“We had an excellent experience boarding our senior diabetic Schnoodle, who requires special care and insulin injections twice daily. The care was exceptional. Jewell has a very kind and calm personality and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. We highly recommend Jewell for anyone looking for compassionate, attentive, and reliable care!”
“I have used Fran a number of times to take care of my cat. She is caring, responsible and I know Carlisle is well taken care of . She sends me daily updates with photos which is much appreciated. She is an excellent petsitter that I highly recommend.”
“My Kelly received wonderful care from Leslie. Leslie was just fabulous sending me updates and photos twice a day. Kelly got exercise, play time with new friends and had a wonderful time there. Also, Leslie was very conscientious about returning all of her toys, bedding, extra food, etc. It was a wonderful experienced and I can't recommend her enough. We will be back very soon.”
About: I'm a lifelong pet lover with 20+ years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I spent 18 years as a cat owner and currently share my home with Willy, my 5-year-old English Bulldog, and Lilly Grace, my 3-year-old French Bulldog. I work remotely from my home in Sarasota's Gulf Gate East neighborhood, allowing me to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love. I'll treat your pets like family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. 🐾 Around here, the dogs have me on a pretty reliable schedule! Since I work from home, my days naturally include potty breaks, walks, playtime, treats (when approved!), and belly rubs. Your pet will have company throughout the day and won't be left alone wondering when their humans are coming back. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful. That's why my goal is simple: make your pet feel safe, loved, and spoiled in all the right ways. With over 20 years of pet-parent experience, I'll keep routines consistent, provide plenty of attention, and send updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
“Nick was an amazing host to scout for 10 days. This was my first time boarding a dog so I was not sure what to expect, but Nick went above and beyond to keep me at ease while I was out of the country by sending multiple photo/video updates every day and notes about scouts behavior and integration with the other animals.”
“Jackie was so kind and caring to our 10 mos old puppy when he ended up having a 24 hour bout of vomiting and diarrhea while in her care. She kept me updated on his progress , and later sent photos of him playing and relaxing. I highly recommend Jackie!”
“Luna is very shy, he had no issues meeting before hand to make sure they got along. Luna warmed up so fast and had no issues over her stay. I can not thank him enough!”
“Debbie was wonderful. She took good care of my toy poodle and she was very communicative and always kept me up to date during my dogs stay. I would highly recommend as she will give you the best service”
“Pamela is the best sitter we could ask for. Every time we go on vacation, Nico gets one too. He’s always so relaxed and happy being with Pamela and her family , you can tell he’s genuinely loved and cared for, not just watched. We never worry when he’s with her, which as dog parents is honestly the biggest gift. Can’t recommend her highly enough. Nico (and we!) are always so excited for his next stay with her.”
“Can’t say enough positive things about our first experience with Amelia! Very accommodating—she even kept him an extra night when I miscalculated our booking! Sent lots of photos and we could see our pup was comfortable with her and her dog. Will be using her again every chance we get!”
“Sam was everything I was hoping for my fur baby! She treated her like her own. They had backyard adventures and lots of walks, cuddles and all kinds of fun times with Gus and the kitty. I felt confident that Fern was being taken care of and did not worry about her on my trip. Sam will be my go to if I have to leave town again!”
“Briana was excellent with our 2 sweet guys…..treated them With loving care, including daily meds, and topical treatment - communicated easily, sent pics, dogs came home happy, clean - Briana is now our favorite ‘go to’ for overnight care ….”
“Mylena is amazing! My dog Tessa has never been around children and let her know I was worried about that and she put me at ease the morning of drop off. This was my first time putting my animal in boarding before. Mylena texted me EVERY day with pics and updates. My heart broke leaving her for 2 weeks, but I knew she was in great hands. I will ALWAYS go back when I need a pet sitter. Thank youuuuu so much for making my girl feel right at home. Highly recommend!!!!!!!”
“Sarah and her family are the best at their job. I’ve never met more caring people who take the best care of our animals. They have gone way above and beyond and would never board my dog anywhere else.”
“This was our first time using Alicia and our 11 year old dog had previously been going to another lady for several years. His first night with Alicia he was a little sad and unsure but he acclimated quickly. Alicia was very responsive to us when we reached out and made him feel safe and secure.”
“Terrific care and love generatedfrom Tracy to Millie. Plays ball and takes walks with Millie on a daily basis. She asked for permission to take for car rides and trips, that Millie thoroughly enjoys, and I enthusiastically approved. She relieved the apprehension I had about leaving, enabling me to enjoy my vacation.”

Christyn and her girls took such great care of Hatch! They treated him like part of their family and he played so hard with her pup, Meli, that he slept for days when he got home. We knew Hatch was in good hands while we were away and I'm pretty sure he wants us to go away again soon so he can go back. Thanks, Christyn!
I want to write about how wonderful Leslie was with our dog and our family. This has been our first time leaving our dog with someone else. We were nervous because there were more dogs around, she made us feel very conformable and kept us well informed. She gave me so many tips about how to take care our dogs anxiety and myself around other dogs on a daily basis. Rocco stayed w her x 5 days, she sent us pictures everyday. We were able to have our vac stress free, I will definitely book her again in the future. Thank you Leslie
Tiffany was amazing with my two boys (both large labs)! It was my first time boarding my 1-year-old puppy, and I was a little worried about how he would be with someone new. He had the best time with Tiffany. My mind was at ease knowing both boys were being well cared for. Tiffany sent pictures and updates to let me know how they were doing, which was so comforting. Will definitely be looking to use Tiffany next time I come to town - she is the best!! Cannot say enough wonderful things :)
Nathalie is an excellent dog sitter. We boarded our puggle Marley for six days, and she was easy to communicate with. She genuinely cares about her dogs and sends us daily photos of Marley. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again for a three-week period we have planned in the near future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Siesta Key is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,018 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Siesta Key. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Siesta Key can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Siesta Key home-away-from-home, 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 Siesta Key.
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 Siesta Key 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 , 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 .
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.
