“Olga was fantastic with my fur babies over the weekend! Constant photos and updates of how they were adjusting and getting along. I would definitely refer her to anyone in need of a Pet sitter, thanks so much Olga!”
“Diana was great taking care Dexter. Everything great. We received daily pics and videos of Dexter. He also got a grooming while there. Thank you so much for your great service.”
“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.”
“I'm so glad we found Krista to care for our dog while we were out of town, she took great care of him! My dog usually takes some time to trust people but he warmed up to Krista right away, it was obvious to me too how much she loves and knows about dogs. Her communication was wonderful and she provided me with an update and photos each day, which I really appreciated. She has a very lovely and clean home with a nice fenced yard. I highly recommend Krista to take care of your”
““This is the second time I’ve used Jessica’s pet sitting services, and once again, I’m beyond happy with the experience. She takes such great care of Joy, and he’s always so excited and content every time he’s with her. It’s clear that she truly cares about our furry companions, and I couldn’t ask for a better person to look after my pet. Highly recommend!””
“Vivian did a great job keeping me updated on how everything was going with our dog. She didn't just give me general updates, but instead, she provided details and made me feel at ease. I was confident that our dog was being well taken care of.”
“If I were to dream up the perfect pet sitter, it would be Yani. She truly loves to care for my dog and I felt comfortable with her immediately. Each day she sent me photos and sometimes video of my doggie during his stay with her. When our flight was delayed getting back into town, she was so accommodating and let us pick him up late. I swear my dog loves her and her family! :)) Thank you Yani!!!!”
“Marcia took excellent care of our Ella. We loved the numerous pictures daily and updates on how she was doing. Beautiful clean home with a fenced backyard. I will definitely use Marcia again and would recommend to anyone who needs a warm friendly dog sitter.”
About: I’ve raised and trained tons of family members from Pomeranians to English Mastiffs. What sets us apart is when you pull up to drop them off, your friend will be running up to the door out of excitement. You set your rules, and we follow them while we have your family member as a guest. I’ve gotten to a place where I can let my business run itself and my golden needs a friend. It’s too hot outside to bring him out a lot, so I’m bringing his friends to him. We have a fenced yard, separate lanai with a pool. Now, we don’t let our guest pets in the pool unless specifically authorized by you! Luke we said…your rules, our home.
“Blue came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly cared for. It’s not easy finding someone you trust with your fur baby, but Melissa made it easy. We’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
About: Pet care isn’t a hobby for me—it’s my main job—so my time and attention are fully focused on the dogs I care for. I understand how important trust and reliability are when leaving your pet with someone else. My goal is to create loving environment where your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is my primary job and my schedule is fully dedicated to the dogs I watch. This allows me to give each dog consistent attention, care, and supervision in a safe and loving environment. Whether your dog is staying overnight in your home or boarding with me, they’ll receive consistent care, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day and night. I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine with meals, walks, playtime, and bedtime, helping them feel comfortable and at home.
“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.”
“Excellent care!! Gleidys took wonderful care of my doodle. She kept me updated on his day, sent pictures and made us feel comfortable he was doing great while we were away. Definitely recommend!”
“I would highly recommend Mark and Fran as Dog Sitter’s They are warm and kind people My dog looked happy and content when I picked her up I will be using them again on our next trip!”
“Pablo and Elaine were fantastic with my boys! It had been a while since they had been boarded so I was a little concerned but they had a blast playing with all the little dogs and had no problems! Plus, they loved Pablo and Elaine!”
“Awesome couple! Sandy sent us pics of the girls sleeping on the couch and even in their bed! Our one dog won’t even sleep in OUR bed! They seemed like they had a great time. Sandy and John will definitely be our go to sitters from now on!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the moment I dropped them off, I felt confident they were in great hands. Throughout my weekend trip, I received regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was friendly, communicative, and clearly cared about my dogs’ well-being. The photos showed them looking comfortable, relaxed, and happy, and when I picked them up, they were happy and well cared for. It’s obvious she treats the pets in her care with kindness and attention. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again in the future!”
“Marta did a wonderful job taking care of Brandy. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure Brandy was happy and comfortable. I appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Brandy was well cared for and seemed relaxed and content when I returned. I would happily book with Marta again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. If Brandy could leave her own review, I’m convinced it would be a glowing 5-star rating with a few extra tail wags thrown in.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Matlacha
Elaine was fantastic! Not only was our boy only a 5 month old puppy at the time, but being an English Mastiff puppy, he was already almost 70+lbs when Elaine took care of him. We know a dog that size that's also a puppy can definitely be a handful. We boarded him with Elaine for 4 nights, and she treated him like he was her own, sent us regular updates and pictures, and gave him his oral medication regularly. Being the spoiled little baby that he is, it was certainly great to leave him with someone that allowed him on the furniture as well for snuggling and sleeping. We definitely plan to use Elaine again, and her family was also amazing with him. Thanks again Elaine!
Olga is the best! It is such a relief to have a dependable caregiver for my dogs when I have to leave them. She treats them like her own. I am especially relieved to know she has experience with seniors and special needs dogs. The daily pics make my heart happy. As long as she's available, Olga is my go-to dog sitter. Thank you, Olga, for the last-minute extra days you were able to watch them.
Jessica is always great! My dog has a lot of anxiety but she is always accommodating, makes sure to ask if any changes since the last time at drop off, and communicates well! I can tell that he is comfortable there. I originally picked her after seeing her history & experience with dogs noted on her profile and am glad that I did!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Matlacha home-away-from-home, 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 Matlacha.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Matlacha 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 , 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 .
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.
