“Thank you Gail you are an angel, you take such a good care of Ren and with so much love! I will never forget how amazing you are! Thank you for the job that you do. God bless you every day!”
“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.”
“Muchísimas gracias a Noraima por todo, ella es increíble!! Estuvo en comunicación constantemente. Tiene un patio en su casa perfecto para jugar y correr, mis bebés definitivamente disfrutaron sus vacaciones con ella🐾”
“Mr. tito was very accommodating. I liked the way he interacted with Onnie. Onnie seemed happy when I picked him up. That’s very important to me. He sent me a picture of Onnie relaxing. I breath a sigh of relief after seeing picture. Would book again.”
“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.”
“We are very happy with boarding services provided by Olga and her family. Our dog stayed with Olga for 3 nights and we already booked another stay for future date. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Raul watched our Great Dane for 8 days this past week. He was attentive, communicative, and able to accommodate Dawson’s anxiety with a lot of head rubs and walks. I would recommend Raul if you are in need of a pet sitter.”
“Very friendly. Every thing went well and I felt confident my baby was going to be okay once the meet and greet was done. Lots of freedom for our pup to run around like at home. Secure and fenced in. Thanks for your quick response.”
“Amanda was amazing with Joy this weekend! 🐶💖 She kept me updated the whole time and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Joy was clearly well cared for and got lots of cuddles 🥰 She also had a great time hanging out with Bentley—her dog—and they got along really well. Everything went smoothly. I would absolutely trust Amanda again!”
“Angelica was a perfect fit for my dog Oliver. She would send me updates/photos. We had really good communication. Was so thankful she was available when I had to book last minute highly recommend Angelica and will book again”
“They are simply the best. My dog goes inside their home without looking back at dropoff and isn’t hurried to leave at pickup. We left her for 17 days this time (the longest we have with Graciela) and you could tell she was loved, cared for and had a great time. Thank you!!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of a sweet 2.5-year-old Maltese named Bulba. He weighs just 8 lbs and is a friendly, playful little guy who loves both dogs and kids. He enjoys making new furry friends and is always happy to share his toys and playtime. I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment in a pet-friendly community with a dog park just steps away. Dogs in my home are treated like family—they’re welcome on the couch and the bed if that’s what they’re used to. I make sure every dog gets plenty of love, playtime, walks, attention, and a calm, comfortable environment. To keep everyone safe and happy, I specialize in caring for small and medium-sized friendly dogs. I only host one family’s pet at a time, so your dog will receive my full attention and care. My goal is to make every pet feel relaxed, loved, and at home while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I spend most of my time at home, so your dog will get plenty of attention, love, and playtime throughout the day. Daily walks and outdoor time are part of our routine, and we also have a dog park in our community for extra exercise and fun. I provide a calm, comfortable environment and can easily follow your pet’s usual schedule, including feeding, walks, medication, and bedtime routines. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and a calm environment where dogs are treated like family. I have a friendly 2.5-year-old Maltese named Bulba who weighs 8 lbs. He loves meeting new dogs, enjoys playing, and gets along well with both dogs and children. I only accept friendly small and medium-sized dogs and carefully introduce them to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos throughout your dog’s stay, so you’ll always know how they’re doing.
“Silky was a great sitter when I needed her for my dog and cat, I highly recommend to hire such a nice lady, she is very kind, attentive and thoughtful. She took care of my pets in very professional manner, was sending me pictures/updates every day sometimes twice a day so I wasn’t worried at all about my furry babies while I’ve been away. I will definitely come back and ask Silky to “babysit” them again. Thank you, dear ?”
“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!!”
“Yara was fantastic! She cared for my dog Bruno on very short notice, offering a warm, attentive, and loving experience. I was able to book her the same day for the weekend, which was a great relief. Yara and her family showed much care and affection, making Bruno feel like part of their home. Thank you so much, Yara. We would definitely trust you with Bruno again!”
About: I have a lifetime of experience with pups of every size and age, from all kinds of breeds, energy, and backgrounds. I have extensive care in senior dog care. I use to only rescue senior dachshund’s from the shelter at one point in my life. Just about all my friends and family rely on me for pet care. My thought process: Dogs lack the opposable thumbs required to feed and walk themselves, which is exactly why I spoil mine so much. Born and raised in Miami, FL, a true local. I work from home, so I am always around to keep an eye on the pups and give them plenty of attention. I finish my workday by 2:00 PM, which gives me wide-open afternoons and evenings for dedicated dog walking/parks and drop-in visits. Because I’m home so much and only host one small guest dog at a time, your pup will easily blend right into our daily routine! Safety is my top priority! I live in a secure apartment building which does have its designated area for the babies. I always keep a close eye during elevator rides, hallway and street walks. Inside my home, your pup will have the company of my two friendly dogs. I only host one guest dog at a time to ensure a calm environment.
“Laura and Pipe where the embodiment of love and care towards my baby girl, Sarabi. They even set time aside to meet her so she may get along with them before the stay. They played with her, fed her and treated her like a queen. She will be seeing them once more for sure!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Surfside is $45

Idania and her family just love my Santi!! I always feel very comfortable leaving her with them.. Idania provides exceptional care and love to my fur baby.. I have left my pet for the 3rd time with her now, and I can honestly say Idania is wonderful !!! Thank you so very much Jackelin
During the weekend Sheldon spent with Cathie, he was very happy and comfortable. She treated him with love and kindness. She also sent us updates and photos daily, which made us feel reassured. I would recommend her to anyone needing this type of service for their pets.
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! 🐶💛
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!
This is my second time booking Ammy, and once again, she’s been wonderful! She takes such great care of Moo and always makes me feel at ease while I'm away. It’s clear she genuinely loves and understands small dogs. We truly appreciate her attentiveness and reliability, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommended! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Surfside is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $61 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 4,466 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 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 Surfside 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 Surfside 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 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 , 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.
