“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we dropped off our high energy pup, we knew she was in the best hands. She was treated with so much love and care, and we were updated regularly with photos, videos, and sweet notes that made us feel completely at ease during our trip. Our dog got daily walks, tons of attention, and came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. We are beyond grateful and our dog is already looking forward to the next visit! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely treats your pet like family. We’re so grateful and will absolutely be booking again!”
“She was very kind and communicative. She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the stay, and she was able to accommodate all of our needs. We felt our dog was in great hands. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Nanny was amazing! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone that wasn't family and Nanny made Daphne feel like family. She was so welcoming and sweet with Daphne. Loads of pictures to keep us comfortable and answered any questions we asked throughout the experience! Would 1000% recommend Nanny if you are in the area and need someone to watch your dog!”

“Being a loyal customer of Maydel, I just have to say that my dog absolutely adores her. He was feeling down before, but now he's living his best life. Teddy is having the time of his life on vacation. She treats him like one of her own and, of course, spoils him rotten.”
“Yara was fantastic! She cared for my dog Bruno on very short notice, offering a warm, attentive, and loving experience. I was able to book her the same day for the weekend, which was a great relief. Yara and her family showed much care and affection, making Bruno feel like part of their home. Thank you so much, Yara. We would definitely trust you with Bruno again!”

“Very good experience. Alexis went out of the way to accommodate my service dog. She sent me several videos every few minutes and made my time without him a lot less stressful. Anytime we are back in Miami we will be using Alexis services for sure. I recommend Alexis, without hesitation, for any of your needs with pets sitting.”
“My dog,Sonic, was in great shape when picked up. Since he was a very active schnauzer, i hada concern he would be too much but seeing daily photos showed me she could handle hin. Kiara sent pictures twice a day and we could see he was well taken care of. Will board him with kiara in future.”
“Anelys is a great dog sitter. It was the first time my dogs had stayed at another person’s home, and they were a little bit anxious, but Anelys took the best care of them. They did not want to leave. Anelys sent pictures every day and updates that made us feel more relaxed during our vacation.”
“Daysy and family took wonderful care of our dogs for TWO WEEKS. I know that is a lot to ask of a Rover sitter. We love that the dogs looked so happy and were well taken care of the entire time they were there. Would book Daysy again, she is phenomenal.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for my own dogs for 12+ years each, giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’ve also cared for family and friends’ dogs while they were away, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. I have experience caring for senior dogs who needed extra attention, including administering medications and IV fluids. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable following special care instructions to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I work full-time during the week, but I’m home by around 2:00 PM on weekdays, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pup. Your dog will only be home alone for a limited amount of time, and I’ll be able to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care when I’m home. I’m also available for boarding on weekends and can provide a comfortable, loving environment while you’re away. I have a fenced-in yard that provides a safe and comfortable space for dogs to play and get some fresh air. My home is very pet-friendly, and I’m able to provide a calm, caring environment where your dog can feel comfortable and at home. I’ll follow your dog’s routine and any special instructions to make sure they receive the care and attention they need.

Carolina was fabulous! She was very kind to me and very loving to our Angie. She was so easy to communicate with, very prompt. She sent pictures of Angie so we could see her enjoying herself. She has a great backyard for dogs to enjoy. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Carolina again if the need arises.
Janeth was so sweet and patient with my doggies, it’s hard for us to trust anyone with our senior dogs and I could tell they were comfortable with her. She communicates very well and we are very thankful for all her pictures. I would recommend her services to anyone with a pet!
Melissa was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the photos and updates of Fenway throughout his stay. Our flight arrived in the evening, and she went above and beyond by bringing Fenway directly to us after a long, exhausting travel day. That thoughtful gesture meant so much to our family. Thank you for taking such great care of Fenway, Melissa! We are truly grateful and would absolutely recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
First of all, we are beyond grateful to have found such a great person like Marbely who loves animals and showed a great deal of care and compassion to our pet Lolita, who needed special care due to her sensitive stomach. Marbely was very patient and dedicated to ensuring Lolita was well taken care of and that her wellbeing was a top priority. While Lolita was under her care, we received regular updates on how she was doing which gave us complete peace of mind and relief knowing she was doing okay. She has two wonderful dogs big Rocky and Guinea that were fantastic and they became great friends with Lolita which made her stay even more pleasant. We would definitely recommend Marbely to our friends and family, and we will certainly book with her again in the future with absolute trust that our pet is in good hands. Thank you so much and God Bless You.
I had such a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of my three dogs and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I especially loved receiving pictures and updates. it was so comforting to see my pups happy and well cared for! Her communication was fantastic, and I could tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave my fur babies. I would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, caring, and reliable sitter! ❤️🐾
Best of the best! I couldn’t have asked for better babysitter I truly appreciate all they did. He kept sending me pictures and updating me. Mimi’s tail was always wiggling and I knew she was in good hands. They even extended the day when I asked them for the favor due ti family emergency. Thank you again and will definitely book again!
This was my first time using Rover, and it couldn't have gone any better. I left my 8 month old puppy with Katherine and she loved every minute! Katherine was sweet and kind to my little one, kept her on her routine and was very communicative. Her enhanced knowledge for caring for furbabies really shines through and I was never worried during the boarding process. Katherine is very accommodating and she will certainly be seeing us again!
Great! We couldn’t be happier with the care Rachel provided! From the start, it was clear that you understood just how much energy and personality comes with a JRT, and she handled it like a Pro. Chunky can definitely be a handful, but she kept him happy, engaged, and well cared for the entire time. We especially appreciated the updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away; not easy to find someone who can match the enthusiasm and patience needed for a high-energy dog, but you absolutely delivered. We came home to a happy, healthy dog, and that says it all. Thank you again for going above and beyond we would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
George was absolutely amazing with my dog, Luna. From the moment I left her in his care, I felt completely at ease. He’s very respectful, kind, and clearly knows how to handle dogs with patience and attention. Luna warmed up to him right away, which says a lot about his energy and how comfortable he makes pets feel. Throughout the day, he made sure she was well taken care of keeping her active, happy, and sticking to her routine. He also sent me photos throughout the day showing me what my luna was up to. When I picked her up, she was relaxed and in great spirit, which showed me she had a really good experience. I’d definitely trust George again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring with their pets.
Isabella is amazing! We just cannot say enough good things about her. She kept us updated on how our black lab (Bella) was doing, took her on walks, sent a picture. We felt totally comfortable leaving Bella with her, and would not hesitate to use her again. We are happy to give Isabella a 5-star review. If you're looking for a totally awesome sitter for your fur baby, we highly recommend Isabella!!
Angelie was amazing with Huggy! He stayed with her for a full week while I was traveling, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. She has great experience with dogs of all sizes, including Golden Retriever, and was very confident handling Huggy while he was still recovering from the neuter surgery. She sent lots of updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind throughout the stay. Her two dogs, Chloe and Cookie, are adorable and very sweet. Even though they’re smaller than Huggy, they got along really well, and it was clear she managed introductions thoughtfully and safely. When I needed to extend the stay, she was flexible and accommodating without hesitation, which I truly appreciated. Angelie is easygoing, kind, and clearly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Homestead is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $59 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,850 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Homestead. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Homestead 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 Homestead 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 Homestead.
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 Homestead. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Homestead 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.
