“Jennifer was communicative with caring for our baby Luna. I can tell she and Olive had a great day playing together! We definitely recommend! Your pup will be in great hands with Jennifer.”
“AJ has been wonderful with our dog Josie! He has been so patient and kind with her and let her go at her own pace. She has had several visits and is getting more comfortable each time. AJ, Trish, and Goose are tremendous hosts. AJ is the bomb! I strongly recommend him and his family for doggie daycare.”
“Heather was able to watch my two dogs at last minute's notice! I am boarding them for 10 days in May, so this was a good trial to see how everything went. They seemed quite happy to be with Heather and the afternoon was a success! Thank you so much Heather!”
“Fabulous week for Juno our Alaskan Husky mix! She was so settled and happy with Denise and her Border Collie Frankie! Such peace of mind knowing Juno was in good hands and happy. Denise is a wonderful person. She understands dogs and she totally gets dog owners worries too. Would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Patrick was great with our pup Scout! He had timely responses, was able to accommodate my work schedule, and was diligent about taking her out for walks. Would highly recommend him!”
“We were visiting from out of town, and I was a bit nervous to use a new Rover sitter. But our experience with Athena & Richi was wonderful and peaceful from start to finish! They took great care of Sadie who can be very nervous when meeting new people and especially other dogs. Athena helped make the drop off and introductions very smooth, and I received photos and videos of Sadie romping around their yard peacefully with the pack within the hour. We will definitely use them again!”
About: I have cared for dogs for friends and family while they are away on vacation, making sure they are fed, walked, played with, and given plenty of love and attention. I absolutely love animals and have two dogs of my own, a Golden Retriever and a Beagle. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and my two daughters love animals just as much as I do. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I spend most of my time at home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on my schedule. I truly enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their families are away. I have a loving home with two friendly dogs, a Golden Retriever and a Beagle. They are very social and have always been comfortable around other dogs. I also have a friendly cat who has always lived with dogs and is comfortable around them. My home has a spacious backyard where pets can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. I provide a clean, caring, supervised environment and treat every pet like part of my own family.
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 11 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a mini Goldendoodle, and my roommate has a medium Goldendoodle, so I’m very familiar with their energy, personalities, and daily care needs. I’m reliable, hardworking, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or attentive care while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for every step of the way! I work fully from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’m able to be attentive to their needs. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks to help them get exercise. Every dog is different, so I’m happy to match their energy level and routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.
“Willow loved staying with Beata and her family and meeting new friends and spending a lot of time outside running in her large backyard! Beata was very responsive and sent lots of pictures!”
“She’s absolutely amazing!! If she’s available, I choose Torie every time!! She takes great care of your baby and reaches out throughout the day with pics or updates to ease your anxiety! Couldn’t recommend her more!! <3”

“Laura was absolutely amazing!! Was able to take harbor last minute and was so accommodating! We will definitely use her again:) harbor came home so tired she had a great time running with her pup :) she kept me updated throughout the day which I loved too! So Thankyou Laura :)”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing taking care of Benny. He was very accommodating to my needs for daycare, he kept in touch with me, sent me updates and photos. I love that his entire family is warm and welcoming. His own dog is a perfect playmate for Benny. He matched his energy and was so playful and sweet. I love that Benny was allowed to be on the couch and also hang out with Shannon and sleep by his feet at this desk. I really feel like my baby was taken care of and I trust Shannon with his care 100% and can say this family is perfect situation if you want your dog looked after all day. He also puts tracking on their collar to insure your dog doesn’t get lost if by some chance they got out which I don’t even see happening . The kids are a wonderful addition to helping keep the dogs entertained. You can’t ask for more. I am very grateful to have found Shannon here on Rover and I can rest easy knowing my baby is in good hands when I can’t be there.”
“We loved having Olga watch our puppy, Penelope. Penelope is highly energetic and Olga had no issue matching her energy. We had a last minute engagement and Olga was there for us at 9pm the night before. It was amazing.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm Harbor
During our initial meet and greet, I knew instantly that Jenny would be a caring and knowledgeable sitter. We booked a daycare visit and she was quickly responsive with our communications. We found the Drop off and pick up to be efficient and detailed with the day's activities. We enjoyed receiving the photos and Jenny's comments. We look forward to another opportunity for Caesar to stay with Jenny!
If you’re looking through people to watch your loved fur baby just stop here and ask Torie if she’s available. I’ve had my chihuahua for 14 years almost and he is my best friend. It terrifies me knowing someone could hurt him. Torie immediately was the most comforting person. Thank you so much. Cookie came home happy and relaxed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Palm Harbor on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of September 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 Harbor 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 2,187 sitters in Palm Harbor, 84% 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.
