I will definitely be booking with them again in the future. 😌 thank you so much for treating my babies like your own and giving them tons of love.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm Harbor
Jennifer boarded our greyhound, Woody, for four days this week. We are very happy with everything involved in the stay and will be using her services again when the need arises. Communication was outstanding and we were very, very comfortable that he was well cared for while the stay was ongoing. Though he is 7 years old, he was in a greyhound kennel for 6 years and this was his first adventure in a regular dog environment. Jennifer made it work smoothly and we, and Woody, are happy for that. Thank you Jennifer.
Thank you for providing such amazing care for my little Buddy. It was a huge relief knowing that he was in such wonderful hands while we were away on vacation. I was kept up to date on how well he was doing and how much fun he was having. Overall, definitely five plus stars experience. 😊❤️
We love Mary and Nolan and even more after this stay! Unfortunately one of our pups suffered an unexpected medical emergency while we were away. Without hesitation, Mary and Nolan jumped into action and took our pup to our emergency vet and sat with her for and an extended period of time making sure she was loved and cared for. Because of them our pup was never alone and is still with us today!! I can’t recommend them enough. They will go above and beyond to care for your pups! We would give them 10 stars if we could!
Izzy is amazing. I knew the moment I met her she would be perfect for my Clarkie. He loved staying with her and was excited to play with new friends. We will definitely use Izzy again. Highly responsible and so loving. Thanks, Izzy for making Clarkies stay fun and giving me peace of mind when leaving him. ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Palm Harbor on Rover is $40 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 .

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.
94% of Palm Harbor 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 Palm Harbor 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 Palm Harbor 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 Palm Harbor.
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 Palm Harbor 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.
