“The sitter I’ve used a few times was not available for my last trip so I searched for a new family. Happily I found Patty. We did a meet & greet so my senior lab and I could meet them and see her home & yard. It was an 8 day trip. Patty sent me photos and updates regularly which really put my mind at ease. I would not hesitate to leave my boy with Patty again!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for over 20 years now. I love animals. I also have cats for several years now. I adore and cherish them all. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I'm available all the time to care for them in my house. I can walk them in the mornings and evening. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog and cat to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate a small dog if needed.

“Paula was a wonderful host! Coco had the best time playing in the grassed yards, sunbathing and relaxing under the trees, along with Paula's other dogs. We got constant communication, lots of photos and videos and daily updates. She also gave her the meds she needed, even gave her a bath at the end and washed and cleaned all her toys, blankets, etc. We could feel the love and dedication to our little baby during her stay and that is all we wanted, really - that Coco felt loved and safe the whole time we were away, like she feels with us!”

Definitivamente volvería a contar con ella!”

I can't speak highly enough about the level of love and care Rex received from Patty and her family. I haven't left Rex with anyone I don't know before, as I was skeptical that anyone would take care of him well enough. Knowing I had to be out of the country for 2 weeks, I looked through countless profiles on Rover and finally decided to reach out to Patty. We met within days to see if it would be a good fit. I could tell right away that this wasn't just a job for Patty- she really just loves dogs (my kind of person!). From the meet and greet, she promised to treat him like her own, and she most definitely did. I think she sensed my nervousness about leaving Rex and she sent me multiple updates and videos daily. She took Rex on mini adventures and he seemed to be totally happy. I loved getting all the pics as it definitely gave me peace of mind and allowed me to have fun on my trip. I think the quality of his stay can be summed up when I arrived at the door to pick him up. He started barking to protect Patty's house like he was protecting his own:) When new travel opportunities come up, I will most definitely ask Patty to take care of Rex again, as I can't imagine him having a better stay anywhere.
Carolina was great! She took wonderful care of our dog from Wednesday to Saturday. She was incredibly communicative, sending multiple photo updates throughout the day. When he wasn’t eating much, she immediately let me know, took my suggestions, and successfully got him to eat. Her big fenced yard was also perfect for him to get all his sniffs! She was prompt in scheduling our meet and greet and made us feel instantly comfortable leaving him. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!
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.
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!

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.
