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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Updated version: Jessica took care of our Pomeranian, Zorro, during the day for two weeks while I was traveling and my husband was working long hours, and she was wonderful!!! Zorro is a bit nervous and doesn't trust people easily, but Jessica was endlessly patient, kind, and loving with him, and he warmed up to her quickly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We'd trust her with Zorro again without hesitation!”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for over 10 years — from raising and training my own to caring for friends' pets along the way. I've handled everything from puppy potty and crate training to giving medications on schedule, so whether you have a bouncy new puppy or a senior needing extra care, I've got the experience to keep them comfortable and on routine. I am home full-time so your pup will always have the attention and care he or she deserves. I have the freedom to feed, play, cuddle, or administer medication as needed. I have a fully fenced yard, so dogs get plenty of safe outdoor time and never spend the day alone. I also have a Florida room with a sliding door so I am able to separate dogs when necessary. In case of emergencies, I live 5 minutes away from a veterinary hospital.
“Jorge’s service was great. My pets spent the day with him and were returned to me well. I received pictures and he was responsive to my check texts. His property is welcoming and so was he. I would recommend his services to anyone looking in this area.”
“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!”
“Darcy and Dave are so sweet to my puppy. they are always so responsive and send pictures of my puppy and update on how the day is going. i had been worried that bringing my puppy to a daycare so young that she wouldn’t do well but it seems to be the opposite! Darcy is super helpful and her time with darcy has been a huge help for helping to teach her”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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 taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I also take care of senior dogs and cats. I understand the importance of taking care of your furbabies while you are away. I have a clean home, smoke-free home and a big yard. I am reliable, loving and trustworthy. Whether you need a weekend getaway, a daily walk or just someone to love on your pet while you’re busy- I’ve got you! I am a homemaker and I am home full-time. I will be able to give your pet love and attention all day. I walk everyday in the safe community of Suntree where I live. Your pet would feel safe here and we would take walks together. 😃 I have a big yard and live in a safe neighborhood in Suntree. I have no children. My home is quiet, welcoming and smoke-free. I will make sure your pet is comfortable here. Sometimes I play jazz music on the TV for my pets. 😆🩷 I just want to create a peaceful and loving environment for our furbabies.
About: Our fur family members brings me so much joy and happiness! I love all of them so much! They make me so happy when I see their faces light up and their tails wag! I will treat them the way you would want me to to treat them. There is no better thing than the love of a dog or cat. I have worked with several elderly pups and cats. I have tons of experience with oral meds, shots, diapers and other care necessary for our elderly fur family members. As for puppies, I have raised several of my own. I helped a friend take care of her momma dog and 9 puppies! I had to bottle feed one of them. Cats are unique animals. I will love them, if they want or I will just be their pooper scooper, food server and fresh water care giver! I will do exactly what their owners ask. My husband and I love having the fur babies at our home. It gives us great pleasure to help families go out and make memories to last a lifetime without worrying about their fur family members! Your vacation needs to be stress free. I am very dependable, loving, and attentive to the needs of all the fur babies I care for. You will not be disappointed by hiring me. Have a great day! I am on my “next chapter” which is focusing on pet sitting. I board pups at my home, so I can love on them 24 hours a day! I want to give them as much love and care as possible to make them relax. I would love to walk them for you during the day, feed them, give them belly rubs and just spoil them. Most of my clients and friends call me the pet whisperer. I show them the care and love that they need while you are away from them. I send photos and updates often. I do this because I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away from them. Stress free is my motto!!!! I treat your fur family members like my own. I will do whatever you tell me they are allowed to do in your home. I will care for them, as if you are there showering them with love!
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Palm Shores on Rover is $29.97 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 462 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.
