“This was my first time having Thomas and Lyndsay watch my baby Dunkin and had a great experience. I travel for work so finding/having a consistent dog walking/boarding person is incredibly difficult sometimes, but Thomas and Lyndsay were so nice and they even allowed my dog on the couch and bed since he is already allowed on furniture in my home. 🥰 I would 100% reach out to Thomas and Lyndsay again. Thank you so much! ☺️”
“First time hiring a sitter, Summit was amazing and truly made my first experience using the Rover app so easy. I would highly recommend him. I believe he went above and beyond by offering a meet and greet. His professionalism and knowledge of animals made the experience even better than I imagined. Jolene absolutely loved being there! Definitely will be booking with him again.”
“Tia was amazing. She took great care of our fur babies. We are travel nurses and we take our dogs everywhere. Unfortunately, they were unable to come with us this time. Tia was able to manage and give lots of love to our Pomeranian that has very bad separation anxiety. Tia sent us updates, pictures and videos everyday. We are so happy with her. If we are ever back in Omaha I will totally and with all the trust in the world leave my fur babies with her again. We 100% recommend her and I’ll be sure to recommend her to all our travel nurse friends.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! He did an exceptional job attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. What really gave me peace of mind was that he always sent photos and videos, keeping me updated every step of the way. My dog was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and professional to care for their pet.”
“Destony watched our boy Ace twice now! She is so skilled and highly knowledgeable! She was able to watch Ace the second time within a minutes notice while I had to go deliver my baby early due to severe preeclampsia. She not only took care of him on short notice, but also took extra time to bathe him and clip his nails, exercise him and everything. He came back a happy handsome boy! She sent photos and communicated everyday! Really couldn’t ask for a better caretaker for our Ace!”
“Vetra was so good with my dog. She stayed over July 4 and there are a bunch of fireworks which my dog hates and Vetra did her best to comfort Lily. We’ll definitely be using Vetra again.”
“We left our buddy with her and it was his first time ever being away from mom n dad and we were so blessed to find Gulcin she is wonderful with him and would recommend her to any pet parent we got pictures and videos and updates that helped us with the separation”
“Karen is actually 6 STARS ⭐️ Rocky felt right at home - we received pictures & videos throughout his stay Rocky loved cuddling up to Karen - had plenty of walks and play time . We really appreciated the love & care Rocky got ! Already working on his next stay ❣️”
“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!”
“Fabiana is amazing. She accommodated me last minute, has a lovely, tidy home, and sent me updates throughout the day. Lucy was very happy here, will be booking with her again.”
“Jerry did a great job with our Bailey girl. She’s just a pup that isn’t quite housebroken. She has alot of energy and him and his wife welcomed her into their home. They are very kind and sent messages and pics. She seemed happy when we picked her up,”
“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.”
“For my active pup and as a nervous Mama Pablo and his dog oasis was an incredible experience. It’s a dog house and Dave had a blast!! Pablo knows everything about dogs and Dave was well fed, exercised and came home healthy and happy. No separation anxiety and though he’s pooped, I know he had so much fun!”
“My dog is a Sr and takes meds and Karen was attentive to her pill schedule. I had written detailed instructions for my pups daily schedule and Karen understood because she had a dog a long time ago that took similar meds . She sent pix and texts. My dog was happy in Karen home when I returned . Big thanks !”
About: As an animal lover since childhood, I’ve had the joy of caring for both dogs and cats throughout my life, including my own two cats and a dog. My pet care experience includes feeding, walking, grooming, and basic training. I’m a patient and active caregiver who believes that every animal deserves love, kindness, and quality care. My passion for animals ensures that I'll provide the best possible care for your pets while you're away.//Si puedo hablar español! In addition to my full-time job from 9AM-5:30PM, I make sure to spend quality time with my own pets every day. For pet care services, I’m available on weekdays from 6AM-9PM, as well as all day on Saturdays and Sundays. This allows me to provide dedicated care to your furry companions, while still ensuring that my own pets are well taken care of. Just send me a message and I can let you know! When caring for pets in the client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walking, and grooming schedules. I always treat the home with respect and keep it tidy and secure as I do for my own. I believe that communication is key, so I provide the owners with regular updates and photos of their beloved pets while they’re away. This gives them peace of mind and reassurance that their pets are in good hands.
“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!”

A++++. Fabiana is a wonderful, trustworthy, compassionate, communicative and super friendly person. She sent us pictures of our pup throughout the entire stay with her; something that we loved receiving. We spoke a couple of times throughout our week away just to touch base. Fabiana is a gem.
Jagger was great! Bear & Moose had a wonderful time, and I felt completely at ease leaving them in his care. He kept me updated with pictures every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they were well cared for, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I would absolutely book with Jagger again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
We had a great experience with her! She was very attentive, responsive, and took wonderful care of my dog. She made sure he was fed, took him to the park, and kept me updated with photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. The only small issue was that my dog was a little overfed, but that was completely my fault. I forgot to mention that, because he’s an older dog, he needs to eat a specific amount. I also forgot to tell her that he should be supervised during mealtime around other dogs because he’s a little mischievous—he finishes his own food and then tries to eat everyone else’s too! So I don’t blame her at all for that. Overall, I was very happy with the care she provided, and I would absolutely book her again in the future. Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!
Organ was great with communication! Every time I messaged him he messaged back with in minutes. He took great care of my dog for the weekend. He updated me with photos and was gentle with my dog. He even took her out to walk around the neighborhood as soon as she got there so she can get familiar with it. Will definitely be booking again!
Marty was so good with our little guy! I would highly recommend her to others looking for a sitter. My 13-year old dog had never stayed overnight with anyone but family before and he is usually skittish in new places, so I was nervous to leave him. I’m so glad we found Marty for our weekend away. She calmed my nerves immediately during our visit with her knowledge and care for older pets. She made sure Tobey felt right at home and sent us pictures so we’d know he was happy and snuggled up on the couch. I would definitely board Tobey with Marty again.
Julianna and Matt were amazing dog sitters! We left our pup with them for the weekend and had an outstanding experience. She was very attentive and constantly sent picture/video updates throughout the weekend. Her dog Koda is the sweetest and was a great playmate for our pup. I’d recommend Julianna to anyone looking for a reliable, trusting dog sitter!
She and her family took wonderful care of my small dog for three days. Their home was a great environment for small/medium size dog/cat (but not ideal for large dog) and I could tell my dog was genuinely loved and well cared for. The sitter was very responsive, answered questions quickly, and sent photos and updates throughout the stay. I really appreciated the genuine care, kindness, and communication. I would definitely recommend her.
Kendall was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos. My 2 fur babies came back home to us happy and probably a little worn out from the extra exercise she gave them chasing the ball in her complex's dog park. She's a wonderful dog sitter and a wonderful person. You'll not go wrong trusting her with your fur babies.
Genevieve was extremely friendly and responsive anytime we were in communication. Throughout the stay she provided me updates on my sweet pup and even asked clarifying questions. Additionally, she was accommodating to allow me to extent my booking by a day. You can tell she cares a lot about animals!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fort Myers on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 773 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fort Myers. 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.
100% of Fort Myers 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 Fort Myers 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 Fort Myers 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 Fort Myers.
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 Fort Myers 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.
