“Chase and Skye are always at ease when we drop them off and that hasn’t been the case with other sitters. I know they are being well cared for and don’t worry.”
“Oh, my goodness! I have a very recently rescued dog, and I needed to go out of town overnight. Jocelyn was SO wonderful with my dog! She made sure he was comfortable in her home and she sent lots of pictures. She spent time with Humphrey, gave him treats and cuddles. He had a very nice visit! We will definitely come back next time. Thank you, Jocelyn!”
“Great family and great environment. Flexible hours to fit our needs with inconsistent schedule. Great socialization with their dog, and good interaction with the children. They really make him feel at home.”
About: **We may have lost our fur babies, but we certainly haven't lost our love for dogs!** ❤️🐾 We're Mike and Charity, a husband-and-wife team who believe that dogs aren't *just pets.* They're family. They're our best friends, our loyal companions, our four-legged children, and sometimes, the very best part of a long, difficult day. For years, our home was filled with the sounds of wagging tails, happy paws, squeaky toys, sloppy kisses, and the unconditional love that only a dog can give. First, there was our beautiful Golden Retriever, **Ally**, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in the spring of 2015. Then came our sweet yellow Labrador Retriever, **Izzy**, who blessed our lives with more than nine wonderful years of love, laughter, companionship, and unforgettable memories. We recently said our heartbreaking goodbye to Izzy in September 2026, and to say our hearts are still healing would be an understatement. **Our home is a little quieter these days. Our hearts are a little heavier. And there's a special kind of emptiness where four paws and a wagging tail used to be.** While we're not quite ready to welcome another dog into our family permanently, we know one thing for certain: **We still have an enormous amount of love to give.** And that's why we're here! We would be absolutely delighted to welcome your precious doggo into our home, even if it's just for a little while. Whether you're heading out of town, taking a vacation, or simply need someone you can trust to love and care for your furry family member, we'd be honored to help. We're not looking at this as simply pet sitting. We're looking at it as an opportunity to share the love that Ally and Izzy taught us so much about. **When your dog stays with us, they're not just a guest. They're family.** That means plenty of cuddles, belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, conversations (yes, we absolutely talk to dogs!), hugs, and an unlimited supply of nose boops. And if your pup prefers a quiet afternoon curled up beside us, that's perfectly wonderful, too. We understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved companion in someone else's care. We've been those pet parents ourselves. We know the worry, the questions, and the desire to know that your baby is safe, comfortable, happy, and genuinely loved while you're away. **We'll treat your dog with the same tenderness, patience, attention, and affection that we gave Ally and Izzy.** We'll respect their routines, their personalities, their needs, and all the little quirks that make them uniquely yours. Perhaps the greatest gift our girls left us was the understanding that love doesn't end when we say goodbye. It simply finds new ways to be shared. And maybe, just maybe, having a few more happy paws, wet noses, and wagging tails visiting our home will help heal two hearts that miss their girls terribly. **Your dog gets a loving home away from home. We get the joy of sharing our love with another furry friend. And everybody gets unlimited boops!** 🐶❤️ We can't wait to meet your best friend! **With love, belly rubs, and a whole lot of puppy kisses,** **Mike & Charity** 🐾 *In loving memory of Ally & Izzy — forever our girls, forever in our hearts.* One of the wonderful things about our current schedules is that we have plenty of time to devote to your furry family member! Between the two of us, at least one of us is typically home throughout the day, so your pup will have lots of companionship, attention, and love. We're not the kind of pet parents who believe a dog should spend the day alone waiting for someone to come home. We enjoy having a four-legged companion nearby, whether we're relaxing, watching TV, working around the house, or heading outside for some fresh air. We'll follow your dog's regular feeding, walking, potty, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. Our primary time away together is typically Sunday mornings for church, and we'll always communicate about scheduling in advance. Your dog won't just fit into our routine. We'll happily make them part of our day! Having raised and loved two wonderful fur babies of our own, we understand that trusting someone else with your dog is a BIG deal. We don't take that responsibility lightly! Our home is a place where dogs are treated like family, not simply boarded as guests. We offer a comfortable, loving environment with plenty of attention, companionship, and affection. Since we're currently without pets of our own, your pup won't have to compete with our resident dogs for attention! We respect every dog's individual needs, personality, and comfort level. Some dogs want to cuddle right beside you, while others prefer their own quiet space. We're happy to accommodate both! We'll carefully follow your instructions regarding food, medications, walks, sleeping arrangements, and other special needs. If your dog is crate-trained and needs their crate for comfort or safety, we're happy to accommodate that with advance arrangements. We'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your precious pup is being loved and cared for. Our philosophy is simple: **We care for your dog the way we always wanted someone to care for ours.**

