About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for all kinds of pets! I currently have a German Shepherd, a senior cat, and a 6-month-old ferret, so I’m familiar with caring for animals of different ages, sizes, and needs. I’ve been watching dogs for friends, family, and neighbors since I was little, and I’ve cared for all kinds of breeds and personalities, big and small. I’m definitely the person who stops to pet every animal I see! I love making animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ If your pet is extra needy and loves being the center of attention, no worries! When your pet boards at my house, my own animals will stay at their own house and won’t be at the boarding house, so your fur baby can enjoy all the love, cuddles, and attention to themselves! Pet care fits easily into my routine because my job offers a flexible schedule! As long as I have about a week’s notice, I can arrange my work schedule around your pet’s needs. I’m happy to provide care throughout the day and night, whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, regular meals, playtime, medication reminders, or just extra company and cuddles. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my priority, and I’ll make sure they get the time, attention, and care they deserve! 🐾❤️ I care for my animals like they’re my own babies, and I’ll treat your pets the exact same way! ❤️ I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time, and my ferret is very friendly and loves other animals. I’m comfortable administering medications, giving baths, crate training or crating when needed, feeding, cleaning up after pets, and pretty much anything else your fur babies might need. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines, and personalities, and I’m happy to accommodate them. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime, extra cuddles, patience, or a little extra care, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home! 🐾

“Brownie’s stay with Eyran was amazing! Eyran was a Godsend for us being away from home for a week. He scheduled a meet and greet, which was so helpful for everybody to be comfortable. I knew from the first time meeting Eyran that this was going to be a great experience. He was very communicative while we were gone sending pictures and videos. Thank you so much, Eyran! We will be booking with you anytime we have a need for Brownie!”

“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.”

“Luz was awesome. She sent no less than three pictures of our dog every day while we were on vacation. Our dog requires medication three times daily and putting our trust in Luz to administer those doses worked out real well. Next time we need a dog sitter, you better believe we’ll reach out to her again.”

Holli took such very good care of our dogs the past few days. Her home and family were a great fit for our guys. You not only get Holli, but her whole family to love on your pets.

Riley watched our dog Asher for the weekend and we had a great experience. She was very quick to respond to messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Asher was well cared for and happy when we picked him up, and it was clear he was in good hands the whole time. We would definitely trust Riley to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Bartow

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Bartow is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $50 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 1,394 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Bartow. About 92% of Bartow sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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.
