“This is our first time getting a sitter for our dog and I’m so glad we came across Pat. She’s amazing and dependable. My dog loved her stay and it won’t be the last time. Glad we found her!”
“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!”
“This was puppy Mango’s first outing with a sitter and we couldn’t be more pleased with Christie’s level of care, love and attention. Mango, at 4 mos, Is def a hand full and we’re si glad to have chose.Christie (and she us) for his first pet care experience. Will def be using Christie again - she is wonderful!”
“Cessna was excited when she met Paul, and he took her for a walk as soon as I dropped her off. I really liked that. Paul sent me lots of pictures of her throughout the day, and I felt good knowing she was safe and comfortable while I was away. I also loved that she was the only dog in his care.”
“We could not have had a better first experience with a dog sitter! Our dog is 3 years old and has never been away from us or kenneled so we were looking for a sitter that would be as close and comfortable to home as possible. Darcy and her husband are that and more and put us at ease right away! I highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again for an extended stay next month!”
“Today was Luca's first day with Nytza and her family. He was very calm when I picked him up and fell asleep as soon as we came home so, I will assume that he had a very active and happy day. I was extremely appreciative for the pictures and video that were sent. Luca will be boarding with Nytza and her family later this week so today was mainly a trial run to ensure that he played well with their dog and small children. The communication throughout this process was great. It's comforting to know that Luca had a good day but even more comforting to know that you and your family liked having him. I am sure that he will have a great time with you guys while we are away.”
“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!”
“Dominique did an amazing job minding our girl a few times while we were in the area. On day two she was excitedly waiting at her door wagging her tail! Dominique was kind and really spent time getting to know Pepsi, we really appreciate her and would not hesitate to highly recommend her!”
“My Chiweenie Brandi just spent the day at Doggy day care with Jami. Brandi was a rescue and is very timid and does not do well in new situations. Jami made her "feel at home" and when Jami sent me a picture during the day, I could tell Brandi was happy! Jami was amazing and I hope Brandi is a regular visitor there! Thank you, Jami!”
“Had a great experience with Olivia! They were super communicative, sending me photos and updates of my dog playing and relaxing. It was clear that my dog had a blast and was well taken care of. When I picked him up he was a happy, tired dog, and I'll definitely be booking with them again. Highly recommend!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and other animals almost my whole life! I've watched dogs for friends and family, and dogs of all sizes! I love each and every pet I meet, and have a beloved little dog of my own! I believe each and every pet has their own personality, and each deserve their own unique love, care, and quality time. From big, small, old and young, I will take care of your pet as if they were my very own! I am currently not employed in a work setting, but do work on my side business as a crocheter part time, so I will have plenty of time for your fur babies! My schedule is very flexible, so I can work with your schedule too! I have a partially fenced yard, with one small side not fenced, so taking dogs out on a leash is no problem for me! In home there are no breakable items within reach of any sized pet, and no harmful items within reach either. My super comfy couch and bed is pet friendly so your fur babies can rest their heads wherever they would like! If going for a walk, I live on a road that stretches almost a mile long with a sidewalk on both sides. If in the clients home, the house will be respected and any notes or rules will be followed (ex. House codes and gate codes, potty breaks outside, walks, any needs of the pet). If a pet needs medication, assistance or any other specific care, I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is healthy and happy!
“Anna was so great with Sofia, she gave me a very detailed status of her and helped little Sofia socialize better. She also sent multiple videos and photos of her. I can tell that Anna really cares about animals and she knows what she’s doing. Will definitely come back 😊”
“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.”
“Amazing experience! I have two labs that have a lot of energy, and it she made sure to take them on long walks to get the energy out and send updated pictures! Will definitely be coming back!”
About: I’ve always took care of my best friends dog since I got here. I can shower, feed, play and spend time with them. Take care of them as my own dog. I have my own job it’s my timing whenever I can take care of the dogs I make my timing for them. And on here it’s scheduled. I love them as my own. I take them out a lot and play with them. Let them in my furniture and anywhere around my house. My neighbor has a puppy and she always comes to my house so they can be together and make friends.

While studying AI courses from home, I am available throughout the day to provide plenty of love, attention, and care for your pup. I have a fully fenced in yard for safe playtime, and a sweet dog named Gosling who loves making new friends. Your fur baby will have great company while you're away.

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Palm Shores on Rover is $29.97 per day (as of July 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 Shores 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 465 sitters in Palm Shores, 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.
