“Heather and her family were so great with our little dog. She was super easy to get in touch with, sent updates on how the dog was doing, and made drop off and pick up a breeze.”
“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 :)”
“Jennifer was very flexible in accepting a last minute request for our puppy Holly over the holidays. She kept us well informed through communication and pictures. Would definitely recommend her!!”

“I’ve been using Rover for several years and Jean is one of my favorites! She’s not only polite but she’s super responsive, sends lots of pictures and updates, and most of all took great care of my pup! Thanks Jean!”
“Richard and Carmen are amazing people! They loved on Luna and made her feel comfortable and right at home from the first night! They sent pictures regularly, and loved her like their own. We will definitely be using them again when we have the need, and refer our friends their way!”
“Always a nice guy! Seems to genuinely care about my big boy. We have boarded several times with Patrick, and plan trips around his availability so we have peace of mind when we are away from home.”
“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!”
“My dogs had a great time with Jaime. They were well taken care of and given lots of love. Jaime was very responsive and when we had a last minute issue and was so gracious to keep the dogs a little while longer than expected.”
“Courtney was very sweet and took great care of my pup! She exceeded expectations by taking my dogo to the doggy park and for frequent walks. Her communication throughout the day was great and she took the best photos of my pup interacting with others. Would definitely use her as a sitter again!”
“Asha had a wonderful time with Daniel. He provided regular updates and communication was great. She loved hanging out with his friendly dog, taking walks, and playing in their fenced yard.”
“We trust leaving our dogs, Mango, Leo, and Rambo, with Debbie, knowing they’re in excellent hands. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly cares for our pups. Even during a hurricane. Highly recommend!!”
“Norma was wonderful. When my wife and I met her we were immediately impressed by her and her setup for dog boarding. It all made us comfortable with boarding our small Shi Tzu and Maltese mixed girl while we were away for a week. From the photos she sent us to the demeanor or our dog when i picked her up I could tell that our dog was in good hands while we were away.”
“Leslie did a fantastic job work with Coda. She was very attentive of her blind eyes and taking her insulin before meals. I received plenty of updates and pictures over the one night stay as well. Highly recommend and will use Leslie again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 11 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a mini Goldendoodle, and my roommate has a medium Goldendoodle, so I’m very familiar with their energy, personalities, and daily care needs. I’m reliable, hardworking, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or attentive care while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for every step of the way! I work fully from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’m able to be attentive to their needs. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks to help them get exercise. Every dog is different, so I’m happy to match their energy level and routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm Harbor
This was our first time using Rover! We picked Jennifer because of her excellent prior reviews. Jennifer is the most kind and compassionate person we have met in some time. Her love for dogs was quite apparent from the time we met her and throughout our Golden Retriever Buddy’s stay. She sent photos daily to comfort us that our Buddy was enjoying the 5 days with her family. We will definitely use her in the future for our boarding needs. We highly recommend her!! 😁😁😁
Patrick is great! We have booked many vacations based on HIS availability to watch our Cane Corso Boa. Our big boy is reactive, but Patrick has such a calm presence, and Boa can just chill. We have nicknamed him “uncle Patrick.” We get pictures of Boa every day, which helps us know he is happy. I will call Patrick EVERY time we need a sitter. I hope my review doesn’t make you book him up though.
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 September 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 September 2026, there are 2,841 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.
95% 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.
