“Kelsie and her husband took great care of our dog Oliver! We received daily pictures that brightened our day while we were out of town. She responded quickly to every question I had and made us feel comfortable when dropping off. I would for sure feel more than comfortable leaving him again. Oliver loved playing in their big yard while he was there and loved playing fetch!! Thank you!!”
“Jerry and Sharon took such good care of my 15 year old Yorkie/poo. Jerry sent pictures and updates daily. I booked a second stay and Teddy was eager to get into their house. That tells me that he was happy there. I also appreciate that Jerry only has one or two dogs at a time. I highly recommend him.”
“LuLu had a blast with Claudia and her family!! Claudia sent me photos throughout the whole stay to let me know how LuLu was doing. Claudia is so sweet and communicative throughout the whole stay! I really felt at ease with LuLu there!!!! LuLu will def. Be staying with Claudia again!! ❤️”
“We can't thank Maria enough for her kindness and flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request for Pluto's care. From the moment we connected, she was beyond wonderful—thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated throughout the entire reservation with pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. Pluto was clearly happy and well cared for! On top of that, Maria has the most gentle giant of a dog, who made Pluto feel right at home. The experience was seamless, and we truly appreciate her warmth and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“Randy & Karen did a FANTASTIC job with our Franki (Pug) for the 11 days! Kept us updated with pictures. Would definitely recommend him and will be using him again on our next adventure.”
“This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. Tracy was great and my dog Guinness had a great time. Very attentive to his needs. Highly recommended.”
About: I have been caring for pets of family and friends since childhood, and over time it naturally became a passion. I have experience with cats, large and small dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and currently I have a rabbit of my own. I am also an exotic pet lover. I have always researched and studied a lot about animal care and health, I like to go beyond the basics to make sure I can provide the best care for my pets. One of my biggest challenges (and achievements) was training my rabbit at home <3 I have always been very attentive with my pets’ health, I even had a personal veterinarian for all of them, including routine check-ups for my hamster haha. For me it is really easy to have a connection with animals and quickly build trust with them, which helps me understand their needs and behaviors. I truly hope to become a veterinarian in the future and continue dedicating my life to animal care. I believe that any living being that is dependent and innocent deserves the highest level of care, love, and protection possible. I currently work part-time, but due to the low season I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to adapt easily to each pet’s needs and provide consistent, loving care throughout the day. I live in a gated community, in a apartment with a lot of space. The condominium offers a dedicated dog park with a fenced area where dogs can safely run and play, as well as walking trails for daily exercise. If needed, I can also share photos of the environment so you can feel fully confident and comfortable about where your pet will be staying <3
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and current pet parent to a 9-year-old black Labrador retriever and a 2-year-old cat, both incredibly friendly and well-socialized with other animals. Since I work remotely and am home most of the day, your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches — they’ll get consistent attention, company, and care throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. Having a senior dog myself means I understand the extra care, patience, and routine that older pets often need, while my cat keeps me well-practiced with feline personalities too. Your pet will have their own private room in my townhouse, so they’ll have a comfortable, quiet space to settle into if they need a break from the action. Because I’m home so much, I’m able to offer multiple walks throughout the day, so active dogs will get plenty of exercise and bathroom breaks on a consistent schedule. I’m attentive to feeding routines, medication needs, and any specific quirks your pet has — just let me know what works best for them. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m available every single day, including weekdays and weekends, for both walks and boarding. Since I’m home consistently, your pet will get regular attention, playtime, and walks throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. I have a spacious two-story townhouse with plenty of room for pets to roam and stay active indoors. Your pet will have their own private room for a quiet, comfortable retreat. I’m close to two dog parks for extra exercise and socialization, and I’m happy to walk dogs every 3 hours if needed to keep them comfortable and on schedule.
