About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oakland Park
Our dog stays with Emilie whenever we’re out of town and always comes home happy! We love getting the photo updates she sends while we’re away, and it’s so nice knowing we have someone we trust to take such great care of him. We’re so grateful and would highly recommend her!
Arlen and Charlie had a great time together! He provided photos showing the good time they had watching TV together and playing ball. Arlen is very caring, attentive, and definitely loves dogs! I know Charlie is in good hands with him. I have booked another stay with Arlen for next month!
We had a great experience with Janel & Wanderley! Sunday was well cared for and comfortable. Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the attention and care given throughout the stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing Sunday was in good hands. We would definitely book again and highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Diana! Our two girls spent the weekend with her and had the best time. She was wonderful about sending us updates and photos throughout the weekend, which gave us so much peace of mind. She took them on walks, kept them entertained, and made sure they were happy and well cared for the entire time. It was so nice knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We’re so happy we found Diana and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and attentive sitter!
Ali was absolutely wonderful with my dog! This was my first time leaving him with someone and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. When I picked him up he looked so calm, happy, and completely at ease — which told me everything I needed to know about how well he was cared for. Ali kept me updated throughout his entire stay with photos and videos which gave me such peace of mind. I will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Maria was AMAZING! I was so nervous leaving my baby Onyx with a sitter for the first time but Maria and her family were so wonderful. She treated Onyx like part of her family and I could tell Onyx was so happy and loved during his time there. I was able to do a meet and greet beforehand which eased my mind and Maria sent multiple pictures and videos every day to keep me updated. Overall so happy with her services! Don’t hesitate to book Maria!!
Daniela was wonderful! She took great care of my senior dog, Toby during his two-night stay and kept me updated throughout the day with regular messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind. I especially appreciated how attentive she was to my instructions and how carefully she followed them. It was reassuring to know Toby was in such good hands. I would absolutely trust Daniela with Toby again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter! Thank you Daniela!!!
Highly recommend Steven! I needed someone to care for Brady for 3 weeks and I was a bit nervous leaving my pup with a new sitter for that long. Steven was extremely warm and friendly in his communication and fully reassured me Brady was in good hands. He provided me with daily updates and photos throughout and was flexible with my pick up and drop off times. Couldn’t have worked out better.
Carmel was outstanding! She took such good care of Speedy, was extremely thoughtful and considerate of her needs, took excellent care of my baby, sent photos, covered her in her favorite blanket and took her on walks. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a caring and loving sitter, she is the best!
My regular sitter backed out right before a work trip and Shannon took us on short notice. She was quick to respond and scheduled a meet-and-greet to make sure my two dogs would get along with hers, which I really appreciated. I received lots of photos and regular updates, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I think it was good for them to have the company of another doggy friend to keep them mentally stimulated. I'd definitely book her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Oakland Park is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $65 per night. 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 of October 2026, there are 4,568 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oakland Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Oakland Park can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Oakland Park home-away-from-home, 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 Oakland Park.
Tip: 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 Oakland Park 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 , 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 .
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.
