“Yanexis is the best pet sitter, she loves animals i never worry while I was away she's has excellent communication her place is well kept i would definitely.be going back”
“Julie is amazing! I am a very demanding customer & she's followed every request with great detail! She went above and beyond his care requirements by cooking for him & ensuring he was following his new strict diet. She also took the time to play with him a lot! I absolutely love that because I often times am too busy with work to play with him. Julie also kept sending me tons of pics & videos (which I also love because I want to see how my baby is doing). You can't go wrong with Julie, she's the best!”
“Our dog Eggie loves staying with Jeffrey! He is wagging his tail as soon as he realizes we are pulling up to Jeffrey’s home. Jeffrey provides us with regular updates and photos and we are so glad to have found a place for Eggie to stay where he is comfortable while we travel. Highly recommend :-)”
“I cannot recommend her enough! Leaving my dog with someone else is never easy for me, but she made the entire experience stress free from start to finish. She was attentive, reliable, communicative and genuinely cared for my dog as if she were her own. I received updates, photos and could tell that my pup was happy, comfortable, and well loved while I was away.”
“Eric was awesome with Argo! He sent me pictures and communicated with me throughout my entire trip to let me know how Argo was doing. I’ll definitely be booking with him again on my next trip. Thank you Eric!!!”
“Thank you again for taking such good care of my baby! The regular updates and pictures were much appreciated! Jupiter looked great when I arrived to pick him up. He looked very healthy, happy, well-fed and clean! He seemed to have fun with his new friends!”
“From the moment we met Michelle, we knew Scarlett would be in great hands — but she truly exceeded every expectation! Michelle was incredibly kind, attentive, and patient with our girl, especially since Scarlett happened to be in heat during her stay. That can be a tricky time, but Michelle handled everything with such professionalism, care, and compassion. She sent us thoughtful updates every single day — complete with adorable photos that showed just how comfortable and happy Scarlett was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that she was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved and understood. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like family, and that’s exactly what Michelle did. We can’t thank her enough for all the extra care and attention she provided. Scarlett came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her time with Michelle. We feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely be booking with Michelle again in the future. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly dedicated and compassionate sitter!”
“Andy and his dad did a great job again taking care of Oscar. They kept me updated throughout the time with pictures and didn’t hesitate to reach out with questions. Oscar came back very happy :)”

“I loved how Sebastian and His Family , took care of Ramona . They sent me pictures all the time , and the way Ramona looked in the pictures and how they expressed me she behaved it made me feel confident and hopefully for the next boarding, Ramona can stay with them again”
“I needed someone responsible for taking care of my dog while I had to go on a trip for a whole week, I spoke with some pet sitters, but none of them fit my needs. Then, I spoke with Johanna, at first I was a bit hesitant because she looked so young, and I wanted someone more grown up, but as long as I started talking with her she showed that she was very mature and responsible. Also, the reviews confirmed that; we set a meet and greet, and the other day we reunited, as soon as I met her I knew that she could take care of my dog, she was sweet, receptionist, and she listened to everything that I said, there was a moment when my dog was running through the yard while we were talking and he started to slobber, she noticed and she grabbed a little towel and she cleaned him up as he was her own dog, that assured me that he will be very well cared. She gave updates every day, and she followed all the instructions that I gave. Additionally, my dog was allowed to sleep with her and her little sister in their room, which was also very important to me, because he sleeps in my daughter's room, and that made him feel at home, the grandma is also sweet, she is a very family person and trustworthy. Bolt had fun, he played constantly with the other dogs that belong to the house, even when I was a bit worried about this because Bolt is the only dog at home, but I can say that he had so much fun. The house has an enormous yard where they can have plenty of great fun with security. I highly recommend Johanna if you want your dog to be well cared for. I will count on her next time for sure.”
“She’s amazing. Received updates daily. My little guy was very well taken care of and she even spoiled him with chicken. Can’t possibly ask for more 100% will be using again.”
“I met with Natalya before Hand and immediately I felt very safe and confident to Leave Bonny with her. She is very knowledgeable about Kittens 🐈⬛ , which I was hesitant at first since they can be challenging. I was gone 3 weeks and she sent me updates and little notes so I knew he was in good hands. Now that I am back he actually misses her - I can tell . She gets 5 stars from me for sure and also Bonny when I leave again. Thank You Natalya very much !”
“Veronica took excellent care of our doggie! Veronica was always in communication with us and sent us several videos and pics to keep us in the loop. We appreciate the close attention she probided to our doggie. We highly recommend her and will definetly contact her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Opa-locka
AMAZING! She was the best sitter for my pup. I was super nervous leaving him behind but she was so patient with him and welcomed him with so much love he had a great time and not to mention she was super responsive and sent pics and videos everyday. 10/10 recommend and will make sure to book her everytime we go on vacation.
Nathalie was beyond amazing with my Lulu! It was our first time meeting her and she went above and beyond with her incredible care, her updates and her flexibility. I will 1000% be recommending her to all my friends and family and look forward to utilizing her services again soon!
I took a chance on a new sitter, and I'm so glad I did! Matteo and his family made us feel right at home. They were very communicative, sending me videos and photos throughout the day. The highlight was watching my dog, Levi, become best friends with Matteo’s daughter. They came in as strangers and left as great friends. I highly recommend them—10/10!
This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had with someone caring for my dog! Melissa and her family went above and beyond in every possible way. They were incredibly supportive, attentive, and truly treated my dog like part of their own family. They followed all feeding schedules perfectly, made sure he was comfortable at all hours, and he had an amazing time playing with their dog, they became instant buddies! Melissa also provided daily updates with photos and videos, which gave me complete peace of mind and showed just how happy and well cared for he was. She made sure my dog felt welcomed, loved, and safe from day one. If a 10 star rating were available, I would give it without hesitation that’s how exceptional and attentive she was. If you’re considering leaving your dog with anyone, I truly cannot stress this enough: Melissa is, by miles, the best option you could ever choose.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Opa-locka is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $49 per night.

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 Opa-locka 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 Opa-locka 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 Opa-locka.
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 Opa-locka 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.
