“Magda & JD cared for our dog, Nyla, for 3 nights and 4 days. They sent us updates and pictures periodically and whenever we inquired.

We received updates via pictures of our boy playing, sleeping, getting belly rubs and having a fun time! We could tell tell Angie was the REAL DEAL and "dog" flowed through her veins. Safety was priority one, love and fun were a close second! We would recommend Angie to any dog lover, based on our three week experience we would repeat in a tail wag! Angie, we can't thank you enough for taking the anxiety out of our trip!! And Otis gives you one tail up, a big wet kiss and a healthy bark!!!!”

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old and have always had a love for animals. Growing up, I had both dogs and cats, and I've also had cats throughout my adult life. While I don't currently have any pets of my own, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and caring for them as if they were part of my family. I'm a stay-at-home mom to two wonderful children, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care to your pets. I also think it's important for my children to learn responsibility, kindness, and compassion toward animals, so I love giving them opportunities to safely interact with and help care for pets. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or simply companionship while you're away, I would be honored to care for your furry family members and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My days are already centered around creating a safe, active, and nurturing environment for my children, so adding a pet into our routine is seamless. We spend time outside playing, going for walks, and enjoying fresh air, and your pet would be welcome to join us for those activities if they enjoy them. Whether your pet loves exercise and playtime or prefers a quieter environment with companionship and cuddles, I can easily accommodate their needs. Because I'm home throughout the day, I can stay consistent with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and attention. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and part of the family while they're in my care, while also maintaining the routines they're used to at home. When caring for pets in my home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining as much of their normal routine as possible. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get exercise. My family also enjoys taking evening walks together, and if your pet enjoys walks, they are welcome to join us. Throughout the day, I make sure pets have access to fresh water, receive meals according to their regular feeding schedule, and get plenty of opportunities for bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and affection. I understand that every pet is different, so I do my best to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, exercise, and any special needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I will make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they deserve while they're in my home.
“I am so grateful for Stephen! For opening up his home & taking such good care of Kovu while I was away. It was my first time leaving my fur baby, I was nervous but Stephen made this process so smooth! Kovu was sooo happy being there, I don’t think he had time to even miss me. I received multiples photos throughout the day which made me smile each time. I will without a doubt be booking with Stephen again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Safety Harbor
Mia did an amazing job watching Marshall while I was away. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay, and anytime I had a question she responded quickly and was great at communicating. Marshall came home happy and well cared for, which gave me a lot of peace of mind during my trip. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Mia again.
We had a wonderful experience boarding our dog, Archie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. We received updates that gave us peace of mind, and when we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to have a place we can trust, and we won’t hesitate to let Archie stay here again.
We are so lucky to have found Faith! We have never left Chesney for a week, especially with someone she didn’t know, but she did great. Faith and her family gave Chesney so much love and attention. Faith provided me with daily updates and photos and I could tell Chesney was well taken care of. When I picked up Chesney I could tell she was very comfortable being there. Faith will be our forever sitter as long as she will have Chesney. Thank you Faith and family for being so caring and attentive!!!
I felt so comfortable having her stay with my dog, Nacho, for the weekend. He was so happy when I got back home after Victoria had been with him the whole weekend. She showed him a lot of love, played with him and had great communication with me the whole time. Thank you so much for everything!!
I was visiting from out of town and needed a dog sitter, which is incredibly nerve wracking! Tuany put me at ease - she’s a pro with a set approach in meeting and greeting us, sending photos, etc. She cared for Dixie like she was her own which is very much appreciated!
Marie was wonderful with our dog Mylo, she understood that he recently had an injury and needed pain meds multiple times a day. Her and her dog were so great with him as an older dog than hers. Our dog didn't want to leave when we went to pick him up! Thank you Marie!
Ashton was great with watching my dog Teddy, and even made herself available last minute during the busy Holiday season! My dog loved playing with her pup Homer, and she even did a Santa photo shoot with him, which I was obsessed with! Would definitely recommend ☺️

FAQs for Boarding - Safety Harbor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Safety Harbor on Rover is $35.52 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 3,243 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Safety Harbor. 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 Safety Harbor 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 Safety Harbor 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 Safety Harbor 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 Safety Harbor.
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 Safety Harbor 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.
