“Cooper had such a great time and made new doggy friends! Thanks for taking good care of him. We loved getting photos, videos, and updates the week Cooper was there. I definitely recommend Kim, and will book again in the future.”
“We left two elderly dogs with Taylor for the weekend. It’s a little bit of a drive BUT the care was exceptional, I even received a report card for each dog that was cute and a nice touch. I think one dog wanted to stay lol. I would use her again.”
“Absolutely a pleasure! We couldn’t have asked for a more caring sitter for our pup. ❤️ We feel so grateful and lucky to have you nearby to take care of Shoko while we’re out of town. A million thanks!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats. I want to help you with whatever you need, and make things easier and comfortable. I am able to follow specific instructions, and do whatever is needed to welcome the pet into my home or at make them comfortable at yours. I am currently looking for work opportunities, so I am home often/most of the day, so I will be able to play and hang with your animals for a bit, or be with them often if they are at mine. I take care of my animals everyday so it is not a big deal to add an extra. I have a fenced in back yard to let the dogs run free and three dogs and a cat at home. They will have at least one play partner to hang with them (the other two are a bit more reserved, but are good with others) or if you would like them separated, that is also okay. I am also able to walk the dogs if they need more exercise than just running around. I am willing to come to you if that is preferred and let your pets out or walk them. I do have a spare cage that can be used for your pet if you forget yours.
About: Ive been taking care of animals since I was 9. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs, so I completely understand how to take care of them and make them feel loved :) Animals are my passion, and my top priority is making sure your pets feel completely comfortable, safe, and happy while you are away. I tailor my care to your pet's specific routine, energy levels, and needs, treating every animal I sit for like my own When I’m not hanging out with your pets, I work as a licensed Realtor here in Gainesville. Because of my professional background, I am fully background-checked, fingerprinted, and trusted with clients' homes and properties daily.You can rest easy knowing that while you are away, your home will be treated with the utmost respect, kept secure, and left completely spotless. I know how to manage security systems, smart locks, and household emergencies, giving you total peace of mind! I care for pets by going on walks and playing with them. I can clean litter boxes and clean up any messes that the pets make! As someone who has had many cats and dogs in their lifetime, I understand how to care for them and keep them happy!
“Celeste was amazing! My girl, Ella, is recovering from surgery & Celeste made her feel right at home! She was very detailed, communicated well with how Ella was doing, and was super helpful and caring when Ella wasn’t feeling well one night. I’m so appreciative of her!”
“Alexys and Kevin were great with my dog. He came home happy and clearly cared for. Folks should know that the boarding dogs are kept in a separate building from the main house but are accompanied all day and watched by camera at night. That worked fine for my dog who can be ambivalent about being near people at all times. We’re planning to board with Alexys again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chiefland
I had a wonderful experience with her watching my dog over the weekend! She took such great care of my fur baby and made sure my dog was well loved, comfortable, and cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands while I was away. She was attentive, dependable, and treated my dog like her own. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. I will definitely use her again! ❤️🐾

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Chiefland is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $57 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 172 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Chiefland. 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.
96% of sitters in Chiefland 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 Chiefland 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 Chiefland.
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 Chiefland 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.
