“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with Hera! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease while we were away. Hera was happy, calm, and well cared for when we picked her up, which means everything to us. Michelle was also very kind, communicative, and professional throughout the entire process. I truly appreciate her dedication and attention to detail. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Couldn’t be happier to work with Jessica on my first Rover booking! Her thoughtfulness, attentiveness, and flexibility made me feel at ease when giving away my pet for the first time. Booked our next stay with her right away.”
“Alicia was wonderful, my dog stayed with her for 19 days. I had never left my dog for that long. Alicia was so good about sending pictures and giving me updates along there way. I will 100% use her service again.”
“George was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of Sky. He made her feel so comfortable, loved, and at home, as if she were part of his own family. It was clear that he genuinely cared about her and made sure she was happy and well taken care of. Knowing that Sky was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind. I’m beyond grateful for the love and attention he gave her. I would 100% trust George with Sky again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own. Thank you so much, George!”
“Mallie was SO great with Betty! She was flexible with my flight schedule and kept Betty a little later so she would be home alone for a smaller period of time. I felt comfortable leaving her knowing that she was in great hands. I already have her booked for another weekend!”
“Marisol and her partner were AMAZING. our girl looked so happy in every video and picture. We felt so rest assured that she was cared for while we were away for a week long birthday trip! She sent updates every single day multiple times a day and I never had to worry about what was happening or if she was ok. We will definitely be rebooking with her again for any future trips we take!!!”

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I love making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m available 24/7 for pet care, including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays. Whether your pet needs a walk, company during the day, or care while you travel, I’m here to help. My background helps me understand each pet’s behavior, nutritional needs, and daily routines. I pay close attention to their appetite, energy, and comfort, and carefully follow your feeding and care instructions. As a dog mom to my dachshund, Pistachio, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I offer affection, walks, playtime, and mental enrichment, adapting to your pet’s age, personality, and energy level. You can expect regular photos, videos, and updates so you know how your pet is doing. I speak English and Spanish and would love to meet you and your furry best friend! Well I am working part time, but I am very flexible , I like to take them out to big and safe places , where they can run ,play , and burn all there Energy , I also like to bring toys for them to have fun . I make sure they have a good time and feel comfortable with my company always treating them very gently and kind. I’m always making sure they have enough water and food and if you’ll let me I’ll spoil them with some dog goodies!!! Also you can be certain that they will be always walked with a leash in safe and fun places.
“I cannot recommend Amanda enough! She truly cares about Leo as if he were her own. She is incredibly diligent with his feeding schedule, daily walks, and potty breaks, making sure he stays on his routine while I'm away. It’s such a peace of mind knowing he’s in great hands. I’m so impressed that I’ll be a weekly customer from now on. Thank you, Amanda!”
“Raquel is awesome! She took care of my baby girl. Excellent communication, she is very communicative. She sent me videos and photos everyday and gave me updates. Highly recommended. Thank you Raquel!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid and two beagles of my own over the last 20 years. I lost my girl in April and looking to show your pet some love until I am ready for a new one! I work from home and am very flexible. Occasionally play tennis or hang out with friends but am never gone too long. For dogs who are social, I live near many dog parks and love to bring them out with me to a patio for dinner. I live in a condo complex one block from the beach and a few blocks from several parks. I love walking around ocean drive or south of fifth but am just as happy snuggling on the couch, whatever works best for your fur baby!
About: I am a registered nurse working a FT hybrid job for my hospital’s IT department. I used to take care of humans but now I wish to help take care of your furry loved ones! I have experience with small and large dog & cat breeds. I will gladly check in, walk, and play with them either before my workday start at 8 am, during my lunch break, and/or after work at 5 pm. Mostly free on weekends. Not only will I check in on them, but for drop in visits, I will also clean their food/water bowls and litter spaces! Paying close attention to special instructions provided and sending all the cute photos of your babies and of the place for your peace of mind :) I work a full time hybrid job 8:30-5pm Monday to Friday. I go into the office every other week Tuesday-Thurs, on those days I’ll be available only before 7 am and after 7pm. On remote days, I’m mostly available during early morning (6-8 am), lunch time (12-1 pm) and in the evenings during the weekday (5:30-10 pm). I’m available any time during most weekends. I am very careful when opening doors or fences, I will not let your furry loved one run away. I easily earn an animals trust.
“Stephanie and her family is very nice and our puppy had great time with them. She keeps sending us pictures and giving us updates all the time. We really appreciate her.”