“We left our 2 pitties with Renee and her husband- I was so nervous to leave my girls while we went on vacation. I was worried they would be scared and sad. But Renee and her family were so amazing and updated me so often with photos and videos. It kept me at ease on vacation knowing they were so well cared for. I could see how clearly my girls were spoiled with so much love and snuggles !! If we ever need a doggy sitter in the future , I will 100% be using them again!”
“Our 2 Havanese loved their time with Erica and her family! The felt very comfortable and at home with Erica! Erica kept in contact with us and shared pictures of our ‘kids’ during their overnight visit! We will be returning!”
About: I have taken care for dogs for as long as I can remember I have a dog of my own her name is princess coco. She’s great with other dogs and will be enthusiastic about becoming friends with your furry pet ! I’m a full-time student with a flexible schedule which means I’m home so often that I will be able to give your pet consistent attentive care whether that’s playtime, walks or even keeping them company I have a super friendly Maltese she loves making new friends.

“Katie and her family cared for our pup while we were away and Zoey (our pup) had the absolute best time! Their dog, Bailey and Zoey had such fun playing with each other every day. Katie sent me videos and pics, which I loved!! Her first night home she conked out not long after we got home. We even had an unexpected visit to the vet the day before we left and Katie had no issue administering her medication. She will be our go to sitter for any of our trips in the future. If you want a loving family environment with a pup that likes to play, then I would highly recommend Katie!”
About: I’ve had many pets over the years, dogs, cats and chinchillas included. I’ve been dog sitting for many years but just recently have become more interested with the idea of pet sitting. I currently have lots of free time during the weekends and most weekdays and would love to fill it by spending time with some animals. In my home my animals have a tight feeding schedule and are constantly being played with and given love just as I would when caring for any animal.
“This was the first time we needed a dog sitter, so we were a little nervous. Caroline was wonderful from beginning to end. She welcomed our husky Rocky into her home and treated him as family. It was assuring, and a wonderful surprise to receive picture's of him while we were away. It put us at ease, so we could enjoy our trip. I would definitely recommend calling Caroline if you're in need of a dog sitter. I would absolutely use DogVacay again!”
About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’ve regularly watched my friends’ dogs and recently pet sat for my mom’s client for 4 days, where I made sure their pet was safe, comfortable, fed, and well cared for. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to animals’ needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work at Amazon and I do night shifts 1am-11:50am Friday-Monday and my Off days would be Tuesday -Thursday would also be available Friday-Monday after 1pm I treat every pet like they’re my own! I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime and attention, and stick to their normal routine. I love giving pets lots of love and making sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their fur baby is happy and well taken care of.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I can remember. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. As well as personally having 4 dogs myself. Flexible with Schedule, will try to adjust my time to clients needs. Afternoons and weekends preferably, but not restricted to those times. Thank you . Fenced in half an acre backyard.

“We have a new rescue dog that came with some issues and Daniel & Jessica took very good care of our scared little pup. So thankful for them and we will be using them again! 100% reccomend!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Tahrena and her family! They took wonderful care of my puppy while I was away from Land O’ Lakes, Florida from December 26th to January 6th. Leaving my puppy for that long was nerve-racking, but Tahrena completely put me at ease. We communicated every day, and she consistently sent photos and videos, which truly helped calm my anxiety and reassured me that my puppy was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was clear my puppy was treated like part of the family, not just a guest. Tahrena is kind, attentive, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. I would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. Thank you, Tahrena, for taking such great care of my puppy! 🐶❤️”

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Weeki Wachee can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Weeki Wachee 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 Weeki Wachee.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Weeki Wachee. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Weeki Wachee 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
