“Angela was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute when we discovered our cat couldn't stay with us at our Airbnb. She kept us updated every single day with sweet notes and photos of our cat, Marbles. She and her young daughter took such wonderful care of him, giving us total peace of mind while we were away. I will definitely be using her services again whenever I need a competent, caring, and reliable sitter! 5/5 stars!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would Alain sent me videos of Georgie several times a day along with updates. It was so very much appreciated. This was my first time using Rover and if ever the need again I would use Alain. Georgie had a great stay”
“Diana was great taking care Dexter. Everything great. We received daily pics and videos of Dexter. He also got a grooming while there. Thank you so much for your great service.”
“It was so hard to leave Stella for such a long period, but immediately relieved when the pictures and videos started coming in. Stella had a blast. She fit right in with the family.. I think she actually looked better picking her up than when I dropped her off. I could tell she had been brushed and combed, well taken care of.”
“Randy and Karen took care of my 2 babies! We’ve been looking for reliable people to look after our babies as we have no family in Ft. Myers. They shared pictures with us and our babies looked so happy and comfortable! We feel comfortable with Randy and Karen and will be booking them again!”
“Karen was amazing with Charlie. We couldn’t have asked for a better environment for him! We got many pic and video updates while we were gone over a 4 day span. Charlie has a new home away from home!”
“I left Luly with her for 2 days, she was very affectionate and kind with my puppy, she sent me several photos and videos about the moments with her, it was very nice to meet her and I highly recommend her, I will definitely leave Luly with Nereida next time”
“Beata did a great job accommodating for my dogs. There were some scheduling issues that she went the extra mile to fix which was really appreciated. The dogs loved her and I would definitely use her again!”
“Claudia was amazing! She took our little Sage last minute. From the first text to meeting her for the first time she was so welcoming and you can tell she loves dogs!highly recommend. Next time we are Cape Coral Sage will be staying with Claudia. 💗”
“First time I boarded my senior cat, and for over a week! I felt very comfortable when I met Brittany, she kept me updated on Onyx‘s adjustment process! I was so happy to hear that Onyx eventually made herself at home, I know that can take some time for cats, Brittany treated her like family! Will definitely be boarding with Brittany again if I ever need it!”
“Sandra is terrific in Cooper's first stay with her. She allowed us to come meet her before the stay. When we checked in she responded quickly and always sent a picture of Cooper and the other dogs having fun. She made us feel very confident in her abilitiesright from the start. We shall return to Sandra time and time again. Thank you Sandra, you're awesome.”
“My dogs had the best time on their vacation with Fabiana! She sent soo many pictures and communicated throughout their time away. I'm sure they will miss all the fun they had!”
“We are so comfortable leaving our dogs with Arleen and Daniel! They absolutely treat our dogs like they are family and are so kind in updating us everyday on how they are doing. They have our full trust when it comes to our kids.”
“Celea did a wonderful job caring for Bentley during his six day stay. He has been well-adjusted and calm since his return home. Will use Celea the next time I need a sitter.”
“Excellent care!! Gleidys took wonderful care of my doodle. She kept me updated on his day, sent pictures and made us feel comfortable he was doing great while we were away. Definitely recommend!”
“I'm going to start off by saying I have trust issues when it comes to leaving my dog with someone. I always worry about what could happen. So as a rule he is always by my side. Unfortunately an emergency came up and since I am new to the Cape Coral area I didn't know anyone that could take care of my boy, so I decided to go onto rover.com. There were so many people to choose from within 10 to 15 miles of where i live. That brings us to the second step of this process. I agonized with finding the best possible candidate that i could without breaking the piggy bank. I came across Amber & Matt and I loved the fact that she is a stay at home mom with 2 boys aged 10 & 13. I figured Milo would get plenty of attention. I submitted my request and Amber contacted me within 15 minutes. I asked if it would be possible to do a meet and greet before I committed to the stay. Without skipping a beat she said absolutely. I'm all about first impressions and warm fuzzy feelings so when we met and Milo almost instantly bonded with her 2 boys I knew this was going to be a great choice. I booked the stay and there was no looking back. I can't say enough of good things about Matt, Amber and their 2 boys. I do have to say i was slightly heart broken when i went to pick my boy up after the stay. I seriously don't think he wanted to leave. *****So long story short don't agonize over the decision like me, i did enough of it for everyone. Pull the trigger and YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED***** THEY ARE AWESOME !!!!!”

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 .
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.
