“Laquita & James where so helpful and friendly. They gave me constant updates (with pics) of how my dog Millie was while I was gone. They genuinely care and it shows. Millie will be back next time we need a sitter for sure!”

“Andi did a great job with Sampson! I received constant updates and reassurance on my dog’s well being. Her entire family also took part in making my dog’s stay as great as possible. I couldn’t ask for better service and would highly recommend!”

“Great services, highly knowledgeable, and will send lots of cute pictures of your dog to check in! Highly recommend booking with her, just don’t take all the time slots 😆”

“Coco had such a great time at Lorraine’s home. She send me pictures and videos everyday and I knew my dog was okay and having fun. Coco played with other dogs and had a fun vacation just like me.”

“Adam is great with my dog, Zena. She has stayed with him several times, and he always goes above and beyond to make sure she has what she needs. We'll continue to do stays with Adam.”


About: (¡Español es mi primer idioma, por si se te hace más cómodo/fácil hablarme en español!) • SATURDAYS ARE FOR FREE!! As a seventh-day adventist I observe the Sabbath, so I do not charge for Saturdays. However, I challenge you to use that money to help someone in need!🙏🏻 Drop off by Friday night: 100% off Drop off on Saturday 7am-11am: 50% off Drop off on Saturday 12pm-5pm: 25% off • There is an extra $5 charge for high energy dogs (meaning dogs that require constant/frequent attention, supervision and/or stimulation). Right now I'm preparing myself for a professional certification so I'd rather not be constantly interrupted and this is the condition I can provide to help you out. • 8 nights or more are $23/night (first adult dog) • 1 dog + 1 cat $30/night • $17/day (first dog) for 3 days or more of weekly daycare. Daycare is closed on Saturdays. • I encourage last-minute bookings! If your pet is socialized there shouldn't be any problem. In any case we'll talk about the details and I'll see if I can help you out💪🏻 • Important! Please, let me know of your pet's misbehaviors before booking. I'd really appreciate your honesty, especially if it's a last-minute booking. • Both my apartment and the surrounding neighborhood are very quiet and peaceful. There's a lot of green areas AND a small dog park where they can walk (or run) freely! • Your pet will be part of the family while they're here! They'll receive frequent attention and love if they need it or simple constant caring company if they just want that. • Cats are more than welcome! We love cats too—especially my mom. And don't worry about my dog; he has been surrounded by cats since birth, so he simply ignores them. I occasionally need sitters myself so I know how hard it is to find one that's not painfully expensive AND that you're comfortable with. That's why I want to provide the experience I'd love to receive myself: an affordable care for your pets IN COMBINATION with the most approachable and relaxed atmosphere for you as possible, ESPECIALLY if you're going away for weeks and if you have multiple pets! Let's face it. You're only looking for someone who'd simply be there and take care of them because there's no other option. You'd do it yourself if you could! So shouldn't you find sitters that make you (and your wallet!) feel at peace with leaving your loving companion behind? That's why I'm here to help! A pet parent for pet parents =) I am at home every day, all day long—except when I go out for groceries, which takes no more than two hours. Aside from that, I stay present and keep myself busy in the apartment. I cook, exercise, read, and am currently also studying for a professional certification. I don't have any visitors, nor do I go out for anything else. I moved in a few months ago. Here there's only my dog Mylo, my mother and me. • All of your pet's physical and emotional needs will be met—that is my absolute priority, including their absolute safety. • Regarding male and/or bigger dogs, since my dog is a bit picky at first with some of them, it may be necessary a 5-10 minute 'Parallel Walk' at the meet & greet. We'll just walk around the pond in front of the apartment 1 or 2 times. It’s the safest way to make sure both dogs are 100% comfortable before they share a home. Only then we'll know if I can accept your doggie. • Hey, we all want this to work out but if the dogs don't like it, well....that's why we do the meet and greet: to know if the choice fits everyone involved and choose accordingly🙏🏻 • I would NEVER intentionally harm an animal. I'd never lay even a finger on pets (to discipline them) that do not belong to me. • I never give human food to pets. Occasionally, I share certain fruits with my own dog (specifically those that are safe and non-toxic for them) or, occasionally, a boiled egg; aside from that, nothing else. BUT, your pet will strictly follow the diet you specify. • I clean the bowl and pour fresh filtered water daily. • I have set my account available to no more than 2 pets at a time; however, if you wish to ensure that your pet is the *only* one in my care (other than Mylo I mean) during their stay (for your own peace of mind), I can arrange it for a small additional fee. It is worth noting that, regardless of the number of pets present, I guarantee that I can manage their interactions appropriately, as I am always at home. • If the pet has socialization issues to the point I'm not able to serve other pet parents, that might incur in additional fees. • I operate with complete transparency, and my mission here is to serve you—to be your assistant and EXACTLY the help you're looking for right now. I'll provide as regular communication as you need and pictures of your blessing daily. My goal is your peace of mind and their comfort! • I encourage you to ask me whatever else you need to know!
“Julia and Alllen took a good care of my two beautiful cata They responded to my messages , sent me pictures everyday , and hand fed my cat when she was anxious and refused to eat They are a great pet care giver and i will use their service again”

