“I would highly recommend Tina and could tell that she had a genuine love for dogs. My Sydney came home happy and sleepy which is an accomplishment even for me. Tina truly understood the exercise needs of an Aussie.”
“I had a great experience with Daniel! They took wonderful care of my dog and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I loved receiving daily updates and pictures—my pup looked so happy and well cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“Hailey took amazing care of my special needs little Bruno during his stay with her. From the moment we met her, it was obvious she truly loves animals and treats them like family — and she treated Bruno like one of her own dogs. She kept us updated every few hours with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bruno can be very attached and sensitive, so seeing how comfortable and happy he was meant everything to me :)”
“Chris was fantastic. Very accommodating to our schedule and our lab pup was very well taken care. Really enjoyed getting picks of him throughout his stay. Will definitely use Chris again and highly recommend.”
“I cannot recommend Nicole enough! Leaving my dog is always a bit stressful, but Nicole completely put my mind at ease. I received regular updates and photos, and it was clear that my dog was happy, safe, and loved. They are professional, reliable, and truly gifted with animals. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Another 5 star stay for our Bella girl! We are so grateful to Cindy and Santhosh for taking great care of our sweet girl so that we can travel with peace of mind. They seem to really enjoy having her which makes us feel good 😊”
“Lovely family! My pup had an amazing time there, Maria was excellent on communication and sent pics my dog while I was away. I couldn’t be happier and am excited to have found Maria and her family. Thank you so much, we will be back!”
“My first time leaving my fur babies with a sitter, and I couldn’t have picked anyone better. I got updates and pictures of my babies. It made leaving them easier for me, knowing they had the best sitter!”
“Dulce and her husband were great with Biggie! Dulce showed biggie love and attention which he needs a lot of. He came home very happy, calm and well taken care of. I received daily photos and videos while away which gave me peace of mind. I would highly recommend her!”
“Oh, my goodness! I have a very recently rescued dog, and I needed to go out of town overnight. Jocelyn was SO wonderful with my dog! She made sure he was comfortable in her home and she sent lots of pictures. She spent time with Humphrey, gave him treats and cuddles. He had a very nice visit! We will definitely come back next time. Thank you, Jocelyn!”
“Frankie gives Dzeni and Kathy all the stars, all the tail wags, and possibly a few bonus zoomies. He had the best time with them and came home happy, loved, and clearly convinced he had been on his own little vacation. They were wonderful with him — kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly dog people in the best possible way. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in their care, and Frankie would absolutely pack his tiny imaginary suitcase to go back again. Highly recommend! Frankie says 10/10, would visit again, especially if treats and attention are involved.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Brittany stayed with our dog for three weeks, and from start to finish, it was pure peace of mind. Our big boy was not only well cared for, but genuinely loved and spoiled — daily walks, playtime, snuggles, and regular updates with adorable photos. Coming home, our dog was calm, happy. If you’re lucky enough to book Brittany, do it — your dog (and your sanity) will thank you!”
“Everything was perfect and smooth from the meet and greet to the stay! Raja had an amazing time with the host family and their dogs. We appreciated the daily communication with pictures and flexibility with our pick up time, especially when our flight was delayed almost 10 hours. They took care of him with lots of love and would highly recommend without hesitation. This was a very respectable family home and we would trust them with our pup again!”
“Miriam provided excellent care for my Alaskan Malamute. She kept me updated daily and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the photos that my dog was happy and well cared for with lots of belly rubs and attention from Miriam's kids. I also appreciated that there were other dogs there for my dog to socialize with. I would absolutely recommend Miriam to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Such a pleasure to deal with her from the very beginning, and I had peace of mind from there on. She continued to contact me throughout the eight days and give me updates and pictures and videos. I would certainly use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for wonderful care for their beloved pet.”
“Both Beanie and Buster seem to have enjoyed their stay with Elizabeth! She has an amazing way to handle dogs and so happy that she got Beanie and Buster to feel at home in her place. Great 👍”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Bethany kept me updated with messages and pictures, and my two dogs were well cared for while they stayed with her! I’ll definitely try to rebook with her the next time I need someone to watch them.”
“Adrienne has watched Buster and Franky several times and it has been a great experience each time! They love being with Adrienne and Steve and feel right at home. They are treated as part of the family.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Lacoochee home-away-from-home, 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 Lacoochee.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Lacoochee 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 , 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 .
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.
