“First time puppy mom, first time Rover user with that said while puppies can’t talk i can tell based on how happy he was to see Laurie on each day he had a great time . Would definitely recommend and have already booked his next stay!”
“Emillie is a dream pet sitter! This was my 5 month old Golden's first time being away from me. I had more anxiety than him, but Emillie put my mind at ease from the initial meeting through the day, and at pick up! Of everyone communicated as well as Emillie, this world would be a better and less confused place. Emillie kept me updated about every half hour with how Prince was doing, and I got wonderful photos too, which made me laugh and relax at the same time. At pick up, my boy was happy to see me but totally comfortable with Emillie snuggling him goodbye and he just laid down on the driveway, relaxed, tired, and happy while we talked about our next drop off. Emillie's two Goldens are beautiful and very healthy and happy. Her house is clean and well set up for dogs. I couldn't be happier and neither could Prince. I'm thrilled to have a go-to that's close by when my daughter has away games or whenever I need to be gone for longer periods of time and can't take my puppy.”
“Linda was wonderful! We so appreciate her calm and gentle way with pups! Winnie can be a little nervous with new people but Linda was a pro. We will definitely return to Linda and Dickens!”
About: I work from home so your pup will receive continuous attention and playtime. Personal pet owner of up to 4 dogs at a time. As a RN I have no problem administering your dogs medications, including injections. Daycare/boarding includes walking your pet and possible doggie park on the weekends if you are comfortable with that. After recently losing 2 members of my pack, I decided to spoil and love on other peoples pets. Most of my best friends are dog owners! I prefer a meet and greet before boarding your pet. My greys are friendly and once they do some sniffy sniffs they are good. If your dog likes to mark I do have belly bands to use while in the house.
“She took amazing care of my two doggies my girl is very skeptical of wtrangers and she loved her from the first day. sent amazing pictures and videos through the day, did not have to worry about anything and enjoy my vacation!”
“Maeve came home happy and tired from a full day of play during her daycare stay with Suhas & Shruthi. They were reliable, attentive to Maeve’s needs, took her out on several walks during the day, and sent me several adorable photos & videos throughout the day. I highly recommend!”
“First time, but it definitely won’t be our last! So glad that I could find somebody trustworthy and reliable to watch my Angel when we are out of town. I received so many pictures and updates and felt safe and relieved the whole time I was away. For reference, I have 105 pound great dane and and she had so much fun!”
“Magnolia was very prompt in responding and easy to work with. She took great care of my boy for my day away. Very pleased with the details of Rocco’s day and the cute snapshots of him enjoying the big spacious yard. I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
About: Hi! I’m a mom and a lifelong dog lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life. I truly have a heart for dogs and believe they deserve a safe, loving, and fun environment while their owners are away. I enjoy spending time playing with them, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Your dog will be treated like part of the family, with lots of love, patience, and supervision. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Someone will always be home with your pet- either myself or my husband. We are flexible with drop off, but the latest time for pick up that we allow is 9pm unless arranged beforehand. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care. I have a fully fenced yard where they can safely play and explore, as well as a covered patio where they can relax and enjoy the fresh air. Whether they're staying in my home or I'm caring for them in yours, I'll do my best to keep them comfortable, happy, and following their usual routine.
“Great stay again for our two pups, as always! We really appreciate Leon and Nick's high level of knowledge about dogs and how they interact with each other, as well as with people. We'll be back!”
“Karla and Victor are great! They communicate well and are very caring with my large dog Beowulf. They are very understanding of his needs and I would highly recommend them.”
“First time leaving my Irish Setter with Emily. She made me feel very comfortable that my Olivia was in good hands. It seems. My pup was quite content having been spoiled a bit and having had playtime. I received pics and updates letting me know and showing that Olivia was well taken are of. I most definitely will be bringing her back if they will have my rambunctious doggie back. Thanks Emily!”
“Highly recommended! Michael and his family took wonderful care of Mambo. His wife was especially great with him, and Mambo became very attached to her, which says a lot about how comfortable and loved he felt. Their children were also very sweet with him. They have a beautiful, spacious home with a nice yard, making it a great place for dogs. I was very happy with Mambo’s care and will definitely use My again. 100% recommended! 🐾❤️”
About: I love helping friends and families with all of their animal-care needs. I have experience with livestock, dogs, cats, and more. I'm happy to board at our house. We live on 3 acres and we are totally fenced in. I am a mother to two kids and we homeschool, so we are home and available as often as needed to help. No pet will be left bored or lonely! I'm happy to drop by and walk your pet from your home. Even better, we can board here at our home where your pet can be one of the family! We have 3 acres fenced in and plenty of room to play.
About: I never leave a pet family until both the dog and human feel like they understand everything we worked on. I provide videos and take request if there are specific things you would like me to work on with your dog(s). When I take care of pets, even just over night, I provide a balanced and healthy environment. I have mentored under numerous dog behaviorists throughout the past 10 years and can assure that your dog will always be in the most caring, loving hands. I have experience with various breeds of all sizes and age. As I own a dog training business, pet care is what I do every day, all day. My routine consists of feeding, walking, playing with, training and caring for dogs! I have a yard in the back where dogs can relieve themselves. I own a treadmill for hot days when the dogs need to be walked but the concrete is too hot for their paws. I have an endless amount of toys, bones, crates, mind puzzles, etc.

I left my 2 year old with Micheal and he came home reset and fulfilled at the end of the day. He provided a safe, engaging environment and even spent some time training. He’s got average prices with above and beyond service. I would absolutely trust Micheal with my dog again.
We are so grateful for the incredible care our puppy Boone has received here at what we lovingly call "Harlan's Holler". From the very beginning, they have gone above and beyond—not just watching him, but truly investing in his well-being. When Boone was sick, they treated him with so much compassion and gave us advice that helped us through a really difficult time. Honestly, we might not have made it through the challenges of raising our wild boxer puppy without their support. They’ve given Boone not only love, but also new skills—teaching him how to swim, helping with his manners, and making him feel happy and safe. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for them; it’s a genuine passion. Knowing Boone is cared for by people who treat him like their own has been such a gift. We couldn’t recommend them more highly—they are kind, knowledgeable, and truly one of the best things that has happened for us and our pup. Boone absolutely adores them, and so do we!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lake Helen on Rover is $33.3 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 1,449 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lake Helen. 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 Lake Helen 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 1,449 sitters in Lake Helen, 87% 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.
