“Emily is so friendly and communicative. She sent lots of pictures of our puppy and kept us updated throughout the day. We love that she has so many animals and so much space for our little guy to play. He came home good and sleepy after a fun day! I would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone!”
“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: We have had pets my entire life. Presently we have 2 dogs in our home. A senior dog (Walker hound/lab mix), Maximus, and a 5 year old beagle/lab mix, Luna. They love to have company! We have a large, fenced in yard for them to play in all day. Presently my home is available for overnight stays. As long as your dog is other pet friendly, they are welcome! We can accommodate crates also. The fenced in yard is available at all times. But your pet is also welcome in our house. We can use your dog beds or crates also.
“Laurie and Mark were SPECTACULAR!! They took such great care of my Tanner! They also introduced him to new things such as the pool, and chickens! Haha he had a blast playing with their dogs as well! Couldn’t ask for a better experience! Will definitely book with them again!”
About: I am a devoted pet enthusiast with a heart as big as my love for dogs. For over a decade, I've immersed myself in the world of canine care, cherishing every wagging tail and sloppy kiss along the way. My passion for our furry friends knows no bounds, spanning across all ages and breeds. With a gentle touch and unwavering patience, I have honed my skills as a dog trainer, guiding numerous pups through obedience training and behavioral challenges. Whether it's teaching a rambunctious puppy to sit or helping an older dog master new tricks, I approach each furry student with compassion and understanding. I am a teacher but after work hours my life revolves around my dogs. I have 2 friendly Belgian Malinois ready to play if your pet would like. If not I am more than happy to crate and rotate. I am more than happy to come into your home and pet sit for you if your dog would do better at home. During the summer this will be my full time job so your dog will hardly ever be alone. I am more than happy to play and walk them whenever they would like and offer them lots of cuddles.
“Miss Bee had a great doggy day care with Krista B! Krista sent pics and updates of BeeBee hanging out on the sofa and cooling off in the pool. Thank you, Krista - we're looking forward to our next stay with you.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who genuinely enjoys giving pups the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. 🐾 Whether your dog loves long walks, backyard playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. I’m reliable, active, easy to communicate with, and happy to keep you updated with plenty of photos while your pup is in my care. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your dog, so I’ll always treat yours like they’re part of the family. ❤️ Lots of walks, lots of attention, and plenty of tail wags! 🐶 I work from home full-time, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches during the day. I’m available for frequent potty breaks, backyard playtime, walks, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout their stay. I live in a house with a fully fenced yard, no children, and one friendly dog of my own. My goal is to make your dog feel like they’re staying at a second home—not a kennel. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and sleep routine so their stay is as comfortable and familiar as possible. I also provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is having a great time. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first.

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.
“Lilliana is great. She is knowledgeable and patient. Our dog is very energetic. She's given us some good training tips, also. We're visiting from out of town and we've used her three times. She sends pictures and texts throughout his visit to keep us up on what he's up to.”
“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.
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 3 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 greyhound is a senior and friendly and has accepted all my boarders without issues. If your dog likes to mark I do have belly bands to use while in the house.
“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! 🐾❤️”
“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!”
“Tucker had a blast at Deana T's. Large fenced in backyard to run around and he played well with her 2 dogs. Made the reservation on very short notice (1 Day) and it was not a problem.”
“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.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Lake Kathryn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,286 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lake Kathryn. 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 Kathryn 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 1,286 sitters in Lake Kathryn, 86% 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.
