“Jorge & Osvaldo offer a 5 star day car 👌 They are friendly and professional! Today, it was our dog’s first all day daycare and they LOVED IT! When we got to the front door, they went right in and based on many pictures we revived throughout the day, they seemed to be enjoying their stay! We already have a second booking and I am sure we will use them over and over again!”
“My goodness. We needed day care for our two pups and, boy, were we pleased with Alexander and Dorys. They were not only communicative, friendly, obvious dog lovers, but took such great care of our boys. It was quite clear they were interacting with our pups, the entire day! We look forward to using them, again. (Especially since the boys can't stop talking about all the fun they had.) We are very grateful.”
“Hugo had a wonderful time spending the day with this caring and loving family! He was so excited there were kids for him to play with. Jacqueline is very sweet and reassuring when I was a little nervous that he’d be too excited but we took his zoomies as his sign of comfort and confidence. We will definitely book again when we visit the area again soon!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs from young to elderly, and taking care of large groups of dogs. I will always take care of your pets just as if they were my own. You can rest easy when you are not able to be with your dog. I have walked and taken care of dogs of all sizes, and my own dog is a very energetic dog who likes to pull on a leash, so I understand the concerns some people may have with someone else walking their dog, and I will always make sure your dog is safe and secure with me. You can relax knowing that your furry friend is in good hands. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility and can offer plenty of attention and exercise for all your furry friends throughout the day. I try to care for your pets the same way you do, whether that is in my home or yours. Your pets’ safety and happiness is the priority!
About: You could probably say I enjoy being around dogs more than most people. I consider dogs angels. I love to spoil them. My two girls are very spoiled. I have always had a dog. At one time I had 4 large dogs. I know what distress looks like and I know animal safeguarding. My husband and I have a deep bond with animals. We will care for your dog just as if they were ours. I’m a retired teacher and I love and truly understand dogs. I will love your pet as if he/she were my own. I’ve done all kinds of medications including kidney care involving injections and oral medicine. **please take note of our cancellation policy. It is explained in a chart within our picture gallery. Please understand this is my job and giving me a 3-day advance may help me fill that spot. Thank you for understanding. I have a fenced in yard and a safe place to walk dogs. I have two female Shitzus and they are very very friendly. I have had puppies, teenage dogs, and seniors. We only care for one families’ dog(s) at a time so they receive the care they deserve. We will send lots of pictures of your dog during our time with us and we will always follow your care instructions.
“Gloria took wonderful care of my puppy after his procedure. She was gentle, attentive, and made sure he felt safe and loved. I can tell he had a great time and was in very good hands. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she gave me—highly recommend her!”
About: I've had dogs and cats all my life and now that I'm retired I want to share cuddles and love with your pet! My friends and neighbors have entrusted their pets to me for years and I would like the privilege of taking care of your furry baby. I love both seniors and puppies and have had experience with administering medication if your pet has medical needs. A I'm retired so I'll be home almost all the time. A short shopping or doctor's visit would be the only exception. Your pet would not be unattended for more than 2 or 3 hours. I have a fenced area in my yard that is accessible directly from my home. The pets are never left outside unattended and they have full access to my home.
“We were visiting Florida from NY and needed a dog sitter for half the day. My pup was well taken care of and Linda sent me lots of pictures. I would definitely use her again if I was in the area. Thank you, Linda!!!”
“Jaclyn and David are amazing! It was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and they made me feel super comfortable! Their dogs are also super playful and helped tire out my dog while I was at work, so I was able to have a peaceful night!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience with dogs and cats. I have worked in Rescue. I have raised, fostered and nurtured animals back to health. I have a lot of experience hands on with bully breeds. Specifically French bulldogs. I am a stay at home dog mom I have a safe fenced in turfed backyard for my dogs. I have been told it’s a dog’s paradise. I cater to the needs of each animal here. I allow the dogs to come in and out all day long from outside. I have a doggy door that goes into our fenced in turf area. If I run an errand I load up the dogs too if they want to go for a ride. Nothing is really off limits. With exception to fighting.
