“Paula was a wonderful host! Coco had the best time playing in the grassed yards, sunbathing and relaxing under the trees, along with Paula's other dogs. We got constant communication, lots of photos and videos and daily updates. She also gave her the meds she needed, even gave her a bath at the end and washed and cleaned all her toys, blankets, etc. We could feel the love and dedication to our little baby during her stay and that is all we wanted, really - that Coco felt loved and safe the whole time we were away, like she feels with us!”
“Mariana & Carlos did an amazing job watching Charlie and Gus! They sent pictures and updates. Charlie and Gus came home happy and tired. I would definitely use Mariana and Carlos for future visits!”
“Christina’s attention to my dog is top notch. This was his second stay and he had a great time. He was happy to return to her home. She is the best! She sends pictures all the time so you know how your little one is doing. Thank you again so much Christina!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Raimely was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my pet and treated them with so much love, patience, and attention. I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in such caring and capable hands. She was reliable, communicative, and truly went above and beyond. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Raimely to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable! ❤️🐾”
“Carolina was great with Laka. She provided daily feedback and photos during Laka’s stay. She was flexible with a meet and greet, as this was the first time with her, and allow me to bring a rug to help with Laka’s mobility in the house.”
“¡Maite fue absolutamente increíble! Fue muy comunicativa, enviaba actualizaciones y fotos, y me hizo sentir completamente tranquila. Mi perro estuvo feliz, seguro y claramente bien cuidado. Sin duda volvería a reservar con ella y la recomiendo al 100%.”
“She was amazing! I’m so happy I chose Guiña! Luna was in a room on her own with all the amenities she would ever want. Despite Luna being a shy girl Guina made the attempt to interact with her and sent me photos and videos! 10/10”
“I can’t say enough great things about Katharine! She stepped in last minute to watch Rue and her exceptional care put me at ease right away. Her communication was outstanding- she kept me updated with regular messages and videos, which showed just how happy and well cared for Rue was. Her love for our dogs shines through her work. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my baby Rue. Highly highly recommend especially when looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! ❤️”
“Courtney was great. Always keeps me posted on how my dog is doing with multiple check ins every day and has a back yard for the dog to roam and would take her out for walks constantly. Overall she did great and I will definitely rebook with her.”
“Diana is a wonderful sitter and Neatle loves her! Dianna is attentive, responsible, meticulous, and most of all compassionate. Our dog has stayed with her a few times but the last time, our dog was a little under the weather and Diana was so careful about following instructions for medicine and food. What a wonderful dog sitter! We love her!”
“Valentina took such good care of my girl she looked like she was right at home getting all the best cuddles and loving. She provided excellent feedback all throughout the stay I never had to worry how my girl was doing I always knew she was in good hands ☺️”

“I would definitely recommend Jennifer! She’s welcoming and loving. She sends pictures and keeps you up to date with your pet. She was amazing with my pup and I would recommend her to anyone !”
“Jessica has watched our dog a few times and she has been amazing! She takes such good care of her and takes her on plenty of walks. Our dog isn’t super social with other dogs, so she was able to really help her feel comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“Olga was great and took such good care of our dog while we were away for almost 10 days! She shared daily pics and videos, was very patient while our dog adapted to the new environment and gave him lots of love while we were away! He seemed very happy and well taken care of when we picked him up. Thank you Olga! I’m sure Bruno misses you and Chevy ❤️”
“Dora was everything we expected for our beloved Lucas. Flexible and accommodating, sweet and understanding, she provided regular updates including pictures. We found THE ONE. Highly recommended. Thank you!!!”
“My husband and I are extremely satisfied with the care our two little dogies received from Maria. And we could tell our little ones were very happy too! She sent us pictures everyday and that was fantastic and helped us since we were missing our babies so much. For sure we will contact her the next time we need a dogsitter. Having our doggies Makie and Fluffy with Maria was an extraordinarily good experience. We recommend her highly. Isabel and Aidan (Sam ) Sullivan”

Paloma was great! Super communicative and shared many videos and updates. Was very open to our few requests and respected our boundaries. She was also very flexible and accommodating with our travel schedule. Our girl had a great time with her and her pup. Thank you, Paloma!
I couldn’t be happier with the care they gave Ace! It means so much to know he was in good hands while I was away. They took great care of him, and I felt comfortable knowing he was safe, loved, and well looked after. I truly appreciate their time, care, and attention to my big boy. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby!
Nahe really took wonderful care of my dog for two weeks while I was away. I’m incredibly grateful for her. Leaving my dog for that long was stressful but she made the whole experience so much easier. She kept me updated regularly, sent me pictures, and made me feel very reassured that my dog was doing well and being cared for. What I appreciated most was how comfortable and at ease I felt having my dog with her. She was communicative, dependable, and clearly attentive to my dog’s needs and routine. The frequent updates and photos really helped me enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about how things were going. I could tell my dog was safe which meant so much to me. I really appreciate the time, attention, and care Nahe gave her. I would absolutely trust her to watch my dog again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative to take care of their pet.
Great! She sent daily pictures and a video of my dog and was always prompt with responses and check ins. Would happily have her dog sit again. Very friendly in person and was accommodating when I forgot to bring a few things for my dog and had to run home to get them. 5 stars
Maite and her husband were absolutely amazing with Lambo while we were away\! I could immediately tell how happy and comfortable he was with them, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to actually enjoy my trip without worrying about him\. They took such great care of him, kept me updated, and treated him like their own\. It’s so hard to leave your dog with someone, but I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands\. I would 100% trust them with Lambo again and highly recommend them!
Alejandro and his wife Robby were absolutely amazing dog sitters. They were very attentive, sent lots of photo and video updates, and took our puppy on many walks at the park near their house. This was our first time boarding our dog overnight with someone, and it was a really great experience. I could tell from the photos and videos that our dog was very comfortable and happy in their home. He came home in a very good mood, which suggests to me that he felt comfortable and was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Alejandro and Robby for dog sitting, and hope to use them again sometime soon!
I can’t say enough good things about Christina. She watched our boys for over a week including giving them medicine and dealing with our littlest working on his manners with other dogs. We love having them stay with her and they get so excited to be there. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our boys!!
Mia went above and beyond taking care of our dogs for a little over a week. She was communicating with us the entire time and sending us updates. Our dogs came home calm and that is a testament to the care she provides. Will definitely reach out to her the next time we need boarding for them.
We couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after Maple! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Natalia kept us updated throughout her stay with wonderful pictures and thoughtful messages, which meant so much to us while we were away. When she noticed that Maple was having some trouble with her bowels, she immediately let us know and went above and beyond to make sure Maple was comfortable. She even prepared some pumpkin for her to help settle her tummy — such a thoughtful and caring touch! It was clear that Maple was not just being “watched” — she was genuinely cared for and loved. We came home knowing she had been happy, comfortable, and in great hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate to care for their furry family member. Maple would happily stay with her again! ❤️🐾
Lilly was fantastic! I know that Poppy had a great time and was well taken care of- she was even hesitant to leave! We received daily updates on Poppy and Lilly truly treated her as her own. She was exercised, played with, cuddled, and spoiled; it was as much a vacation for her as it was for us. Poppy showed no signs of anxiety or nervousness upon return. Her environment was clean, calm, inviting, and pet-free. I know that Poppy appreciated the spacious area and backyard with lots of outside time. Lilly was also very flexible and helped greatly when return flights were rescheduled. Highly recommend Lilly to care for your fur baby without worry!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - South Miami
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in South Miami is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $51 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,853 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South Miami. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 South Miami 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 South Miami 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 South Miami.
Tip: 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 South Miami 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.
