“Jorge and Osvaldo were amazing with my dog Shea! They sent a ton of pictures and I could tell how much fun she was having. Amazing all around experience - thank you!”
“I 😘 the family that took care of my Canine companion. They noticed that Scout had itchy ear and notified me and he's been doing great.i would 100% use them again. You will not be regretful in choosing them to care for your furry child/ren.”
“Angel and Scott are fantastic pet sitters! This was our first stay for our mini Aussie “Murphy”. He had such a great time on his vacation with them that he didn’t want to leave! They sent us multiple pictures and texts throughout his stay and he got to play all day with their two “doods”. Their house is clean and welcoming! Their backyard is completely secure so the dogs can run freely. We will definitely be booking many stays with Angel and Scott!”
“Gail was absolutely wonderful with my dog! I am in town for a few weeks and had an unexpected work trip last minute. Gail kept in touch and sent plenty of pictures of my pup. I’d absolutely rebook with her again in the future!”
“I had a wonderful experience with this sitter. They were able to take my fur-baby on short notice, and their home was spotless, welcoming, and conveniently located. The fenced yard was the perfect size, and they were very flexible with both drop‑off and pick‑up times. The adorable scarves they made were such a thoughtful touch.”
“Adrienne and Nick were over the top fantastic sitters for The Doods, Toby + Dexter. They kept them entertained, playing all their favorite games and making sure Dexter didn’t eat any grass. The couch cuddles and TV time was exactly what they were used to and made them feel comfortable. Adrienne knew they liked to dress up and surprised us by creating custom bandannas for them both. All the funny messages and pictures reassured us that they were well taken care of while we were gone. The Doods are already looking forward to their next stay with them.”
“So happy and grateful we found Bonnie and Ron on here. Our Salem was SO well cared for during our time away. They provided updates and took care of her as her own. They provided much love and attention. Salem enjoyed going for walks, played fetch, and we could not have asked for more. They are just kind people, I highly recommend them!”
“Jayce has severe allergies and I am always afraid to leave him somewhere new but Patricia took amazing care of him and I returned to a happy, healthy dog. Highly recommend!”
“Kristine cared for our fur baby like he was her very own. Augie adjusted very easily to Kristine as she is quite the dog mom. He enjoyed walks, playing with another pup, and being well taken care of while we were away. We didn't have any concerns leaving Augie with Kristine and we would be happy to reserve with her again.”
“Our very first time with Becky & I think she’s our new dog sitter . She was wonderful & accommodating. Our lab was very comfortable at her house & she was well taken care of. We got updates & pictures every day Thank you Becky 🩷”
“Jacqueline & Austin were outstanding. We were very comfortable leaving our Jack Russel Terrior (Chloe) with them for a couple of days. They sent us pictures during her stay to reassure us that Chloe had settled in well. You can tell dog lovers and they definitely are. We will keep them in mind for our next time we are in need for boarding.”
“She's amazing... My dog love her since see her for the very first. She really knows how to treat them and pamper them. My dog met other dogs and been playing safe in her backyard, like she been in a dog camp. She can't wait until next time to stay with her. Thanks Mrs. Lora...”
“Great sitters! Very flexible and accommodating. They took great care of our boy while we cruised. Loved all the pictures and updates they would send throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“Felicia and Greg are absolutely top notch sitters. I knew from the meet and greet that my female boxer Daisy would be in great hands and have a blast while being cared for over the week and a half. It is evident that Felicia and Greg gave a lot of attention and love to Daisy in my absence. They have a beautiful piece of land for the doggos to get plenty of exercise and the pictures on a regular basis made me so happy because I could see that Daisy was comfortable and happy in a typically stressful time for her (moving and being away from us). Very prompt responses, professional, and I will certainly be reaching out for any future sitting needs for Daisy.”
“Olivia kept our pup happy and calmed/relieved his anxiety of us being away! She was communicative and flexible as our timing shifted. It’s nice to know that she shares a fondness for our dog even with his messy drool and quirky personality!”
“Joanne was the Best pet sitter ever. She treated my little Chiuauaha Layla with such kindness. My Layla is super shy at first.....it takes a while for her to warm up to people and other animals. Joanne was so patient with her and when I picked her up at the end of her stay at Joannes house .. she seemed to be relaxed and acted like part of the family and having a super fun time. Joanne sent lots of cute pictures to show us that she was fine and having fun. It made me feel at eases. We will definitely ask her to sit for us again. Im Forever grateful to have found her ❤”
“Mark was great with our dog. He made Bentley feel right at home. Mark was great with communication and flexible with timing of drop off and pick up. Will definitely use him again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Melbourne
Julia was great. We are Rover newbies and Julia was very helpful. Good communication while our dog Felix stayed with her and she provided frequent updates and pictures. Felix had such a good time he slept the day he came home :-) Will recommend Julia to anybody looking for somebody to look after their dog.
Digna and Joseph provided updates and were helpful to our anxious 9 year old that fears thunderstorms and a variety of sounds. Her anxiety is expressed by barking and running around. They were patient and understanding. Love that they are home with my aging pup. Digna is very expedient in her communication. Would definitely recommend!
Christine was amazing! So attentive to my two fur babies who have never had a dog sitter before. She sent so many adorable updates and made sure they were entertained and loved throughout their entire stay. Poppy absolutely loves the toy she got to bring home with her. Would 100% recommend to anyone that works from home and has fur babies that require a little extra TLC.
Brittani is great! She really cares about the well being of your pet and she shares pictures and communicates professionally throughout the entire time. Overall positive experience and I felt more than comfortable leaving my dog with her. Would highly recommend, especially if you want someone who cares!
Brian did a great job with our puppy, Jax. We were worried about leaving Jax since he is so young (13 weeks), but Brian made the drop-off, stay, and pickup easy. He communicated and sent updates and pictures daily. We were traveling from out-of-state, so finding someone reliable and willing to deal with a young puppy made our vacation less stressful! I recommend Brian to everyone looking for an overnight sitter for their pet. Jax stayed with Brian for 6 nights. No issues!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tiffany’s stay this weekend! While I was away on a quick vacation getaway, I had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and caring hands. From the moment I dropped Tiffany off until the moment I picked her up, she was treated like part of the family. The level of care, affection, and attention they gave her was truly exceptional. I especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and videos they sent throughout her stay. Seeing how happy, comfortable, and well cared for Tiffany was made my vacation so much more enjoyable and stress-free. The entire family was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely loving toward her. It was clear that Tiffany was not just being watched—she was being cared for as if she were their own dog. I am beyond grateful for the wonderful experience and the peace of mind they provided. Tiffany came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. Moving forward, I will absolutely be booking all of Tiffany’s stays with them. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and exceptional pet sitters!
Charline did an amazing job caring for Molly! She followed all of our instructions carefully and truly has a genuine love for dogs. This was our first time boarding Molly with them, and Charline, her husband, and their sweet pup Gosling all made her feel so loved and cared for. We received lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Molly was getting excellent care and attention the entire time. She came back home happy, loved, and very well taken care of.Will definitely be boarding Molly again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Melbourne on Rover is $38.85 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 488 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Melbourne. 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 West Melbourne 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 West Melbourne 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 West Melbourne 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 West Melbourne.
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 West Melbourne 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.
