“Krista is absolutely amazing. My dog have never taken so well with anyone. She's an Army brat as well, mear & dear to my heart.... be sure to check out her plants for sale too. Amazing house overall My dogs officially have "another woman" I was so entertained while I was gone, with the cute photos and updates. Super great lady. I hope she will always have openings for my boys. I'm not telling any friends about her, so she can be steady fun for my pups. Yes. She's THAT good, I think we'll keep her around. :"WE RUV THAT PRETTY LADY WITH TREATS & GLOW COLLARS," Blue and Shiloh "SHES A GREAT SNUGGLER AND EVEN RUBBED IT IN A BIT WHEN SHE MESSAGED MOM,"- Blue "I slept for 6 hours when I got home from Miss Kristas, And Mom had to wake me up for dinner,"- Shiloh the Treat Miser”

“Dennis was wonderful!! He sent several pictures of Misa to let me know how she was doing and I was able to enjoy our trip without worry. He was very accomadating with drop off/pick up making it a very smooth visit. It was a great stay!!”
“Isabella was awesome. She created an affectionate connection with Lola right away while we were still in her house introducing Lola to her. It was obvious to us that Lola was feeling very comfortable. Isabella kept us informed of how Lola was doing and would send pictures of her playing as well as the two of them walking during the day. There's no doubt that Isabella has a special gift for loving animals, and they seem to love her back. We were very happy and we'll for sure use her services next time we need it.”

“Very happy we chose Alex for Grimm’s vacation time! Grimm was with Alex for a week. He sent updates almost every day with photos. Grimm looked like he was having a blast! Will definitely go back to Alex next time we need a sitter! Thank you for treating Grimm like family!”
“Mimi was so great! She sent updates and gave us reassurance that our pup was adjusting well. She goes above and beyond to make dogs and their owners feel at ease. Thanks, Mimi!”

Brittney was wonderful with Cobie. She updated me 2 times a day and sent pictures regularly. She let me know how Cobies disposition was. I did not worry about Cobie during the 9 nights she was there since she was very transparent and honest with me. I highly recommend Brittney to take care of your fur babies
Sadie had a great evening with Dennis and Adriana. Dennis does everything possible to make sure Sadie feels safe and comfortable. Sadie enjoys interacting with the other dogs there. I feel fortunate to find someone that Sadie is comfortable with since she is an older dog and sometimes needs extra attention and reassurance.
The best dog sitting experience we ever had! Sheryl and James treated Kevin like he was their own! We received daily updates with pictures and videos. It was an absolute wonderful experience! Look no further! Thank you so much for your care and kindness! Kevin will be back soon!
Charli has been taking care of our dog Jack since 2019, and he always has the best time. She has always gone above and beyond, for example: taking him on walks, bringing him along on outings like trips to Renninger’s, and making sure he feels comfortable and loved while we’re away. Now that Jack is a 15 year old senior, it means even more to us to have someone we trust completely. Charli took exceptional care of him during our most recent mini-vacation, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares for him. We can tell Jack is happy and relaxed in her care, and she treats him like part of her own family. She even gives him a bath when on longer stays. We highly recommend Charli to anyone looking for care for their loved ones!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Tavares is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $53 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.

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.
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 Tavares 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 Tavares 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 Tavares.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tavares. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Tavares 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
