“She is so great! My babies warmed up fast to her! Sends lots of updates, which I love! Very friendly and will definitely hire her everytime I bring the dogs with me on vacation❤️”
“Veld was absolutely amazing. I had never left my puppy with anyone before and I was nervous. However, there was nothing to be worried about at all. Daisy had a great time. Vely sent me lots of pictures and a few videos. I was kept up to date with everything going on. If you are thinking is having your dog stay with Vely, I highly recommend her. I will be using her again the next time I need someone to watch my dog!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life. I have worked at dog boarding facilities and various rescues over the years. I am currently a volunteer with a local rescue in Lakeland. I have three small dogs of my own, who are like my kids. I’m home most of the time so your pet will rarely be unsupervised but when I do need to leave the house, I have steps and protocols in place to assure your pet's safety while I am away. I have a 6ft privacy fenced back yard. All lawn care items are locked away in a shed to lessen the risk of your pet getting into anything potentially toxic. I supervise feedings and separate dogs, if necessary. I can also administer oral medications.
“Jani was great with Junior. He only stayed with her for the day. He can be fickle in his old age but loves people. She did great getting him comfortable in her home and giving him attention but also his freedom when needed. I received constant pictures which is always great! Will use Jani again if needed!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. Neighbors at first, and then family and friends, relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their dogs. My miniature poodle, Louie, loves to have company. We live in North Lakeland in a fenced-in single home with a pool. I work part-time from home, so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pup! I'm available for day care and boarding on weekdays and weekends. We have a big fenced-in yard, a pool, and an oversized lanai for your friend to hang out in. Our friendly Louie will keep your pup company inside and outside the house. I will walk your dog regularly, and we will have lots of play time.
About: I have had a big passion for animals since childhood. I grew up with many animals and always dreamed of working with animals. I graduated from university with an associate in veterinary technician. I been working for several years in veterinary medicine and doggy daycare i really have fun and enjoy all my time with them. I’m currently working 3 days per week, usually I’m off on Sunday and the rest of the time at home. My schedule rotates, I do not always have the same days off. I have an empty room only for them, small cage if needed and a porch that they can be around. I’m a pet friendly and I always walk my dog around so he can enjoy the complex.
“A wonderful stay for Maggie. I would recommend to anyone. My Mags is all for me and I felt and saw how happy she was to be there. Made my day relaxing being so far from home as Randi texted me photos of Maggie in her most relaxing positions.”
About: Hi there! My name is Melanie and I have always worked with animals! I have volunteered hundreds of hours to The Humane Society of Tampa Bay and took in many dogs as a foster parent for months at a time, ranging from breeds and ages (some were even too young to adopt). I can watch any breed for as long or short as needed and can handle more than one. My home is about 1500 sq feet and i have a large fenced in yard. I do have young children so the animals need to be okay with kiddo (ages 12, 11, 9 and an infant). Please feel free to contact me night or day! I am currently a stay at home mom, so I am free all day! I do have a baby that takes up a good portion of my time, but would have plenty to care for your pup! I have a fenced in yard and children who are used to dogs and very well aware of how to treat them. The house is laid out in a manner that there is room to roam.

“I booked with Alberto as a last minute resort and I was very happy to have found such a caring person who truly cares about the fur babies left in his care. My Princess was taken care of and I look forward to using his services again”
“I had an incredible experience with this sitter. I needed a quick sitter in 15 minutes, and she was right there to accept my dog. As soon as I arrived, she was very welcoming and friendly. She sent me lots of pictures of my dog while she was there, which was a great touch. There’s no other sitter like this one!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gibsonia
Vely and her husband were wonderful this weekend. From the moment I arrived, I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. She is professional, polite, punctual and clearly very experienced with dogs. Koda, who usually screams in distress when i leave, let her take his lead, and waltzed off with her to enjoy play time with other doggos. I would absolutely trust her to watch Koda again, and highly recommend her and her husband. great team.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gibsonia on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Gibsonia 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 1,656 sitters in Gibsonia, 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.
