“Daysy and her family were amazing! I’ve received daily updates (pictures and lots of videos). The entire family spent so much time with my Cooper. Daysy was available last minute due to another dog sitter cancelation and I could not be happier with that because now I found the new staycation place for my big boy when I’m out of town and not able to take him. Definitely recommend her!! Thank you Daysy!”
““I recently had my dog stay with Mia, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. My pup came home happy and relaxed, and it was clear that he was well cared for. Mia was super communicative, sent plenty of photo updates, and made sure I knew how my dog was doing each day. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!””

“Thank you Amy and family for taking such good care of Riley while we were on vacation for 3 weeks. Your updates and pictures meant a lot to us. I would highly recommend you to anyone. Thanks for your loving care.”

“Another wonderful stay at Francin's! Thank you for all the updates and pictures. It's always so comforting to see Hapi enjoying herself with other furry friends at your place. Thank you so much for making our time away so worry-free!”

“First time using a dogsitter, at first we were a little concerned on how our dog was going to react but he had an incredible time with Mario. He is so professional and kind with dogs. I highly recommend him you wont regret it!”

“Alexis was great! I had to leave the country and her communication was over the top. I loved how she took care of my little man and how she dedicated time to him so that he didn’t feel so lonely. Thank you, Alexis!!”

“Derek was a great sitter! He remained in communication with me throughout the duration of my trip and sent me pictures and photos of my dog. My dog also got the opportunity to play with other dogs during his stay. Will definitely recommend and use again.”


“Amazing experience! This family has a lovely home, they were very caring and loving to our dog, we got pictures and videos every day and most importantly she was very happy and acting normal when we picked her up (which wasn’t the case with the previous person we used on Rover). I would 100% leave our dog with this family again, the vibe was great from the get-go and the whole experience was very positive!”

“Conchita left sad when I picked her up…so that means she had an amazing time at her weekend home. Christine was amazing and was very communicative during my trip away from my fur baby. Will definitely have her watch my pup again.”

“Nora is amazing. So welcoming and she provides great care. Good photos and updates. Long walks to wear your pooch out. Has the prefect yard which gives dogs freedom to roam. I have used her multiple times and will continue to do so.”

“Maiyumi was an excellent dog sitter, and we will definitely be using her again. Our 3 doggies didn’t seem too excited to see us as they were so well taken care of and had a great time. Multiple daily photos were sent to allow us to see that the doggies were doing okay.”


“Maria was a great sitter for my cat Ron. She was constantly providing updates and photos of my boy. Additionally, she ensured that Ron was kept comfortable and stress-free while I was away. I totally recommend and will definitely book again in the future!”

“Excellent ! super comunicativa ! Las perras se notaban felices de estar con ellos ! Sin duda sera el lugar donde las volveré a dejar . Muy contentos quedamos con la ayuda de Dorisa”

“Lissette was amazing with my two babies Golden Retreivers. She was attentive all the time and sent me pictures of both of them while we were away. My babies didnt want to leave her house. I recommend her any time to take care of your 4 legged babies. She is really an awesome dog sitter. I will definitely get her to take care of my kids next time we need to go anywhere. THANK YOU Lissette for your love.”

“Yesi is an excellent sitter! She took very good care of our dog Casey! Yesi was very professional and would always respond promptly. Yesi sent us pictures and kept us updated on how Casey was doing. I would highly recommend Yesi to anyone looking for a dog sitter!!”


“This was a last minute booking due to Remi being on meds for her spine and everything turned out fine. I had many questions bc I didn’t want Remi to be overstimulated when what she really needed was to take her meds & rest. Jorge answered all of my questions and was patient and understanding with me. Jorge gave Remi her meds as indicated, kept a in touch and sent a picture each day. Thank you!! 🙌”

“Anelys and her family were absolutely amazing! It was our first time leaving our pup behind and she eased our nerves. Her communication was great and truly made us feel comfortable leaving Fenway with them. We can’t recommend Anelys enough and will definitely use her every-time we have to travel without our pup. Such a blessing. Thank you!”

