“Yara and her daughter were just amazing and so loving! Our little guy was super happy and it showed in all the pictures Yara would send. Thank you so much Yara for taking such wonderful care of our little guy.”
“This was my first time ever leaving my senior dog (17 years old with dementia) in the care of someone outside of my family, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than with Patty. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thoughtful, responsive, and reassuring. It was clear she had experience with older dogs - she asked great questions beforehand to better understand my dog's needs and even had helpful suggestions on what to bring to make him comfortable during his stay. Throughout the day, Patty and her wonderful family made sure my pup felt right at home. She sent frequent photos and videos, which brought me so much peace of mind. I could tell he was being treated with love, patience, and genuine care. Patty went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and I felt comfortable. She was extremely accommodating, and I truly appreciated her calm and compassionate approach. If I have the opportunity, I would 100% trust Patty to watch over my dog again. Thank you so much, Patty, for taking such amazing care of our boy!”
“We have no words of appreciation for Marlene and Frankie. We had never seen a better dog sitter than them. We spent almost a week away with peace of mind knowing our dog was in the perfect place, with so many updates per day, seeing him happy in the videos and pictures in a safe and loving home. We will definitely come back and can't recommend them enough!”
“Could not have asked for a better sitter for my schnauzer Bruji. I was skeptical leaving her with a sitter because she had never stayed anywhere before. Mercedes sent me pics of Bruji on a daily basis and she looked happy as can be. I actually thought she would not want to come back to me for the spoiledness she received. Thank You Mercedes you are a blessing.”
About: Crecí rodeada de mascotas de todo tipo, por lo que tengo una conexión natural con los animales desde muy joven. Tengo experiencia atendiendo tanto a cachorros llenos de energía que quieren jugar todo el día, como a perritos mayores que solo buscan un lugar tranquilo para descansar con mucha paciencia. Sé cómo seguir estrictamente los horarios de alimentación y respetar las rutinas específicas de paseos de cada mascota. Como paso todo el día en casa, puedo ofrecer una supervisión constante y amorosa, garantizando que tu perrito nunca se sienta solo ni estresado y que disfrute al máximo de nuestros espacios. A typical day starts with a morning bathroom break in my secure fenced yard, followed by breakfast. Since I am at home full-time, your dog will enjoy constant supervision, companionship, and multiple potty breaks every 1-2 hours. I have dedicated playtime in the afternoon, short walks, and plenty of relaxation in my spacious living room. Before bedtime, I enjoy a quiet evening walk, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and fully integrated into my daily routine. I live in a beautiful, clean, and spacious two-story townhouse in the 33172 area. The house is completely smoke-free and secure. My biggest highlight is the large, fully fenced backyard with a gorgeous lake view where dogs can play safely. For extra safety, the front entrance is also gated and fenced, preventing any accidental escapes. Your pet will have full access to the open first floor and can comfortably relax on the furniture or the bed.
“I left my dog for a week and he had a great time with Jennifer and her dogs, definitely will book again and recommend 100%, she was very flexible with time and always sending photos. Thank you”
“I can't say enough good things about Francesca! She took exceptional care of my dog while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Francesca was incredibly communicative, providing regular updates and delightful photos that kept me connected with my pup. I highly recommend Francesca to anyone in need of a reliable pet sitter.”
“Paula is the best! Would not leave our deaf fur baby with anyone but her. She caters to our Nala’s special needs. She communicates and sends us pics to let us know how Nala’s stay is going. Thank you for another wonderful experience!”
“This is the second time Aisa has taken care of Kai and again we had the same great experience :) Grateful I can trust her with little Kai. Really appreciate her flexibility and picture updates.”
“I contacted Ana last minute to pet sit my mini doxie Nala after I lost contact with my pet sitter that I would usually leave Nala with, and I’m so glad I did. Ana and her husband give Nala a lot of loving and attention and I can tell how much they love taking care of her (nala can be a handful sometimes). I go out of my way to go to them and I don’t mind because I know my dog will be really taken care of. 10/10 with communication and care. Will be my go to sitter from now on 😊”
“Angela took amazing care of Bucky! We left him with her for a couple of days and he had a great time. She made sure to provide daily updates of how he was doing. Would highly recommend her, and will definitely book with her again next time we need a sitter.”
“Patricia and her girls are a dream team! They took care of my dog as if it were theirs. Kept me informed at all times and were very loving towards my dog. Will definitely consider them for next time!”
