“My dogs had a better vacation than I did! Sanjay was amazing. They went on walks and played outside a lot. Sanjay treated my dogs like I treat them. Great experience!”
“Haylie was absolutely amazing! My fur babe was shown the utmost of care and love! I was always kept up to date with pictures, which was awesome! Definitely will be a repeat customer!”
“Fantastic! Murphy does not usually do well with dogs bigger than him, or too many dogs at once, however, his stay with Sylvia may have changed that, not sure what she did but my boy was very happy hanging out with the other dogs and made his stay a pleasant experience for us all. Highly recommend Sylvia if you need a sitter for your fur baby.”
“If you love your dogs and want to go out of town and feel absolutely worry-free about whether or not they’re being loved and looked after, these guys are the best. My dogs don’t let me pee on my own or leave a room w out them hot on my trail and they ran right to them like I wasn’t even there. They smelled and looked amazing when we picked them up and were happy as could be. They were made Christmas stockings and goody bags and even a homemade Christmas feast to enjoy. Above and beyond doesn’t begin to cover the effort and care put into our pets while we are away and I will never run out of amazing things to say about these two. I can’t be anymore grateful for finding them and my labs love them so much, I truly had tears in my eyes writing this. Thank you so much for loving our goofballs and providing such peace of mind for us on vacation. I am so blessed to have found them!”
“I had a great experience with Desirlee!! My dog deals with anxiety (especially when I am gone), and Desirlee was patient and loving with her. It was a great feeling to know my pup was being taken care of and loved on. I will definitely book again for future needs and would recommend!”
“Elijah excellent this was the second time he watched Max was so understanding when I had to extend my days. Kept me updated with Max. I will have him sit with Max again.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with our senior dog, Charlee 🤍 Leaving an older dog can be stressful, but she made the entire experience feel so easy and reassuring. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive to Charlee’s needs (medications), making sure she was comfortable, well cared for, and getting all the extra love senior pups deserve. We really appreciated the updates and knowing she was in such kind, capable hands. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I would 100% trust Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you for taking such great care of our sweet girl 🐾”
“Jacob and Cheyenne were awesome and provided a stress free boarding experience for both my pup and i. I received a ton of pictures of my boy running around having the time of his life. They both listened and ensured that my dog’s needs were met and loved him like he was their own. Drax will definitely be returning!”
“Whitney is kind and responsive and took wonderful care of our dogs. She sent lots of pictures and videos while we were away along with frequent updates. We will absolutely have Whitney watch our dogs again!”
“Zarria did she great job. Good communication throughout their stay and lots of pictures! My boys loved the morning walls and were well taken care of. Thank you so much!”
“Our dog loves staying with Nuttawadee K. He cried when he saw where we were and couldn't get out of the car fast enough! I received lots of updates with pictures and never had to worry if he was doing ok!”
“Cassandra was wonderful with Polly! She took such great care of her and was incredibly communicative the entire time. I loved getting all the pictures and updates. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Polly was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Cassandra to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup, and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Jodi and the care she gave my dog, Evy. She kept me updated throughout the day with photos and messages about all the fun activities they enjoyed. Jodi truly created a safe, loving environment for dogs, and I felt completely at ease knowing Evy was in such great hands.”
“Patrigna was very flexible and accommodating after she agreed to take Ford. Ford seemed to have a good time there, which we noticed thanks to Patrigna's photo and video updates during his stay. She asked good questions to understand Ford and his routine's and ensured that there wouldn't be any major disruptions.”
“We are very happy with the care and the time he spent with Max he’s very attentive and you can tell he’s really serious and enjoys being a pet sitter. He sent pictures and kept us informed about how Max was adjusting We would highly recommend him”
“Janet and Chuck were great! Our dog was well taken care of. Janet was very communicative and sent multiple pictures during our time away. They were very accommodating in setting up a pre-visit even when my schedule changed a couple of times. If necessary they will even keep their dogs separated if your dog may be a little a skiddish. I would definitely let our Joey stay again.”
“I didn’t worry about Jax while in her care. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and I would recommend her to anyone. She accommodated Jax on short notice and gave regular updates.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeside
Anna is an AMAZING sitter! She was so kind and helpful! She gave my Bijou all the attention and love she needed, responded promptly, updated me often with pics and video, and paid close attention to her food and medication needs. She is also a talented groomer and my baby got the cutest hairdo while she was there! Highly recommend! Thank you Anna and fam!
I needed a sitter for quite a long time, two and half weeks to be specific and I had no one available to watch my fur baby. I looked into Rover and was very drawn to Sanja's profile. She not only showed pictures of dogs on her bio but also pictures of her family and home. It looked like a true vacation spot for dogs. I did a meet up with Sanja and had an immediate connection with her. I felt very confident that Sanja would truly take care of my baby. While I was away, Sanja sent me pictures and videos every day! I saw how much she was loved and that allowed me to truly enjoy my vacation with such peace of mind. THANK YOU, Sanja!!
Andre took incredible care of my puppy Disco and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! My puppy bonded with him right away, and you can tell he genuinely loves/understands dogs. He kept me updated with photos and videos which made me feel completely at ease and when I picked Disco up he was clean, relaxed, and clearly had a great time ! Andre is patient, attentive, and treats the dogs he watches like they’re his own. I would absolutely trust him again and will definitely be booking with him in the future. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your pet and gives them lots of attention and love, Andre is the person to book !
Janet and Chuck were great! Our dog was well taken care of. Janet was very communicative and sent multiple pictures during our time away. They were very accommodating in setting up a pre-visit even when my schedule changed a couple of times. If necessary they will even keep their dogs separated if your dog may be a little a skiddish. I would definitely let our Joey stay again.

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 Lakeside home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Lakeside.
<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 Lakeside 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
