“Idania and her family have been excellent dog sitters! Their love and care towards our Pecan was cery obvious! We are saddly moving out of state and will miss having this wonderful family in our daily lives! We highly recommend Idania!”
“Leanet was wonderful! It was my first time booking and I was nervous but she updated me all day. Bruno came back happy with his new toy and smelling great. Will for sure be booking another daycare with her 😊”
“Jonathan is a caring wonderful person to leave our very loved puppy. Jonathan is warm, safe communicative. We really appreciate the way he took care of our puppy. We would definitely feel comfortable with our puppy Havhav spending time again with Jonathan.”
“Great experience! Lourdes suggested a meet and greet by video chat prior to the visit just to ensure that all our inquiries were addressed so when we arrived, she was already familiar with my dog Lola and what my expectations were. She met them all and more! Highly recommend her! I couldn't find a sitter available in my immediate neighbourhood so it was a 20 minute drive, well worth the trip. Thank you Lourdes! Lola is already asking when she can come back!”
About: I live in one of the most beautiful cities in Miami, the Village of Biscayne Park, neighboring Miami Shores and El Portal. I have loved & cared for dogs all my life from many of my own to friends & family pets as well. From puppies to senior care I have owned Great Danes, Sharpeis, Frenchies, Italian Greyhounds, Chihuahuas & many more. I always vibe well with dogs. I have the patience & experience on how to administer all type of medications, exercise, diets & special food. I work from home, which makes me available 24/7 -including holidays- and allows me to do dog boarding and day care. Therefore, you can be assured your pet will get all my love, attention as well as lots of play time. Our pets have access to the whole inside of the house in a very comfortable environment. I also have a fence-secured backyard, where they’re free to roam around with supervision at all times. I normally will let our dogs out in the yard about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I live one block away from our city recreational park for those nice long walks. 🐾🐶🦮🐕🦺.
“I previously requested Lioras dog walking service which was 5 stats, and now I'm glad to rate her 5 stars on day care in the sitters home. She's awesome and I feel grateful to have her as a caring and attentive person willing to look after him. Thank you!!!”

I have many years of experience taking care of various dogs (big and small), including my best friend and yorkie mix Daisy (pictured) who sadly recently passed away at 19 years old.

About: Growing up with furry friends was the best. Understanding their needs, and wants, including bathing, feeding, exercising and loving them, has been amazingly fruitful for both the animal and myself. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so there is a lot of opportunity for taking care of your little buddy! I am flexible with setting an ongoing schedule or flexible when needed. Amenities: a large fenced yard, lots of sidewalk space surrounded by dog parks and a cozy home to host your little love. I have a huge passion for being outside and going for any type of walk which I always have an affinity to do with a furry friend. I work a very flexible schedule from home most days of the week, so I’m available almost at any time you may need. Weekends are almost completely available for me as well. I have a fenced, clean yard that’s quite spacious behind our house. There is a lot of sidewalk to keep us walking, and there’s also plenty of opportunity to have fun at the dog parks just minutes walk from my home.
“Andres is awesome. He was the first "new person" (non-family/friend) to watch my rescue pup Dezi. And I never worried -- it is clear he has great instincts regarding what her needs/sensitivity. Eg. she was shy initially, preferring to sit on his couch quietly. On the walk, he let her guide the way. By the end of day, she was ready for belly rubs!! I'll use Andres again. Thanks for taking such good care of my sweet little girl!”
“Kelly was a great dog sitter. Easy to communicate with and fair pricing. Our dog was super happy after doggy daycare, she sent several pictures and took great care of our dog. The best dog sitter!! We will definitely use her again. Thanks Kelly ❤️”
About: I’ve always loved animals. I have experience training puppies, taking care of kittens, as well as tending to seniors and those with special needs. I believe in gentle attentiveness and loving care. I take care of only one household’s pet(s) at a time to ensure the highest quality care. Please note: I’m waiting for Rover to memorialize my darling dog’s profile. She passed away earlier this year so I don’t actually have any pets. I am currently working remotely and I have a fairly flexible schedule. I can be available during the week as well as on weekends with enough notice. Your pet(s) would be the only pet(s) in the home with me for the entire duration of their stay. I am happy to provide photos and videos of your pet(s) so you can see how they’re doing.
About: Pet boarding & house sitting services offered. I require transportation. I love animals. I really enjoy cats of all types, from cuddly to shy. I am very responsible when it comes to dogs, I will walk dogs based on their walk schedules. As of right now, I stay home most of the day while I seek full-time employment. I currently live with my mother, so having her around is an extra set of eyes on your pet. Neither of us are allergic to any animals. My daily routine is very flexible as of right now, I am just looking for a full-time job. I can walk dogs based on their schedules & have all the time in the world for a cat companion. I live in an apartment with a balcony & will not allow your pet on the balcony unless it is okay with you (the owner). Pets are family. Pet care fits perfectly throughout my daily & weekly routine. My schedule is very flexible while I search for full-time employment (I am searching for something that is related to sustainability). I mostly allow pets to roam around as they please, unless the owner requests a different style of caretaking. I stick to their schedules, ensuring that the temporary transition into my home is as enjoyable & stress-free as possible (most of my bookings happen to be boarding in my home, rather than in the owner's). I am always available to house-sit & watch your pet from the comfort of their own home, if that is a better fit for your pet.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Surfside
Alex was great with Thor! He was patient, caring, and made Thor feel comfortable right away. You could tell he genuinely enjoys being around dogs, and Thor was so excited to see him which made me feel even better leaving him in Alex’s care. He was also super communicative and reliable throughout everything. Definitely recommend him!
Charuwan took the absolute BEST care of my Dubu. From the moment we arrived, Dubu instantly felt comfortable and walked right into her house like she’d been there before. Charuwan has such warm, calm, and loving energy — and I truly believe Dubu felt that too. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos of all their little adventures, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely cares. When we came to pick Dubu up, she didn’t even want to leave! That alone says everything. We were also a little late picking her up, and Charuwan was incredibly kind and understanding about it. I’m so grateful we found her and will absolutely be booking again 🤍🐶
Gustavo and Ales were incredible. Our dog Micah came along on her trip to Miami and spent about a week staying with them. He came home tired and happy each day. Ales was always flexible, even when we had to change days and times, definitely more than most sitters would have been. Always so friendly and communicative - would highly recommend them to anyone. Will definitely use them again when we come next time!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Surfside
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Surfside on Rover is $40.25 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,694 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Surfside. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Surfside commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 3,694 sitters in Surfside, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
