Kitti is wonderful! Our dog Guinness is 12 years old & nervous around other dogs. Up until now, she had never stayed with anyone other than family. My son was getting married out of town, which meant the entire family would be at the wedding. We took Guinness to meet Kitti twice before leaving her, and by the 2nd day of the long weekend, not only was she happy, she was following the other dogs around & sleeping next to them. Kitti was patient, loving, & treated Guinness as if she'd been part of the pack forever. Guinness will now be going over for occasional play dates. Thank you Kitti!
We boarded Kida with Sandra for a long weekend and had an amazing experience! Sandra would send us updates morning and night on how Kida was doing and took lots of pictures/videos. She brought her to parks, and gave Kida plenty of play time. We would happily board Kida with Sandra anytime!
Joyce was amazing and truly went above and beyond! She was incredibly accommodating with several requests and sent daily updates. We were abroad for two weeks and felt completely at ease knowing everything was in great hands. So grateful for her flexibility, kindness, and care. Highly recommend!
Pamela is the best dog sitter I've had for Kira. I've probably booked her about 10 times by now. She takes such amazing care of Kira. I love her updates every morning, afternoon, and evening . They're like little report cards and they give me peace of mind while I am away. On top of being great with Kira, Pamela is incredibly accommodating and flexible with drop off/pick up times. I truly couldn't ask for a better sitter. Highly recommend!
First time booking on Rover and so happy that I found Monica! Monica has been very active responding to my requests and questions and also very accommodating with scheduling. My Wini has been thoroughly cared for when at Monica’s place for a week. Monica provides daily updates via photos and also looks out for anything odd and will let you know. I can tell Wini is very happy when at Monica’s place as she cares for Wini like her own. I will definitely be booking with Monica again in the future!
Wan's care for our two dogs was excellent! Kono is a senior dog on pain medication and Chewie is on medication for anxiety. I received daily photos and updates on how they were doing. They looked very happy and peaceful. I'll definitely pick Wan to care for our pups during next vacation. Thank you, Wan!!
Sharlyn was terrific! A very positive attitude! We felt very comfortable leaving our Huskies (85 lbs & 64 lbs) with her. Her yard was spacious and gave our furries a ton of roof to roam and jet around. Sharlyn had a dedicated doggie room with a dog door offering ‘in & out privileges’. All in all, a great choice! Thank you, Sharlyn! Sincerely, Ken & Tammy
Jesus R was an absolute 5-star dog sitter! Over 6 days, he kept me completely at ease with great communication and regular photo updates, so I always knew my pup was in good hands. He followed all my care instructions to a T, and most importantly, my dog was happy and well-cared for the entire time. I returned to a content, healthy pup — what more could you ask for? I would highly recommend Jesus R to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter. Will definitely be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Citrus is $41 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 10,034 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Citrus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Citrus 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 Citrus 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 Citrus.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Citrus. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Citrus 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 CA 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
