Voici une version corrigée : Kierra was absolutely amazing with Lucky! She took such great care of her and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Lucky was happy, comfortable, and well loved while he was with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely book with Kierra again. Thank you so much!

Kiley was amazing and took such good care of my dog Nike! We met her dog Skylar right out the gate and I could already tell Nike and her were going to get along just fine. She sent me a ton of photos to let me know how Nike was doing and when I picked him up he was so happy and tired out. Would recommend 100%

About: I’ve had my own pets for over 6 years and have taken care of multiple pets that were not my own as well. I give my all when it comes to taking care of animals and will make your pet feel right at home with me. I love taking dogs on long walks and playing with them outdoors! I’m super patient and would love to meet your best friend and treat them like my own🥰 I work from home most of the week so I’m available to take dogs on walks often and watch/play with them at home. I live in an apartment and take my own dog, Teddy, on multiple walks a day around the neighborhood. We have a little bark park so sometimes I’ll take him there to run around and play!

I had a last minute request (day before) for someone to watch my dog for a day because he recently injured his pads on all 4 feet and I needed to go to work but was not comfortable leaving him alone. At the time when Kathleen watched him, he was in a cone and on medication. When we talked beforehand, Kathleen was very kind and thoughtful, asking great questions and anticipating potential needs to make sure he would be safe and comfy in her care. While watching him, he ended up feeling a bit better than he had been in previous days and not as groggy from his medications, so was not as calm as I thought he would be for her, but she still did a great job of making sure he stayed safe and did not re-injure his feet. She provided updates at reasonable intervals without me having to ask and was very kind the entire time, even with me not knowing exactly what time I would be able to pick him up. Thanks so much to Kathleen, I would definitely trust her to watch my boy again.

About: Hi there! I have six years of experience caring for my mom's dogs. Growing up, I’ve always had a deep passion for animals, especially dogs. From a young age, I was the go-to person in my family for looking after our furry friends, and that love has only grown over the years. I currently work as a teacher, and I truly enjoy helping and caring for others—whether they’re people or pets! The bond I have with dogs is something I cherish deeply. Whether it's taking them for walks, playing, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I’m always excited to spend time with them. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have CPR training, so you can feel confident that I can respond quickly in any emergency situation. I’d love to offer my services and care for your dog with the same compassion and dedication. I understand the importance of keeping your furry friend happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting your pet and giving them the best care! I’m currently working as a teacher until 3 PM, so I am available every day after working hours. I can offer flexible pet care services during the evenings, whether it's for walks, playtime, or overnight care. On weekends, I am available all day, so I can provide full-day care, outings, or anything your pet needs. My schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to your pet, ensuring they get the attention and care they deserve! Although I don’t have pets of my own, I have a deep passion for caring for dogs and ensuring their safety and happiness. I live in a first-floor apartment, which is cozy and secure for your pet. It’s a safe, calm environment where your dog can feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m committed to providing a trustworthy and loving experience, keeping your pet's well-being as my top priority. You can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own, ensuring their safety at all times.

Rachel is just the 2nd pet sitter my 2 year old Chihuahua has had. Dante is very much a Momma's boy so I was very worried how he would do. I'm here for a 90 day TDY assignment and didn't want to leave him in Texas. The first day he was mad at me for leaving him with a stranger but by the 3rd day, he was adjusting and the 4th day he made a huge improvement. I'm thankful for Rachel's patience and the follow up. I plan to continue with Rachel 4 days a week thru June. I would definitely recommend her!

About: I've taken care and trained animals since I was a child, I treat them as my own. I've taken care of neighbors' animals and house sat for them. I pride myself on taking the best care of other people's fur babies like they are my own! I work in an office 5 days a week but can provide round the clock care with my partner who works remotely. Most weekends you can find me at a park or hitting the beach so thats great for dogs! My neighborhood has a community dog park and is very dog friendly. My house has hardwood floors so accidents in the house aren't a huge deal. Lots of windows for the pets to look out of and guard if that's what they're into. I love cuddling in bed with animals but also respect their alone time if they need that.

About: I took care of my dog all growing up. Was part of his training to become a hunting dog, so I understand the level of discipline needed when handling a dog. Unfortunately, he passed away a few months ago, so I'm desperately looking to be around dogs in some capacity again! I am an Occupational Therapist, so I'm looking to make some cash on the side. The way my schedule is set up allows me some free time during the day, so I'm able to take care of a pet at various times of the day. I'm very respectful of other peoples homes and trustworthy. I think a pet is part of the family so when taking care of a pet I want to make sure they are fully taken care of, as well as comfortable in their environment.

About: I’ve been the go-to “dog auntie” since I was little, and I truly love spending time with them—big or small! Friends and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and love their pups like my own. I’m comfortable with all personalities, from shy snugglers to high-energy explorers, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. I work full-time remotely so I am always around. I am also available on weekends for walks, or drop-ins. Your pup will always have time for cuddles, play, and walks built into my routine. I have two friendly dogs and a fenced dog park in my community where pups can safely play and relax. I always treat every pet like family—whether that means sticking to their feeding routine, crate training, or just giving extra snuggles. You can trust your dog will be safe, happy, and cared for like my own.

Tara is an amazing dog sitter. Her house is huge, her roommates are so kind , and they have an awesome backyard and pool. She is very flexible, kind and understanding. Sent me a few photos.. Tesla seemed very happy and I’m grateful to her because I work weird hours. I will definitely book with her again. My favorite part was she got to spend time with an Aussie which Tesla got along with great. Tara did let me know this which meant so much.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Gandy

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gandy on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,562 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Gandy. 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 Gandy 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 2,562 sitters in Gandy, 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.
