“We used Betsy over the weekend and had a great experience! She was constantly updating me and sending photos! Drop off and pick up was very smooth! We are going to use her again for another upcoming trip!”
“This was our first time using Rover! We picked Jennifer because of her excellent prior reviews. Jennifer is the most kind and compassionate person we have met in some time. Her love for dogs was quite apparent from the time we met her and throughout our Golden Retriever Buddy’s stay. She sent photos daily to comfort us that our Buddy was enjoying the 5 days with her family. We will definitely use her in the future for our boarding needs. We highly recommend her!! 😁😁😁”
“Anne is awesome!! I don’t leave my pup with anyone but family, Anne has become my baby’s Aunt and family! She is attentive and worries ( like me) about my baby’s happiness! Took pictures and sent them to me to alleviate my fears…. I will always book with Anne!!!”
“Clary is an amazing sitter. She is very accommodating of time and very responsive via text/call. She kept us updated about Elsa at all times. Elsa also enjoyed the stay and we will definitely use the services again...”
“Jean was extremely pleasant and a fantastic dog sitter (along with her husband Bernie). I couldn't have been luckier to have found her to take care of my aging dog. We were out of the country for 3 weeks and Jean sent me pictures and updates every day. Our dog was very well taken care of and I would not hesitate to use her again.”
“We are just so happy that we chose Ashley to leave our Golden and our American Bully with during this trip. We were kept updated with lots of frequent pictures and notes and we felt like we were with our dogs even while traveling. They were so happy they loved her and we would definitely use her again!”
“Jennifer was very flexible in accepting a last minute request for our puppy Holly over the holidays. She kept us well informed through communication and pictures. Would definitely recommend her!!”
“Jenna K did a great job sitting my sweet Bella. This was our second stay with Jenna K . Bella was happy to arrive, I think she knew she had a friend to play with. Jenna K took Bella on walks and gave her a special frozen treat on Sunday. Thank you Jenna K”
“I say enough amazing things about Tracee and how she took care of my main squeeze Miles! Thank you so much for all of your hard work - so loving and caring. Thank you again Tracee!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“My pug Manny has separation anxiety but he was as cool as can be both when I dropped him off with Lorraine, and when I picked him up. Lorraine is experienced, insightful, and kind. She sent me photos of Manny so relaxed, he was sprawled out on his back on the sofa. I’m so happy to have found her and I know Manny is, too. Thank you, Lorraine!”
“Jessica and Colin watched our pup, Hazel, recently and did a great job! Hazel had a great time at their home with their adorable family. Jessica was quick to respond every time I texted , and was very flexible. We will definitely be using Jessica and Colin again if they are available. They are trustworthy, responsible and reliable . Hazel can’t wait to go back! 🐾”
“Richard and Carmen are amazing people! They loved on Luna and made her feel comfortable and right at home from the first night! They sent pictures regularly, and loved her like their own. We will definitely be using them again when we have the need, and refer our friends their way!”
“Sibrena was amazing with my dog who requires a lot of attention. She sent me pictures to keep me up to date with the happenings of her day. Thank you so much for caring for my dog!”
“Stephanie’s the best! My dog Oki is old and he hasn’t been with anyone else but me. He had a little bit of separation anxiety and Stephanie made him feel loved and cared for. She was patient with him and Oki finally felt safe in someone else’s care. We definitely would go back to her in a heartbeat.”
“Gina is everything you could ask for when entrusting someone to look after your furry friends. Very responsive during the booking process, we had a great meet and greet, as this was our first time using Gina, great family and setting, and lots of pictures, videos, and interaction during the stay. Would definitely book again!!”
“We were so happy we decided to leave Wes with Lindsay. We received updates & pictures showing Wes was making himself right at home. Thank you Lindsay for taking good care of him.”
“My dogs had a great time with Jaime. They were well taken care of and given lots of love. Jaime was very responsive and when we had a last minute issue and was so gracious to keep the dogs a little while longer than expected.”
“Larry & Renee kept my little girl, Emma, for the first time and they were great! When I picked her up after four days, she seemed happy to see me but wasn't anxious at all to leave their home. In fact, she followed Renee into the kitchen, I am sure in hopes of another treat, while she was gathering Emma's things for me. Larry was wonderful at keeping me informed of how Emma was doing by sending me emails and photos of my girl. I couldn't have been happier. In fact, we are using them again next week to take care of our Emma for another three days.”
“I can't express enough how grateful I am for Heather's incredible care of my two Havanese pups, Percy and Walter! From the moment I met her, I knew my fur babies were in good hands. Heather was not only warm and welcoming but also incredibly responsive, which put my mind at ease while I was away. She kept me updated with adorable photos and messages, showing just how much fun Percy and Walter were having. It was such a joy to see them playing and snuggling in her care! When I picked them up, it was clear they had a fantastic time. They were so happy and well-adjusted, which speaks volumes about Heather’s loving approach. Her attention to detail and genuine love for dogs made all the difference. I can't recommend Heather highly enough! If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, she's the one. Thank you, Heather, for giving Percy and Walter such a wonderful experience! 🐾❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tarpon Springs
We had such a wonderful experience with our sitter! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and attentive to our dog throughout his stay. She kept us updated regularly, sent us lots of photos, and made sure we always knew how he was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dog was well cared for and comfortable with her. We really appreciate how communicative and thoughtful she was, and we would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend! ❤️
Larry was wonderful to my little fuzzbox! Smooch has never been left with anyone but friends and family since we got him @ 9 weeks. He is almost 12 now. Larry has the perfect demeanor for this! I could tell during the meet and greet that we found our guy and he did not disappoint :) I would recommend Larry to anyone who is looking for a home away from home. My guy being an only child loved having friends for a week and definately needed to recharge when he got home but Larry was the perfect pick. TY Larry for pampering my boy and making him not so homesick............... We will return when needed.
Jennifer took amazing care of our dog Kodi! He is a bit needy and she was really understanding and accommodating of both his medications and his need to have a human present 24/7. We received tons of photos and updates and could tell he was extremely comfortable and happy. He will absolutely be a regular client!
Last minute getaway. So very happy with service my dog needed some time with another furry friend. Friendly. Had an emergency airport shut down. Contacted her immediately and she was able to continue care into the next day. Great place to take my dog again. Someone you can count on. Not just “boarding” atmosphere. Yes, my dog was happy to see me, yet was completely comfortable there.
Holi-Nicol and her family were wonderful! She was so accommodating and flexible, and we felt safe with her taking care of our pup. She responds very quickly and she even set up a meet and greet the next day. We would definitely recommend booking with her. Our pup is looking forward to her next stay!
Anne was great with our newly acquired 5-yr old shelter dog, Toby. We are still working on potty training and good behavior with him so he wasn't an easy guest. We're implementing some helpful suggestions Anne offered and anticipate that Toby will be a better guest the next time around!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Tarpon Springs on Rover is $42.8 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 2,790 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tarpon Springs. 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.
95% of Tarpon Springs 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 Tarpon Springs 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 Tarpon Springs 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 Tarpon Springs.
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 Tarpon Springs 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.
