“Left both of my dogs with Olga for a week while out of town. I'm always nervous to leave my dogs being that they're like family but Olga genuinely made me feel comfortable with leaving them from the start. She supplied tons of pictures, was incredibly kind and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my pets with Olga again.”
“I felt total confidence in Ana the minute I met her when we did the first "meet & greet". Her house is secure and doggie proofed. My dog loved being there, I can tell because of the photos she send a couple times a day, everyday. He seemed very content and relaxed. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a great, communicative, caring dog sitter.”
“Claudia was able to watch Bug last minute and sent plenty of pictures to make us feel comfortable after recently rescuing her! Claudia treated her as if she were her own and we are forever thankful!”
“Our German Shepherd loved his 10-day stay-- he was entertained by watching the neighboring farm animals and playing with their dog Moose. Kelsey took special care during a big thunderstorm, knowing he was particularly anxious. Very accommodating and flexible!”
“Mrs Diana took very good care of Kali. She made sure to send videos and pictures of Kali during her stay. Diana was super quick with responding regarding any questions. HIGH RECOMMEND!!!!”
“Aliyana was absolutely amazing with my boy Kenai super attentive towards him and he had friends there too with her animals. She also sends pictures and videos throughout the day so your always in the loop of things. She took him out to play and on multiple walks and treats. I know this says five stars but she deserves more 100/100 Ladies and Gentlemen your pets deserve someone amazing and she is all that and some. Thank you for taking such great care of my boy. This is now our go to pet sitter”
“Our dog & cat LOVED their stay of 5 days with Alain and his family! Really enjoyed getting updates and videos throughout their stay. They came home happy and relaxed, unlike our past experiences boarding at kennels in the past. Hoping to have them stay whenever we need to board them. Big thumbs up!!”

She bonded so well with them and we were so happy to receive pictures of Allie throughout the week! HIGHLY recommend Sandra!!! 😊”

“Shawna saved the day for us by being able to take our pup over Thanksgiving week. Great communication and very flexible for drop off/pickup times. Shawna sent lots of photos and videos often and sent updates. Our lab had lots of room to roam and was able to socialize with her dog. We felt our dog was very safe, well loved and taken care of throughout his stay. He was exhausted when we picked him up and super happy! Thanks so much, Shawna + family!!”
“SHERRY. IS. INCREDIBLE. As a first time user, I was a little concerned about the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday and needed a place for my pupper during dinner. Not only did Sherry go above and beyond to answer any questions and allay my concerns, she provided consistent, heartfelt updates regarding my dog and the stay. In the end, everything was perfect, from drop off to pickup, and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone on the fence for Rover overnights and/or dog sitting. Truly a delightful experience. Many thanks Sherry!”
“Our two frenchies enjoyed their stay with Jacqueline. Jacqueline has great communication and sent us several updates and pictures of our fur babies throughout our trip. She provided excellent care and love to the fur babies. So thankful to have a pet sitter that provided the same amount of attention they would receive at home.”

Bryanna was absolutely wonderful. She kept in touch with us all weekend and let us know how Clyde was doing and sent pictures etc. Her house was perfectly equipped for animals to enjoy themselves and have all the comforts of home. This was our first time leaving Clyde and I feel we picked the perfect person. I can’t say enough about Bryanna. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be leaving Clyde with her anytime we travel if she’s available.
I met Ellen here and inquired with her about watching my sweet girl, Maizy, in her home while we traveled. She responded immediately and we set up a time to meet. She was very easy for both Maizy and I to get along with and her home was clean and practical for her to be pet sitting. We officially booked, and upon dropping Maizy off, we met her husband and their pup, Salty. It was a very pleasant encounter. While away, Ellen kept in touch with updates and photos. After traveling, she and her husband confirmed that Maizy is sweet, well behaved, and was a joy to have around. I will be booking with Ellen again, and would absolutely recommend her as a sitter for your pup too. Thank you, Ellen!
We were so lucky to have Adani care for our girl while we were away. She sent pictures and a video along with feedback about how she was doing. She gave her attention, cuddled with her and let her try some of her dogs food toppers, which Verrin LOVED! She even taught her a new trick! You can tell that Adani loves dogs and has a wealth of knowledge to care for them. We will definitely be using Adani again if she is available when we need a sitter for our girl.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Punta Gorda on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 663 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Punta Gorda. About 92% of Punta Gorda 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.
