About: I have had pets of all kinds all my life. I am familiar with the care of dogs, cats, and even chickens. I have a very calm nature and know your pet would be happy with me. I love going for walks and would love some dog company. I am retired so I am able to provide quality care for your animal working around your schedule and what works best for your pet. I can provide recommendations from other clients as to my reliability and trustworthiness. On drop-in visits your home would be treated with respect and care.
“They are the sweetest, kindest, most wonderful humans who took such great care of my pup (and me!) They truly feel like a gift from the universe, making an unusually hectic week completely okay. I couldn’t be more impressed and grateful and my dog couldn’t be happier.”
“Rachel has been a life saver! We were in a pinch to find a place to watch our 12 week old puppy on days that we work at the same time and bringing our pup to Rachel's has been our best decision. Rachel is incredibly kind both with us and with our pup. She's very flexible, very responsive, and sends us pictures throughout the day so that we don't worry about her! We will definitely continue bringing Bailey to Rachel's!”
“She is fantastic! She’s been doing a wonderful job with my puppy Recon. She’s great with training and updates throughout the day. I will not be using anyone else as I couldn’t have asked for a helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable person to help watch and train my Belgian. Thank you Mckenzy for all you’ve done for us!!!🤗”
About: Hi! I’m Victoria, a local Sanford dog sitter and proud dog mom to Leo, my toy schnauzer. I provide a safe, loving home environment where dogs are treated like family—not just pets. No cramped kennels or long hours alone. They’ll have the run of the house, plenty of outdoor time, belly rubs, treats, and all the love they could ask for. A brief Meet & Greet is required prior to sitting for all new clients to assure compatibility. I work remotely, which means your dog will have companionship and supervision throughout the day. Whether they’re here for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, they’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor breaks, playtime, cuddles, and individualized attention. I intentionally keep my boarding numbers low to create a calm, low-stress environment where every dog receives the care they deserve. We have policies in place to make sure dogs, who are escape artists, aren’t able to make a run for it, we space feeding time and walking time as research has shown eating prior to a walk and immediately after can cause bloating and other complications. It’s my mission your dog is safe at all times so you can worry less when your dog is not with you.
“Thank you Tracy & family! First time leaving my puppy, Miles with Tracy and she knows how nervous I was! When I picked Miles up he didn’t want to leave. He spent about 10 minutes ignoring me and playing while we talked. When we finally got to the front door he was giving Tracy hugs goodbye and looking back inside her house. Miles slept from the time we left until I woke him up for dinner and back to sleep until the next morning.”
“Bernard had a great time playing with doggy friends and relaxing at Bruce’s today. I am pregnant and have two young children, and it is so wonderful that Bernard has a happy place to play and get lots of extra attention that he craves. Thanks, Bruce!”
“Lauren was great with my Smooth Fox Terrier - Last minute request for day care - and she provided me with updates and was very accommodating! I will be using Lauren again!! Thank you... Thank you!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Mia! She is highly communicative, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Mia had an incredible day and came home happy and tired—which, as every dog owner knows, means she had a great time! Sarah also went above and beyond by accepting not one, but TWO last-minute bookings for me, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that Sarah genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Mia was so comfortable and happy with her. We’re both very happy customers, and Mia is already excited to go back tomorrow! 🐾🐾🐾 Thank you, Sarah! We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional Rover sitter.”
“If you are looking for someone to watch your pup, for whatever reason, look no further!!! Liliana is an absolute ANGEL!! Tanner goes to her about 4 times a week and to be honest, when I don’t have to work and he doesn’t have to go to her house, I sometimes feel bad lol because he LOVES going to see her!! Haha once we turn down her street, he is EXCITED!!! And that just warms my heart…can’t put a price tag on relief from knowing my boy is well taken care of and has the time of his life when he’s there!! Book with Liliana!! You won’t be disappointed!!”
“Amber and her son were great. We dropped out 4 month old pup off and got pictures and video throughout his few hour stay. He was worn out when we picked him up and likely to sleep the 8 hour drive home. He enjoyed the big fenced in back yard and her home was convenient for drop off and pick up from I-4. We hope to use Amber again and recommend her!”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds — including dogs, cats, small animals, and even senior pets. My care includes feeding, walking, administering medication, and giving plenty of attention and affection. I take pride in providing dependable, safe, and loving care so pet owners can feel confident their companions are in good hands. I’m currently a stay at home mom, both my kids are now in school full time. I would love to be able to help others with their pets while I’m home. I have an unfenced yard but would walk them as much as needed. I’m also able to crate train if needed. I currently have no pets in the home.
“Deborah did a great job with our doggies Zoie and Lexi. Our dogs had fun times playing with her dog Marigold and running around the yard a lot. She sent pictures each day and we could see our dogs were having a ball. We highly recommend Deborah and will certainly be using her again.”
About: I have over 25 years of pet caring experience. I have been a dog foster for a local rescue organization, caring for and sometimes ultimately adopting both puppies and senior dogs, large and small! My highest personal pet count was 6 dogs and 4 cats ;-) I know how difficult it can be to find someone to care for your pets whom you can trust - know that I will care for your pets as I care for my own! My schedule is varied. Please check my calendar. Extremely reliable - if we agree on a sitting, you can be sure I will be here for your pet! Flexible for day or night visits. Overnights welcome - treated as my own! I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room to explore and also one 2-year-old golden mix ready to play! I have a crate available if needed.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Pennichaw
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,395 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Pennichaw. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Pennichaw 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 1,395 sitters in Pennichaw, 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.
