“I’m always so nervous to try a new sitter for Niko - I spend hours researching and reading reviews and then worry all day usually when I drop him off haha. I chose Janet because of the amazing reviews and boy, I’m SO glad I did. I didn’t worry at all about him all day with all the updates and pictures Janet sent me, ensuring he was safe and having a blast. He’s been sleeping since he got home, he was so tuckered out from all the fun he had with Janet and his friends. I will DEFINITELY book again! Thank you!”

“I was visit from out of town for a medical conference. I couldn’t bring my dog to the conference. Laura was so understanding and kind. She understood I was not going to be a repeat customer. However she stepped up to help me and watch Peaches. She gave her medicine too.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I entrusted Justine with Boba, my 2.5-year-old CaneCorxer, and couldn't be happier with the experience. Justine and her boyfriend went above and beyond in ensuring Boba was well-taken care of. From long walks to runs and overnight stays, they made sure Boba felt at home and loved. Their dedication and genuine affection for pets shone through.

About: We are a young, active couple without children who truly love animals. Vlad grew up with a Scottish Fold cat named Junya and a Papillon named Alice, while Kristina grew up with a Yorkshire Terrier named Leo. Our beloved pets now live with our parents while we are building our own life together. We have already had the pleasure of pet sitting Missy, a Goldendoodle, and TT, a Pekingese. Both experiences brought us so much joy that we decided to start pet sitting regularly and share our time, attention, and love with more pets. When your pet stays with us, you can count on us to carefully follow all of your instructions and routines, keep you regularly updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away. My wife and I both work from home, so we have a very flexible schedule for boarding. My wife is a freelancer and can take your pet outside for 2–4 walks throughout the day. We are happy to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and care routine to keep them comfortable and on their normal schedule. We don’t have children or other pets, and we only board one pet at a time so your pet can receive our full attention, care, and love. We live in a spacious apartment in a very walkable and dog-friendly community with a dog park. We always follow the owner’s instructions, including avoiding other dogs when requested. Our home is pet-friendly, with no dangerous plants or fragile items within reach.
About: I have over three years of experience in veterinary assistant classes, where I learned animal handling, basic health monitoring, safety procedures, grooming assistance, and proper pet care. In addition to my veterinary education, I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for pets of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing exercise, and giving pets the love and attention they deserve. My veterinary background allows me to recognize changes in behavior and help ensure pets stay safe, healthy, and comfortable while in my care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I am organized, dependable, and able to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets receive proper attention and care is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Safety is always my top priority when caring for pets. Thanks to my veterinary assistant training, I understand the importance of proper handling, supervision, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their family is away.
“We were going to a show in Tampa and our pup gets anxious with storms so we dropped her off with Dawn while we went to the show. The show was longer than expected and Dawn was very kind and watched Nala later than the agreed upon time. She is a great communicator and very kind. Highly recommend!”

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 Westchase 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
