“We needed a new Sitter for our sassy girl but we are super picky! Krystal checked all of the boxes for us and Willow was right at home with her family. The home is clean and bright and the fenced yard is a plus for our frisbee-loving girl. Willow came home very happy and we will be 100% be booking again. Thank you so much!!”
“Awesome Family! Truly cared for our Nala and allowed her to have so much fun! Very personable and was very welcoming! Highly recommend her service! Nala definitely had so much fun and are so grateful!”
“Miss Luz was wonderful!! We were hoping to find a sitter with a fenced yard and other fur babies to play with. Luz was the perfect option. She has a good sized yard with a high fence for our active, medium-sized dog. At the time of our sitting, she was also watching other, friendly dogs that played well with ours. Luz sent numerous photos while we were gone, and we know that our pup had a great time. We will definitely book with Miss Luz again!”
“Diymond and Dante kept us updated on our boy by sending pictures and just update texts to ease our hearts. I’m a bit of a helicopter dog mom but with their check-ins I had no room to worry. Thank you both for loving on our Sunny and treating him as one of your own. And a special thank you to Rizz and Henny (their dogs) for sharing your space lol!”
“Did Ella enjoy their time with Brittanie? I'm glad you asked. Not only our first booking through Rover but the very first time we have left our precious Ella with family. Today it feels like Brittanie is family. She took wonderful care of Ella and was in constant communication with updates and photos. It made us very comfortable to know she was in great hands. We can highly recommend her for your pets to, just be warned, they will become family just as Ella has. She can't wait until her next visit.”
“I had just moved to Winter Haven and found Katie on Rover, read her reviews and hired her to keep my chihuahuas while I vacationed in Costa Rica. Katie was great, she communicated very well with me and sent me pics and videos. This meant a lot to me. She will always be my first choice when i need someone to look after my pups! ☺️🐾”
“Susan took excellent care of our standard poodle and sent us numerous pictures every day of him having a great time playing with the other dogs and just hanging out at her house. It was almost like he was on his own vacation! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is hoping to find a place to leave their pet where they can relax and not worry about their baby!”
“We could not thank Daniela enough for taking care of our Pepper for just a couple of days. We will be on a longer trip and have already booked with Daniela to board our Pepper. We find her to be responsive and responsible. We highly recommend her. 🙏🏼🙏🏼”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Polk City on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,737 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Polk City. 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.
97% of Polk City 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 Polk City 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 Polk City 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 Polk City.
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 Polk City 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.
