“Highly recommend!! Our pup is FULL of energy and at times doesn’t have his listening ears on :) we are so thankful to be able to leave him with Ms Olga and still enjoy time away with family 💕 thank you !”

“Diana provided very good care of our Aussiedoodle for 13 days. Videos of walks were sent to us while we were out of town, along with Diana's updates. As we were driving to pick up our doggie, we could see him in the driveway (on a leash of course) wagging his tail. He was so happy playing with Diana's teenage son. We are very pleased with Diana's service, and we will definitely use her boarding service when needed in the future.”

“We left our dogs over a week, they enjoyed their stay and we loved getting our daily videos., we looked forward to them every day and made us feel special. Alain was very attentive and caring. We will definitely leave them again and highly recommend!!”

“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.”

“We were so happy leaving our dogs with Arleen and Daniel. We are planning a trip in October and we wanted to try an overnight for our kids first, to see how they would do. They kept us updated with pictures, made us feel totally at ease, and even though one of our little babies had some separation anxiety, they didn’t seem bothered by it at all. They understood it was their first time away from us since we had them. We are looking forward to using them in the future. They were the perfect match for our crazy teenagers.”

“Yani & her family were great! She responds in a timely manner and provided me with updates and pictures throughout the day. I’ll definitely continue booking with Yani in the future.”
“Mike does a great job with our pup, Hallie. She is always very excited to go over to Mike’s and is always happy and healthy when we pick her up. He is very flexible with any changes in arrangements we may have, is incredibly responsive, and has a pleasant, positive demeanor which makes it a no brainer for us when choosing a sitter for our dog. Overall, Mike is great and we hope to have him as a caretaker for Hallie and a friend to us for years to come.”

“Kathy had great communication from the beginning. We set up a meet & greet ahead of time. Alula had the opportunity to interact with Kathy’s pets. After dropping Alula off we got regular photos & updates. I would leave Alula with Kathy again.”

“Hi Maria, Thank you so much for taking such great care of Annie! We really appreciate all the extra love, walks, and attention you gave. It means a lot to us knowing she was in such good hands. Thanks again! The Williams Family”

“I’m so grateful to have found her! She watched our dog while my daughter was undergoing a biopsy, and I can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind she gave us during such a stressful time. She did an excellent job—our dog felt comfortable, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed her company. It’s not always easy for our pup to warm up to someone new, but she took to her right away. We will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a loving and reliable pet sitter.”

“Thank you for caring for our German Shepherd! Milo had a blast during his extended stay. I would recommend Elisa to anyone looking for a professional pet sitter. Her home is super pet friendly and had big fenced in yard for dogs to play. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Elisa's care”

“Sarah took such great care of my baby. It was her first time being boarded, so I was a bit of a nervous dog mom, but I felt comfortable after talking with Sarah and gaining insight on her knowledge of dog behavior and reading through her reviews. I enjoyed the updates during her stay with photos and we will be a repeat customer :)”

“Catherine is amazing. She is flexible and considerate-she took my fur baby (Hunter) 30 minutes earlier than we've agreed upon without any hesitation. She sent updates and pictures at least twice a day. I never have to wonder what's going on because she kept me informed. Catherine has two of her own, which is a bonus for us because they are also small breed and friendly. They were great together. Hunter was anxious on his first night but Catherine knew just what to do. Catherine treated my baby like her own. She took Hunter for a walk twice a day, and on top of that, she has let him out in her fenced yard for a quick fresh air between those walks. Catherine has a calm demeanor and very professional. Today, my flight arrival was slightly delayed so I was rushing. I came to pick up Hunter a few minutes late. Coming from a long flight, it was a great relief that she was very understanding and that she had Hunter, on a lease with his belongings all set and ready to go. As if she knew I needed my precious restful sleep ASAP. Catherine's awesome didn't end there, we got home and found out that she sent us a bag of goodies for Hunter. Catherine is simply the best! I can't imagine anyone else can do better than that! Highly recommended!”

“Lauren was a wonderful sitter for my dog. He needs a lot of attention and she was capable of taking care of that. My dog loves kids and kids love to play and they were a perfect match. More importantly than anything else she took my last minute reservation even though she normally doesn't after Rover canceled my previous reservation with another sitter without telling us. She took our puppy in and took amazing care of him. There is not enough good things I could say that would do her justice. We will be using her in the future to watch our dog anytime we need it and she is available.”

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.
