“Our Aussie Doodle seemed to love being there. She played with their dog and she slept on the bed with their teen aged son. She took to these people like she had known them all her life. She even jumped up on the son's lap and our doodle just doesn't do that to people she doesn't know. I would definitely use this lady again to watch our dog.”
“Nika loved staying with Marion! She was very well taken care of and I'm so happy that I found Marion. She made my puppy feel very welcome and she kept me updated with the cutest pictures, so I didn't have to worry about Nika. When we came back, Nika was really happy to see us but also kind of sad to leave her new friend. She was also very tired after her little vacation and she slept great through the night! We will definitely leave Nika with Marion again in the future, we know our puppy will be safe and surrounded by great people. Marion was also very accommodating and it was very easy to set up meet-and-greet and drop-off and pick-up times. Her house is very well set up for dog boarding and that was a huge plus! Nika was able to hang out in a nice fenced back yard. I definitely recommend Marion to anybody who is anxious about leaving their dog even for couple of days - Nika is my baby and I understand the struggle!”
“Daniel has watched our dog for us several times and our dog loves visiting with him and his two dogs. Daniel was so nice after I screwed up my dates and times. We would definitely have him watch our dog again.”
“Such a great little family and space. I could see in the check in messaging how relaxed and stress free my dog was during the whole visit. Very relaxing environment. When you book with a kennel or even people who have several dogs they are either watching or personally own and it can get really stressful for your pup. Not with this crew though. Thank you all so much. Will use again and highly recommend (although part of me just wants to keep them for ourselves 🤣💕🙏).”
“My fur baby is a diabetic and her sugar drop very low in the middle of the night and she heard her thrashing around and saved her by giving her honey and bringing her sugar back up. Took awhile for her to get back to normal, but she stayed by her side and then put her in her room for the rest of the stay. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my baby!❤️”
About: Passionate about the well-being of furry friends, I am a dedicated pet walker and sitter with a profound love for animals. With a background in animal care and a natural affinity for four-legged companions, I ensure a safe, enjoyable experience for pets under my watch. i’m currently working part time from home so i’m available almost everyday after 10am for walks/drop in’s. Please schedule Pet sitting/House sitting (in customers home) at least two days in advance. Pet sitting in my own home is for cats/small dogs only. please schedule 5 days in advance. for dogs I will try for as much outside time as they allow, and I have an unfenced yard for midnight potty breaks, for cats I have lots of furniture to hide and play in. Any animal in my home will be treated like family.
About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve been through every stage of a pup’s life from energetic, curious puppies to the tender care senior dogs need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to keep dogs happy and healthy. Because of this, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” Right now, I have plenty of free time which means I can give your pet my full attention.I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine from morning walks to playtime and cuddles throughout the day. Having the flexibility in my schedule allows me to keep pets on their normal routines and make sure they always feel cared for and comfortable. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them a calm space, regular walks, and plenty of playtime and affection just like I do with my own dogs. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel right at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. My goal is always to keep pets happy, loved, and stress free, whether they’re with me or staying in their own familiar environment.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Placid Lakes
Wonderful day visit. Wayne and Toya really listened to us describing our senior dogs likes and needs. When we picked them up, he described their day, and it was exactly what each of the girls needed. Quiet day for Dixie and lots of walks (and pets) for Stella. Looking forward to our next visit. Thanks so much Wayne and Toya.
This is our second time having David as Finxleys sitter and he is the very best. Every time, Finxley has been so happy to stay with him. He also updates us multiple times a day which we appreciate so much. We get to go away worry free and know she is in really good hands. Thank you David for being our sitter :)
Sophie had the best care and the best time with Wayne and his family. She loved playing with Blaire. This was her first overnight, and our first time using Rover. Thanks for taking such good care of our baby. I highly recommend Wayne to care for your dog. He will treat your pup, like his own. Thank you! We will definitely use his service again, and again.
Sophie loves to stay with Wayne, Blair and Family. They are so loving and kind to her. I receive numerous pictures and updates daily. If you need someone to trust your fur baby with. I highly recommend using Wayne. Sophie has stayed with him numerous times and she is always happy and wagging her tail when we drop her off. Thanks for taking great care of our sweet Sophie😘
It was so nice to meet Dave. First time user of this sight and was put right at ease with how comforting Dave made my shih tzu feel at home in his home. Dave sent photos throughout the day which also helped me know he was being attentive and loving to my boy. I feel they made a bond that now I can work with and know my Cody will not only be comfortable...but happy beside his new friend Dave when I am not around. I will be calling on him again and would recommend him to anyone who is hesitant to use a "stranger" to watch their precious loved one. In moments, with the manner that Dave conducts himself, they will be fast friends.
David was absolutely incredible with our Mickey. First time ever using him and would highly recommend. So unbelievably accommodating and kind. Lots of pictures sent making out time away much easier knowing how well she was being provided for. Will be using hopefully only David from here on out!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Placid Lakes home-away-from-home, 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 Placid Lakes.
<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 Placid Lakes 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 , 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 .
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.
