About: Experienced pet owner and lover with 8 years of volunteer experience. I am comfortable with energetic puppies, large breeds, senior pets, and administering medications. I provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry family members. Plus, I love taking pictures, so you'll get lots of happy photo updates while you're away! I am currently taking a break from my full-time career, my schedule is completely open. This allows for mid-day adventures, flexible potty breaks, and unlimited cuddles—your dog will literally never be alone. Your pet's safety is my top priority. My home is clean, safe, and fully pet-proofed. I have a secure environment and am vigilant about preventing escapes or accidents. To help them feel right at home, dogs are absolutely allowed on the furniture—couches and beds are welcome here! (Just let me know your rules at home so I can stay consistent).
“Lucy has a wonderful time with Alex and her pups!! Alex and her husband were both so sweet and I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in their care. Will definitely be seeing them again!”
“Zero has had a blast here on both of his stays. Chelsea and her family spoil Zero and he’s come back absolutely pooped & exhausted. Their whole family really loves having a furball around. Thank you Chelsea!”
“Thank God for Danayrys that accepted our last minute’s request to take care of our dog. Danayrys is an innate pets lover, she was very attentive at the instructions and needs of Buddy. Danayrys sent us a lot of pictures of him happy that made us feel happy also and enjoy the event we went. I’ll definitely hire her again! ☺️”
“Megan was amazing. She picked my girl up and came early so we could chat about what I was looking for. Megan took my pup out and about for a day on the town, and she came home soft, tired, and happy. It was perfect. We can’t wait to see her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have extensive experience growing up taking care of dogs, puppies and cats. I also have experience working in an animal hospital and doggy day care. I have a chocolate lab named Cleo and a domestic short hair kitty named Mia. I will treat your animals with the love and care they deserve. I work remotely part time so I have a flexible schedule to feed and care for your fur babies! I enjoy being outdoors and exercising in which I’m excited to walk your pups! I have a fenced in yard with lots of room for your fur babies to run around and play. My chocolate lab Cleo will also be around to keep things interesting. As far as your home, I will treat it with great care and respect. Securing all gates and doors, sending you update pictures leaving your mind at ease.
“Irisbel was amazing with my dog! Everything was perfect from start to finish, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. Great communication, very caring, and professional. I’m extremely happy with the experience and highly recommend her. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time!”
About: I've been an animal lover and a pet owner for many years - started with my cat Sophie, then fourteen years with my Yorkie, "Little Squishy Guy", through all the puppy antics, vet runs, and lazy couch days...until he passed last summer. Now I dog sit for friends and neighbors: walks, treats, cuddles. Yours gets that same warm care. I can only host dogs under 40 lbs. I'm retired and mostly home, so I'm flexible - your pet can get walks, feeds, or playtime whenever you need. I'm here most days, so no rushed schedules or surprises - your dog gets steady attention. Mornings are good for walks or breakfast, afternoons for play or rest, evenings for quiet time. Late drop-off? Early pickup? No problem. I'm not leaving. I board pets right here at my house - daytime or overnight. It's quiet, clean, secure: we hang out on the lanai, soaking up beautiful weather, fresh grass underfoot, and the beautiful water view. No loud noises or strangers - just calm space for walks, meals, potty breaks, or chilling together. I live alone and retired, so I'm gonna be hanging out with your dog all day. Your pup gets one-on-one attention.
“Debra and Garth are wonderful!!! Maple LOVED a being with Duke! She had a great day and I’m sure can’t wait to return! She was very relaxed after a full day of fun and play!! Thank you so much😃”
“Teresa was amazing with my dog Kima who is very timid in new situations. She totally understood her personality and took the time needed to let her get comfortable. This was a very last minute booking which I am very grateful to Teresa for accomadating. I will definately be using her again.”
“Bryce did a great job with our yellow lab. He is very low key and I think that was comforting for our 10 yo dog. Bryce was also very responsive when requesting care and checking in during our dog’s visit. We really appreciate the special care for our dog.”
“Wow! Carlos and his wife are AMAZING!! This was my first time leaving my puppy in doggie day care and they made it completely stress-free. Throughout the day I received tons of pics of Lily playing and hanging out with her new friends. I've already rebooked another day!! Thank you so much Carlos and Claudia for all of your hard work! Trustworthy, friendly, clean...everything you'd want in a doggie day care!!!”
“Estelle was excellent and caring, my dogs were happy, she took them out multiple times, has a fenced backyard, lot of space for dogs to run around. I will surely bring my dogs back to her in the future.”
“I am so grateful for Jackie and Russ. They bail me out when my schedule gets so messed up. They are kind and loving to Molly and she just loves them both right back. Thank you!”

The dogs had a great time at Melanie’s! Got some nice updates and photos throughout the day - it was great to see the dogs so happy while they missed us. Great communication as well for pickup and drop off. Would definitely return next time we’re back in town.

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 Pelican 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 515 sitters in Pelican Bay, 87% 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.
