About: I grew up with animals, but since I moved to Miami I’ve been fostering and caring for shelter dogs. I have experience in dogs of all ages and sizes- especially seniors. I have enough treats and toys for a puptastic time! I currently am a biology pre-vet student who studies from home and loves to spend time with animals. I am happy to accommodate to any certain needs! I offer respect for the animals and the owners, with love and understanding. I treat the animal like they are my own, giving any additional care needed. My goal is to make the owner and the pet the most calm and relaxed in each situation.

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 was able to comfortably house my cat Truffles while I was gone for vacation. When I dropped off truffles she showed me all of the amenities and introduced me the friends truffles were going to meet, giving me confidence that she knew what she was doing. Over my vacation, pilar was able to send some pictures and updates on Truffles. I felt very reassured despite being more than 1000 miles away. Would highly recommend having your pet stay with Pilar!

Madison took amazing care of our cat, Roxy! She kept us at ease by sending daily updates and was always quick to share photos whenever we asked. It was clear that Roxy was in a safe, comfortable environment and was very well cared for. When we picked her up, she seemed happy and relaxed, which meant a lot to us. We would absolutely trust Madison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 3,816 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in University Park. About 91% of University Park 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
