“Daniel has watched our dog several times now and has been terrific with her. I can tell when we drop her off that Izzy is always happy to see Daniel and does not shy away from him, as though she were afraid or uncomfortable in any way, which are signs that I watch for when boarding my dog. Daniel has always been helpful, has always responded quickly when texting him and even though we could probably find someone closer to us, we prefer to have Daniel watch Izzy.”
“I’m can’t say enough about how pleased we are with the care David provided for our girls. David provided continuous communication on how Daisy and Phoebe were doing, their eating habits, behavior, etc. and sent several pictures of our girls so we could see how they were. If you’re looking for someone to care for your furry family members, he’s a wonderful choice.”
“Damaris, was great! She has excellent communication skills with us as clients. Sent pictures and updates! 5stars for her. Michael our dog was well taken care of and was so happy. Thank you Damaris, We will definitely recommend and use you guys in the future!!”
“Labern was so amazing! She took such great care of my doggie. I never once had to ask how Venus was doing, she sent me an update and photo every single day! I loved that so much! I hope she's available to watch her again because Labern has become my favorite Rover in all of Florida. Thank you so so much!”
“Marie was such a sweetheart. She has a big heart for dogs and took very good care of mine. My baby had plenty of room to run in the backyard and she sent lots of pictures. Will use her again.”
“Vlasta was great. We set up a meet and greet. Vlasta knew how to approach our dog. She knew how to hold him and the day went off without a hitch. Excellent!!! We will use her again.”
“I can not say enough about how good they take care of my girl. I would highly recommend Mary. If they are not available to take care of my pup I just don’t make plans. Thanks guys for taking good care of her”
“This is our first overnight experience and once again Sary was an exceptional choice. Our fur babies stayed with her for 3 nights and were the happiest babies during their stay. She sent pictures and text daily to keep us updated on them. She is wonderful with them.”
About: I have about 2 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have provided dog-sitting and currently cat-sit, as well as offer drop-in visits to feed pets, let dogs out, provide companionship, and follow any specific instructions from their owners. I genuinely love animals and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I currently care for a cat who has been staying with me, and Monday through Friday I care for two of my neighbors’ dogs by letting them out, feeding and watering them, and spending time playing with them. I enjoy caring for animals and making sure they receive the attention and care they need. In my home, I care for our dogs and cats by feeding and watering them, grooming and bathing them, playing with them, and working on basic training. I make sure they are comfortable, cared for, and get plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I would follow their specific instructions and routines to make sure their pets receive the same level of care and attention they are used to.
“Stephanie was wonderful! Sammy and Andi loved her! She regularly text and sent pictures showing they were very comfortable and loved! Will definitely use again and recommend to others! Very grateful for her service!”
“My first time using Rover and WAS LUCKY to have found and chosen Sandy! She is over the top amazing. She watched my dog during the holidays and last minute at that! I will not settle for any less than Sandy from now on. She is my sitter! Love love love!!!!!!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. Friends jokingly call me the dog whisperer because dogs naturally trust me and feel calm in my care. I work from home full-time, so your dog will have constant attention, regular trail walks, and a structured, clean apartment environment. Since I’ve used Rover as a customer myself, I know how important peace of mind is. I'll def keep you updated with daily photos! I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Your dog will rarely be alone and always feel safe, loved, and happy. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every dog. As a pet parent to a 7lb emotional support dog, I understand trust and care, keeping owners updated with photos, videos, and regular communication
“Súper in communication, took very good care of my babies, sent pictures and helped me feel comfortable leaving my furbabies while taking my first vacation away from them. I will definitely be having her care for them in the future.”
“My puppy had a wonderful time spending the day with Marion! The house was perfectly set up for dog sitting and very safe! I received lots of pictures during the day to make me feel at ease and I know my puppy was taken care of with lots of love and warmth. We were very happy and comfortable leaving our dog here!”
About: I love taking out pets out to the park to have fun and play, and as long as the owner permits it, I’ll bring my own dog along so they can play together. Additionally, I make sure the dog does their needs at least 3 times a day. One time in the morning after they eat breakfast, one in the middle of the day after they eat lunch, and one time in the night before they go to sleep. I work full time and I have 2 days off. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available all day from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. I am sometimes available on Fridays, so you’d have to advise me 3 days before to see if I can accept your booking. I leave them unleashed in the home and I don’t put them in cages because I believe they should roam free in the house. I play with them for a long time and at night I do it so they can get tired and sleep soundly. I wash their bowls after they eat and make sure their water is clean. I don’t cook for them for safety reasons, so you would have to bring their own food.
About: Highly experienced pet sitter with 7+ years of experience providing loving care for animals of all shapes and sizes. I offer dog walking for active pups and drop-in visits for cats, plus house sitting for pets who thrive at home. I am currently not working I’m a stay at home mom . I would be able to watch your fur babies Monday - Sunday anytime I don’t have a fenced in yard but would be able to take your pets out every 1-2 hrs to use the restroom and play outside

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Avon Park is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $49 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 188 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Avon Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% of sitters in Avon Park 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 Avon Park home-away-from-home, 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 Avon Park.
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.
You and your Avon Park 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 , 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 .
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.
