“My dog had a great stay with Adam. This was her second stay, and she was so excited to see him and both his dogs again. He even went out of his way to plan a play date between my dog and a dog friend she made on her first visit. My dog will continue to stay with Adam when she needs a sitter!”

About: Hi Everyone, My name is Penny and thank you for considering me as your Pet Caregiver. I have had pets (mostly dogs) in my life since a very young child. The unconditional love they provide always makes my heart smile and I will always care for your fur babies as if they are my own :) I have spent the last 20 years caring for my own 4 very special dogs and unfortunately it came time for them to cross the rainbow bridge due to age. I miss caring for them and would love to now spend my time assisting you in caring for your Fur Baby. I have had the pleasure of caring for my neighbors animals (including chickens) while they have traveled and can provide references upon request. I look forward to meeting with you and your beloved pets 🐾 I am currently a caretaker for an elderly post surgical neighbor and have a lot of free time most days. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog or cat when you are unable to be at home for them :) I am trustworthy and reliable to take care of your precious fur babies on my down time. I will follow all of your instructions and give them all the love they need while you are away.

“Andi takes such great care of Macy. Macy is always so happy to see her, and she spends plenty of time with her, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. Macy is on regularly scheduled medications, and she’s very attentive about giving them on time. Macy is also a sensitive dog, and she does a wonderful job making her feel comfortable and cared for. She also sends regular photos and updates, which I really appreciate.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid! I love them so dearly and would love to look after your babies! I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs big and small, high energy and couch potato’s, as well as senior dogs. Most recently lost my own senior dog to cancer so rest assured I am well versed in caring for our sweet elder babies with medical needs who require a bit more supportive care. I love being around animals and would be happy to help care for yours. I work from home and live with my partner who also loves animals! Outside of work I have availability after 5 pm Mon-Fri and am available most weekends. Caring for pets would depend on each independent pet's needs so I’d be happy to discuss what that looks like :) I also live right next to a beautiful and big park which is perfect for walks!

She took care of my sweet boy for a little over a week and constantly gave me updates. It gave me a piece of mind knowing he was in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking.”

He is a young dog that needs his training maintained in our absence and he has never regressed while in her care. She is the top of our list of trustworthy caregivers for Socks.”

About: What sets me apart is how much love, patience, and attention I give every pet! 🐾 I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m happy to follow specific routines, provide plenty of playtime and cuddles, and give extra patience and care to puppies or senior pets. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own and make sure you have peace of mind with updates and pictures along the way! 🤍🐶 Pet care is something I can easily make time for in my daily and weekly routine! I am a college student but I’m committed to being reliable, attentive, and flexible to meet each pet’s needs. I can plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I love spending quality time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to help them feel at ease in a familiar environment. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on their individual needs. I’m happy to follow any special instructions, keep their space clean, and send regular updates and pictures so you can feel confident your fur baby is in good hands! 🤍

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Edgar

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 374 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Edgar. 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.

96% of sitters in Edgar 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 Edgar 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 Edgar.

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 Edgar. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Edgar 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.

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.
