“Jessica was great with my high energy 11 mo lab for a 5 night stay. Our pup has had issues drinking and peeing with other sitters, but not with Jessica! Came home happy and healthy. Quick and easy pick up and drop off, very responsive and flexible.”

“Gaby is amazing! She made sure my pup was comfortable, happy, cared for and loved on. He can be anxious or shy but she knew exactly how to get him out of his shell. She sends updates with pictures and videos and takes her job seriously, treating my pup like family. Rest assure when you book with Gaby your fur baby will be loved and taken excellent care of. I think my pup misses her and her family already!”

“My 2 little ones stayed with Julie and Brian and they were great! Lots of pictures and they were very welcoming and responsive. I will definitely reach out to them again.”


“This was our first time using Rover and first time having a sitter watch our dog. We were extremely happy with Donna. Our little guy enjoyed his stay and we were glad to have daily pictures and updates. We would definitely use Donna again and highly recommend her services.”

“Robert & Christopher were very accommodating to our dog who is usually skittish. They kept us appraised and also sent pictures which clearly showed the dog in good nick. Robert & Christopher are very caring pet sitters and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them highly.”

“Catherine was so sweet! She was very prompt in responding to my questions and flexible when my return flight was delayed. My dog had a wonderful time with her and will be visiting again soon!”

“We were very happy with Linda looking after our elderly dog Jackson, he received so much love and excellent care while we were away and we received regular updates about his well being. I highly recommend Linda to look after your pet without worry.”

“We were very fortunate to have found Rosalva to watch our dogs and they had a wonderful time! She spoiled them like they were her own & sent pictures of them relaxing with her. We are so glad they behaved well & definitely recommend having your dogs stay with her.”
“I cannot recommend Lynn enough! She always goes above and beyond when caring for Celine and treats her as if she were her own. Celine is always happy, well-loved, and well taken care of when she’s with her. For this stay, Lynn watched my dog for the weekend of my wedding. On the day of my wedding, she went out of her way to bring my dog so that I could capture some photos with her before the ceremony. That thoughtful gesture meant the world to me and made an already special day even more memorable. Reliable, caring, and truly exceptional. Lynn is the best dog sitter I could ever ask for!”


“Oh my goodness. Abigail treated my dogs with so much love and care. She sent pictures of them throughout and she was incredibly punctual. My dogs are exhausted from the love in a good way. I cannot believe I boarded my dogs in a cold kennel paid for a glorified cage called a "suite" when Abigail's home was an option. We're all very happy with her care.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. In addition to owning pets, I have pet sat for friends and family and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My family is very pet-friendly, and my children love interacting with pets through playtime and affection while I provide all care and supervision. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and homeschool my children, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Our family spends most of our time at home, providing pets with plenty of attention and supervision. While my children participate in sports activities on some evenings, pets are never left unattended for extended periods, and I plan my schedule to ensure they receive consistent care, exercise, and affection. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, potty breaks, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of playtime and affection. Because I work from home and homeschool my children, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family while ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for during their stay.
“Kym & Glen took such great care of my Frankie! They both have great personalities and communicated well with me during my dogs stay. I could hardly get Frankie to come back home with me he had so much fun!”

“I believe our Ozzy had the best vacation that we probably ever had. Carla was extremely caring with our dog. She picked him up, bought him his favourite dog food, frequently sent us videos of him and even brought him back to our place. She also has a beautiful yard where doggies can run around and play together. Our Ozzy was sooo happy :) Totally recommend and would board again!”

“Kendal and Dre are amazing! River loves to visit and has the very best time! It makes leaving her that much easier when we know she is so well cared for!”

The median cost per night for pet boarding in Ruskin is $45

Thank you so much for you and your family taking King in. He was always smiles and is so calm after picking him up. I really appreciate everything you and your family did and I hope you and the kids enjoyed the company. He is a really a huge lap dog 😂 thank you again for everything

Rachael was wonderful with our 3 kitties while we were away for an entire week. She kept in contact with us and sent us pictures of each of them to let us know they were o.k. I felt very comfortable with Rachael and her family watching over our kitties. We would definitely book with her again!

There are 3,454 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ruskin. About 92% of Ruskin sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.
