“Hugh watched my little lotus for two nights and made me feel completely at ease about leaving him for the first time. Very thankful for Hughs love of dogs and opening his home. I will definitely be bringing Lotus back!”
“I was very nervous considering we’ve never left our boy before, but Remy had so much fun! He slept for two days when got home lol. So thankful that we have a place for him to stay and be taken care of when we go on vacation!”
“Great 1st experience using Rover. My dog Athena was very well taken care of and I was sent pictures and videos of her to keep my mind at ease. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Amazing - went on cruise for 8 days & from the moment we met the family & left Milo we were worried free. Family photos with Milo gave us a complete piece of mind. Definitely recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Susan was absolutely wonderful! I was so nervous to leave our babies while we went on a cruise, especially since I wouldn’t have service/internet but Susan made sure to give me updates as long as possible and when we got back. Drop off & pick up were quick and easy, even though both my pups are clingy. I will most definitely be using Susan anytime we need a sitter.”
“Elisa did an amazing job watching my Beagle. She sent videos of their time together which was very thoughtful. Thanks so much for taking great care of her. Will definitely book again when needed.”
“Laquitta and James were awesome with our Chloe. She's a small dog and can be a little picky about who she hangs with. But she enjoyed her week long stay while we traveled out of state. Will definitely use them again and would recommend to anyone else with a smaller dog.”
“The boarding with Gage and Ann was everything I could hope for and more! My recent rescue melted into their loving structure like he had always been family. The regular updates and the prompt communication made it easy to relax and not worry about my pup one bit. My pup isn’t the easiest to manage and Gage was spectacular at recognizing body language cues and helped bring out more confidence in my dog. I will happily rebook any time I need a sitter!”
“This is my third time having Diana watch our dog and every time it’s a great experience. I appreciate her communication and her kind attitude and our doggie always comes back home happy ❤️”
“We had a fantastic experience with Alexus! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the entire process so easy. We probably overwhelmed her with a bunch of information about our dogs, but she handled everything perfectly. We loved receiving pictures of Webster and Charlotte and felt completely at ease knowing they were well-loved. We are very thankful and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Krista is absolutely amazing. My dog have never taken so well with anyone. She's an Army brat as well, mear & dear to my heart.... be sure to check out her plants for sale too. Amazing house overall My dogs officially have "another woman" I was so entertained while I was gone, with the cute photos and updates. Super great lady. I hope she will always have openings for my boys. I'm not telling any friends about her, so she can be steady fun for my pups. Yes. She's THAT good, I think we'll keep her around. :"WE RUV THAT PRETTY LADY WITH TREATS & GLOW COLLARS," Blue and Shiloh "SHES A GREAT SNUGGLER AND EVEN RUBBED IT IN A BIT WHEN SHE MESSAGED MOM,"- Blue "I slept for 6 hours when I got home from Miss Kristas, And Mom had to wake me up for dinner,"- Shiloh the Treat Miser”
“Katherine was an excellent sitter for my two dogs. She kept me up to date throughout the day and shared pictures and videos of my girls. She took care of my girls as if they were her own - spoiled and pampered. Katherine was great and I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs! I'll definitely call on Katherine again in the future to take care of my girls.”
“Denny and her husband were great! I needed a sitter last minute one day notice and I found them to be very accommodating to my need. Great care was taken with my Dior. They treated him like he belonged to them. Very attentive & loving. Spacious home and yard. Pics and videos were sent. Definitely recommend checking them out.”
“We were so happy with Charles, he took wonderful care of our Dog. He kept us updated and sent pictures. Whenever we need to leave our dog behind in the future we will definitely be using Charles again!”
“Maxine is very personable and professional. We had the honor of leaving our beloved Oreo in her care for 2 weeks not only did she keep us updated with photos and videos, but, she also responded to each and every text message we sent, even sending us unsolicited texts on Oreo's care & appetite pattern. She was very warm and attentive to his needs and our concerns. We highly recommend her, if you are seeking someone that is going to love and care for you fur baby just as you do. We will definitely be using her again in May and thereafter‼️ Thank you so much Maxime my Husband, Me & Oreo greatly appreciate you & your service.”
“I am very happy that I have found Shayla to be my home-away-from-home for my Maltese! Bentley loves being outside and Shayla provides a large yard and watches him just as well whether he is inside the house or outside the house. She treated Bentley with all of the love and care that I would provide for him myself. She sent me daily pictures of him too so that I felt very comfortable that he was happy while I was away. It is blessing to have found her.”

I think is Alexa's fifth stay with Sandra, Alexa always gets good care, and Sandra is flexible to meet our schedule. Her place is very close to home so it's convenient to pick Alexa up on the way home after a trip, this time was a 2-night visit. I never have to worry while I'm away.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ocklawaha on Rover is $44.4 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 504 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ocklawaha. 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.
97% of Ocklawaha 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 Ocklawaha 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 Ocklawaha 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 Ocklawaha.
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 Ocklawaha 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.
