“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help in finding Sadie a new and wonderful home with a playmate. Your attention and love towards animals is so refreshing. Thank you for everything once again.”
“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“My pup loves staying with Kim and Glen! She gets tons of play time outside, and also lots of couch time and snuggles with Glen. She’s always such a happy girl when I come back from trips and I love the report card and treats they send her home with.”
“This is our first time using Rover and we were fortunate to have contacted Tatiana for the care of our beagle during our vacation. She was spectacular with our puppy and kept us up to date with messages, photos and videos. I give Tatiana a 10 out of 10 and we will definitely be scheduling with her again in the future.”
“Eve did a wonderful job with our boy! She managed his finicky eating and administered his ear medication like it was no problem at all. She sent daily pictures and updates in the app. We felt very good about our dogs stay. Thank you Eve!”
“Michelle was great! From her communication and photos I could see my dogs felt right at home. She lives close by so drop off and pick up a breeze. Hope to bring my pups back soon. Thank you Michelle.”
“Morgan and her family are very welcoming and Nala had lots of fun with all of her kids. Morgan did a great job keeping me up to date of Nala and sending me pictures and videos. Nala had lots of fun. Thank you Morgan as a first time user of this app, you increase my confidence.”
“You won't find a better pet sitter than Linda and her husband Brian. They are devoted to their sweet girl Carmi, who plays so well with any dog they bring into their home. I have no worries when I leave Hank, other than she will be booked the next time I need her. 😍♥️”
“Nancy made our little one feel right at home. Her place is quiet and cozy. Since she only sits one dog at a time, we knew our anxious doggo would be perfectly happy staying with her. She sent us pictures and videos of Koah as well which made us feel comfortable leaving him for the long weekend. We will definitely work with Nancy again!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with three cats of my own, and I’ve created a comfortable space on my 5-acre property specifically with pet sitting and boarding in mind. Your pet will have plenty of space, attention, playtime, and a cozy home-away-from-home while you’re away. I love getting to know each animal’s individual personality and routine, whether they’re energetic and playful or happiest relaxing and getting lots of attention. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can see how your pet is doing throughout their stay! I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, so your pet will get plenty of attention throughout their stay. I’m available throughout the week for boarding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home. I’ve set up a separate guest house specifically to provide pets with a comfortable, peaceful home away from home. My property has plenty of outdoor space for supervised walks, playtime, and exploring, while the guest house gives pets their own cozy space to relax indoors. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs, and I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay.
“Hope and her husband are awesome! You can tell they are dog lovers! I first took Samba for a meet and greet and her puppies are sweet and well behaved. During Samba’s stay, Hope sent many pictures and kept me updated. I am sure Samba had a great time! Thank you Hope! I will definitely book again!”
“She took great care of our dogs while we were away and good communication! They had a great time and were so tired after coming home from playing so Much :)”
“Awesome experience for Bentley and us! Frances texted us daily and sent us pictures of our little dog. Her home was warm and inviting and she had a huge, fenced in backyard for Bentley to play in. We will most definitely use her in the future!”
“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”
“Very nice people. They took great care of my fur baby and kept me posted with text messages and pictures while they watched him over a three day period. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Trixie is deaf and we don’t like to leave her alone for long periods of time, so we hired Stephanie and Elizabeth to care for her while we went away for the day. Trixie received excellent care. Both women greeted us in the parking lot, and asked extensive questions regarding her care. They sent some photos and updates during her stay. We were very impressed and will definitely hire them again.”
“Ducky had such a great time while we were away. She was able to accommodate us last minute. I felt super confident with her care. Was worried he would be sad but he had an absolute blast. Would use her care again in future”
“Lori and her husband are incredible people. They took Hattie for an extended stay and treated her like family. What a gem in the community! Excellent communication and sent photos each day. I could tell that Hattie was well cared for and loved! I feel so lucky to have found Lori and we will definitely rebook in the future. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for opening up your home to our crazy GSP!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palmetto
We got lots of videos of our pets while we were gone. They seemed to have a nice time staying with Lisbeth. Our dog had other dogs to play with. Our cats enjoyed laying in the cat tree. We were happy not to be worried about them as we were gone about 10 days. Hopefully we can book her again sometime. ♡
Two thumbs up for Kym and Glenn! This was my first time using Rover. Kym responded to my reservation request right away. We made arrangements for everyone to meet and see their space prior to the drop off. Their dogs welcomed my dog Coco and Glenn showed me their space; a beautiful shaded, fenced in backyard and the run of the house. After the drop off, I received pictures and texts letting me know how Coco was doing. They made it easy and being away from Coco, stress free.
Janette and Allyson are wonderful hosts. Their home is warm and welcoming, Allyson was fantastic at sending us photos and updates. I highly recommend them, to take care of your fur babies. Ruby our golden doodle loved her stay, she was right at home immediately. I so glad we found these wonderful pet sitters to look after her while we are away.
As usual, Gabrielle is perfect for our Scout! She loves him, cares for him, and makes him a very happy hoy! Her communication is top notch with many updates throughout the day, written, pictures, and videos. This time, Scout was pining after her as we were driving away. A sign of a true bond! 🥰
I wish I would have found Charlie and Lisa sooner. I felt comfortable with them the first time we met and RD made himself right at home at the meet and greet. They were very attentive to him and his needs. Sending pictures and updates made me feel at ease because it was the first time I left him with strangers and I could tell he felt right at home. I will definitely use Charlie and Lisa again and I would not hesitate to recommend them highly to anyone who wants their fur baby in good hands and well taken care of. You will not be disappointed!!
Adelyn was nothing short of amazing! Had to book a sitter last minute for an emergency vacation and Adelyn was very understanding and accommodating throughout the stay. She went above and beyond and truly cared for him as if he was her own. Updated me with plenty of pics and videos, and at peace with my pet in a time of chaos. Thankful to have found her and have a sitter for the future that’ll provide excellent care!

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.
96% of sitters in Palmetto can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Palmetto 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 Palmetto.
<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 Palmetto 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.
