“Nuggie had a very good experience with Samantha - though we know she missed us, we could tell she was cared for and well loved. We will be booking a visit with Sam again!”
“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!”
“First time boarding our Teddy with Karen R. Karen kept me informed with many photos and stories of his days with her. I saw the love she had for him and he came home a very happy and well cared for boy. Will definitely choose Karen the next time we need a pup sitter. 💙🩵”
“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.”
“I would definitely recommend Jerald. We let me older Westin with him for 9 days. I received updates through out the week and my dog was content upon pick up. Will definitely use Jerald again.”
“We have a very soft-tempered three (3) year old female German Shepard who has never seen a boarding facility. We have used Rover on 2 other occasions with her, so needless to say, we are "picky and fussy" about who we entrust to care for our dog. We found Natasha and Gaspare on Rover and began a discussion. After a meet and greet, we knew that Timber would be well-cared for. Natasha's communication skills are above-par. She is prompt and very responsive. While we were away, she returned all text messages and sent us updates on Timber's day, with photos included. Natasha and Gaspare have very calm demeanors. They do not get easily excited and that calmness is a great character trait in a Rover sitter! When we picked Timber up, we were supposed to pick her up the morning of December 26th; however, we flew in to Ft. Myers on Christmas Day. We really wanted to get our baby back and while realizing it was Christmas, I thought I would ask if it was at all possible to retrieve Timber early, on Christmas Day evening. She replied immediately that this was no problem at all, and when we picked up the dog, she had Timber's belongings all packed up and ready to go. We went into their home, the dog looked at us, wagged her tail, and then proceeded to run up the stairs to the second level with one of their children. I wasn't expecting that response! That reaction alone told me that the care she had received was outstanding...the dog had had a BLAST!!! As if picking up a dog on Christmas Day wasn't a burden enough, Natasha sent us home with a care package...some treats for Timber, a Christmas ornament with her name and paw print inscribed, and a report card. It seems as though Timber had become what we used to refer to as "the Teacher's Pet"! If Natasha is available to take Timber in the future, I will not even bother to contact anyone else. She has my business secured. A+++. Dave Berry”
“I had an excellent experience with Alain from start to finish, he was an effective and reliable communicator; keeping me updated with messages, photos, and videos throughout my dog’s stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. They followed all my instructions carefully, and clearly have a genuine love for dogs. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with Alain again! Highly recommend!”
“Marcia was insanely wonderful to my boy the three days she cared for him. I have to admit, while he is still young, he came home better behaved after spending time with her. She was very tentative to him and me throughout our trip away and I think they loved each other equally! If I ever need a sitter again, I will definitely be using Marcia!”
“Gulcin is great with our puppy cora. We’ve booked her twice and both times Cora came home happy after her stay. Gulcin is very flexible with time and trustworthy. Highly recommend her for your boarding needs.”
“Thomas and Lyndsay took great care of my baby. This was the first time leaving Mika with a sitter, and we were afraid she wouldn't be ok, but she was very happy. We would definitely leave her again any time with them. Thanks for everything!!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Erika! She looked after our puppy for five days, showering her with love, keeping her schedule and constantly playing and entertaining her. She created the perfect home environment for her to feel comfortable. Erika kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos of our puppy. We’re definitely going to use her services again! We encourage everyone to hire her as a pet sitter, she is wonderful.”
“Carla is awesome with Sky and keeps us updated on how things are going!! Sky was in great hands to help her through her anxiety of fireworks and thunderstorms while my husband and I were out of town giving us peace of mind. Thank you Carla, we appreciate you!”
“Cynthia and her family are amazing! Cynthia was in contact with me daily for updates and pictures. She made sure my dog was well taken care of and felt right at home. I highly recommend Cynthia for any and all future visits. She and her family will take care of your dog like they are their own and make you feel more than comfortable about leaving your pup for a few days!”
“Diana provided very good care of our Aussiedoodle for 13 days. Videos of walks were sent to us while we were out of town, along with Diana's updates. As we were driving to pick up our doggie, we could see him in the driveway (on a leash of course) wagging his tail. He was so happy playing with Diana's teenage son. We are very pleased with Diana's service, and we will definitely use her boarding service when needed in the future.”
“VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER! Our Dog Nova (a lab mix) stayed with Emily and Aaron for a little over a week and they treated her like family. They made sure she had plenty of play time, company and got her medicine. They were very easy to communicate with, quick to respond and sent regular updates. Honestly I hope they are always available when I go out of town. :) Thanks you guys!”
“I left my puppy with Celea for 4 days. I absolutely loved the setup Celea has for the dogs for sleeping/lounging and her fenced yard. Celea sent me multiple photos and videos each day and notified me when my puppy got sick so that I could schedule a vet appointment. I could tell that Celea loved my dog so much and I felt so comfortable leaving him in her care!”
“My dog means everything to me, and leaving her is very difficult. I went to see Krista and she seemed to be right person to watch Maggie. I was wrong, she was an outstanding person. Maggie is a dog that needs people and returns that affection with her love. Thanks Krista for taking such great care of her. I will not hesitate to use you in the future. Yours truly Don, Kelley, and of coarse Maggie May.”
“Claudia is amazing! She always sends pictures and updates. This is the second time Thor has stayed with her and her family, and we couldn’t be more happy and comforted to leave him with them. Thor is very picky when it comes to eating and she was very accommodating with this, we highly recommend! 😊”

Tara did such a great job taking care of my dog, Brixie! She was very caring and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I felt comfortable knowing Brixie was in good hands. I would definitely trust Tara to watch her again and highly recommend her! ❤️🐾
Natasha was absolutely amazing! I went to do a meet and greet with someone else before I met with her and I was in tears and could not leave my baby with them. This left me wary when I met Natasha, but she quickly put me at ease and Mickey fit right in at her home! Natasha sent me updates daily and I knew my dog was safe and having a blast with her and her family! Thank you, Natasha and Gaspare.
This was our first booking with Karen, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She took exceptional care of our senior dog, making sure all of his needs and medications were handled with great attention. Karen sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciated her kindness and communication. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
We had an awesome experience! They were incredibly friendly, kind, and easy to work with from start to finish. Communication was great, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in their care. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and go above and beyond to make both pets and owners feel at ease. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Sport has stayed with Brianne and her family many times and absolutely love him and treat him as their own. I’m very picky with Sport being he’s like a human to me ;) And it makes life easier when he returns home to us. Brianne is so accommodating with my requests for him. She’s the best!

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.
99% of sitters in Cape Coral 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 Cape Coral 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 Cape Coral.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cape Coral 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.
