“Angela was super sweet and I loved the photos of my cat while we were gone! My cat hasn’t ever stayed with a stranger for that long without us and he was a little mischievous with some hiding spots but Angela handled it very well by giving him his time to come around to her. Highly recommend!! :)”
“Samantha was wonderful with Bailey! She sent great pictures everyday which made me very happy. Bailey spent time with her kids and seemed to be well adjusted and extremely well cared for. I would highly recommend and will definitely book here again.”

“Michele was an excellent dog sitter. She gave lots of attention and love to my very scared dog Luna. Everyday she updated us with a text and photos. You definitely can tell Michele loves pets !”
“Krista was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the start, she was incredibly sweet and kept us completely at ease with frequent photo updates and check-ins whenever it was time for meals or walks. Her home is spotless, and the fenced-in yard provided the perfect environment for play and exercise. It was clear they were a perfect match—Krista had nothing but great things to say about Kali, which made us feel so comfortable leaving her in her care. To top it off, she was incredibly accommodating when our travel plans changed last minute; she didn't hesitate to let our dog stay an extra night when we realized we wouldn't make the original pickup time. We will definitely be booking with Krista again!”
“Lucy loves spending time at Kimber’s! Always other well behaved dogs there to play, lots of personal attention, a happy and comfortable place. Kimber always sends video updates, she has great communication, we have great confidence having her watch Lucy. Highly recommended.”
“Linda did a wonderful job of taking care of our pup, as always. Autumn was so excited to see Linda again when we dropped her off which tells you how loved our dog feels in her care. We will book with Linda again for sure!”
“They sent so many videos and photos, which helped a lot considering how much I missed my sweet puppy, Virginia. Their dog, Max, quickly became Virginia’s best bud, and their entire family was so welcoming. Virginia was immediately comfortable and so loved the entire time. The home was clean and the backyard was spacious and fenced in. She had tons of play time and more than enough attention. This is where I’d board my dog if I had to again.”
“Jennifer was a great choice for a staycation for my dog. She was super responsive and I could see how much she loves what she does. My mind was put at ease by using Jennifer and I will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go away! Thank you Jennifer!”
“Where do I begin? Natalie has been so wonderful, in the past and for this most recent stay (8 nights). We received photos, a video montage/slide show, and the most adorable full sheet of little stories about what Poppi did, didn’t do, and other fun things. Natalie was very flexible, both our departure and return times changed, and she was very agreeable to the changes- and happily accommodated said changes. Natalie’s daughter totally embraced Poppi’s loving nature (I.e. lots of licky kisses!) which was above and beyond. I hate to provide such a glowing review because I’d selfishly like to keep her all to myself, but that wouldn’t be fair! All dogs deserve to be loved and cared for as my Poppi has been. Thank you Natalie (and family)!”
“Elaine was great! Her place and clean and comfy perfect for the pups! She sent great photos and updates daily. Our pups loved playing with her daughter as well! Would definitely book again!”
“Lauren was a wonderful sitter for my dog. He needs a lot of attention and she was capable of taking care of that. My dog loves kids and kids love to play and they were a perfect match. More importantly than anything else she took my last minute reservation even though she normally doesn't after Rover canceled my previous reservation with another sitter without telling us. She took our puppy in and took amazing care of him. There is not enough good things I could say that would do her justice. We will be using her in the future to watch our dog anytime we need it and she is available.”
“Mike kept us updated, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s not easy to leave your pet with someone, but he made the whole experience stress-free. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and that says everything. Highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. We will definitely be using him again!”
“Vetra was amazing with my girls and I highly recommend her! I have already rebooked for a second stay. Vetra kept my girls on their routine and sent me pictures and messages to let me know they were doing well. I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing that they were being well loved and cared for while I was gone.”
“Jerry and Sharon took such good care of my 15 year old Yorkie/poo. Jerry sent pictures and updates daily. I booked a second stay and Teddy was eager to get into their house. That tells me that he was happy there. I also appreciate that Jerry only has one or two dogs at a time. I highly recommend him.”
“Destony watched our boy Ace twice now! She is so skilled and highly knowledgeable! She was able to watch Ace the second time within a minutes notice while I had to go deliver my baby early due to severe preeclampsia. She not only took care of him on short notice, but also took extra time to bathe him and clip his nails, exercise him and everything. He came back a happy handsome boy! She sent photos and communicated everyday! Really couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for our Ace!”
“Tony was wonderful with our dog, Louie. He kept in regular communication throughout Louie’s stay, which gave us peace of mind. We felt comfortable and confident leaving our dog in Tony’s care and would use him again.”
About: Hi - my name is VJ (though my legal/account name is Virgil). Over the past 20 years, I have always had dogs and cherished their company. I started with a chocolate lab and one year later added a rescued Shih Tzu. They were together for 12 years and were amazing together. Sadly, when my lab passed, my Shih Tzu struggled so I rescued a King Charles from a horrible back yard breeder program. They were together for 6 years until my Shih Tzu passed. Just recently, I lost my King Charles and for the first time in a long time my home is without any dogs. I’m heartbroken - but I’m not ready to get another dog just yet. I’d like to fill that void by helping others with their dogs when they travel. I know from experience how hard it is to find a trustworthy sitter when you travel. With my 3 dogs, I’ve experienced every level associated with various dog ages - from young and energetic to older and failing health (sadly). Personally, I’m basically semi-retired. When I do work, I work from home managing my various investments. So I’m always home and here for them at anytime. With my dogs, I always would go for exploratory hikes/walks through various preserves near me in both the AM and PM - to get their exercise and “sniffs”. If your dog enjoys that, I would do the same! I live in a gated community on a quiet street. I do have a pool - but have protective mesh fence if it needs to be installed. I prefer to allow the dogs full reign of the house - but if you prefer them to be crated that is fine as well. Basically, I’ve been through it all with my 3 dogs and feel extremely confident that your dog would have an amazing experience here while you travel. I also have a close relationship with a vet near me (or can use your vet if they are also nearby). I’m basically semi-retired, so I’m home full-time to take care of your dog(s). If they’re capable, I do enjoy taking them for walks/hikes through various preserves near my home in both the AM and PM. And being here basically all of the time, I’m used to always letting them out front for a potty break every few hours. In the evenings, they’re more than welcome to cuddle on the sofa or in their bed as we watch TV together. I’ll treat them like my own - and they’ll Be in amazing hands. I prefer to allow them full access to the house - but obviously any conditions you would want regarding their care would be recognized.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Boca Grande 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 Boca Grande 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 Boca Grande.
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 Boca Grande. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Boca Grande 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.
