“Donna and Michael were exceptional pet sitters for our dog, Arizona. Their home is very inviting and almost designed perfectly for dogs. We truly felt Arizona was in a very safe place and with other dogs that were all gracious hosts and welcomed Arizona without it being overwhelming. We highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.”

“Highly reccomend. Melody makes sure my dog was having a great time while I was away, sending me updates and keeping me in the loop. My puppy is also high energy and requires more than most breeds to settle her down. Rest assured she is very proactive with that and allowed my pup to play around, use her sensory toys, ect., - really felt at peace she was over there”

I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my pet was happy, comfortable, and well loved throughout their stay. They were professional, reliable, kind, and attentive to every detail. I truly appreciated the extra care and genuine love they showed. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care Of Prince!”

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. ❤️🐾

Kriss updated me fairly often, giving me details regarding Liza's stay at her apartment. Kriss even sent photos and texts whenever requested and a couple of times, Kriss sent updates on her own. On the pictures, Liza always looked happy, groomed and clean. I will continue using Kriss’ services, and, based on my experience, recommend you continue placing pets under her care.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover. Currently a mom to my 14 year old Shih Tzu, Manny. We are an energetic, loving household who is excited to host your dog. I am comfortable with young dogs through senior dogs. I will be home all day with your dog and can guarantee many walks and trips to the bathroom along with lots of snuggles and playtime. I ask that your dog is completely potty trained and comfortable about kids (ages 10 & 7). I work from home full-time and able to support multiple walks, bathroom breaks, playtime & snuggles. I am available any day of the week, Monday - Sunday. I have a 14 year old Shih Tzu, Manny, who is mostly interested in sleeping all day. I have two children (ages 10 & 7) so your dog must be comfortable around kids. We do not have a fenced in backyard, however anytime I take your dog out it will be for a walk or on a leash with me in the backyard. I ask that your dog is completely potty trained (occasional accidents are okay and understood!) I will follow any current routines you have established with your dog and provide pictures and a summary of their activities for the day.

“I wish I could give 10 stars! From the first time I messaged Susan, she was very friendly and willing to work with our schedules to do a meet and greet, and she agreed to care for both our pups (one senior and one with anxiety), while only meeting one of them during the meet and greet. During our boys’ weeklong stay with Susan, we got daily updates with pics, which gave us so much peace of mind because we knew our boys were getting so greatly cared for while we were away, and they got plenty of walks and attention, since Susan only takes one pup or family at a time. One of our pups ended up getting an upset stomach on the bed of the other pup, and Susan went above and beyond in dealing with this situation, even going as far as washing the bed so it was clean for us when we arrived to pick them up. It can be hard to leave your furry babies with someone you just met, but we got the most amazing and calm energy from Susan from the first time we met, even our anxious boy went up to her to get scratches (which has NOT happened before with anyone), and we just knew this was going to be someone who would really take care of both pups. 10000% recommended, and we will most definitely be rebooking for future travels! A million thanks, Ms. Susan!! ☺️”

“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Her and her family took amazing care of my girls. She kept me updated daily and even sent me pictures of all the adventures they had. My dogs are my only family and finding someone to care for them in my absence is very stressful. Elisa took all the stress away and showed my girls all the love I would have. Would 1000% recommend to anyone that is looking for a loving home for their fur babies. Thank you Elisa! I will be booking again soon”

We did a pre-visit to see how our dog would be with Lexi, the dog was great with her. We received updates and pictures every day while our dog was with Lexi. Our dog looked great when we picked her up after our Cruise. I would highly recommend her as a sitter and companion and definitely use her again as needed.

Joanna was AMAZING with Chili. Our dog is very high energy and still in her naughty puppy phase, so i'm always weary of finding dog sitters who can handle her. Joanna was the best dog sitter we've had to date, sharing daily updates/photos/videos, taking her to the dog park daily, even offered to take her to the pool which is a TREAT for our dog. Not only that, but Joanna's dog Saint was the perfect companion for our dog, keeping her company and becoming a new doggie friend. We're looking forward to Chili's next stay with Joanna!

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED BOOKING WITH LISBETH Lisbeth deserves a ROSE for every star given. She took a last minute appointment for paraplegic dog. This is the 1st time she’s left my side since her accident at the Bradenton Humane Society veterinary clinic on April 7, 2026. Lisbeth is as warm as depicted on her profile. When meeting her I immediately hugged her and the vibe I got from calmed me immediately. She escorted me to her home. When entering, my jaws dropped. Her place was immaculate, and highly organized from the overview. What really impressed me was that she was keeping 4 other dogs and 3 cats, Lizbeth's place was like an indoor dog park oasis with cats. The cats and dogs got alone and Daisy, my baby seemed totally unscathed in that atmosphere. I can’t believe that I was not worried at all. She was giving all of the babies love including my Daisy and it was genuine, judging by the demeanor of the other pets. Lisbeth also works with disabled pets (superwoman). I had a wonderful trip until I began to feel guilty about NOT worrying. Ms Lisbeth, thank you, you made it impossible for me to worry and I bet you didn’t know that. I pray that you can continue this ministry. God has given you a special gift. I would not doubt if someone were to say,”you can actually talk to the animal. I am so grateful to have met you. I look forward to her next booking. Oh did I tell you that she sent photo updates as well. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED BOOKING WITH LISBETH. Neither will your baby:-)

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.

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.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Palmetto

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Palmetto is $30 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $39 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 2,666 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Palmetto. About 93% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
