“It was apparent Heather and her children took great care of my furbaby. I appreciate the communication during his stay. During the meet and greet, I knew Zeus would have a great stay! I will definitely book her again!”
“Athena & Richi made us feel super comfortable leaving our pups while we went on a weekend trip. They sent us so many updates and photos of our dogs & we could tell they were having the best time. We’ll definitely use them again!! Thank you guys!”
“We are so thankful we found Anne to take care of our Jiggy. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well taken care. She treats him like her own, and Jiggy loves to go to see her ! There’s not enough stars or space here to express how happy with Anne,”
“Mocha and Chai really enjoyed their stay with Janel, Jeffrey and Olivia. They were so communicative with updates on how they were doing and sent many cute photos of them! Our pups will definitely be visiting them soon for their next stay 😊”
“She and her dog Willa are the best! They took care of my dog for a long weekend and he couldn’t have been in better care of and tuckered out from having such fun with Willa. Communication was excellent and she doesn’t “watch” a kennel’s worth of dogs…which is nice for a first experience for him. Really glad I found her and couldn’t recommend anyone better!”
“Patricia was so wonderful- she was very understanding in my need to make sure my dog was a good fit since we had recently moved to the area. She and her helpers did a wonderful job watching my dog. I had at least one video every day my dog stayed with her and she always answered my messages quickly! My dog had such a lovely stay that she wasn’t all too happy to come back home with me. Can’t sing her praises enough! I’d recommend her to anyone and everyone who asks and I will definitely book with her again. Thank you for looking after my girl Patricia!”
“Kristen was most accommodating to my last minute requirement for a pup sitter. She was very communicative and sent me pics of my pup throughout her 2 day stay. I got delayed due to construction and rain so I ran late getting back. Kristen was most understanding as I kept in contact to keep her apprised of my ETA. My pup wad happy to see me and looked very well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend Kristen if you need a dog sitter as she is amazing. Thank you again, Kristen!”
“Would highly recommend Kristin! She sent a lot of updates and my dogs seemed to be having a great time the entire time they were in her care. Everyone in her family is a dog lover so there was no shortage of attention to go around. Looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“I was so worried Pilot would be anxious since we’ve never left him with anyone. Well Stephen was so GREAT! He sent several pictures daily and responded to my texts right away. He made me feel at ease and I could see Pilot was happy and made a new friend in sweet Bodhi ? as well! Would give him 10 stars!”
“Norma was wonderful about sending me pictures and updates throughout the time my dog was with her and her family. I was a bit nervous since this was my first time of leaving my dog with a stranger. I don’t feel like she is a stranger anymore and I am happy I have someone I am comfortable leaving my dog with when needed.”
“I want to express my sincere gratitude to Maxine, the incredible pet sitter at your facility, for taking such amazing care of my fur baby, Charlie. Maxine went above and beyond, providing exceptional care and great updates throughout Charlie’s stay. I highly recommend Maxine to any pet owner seeking top-notch care. Thank you, Maxine, for your love and dedication!”
“My 2 dogs had an amazing stay with Jessica and Colin! Their daughters are so sweet and love animals. They treated my pups like family and made them feel right at home :)”
“Christina was the perfect puppy sitter for our 1.5 year old dauchsund, Frankie! He stayed with Christina and her husband for three nights. Everyday we received photos, videos and text updates. It was comforting to see how well he was doing. Christina has a beautiful home with the perfect size yard suitible for many companions! She provided toys for my little nugget (which I'm sure he destroyed), and took him on many walks. I imagine Frank played with the other dogs the entire time he was there, because he was exhausted when we got him home. Not even the opening of the refrigerator door phased him! I highly recommend Christina for all your doggy sitting needs!”
“First time sitting with them and it went amazing! Bashful seemed to love it so much and it was supposed to just be a cheaper option than my normal sitter but i will most likely be doing the switch and using them from now on!!”
“Lorraine presents herself with a loving & caring smile. I felt 100% confident leaving my 6lb chihuahua with Lorraine. Your pet would be lucky and well taken care by Lorraine.”

Jennifer was great with my Hugo again and kept me informed during his stay with plenty of pictures and updates every day. I am so glad he’s well taken care of and has nice puppy friends to keep him company while I’m away. Jennifer even took him to the park with her sweet daughter one evening, and I already have more stays booked. Thank you!
Lisa is fantastic!! The hardest part about vacation is leaving our dogs. Lisa is so wonderful. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing that they were being loved, cared for and walked every day. She sent us regular updates and pics throughout our trip. We came back to two very happy and relaxed dogs. They even missed her when they got back to our house. 10/10 would recommend Lisa and we will absolutely be working with her again!
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 2,809 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Palm Harbor. 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.
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.
