“I am happy that I found Julia on Rover. We had a meet and greet before the actual drop off date. She provided updates, pictures and videos everyday during my trip. She also went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable due to her having anxiety around new people and places. I highly recommend Julia and I will be using her again in the near future :)”
“Robert is a fantastic sitter! We just booked him for the day this time to see how our dog Otto would react to being left at a stranger's house. He took to Robert right away and seemed to have a great time with him. And Robert's mid-day update, including several happy dog photos, was greatly appreciated. My husband and I won't hesitate to book him again.”
“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Madelyn is so sweet and her dog is super cute and friendly!! My pup was very well taken care of, and I got plenty of pics/updates throughout his stay! 10/10 recommend”

“A lovely family setting. Constant care and supervision…. My dog and their young child really hit it off, and it’s obvious he missed them when he came home. Couldn’t recommend more highly!”
“Our second time having our dog stay with them and they were great again! Always stayed in touch with us and sent us pictures. Also let us know if she was having any issues. Our dog always has a blast when she stays there. Would highly recommend booking them!”
“He was an amazing sitter for Diamond and truly went above and beyond! He made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. He kept me updated with pictures every day, was very communicative, and even made her little treats. He made me feel completely at ease knowing Diamond was in such great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking with him again if I ever need someone to watch Diamond. I highly recommend him!”
“Nilanie did a great job watching our dog, Lola, while we were out of town for a few days. She sent adorable photos everyday of our pup and provided consistent updates on how she was adjusting. Definitely recommend!”
“Franceska and Daniel are the very best! Apollo has a great time every time he goes over. He and Atlas have so much fun. We feel so safe having our boy in there care and he can’t wait to go back!!”
“Colette is our trusted caregiver for Lucca. Not only is she totally responsible and loving she is a frequent and fun communicator. We never worry when she has Lucca and Lucca never looks back when Colette takes the leash!”
About: I taken care of animals all my life. Fishes, guinea pigs,hamsters, bunnies, dogs, and cats! I even volunteered at an animal shelter for a summer and it was such a great experience!! I will treat your baby like it’s my own💕 Majority of my day ends around 3:30 due to classes but other times it ends before that in the afternoon. I am free on the weekends unless I am traveling out of town! I live in a first floor apartment in a gated community. All dogs are safe to walk around the complex as every dog is required to be leashed. I also have a lock to my room incase I do any animal sitting, so no randoms can come into my room nor apartment.
“Our first time using Anna and won't be our last. Our dog seemed to have enjoyed herself and was tuckered out when we picked her up. Anna was very communicative and responsive on our last minute arrangements.”
About: I have taken care of my own 2 cats for 14 years. I have experience with grooming, nail care, feeding, and litter box care. I have experience in care for cats rangeing from kittens to senior cats. I also have experience with dogs. Living with 3 in the past 15 years. Sizes ranging from medium to large breed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tallahassee
Anna and Nico her son were so sweet with our aging Norfolk Terrier, Fiona who is eccentric at best:) They sent many photos and kept us aware of her adjustment which was smooth. We would highly recommend the pair. You could feel their warmth and amusement. Fiona thrived.
Frankie, Dan and Atlas took such wonderful care of our dog, Triscuit. She had a blast playing with Atlas and enjoyed all the love that bestowed upon her during her stay. Frankie was very responsive if I had questions and gave me lots of updates and pics to assure me that Triscuit was settling in well. If we need a sitter again in the future, we will definitely come back for another visit. Thank you so much!
Another wonderful stay with Robert! Our dog Hershey was excited to see him, she always loves her stays. Plenty of walks, backyard play, and clearly lots of attention from Robert. And we love the daily updates and pictures. We know she's always well cared for, when staying with him. Thanks again!
Julia was absolutely amazing with Jackson! I honestly don’t believe I’ve seen my pup this happy with a sitter before her. She communicated very well, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and made being away from my pup easier without any anxiety of how he was doing. She is without question the best! I will definitely be booking her in the future, and I would recommend anyone else to do the same!! Your pup/fur baby is truly in safe and great hands with Julia!
Louisa was fantastic and very responsive when we had a last minute emergency need for a sitter. She always sent pictures of the dogs and provided a great peace of mind knowing she was out the house to both me and my fiancee. I will definitely have her back for any future plans!
I can’t thank Cambria enough for taking such amazing care of Sunny. Sunny is a Dachshund with special needs, he’s paraplegic due to a spinal condicion, and requires extra care, like diaper changes. Cambria handled everything with so much attention, patience, and care. She also kept me updated with daily photos and videos, just as we agreed, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s very clear that she truly loves animals. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust with my dog and would highly recommend her to anyone! 😊
Justin did a wonderful job boarding my lil lady Luna. He always asked the right questions and kept Luna active. Justin was even able to clip Luna’s nails, which is normally a fight with her. You can tell he has a sincere kindness when it comes to animals. Luna enjoyed her time with Justin. I will definitely book with Justin in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Tallahassee on Rover is $39.2 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 180 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tallahassee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
100% of Tallahassee sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Tallahassee landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tallahassee 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 Tallahassee.
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 Tallahassee 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.
