“Paula is the best! My dogs love her and I feel at peace when I leave them with her. Her communication is 10/10, she is super loving and caring. She checks in with pictures and updates you daily. Truly amazing service, wouldn’t leave them with anyone else! Book her, she is great.”
“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!”
“Shirley is the best sitter I could ask for! Not only does my dog have a beautiful house to stay in, friendly dogs to play with, and constant access to the backyard, but Shirley is like a second mom to my dog. She is sweet to her and treats her like her own. My dog loves her, with good reason. Another great thing are the hour-long park walks she gives the dogs several times a week. I've actually opted to leave my dog with Shirley one day a week because I've noted her more social since she started staying with Shirley and her dogs. This is definitely the best person to trust your doggie with.”
“Janeth is our top choice for dog sitting and has been for the past year. Roscoe is always giddy when he sees her. She takes photos and shares updates with us throughout his stays. We would be lost without Janeth!”
“I truly couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my dog than Mayra. I get emotional even writing this—she goes above and beyond every single time. Her kindness is exceptional, and it means the world to me knowing Banks is in such loving hands. Banks and I are so lucky to have her in our lives. Thank you for taking such amazing care of him. God bless you, Mayra.”
“April and Quintin are an absolute delight. Strong and consistent communication. They go above and beyond. Super easy to work with. Exactly what a traveling dog dad like me needs. Thank you!”
“Good communication and very good care! I didn't have to worry about my furry bestie while in Miami because Paloma was very kind and attentive, giving me updates of my cat while I was out.”
“Claudia is amazing! My dog was warmly welcomed into her home by the entire family (Lola included!) and he had the best time. Claudia provides photos and feedback during the visit. Astro was loved and well taken care of! Thank you for treating Astro so well!!”
“I’m so grateful for the care she gave my dog Banks. She treated him with so much love, patience, and attention, and it truly gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Her kindness really stood out - she went above and beyond in such a natural, thoughtful way. I really love her energy and the way she shows up with compassion and consistency. I’m extremely grateful for her and would absolutely trust her with Banks again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone who will treat your pet like family.”
“Ricardo took EXCELLENT care of my baby Oreo. They sent me daily photos and videos, notified me of food concerns, and always replied quickly. Best of all, my fur baby was exhausted from having too much fun when we got back home. This was my first time using rover and Ricardo exceeded all of my expectations, will definitely book again!”
“Christina was wonderful with my puppies. I had never left them with anyone but family and was very nervous leaving them. Christina made me feel at ease and the twice a day photos definitely let me know they were not only ok, but were having a wonderful time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“She was so kind and attentive, even cooking a special treat for Tango, which was such a thoughtful gesture. She also took him out for some playtime, and he had the best time. Teresa truly has a way with pets, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and welcoming environment for their furry friends! Gracias Senora Teresa ❤️”
“Ella y su esposo son los mejores! Mi perro, Lucky se siente como en su casa. Lo cuidan y le dan mucho amor. Hoy cuando fui a recogerlo estába tan tranquilo. Maite tenía música relajada y todos los perros que tenía estaban tranquilo. Ninguno de ellos ladró. Es muy cariñosa con nosotros y con los animales. Está es mi segunda vez con ella y estoy feliz de haberla encontrado. La recomiendo cien por ciento. Estoy muy agradecida de contar con ella para cuidar de Lucky en el futuro. Gracias Maite por tu cuidado y cariño.”
“Marius was a wonderful sitter! You can immediately tell how much she truly loves dogs. She was patient, extremely friendly, and Gambit liked her! She also did a great job keeping me updated with pictures, and I could tell he was having such a great time. When we picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly very comfortable with her, which is always the best sign!!”
“Guina took amazing care of our puppy, Oakley!! She made sure he had such a fun weekend with the other dogs and sent so much cute footage all weekend long. Guina is incredibly sweet and accommodating! 100% recommend her for your pet sitting needs! Would give 6 stars if I could :D”
“Gracias a Yara y su linda familia por cuidar de nuestro Milo por 15 días, fue una larga estadía, Yara siempre muy amable y servicial con una muy buena comunicación me enviaba videos y fotos de él todo el tiempo, yo estoy segura que él se sintió como en casa, fue muy pero muy consentido y eso me tenía tranquila 💫🧡recomendadicima 100% hasta una próxima 🐶”

¡Una experiencia maravillosa! Maite cuidó increíblemente bien de mi cachorro y me hizo sentir completamente tranquila al dejarlo con ella. Fue muy cariñosa, responsable y atenta, y me mantuvo informada durante toda su estancia. Cuando fui a recogerlo, estaba feliz y perfectamente cuidado. 🐶❤️ Sin duda volvería a confiar en ella y la recomiendo totalmente a cualquiera que busque a alguien responsable y cariñoso para cuidar de su mascota.
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! ❤️🐾
Paula was wonderful from the moment we met at the meet and greet. Dudu stayed with her for 11 days, and she always sent me pictures and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her, and Dudu will definitely stay with her every time we travel. Thank you, Paula!
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!
As first-time Rover users, we were a bit anxious about leaving our pup with strangers for an extended 2-week vacation. We found Alejandro's profile based on reviews and proximity to our home. After meeting Alejandro and his wife Robbie for a meet-and-greet, we decided to give it a shot. Wow - we are so grateful we did! Alejandro and Robbie are incredibly kind and gentle people. And, importantly, they showered our Maddie with love and attention for two weeks. They did so much more than just "watch over" Maddie and give her food. They cared for her, took her on walks, incorporated her into their daily routines, took her along to restaurants for breakfast. Throughout the two weeks, Alejandro and Robbie sent pictures to reassure us that Maddie was ok. The first pictures were hugely reassuring, but after the 10th picture started getting concerned that Maddie might not want to come home. She was clearly enjoying her stay with Alejandro and Robbie. In short, we 100% recommend Alejandro and Robbie to care after your pup. We are blessed to have met them!
April and Quintin were amazing with my dog Carl. They kept constant communication on how he was doing, kept him engaged and he definitely felt loved by both of them. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a dedicated, reliable, and professional dog sitter! Thanks April and Quintin!
I CANNOT RECOMMEND HER MORE! You will never have to ask for any updates or wonder if your dog took their medication/food. She is on top of it and sends updates frequently! She’s very friendly, easy going, and fun to talk to. A genuine dog lover and wonderful environment for your baby. She exercised my baby 3 times a day and treated him like her own family. I couldn’t ask for better! 🥰
Katherine was a lifesaver — she took Voltaire in on very short notice and gave him a fantastic weekend. I could tell from the updates she sent that he was comfortable, well cared for, and having a great time. She’s clearly experienced and genuinely loves dogs. I’d trust her with Voltaire again without hesitation, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in South Miami on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,874 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 rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of South Miami sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which South Miami landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
