We cannot say enough good things about Linda and the care of our pups! She is the greatest! We are so so grateful! Our pups truly had a dream vacation being in her care. I know they will be eager to return! What a comfort for my husband and I to see pictures and videos of them having fun! From grateful hearts! Susan & Gary

Lenetta has done a fabulous job taking care of Linc. She is loving to him and truly takes care of him as if he were her own dog. I can tell he’s having a wonderful time with her because she sends videos of him playing, and having a good time! He comes home happy and tired!

I can not state how happy I am at how well Katie treated our puppy “Pradagi” and us as well. She sent us pictures of our baby everyday we were gone. She treated our baby just as if she was part of her family. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Katie

Bella my Bernadoodle made herself right at home the minute she walked in. She loved the kids and Stefhany and Jean. She is not used to kids or other dogs but I think she was living every minute of it. They sent several videos and pictures to let me see how she was doing. That was so nice it made me feel better. I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home after all the fun at their house vs. boring ole Momma at home. Luckily when I arrived she was so excited. She had been well fed and stimulated because she fell asleep as soon as we got home. This was my first time on Rover, I will most definitely use them again in tue future. Thank you for being such good caretakers of my sweet baby Bella. Sharon C

Laura is the absolute best! She is truly a dog whisperer, and knew and understood my dog Dolly very well (along with the other dogs that were with her). She is so good to them, and truly enjoys their company. She gave my Dolly a real "vacation" while we were on one ourselves. Her home is a dog's dream- different places for them to rest, a pool if they want to swim, a separate room just for them, and a great property for long walks by the lake. Laura is a pleasure to work with, completely on the ball with everything, and wonderful with text messages and updates. Dolly was so well loved, taken care of, and happy during her stay. Thank you, Laura for being the best!

I had a wonderful experience with Cody as my sitter. From the start, he was responsive and reassuring. During the stay, he sent frequent updates complete with adorable photos, which made a huge difference in calming my nerves about leaving my pet behind. Everything went smoothly, and my Haitta was clearly comfortable and loved. Cody is reliable, caring, and communicative. I'll be rebooking with him for sure on my next getaway!

I had booked a 2-night stay for our energetic 18 month Golden and a week before our trip my husband had a medical emergency and was in the hospital for 3 nights. I reached out to Molly and she accepted my last minute request within minutes. I originally asked for a day visit and requested each night as the situation turned out more serious. Molly was great with Koko and very kind to us. Our pup was happy as could be and enjoyed her experience. She’s going back within the week for our planned getaway (as long my husband is medically cleared). We highly recommend Molly for your pup!

Mrs. Sandra took such great care of our boy! She sent lots of updates and pictures so we knew he was doing well. She was also always very responsive. They have a wonderful set up for the pups to play safely in the yard. This was our pups first time staying away from us and he looked like he had the best time and can’t wait to go back!

FAQs for Boarding - Hernando

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hernando on Rover is $26.75 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 469 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hernando. 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.

96% of Hernando 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 Hernando 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 Hernando 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 Hernando.

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 Hernando 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.