“Absolutely a 5-star experience. Janeth was an amazing sitter—she treated Bentley with care and loving attention. She provided photos and videos of Bentley twice a day and was very thorough in updating us about his day. Highly recommend!”
“Monica & Alonso took the best care of our beautiful Ginger. They were pacient and understood exactly what she needed to feel comfortable and open up. We received daily updates and plenty of pictures. When we picked Ginger up, it was clear that she had an amazing time and was cared for with love. We'll definitely come back ❤️”
“I left my doggy daughter Maya for 2 nights, Lisany took excellent care of her and even sent me a picture & video of Maya while in her care. I look foward to in the future whenever I can't take my doggy child with me, to leave her again with Lisany.”
“Mariana & Carlos did an amazing job watching Charlie and Gus! They sent pictures and updates. Charlie and Gus came home happy and tired. I would definitely use Mariana and Carlos for future visits!”
“The best experience we have had for Luna so far!! Carolina took care of Luna as if she were her own, fully personalized, caring, loving. Luna stayed as part of a family and got well with everyone. She never let Luna stay alone. She is very experienced with dogs and understands your pet needs. I really recommend Carolina, your dog will be in great hands, happy, taken care with love. Will book again with her for sure!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - University Park
Jennifer was sweet and kind when we had the meet and greet and I knew that she was going to be taking care of our two dogs for 17 days. I felt from the first visit that she was a very caring person and truly loves dogs. Once I was away she would send me pictures and share that they were doing great. I definitely will be using Jennifer again when I need to go on vacation.
Our whippet, Nikita, has stayed with Angela a few times now and they’ve all been a wonderful experience! Nikita is always so excited and happy to see Angela, she feels right at home when she’s dropped off. Angela takes such great care of Nikita and lets us know how she’s doing during our stay. We feel comfortable having our pup stay with Angela and know she’s getting all the love and care.
I can’t express enough how wonderful and at ease Carolina made me feel about leaving my pup with her for a week-long vacation. This was my first time using a dog sitting service and she made me feel comfortable and confident about my decision to leave Theo in her care. She shared updates, photos and multiple daily check ins throughout their time together and although he was anxious the first few nights she reassured me that she was doing everything she could to make him feel comfortable and at home. I would absolutely recommend her and will be selecting her for the next time I need a caring sitter ♥️ thank you Carolina!
Sara took exceptional care of my dog from start to finish. She was incredibly thorough in learning every detail about his routine, habits, and preferences, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. When I picked him up, he looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. Even better, he settled right back into his normal routine at home as if nothing had changed, which says a lot about the care and attention he received. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I would gladly trust her with my dog again in the future.
Excelente servicio mi mascota jamás se había quedado con otra persona y yo tenía mis dudas pero la verdad ella y toda su familia han tratado a mi perrito con un cariño extraordinario siempre se comunica contigo manda fotos ,videos el se siente como si estuviera en casa yo recomiendo de todo corazón a ella es muy profesional y en conjunto con su familia hacen un tremendo equipo para que tu mascota se sienta cómodo y confiado yo confío en ella y se que en otro momento volveré a prescindir de sus servicios la recomiendo 100 %
She was amazing with her! I picked up our baby and she looked so happy! I was sent pictures, I was reassured that she was well taken care of the whole time she was with them. I can’t thank you enough. We needed someone to watch her very last minute, and even be kept over night and she agreed on such short notice which was so sweet of her! She’ll be the first one we reach out to if we need a pet sitter in the future!
What a great first experience we had with Janet! We could not be happier. Janet and her kids took care of Rocco like he was part of their own family. We received daily updates, pictures, and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Thank you again, Janet, for taking such great care of our boy!
Pilar and Jonathan took great care or my 3 babies. They had frequent walks and plenty of attention. They also took them to the park and even took one of my babies to work with her. When I tell you they had fun.... They had fun! They were exhausted when we arrived at home. I would definitely book with them again. Thank you Pilar and Jonathan!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ada. She was truly incredible from start to finish. She sent me daily pictures and videos that gave me complete peace of mind and showed just how happy and well cared my dog, Thanos, was. It was clear he wasn’t just being watched, he was genuinely loved. Knowing Thanos was safe, comfortable, and treated like family made my time away so much easier. I am incredibly grateful to have found her and would trust her again without hesitation. Highly, highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - University Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in University Park on Rover is $44.4 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 3,720 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across University Park. 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 University Park 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 University Park 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 University Park 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 University Park.
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 University Park 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.