“This is my third time having Diana watch our dog and every time it’s a great experience. I appreciate her communication and her kind attitude and our doggie always comes back home happy ❤️”

“We are so grateful for your family! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dogs and for being so kind and supportive through our last minute flight changes. Highly recommend!”

“Elisa was wonderful! Our black lab, Jake, got to spend 5 days at her house. She is very kind and attentive. I am grateful for her services. 💙 It was a great first experience leaving our pet with someone other than family. Highly recommend!”

“Where do I start? Stefhany and Jean P are the BEST!! I’ve never utilized this app before and this was my first time using it and we are so HAPPY that we were connected with Stefhany and Jean P!!! They cared for my 2 fur babies for 12 days and let me tell you, they communicated with me frequently sharing pictures of our fur babies and updates. I am beyond grateful of how well they took care of them. Those of you who are not sure about this service and pet saviors… DO NOT choose anyone until you’ve tried this service! Specifically, Stefhany and Jean P, they are going to be my “go to” fur babies sitters moving forward. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend Stefhany and Jean P to you ALL! I promise you that they will LOVE your fur babies just as much as you love them yourself! You will NOT be disappointed at all. If they ever was such a 10 star rating, Stefhany and Jean P would have gotten it from us. Thank you Stefhany and Jean P! You have no idea how relieved we are to have found you both as our fur babies caring and loving sitter. We will be in touch again for sure. THANKS A MILLION!!! ❤️🙏🏽❤️”

“This was the perfect place for my dog! She is very nervous and shy but got along well with their two little dogs. I got lots of pictures and updates and felt very confident that she was happy and safe. She is very picky about which humans she trusts so it means a lot that her first Rover experience was so amazing.”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I have years of hands-on experience caring for them and truly enjoy spending time with them. I provide patient, loving care and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups. I’m available for boarding seven days a week. I have a good- sized fenced yard and a friendly medium-sized dog to keep your fur baby company. I can also crate your dog if needed.
“Luna had so much fun that she didn’t want to leave! I also appreciate Alex for creating a safe, comfortable environment for Luna to hang out with other dogs without being overwhelmed 🐾”


“Kailyn was awesome with my dogs!! They’ve been “hungover” all day after spending the weekend at her house! One became obsessed with one of her toys and she let him keep it! She is clearly a loving dog person and my dogs can’t wait for their next vacation!”

“Joseph took great care of our dog, Poppy. His entire family showed Poppy love & kindness the entire time we were away. I would highly recommend this sitter as your next go to!”

“Lindsay did a great job taking care of our two pups! She is very friendly & our dogs warmed right up to her. She was also great at communicating & asking questions to make sure that she was meeting our pups needs.”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Citra
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Citra on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 459 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.
94% 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.
