“Linda is quick to respond, easy to talk to, friendly and, most importantly, my dog was comfortable and at ease with her (and Larry). She updated with photos and I picked up a happy pup. Thank you!”
“Thank you to Ray and his son for watching our dog over Thanksgiving. We really appreciated the daily updates especially for our dog who can be very anxious. They even got her a couple new toys to play with.”
“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!”
“She was great with my dobie even taught her not to jump.She sent videos daily .I could see my dog had a great sitter and was happy.I will use her again gladly.She is wonderful.”
“Morgan was great to work with. The dogs were well taken care of and from pictures shared, I could tell they were very comfortable in her home. I was dealing with some weather related travel issues and I appreciated her communication and flexibility.”
“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”
“I am a first time Rover user and booked Kelly for our 11 year old hound mix, Bruno. She was a great communicator and kept me updated on how he was doing with texts and pictures. He did great and I am happy to use Kelly for our future trips.”
“Alyssa took great care of Hattie, and we would definitely use her again. Great communication and just a very sweet soul. Thank you so much for watching Hattie while we were away.”
“Our two frenchies enjoyed their stay with Jacqueline. Jacqueline has great communication and sent us several updates and pictures of our fur babies throughout our trip. She provided excellent care and love to the fur babies. So thankful to have a pet sitter that provided the same amount of attention they would receive at home.”
“Svetlana was absolutely amazing! She booked me last minute and was so accommodating and kind. She obviously has a love for animals and is a very responsible pet owner herself. Highly recommend her for anyone seeking a great pet sitter!”
“Floyd and his wife did an absolutely wonderful job caring for our Rosy. They provided daily updates and pictures which were so appreciated. Their home is clean and has a great fenced in yard. Rosy seemed so happy there and may have been happy to stay there forever ? Highly recommend!”
“We just moved to the area and first time using this service. Teri was exceptional and treated my Charlie with so much love - he is very attached to me and I was so worried and stressed - but that all changed the moment we got there and the whole time he was there. The communication- the ease with which Charlie responded to her and the love and care he received-”
“Erin and Steve are great pet hosts. They are intelligent, caring, and genuinely kind individuals. Their home is beautiful, clean, and pet safe. They took excellent care of our dog while we were away for a week. We will certainly request Erin and Steve to care for our dog again as needed in the future. I highly recommend Erin and Steve for daily or weekly boarding of your pets. Your pets will be in excellent care while visiting this family home.”
About: I have fostered and helped find homes for close to 50 dogs. I pride myself on understanding their needs. Experienced with puppies to seniors. I am also comfortable giving meds and shots. I have an elderly Aussie “ Matilda” and a young, playful Westie “Millie”. Both are terrific with other dogs. Your best friends will sleep with me if they like, or on a couch or dog bed or wherever they are used to sleeping in your home. If they are playful, I will play with and run them in my backyard. I strive to meet each dogs needs. A happy, stress free stay is my goal. I am a potter and my studio is in my home. Your dog will be with me and my girls, with access to the fenced backyard to play and enjoy themselves under supervision. I have a fenced backyard and your dogs will be supervised while in my care. If they like daily walks then they can have them!
“Jersey loved staying with Robin!! She took amazing care of him while we had a few days away! Let him sleep with her, took him for walks and spent some time gardening in her backyard! Robin has an inviting, warm, clean, beautiful home that any pup would love to visit! Great street views on a comfy ottoman are the added bonus for Jersey! She doesn’t take multiple clients at a time which was comforting for us—although Jersey loves playing with other pups, we don’t know that other pups love playing with him. Thank you for the assurance our baby would be safe and well taken care of while in your care!”
“Sharon was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Zelda! She was so accommodating and made sure Zelda felt right at home. All of the dogs she was caring for got along great with Zelda, which made us feel at ease while we were away. Zelda had such a fun and happy time, and it was clear she was well loved and cared for. Sharon also kept us updated with great communication throughout our vacation, which gave us peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”
“a much longer away from home than usual, 2 weeks. but Thelma came through again and kept Layla safe and HAPPY. great communication while we were on the road. highly recommend ....”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Venice
Pippa our 10 year old Papillon loves staying with Kathy and is very bonded with her after 9 years of occasional boarding. Kathy’s knowledge of pet health & confidence in dealing with any issue is reassuring and it is evident the moment you enter her home that all the pets love her.
We absolutely love Chellie and Theo watching our dog Rocko! She has a beautiful fenced in backyard, she only watches one dog at a time if you ask her, our dog absolutely loves her home and all the attention she gives him! We wouldn’t hesitate to pass her name on to someone else because she takes such great care of the dogs! We are grateful for this dog watcher!
Lisa is wonderful! Bosco can be a little finicky and ‘moody’— and certainly doesn’t like kennels. So we tried Rover and were blessed enough to find Lisa! Thank you again— and will likely check in with Lisa to make sure she’s available before even planning our next trip!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - South Venice
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in South Venice is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $58 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 757 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South Venice. 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 South Venice 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 South Venice home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 South Venice.
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 South Venice 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
