“I had such a great experience boarding my two dogs with Haley! She was super responsive and took extra care with my reactive dog, which made me feel so much more at ease while I was away. I could tell she really cared and made sure both dogs were comfortable and happy. She was also flexible with drop off and pickup times, which I really appreciated. The dogs came home happy, I’d definitely book with her again!”

“Chris was amazing!!! I was nervous but he absolutely answered all my questions. Our meet and greet was warm And Nola took to him and Oreo. Chris sent me messages and picture everyday and an update on how Nola was doing.i will absolutely hire him again”

“This was our second time leaving Oscar with CeCe, and he had an awesome time again! I loved getting daily videos of him playing with his friends while we were away. Thank you, CeCe, for taking such wonderful care of Oscar and always going above and beyond. We appreciate you so much! ❤️”


“This is my first time using Rover, and Donna made the experience so easy. She took wonderful care of our small dog and eased my nerves by staying in touch with pictures and updates throughout her stay. She even cooked extra food when she ran out. A super sweet gesture. You can tell Donna has genuine love for dogs. My pup is content!”

“Brian and his family were everything I wished for in taking care of my Lady for 9 days. It was our first time away from each other. Brian sent pictures every day and I could see how happy Lady was. It was such a relief. We will travel more now that Lady has a “second” home. Thank you so much Brian!”

“They did a great job watching my dog Lucy! This was the first time I was leaving my dog with someone while I was away and they helped ease my mind so much. Elena provided me with daily updates with pictures and specific details about how she was. I will definitely be using this sitter again in the future!”

“Cindy was great with Yuki, Cindy also did a great job on communications. Our days was always busy but Cindy still send pictures and updates on Yuki. We will surely rebook Cindy next time! Thank you!”

“As always Estefany took excellent care of our Xena. She is truly one of the best sitters we have found here in Tampa or other places where we have lived. Very responsible and has a way with pets; truly a dog whisperer!!”

“Claudia and her family were amazing with Teddy! They treated him like their own, comforted him when thunder was scary, and gave him lots of outside play time and walks. Also communication was great. Highly recommend Claudia!”

“Amy did a tremendous job taking care of our fur baby! This is the second time we’ve worked with her and will continue to do so in the future. She was very attentive with our doggie and kept us up to date with pictures throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Amy to anyone that is very picky about who watches their dog.”


“I would definitely have Jariah watch Belle again! She was super flexible, kept me updated throughout the stay, and Belle seemed so relaxed and happy when I picked her up. You could tell she was well cared for and had a great time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful with Hank! She was so kind and patient and loving with him! She gave us daily updates with pictures and he always looked so happy! We would give 10 stars if we could. I would recommend everyone to entrust their furbabies to Laura!”

“Jorge did an amazing job taking care of my dog. He treated him like family and kept me updated with pictures and videos of my dogs time at his home. Will 100% be using him again in the future as a sitter for my precious boy.”
“Kristin and her loving family were a complete godsend for my two senior dogs and me! As a new Florida resident working from home, I faced the jarring predicament of leaving my fur babies behind for the first time—with my entire support system over 3,000 miles away. After a recent sitter horror story, I was anxious about finding someone trustworthy. Kristin’s exceptional communication, endless affection for my dogs, and frequent updates (FOMO!) put me at ease immediately. Her thoughtful care, attention to my dogs’ needs, and warm, cuddly family made it clear—they weren’t just being watched; they were being loved. Seeing them so happy truly filled me with gratitude. If you’re a fellow Tampa newcomer or simply hesitant about entrusting your pets to a new sitter, let Kristin’s own fur babies be the proof of her deep love and understanding of animals. Their easygoing, respectful, and welcoming demeanor reflects the care and compassion they receive daily. Thanks to Kristin, I was able to fully relax and be present while celebrating the birth of my nephew—something I never thought possible with my usual separation anxiety (haha!). I cannot recommend her enough!”

“This was Maggie’s second time staying with Shelley and Chris and it was great the second time around too! Shelley is great with communication and sending updates and photos. Maggie was taken great care of and had plenty of walks and cuddles and play time. I would highly recommend trusting your pet with Shelley and Chris!! I was able to relax all weekend knowing she was in good hands.”

“J’akeecia watched my dog while I was out of town and did an awesome job. Super easy to communicate with, sent me updates without me even asking. She was super reliable, and took great care of my pup. Pics walks, zero stress. Definitely recommend!”

“Lorena and family did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats; Nala and Simba. I know that the cats were shown a lot of love and they were well fed and cared for during our week away. Both cats were very content with their temporary home and it was obvious that they loved Lorena because they wanted to sleep on her bed to be near her! Thank you Lorena, we really appreciate you opening your home to our furry friends!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thonotosassa on Rover is $42.18 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 3,181 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Thonotosassa. 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.
96% of Thonotosassa 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 Thonotosassa 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 Thonotosassa 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 Thonotosassa.
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 Thonotosassa 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.
