“Heather is the best. She takes such loving care of my little dog and has helped with his interaction with other dogs including small outings. I just appreciate her so much.”
“Our two beagles Larry and Betty really enjoyed their stay with Christine and all her fur babies. Christine updates us with photos and messages daily. Our dogs were definitely living their best doggie daycare life in Christine’s care. We would highly recommend her!”
“kayla and her husband have provided me such peace of mind. I have not been in Florida long so I have not boarded Brooklyn my dog in Florida. They’ve sent me pictures. They’ve been overall just amazing. Definitely booking again. Awesome amazing people.”
“Jennifer was very good at communicating and kept me very assured while traveling! Updated me daily with pictures and videos! Nala loved the stay and I would trust Jennifer with my dog boarding needs going forward! I could tell she really cares about the animals she brings in and took care of mine like her own! Thanks Jennifer!”
“Marquita was a wonderful sitter! She kept me updated on my pup and took really good care of him. So grateful for the safe and loving environment she provided my boy while we were out of town❤️”
“My family and I couldn’t be happier with the care Jonathan provided for Bolt. We truly appreciated the regular updates, messages, and pictures! it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Bolt was not only well taken care of but also having a great time (he even found his “twin brother” there, which made it even more special!). We’re so grateful for the love and attention Jonathan gave him, and we would absolutely trust him again in the future.”
“I really appreciate Kristen being available during the holiday season. My pet fit right in with her family pets. Kristen is very friendly and her home is cozy. I hope she is available for my next booking!”
“Debbie is wonderful.Peyton loved the attention she received and I felt very grateful to have someone so kind to watch over my girl. She sent me photos daily keeping me updated.”
“Kennedi did such a great job with Klaus and he seemed to love his time over there! Thank you for watching him and caring for him as your own and thank you for all the amazing updates and pictures that you constantly shared! I will definitely be sending Klaus to hang out with you again in the future! ◡̈”
“Jason did a fantastic job with our pup Nugget. He gave us daily updates, and I had peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. I would highly recommend Jason, you can tell he is a real pet lover! We will def be bringing nugget back the next time we are away!”
“Lee was great! He helped us out on short notice and was super flexible and accommodating. He took great care of our doggie while we were away! We recently moved to a new area and Lee is our new go-to dog sitter! Highly recommend”
“Alli gave Nellie great care over this past Thanksgiving weekend. She sent many pictures and Nellie had lots of playtime with her dog Mac. Will definitely use Alli again.”
“We were happy with our dog’s stay with Jessica. She sent pictures and videos throughout the stay. Jessica has a large, fenced in yard for the dogs to run and play. We appreciated that we could do a meet and greet before the stay- we had requested this with other sitters and were either ignored or stood up.”
“Jennifer has a happy household for dogs and people. My Kodiak came home from his six-day stay exhausted and happy from playing with Jennifer’s three dogs and her daughter. Any dog would be happy staying at Jennifer’s.”
“Norma was amazing with my two French Bulldogs. They had the time of their lives! They’re already missing all the fun they had while staying with her. She kept me updated with pictures so I could see all the fun they were having. I’m someone who usually worries constantly about my 2 pups, but was very comfortable with Norma since she has so much experience with dogs plus always kept me up to date. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries and they got their own little vacation! 😊”
“This was our first time boarding our fur baby with anyone, and it went SO well! Yessica and Kevin are naturals with dogs and they really knew how to get our girl acclimated to her surroundings with a patient introduction to toys, to them as caregivers, and then to each of the other fur babies who were in their care. Our clingy girl did great and we felt relaxed in knowing that she was comfortable. She has never-ending energy and was able to play her heart out! I will say she slept hard when we brought her home and even enjoyed a lazy day the day after coming home, lol! Highly recommend!”
“It was our first time using Rover and a friend recommended Vasti. Our puppy, Haven, was boarded for 5 days and had a wonderful time. Vasti and Bryan took great care of her and sent updates with pictures and videos frequently. We are so grateful for finding you and knowing Haven is well cared for when we are away. We look forward to boarding with you again in the future!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Joan and Jerry took wonderful care of Spike while I was away. He can be a little particular—he's an older dog with dietary restrictions, doesn't care much for other animals, and takes some time to warm up to new people—but they were incredibly patient, attentive, and understanding of his needs. They kept me updated, followed all of his instructions, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. It's never easy leaving your pet behind, especially one with a few quirks, but I felt completely comfortable with Spike in their care. I would absolutely recommend Joan and Jerry to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate pet sitters and would gladly book with them again. Thank you both for taking such great care of my boy! ❤️🐾”
“Richi and Athena were amazing! They kept us informed and sent plenty of pictures. We had a delay and they kindly helped us out with that. We are recommending them to all of our friends.”

Kennedi took great care of my Teacup Yorki with at least two walks a day and she even gave him a bath. He was very comfortable with her and had no problems, and she sent me photos and/or a video every day. There was no problem communicating with her and she responded quickly to my texts. I'd be happy to recommend her to anyone, especially to those with small or midsized dogs.
Nancy was amazing with my nervous rescue fur baby. She helped her feel comfortable and really well cared for, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She sent photos and stayed in touch, so I always felt confident my dog was in great hands. I’d definitely have Nancy watch her again—highly recommend!
Kristen was most accommodating to my last minute requirement for a pup sitter. She was very communicative and sent me pics of my pup throughout her 2 day stay. I got delayed due to construction and rain so I ran late getting back. Kristen was most understanding as I kept in contact to keep her apprised of my ETA. My pup wad happy to see me and looked very well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend Kristen if you need a dog sitter as she is amazing. Thank you again, Kristen!
Jason took such great care of our Poppy. He is attentive to detail and a great communicator. He sent updates and pics of our girl. He also let us do a meet n greet beforehand. He and his wife are true dog lovers and it was so reassuring knowing our girl was happy while we were away. I’m so happy to have found Jason!
My two Corgis just spent a wonderful week in Norma's care. She is the best! The dogs had lots of attention and a chance to run outdoors. And I received lots of lovely photos with them having a good time, including some action shots of running full speed! I will definitely book them with Norma the next time I travel
We have always been so pleased with Yessica and her wonderful care of our Callie, so we had no qualms about booking her for a two-week stay. As always, Yessica provided us with daily reports and photos and responded quickly when I reached out to her. The icing on the cake today was that Yessica gave Callie a bath before I picked her up! She was squeaky clean and adorned with a festive bandana. So happy to have such a pleasant, reliable, and loving sitter for our little girl.
Delta had an amazing time! It was our first time leaving him with someone other than a family member and we felt that he was in great hands! We received updates while we were gone and even a couple photos. Delta had so much fun with the other dogs! Great sitters!
Our Molly is a rescue and this was our first time leaving her so we were a bit nervous. After our meet and greet we decided to give Stephen a chance. We were not disappointed. Molly was not only watched but treated like a part of the family. We also received regular pictures and updates showing Molly relaxing and having fun. We are so grateful for the care she was given and plan to have Stephen as our regular sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clearwater on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,817 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clearwater. 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.
94% of Clearwater 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 Clearwater 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 Clearwater 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 Clearwater.
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 Clearwater 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.
