short order! They are loving, detailed and excellent with communication to owners. We have already rebooked! She cuddled, walked, played and cuddled some more. These are loving, care-filled sitters!”
“Thank you Elena. I look forward to booking again. You made this a great experience in finding a care giver for our young daughter's beloved pet. Elena was prompt in her responses, actively inquired on our pet's needs, and even gave our pup a present when leaving!”
“Andressa & Alex where the best sitters I’ve had in a long time. Welcoming from the beginning of connection. You can tell they really love dogs. My dogs have never been so tired and happy to see me. I think Bear and Tigger have found new sitters. Thank you guys and thank you for all the photos. Barbara Richardson”

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 Lonesome 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 1,793 sitters in Fort Lonesome, 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.
