“Marlene and Frank were amazing with my dog Coco! From the start, their home felt welcoming, clean, and full of space for the dogs to play — including their own playground. It was my first time booking with them, and they made me feel completely at ease by sending lots of photo updates showing how happy and well cared for he was. Their communication was great, and it was clear they truly love what they do. I’m so grateful to have found them and would absolutely recommend them! 💗🐾Marlene, Coco looks forward to seeing you again very soon!”


About: Crecí rodeada de mascotas de todo tipo, por lo que desarrollé una conexión natural con los animales desde muy joven. Tengo experiencia cuidando tanto cachorros llenos de energía como perros mayores que requieren más paciencia, comodidad y atención a sus necesidades individuales. Respeto cuidadosamente los horarios de alimentación, paseos, descanso y cualquier rutina especial de cada mascota. Como paso gran parte del día en casa, puedo ofrecer supervisión cercana, compañía y mucho cariño. Mi objetivo es que cada perro se sienta seguro, cómodo, acompañado y verdaderamente como en casa durante su estadía. A typical day is tailored to your dog’s usual routine, personality, and needs. Since I am home full-time, I’m able to provide close supervision, companionship, frequent potty breaks, personalized playtime, walks, enrichment, and plenty of time to rest and relax. I intentionally care for only a small number of dogs at a time so each guest can receive individual attention and enjoy a calm, home-style environment. I do my best to keep feeding, potty, activity, and sleep routines as familiar as possible, helping every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home while their family is away. My home is clean, comfortable, and designed to help dogs feel safe and at ease in the 33172 area. One of its best features is the large, fully fenced backyard with a beautiful lake view, giving dogs plenty of space to explore, relax, and enjoy the outdoors. The front entrance is also gated, adding another layer of security. Guests can enjoy the open first floor and are welcome to relax comfortably on the couch or wherever they feel most at home. The surrounding area is great for peaceful walks, with plenty of interesting sights and smells along the way. Outdoor time and walks are adapted to each dog’s comfort level and behavior, so they can enjoy the environment safely and at their own pace. Because I intentionally care for only a small number of dogs at a time, I’m able to supervise closely and adapt each stay to your dog’s personality, routine, and needs.
“I can’t say enough good things about Francesca! She took such great care of my dog, and it was clear from the start how much my dog loved being around her. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and trustworthy. I also really appreciated how she kept me updated throughout the day with messages and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she truly cares about the pets she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

About: I have over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for my family pets and my own dogs, so animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have more than 15 years of experience fostering and helping re-home dogs and cats. Through fostering, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each animal’s unique personality, history, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets who may be shy, nervous, energetic, or still adjusting to new people and environments. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat that responsibility with the care and respect it deserves. My schedule is currently open for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday through Sunday, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. I am also available for boarding and will do my best to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. During walks and drop-ins, you can expect dependable care, clear communication, and updates so you know how your pet is doing. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, and companionship depending on your pet’s needs. For boarding, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and any special instructions before their stay. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Guest pets have access to a private, air-conditioned room where they can lounge, relax, and sleep comfortably. The room has a cozy pullout couch, plenty of natural light, and a private entrance, creating a calm and comfortable space for pets to feel at ease. I also have a private fenced patio that is separate from my backyard, as well as a larger backyard area that guest pets can enjoy with supervision. This gives pets space to stretch, explore, and get fresh air in a safe environment. I can also crate your dog if needed or preferred, and I will always follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, routines, sleeping arrangements, medication, walks, and any safety precautions. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - University Park
I can’t thank you enough for taking such wonderful care of Chewbacca. He had the best time with your dog, they were like siblings! I could see how happy he was when I picked him up; he was beaming. It was clear he really bonded with you. Chewbacca had so much fun with his new friend that he came home completely tired, which is super rare since he’s usually very active at night. I’m so grateful, thank you for everything!

Chewie had a great time with his fur nanny tonight! He stayed for 2.5 hours, and when I picked him up he was so happy and full of energy. It was clear he felt comfortable and well cared for and he even made some new furry friends. Nayerlin was attentive and proactive the entire time, she kept sending videos and pictures of chewie which gave me so much peace of mind. I really appreciate the love and attention she gave him. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Francesca! She took such great care of my dog, and it was clear from the start how much my dog loved being around her. She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and trustworthy. I also really appreciated how she kept me updated throughout the day with messages and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she truly cares about the pets she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - University Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in University Park on Rover is $37.57 per day (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,110 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across University Park. 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 University Park 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.

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.
