“Thank you Thomas and Lyndsay for taking care of our girl for three weeks! Loved the pictures that were sent every couple of days. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that she was safe and being well cared for. Thank you for your services. Looking forward to future visits.”
“Tia was great! She watched our 3 dogs (Husky mix, Lab mix, and Dachshund) while we were gone on vacation over a week. I received updates and photos during their stay letting me know my dogs were doing good. Tia having a fenced in backyard was a huge plus for me since my dogs are potty trained, I refuse to have my dogs in a kennel all day. If you want your pets to feel at home while you are away then reach out to Tia for sure, thanks Tia!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“My dogs had the best time on their vacation with Fabiana! She sent soo many pictures and communicated throughout their time away. I'm sure they will miss all the fun they had!”
“Krista was the perfect person to care for Amy. She made Amy feel right at home. We were sent pictures and updates daily. I never worried a minute while she was in Krista's care. We will definitely use Krista again without hesitation.”
About: I have been caring for pets of family and friends since childhood, and over time it naturally became a passion. I have experience with cats, large and small dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and currently I have a rabbit of my own. I am also an exotic pet lover. I have always researched and studied a lot about animal care and health, I like to go beyond the basics to make sure I can provide the best care for my pets. One of my biggest challenges (and achievements) was training my rabbit at home <3 I have always been very attentive with my pets’ health, I even had a personal veterinarian for all of them, including routine check-ups for my hamster haha. For me it is really easy to have a connection with animals and quickly build trust with them, which helps me understand their needs and behaviors. I truly hope to become a veterinarian in the future and continue dedicating my life to animal care. I believe that any living being that is dependent and innocent deserves the highest level of care, love, and protection possible. I currently work part-time, but due to the low season I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to adapt easily to each pet’s needs and provide consistent, loving care throughout the day. I live in a gated community, in a apartment with a lot of space. The condominium offers a dedicated dog park with a fenced area where dogs can safely run and play, as well as walking trails for daily exercise. If needed, I can also share photos of the environment so you can feel fully confident and comfortable about where your pet will be staying <3
“Vetra was amazing with my girls and I highly recommend her! I have already rebooked for a second stay. Vetra kept my girls on their routine and sent me pictures and messages to let me know they were doing well. I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing that they were being well loved and cared for while I was gone.”
About: All I've ever known since childhood was dogs, they've been a constant part of my time here on earth and helped to foster my love for all animals. Throughout my life I've always helped take care of family members pets as well as my friend's pets and it has always been a source of joy. Over the years I've cared for a variety of animals spanning different amounts of time. Be it my Uncle's dog for a weekend or a family friend's house, dog, cat, 6 chickens, and 4 ducks for a couple months I can help accommodate any need you may have and I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I'm currently back from college and am working part time. I'll have more than enough free time to accommodate your busy schedule and meet whatever needs you and your pets may have! I have a fenced yard, a pool, and a very sweet little dog who loves company. With a very spacious car and a personal fondness for hiking I can take your pet on nature excursions or to vet appointments. If needed, I can easily separate pets for feeding or quiet time to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable in their own space.
“We had never boarded our dogs before, and I had some anxiety about the process. From the beginning, Alain alleviated my concerns as he communicated early and often about the process. We set up a meeting in person before we left and brought our little dog along. Upon meeting Alain and his lovely family, I knew our pups were in good hands, so we could enjoy our trip without concerns. Alaim had printed out our instructions and was clearly prepared for their arrival. During our trip, he posted photos and videos every day we were gone so we could see how our dogs were doing, and they clearly were healthy and happy. Any question or concern I had, I received an immediate response. I highly recommend Alain, and if we travel again would not hesitate to book him again.”
“Marta was awesome! She kept me updated with text and photos of my dog brandy. This was Brandy's first time away from home so it was probably a bit more than what Marta and I expected being that Brandy is a puppy. Nevertheless, Quinn's Marta's dog seem to enjoy Brandy and help communicate effectively with her. So happy that Marta was able to watch her while I was out of town.”
“Asalah was so great! She sent pictures of our dog throughout his stay and kept us updated with his days and treated him like her own. Couldn’t ask for anyone else! Definitely 5 star!⭐️”
“First time leaving Skye with Sandra. She updated us throughout the stay with pictures. Skye came back happy. She had so much fun with Sandra and the other dogs! We will definitely be using Sandra again! Thanks so much!”
“What a weight off my shoulders when Ollie is with Celea. I know he is treated and spoiled like he is her own. I would recommend her to anyone. I will be using her during the week or weekends, so Ollie can play with her babies. Thank you Celea for everything!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myers
Thomas & Lyndsay are truly the best! Our dog is always very excited to spend time with them, and they treat our dog as one of their own. They are flexible if pick up times need to be adjusted and are always very communicative. I always trust our dog is in good hands when we need to be away.
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!
Tarah was amazing! My boy can be pretty anxious when I’m away and can require a little extra understanding. She never made me feel bad about him being a dog. She was kind and patient and understanding. She sent me updates every day and I totally felt at ease leaving him there. I can’t wait to use her in the future.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fort Myers on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of June 2026, there are 749 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.
