“Carl and Linda did a wonderful job caring for Kali! As soon as we met, I knew it would be a good fit. It’s so nice to have that peace of mind when I’m traveling. They sent me photo updates regularly which I really appreciated. Kali clearly fell in love with them. I will definitely rebooking!”
“It is obvious in everything Bruce does that he takes his responsibility seriously. Receiving texts of my dogs playing and enjoying life several times a day while we were away gave me great peace of mind. Finding a reliable pet sitter can be challenging. And Bruce exceeded any expectation I had. He loved and cared for my dogs like they were his own. I could not ask for more. Thanks Bruce!”

“I last minute needed an overnight sitter for my dog Paco while passing through Orlando. Sarahi and Leandro communicated quickly with me, have reasonable rates, were kind, sent lots of pictures and a video of Paco, have a nice fenced in backyard, and gifted us a thank you note for letting them watch my kiddo. I was able to enjoy my time in Orlando without being worried about my dog, I knew he was being well taken care of. I would definitely use their services again.”
“Our dog Ribeye stayed with Emiliano and Valeria for the first time and he had the best time! It truly felt like a home away from home. We loved getting daily updates and seeing how relaxed and happy he was. It’s such a relief to travel knowing your dog is in great hands. Highly recommend!!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my 16 week old puppy E.Z. with John. He has a closed in backyard and no other pets. He took very good care of E.Z. and I will use him again.”
“Ingrid was amazing with our dog, Morty! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and made sure he was comfortable and happy the whole time. She was very attentive to his needs even giving him his ear meds which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Morty had a wonderful time with her, and we’ll definitely be booking with Ingrid again!”
“I left my senior Boston Terrier, Crixus, with Al and Stephanie for a week while I was on vacation, and I couldn't be more pleased. I was initially very nervous, but they were absolutely wonderful with him. They kept me updated with regular pictures and even sent a video of him snoring, which made me smile and feel at ease. Crixus came back home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Al and Stephanie and will definitely leave my baby with them again in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the moment we dropped our dogs off, we knew they were in great hands. I was very nervous leaving my boys with anyone but me but we received updates & photos, and could tell they were well cared for and loved while we were away. The boys almost didn’t want to leave lol. We are extremely happy with the care they received and will absolutely be booking with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! 🐾❤️”
“I can't recommend Christine enough! She is awesome and has made me feel very comfortable with how my GSD is treated and cared for during her stays. I am very busy because of my career, and Christine has always been very prompt with her responses and accommodating with my schedule. I will continue to book with her in the future!”
“Omar was absolutely amazing with my dog! Super attentive, reliable, and you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. My pup who is a timid felt so comfortable around him, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. And I have to say on top of being a fantastic dog sitter, Omar is also very handsome, which definitely doesn’t hurt! Highly recommend him to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring pet care”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Christmas on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,338 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Christmas. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Christmas sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Christmas landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Christmas 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 Christmas.
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 Christmas 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.
