“Erick’s a great dog sitter. He communicated and asked questions to make sure my dog was taken care of well. Sent pictures and videos my dog playing with the other dogs and on walks. When I picked up my dog, he seemed like he had a great time. Overall easy and pleasant to work with too. I highly recommend.”
“Idania is absolutely amazing!! I’m so thankful to have found her. She cared for Baci like he was her own. She also kept me updated with pictures of their time together. He looked so happy! I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Idania!!! :)”
“Very nice, very caring, she took a great care of my Tequila. Her dog Romeo is so sweet and full of energy they played all day and took naps. Felicia is very flexible with the schedule also, had no problem accommodating me very early in the morning. I really recommend her.”
“I can't recommend Jonathon enough. He was awesome with our Korra. Korra was right at home with all smiles. Jonathon kept us up to date with pictures which made it more comfortable knowing that our Korra was ok and enjoying her time away from us. I hope he is available for us in the future. Thank you again”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing with our pup Romeo! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared so much about making sure he was happy and comfortable. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We would definitely book with Lauren again and highly recommend her! 🐶💛”
“Sylwia took amazing care of my 14-year-old dog, Layla, and I could not be more grateful. From day one, she was attentive, thoughtful, and clearly very experienced with senior dogs. She sent daily updates with photos and detailed notes about Layla’s mood, habits, and what she liked each day, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. On her own initiative, she even added a soft, comfortable material to the bottom of Layla’s crate to make her more comfortable, which meant a lot to me. It was clear that Layla was treated with genuine care and kindness, not just watched over. All of this came at a very reasonable price. I would absolutely trust Sylvia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter.”
“Awesome! Leanet is wonderful! This was my first time leaving my puppy and and I couldn’t be happier! Constantly giving me updates and sending me pics! My Grace was very happy with her! Will definitely be a return client! Thank you so much Leanet !”
“The. Best! Thank you so much for always being such a loving and attentive sitter to my babies. Vanessa takes such care of the pups even when they needed different oral meds, it was so comforting to know how on top of it all you were and kept me updated the entire time. Thank you!”
“Christin was personable, communicative and friendly. Our dog Riker clearly had a great time because he’s been asleep since he got picked up! Thanks, Christin!”
“Aby and Johnathan were fantastic! They sent me tons of pictures and videos which made me feel so at ease while I was out of town. I could tell Lilly thoroughly enjoyed her stay with them. I would rebook them in a heartbeat!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and come from a very animal-loving family. We’ve cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and fish. I also have 5+ years of fostering experience, helping care for over 20 dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I’ve never lived without a pet, and currently I have one dog and an outside cat. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring for your pets, and I would treat them like family. I work from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day. I also enjoy going on multiple walks daily, so having a dog to join me would be wonderful. Your pet would receive lots of attention, exercise, and care. I provide a safe and loving environment for pets in my care. I live in a nice, walkable neighborhood that’s great for daily walks. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks to the beach boardwalk. I’m experienced with giving medication to pets, since I give medicine to my own dog daily. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and safe.
“This was our first time having a pet sitter for our dog and Jennifer made it the perfect experience! We received status updates and photos and videos daily. Since the first day, Jennifer has been so thoughtful and caring to our dog. Our dog loved staying with Jennifer and the snacks and treats! Jennifer was also very flexible with the pick up time. Highly recommend!”
“Fantastic 1st experience using Rover. My sincere thanks to Rafael for taking such great care of my pup. Great communication, very responsive and routine updates were provided. A+ service!”
“Oddrey LOVED staying with Cathe and her friends! Her dog is super sweet and her cat almost blends in like another dog. Her place is very comfortable for pups and well cared for. I highly recommend.”
“I honestly cannot say enough great things about Amy! She is truly AMAZING!!! From the moment I met her, I knew she was a great fit! And my pups agree! Her warmth and kindness emanates from her. She made us feel so comfortable in her home and my pups instantly gravitated towards her. Amy provided me with updates as well as the most adorable photos. She even catered to my little girl that loves to rest her jowls on my face at night! The picture she sent completely melted my heart ❤️ Not a doubt in my mind that they are safe in her hands. We feel beyond blessed to have found someone to care for our little ones as if they’re her own!”
“Adriana was phenomenal! This was my first time using this app and she made it all feel so easy and effortless. It’s always difficult to leave my fur baby when I’m away, but her great communication and constant follow up reassured me that Maui was in great hands! I highly recommend her! Thanks Adriana!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Surfside
Our Cocoa had a fab time staying with Leo. He provided updates and photos everyday. We rescued Cocoa from the streets a few weeks before and required boarding before taking her back to the UK - Leo boarded her and he made sure that there was no halt in progress with her in terms of training and diet. She looked amazing when we picked her up and we could tell that she was well looked after with Leo.
I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Galyna took such great care of Snoopy while I was away and kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Snoopy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her! 🐶💛
Jonathan is absolutely the best — I couldn't recommend him more highly! I left my Cavalier King Charles, Wyatt, in his care and felt completely at ease the entire time. Jonathan is attentive & genuinely loves animals. His home is a loving, comfortable environment with other pets, which made Wyatt feel right at home from the start. You can tell Jonathan truly cares about the dogs he watches — not just as a job, but because it's in his nature. Wyatt came back happy, well-loved, and clearly had a great time!
I appreciate how accommodating Anthony was, he worked with my schedule and took care of Milo for 3 days straight. Thank you so much Anthony for taking care of my puppy on such short notice. Im happy Milo was able to socialize with the other dogs as well. I would definitely book with you again if im in the area.
This is my second time booking with Liora and it was just as fantastic as the first. Liora is communicative, caring, and my pup is treated like family while staying with her. I’m truly grateful to have been connected with such a great sitter and will for sure continue to book her in the future!
Lauren was amazing! We trusted her immediately with our older pup given her experience. We could tell Thor felt right at home with her. Her updates were great and timely and she definitely cared for Thor as if he were hers. She noticed he had a bit of a dry nose and went out of her way to get him some balm to soothe it. We definitely will reach out to her to book again, Thor had a great time!
Pia is an incredible dog sitter! She recently watched my Doberman, Aria, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Pia was extremely attentive and went above and beyond to make sure Aria was active and engaged, including taking her on trips to the park. I really appreciated the consistent updates; she sent plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from Aria’s energy that she was happy, comfortable, and very well taken care of. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about animals and provides top-tier service, I highly recommend Pia!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Surfside on Rover is $43.29 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 4,461 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Surfside. 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 Surfside 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 Surfside 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 Surfside 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 Surfside.
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 Surfside 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.
