“Will and his wife took amazing care of my dog Gemma, she had two walks a day, they sent me tons of pictures and even took her to the dog bar for an event. They absolutely cared for her as if she was one of their own. I will be using them again soon! I highly recommend them. The communication and feedback was excellent and in a timely manner. ♥️”
“Liz and her husband took such great care of our senior labradors and made us feel at ease with daily updates while we were on an 11 day trip overseas. I cannot thank them enough for giving us the peace of mind of knowing our pups were in great hands.”
“Daniel was great, but I knew he was going to be the moment I met him. Genuine person with a great love for doggos if all sorts. Zaad (my dog) said he had a “gnarly time” and thinks Dan Is “super cool dude.” Thanks again!”
“Thanks for watching Zeek again. He loves you guys. He is almost as sad to leave your house as he is to leave mine. Haha. A lovely home away from home. I always love all of the photos. He also keeps staring at my coffee table like “why don’t we have a giant bean bag too, mom?! 🙂”
“Sydney is awesome and gave T-Roy regular walks... it was like he was at the spa with constant attention. She is a pleasure to deal with and very responsive with regular updates on how T-Roy was doing with pics. Definitely 5 star!”
“Alyssa was great! She kept me updated the whole time I was gone with pictures and messages. She was very accommodating and patient with my nervous and shy pup!”
“There weren't more stars or I would have rated Claire higher! She was very flexible and took great care of my special needs dog. Idgey had a wonderful time-I could tell by all the pictures we received while on vacation. We loved seeing her adventures and it put our family at ease. Thank you, Claire! I highly recommend!”
“Sandra was amazing. Super communicative and responsive. Her home was in a super cute and quiet neighborhood and was absolutely lovely as well. We will 100% be using her again and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Barney and Annie had their own little vacay during their stay with Leigh. She sent great pictures and updates daily and in each photo they looked so comfy and relaxed. I will absolutely send my pups to stay with Leigh again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to friends!”
“Nastasia was simply wonderful with our four legged family member! She was prompt to reply to messages and questions, and from the photos we received daily, she clearly treated our pooch like one of her own fury family members! We will definitely book with Nastasia again!!”
“Peggy took fantastic care of our mini schnauzer, Charlie! She sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay, which was so reassuring. Peggy has a beautiful home with a lovely, big fenced-in backyard—plenty of space for Charlie to explore and enjoy himself. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such a safe and caring environment. We would 100% recommend Peggy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful dog sitter!”
“Pam was amazing with Lola. She sent pictures every day and kept us informed. She took Lola for multiple walks each day. Lola also enjoyed playing with her dog Alfy! I would definitely use her again.”
“Beverly is a wonderful dog sitter! Our little Rosie was clearly right at home with her, right away. We could tell Rosie felt very comfortable with Beverly, as she has a way of making dogs feel safe and calm. We are truly grateful for Beverly's kind and gentle way of caring for little dogs like ours - she is someone you can absolutely trust to love your fur baby as her own! Thank you so much Beverly! :)”
“Linda is always so attentive and caring with our Coco. He’s old and takes tons of medicines and Linda takes her assignment very seriously. As a trained nurse, she brings all those skills and attentiveness and professionalism to caring for Coco. We love her. Thank you!”
“Amy was wonderful. She kept me updated on my pup during my vacation, which did alleviate stress from me being that this was my first time leaving him with anyone else. Thanks again. I’ll definitely be returning my pup to see you soon!”
“Molly was amazing with my 12-week old puppy! Sent tons of pic/video updates, administered meds including foam when he was itching. She had her sweet Olive girl + other pups during the stay - Molly actively supervised play, had separate feedings, and ensured there was no resource guarding which put my mind at such ease. Tribe will only to Molly’s from now on!!”
“phenomenal people and they truly care about Thugger (my puppy). I never worry when he is with them and trust them fully. very lucky to have them in my life and they are even better people on top of that.”

Thanks for watching Zeek again. He loves you guys. He is almost as sad to leave your house as he is to leave mine. Haha. A lovely home away from home. I always love all of the photos. He also keeps staring at my coffee table like “why don’t we have a giant bean bag too, mom?! 🙂
Jeweliet and her family were wonderful! The moment Mac and I walked into their clean and lovely home, I felt a peace and immediately knew that Mac would be well taken care of. He definitely was. Jeweliet’s communication was very efficient, along with her ability to give all his medications. She even catered to a last minute time change when I picked him up. I will definitely be using Jeweliet and her family in the future, and look forward to doing so!
Laurie is a one of a kind boarder/sitter❤️. There will never be another like her! She took care of Jersey like he was one of her own. I appreciate Laurie & her husband for loving Jersey. We are going to miss you so much since we are moving out of state. Godspeed 💜🐾
Peggy was wonderful! We felt completely comfortable leaving Penny with her, and we really appreciated that she sent us pictures every day. It was so nice getting those little updates while we were away and knowing Penny was happy and being well cared for. We would absolutely book with Peggy again!
Thank you Ruthie, Jerry and Pete for taking such great care of Touille and Petals!! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our girls were staying in a safe and comfortable home with loving people. Thank you for the daily updates and awesome pictures!! Best Rover experience we’ve ever had!
We are forever grateful for Tiffany and her family. They graciously accepted our dog into their home when our other reservation was unexpectedly dropped at the last minute. Angus felt at home when we brought him over and they treated him like their own while he was there. I was relieved of having to worry about him while we're out of town. They were a godsend. I couldn't recommend her enough. We were so, so lucky.
Savannah graciously watched after my two pups on short notice when a last minute work trip came up. I was a little nervous as they can be a bit rambunctious, but she was phenomenal with them. She provided daily updates with lots photos (and the cutest videos) which put my mind at ease. My pups had a blast and were so well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint Petersburg on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,176 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Petersburg. 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 Saint Petersburg 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 Saint Petersburg 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 Saint Petersburg 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 Saint Petersburg.
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 Saint Petersburg 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.
