“Amy took great care of Isla! It was our first experience with doggy daycare and I felt comfortable knowing my girl was in good hands while I was away. She sent me cute photos throughout the day which was nice.”
“Dayne is the best! 🤍 She takes amazing care of my two dachshunds and treats them like her own. I love that she sends pictures and videos, it gives me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“I was honestly very anxious leaving Paco for the first time with someone I didn’t personally know. He’s a big dog and can be intimidating at first, even though he’s truly just a big fluff ball. From the very beginning, they were incredibly patient—not just with Paco, but with me as well. I asked a million questions and checked in often, and they were always kind, responsive, and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they look after, and Paco was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive dog sitters.”
“Casey was absolutely phenomenal watching our boxer, Matzah, this past weekend. From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, responsible, and attentive she is with dogs. Matzah came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything, especially with a boxer’s energy level! Casey kept us updated, made us feel completely comfortable while we were out and treated Matzah like her own. It’s not easy finding someone you fully trust with your dog, and we would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional doggie daycare or pet care. We’ll absolutely be using her again!”
“We are on vacation from Maryland and wanted to spend a day snorkeling and going to the Everglades Nathalia was great! We booked two days before Summer stayed for daycare. Summer is not friendly with other dogs so she made sure Summer was the only dog attending that day. Very kind and considerate and sent me pictures when I requested them 💗 Summer came out happy to see us, and she wasn’t panicking, that’s how I knew she took good care of my little dog!”
“Melissa was great in updating me with any traffic delays and made sure that Cinnie was well taken care of. She provided pictures regularly and was flexible with my pick up and drop off times.”
“Janeth was AMAZING! It’s my first time using Rover and my first time trusting a stranger with my precious little boy. She constantly sent me pictures, took care of Oreo like he was her grandson. No worries if your little one takes medicine, she made sure of that too! Oreo loved staying with her. I will absolutely be coming back.”
“Thank you so much for caring for our Husky! , we appreciate your service , thanks for the pictures and videos my Pup was happy and I liked that! The yard is beautiful 👌I will book you again!”
“Olga was great with Charlie. She sent a video when he had a breathing episode (common with his breed) to make sure he was OK and quickly informed us all was well once he caught his breath. She communicated very quickly and throughout the day with updates and photos. Would highly recommend!”
“Nancy is awesome! My dog Lily loves spending time with her and her husband Diego, whether it is for boarding or daycare. They truly care about animals and I feel so at ease when Lily is with them. Plus they take the most amazing photos of Lily! ?”
“Nora is wonderful. It was our first time leaving our puppy with a sitter so we were very cautious. We did a meet and greet and it was clear that she is both experienced and conscientious. She is flexible, easy to work with, and seems willing to provide whatever you need. Lots of pics to settle new parents’ nerves and checked in to make sure we ask her any questions we might have. We look forward to developing a long-term relationship with her.”
“Hailey was so sweet and was quick to respond when we needed a sitter for Mo while my wife attended a wedding. She was super flexible and made sure I was comfortable before leaving him with the other pups. Would use her again if we’re ever back in the area!”
“Nanny Agreed to take our dog at the last minute she was very easy to communicate with and sent several pictures throughout the day to show us what our puppy was doing This was our first time using Rover and our dog had an excellent first day. I would recommend Nanny to anyone”
“Mariya and her partner were amazing! They took great care of Hans. My dog is a little scared of strangers, but Mariya knew exactly how to approach him and make him feel comfortable.”
“She was so great!!! My day was so frustrating & I just needed a little help for a few hours and she was very quick & convenient! I will use her from now on! Thank you again Graciel❤️❤️❤️”

Shae’s first time ever being at a Day Care ever, Melissa had to go way beyond the required to get her under control with the other dogs. She was totally out of control, barking, until Melissa got her to calm down and socialize with the others. I’m so thankful. Hopefully, Shae can make friends. I will send her again and see how it goes.

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lakes by the Bay on Rover is $26.75 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Lakes by the Bay 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 2,620 sitters in Lakes by the Bay, 88% 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.