“It was my first time meeting Gabriella, and she went above and beyond my expectations. So kind, professional, and communicative. She wanted to know all relevant information about my dog which showed how much she cared about giving her the best care possible! Mona will be back to play again in the future, thank you!!”
About: I am an animal lover! What sets me apart from other sitters is that I am not here for the money but for your babies to have a great experience while you are away. Have had dogs and cats for most of my adulthood. After my last furbaby passed, I decided instead of getting another one, I would share my love with other people's fur babies. I would love to take care of your 4-legged family members and treat your babies as my own. My love and care are endless. I can stay and play with your beloved furbabies all day 7 days a week. Since I work from home, your cat/dog is guaranteed to have companionship around the clock, and I believe dogs and cats are happiest when humans accompany them and show them affection, and play with them. I do prefer your child/dog/cat to come with his/her own food because it's one less thing for them to adjust. I do however have treats and dog food if needed. I will adhere to your instructions to administer food and/or medicine. I work from home currently. So I should be around your fur babies 24/7 except for grocery or eating out when pets are boarding with me or house-sitting for you. I go to Church on Sunday mornings if the stay goes on Sunday. If you need me to drop in at your place or walk your dog, they can be arranged multiple times a day. I don't have pets or children so no worries about your fur friend fitting in. I will attend to your furball without distractions since I only take a single furbaby each time. I live next to a man-made lake, so I don't have a fenced-in yard, I always walk dogs around our neighboring park. So, no accidents should ever happen in this household indoors or outdoors. If I care for your babies at your place, I always respect your property and leave the house in great shape.
“This was mine and Gizmo’s first pet sitter experience. Joanne was very patient with all my questions. She is very calm and caring and kept Gizmo on his usual schedule for the day. She also sent messages and a picture to let me know how he was doing.”
“Mark made Hudson feel right at home and like he was part of the pack. He made me feel at ease when I dropped him off as sometimes Hudson can be a bit persnickety and I left knowing he would have control of the situation and Hudson fit right in! Would recommend and book again!”
“Dawn and Kenneth are a dream come true! I recently moved to the area and am SO happy I found them. They took wonderful care of my little Lily and I will definitely hire them again. Dawn sent an update with pics that made my heart so happy! Thank you both so much. Lily is looking forward to her next stay with you! :)”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals, including training service dogs and working professionally as a groomer. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, different breeds, and pets requiring extra patience, attention, and specialized care. I am currently home full time after returning from deployment, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have plenty of flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I offer both in-home pet sitting and boarding in my home. For boarding, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship. I follow each pet’s normal feeding, medication, and daily routines as closely as possible. For in-home visits, I respect the pet’s familiar environment and maintain their usual schedule. With over 10 years of experience, including service dog training and professional grooming, I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments.
“Lily was very happy to go to Aaron's home three times when we were traveling through Hollywood, Florida! The second time we took her, she walked right into his home with her tail wagging! He sent us daily pictures. Aaron is very responsive with nice manners in his communication. We would definitely use Aaron again”
“Dusty had an amazing time with his new friends! Tamara was amazing! Lots of pictures, videos, very communicative and friendly. Dusty will definitely get back to see her friends Maverick & Ollie again!”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and I love animals. Previously I’ve had many dogs and cats and I’ve even worked at the volunteer animal shelter for 3 years. I’m currently retired and living alone and looking for something to do about once or twice a day for four to five days per week. Also can do boarding of one dog at a time. I walk dogs twice per day and feed dogs on a schedule. When I care for other people animals I look at notes they’ve left me and take care of their pets the way that they want their pet taken care of.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Malabar is $33 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $48 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 395 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Malabar. 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 Malabar 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.
As of November 2026, there are 395 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of FL. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