“Zoey absolutely loved Celea and her pet wonderland. Celea obviously loves the dogs she takes care of. She sent us pictures and videos throughout Zoey’s stay. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Destini kept me informed every day about my precious baby. She was very responsive and flexible about drop off and pick up times. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my senior dog! <3”
“We had a wonderful experience with Cesar. He took great care of our dog, and we can tell our dog was happy and comfortable throughout the stay. We really appreciate the regular updates and pictures- it gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog had a wonderful time, and we will definitely use him again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ashlee was amazing from start to finish! She made me so comfortable to leave my dog with her, she let me see Milo be introduced with the other pets in her care. And also let me until I was comfortable. She kept in touch with me and sent me pics and updates on how he was doing. Responds quickly and was a complete joy to deal with! I’ll definitely book again next time I’m in town with her! Thank you so much Ashlee again for taking amazing care of my baby ❤️”
About: I've been caring for cats, dogs and other small animals for many years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, play with, groom, and provide companionship for their pets while they're away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, from energetic kittens to senior cats who need extra patience and care. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your furry family members. I will treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own fur babies. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable and attentive care for your pets. I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekends and holidays as needed. I understand that fur babies thrive on routine, I will make sure they receive consistent care, feeding, playtime, and attention while you're away. Your fur babies safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and household rules. I take time to earn each pet trust and respect their individual personality and boundaries. During visits, I’ll make sure they have a clean environment, fresh water is available, and your pet receives plenty of attention, play, and affection. I will also keep your home secure and provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“John was great and did an amazing job. He looked after Rupert for 19 days. Rupert had a great time, was very relaxed when we picked him up. We got regular updates for the duration of his stay. Highly recommend him.”
“Catherine is amazing. She is flexible and considerate-she took my fur baby (Hunter) 30 minutes earlier than we've agreed upon without any hesitation. She sent updates and pictures at least twice a day. I never have to wonder what's going on because she kept me informed. Catherine has two of her own, which is a bonus for us because they are also small breed and friendly. They were great together. Hunter was anxious on his first night but Catherine knew just what to do. Catherine treated my baby like her own. She took Hunter for a walk twice a day, and on top of that, she has let him out in her fenced yard for a quick fresh air between those walks. Catherine has a calm demeanor and very professional. Today, my flight arrival was slightly delayed so I was rushing. I came to pick up Hunter a few minutes late. Coming from a long flight, it was a great relief that she was very understanding and that she had Hunter, on a lease with his belongings all set and ready to go. As if she knew I needed my precious restful sleep ASAP. Catherine's awesome didn't end there, we got home and found out that she sent us a bag of goodies for Hunter. Catherine is simply the best! I can't imagine anyone else can do better than that! Highly recommended!”

We had a great experience with her! She was very attentive, responsive, and took wonderful care of my dog. She made sure he was fed, took him to the park, and kept me updated with photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. The only small issue was that my dog was a little overfed, but that was completely my fault. I forgot to mention that, because he’s an older dog, he needs to eat a specific amount. I also forgot to tell her that he should be supervised during mealtime around other dogs because he’s a little mischievous—he finishes his own food and then tries to eat everyone else’s too! So I don’t blame her at all for that. Overall, I was very happy with the care she provided, and I would absolutely book her again in the future. Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!
Thomas & Lyndsay are truly the best! Our dog is always very excited to spend time with them, and they treat our dog as one of their own. They are flexible if pick up times need to be adjusted and are always very communicative. I always trust our dog is in good hands when we need to be away.
Organ was great with communication! Every time I messaged him he messaged back with in minutes. He took great care of my dog for the weekend. He updated me with photos and was gentle with my dog. He even took her out to walk around the neighborhood as soon as she got there so she can get familiar with it. Will definitely be booking again!
Marty was so good with our little guy! I would highly recommend her to others looking for a sitter. My 13-year old dog had never stayed overnight with anyone but family before and he is usually skittish in new places, so I was nervous to leave him. I’m so glad we found Marty for our weekend away. She calmed my nerves immediately during our visit with her knowledge and care for older pets. She made sure Tobey felt right at home and sent us pictures so we’d know he was happy and snuggled up on the couch. I would definitely board Tobey with Marty again.
Julianna and Matt were amazing dog sitters! We left our pup with them for the weekend and had an outstanding experience. She was very attentive and constantly sent picture/video updates throughout the weekend. Her dog Koda is the sweetest and was a great playmate for our pup. I’d recommend Julianna to anyone looking for a reliable, trusting dog sitter!
She and her family took wonderful care of my small dog for three days. Their home was a great environment for small/medium size dog/cat (but not ideal for large dog) and I could tell my dog was genuinely loved and well cared for. The sitter was very responsive, answered questions quickly, and sent photos and updates throughout the stay. I really appreciated the genuine care, kindness, and communication. I would definitely recommend her.
Kendall was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. My 2 fur babies came back home to us happy and probably a little worn out from the extra exercise she gave them chasing the ball in her complex's dog park. She's a wonderful dog sitter and a wonderful person. You'll not go wrong trusting her with your fur babies.
Genevieve was extremely friendly and responsive anytime we were in communication. Throughout the stay she provided me updates on my sweet pup and even asked clarifying questions. Additionally, she was accommodating to allow me to extent my booking by a day. You can tell she cares a lot about animals!

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 pet, 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.
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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
