About: Since I was little I have taken care of pets of family and neighbors, taking care of walks, food and games. I enjoy giving them attention, affection and creating a safe environment for them." “I am available to care for pets Monday through Sunday. On weekdays, and on weekends I am available all day. This schedule allows me to dedicate quality time to feeding, walking, playing, and making sure your pets are safe and happy. Pet care easily fits into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve.” Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a calm and loving environment where your pets feel safe and cared for, whether in my home or yours. I follow instructions carefully, keep a clean space, and make sure they get the right balance of playtime, exercise, and rest. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, kindness, and trust, so you can feel confident while you’re away.”
About: Hello! I enjoy taking care of dogs! Love them! I’ve had many dogs over the years myself. I have owned & taken care of dogs since I was a chid. I love all animals! And I enjoy this job.. I’m a very compassionate dog caretaker! :) I am currently available any time. This is my full time job. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I have a dog park where I live :) And there are beautiful places to walk in a dog friendly townhouse community. I can crate your dog if needed. (You must bring the crate)
“Genevieve was great. Master Chief felt right at home. She sent pics throughout his stay showing how much fun he had. When we dropped him off, she made sure to help us feel comfortable before we left. Highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. When I turned 18 I adopted my Frodo, a fox hound who lived to be 19. I cared for him through his old age and had to carry him up & down the stairs for the last few years of his life as he had degenerative disk disease. I have foster dogs frequently and I will treat your baby as I would my own. We go regularly to the dog parks to socialize aside from playing in our own back yard. Your pet will be safe, happy and loved while you are away and you will be updated at least once every 4 hours with pictures. I am a teacher so I am free to be home with your pet all day long during the summer and school vacations. Aside from that I am free all weekends and evenings. During our time together your pup will have walks as often as you request, can run free in the yard, will be fed according to your schedule, can swim in the pool, and will be cuddled as much as your pup wants. For cats, I tailor my care to the individual cat based on your requests and your cat’s preferences. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a back yard that is fenced with a pool. Your baby can have the run of my house or can crate if that’s what you normally do. My goal is to keep your pets routine as normal as possible while you are gone so my care will be tailored to your requests. I am a teacher, so I am home all summer, school, vacations, and weekends. I am also home in the evenings. During the normal school year, I am gone for 8 hours out of the day. If the calendar says I am available then that means your pup will be the center of attention during that time. I have a fenced backyard where your pup can roam or a crate if that is what they prefer. They can have the run of my house or a sweet spot on the couch. Keeping your pets normal routine is key.
“Great communication, was able to accommodate my dog last minute & he was so happy when I picked him up. Simba is a high energy dog & the sitter had a great attitude towards his energetic personality which I really appreciate. Will be using her services again in the future.”

I am also a former cat owner and I have care d for parrots. Since I was young, I have also cared for small animals such as birds, rabbits, hamsters, and turtles. This early experience helped me become comfortable and confident around animals and taught me responsibility and gentle handling from an early age. I genuinely love animals and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being while they are in my care. I currently work remotely, which allows me to provide flexible care throughout day and night. I am available for boarding, day care in a safe and calm environment. Clients are responsible for drop off and pick up at my home ;) I live in a safe HOA managed neighborhood with a quiet and clean home environment. I have a small fenced backyard and no children, creating a calm and secure space for pet.

About: I bring 25 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, plus years of helping family and friends care for theirs too. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog like they’re my own—with warmth, patience, and gentle care. From snuggles and belly rubs to walks, playtime, and companionship, my goal is to become your pet’s trusted best friend while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re loved, safe, and happy. I currently work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide your dog with the time, attention, and care they need while you’re away or at work. I can easily follow your pet’s regular schedule for feedings, walks, playtime, and potty breaks to help them feel comfortable and cared for. While I may occasionally step out for errands or school drop-offs/pick-ups for my kids, your pet would never be left alone for long periods and would still receive plenty of love, companionship, and attention throughout the day. My goal is to work with your schedule while making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Your dog will be welcomed into a warm, loving home environment where they can feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I have a friendly Yorkie poo who loves companionship and can be a built-in buddy for your pup. My home also has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. With children in the home, your dog will be around plenty of love, attention, and gentle interaction. Unless you prefer otherwise, dogs are welcome to roam freely and make themselves at home. I’m also happy to follow your specific preferences, whether that means crating, setting up a designated space, or sticking to routines that help your pet feel most comfortable. My priority is creating a safe, fun, and caring environment tailored to your dog’s needs.

About: I work from home so your pet will never be without attention. I have a big fenced in back yard and salt water pool that dogs love!! I live close to parks and walking trails, so it’s like sending your pup to summer camp 🏕️ I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I love getting to know each one. I spend time playing, watching, and listening, because every dog communicates differently. I’m quick to pick up on what they need. I’m loyal, consistent, and fully present. I work with puppies on basic training and pool safety, helping them build confidence early on. I also do water therapy for older dogs who need low-impact movement and have had great success helping manage and decrease their pain. Whether it’s training, playing, exercise, or just company, I focus on what’s best for each dog. My constant interaction and attentiveness toward each dogs individual needs sets me apart from others. I am willing to work with any and all requirements your dog may need. No request is too much, my goal is a sense of comfort and trust for all owners. I care for all animals as if they were my own, and I prioritize owners feeling confident that their pet is receiving the same care they would at home. Experience with senior dogs, rescue dogs, dog reactive dogs, and restricted breeds like pit bulls. I love having them all! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or additional needs/specific requirements! Working remote, I have the luxury of being home to focus on pet care. It is a part of my daily life, it's never something I squeeze in, it’s something I show up for. I plan my days around the animals I’m caring for and have no problem giving the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day play, consistent training, or quiet evening check-ins, I’m flexible and fully committed to their routine. I treat every home and every pet with care and respect. I follow the wishes of the owners and the pet’s routine closely so both you and your pet feel safe and secure, whether I’m staying in their space or welcoming them into mine. I keep environments calm, clean, and pet-proofed, and I’m adept at staying tuned to their body language and energy. I build trust by being present, consistent, and patient. Their safety and comfort come first, always.

“This was the first time we used Rover for Zelda and we are super glad we chose Don to watch her. We told him that Zelda has a habit of taking things off of tables and counters and he “Zelda proofed” his house for us. She came home happy and safe, which is all we could wish for. We will be using Don again. Thanks Don!”
“Megan was a lifesaver! She took care of our dog Milo for the day on short notice and even worked with our schedule to have him dropped off. She was very sweet with him and sent updates with photos. I highly recommend and would not hesitate to book again.”
About: - Animal lover with more than 16 years of experience. - Personalized walks and playtime. - Daily photo and video updates. - Experience in taking care of senior dogs.

I highly recommend Alejandro & his wife. They are extremely reliable, caring, and always take great care of my puppy. It comforts me knowing my puppy is in good care whenever I leave him there. My puppy is always so excited and happy to go to their house, which tells me everything about how loved and comfortable he feels there. I truly appreciate the kindness, and care they provide every time.
Mikayla was amazing! Coco stayed with her during the day while I was at a baby shower, and she took such good care of her. She kept me updated, sent me photos, and made me feel so comfortable. What really touched me was that her whole family was waiting for Coco in front of their house when we arrived — it was so sweet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Golden Lakes on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,726 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Golden Lakes. 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 Golden Lakes 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.
