Lori was incredible! I was new to Rover, but decided to give it a try. After meeting her and her entire family, I felt very comfortable leaving our dog. While away, I got several pictures of our pup. Lori took him on long walks and he rested in one of many nice plush dog bed that she had. I could tell he was having a great time! Our pup was very well taken care of!! I would highly recommend Lori. Our family will continue to book whenever she is available moving forward!!

Jewell is a true jewel!! My nervous pup flourished with her and her sweet pups. My dog is a singlet and isn’t around dogs a lot !Jewell’s pups welcomed her into their home and became great friends with my pup. I appreciate the socialization she received while staying with Jewell. We will be using her again. She is amazing, her home setup is perfect. Jewell is fantastic for nervous dogs. Highly recommended!

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.

Great sitter! They've got kids and dogs at the house, and I think all that company made Cotti really comfortable — she settled right in. Easy to communicate with, no stress on our end. Would definitely book again.

Dr Hope and Scott are amazing dog loving people. I did not ask for walks because they have a great backyard and it is huge to let my dogs get the exercise they need for the 4 days. They are happy to be home but they enjoyed their time there. This won’t be the last time we will book with her.

I just got back from a short trip and picked up Nash from Joan. Couldn't be any more pleased with her and the attention to detail that she showed. It was the first time I had ever left him and he was completely content. I will definitely use Joan again and will be recommending her to all my friends.

About: Hi! I’m Allyson, dog mom to Woody and Birdie. 🐾 We absolutely love having dogs come stay and spend time with us in our home! My yard is fully fenced as safety is a priority for me. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I’m a lifelong dog lover and formerly worked as a veterinary assistant, giving me lots of hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Our home also has a pool, and I spend a good amount of time each day exercising my own dogs in it. If your dog already loves to swim, they’re welcome to enjoy some pool time too! And if you’d like me to help teach your dog how to swim safely, I’d be happy to work with them at their own pace. I was previously on Rover and am so happy to be back! I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident about who is caring for your dog, and I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have. I’d love to meet you and your pup soon! 🐶❤️ I'm Allyson, dog mom to Woody and Birdie. We absolutely love having dogs come stay and spend time with us in our home!

They will never be left outside unattended. Safety is extremely important to me, and I take it very seriously. In the unlikely event of a medical emergency, my veterinarian is conveniently located just ½ mile from my home and has a 24-hour emergency hospital attached to the practice, so your pup can receive immediate care if needed. Before your dog’s stay, please let me know if they have ever experienced any health concerns, medical conditions, allergies, injuries, or other issues that I should be aware of. Knowing their history helps me provide the safest and most comfortable care possible. ❤️🐾

About: I have a dog of my own who I treat like my child, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pup is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ We’re a dog-loving household—my parents live with me and absolutely love dogs too! My dad is home full-time, and I’m home most of the time, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My sweet dog is very friendly and loves making new friends, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for playtime and companionship. 🐾 With our fenced yard, plenty of walks, cuddles, playtime, and lots of love, my goal is to make your pup feel like part of our family while they’re here. I’m also happy to follow your pup’s usual routine and accommodate special requests whenever possible. Just let me know what helps your pup feel most comfortable! For everyone’s safety and comfort, I do require a meet & greet before accepting a boarding stay. This gives our dogs a chance to meet and helps make sure they’re comfortable together and a good match. I’ll also send plenty of photos and updates throughout their stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and getting lots of love. 🐶💕 Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine since I have a dog of my own. 🐾 I’m home most of the time, and my dad is home full-time, so there is usually someone around to give the dogs plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. Our days include regular walks, time outside in our fenced yard, feeding, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! Having another pup stay with us fits right into our routine—and my dog is always happy to have a new friend to share his day with. Safety is very important to me, which is why I require a meet & greet before boarding to make sure our dogs get along and everyone feels comfortable. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines or requests whenever possible—just let me know what your pup needs!

Olga boarded Zachary for three weeks while we were on vacation. During that time, Zachary was treated like a member of her loving family. Olga sent regular videos and pictures of Zachary playing tag with her dog, along with a cute picture of him with her cat. When we returned, Zachary was well fed, happy, and healthy. Olga did some training during his stay with her and gave him a bath and a comb-out. I have no hesitation in recommending Olga for training or boarding. She is excellent!

FAQs for Boarding - Palmetto

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Palmetto on Rover is $29.96 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 2,656 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Palmetto. About 92% of Palmetto sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
