“Dana was absolutely an incredible dog sitter. Molly, my dog, cried as we pulled away in my car. Dana sent pics and updates frequently! Molly looked like she was so at home and I’ll def be bring her back :) 5 star experience on everything! Drop off and pickup also very easy. Outstanding communication!”

“Summit is awesome! Not only was he able to take our Matrix on short notice, he arranged a meet and greet prior to service. He is kind, listens, and is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of training, breeds, and making dogs and owners comfortable. Our dog had a blast and we didn’t have to worry. Will most definatly book again with Summit.”

“Destiny was great with our dog. Stayed in constant contact the whole 5days she had macho. Plenty of pics and updates would 10/10 recommend and will be using her again.”

“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 !”

“Meltem took great care of our fur baby. She sent daily pictures and responded quickly to any inquiries! Overall a great stay. We will absolutely book with her in the future!”

“Can't say enough good things about B! She took such good care of my two boys and I know for a fact they had a blast. When we picked them up they were very happy to see us but as soon as we got them in the car they passed out-a good sign that they had a fun filled week. I received lots of photos of my boys and that was so appreciated! B was very responsive as well, responding to all my texts/ calls in a timely manor. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again for future sittings. Thank you B!!!!”

“This is my Honeys second stay with Katelyn and she always has the BEST time. I know she is in such great care and I love all the pictures and updates. Can not recommend enough!”


“Jerry and Sharon took such good care of my 15 year old Yorkie/poo. Jerry sent pictures and updates daily. I booked a second stay and Teddy was eager to get into their house. That tells me that he was happy there. I also appreciate that Jerry only has one or two dogs at a time. I highly recommend him.”

“We can't thank Maria enough for her kindness and flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request for Pluto's care. From the moment we connected, she was beyond wonderful—thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated throughout the entire reservation with pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. Pluto was clearly happy and well cared for! On top of that, Maria has the most gentle giant of a dog, who made Pluto feel right at home. The experience was seamless, and we truly appreciate her warmth and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“She was amazing! Milo felt comfortable right away. She sent me pictures every day making time apart from Milo a lot more tolerable! Will definitely be booking again.”

“Cynthia and her family are amazing! Cynthia was in contact with me daily for updates and pictures. She made sure my dog was well taken care of and felt right at home. I highly recommend Cynthia for any and all future visits. She and her family will take care of your dog like they are their own and make you feel more than comfortable about leaving your pup for a few days!”

“Cesar was amazing with Hershey! From the moment we met, I could tell he genuinely cares about animals. He kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, and Hershey looked so happy and comfortable. It meant a lot knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Cesar and would absolutely trust him with Hershey again. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby! 🐾❤️”

“If you want your furry babies to be loved when you "have to" go on vacation... this is who you need to contact. Absolutely, the best. We had a quick meet and greet before our scheduled date and they were so accommodating. Both Callie and Maverick were so happy to be in their company. Already planning another vacation so our doggies can go to Laura and Evan's house.”

“Jill is awesome! She took such great care of our Sasha while we were away! She sent pictures and updates. Sasha had a great time.. I can tell that she was very comfortable at Jill's house.. We will definitely be using Jill again as our sitter. Thank you Jill for taking such great care of Sasha! ❤️ Barb”
“Thank you Destini for taking such great care of the pups! Your frequent pictures and updates let us know they were comfortable and well cared for. I would definitely book again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring person to watch their furry friends :-)”

“We were so happy leaving our dogs with Arleen and Daniel. We are planning a trip in October and we wanted to try an overnight for our kids first, to see how they would do. They kept us updated with pictures, made us feel totally at ease, and even though one of our little babies had some separation anxiety, they didn’t seem bothered by it at all. They understood it was their first time away from us since we had them. We are looking forward to using them in the future. They were the perfect match for our crazy teenagers.”

“Emily and Aaron are fantastic people! They really did treat my baby as if he was their own. The pictures I got everyday was just the cutest and you could see how truly happy he was. Their son is so adorable and so gentle with the dogs, he enjoyed playing with Sparky I would definitely recommend this family for dog boarding, I know we will absolutely use them again. Thanks again for loving my little fur baby!!!!”

There are 749 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Sanibel. About 92% 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.

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.
