Christina was awesome! I have an older dog, so wanted a meet & greet before leaving her with anyone. Christina was super understandable and met with her the next day. I just picked my pup up after 4 nights and she looked great! Christina sent me photos and daily updates which I really appreciate. Will definitely leave my dog there next time!
Janeth was amazing! My fur baby had never stayed with anyone else before so I was a bit worried about it. Janeth made me feel at ease. She was very sweet, gentle and caring with him. She also sent me updates (morning and evening) with photos. If you are in need of a reliable, responsible and professional dog sitter, I highly recommend her. 😊 I know I will definitely use Janeth’s services again in the future.
Jessica was wonderful with our 6 month old puppy. We usually take our Nikki everywhere with us, so this was her first time away. We had met Jessica and her dog, and we knew she’d be good with our Nikki. When we brought her, Nikki felt right at home and secure. She brushed and walked her and was great about posting photos and videos; and communicated so we knew and could see how our Nikki was doing. Thank you Jessica for doing such a wonderful job with our sweetie.
I can’t recommend this wonderful couple enough! From the moment I dropped off my dog, I knew he was in caring and loving hands. They genuinely care about the dogs they watch, and it truly shows in everything they do. They kept me updated throughout his stay with thoughtful messages and adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Knowing my dog was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for made my heart so happy and allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying. If you’re looking for sitters who will treat your dog like family, look no further. I would trust them again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care.
Paula and her Mom are the most amazing, loving and responsible dog sitters. Our sweet pup had a medical emergency and they went out of their way during the middle of the night to get him the emergency care he needed. They were very communicative and responsive. We are SO grateful we chose th to watch our baby💕🐶💕
It was my first time ever having a sitter for my doggy and jewelene made the experience so easy and made me feel confident in my baby being safe and well taken care of. She did an amazing job and although my dog can be very anxious she did great with her. Would definitely recommend!
Abigail was an excellent sitter for our Italian greyhound over a long weekend! She has a lovely home, family, and years for the dogs to enjoy during their stay. She is also diligent about sending photos, videos, and taking the dogs to the park and on several walks as needed. I was very grateful for Abigail’s care for Ripley and will definitely book again!

Annalie watched our pup while we were out of the country for over a week and felt so happy knowing Dooey was happy and safe in a loving home during that time. My dog also had an upset stomach which she was able to administer all his special dietary needs and medications and made sure he was doing well and kept me updated on his time at Annalie's puppy camp! 1000% recommend her for any of your pet needs whether its a walk to a place to board your fur baby while you're thousands of miles a way! Thank you Annalie!!
Teresa was just wonderful. She was communicative the entire time our dog was with her. Willow seemed very happy to be in this loving family and got along well with Teresa's sweet dog. I would not hesitate to book with her again in the future! 100 percent recommend!
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.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - South Miami
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in South Miami on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,862 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.
