“Christina is amazing! We left our babies for a week with her and I just can say they had a great time at Christina’s home. She sent us updates and pictures and was very responsive and compassionate. My small dog was injured and she took great care of her and helped her to heal faster. My other puppy was scared of dogs and she helped him to be more confident. Also, all of her dogs are so sweet so it was great exposure for my puppy. Now, he seems to be more happy and confident around dogs. Definitely the best experience I ever had with a sitter. Thanks, Christina! ♥️”
“It was apparent Heather and her children took great care of my furbaby. I appreciate the communication during his stay. During the meet and greet, I knew Zeus would have a great stay! I will definitely book her again!”
“Norma was wonderful with my little pup, Paco. She kept me informed throughout the day and I could tell he felt right at home and was having fun. I would highly recommend her and plan to have her take care of my dog again in the future.”
“Taylor was FANTASTIC. We had never left our dog with anyone besides family before so this was a big leap of faith. Our dog is super anxious and Taylor worked to make her comfortable. She was incredibly responsive and sent lots of updates. Definitely spoiled our girl.”
“Leslie does an awesome job with Benny. She’s calm and attentive to him. Her dog Willa gives him attention too. She’s super flexible with a few last minute changes I had on this trip. So very much appreciated.”
“Alli was amazing with Oatmeal! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated the whole time. Oatmeal looked so happy, especially playing with her sweet dog Mack. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“I felt very secure with Linda taking care of my dog over the weekend. My dog immediately took to her and was happy and affectionate towards her when he returned also. I know he got a lot of snuggle time which he needed.”
“Second time using Vasti and will certainly not be our last. The updates we got were perfect. Both of our dogs came home tired and relaxed. When we pulled up to Vasti house one of my dogs jumped out with excitement. This shows you the time and care Vasti provides with her services. Will be booking Vasti again in the near future. Thank you!”
“Alicia completely spoiled our puppy, Macaroni, in a great way! He had lots of long walks, treats, and play time with her dog Wilson. He was tired out for the next few days! We loved getting all the photos and updates while we were away. I highly recommend Alicia and I'm sure Macaroni will be excited to go back in the future.”
“I couldn't sing higher praises of Rachel! Rachel's about me is exactly who Rachel is. A respectful, humble, and down to earth person with a deep reverence for animals and their pet parents. I had to go out of town on a family emergency, and Rachel generously accommodated me into her schedule. This is the first time that I have ever left my fur child outside of family Care, so I was naturally nervous. At the meet and greet I was instantly put at ease and the environment she creates for the pets she watches is exactly the way that I would keep my house. I felt put at ease talking to Rachel and had full confidence leaving my dog with her. Rachel's neighbors even had high praises of Rachel of how kind she is, and how much she loves animals! She took great care of my fur child, and even spoiled her more than I do! Daily walks, play time, letting my dog pick her favorite spot to take her daily naps, giving her allergy medicine and a lot of love! She went absolutely above and beyond my expectations. My dog got in the car and decided Thank you so much Rachel, not only for loving my fur baby as much as I do, but also for taking a part of the stress of this trip away! You are my definite go to for watching my dog, and my dog has her new favorite friend!”
“Ghost had such a wonderful time visiting with his new friends! They were very accommodating and welcomed us with a last-minute visit! Highly recommend this wonderful couple and would definitely use them again❤️”
“I couldn’t have asked for a nicer home for my most cherished possession. So accommodating when my plans made a sudden change. I would recommend and frequent Daniel on any of my out of town trips. 10 out of 10!”
“Emma was awesome and was totally flexible with scheduling. She shocked us by offering to pick up our Westie at the Clearwater Beach resort so that we could just enjoy a much needed mini vaca. Daisy took to her immediately and was tail wagging from the start! Very happy!!”
“Jean & Jerry were great with Joey & Rudy. You can tell that they truely love to host their furry, four-legged guests! Thank you so much for making Joey & Rudy comfortable in your home - we will definately contact them for future boarding.”
“I left my senior dog with Rick and his family while I went out of town for a week, and I can't thank them enough for taking such good care of her! Rick regularly checked in and sent pictures, and I had piece of mind knowing my girl got plenty of attention while I was away. She had the best time!”
“My dogs had a great time with Jaime. They were well taken care of and given lots of love. Jaime was very responsive and when we had a last minute issue and was so gracious to keep the dogs a little while longer than expected.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clearwater Beach
Yessica is the best pet sitter around! From start to finish the experience could not have been better. She was proactive with communication and flexible with booking & drop-off/pickup. Her home is a dog's paradise and I received tons of updates of my dog looking like he was having the time of his life!
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.

As of November 2026, there are 2,746 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clearwater Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Clearwater Beach 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 Clearwater Beach 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 Beach.
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 Clearwater Beach. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Clearwater Beach 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.
