So thankful for David + Krysta. They are now our top choice when we need to leave our sweet girl behind. We were updated daily with photos and her daily events--such a breath of fresh air to be out of town and know our girl is being truly being taken care of. Poppy had a blast playing in their big backyard, making friends with their dogs, and getting all the love and playtime with their boys. Upon picking poppy up, the kids even had their friends in the neighborhood come and say bye to her because they had gotten to know her--there was something special about that! We are going out of town again in April and I'm on my way to book them again now. Poppy has found her home away from home family and we are ok with that.

I had planned to board my girl at her normal boarding place, but she had kennel cough so they couldn't take her. Kind of at the last minute, I got on Rover and found Andrew and Maria and it couldn't have been a better experience. I can tell she was well cared for, they sent pictures and videos, and she just had a good time. I was hesitant about sending her off with someone I don't know, but I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for someone to take care of your pets.

She was absolutely amazing. Even though she doesn’t have a yard, my puppy got plenty of walks and trips to the dog park. She responded quickly to all of my questions, which I really appreciated. I also forgot to pack a bowl, but she reassured me it was fine and took care of it. She even sent lots of photos and videos of my puppy, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he was excited to see me but also whining because he was leaving them—that really showed me he was treated like family. I would definitely book with her again.

Hi Eberyone, I had another really great experience with Rover and the dog sitter I chose. Barbara sent pictures and updates every single day. I didn't want to be the worry wart Mom but I guess I was. I was so relieved when I heard from her. The cool part is that the dogs met outside. Farley loved her two lttle friends right away. Never did the Mr Macho stuff he usually does around other dogs. I knew they would all get along great. I will recommend Barbara and Rover to everyone I know that boards their dogs. It was another fantastic experience. To top it off - he came home very relaxed. Which hasn't been the case at other times. Thanks again Barbara. Oh, and Rover.com for such a great experience.

This was my first time using the Rover app. We left our dog Charlie with Rachel and Cody for two weeks while we were out of town. Rachel and Cody sent us pictures and videos of Charlie everyday. They also sent us updates on how Charlie was adjusting. I would definitely recommend Rachel and Cody!! They will be the only people I use to watch Charlie! Thank you again!!

About: It's great to have a dog around!! From my first dog Cookie to boarding my Uncle's dog Fearless..well you just fall in love. Dogs force me to be the outdoor person I was meant to be..how can I say no to a walk?? I am super disciplined about feeding, watering, and any special needs. Can't wait to meet your furry friend... I am around most days and can be flexible depending on owners needs. I don''t require a lot of notice for walks, sitting, and or boarding. My home is dog ready..I have a fenced yard and a dog park close to me. Flexible accomodations..can have dogs run free in home..can crate if necessary. Fenced yard complete with turf grass. I live on a dead end street in a semi private neighborhood.

Naomi was great with taking care of my 8 year old Yorkie. I got frequent updates and pictures. She has her own dog park and yard that is big enough for pets to run around and have fun. I appreciated her having other dogs that would mesh with Ace to get him moving. Couple of things that I want to highlight the most are the preparation she has for multiple pets and situations along with the environment she can create to ensure any pet feels at home. 12/10 would recommend.

FAQs for Boarding - Shalimar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Shalimar 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 449 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Shalimar. About 91% of Shalimar 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.
