“We couldn’t be more pleased with the care and attention our little dachshund was given during her stay with Ana. Every day Ana sent an update with pictures. I would highly recommend Ana to care for your pet.”
“Britney is truly amazing. She’s been our go to sitter since last November. This time we had to go out of town with little advance notice. Britney responded very quickly that she would watch our dog. She eagerly took on the care of our dog despite the dog having a strain knee ligament. While Britney pampered Luna, she noted that the injury seemed more than just a strain. She contacted me and help us out by taking Luna to the vet for an x-ray. Turns out it was a tear, no a strain. I’m n order to keep Luna off the leg, she even slept on the couch and the floor with Luna! That is caring. I can’t praise her enough!”
“Teri is a wonderful person to care for your dog. Her home is completely dog friendly. We left our Bella with her for 9 days. When we picked Bella up she was completely content and happy. She had so much fun playing in the fenced yard with all the pups. Teri loved her like her own and Bella was completely content in our absence. Extraordinary to find such a wonderful fit for our baby.”
“We left our two fur babies with Bob and it was great! It was the first time leaving them with a sitter so we were more nervous than the doggies. Bob was so good at sending us updates , pictures and messages showing our doggies were being cared for and safe. His own doggies were friendly with our boys too! We definitely recommend and will be coming back! Thank you for everything.”
“5 ? times ten!!! Jeanne is amazing. Truly shows the pets love and is great at letting you know how your pet is doing. I highly recommend her to anyone! Will definitely be using her again.”
“Thanks Ellen for taking such great care of Olaf. He really enjoyed himself with Salty. I appreciate your dropping him off at our house when we couldn't get him picked up. It was a great help. Looking forward to using your services again.”
“Robin made an instant connection with our pup Stella. We were sent photos of their time together and Stella was very happy. We highly recommend Robin to watch your fur baby, they’ll be in good hands.”
About: I’ve taken care of different dogs all my life I really love dogs I love playing with them and making sure they are cared for Im available for pet sitting anytime because im currently unemployed and this is how im going to try and make income I’m available on weekends and weekdays anytime after 12:30 My bf has a fenced in backyard and we let his dogs go out and play and he we also have a cat that I always like to play with
“Where do I begin? Natalie has been so wonderful, in the past and for this most recent stay (8 nights). We received photos, a video montage/slide show, and the most adorable full sheet of little stories about what Poppi did, didn’t do, and other fun things. Natalie was very flexible, both our departure and return times changed, and she was very agreeable to the changes- and happily accommodated said changes. Natalie’s daughter totally embraced Poppi’s loving nature (I.e. lots of licky kisses!) which was above and beyond. I hate to provide such a glowing review because I’d selfishly like to keep her all to myself, but that wouldn’t be fair! All dogs deserve to be loved and cared for as my Poppi has been. Thank you Natalie (and family)!”
“Tara was such an A+ sitter for my dog! She took him in over the holidays on a short notice and was very accommodating to our schedule. She sent alot of fun photos and I couldn't recommend her enough! Thanks Tara!!”
“Kathy was great, I never felt uncomfortable leaving Louis with her and Roy. The daily text photo reports were always welcome. He had a blast playing in their large fenced back yard. Highly recommended.”
About: We are retired and would love to welcome your dog into our home for daytime, evening, or overnight care. We offer a comfortable, cage-free environment, unless you prefer that your dog be crated. We only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup will receive lots of individual attention and won’t be overwhelmed by a house full of unfamiliar dogs. We live in a home on the Port Charlotte/Englewood border and have a sweet little dog named GiGi who loves having a furry friend to play with. GiGi is definitely spoiled! She normally sleeps with us, and while staying here, your dog is welcome to sleep wherever he or she feels most comfortable. We want your pup to feel at home—and you can be sure they’ll get plenty of love and attention from us, too. We had our beloved Maltese, Bella, for 13 wonderful years, so we are very comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering medications when needed. We know how important it is to feel confident about who is caring for your pet. Our goal is to give your dog a safe, relaxed, loving home-away-from-home where they’re treated like part of the family until you return. We look forward to meeting you and your pup! 🐾💕 We are happily married and retired, living in East Englewood, which gives us plenty of time to provide your dog with lots of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. We have one miniature Cockapoo named GiGi, who is friendly and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Since we’re retired, we have a very flexible schedule and are available for daytime, evening, and overnight care. Your dog will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. 🐾💕 We have always been dog lovers and have had dogs in our home throughout our lives. To us, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re part of the family, bringing so much love, companionship, and comfort into our lives. We only care for one guest dog at a time, so your pup will receive plenty of individual attention in a calm, comfortable home environment. We’ll follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel safe, secure, and loved while they’re with us. You can have peace of mind knowing your dog will be treated just like one of our own—and very well loved! 🐾💕
“Tammy took such good care of my dogs while we were out of town! From drop off to pick up she stayed in contact and sent me pics every day. Five stars for Tammy and her family! Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs throughout my childhood and teen years walking neighbors dogs, it took me a while to get a dog of my own because I know how much time love and energy is required. My pup gets along with cats and dogs, she'd be excited to have another pup to run with. While we don't have a fenced yard we have a large yard and a very quiet neighborhood. I'm at home 24/7 with my kids. So wake up early for walks before it gets hot outside. Fresh water changed. And feed for an hour before being picked up (any meds that need to be administered) litter boxes. Mid morning yard play time. Quick potty break around 2pm. Playtime at 5pm Feeding time 7-8 meds after as needed. I have a very quiet neighborhood with minimal traffic perfect for safe walks. For cats I have a quiet room if they prefer to be secluded. My house has cat trees toys a plenty.
“After our meet and greet, where my Lucy was greeted by Erica'sweet little dog, she walked right up to the house.The first day of her stay and made herself right at home. Erica sent me lots of pictures. And I knew Lucy was getting all the snuggles, she needed. I will call erica again”
About: I love animals as I have had about ten cats over the years and about four dogs. I have had pets since I was basically born. At one point I was looking into or was recommended by people to become a vet! I am at the moment typically free other than doing school work for college. I would be able to tend to animal needs pretty much anytime! I am often noted as attentive and disciplined, especially when it comes to others. For in home care I let pets do their thing (unless potting on things or breaking).

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Jobean
Teri was an amazing dog sitter from the very beginning! She was friendly, courteous, and absolutely professional. You could immediately see how much she loves animals. Our dog, Tony, took a liking to her right away, and during our initial meeting, we were so pleased to see how comfortable he felt with her. Her home was filled with love for animals. Although we didn’t meet her husband initially, the pictures she sent showed him caring for and loving our Tony, too. It was so reassuring to know our little boy was receiving such wonderful attention. Teri sent pictures and messages throughout his stay, which made us feel completely comfortable and gave us peace of mind. Tony clearly had a great time and felt right at home! We highly recommend Teri to anyone looking for a loving, dependable dog sitter. We will definitely use her again. Thank you so much, Teri, for taking such wonderful care of our precious Tony!

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.
97% of sitters in El Jobean 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 El Jobean 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 El Jobean.
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 El Jobean. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 El Jobean 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.
