“We love Celea! My French Bulldog, Winston has stayed with her several times and he really enjoys being there! I trust her so much- we even went on a 7 day cruise with zero worries because I knew my fur baby was in good hands. She is an animal lover with a big heart and a lot of patience. So grateful we found her and she lives so close to us. Excellent communication and she always sends pictures and videos 💜 🐾”
“My pup was so happy after her stay w Teresa! After just one meet and greet, when I pulled in the driveway, my 4yr old started her happy dance and song! Teresa is kind, gentle, and loves her guests. I will def return. Thank you Teresa!”
“Summit took perfect care of my Dalmatian. She was extremely happy when I picked her up, and I could tell she had the best time of her life! Thanks again Summit.”
“Viviana and her husband were great with our little Milo; I wasn't sure that he wanted to leave when we picked him up. Viviana sent pictures and was very communicative during Milo's stay. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will leave Milo with her again if the opportunity arises.”
“My dog is a Sr and takes meds and Karen was attentive to her pill schedule. I had written detailed instructions for my pups daily schedule and Karen understood because she had a dog a long time ago that took similar meds . She sent pix and texts. My dog was happy in Karen home when I returned . Big thanks !”
“Jerry did a great job with our Bailey girl. She’s just a pup that isn’t quite housebroken. She has alot of energy and him and his wife welcomed her into their home. They are very kind and sent messages and pics. She seemed happy when we picked her up,”
“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!!!!”
“I’m so grateful to have found her! She watched our dog while my daughter was undergoing a biopsy, and I can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind she gave us during such a stressful time. She did an excellent job—our dog felt comfortable, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed her company. It’s not always easy for our pup to warm up to someone new, but she took to her right away. We will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a loving and reliable pet sitter.”
“Elaine was great! Her place and clean and comfy perfect for the pups! She sent great photos and updates daily. Our pups loved playing with her daughter as well! Would definitely book again!”
“Pablo (and Javier) were the greatest care-givers our beagles could ever ask for! They were so easy and pleasant to communicate with, sent lots of happy updates of our pups while we were away, and they made sure our old doggies got all their medicines and treatment they needed. They also bathed our dogs and they were so happy with Pablo and Javier when we picked them up— even though they normally are terrified of strangers! LOOK NO FURTHER - this is who you want to entrust your sacred doggies with! 10/10!”
“Maggie was taken care of really well. She was played with and loved. I really love the pictures that were sent, and they really ease my anxiety for leaving Maggie May. Only the second time in her five years of living. I would highly recommend any one to use Meltem, as I plan to in the future.”
“Lori and her family are wonderful. She took great care of our little girl. She was constantly in touch, sending pictures and texts. If given the chance I'm sure our dog would prefer to stay with them, there were great. Lori is flexible and accommodating. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Tia was amazing. She took great care of our fur babies. We are travel nurses and we take our dogs everywhere. Unfortunately, they were unable to come with us this time. Tia was able to manage and give lots of love to our Pomeranian that has very bad separation anxiety. Tia sent us updates, pictures and videos everyday. We are so happy with her. If we are ever back in Omaha I will totally and with all the trust in the world leave my fur babies with her again. We 100% recommend her and I’ll be sure to recommend her to all our travel nurse friends.”

There are 763 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Sanibel. About 94% of Sanibel 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.
