“I wish I could give 10 stars! From the first time I messaged Susan, she was very friendly and willing to work with our schedules to do a meet and greet, and she agreed to care for both our pups (one senior and one with anxiety), while only meeting one of them during the meet and greet. During our boys’ weeklong stay with Susan, we got daily updates with pics, which gave us so much peace of mind because we knew our boys were getting so greatly cared for while we were away, and they got plenty of walks and attention, since Susan only takes one pup or family at a time. One of our pups ended up getting an upset stomach on the bed of the other pup, and Susan went above and beyond in dealing with this situation, even going as far as washing the bed so it was clean for us when we arrived to pick them up. It can be hard to leave your furry babies with someone you just met, but we got the most amazing and calm energy from Susan from the first time we met, even our anxious boy went up to her to get scratches (which has NOT happened before with anyone), and we just knew this was going to be someone who would really take care of both pups. 10000% recommended, and we will most definitely be rebooking for future travels! A million thanks, Ms. Susan!! ☺️”
“Venus took wonderful care of my puppy (JumO). I liked that my dog got along so nicely with her two dogs. I was concerned because my dog is a puppy and is overactive and a little unruly — those concerns were alleviated. I would recommend Venus as a sitter to anyone. She is professional, caring and very knowledgeable about dogs and cats. I will send my puppy to Venus when a sitter is next needed.”
“Kaitlyn did a wonderful job taking care of Scarlett (a 11 year old 80 lbs. Goldendoodle) for two weeks. She did a great job communicating and daily pictures. Scarlett wasn't sure she wanted to leave!! Thanks Kaitlyn!!”
“Coco was very happy to see us. And I believe that Sally did a great job watching, walking and taking care of Coco while we got away for a few days. Sally was great at sending us pictures and updates of Coco. I would not hesitate to have her watch him again!”
“Susan was wonderful to put two little pups! She accepted a last minute reservation over a holiday weekend and took great care of the dogs while away. She communicated every day and sent pictures. She was very warm and friendly from the start and her pup and cat treated our dogs well while in Susan’s care. We will definitely use her again!”
“Sydney did a fantastic job caring for my fur baby. We were out of the country for a long time and I received daily updates and pictures. It was such a relief having someone care for my baby as Sydney did. I would highly recommend her for your fur baby!”
“As always, Dian took such great care of our babies!! She really treats them like they are her own. Thank you Dian for making our lives easier and being such a dependable sitter!”
“We left our two dogs with Jane for a few days for boarding, and we had a wonderful experience. From the very beginning, everything felt easy and trustworthy. She kept us updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. When we picked them up, they were in great spirits and settled back home comfortably, which says a lot. We’re really grateful for the care and attention she gave them, and we would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring place for their pets!”
“My dog had so much fun with Abby and Alex!! They took notes at our meet and greet to make sure nothing was forgotten, sent great updates and pictures, and made sure Koda stuck to her normal routine with lots of walks. Koda was very comfortable with them and I will definitely be asking them to watch her again in then future!!”
“Jeweliet and Joe watched Luna over Christmas break and luna had the best time ever! They sent pictures and updates and made me feel very comfortable that Luna was taking care of and treated like family.”
“Highly recommend Jaime to watch your dog and/or visit your cat while away! I was fortunate enough to find Jaime for our most recent trip to watch our dog Kodi (13 Year Old Lab/Aussie Mix) and to visit our cat Louis (6 Year Old Bengal) during our trip. Jaime was very responsive, sent updates, and is a knowledgeable/aware sitter. Her home is great for pets as well. Kodi seemed to have a great time with her and we’ll look forward to having her stay again.”
“Cynthia is phenomenal! She is sweet, kind, and very caring. As a new pup mom, I was nervous. She allowed me to meet her before I booked, which set me at ease. She sent me photos and videos and updates during my pup’s stay. I would 100% recommend and use her again! Thank you, Cynthia! 🐶”
“Tiffany and her boys are great! Reece was well taken care of and came home happy as can be. She sent photos and updates while I was gone and got back to me in a timely manner any time I reached out. I will definitely be using Tiffany again in the future!”
“Cara is the best!! I had my dogs stay with her and her fiancé for 6 nights. She sent pictures and updates daily. My dogs were super comfortable with her and her dog, Lola. Cara has a large, fenced backyard which made my dogs the happiest! I will definitely book with Cara again.”
“Marc and Erandi were great! They were super communicative and treated our girl like their own. She had so much fun there and we definitely recommend them. Thank you so much for everything :)”

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!
I’m so appreciative of how communicative Ruthie was throughout our fur baby’s stay! From the initial meet-and-greet with her dog, Pete, I immediately felt comfortable and confident having Ruthie care for Luna. Our dogs got along so well, and it was reassuring knowing Luna was in such a welcoming and loving environment. Ruthie kept us updated throughout her stay, which made being away from her so much easier. I would absolutely recommend Ruthie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring to look after their fur baby. We would happily have Luna stay with her again!
This is the 2nd time I left my dog in Erandi’s care. He isn’t the easiest dog to care for and quite anxious but I’m beyond impressed with her care for him. He truly seemed to enjoy his time there! Would recommend her to anyone and will definitely try to use her again for services in the future!!
Jennifer and Austin are lovely people. Copper felt right at home with them and in their comfortable and perfect home. They are great communicators and provided sweet updates making me smile and feeling at ease while I was away. Copper was treated so well. Thank you! Very much appreciated!
I had a wonderful experience with my Rover sitter! They were reliable, caring, and attentive, and treated my pet like their own. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and I really appreciated the updates and photos—they gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was happy and well cared for. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end, and my pet seemed comfortable and relaxed when I returned. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take their responsibility seriously. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for their pets. I’ll definitely book with them again! 🐾❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Saint Petersburg on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 3,225 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Saint Petersburg. About 91% of Saint Petersburg 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.
