“Our German Shepherd loved his 10-day stay-- he was entertained by watching the neighboring farm animals and playing with their dog Moose. Kelsey took special care during a big thunderstorm, knowing he was particularly anxious. Very accommodating and flexible!”

About: I’ve baby sat many pets in my neighborhood growing up, I love spending time with animals of any kind! They make me so happy :) I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician and work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and care. I love taking walks at Linear Park and spending time at Bonita Dog Beach with my senior pup. She is extremely friendly and absolutely loves the company of other cats and dogs, so your furry friend will have a welcoming companion during their stay! I’m available for house sitting, boarding in my home, or dog walks—whatever works best for you and your pet. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I live in a pet friendly apartment. There is also a dog park and dog spa on the property! I I can ensure your pet will get plenty of exercise on our walk and there’s plenty of beautiful things to explore!
“Bentley loves staying with her! She takes amazing care of him, keeps me updated with photos, and makes sure he gets plenty of exercise and fun at the dog park. I always feel comfortable knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“I had such a great experience with Brooklyn watching my dog, Tyson. She was amazing from start to finish; kind, accommodating, flexible, and very understanding, especially since this was a last minute booking. She sent regular updates and pictures, which I really appreciated and made me feel so much better while I was away. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for dogs. As a big dog mom, Tyson is my baby, so trusting someone with him is a big deal for me. Tyson has been watched by many people but I have to say this was probably the first time I left him with someone and didn’t feel worried or anxious at all. I knew he was in great hands. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! Thank you so much Brooklyn, we really appreciate you caring for Tyson and I’m sure he will miss his new friends. (Also forgot to mention, she has the cutest dogs and they were so sweet and playful with Tyson. Her dogs seem very well behaved and loved, I would trust leaving Tyson with his new friends again! It’s a win win situation, leaving your pup with a great sitter and your pup gets to have lots of fun and play time! As soon as I picked up Tyson, he took a nap after all the fun he had ) thank you again!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud rescue dog owner who has shared my home with pets for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve cared for almost every creature under the sun—from dogs and cats to birds, fish, gerbils, and frogs! Having a rescue dog of my own has given me deep patience, empathy, and an understanding of different pet personalities and boundaries. For years, I’ve been the trusted go-to pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. Whether your pet needs a calm, reassuring touch, structured routine, or just plenty of play and belly rubs, I treat every animal in my care like family. I am a stay at home mom living in Riverhall with a super open and flexible schedule to fit your fur baby’s needs! Easy drop-ins, regular walks, or quick check-ins whenever you need an extra set of hands will be easily accommodated in my day to day life. As a neighbor, keeping your pets safe and your home secure is my top priority. Here is how I ensure a safe, stress-free experience for you and your animals: Pet-First Approach & Rescue Experience: Having a rescue dog myself, I know every animal has unique triggers, boundaries, and energy levels. I always pay close attention to body language, keeping dogs on double-check secure leashes and avoiding unnecessary interactions with unknown dogs on walks. Home Security & Key Care: Your privacy and security matter. I safely store house keys/codes, double-check that doors and gates are fully locked upon leaving, and ensure your home stays just as you left it.
“Elaine was great! Her place and clean and comfy perfect for the pups! She sent great photos and updates daily. Our pups loved playing with her daughter as well! Would definitely book again!”
“I have an extremely shy and reserved pooch that needs calm and peace. Plus, my dog likes cats so that was a bonus. She was with Brittany over a week, came home with no signs of anxiety at all. That's all I needed to know. Thank you, Brittany!”
“Neysha was amazing! I will 100% use her again in the future and I highly recommend her. The communication was superb and we really appreciated all the pictures and videos she sent us of Macy while we were away. Macy was actually sad to leave her place when we got home. Do not hesitate to book with Neysha!”

“Pamela is a complete lifesaver. My husband and I love our two doodle pups so much and had never been away from them for more than a day. After having a successful playdate with Pamela, we boarded them with Pamela for a week while we were out of the country for vacation. Pamela knows how attached we are to our pups and she sent us daily videos and pictures and answered all my messages. In all the videos I could tell our pups were having a blast and vere also enjoying the vacation. Pamela is a true dog lover and does everything she can to make your babies happy during their stay. She exercises them every day with walks or dog park outings. She takes care of them like they are her own. Also she visited our house three times while we were on our vacation to clean up and feed our rabbit. Pamela is amazing and I am so glad we found her!”
“Lyndsay has become like family to us. She is an exceptional caregiver to our dog and cat, and has become invaluable for our busy schedule. She is reliable and responsible, communicates multiple times daily with photos and updates on our pets. They clearly love her and enjoy her care. On our recent trip, our flight home was cancelled, and Lyndsay went out of her way to come back and take care of things at our home for an extra 24 hours til we were able to get home. She went above and beyond to leave our home as she found it. We came home to happy pets and a clean house.”
About: Experienced Pet Care You Can Trust! Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of professional experience caring for pets. I started dog walking and pet sitting in high school, and after graduating, I became a certified dog & cat groomer, spending the next 10 years working hands-on with animals of all breeds, sizes, ages and personalities. My experience goes far beyond dogs and cats, too! I've cared for reptiles including turtles, frogs, and lizards, so I'm comfortable with pets that have special routines and unique needs. One of the thing I love most about pet care is getting to know each animal's individual personality. I've worked with puppies who are still learning the ropes, senior pets who need extra patience, and pets who need a little additional care and attention. During my grooming career, I've also worked with pets dealing with health conditions such as diabetes, IVDD, ear infections, seizures and other medical needs. I'm comfortable with following medication instructions and caring for pets who require a little extra TLC. Whether you pet needs a midday walk, some company while you're away, medication, feeding, playtime, or simply a little extra love, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'm happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe and being well cared for while your away! Pets I'm comfortable caring for *Dogs- puppies, adults & seniors *Cats *Turtles *Frogs *Lizards & other reptiles *Birds *Pets requiring medication * Senior pets & pets with special needs * Multiple pet households I'm currently a stay-at-home mom, and with my kids in school, I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I'm home most days and available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I'm also available most weekends and can work with your schedule when possible. I have a clean, safe, pet-loving home with a large fenced-in yard. Every pet had different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions before their stay or visit. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Fort Myers is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myers
I had a wonderful experience with my cat sitter, Fiorella! She was reliable, caring, and attentive to my cat’s needs. It gave me peace of mind knowing Moana was in such good hands while I was away. I really appreciated the care and attention they provided, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.
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.
Christopher is an exceptional pet caregiver! I’m not sure he did it, but he cared for several dogs with different temperaments, ages and sizes. But he did so and my Raphael did not appear to be short changed or neglected. I received daily and some days multiple videos or pictures of my guy. He shared concerns and great suggestions for how I might train and support Raphael as he matures past 6 months. I was comforted to be so far away that my big pup was being taken care of so very, very well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Fort Myers is $35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 797 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fort Myers. About 94% of Fort Myers sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
