“Laquitta and James were simply great. They put you at ease from the moment you contact them! I know Rocky had a great time with them and I would not hesitate leaving my baby with them again! Thank you so much for all you attention.”
“Thank you for having our dog Finn. Julia was very nice and sent pictures and video. We love that our dog had other dogs to play with. She took very good care of our dog and we would highly recommend.”
“Had a wonderful experience with Diana. She took great care of my fur baby and provided pictures and videos throughout his stay which kept this overprotective fur mama at peace. I booked last minute and was truly grateful she was available.”
“We had to leave our two sweet boys, Bogey and Moose, over Christmas, and Gage & Annie made the whole thing feel like a cozy family vacation for them instead of just boarding. From the meet & greet to pickup, they were so thoughtful and easy to communicate with — quick responses, super flexible on timing, and always double-checking details like arrival times.They sent daily updates with adorable photos and videos: the boys playing fetch, getting belly rubs and snuggles at night, hanging out in their own spare room for quiet time, and even some special Christmas surprises like a stocking and new toys! They only take two dogs at a time so everyone gets tons of personal attention, and it really showed — my boys were happy, calm, and clearly spoiled with love and play.The updates kept me smiling the whole trip and made leaving them so much easier. When I picked them up, they were relaxed, excited to see me, and looked like they’d had the best time. If you want your pups to feel like part of the family while you’re away, Gage & Annie are the real deal. We’re already looking forward to booking them again! Highly recommend — thank you for making our Christmas trip worry-free and giving our boys such a special stay!”
“Razor loved his stay with Emily family. She sent me updates everyday with pictures. Razor looked soo happy and did not want to leave. Will definitely be booking Emily again the next time I go out of town.”
“Very responsive and accommodating with drop off and pick up. Sent me pictures and took very good, loving care of my dog for several days! Would definitely recommend and book again.”
“Vanessa is thoughtful, super sweet and knowledgeable with dogs. He takes care of Bobby like he was her own. I trust her every time we travel to care for him, without worrying about if he’s going to get taken care of correctly. Highly recommend 10/10”
“It was an absolute PLEASURE booking with Allen! I was able to visit ahead of time and was shown where my cats would be during their stay, and I truly appreciate that as someone who is a nervous Nelly! The catio was a fun change for my babies and one didn’t even want to come down when we showed up to pick them up! Allen sent me photos to show me how they were doing and kept me updated which I appreciate! It truly was an easy process and I never felt like my babies weren’t cared for! I would happily book again if needed!”
“Excellent! Manny & Jessica were so wonderful. They took care of our two small breed girls for an extended weekend trip we took. They were excellent communicators from day 1, and were thoughtful to send many pictures and sweet updates about of babies each day. This made for a wonderful trip because we were confident our pups were in good hands. Thank you again guys! Our girls already miss you!”
“Felix could not have been cared for any better. From day one I could tell that my pup had found a home away from home. They fussed over him and showered him with love, took him out on multiple walks a day and played with him. I know Felix is going to miss them.”
“Debra is amazing with my little old lady chihuahua. I don’t trust anyone else to keep her while I’m away. She loves her well, takes great care of her & she even takes her everywhere she goes! I only book Debra!! 🤩”
About: I have extensive experience caring for my pets, providing them with dedicated attention and love throughout their lives. My commitment to their happiness and health reflects my deep passion for animals and my understanding of their individual needs. We are College students. Kenya studies in the morning and works in the afternoon, and Emanuel only studies in the morning and has the whole day off; weekends are free for us. We don't go out much to events like parties; we stay at home a lot. Our place is healthy, good, and small. We live in a quiet area, and no matter what service you choose, we will always provide the same security and peace to all the pets that leave us in charge. In our house, we do not consume any alcohol or illegal substances by our own decision; we do not have noisy neighbors or people who do things like that.
“As any pet owner would I was nervous leaving my babies with someone. However I was at ease with Brianna C services. I received numerous photos during each day of my 2 pups stay. They were having a great time in all the photos and enjoying themselves. Before leaving my 2 dogs we did a meet and greet and Brianna was very nice and and answered all the questions me and my husband had. I would most definitely use her again.”
“Danielle is fantastic. Very friendly and trustworthy. We left our 10 year old Golden Retriever with her for a week and got daily updates and felt very assured knowing Danielle was taking care of her. She opens her home to your dog and makes it feel like home for them. We will definitely be using Danielle for our pet sitting needs from now on!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Citra is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $49 per night.

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.
95% of sitters in Citra 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 Citra home-away-from-home, 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 Citra.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Citra 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 , 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 .
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.