“I had to take a last minute trip that was planned for my birthday, and looked into any available sitters to leave my precious princess onboarded. I saw Randal and Jocelyn's page and liek that they had so much experience with different breeds of dogs, and pictures too. They were super quick to reply and set up a metting and even accommodated my bydu schedule! Despite my nerves they were super patient and understanding throughout the whole hand off and made sure to check for allergies or any other important information, even down to her usual feeding schedule. Which may not seem that important but once you create a routine with your dog everyday they are used to that cycle and changing it can become chaotic. Will 100% book again, very great handoff too! She was clean and healthy and happy, ready to come home but she looked healthy and well taken care off, and that as a dog mom makes me feel like great, that I left her in good hands!”
“Irina is very experienced and she cares about the pet’s physical and mental well-being. She is extremely communicative and shares a lot of expertly filmed videos and framed snapshots. I saved all of her pictures/videos to my camera roll because they are all beautiful. Irina also lives in an ideal setup: Beautiful, walk-up unit with great accessibility to the condo yard and neighborhood. Please consider Irina for all of your pet sitting opportunities.”
“Truly could not have asked for a better sitter!!! This was my first time using Rover, and I was quite nervous, but Kayla was willing to FaceTime me and ease all of my anxiety. The drop off was seamless, I got multiple updates, pictures, and videos of my pup throughout his say, and most importantly he was happy as could be. My return flight ended up getting canceled, so I needed to extend the stay, and Winnie was so accommodating! I really can’t recommend these gals enough!”
“Chelsea was amazing with Duke. I was really concerned since I had never boarded him before and it couldn’t have gone better. She sent me pictures daily and he was super happy!!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with this dog boarding service! It was my first time leaving my puppy with a boarding service, and I was always anxious about leaving her with people I did not know. This time I did not have a choice, and I was so lucky to find Tiffany. She sent me daily updates with photos, videos, and comments, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy looked happy and well cared for throughout her stay, and she was cheerful and relaxed when I picked her up. It was clear she had been in great hands during my trip. We will definitely use Tiffany's services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and reliable place for their pet.”
“I’m so happy I found Jessie on Rover! She took wonderful care of my dog Pikachu while I was away with my family and sent me photos and videos every day, which gave me such peace of mind. He had plenty of space to play in her backyard and came home happy and relaxed — like he had his own little vacation too! Thank you, Jessie, for being so caring, responsible, and attentive. I’ll definitely trust you with Pikachu again! ❤️🐾”
“Juan did a fantastic job with deacy!!! We had a long trip and Juan sent updates and pictures to us every day which we are really thankful for. He kept our dog stimulated with walks and trips to a fenced in yard that he could explore and gave him tons of cuddles. Will be requesting his services again for sure!”
“This is the second time I leave my Siberian husky with Bertha and I can’t feel more reassured he is in good hands. She occasionally sends me photos of how he is and communicates effectively. I will definitely book with her in the future!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Surfside
Navaira was wonderful with my cat, Mr. Puss in Boots. This is our first time leaving him with someone other than a close friend or a family member, the first time using the app., and the first time leaving him in someone else home. You can imagine cats don't adapt easily to changes, let alone to multiple changes at the same time. However, Navaira made him feel so comfortable from the second they met. Mr. Puss quickly got close to Navaira, within hours, he felt right at home, sleeping, eating, stooling, cozzing up to Navaira, seeking for affection. Navaira was also really good at constantly communicating with me, sending pics, reporting on everything. I had a concern that Navaira had a cat and didn't know how they would react to each other (another variable into the mix). However, she immediately mitigate any potential situation by keeping them separate and slowly introducing introducing each other. No issues at all. I highly recommend hiring her.
I seriously cannot say enough amazing things about Leanet! She was absolutely incredible from start to finish! Leaving my dog with someone else can be nerve-racking, but Leanet made me feel completely comfortable and at ease the entire time. She constantly sent me the sweetest updates, pictures, and videos, and I never once had to wonder how my dog was doing. It was so clear that she genuinely cared for her and treated her like her own! On top of everything, she is just the sweetest, kindest person, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Having that peace of mind while I was away was truly priceless. I am SO grateful I found her and will 100% be bringing my dog back to her anytime I need a sitter! I couldn’t recommend her more!! ❤️
My dog was very well taken care of, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I really appreciated the video updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and in good hands. I highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy!
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!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Surfside is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 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.
There are 4,531 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Surfside. About 90% of Surfside sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
