“Pat is amazing! I was looking for a sitter to not only watch my new fur baby while I was out of town, but also someone who does daycare. When reaching out to Pat she started the process with a meet-and-greet to ensure our fur babies were a good fit, I really appreciated that extra step. I sent my baby to Pat yesterday for daycare for the very first time, and Pat made the experience amazing! She sent me pictures and videos to quell my nerves and sadness for having to leave my baby while I went to work for a 12-hour shift. I felt like she cared for my Miss Lucille like it was her own dog. Speaking of her own dog, Pat has the sweetest fur baby, Gilly. Gilly is a gentle giant who is so patient with Lucille, as Lucille is still learning to play with fur friends. I am 100% satisfied and thrilled to have found Pat as a sitter for my baby, and I already have my next two sittings booked with her.”
“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!”
“Olivia gave us a good impression right away. She was caring and confident with the way she handled Gucci. We received pictures and update during her stay. She had fun with Olivia’s dogs. We won’t hesitate to book with Olivia again.”
“They took GREAT care of Slinky while I was out of town. They sent me pictures of my fur baby and how he was doing throughout his stay with them. Would rate 10/10 if I could, will definitely be booking again in the future! ?”
About: Hi! I'm a reliable and compassionate pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I believe every pet deserves patience, attention, and plenty of affection while their family is away. Whether it's dogs or cats, I provide personalized care based on their unique personalities and needs. I'm available every day and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. From walks, playtime, feeding, and medication (if needed) to cuddles and companionship, I'll treat your pets like they're my own. You can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your beloved pets! My schedule is very open so I can work with what is needed from you! Overnights, multiple days, or quick trips, I will respond quickly and allow time for you to decide what you need!! I am willing to learn how you would like me to care for your pets to ensure your animals and you, feel comfortable and provided for!
About: We adopted our first pups in 2004 and cared for them for 18 pup-snuggled years. During that time, and since then, we have rescued, fostered and adopted animals of all kinds to include chickens, ducks and a pig named Kevin Bacon! Currently, we're home to Guinevere, the mild-mannered, 6 year-old rescued mutt. We do have an 11-year-old hooman "puppy" who is just as loving and respectful of animals as we are. We will love and care for your fur-babies as if they were our very own. We are home almost all day, every day, so your pet will never be alone. I homeschool our son, and my husband works from home. Your pet will have ample opportunities to play outside in our 1/2 acre back yard. Our neighborhood is very quiet with houses situated on ~acre lots. We have neighbors with dogs, but they usually just run over to the fence to say hello and then go about their business. In our home, your fur-babies can roam freely, and they will have access to our 1/2, partially shaded, completely fenced-in back yard as often as they need. If your dog is one who prefers walks, our peaceful neighborhood has lots of places to explore; there is a nice park 1/2 mile away where they can sniff around where all of the turtles and ducks like to hang out. Pups who stay with us overnight are welcome to stay in their crate (if that's what they prefer), anywhere in the house, and, likely, on one of our beds.
“Dan was amazing! I chose him because he was careful and wanted to meet Nakita before accepting the booking. She was comfortable with him almost immediately, and he was exactly what I was looking for! Highly recommend the meet-and-greet for anyone who watches your pups. Thanks Dan for taking great care of our girl🥰”
“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.”
“Mark took our request on very short notice and took really good care of Beanie. Beanie can be a little anxious around other dogs, but he handled it really well and made him feel comfortable. He had a great time playing and completely dozed off after coming home, which means he had lots of fun!”
“Brittany was absolutely fantastic both before and throughout our first day of boarding with Hoola. There was great communication with a meet and greet and eventual day of fun with Brittany and Hugo (who is truly a gem of a dog.) Hoola was clearly very well cared for and loved in our absence. Thanks for making this experience so positive and we look forward to booking with you again soon. Definitely would highly recommend.”
“Wonderful family. Our Turtle was spoiled with their love and attention (they even brushed her out and made her a wonderful fluff ball. We will hope Turtle can visit her new friends again.”
“Debra did an excellent job watching my little girl Nina. She’s very good with animals and clearly loves them. Nina was very happy staying with Debra. Nina is a bit shy at first but opened up very quickly to Debra.”
“Highly recommend Kristen! She is attentive and caring with our doggies. Provides updates often, has a backyard so they can run around, and spends lots of time with them. Definitely will contact Kristen again.”
About: I always say ..."if a person doesn't love a dog then we cannot be friends." Gated community with great walking streets and no traffic. When your pet is we with me in my home then they are home as well. They are welcome to be on the furniture and sleep in the bed if they like to do that. I can also have your crate if they need that as well. There is plenty of room. We also have an enclosed very secure outdoor Lanai. I have had many pets all of my life and love them all. My last dog was with me for over sixteen years. He was perfect in every way to me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends real soon! Cats...what can I say? I adore cats they are so cool and so much fun. One look and they got you. They can be so sweet and loving and then have you rolling on the floor laughing from just one look. I really believe cats truly understand language. I have plenty of time for the attention and love your pet needs. I am home full time which gives me time to cater to your pets every need. I live in a gated private community which is very safe for your pets and very little traffic on lovely walking streets with beautiful lakes to sit by.
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: My wife and I have been pet sitting for several years. My clients have all become part of the family. I genuinely love being around animals, going for walks and spending time with animals. We were dog sitting previously in Canada while living there, we would be happy to provide you with additional references. We have the friendliest 7 year old Irish setter who absolutely loves being around people and dogs (He spends a lot of his time at Fred Popp dog park running in circles for an hour). He loves both large and small dogs and he does not seem to care if they are female or male. When pet sitting at your home, my dog will stay home with his other family members . We work from home so were always around. We love walking and being outdoors so your pet will get lots of exercise (I can track the pets walks on my phone and send updates and photos so you know your buddy is having a great time). We will always discuss the pets needs before caring for them as every pet is different and deserves the staycation that's best for them. We will discuss the pets' needs with the owner and come up with a plan that they are comfortable. (I'll do my best to stick to the same routine they have at home )

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Palm Bay on Rover is $32.7 per day (as of August 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 Palm 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 396 sitters in Palm 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.
