“Thomas and Lindsay were so great with my pup! My baby needed meds and was wearing a cone when he stayed with them and they were very good with administering his meds and making him comfortable. Thank you Thomas and Lindsay”
“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.”
“Tia took such good care of our puppies, that they were spoiled! I can imagine that caring for 2 active dogs is not an easy task but we really appreciate knowing that they are in good hands. Tia picked them up and dropped them off which is an extra service that makes handoff so much easier for us. Tia is also a veterinarian so we rest assured that if anything happened to the our puppies she would know exactly what to do.”
“Gulcin took amazing care of my two cats. I boarded them at her home and they could not have been more comfortable, happier, or better cared for. Would absolutely recommend this sitter.”
“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!”
“Summit is awesome! Not only was he able to take our Matrix on short notice, he arranged a meet and greet prior to service. He is kind, listens, and is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of training, breeds, and making dogs and owners comfortable. Our dog had a blast and we didn’t have to worry. Will most definatly book again with Summit.”
“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.”
“Emily, Aaron, their two boys, and their little Yorkie were super to deal with. They have a wonderful home, and yard, set up very nicely for my dog Snoogums to visit. I felt very comfortable with the arrangement. They sent me photos throughout the stay, with my dog playing, going on walks, sleeping. and playing. I felt comfort while on my trip with their communications. I would definitely repeat with them while away on my next trip. A definite A+ Dale & Snoogums”
“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 !”
“They sent so many videos and photos, which helped a lot considering how much I missed my sweet puppy, Virginia. Their dog, Max, quickly became Virginia’s best bud, and their entire family was so welcoming. Virginia was immediately comfortable and so loved the entire time. The home was clean and the backyard was spacious and fenced in. She had tons of play time and more than enough attention. This is where I’d board my dog if I had to again.”
“Xiao was a great sitter. We needed a last minute boarding and she answered fast and was ready for drop off ASAP. She sent pictures and videos the whole time and our dog had a great visit. You can tell she is a big animal lover! We will definitely use her again if we’re in the area.”
“Great experience with Karen! Our dogs were very well cared for and clearly had a great time. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands, and they came home happy and relaxed. I would absolutely use Karen again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
“This was Rocky's longest stay with Krista - 7 days. WE received pictures 2x a day. Our Rocky was happy - went on walks, got lots of snuggles and was well cared for! We are so happy that we found Krista. We will definitely continue to use her in the future. Worth mentioning ...we had our Granddaughters wedding in Ohio. Kristra was not feeling well and still took care of Rocky. Rather than cancel she still took care of Rocky for us She's the BEST!!”
“We are the “parents” of an 11 year old English Cocker Spaniel. Gunner is great fun and a wonderful traveler, so we rarely leave him behind. In his advancing years, Gunner developed some health issues . . . all managed really well with supplements. However, his meal and supplement regimen is somewhat involved, so we were quite anxious to leave him with just anyone. But after reading Pablo’s dog savvy history, we felt that he might be a good match for our Gunner. When Pablo mentioned to me that “in our home, dogs come first . . . humans come second,” I was impressed! So, we decided to book the dates. We left Gunner for the long weekend and were very pleased to find that Gunner came back a very happy, healthy boy. He enjoyed being part of Pablo’s “pack!” Pablo has a real knack with dogs . . . and his home is set up for the convenience and comfort of the dogs under his care. Gunner was able to sleep anywhere he wanted . . . all of the furniture is covered with blankets. The back yard is fenced and there’s a lot of room for the dogs to run around and play. Although Gunner will be accompanying us on most of our travels, we will use Pablo when that won’t be possible. Also, it will be great to just leave him there for a night every now and then so that we can be freed up to do some day trips. Thank you, Pablo, for providing such loving care of our boy! ”
“Celea was absolutely amazing from the time of the meet and great to the time she cared for my dogs. They were so nervous for me to leave them but they warmed right up and I was able to see that from the pictures and videos she sent me on a daily basis. She has a huge heart for dogs and it shows!! Wonderful!! Will be using her again.”
“Randal was an absolute delight to correspond with, and our pup Molly seemed thoroughly delighted. Randal provided multiple updates, pics and videos: keeping us in the loop. We’ll absolutely be checking to see if he’s available on our next trip out of town. Leaving Molly with Randal & Karen will be a no-brainer on our next multi-day excursion.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Fort Myers is $45

Great experience! Gulcin was very prompt and great at communicating. We did a meet and greet the day before because I’m an over protective dog mom. That went great so I dropped my boy off the next day. She was amazing at giving updates and sending pictures. I don’t think my dog wanted to leave. Haha. He sat down in front of her for scratches before we left and he’s never done that with a sitter before, so I took that as a great sign. Pickup and drop off were easy. Would recommend!
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 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 770 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.
