“Anne was such a random find for me. She was the first one I found and clicked on and didn’t even bother looking at others. She took care of my dog like she was her own. Thank you, Anne! 💜”
“Lindsay and her family have once again taken incredible care of our Jimi. Not often does a pet not want to leave their sitter but that’s the case every time Jimi stays with them which shows us how happy he is being there. Great communication, frequent updates with photos and they keep our boy happy. Thank you!”
“"We had a fantastic experience with Jeff and Janel and would absolutely book with them again! Since it was our first time leaving Rosco, we were naturally a bit nervous, but Jeff and Janel made the process so much easier. We started with a meet and greet to ensure it was a good fit, which really put our minds at ease. Throughout our trip, they kept us consistently informed with photos and videos of Rosco, which we loved seeing. They were also incredibly accommodating regarding Rosco’s specific dietary needs. They were proactive in asking for detailed instructions to ensure they followed his routine perfectly. It’s always difficult to leave your pup behind, but the constant updates and their friendly, attentive care made us feel completely comfortable. Highly recommended!"”
“Dzeni and Kathy are absolutely wonderful! They provided loving care to our boys as if they were their own! We received pictures and updates putting us at ease and letting us know our boys were having a great stay! I highly recommend!!!”
“1000% recommend Katie. From the first conversation, I knew my babies would be in good hands with her. We have a high energy dog.. this was no problem for Katie, she was patient and loving and knew exactly how to handle her. Between the consistent picture and updates I never worried or wondered if they were ok. Absolutely we will be using Katie again.”
“Our fur baby felt right at home with Stephanie! He was treated like a king and was happy and relaxed while away from home. The daily updates and pics gave us peace of mind. We've already booked our next stay!”
“My boy are 15 year and 13 years old and I know I can trust Laura and her son to look after them. To me this is most important. This is a very high compliment that I don't have to worry. Donna”
“We had a great experience leaving Lunna with Karelys. Lunna was very happy when we picked her up. Before leaving Lunna with Karelys we had to implement a strict diet for Lunna and Karelys helped us get Lunna on the diet with great results when we picked her up. We are confident next time we need the best loving care for Lunna, Karelys will do an outstanding job.”
“Kelli is our go to! She takes wonderful care of Grace. Knowing she’s in loving hands makes it so much easier to enjoy our time away, without the worry of her care. We have had Kelli sit for us several times and she will always be our go to sitter because Grace feels comfortable there and gets excited when we drive down their street!”
“Janet is amazing! Cannot begin to describe how happy I am to have found such a gem so close to me. I wasn’t happy with my previous sitter and was looking for more of an authentic dog lover and not just someone trying to run a business... Janet went above and beyond my expectations! My dogs were extremely happy with their stay with her and she sent me lots of pics and video updates during their 10 day stay with her. I love how she has a huge fenced backyard for them to run around in and she always has plenty of other dogs for mine to play with. 10++ in my book!! Thanks Janet! Ps. Doggies also came home a little better behaved aka less random barking lol”
“Jodi totally put me at ease so I could enjoy my vacation and not worry about Chase being taken care of properly. I could tell he was in good hands with all of the pictures she sent daily. She walked him, played with him and loved him while I was on vacation. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a loving home for their fur baby! Thank you Jodi for taking such good care of my baby!”
“This was Bentley's first time in an in home boarding and Jenna could not have been more friendly, professional and accommodating. She took such good care of our baby and I got to enjoy my daughter's wedding without any worry about my fur baby. Thank you so much Jenna !!!!!”
“Thank you Carlos and your family. Rusty had never stayed in a “stranger’s house before” nor with other dogs except mine. He did great and their family was wonderful. Highly recommend Carlos and fish family for peace of mind and the care they give!”
“George was truly the best Rover we have ever had for our dog Murphy! He took such great care of him and truly went above and beyond making sure Murphy was having the best time. George was great and I highly highly recommend!!!”
“Max was extremely happy to stay again with Katherine. He is so well taken care of and looked really happy in all the pictures she sent me. I am very happy i found a sitter close by and will use them again.”
“I felt instantly comfortable leaving Coco with Kathy and my instincts were correct. She took wonderful care of our teacup yorkie. She sent pictures and a video which made us feel very reassured that Coco was happy in his temporary home. Definitely plan to leave Coco again with Kathy when we travel.”
“Mai was absolutely incredible! I was worried about leaving my pup with a stranger and especially with another dog, as my dog can be a humper. One meet and greet with Mai and Fogi the puggle, and he was completely taken with them both, didn’t even bark when I dropped him off. I was out of cell phone coverage on a cruise but Mai still sent constant pictures and updates (over 8 days!) that I was able to see at my leisure and her communication any time I was able to text her was great. She even slept on a sofa with my dog the first nights he got adjusted to being somewhere new! When I got him home, it was clear Mai was a better choice than a kennel as he wasn’t smelly, overly tired or sickly. I will definitely be using her again. So glad to have found a sitter I can trust with my overly spoiled pup.”
“Jean and Al were very kind and took excellent care of our Goldendoodle while we were out of town. We loved getting the pics and updates as well to see how comfortable our dog was in our absence.”
“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!”

Chandler was great! very understanding. This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone. He sent videos and was very prompt to respond to my text messages. I felt very at ease. when I picked her up, She was sad to leave. I will definitely have Chandler on my speed Dial. And spread the word, what a great dog sitter he is. And how sad Mia is today and misses him and the other doggies..
Lulu had an amazing over night stay with Michelle and at such short notice too. Michelle was very accommodating to us. Lulu iisnt around other dogs at home but Michelle introduced her to her own dogs in such a safe and careful manner that Lulu actually ran around and played with her dogs and felt such at ease there. I would highly recommend Michelle and I will be booking with her again on the future.
This was my first time using a dog sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took such great care of Lehx, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. The drop-off and pick-up process was smooth, and I loved receiving pictures and videos—it really meant a lot. She also made sure to ask questions beforehand to understand his needs, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!
I could not have wished for a better sitter for my Labrador Retriever, Winnie! Robin is a wonderful and warm person who truly loved and spoiled Winnie during the three weeks she looked after her. Robin sent pictures and updates every day, which gave me great peace of mind. Her two dogs are happy and friendly, and Winnie got along beautifully with them. I would not hesitate to recommend Robin to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter.
Our family was going on a little vacation, and needed someone to care for our yorkie, Thomas, while we were gone. This is the first time we have had someone we don’t know care for him. Juan was amazing! He shared updates and pics with us and Thomas was extremely happy! We had to stay an extra night on our trip and Juan accommodated that and was able to care for Thomas an extra night. We will use Juan’s services again. Thank you Juan!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Port Richey on Rover is $33.3 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 2,737 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Richey. 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 Port Richey 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 Port Richey 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 Port Richey 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 Port Richey.
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 Port Richey 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.
