“Adrienne and Nick were over the top fantastic sitters for The Doods, Toby + Dexter. They kept them entertained, playing all their favorite games and making sure Dexter didn’t eat any grass. The couch cuddles and TV time was exactly what they were used to and made them feel comfortable. Adrienne knew they liked to dress up and surprised us by creating custom bandannas for them both. All the funny messages and pictures reassured us that they were well taken care of while we were gone. The Doods are already looking forward to their next stay with them.”
“Absolutely fantastic people Mason and Chelsea did above and beyond what we had expected as our first time Rover family and we did a meet and greet, which was fabulous and then we just did our first sitting day and they were absolutely fantastic. The dogs had a good time they were filled with so much joy and happiness when we picked them up that night and they completely crashed. It was like they had spent all day at their best friend‘s house and it was just amazing. We really appreciated all of their incredible communication and will actually be seeing them next week for our next boarding visit and are two pups cannot wait for their next visit with Chelsea and Mason.”
“This is only the second time that our dog was away from me and my husband. I was very apprehensive leaving Archie, knowing that he gets very anxious when he’s not with us. Jeniffer assured us that Archie will be okay. He got to play with other dogs. He looked very happy under her care. Jennifer kept us updated multiple times daily with texts and pictures of Archie. She took such great care of him. She’s very loving and kind. She’s amazing. We will definitely use her service again when we go away.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn’t be happier with the care Muffin received! She stayed for 11 nights, and from the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. Every day we received a detailed update letting us know how she was eating, going potty, what she had been up to that day, and even whether she had made any new furry friends. 🐶💕 One of our favorite parts was getting pictures of Muffin with the CUTEST little hairdos! 🎀 It was so sweet and made us feel like she wasn’t just being watched—she was genuinely being loved and spoiled while we were away. Being gone for 11 nights can make you worry about your fur baby, but the consistent communication and wonderful care gave us so much peace of mind. Muffin looked happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. We are extremely happy with our experience and would absolutely trust her with Muffin again. We’re so thankful she took such wonderful care of our furry girl! 🐾❤️”
“Madeline took very good care of my mini Goldendoodle. Her two dogs got along well with him. She sent pictures and videos each day to show me that my dog was happy and in good care. She updated me on his eating, walking, and bathroom breaks. I like that she took him on long walks in her neighborhood. She allowed him to roam the house and find his own comfortable spot. This was the first time I've left my dog for a vacation. I will definitely use Madeline again in the future. She was very attentive to his needs and a loving caretaker. I highly recommend her.”
“Allyson was the absolute best sitter. She treated him like he was her own. Picasso was a great host! I will recommend Allyson to everyone I know. Thank you Allyson and Picasso. Newton says he would like to come see Picasso again ❤️”
“Kristen was amazing! She sent us regular pictures and answered any questions I had before we met. Kristen might have actually done too good of a job our dogs were as excited as they normally are to see us when we picked them up.”
“My dog absolutely loves staying with them. She loves catching lizards in the yard and loves that she gets to sleep with them in their bed. When I picked her up she could care less about coming home with me. I really appreciate them treating her like she is their own.”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Gifford can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gifford home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gifford.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gifford. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Gifford sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
