“Christopher was a greater sitter for my puppy Malcolm. This is my second time using him. He always gives great helpful updates and pictures. He is very reliable with following routines and keeping Malcolm safe during his stay. I will surely use Christopher’s services again. I recommend him to everyone.”
“Our experience was incredible, Ana took excellent care of our dog, she always sent photos and video of what she was doing, also fifi was a great company for Nico !! Recommended 100%”
“This was our Luna’s first time staying with Christelle and Arley for a day. Christelle kept us updated with photos/ comments. Hope we can call on them again to sit Luna and get some play time in with their dog as well! Thanks again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Qian "Elena" and Meiru provided for my dog, Tiger. From the moment I dropped him off, they kept me consistently updated throughout the day with messages and pictures that showed how well he was doing. It was clear from every photo that Tiger was relaxed, happy, and enjoying his stay. Their attention to detail and genuine affection for Tiger gave me complete peace of mind. They treated him like family, and it really showed. I truly appreciate the thoughtful communication and the loving environment they created for him. I highly recommend them. Thank you both for taking such great care of Tiger!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Very welcoming. Our Bear seemed relaxed and happy at drop-off/pick-up which let us know he was well treated and cared for. I really appreciate how accommodating Brian and his family are. We are definitely planning to make their home our regular boarding spot!”
“Cece was a 10/10 sitter! We felt so comfortable the whole time our puppy was in her care. She sent daily videos and pictures and was very quick to reply when I checked in. Our pup had so much fun playing with the other dogs. Cece is such a dog lover and it really shows in the way she runs her business. We will absolutely be using her again anytime we need a dog sitter. Thanks Cece!!”
“One of my dogs has multiple medications including insulin injections. I was really nervous to leave him at a sitter with all of his medical demands. Cindy was amazing and not only handled it all well but caught signs up my pup having low BG and took care of it. She sent me pictures daily and I felt very secure that both my guys were healthy and doing well!”
“Daniel and his family took such great care of my Hudson! He sent daily pictures of his activities and assured me that he was in great hands. He was so exhausted from his weekend staycation, that he went straight to sleep when we got home. Thank you again for taking him into your home and caring for him so well! Most definitely will be booking again, and again, and again!!”
“First time sitting with them and it went amazing! Bashful seemed to love it so much and it was supposed to just be a cheaper option than my normal sitter but i will most likely be doing the switch and using them from now on!!”
“Excellent care. Shirley was really good with Lola. She took videos and picture of Lola and send them to me every day. Lola enjoy the time with Shirley. Definitely Lola is coming back.🥰”
“Trevor was great with Penny. He came to pick her up and dropped her off to me which made my life quite a bit easier. I'll be reaching out to him again when I make plans that can't include my sweet girl,”
“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!”
“Walden had a great stay! I get nervous leaving him in new places, but it quickly became clear that he was having a great time and was well taken care of. I was updated every day with some great pictures and informative updates even though it was the thanksgiving holidays! Shelley and Chris were also very flexible. I had a scheduling mix up, and they graciously extended Walden’s stay another day with no issues. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay, and would definitely book again!”
“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!”
“Dzeni & Kathy are amazing! They are true dog lovers who are patient, kind & loving with my moody little chihuahua. I felt very confident leaving her in their care while i was on vacation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thonotosassa on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,144 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.