Thank you so much for taking care of our GSP Maddie! We know she had a fabulous time because the moment she arrived home from her stay she immediately proceeded to nap! Mia was thorough with our communications with us and sent so many wonderful photos. We will definitely use her as a dog sitter in the future.

Nora and her husband Andrew are both outstanding dog sitters. We searched for weeks and interviewed several others, but none can compare to Nora. They are experienced with many different breeds and have the knowledge and understanding of what your “ fur-baby” needs or wants. Their home and yard are welcoming, friendly, and very clean. Our little Goldendoodle ate better, exercised more, and his behavior actually improved while staying with them. I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their excellent care.
We left our dog Ginger with Derek while we were on vacation and he did excellent. Ginger usually gets anxious when staying with new people, but she got comfortable with Derek very quickly. I could tell through the pictures and videos he sent us that she was in good hands and having a great time! We’ve had previous experiences with other boarding services where Ginger comes back scared and with a hoarse voice; but, when we picked her up from Derek, she looked energetic, healthy, and very happy! I would 100% recommend him

Highly recommend. We were nervous leaving our girls for the first time for several overnights but Valerie truly eased our worries away and exceeded our expectations. Very communicative and always updating us on our fur babies and sending us lots of pictures. Very professional as well. We will definitely leave our fur babies with Valerie again in the future.

Our experience was wonderful! She took such great care of our dog and kept us updated with lots of photos and messages throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious he was happy, well cared for, and having a wonderful time. We came home to a happy dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend Hoana!

First time Redband Elvis stayed with Cody! I am so happy 😊 we discovered Cody. Beyond grateful and appreciative for the love and care him and his partner provided to Elvis and Red. They felt so free, happy and loved during their stay. Cody provided photos and videos and I will forever recommend Cody!

We are always so happy when Candace takes care of Zero. She keeps us updated throughout his stay, which gives us great peace of mind. Zero is always happy, comfortable, and well cared for when he is with her. We trust Candace completely and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

JoAnn was absolutely amazing with my 7-month-old puppy, Indy! She cared for her for almost a week, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment I dropped Indie off, I knew she was in great hands. JoAnn, her family, and their sweet dog Teddy all welcomed Indy like she was one of their own. It was so comforting knowing she was getting plenty of love, attention, and playtime while I was away. JoAnn sent me multiple photos and videos every single day and kept me updated on everything Indy was up to, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Indy was happy, comfortable, and having the best time. I would highly recommend JoAnn to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive sitter. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Joanne, for taking such wonderful care of my girl!

Lee and his family were extremely welcoming to my dog Charlie who had a wonderful time! Lee sent many updates and pictures my way to ensure that I knew how Charlie was doing and was comfortable which I greatly appreciated. He also made sure that Charlie ate all of his pills each day which goes to show how much he cares. I highly recommend trusting Lee with your furbaby - I'm usually hesitant to leave Charlie with anyone, but Lee made me feel comfortable right away. You won't regret booking with Lee!

Maria and William were absolutely amazing with Gambit! They have a beautiful home with plenty of space for him to roam and feel comfortable. They were incredibly kind and attentive throughout his stay. Before we dropped him off, Gambit had injured his tail, but we didn’t realize how much he had been licking it. Maria and William noticed it right away and immediately took the time to bring him to the vet, even though it was far from where they live. I was so grateful for the care and attention they gave him!!. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Gambit was in such caring hands. I would definitely use their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet sitters :)

We're extremely happy with Claudia, she was amazing. From the moment we met in the Meet and Greet, we were able to see how she treated our Phoenix with so much love. She was very professional with all of her questions in regards to Phoenix care. She kept us updated during the stay. We definitely recommend Claudia and are very happy with her service.

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 Palmetto Bay 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 Palmetto Bay home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Palmetto Bay.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Palmetto Bay 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
