“Adrienne was very warm and welcoming, and great with Mulligan. Mulligan had a great time during the meet and greet and during his stay with her and her husband! We would definitely book with her again.”
“Sadie really loves staying with Julia and playing with her dogs. Julia sent us three pictures of Sadie while she was there and she was interacting with her dog. Julia sent us a report of all the “business” Sadie did while there and overall kept us informed. We are looking forward to having Sadie stay with Julia again.”
“Mary & her husband Marc couldn't have been a better choice to watch our little rescue Molly. This was the 1st time we left her with anyone so we were a little nervous, but after our meet & greet we felt 100% sure that she would be in good hands. They are very kind & caring people. I would not hesitate to leave Molly with them again when we return to The Villages.”
“Mary was amazing with my dog Bella, who can be anxious in new settings. At our ‘meet and greet’ Mary came up with suggestions to ensure the visit would be successful. Because of Mary’s planning and patience, by the time I left her house Bella was relaxed and laying down. Mary and her calm, beautifully behaved dog made the house an oasis. While I was gone, Mary walked Bella when she became anxious and when I arrived to get her, Bella was completely relaxed. You can see the love that Mary has for animals and how well she reads and understands them. I am already planning to book with Mary again!”
About: I've had pets in my life since I was young. I've taken care of dogs, cats, wolves,snakes and horses. Dogs and cats from youth to end of life care. Animals seem to like and trust me, so much so that my wife calls me the animal whisperer. :) I'm retired and am available every day of the week unless I'm out of town visiting relatives in North Carolina. I do go to the gym several times per week but I'm not gone over an hour each time. I have plenty of places to take pets for walks and there are dog parks close by as well. If your pet requires being crated at night etc that's no problem.
About: Hello, fellow dog parents! I'm an energetic, playful, and deeply compassionate dog lover who believes that dogs are truly life's best companions. Having grown up with dogs and shared every phase of my life with these furry friends, they've become more than pets to me – they're family.

Now, having transitioned from a regular desk job, my time is fully dedicated to caring for your beloved fur babies! I understand the nuances and special needs some dogs might have, as I have experience with diabetic dogs and am adept at administering medications when required.

“Beryl was PERFECTION!!! She is the perfect person to care for one’s loved pets. She is so kind, caring, and loving. Our 2 dogs received excellent care and were given attention throughout their stay. After you meet Beryl you feel like you have known her for years. She deserves the absolute highest possible recommendation.”
About: I'm a retired software developer living in The Villages. I was a pet sitter with a former partner for many years and I've started doing it again now that I have more free time. I love spending time with animals, primarily dogs. My wife and I have two girls, an 8-year-old Boston Terrier and a 5-year-old Boxer and they have a large backyard for running and playing. Our own dogs are the focus of my attention first thing in the morning and your pets would be a part of our pack. Their schedule is my schedule. We have a large backyard that is completely fenced in, so plenty of space to run and play. We always separate the dogs during feeding time, regardless of their disposition and behavioral history. They also enjoy "pack walks" in a very dog friendly neighborhood here in The Villages.
“Maria was awesome. She drove 30 min each way to pick Saga up and drop her off every day. Was always responsive to my questions and concerns and sent updates often pics and messages. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve had dogs off and on since I was about 12 with all sorts of personalities due to fostering. I currently have 2 Australian Sheppards, 8 chickens and 4 cows. I work from home so I am available for many dogs needs. I am used to high energy dogs and one of my Aussies loves to play and run and run some more, so if you have an active dog they will be worn out when you get them home. I also have an older small dog in my family that is blind and deaf so I am used to that as well. I work from home and am available to take out your dogs for breaks quite a lot. I am available 24/7 unless I already have been booked. I have a large fenced in pasture that will be used for the dogs to run around and play in, my personal dogs are high energy so I can promise that most dogs will be worn out when they get home. I am also training for a half marathon in the fall so I welcome walking dogs too.
“Katie (and her family!) are the BESTESSESSESS!! This was the first time we left our puppy with a stranger or ever used Rover so I was a bit anxious. She did a meet n greet with us to relieve some nerves. She sent pictures every day. Each day Riley went she was pulling me out of the car tail wagging running to the front door. I'm so grateful for Katie, we were able to enjoy our vacation and know our puppy was safe and being loved on!!!!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Lake Panasoffkee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 559 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lake Panasoffkee. 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 Panasoffkee 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 559 sitters in Lake Panasoffkee, 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.
