About: Hi there! Matthew and Sophia here, we are a young married couple with no kids so we treat every dog like a part of our little family! We both are fairly active and involved so we enjoy adding new pets to our day to day! **Please note that Sophia handles all the bookings and app stuff, when you reach out to us, Sophia will be the one replying, ALWAYS!! We both have had many years of experience taking care of not only dogs and cats but livestock as well. You will be kept up to date on EVERYTHING as we love to communicate and send lots and lots of photos! I (Sophia) am currently working from home so it allows me to be with my own pet and the pet I am watching all day long. I can be available to keep and eye on pets and make sure all needs are met. I have a fenced in yard, a male dog that loves other dogs, he’s really well socialized. Also previously worked as a vet tech so I have experience in taking care of more medication dependent animals.
“Our Tula doesn’t take to just anyone right away- but Bob and Keri had her feeling like a family member in short order! They are loving, detailed and excellent with communication to owners. We have already rebooked! She cuddled, walked, played and cuddled some more. These are loving, care-filled sitters!”
“Coco had the best day at daycare! She came home calm, happily tired, and smelling great, even with an adorable new bandana. They give constant detailed updates throughout the day which gives such peace of mind. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“My dog, Harlan, is a rescue we've had for a year. We recently had an event at our house that included over 30 adults and children who he has never met. I decided a pet sitter. Was a good option. Harlan was very nervous when we got to Christopher's house., but Christopher gained his trust quickly. A feat still not accomplished by friends Harlan knows well. Would definitely recommend.”
About: With a lifetime of experience in caring for dogs, my passion for pets runs deep. I have two adorable chihuahuas, Monkey and Cannoli, who are the apples of my eye. Raised in a household that always had dogs, I have cared for numerous animals over the years, honing my skills in providing top-notch pet care. My dog Monkey has special needs, so I am well-versed in giving extra attention to those who require it. I am dedicated to ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and well-attended to, making their time away from their owners as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I work from home, fully remote. So I am home all day, able to give full attention every day. My routine with my girls is about 4-5 walks per day, we go to the park at least 3x a week. Monkey and Cannoli are both friendly, naturally they’re chihuahuas so they have some sass. But they are very relaxed, and because they’re older, they are less temperamental. They love other small dogs and take well to medium and large dogs also. Monkey and cannoli pretty much rule my household, so they lounge on the couch or sunbathe on the balcony anytime they want. I have a treasure chest of toys that they pull out and play tug of war with each other during the day. Since I work from home, I normally put the TV or relaxing music on which makes for great nap time. We go on multiple walks a day, and play with toys throughout the day. My chihuahuas are snuggle bugs, so they normally cuddle up on my lap while I work.
About: I've taken care for dogs since I was a child. My truly love for them is unvaluable. They are my angels on the earth. Love each activities with them. I am completely available on weekdays and weekends. I can receive your pets and give them all the attention required as the case may be. My patio area is long and fenced, it meets safety guidelines. I don't have my own pets. I provide your pet with the same guidelines as an owner.
“We had a wonderful experience with Cassandra! This was Cookie’s first time staying with a sitter, and she made us feel completely at ease. She was very kind, communicative, and sent us several photo updates throughout the day. Cookie enjoyed walks, spent time with Cayenne, and came home happy and relaxed. We would absolutely trust Cassandra with Cookie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Nattalie was very kind and gentle with Bella. She sent me video and pictures with updates. Bella got along with her pup. I will definitely have Bella stay with Nattalie again.”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m patient, reliable, and trained in basic obedience and senior dog care. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. Pet care fits perfectly into our family routine. My partner works from home and I’m always home we love spending time with animals, so your dog will have plenty of company, playtime, and affection throughout the day. There’s always someone here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and part of the family. I have a fenced yard and 1 friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We also make sure all interactions are gentle and supervised.
“Amazing! This is the second time Yusel has cared for my dog. She is very accommodating and I highly recommend her! My dog enjoys her time at Yusel’s and has fun playing with her dog, Bella, as seen through photos provided :)”

This was Emmitt 2nd time at daycare and I love all the photos, videos and updates i received throughout the day. He’s super excited to be there when we pull up and super tired when we get home LOL He will probably start coming to Daycare once a week to start -Jill and her family are great!
Lina is very caring and loving to my toy poodle. Oscar loves to go to Lina’s with lots of interesting things to do including playing with toys, having a little human playmate - Lina’s little daughter, and running around with her own little doggies and other guests. Oscar comes home after a day of play happy and tired with a big smile on his face. I highly recommend Lina to watch your little fur babies!
We were nervous about leaving our dogs but Lauren was fantastic. She met the dogs ahead of their stay and made them feel comfortable. She sent us pictures and was very kind when we had to pick up the dogs late due to a horrible storm that slowed down our drive. I wouldn't hesitate to leave our dogs with her again.

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 Valrico 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.
