“A dog loving family I have ever met. Once Jean picked up my dog, she was already on her belly looking for rubs. They sent photos and videos to me all along my dog was with them. I will use them ALL the time. Great animal lovers!”


“Laquitta and James were wonderful taking care of our Duncan. They kept us posted with frequent texts and pictures of our dog enjoying their company. We highly recommend their services.”

“Ashley did such an amazing job taking care of my boy! When we met up, she was willing to spend over an hour talking with me and getting to really know my pup and his needs. She and her family are very experienced with high-drive, high-energy, intelligent dogs and my pup had an AMAZING time. She also checked in every morning and sent pictures and videos. I will absolutely take my pup to her next time I need boarding!”

“I was very pleased with Minnie's care. I loved the adorable updates and pictures. Wonderful dog sitters and Minnie got to run around and play in the big backyard. Would definitely recommend!”

“Andi was absolutely amazing taking care of our dog, Rico. We have not had him very long and we were filled with nerves leaving him so early. Andi updated us regularly and completely eased our minds. She took fabulous care of him and we look forward to her watching him again.”

“Alexander was great! I was nervous leaving my senior dog because he’s become more anxious as he has aged but I felt so comfortable leaving Rudy with him for 2 weeks. I will definitely be rebooking with Alexander anytime we need a sitter!”

“Julia was absolutely wonderful! This was the first time in a long time that our dog had stayed with someone other than family, so naturally, we were a little anxious about how she would adjust. From the moment she arrived, Julia went above and beyond to make her feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. She kept us updated throughout her stay with thoughtful messages and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear how attentive and caring she was, especially when it came to helping ease our dog’s anxiety and making sure all of her needs were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and, without a doubt, will be reaching out to Julia again to care for our fur baby. Thank you so much, Julia, for treating her with such kindness, patience, and love. We truly appreciate you! ❤️🐾”


“The boarding with Gage and Ann was everything I could hope for and more! My recent rescue melted into their loving structure like he had always been family. The regular updates and the prompt communication made it easy to relax and not worry about my pup one bit. My pup isn’t the easiest to manage and Gage was spectacular at recognizing body language cues and helped bring out more confidence in my dog. I will happily rebook any time I need a sitter!”

“Kailyn was amazing with our Ari! We got daily updates and she really kept Ari engaged during her stay while we were gone for Europe. Our dog Ari loved all the company she had at Kailyn’s home that she didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend Kailyn!”

“She was so great with Benson, accommodating us very last minute on emergency and taking such great care of him, keeping me updated, giving him lots of love and play time. I so appreciate her and it's a great environment with a big yard and playmates. He had a blast and I'm so happy!”

“This is ny first time leaving Teddy with Nina. I was a little scared at the beginning because I will be gone for a week but Nina is very compassionate with dogs. She knows how to handle Teddy. She is very flexible with her schedule. Our flight got delayed and she is so nice to take care of Teddy and reassured us that Teddy is well taking care of.”

“I am so grateful to Paula and family for taking such good care of my baby. I had a last minute trip and she was so accommodating .She was sitting and enjoying petting when I walked in. I highly recommend Paula.”

“Lorraine was amazing! This was our first time using Rover so I was a little nervous but we got really lucky to have Lorraine. We have a lab with lots of energy and she came home exhausted! Walks, playtime and swimming. She sent pictures and videos everyday which made it so much easier to be away from our baby. We will definitely use Lorraine again and again.”

“Diana was perfect! Every single day she sent me videos of Ginger… And I loved it, I could see how happy Ginger was and how much she was loving being in there! I really recommend Diana’s services!”


“Danielle has been just amazing with my Great Dane, Kiera! Danielle and her family make Kiera feel so much at home! My pup, ok she is 7, but pup at heart, looks absolutely wonderful when I pick her up and just as happy in all the pics that Danielle sends. Thank you so much Danielle for taking such wonderful care of my goofy girl! :)”
“Adam was a great communicator and was great with our dog! He was able to accommodate a last-minute request for an earlier drop-off and sent regular updates about how things were going. Would definitely recommend him and leave Mochi with him again!!”

“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!”

“Anthony was fantastic, he sent pictures to reassure me my dog was doing fine. He picked up my dog and dropped him off even though we were 40 minutes from his location, we were able to enjoy our night without worry. I definitely recommend him to everyone and will use his services again when in the area. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our baby!”

“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Citra on Rover is $46.62 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 461 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Citra. 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 Citra 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 Citra 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 Citra 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 Citra.
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 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 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.
