“Phillip is a caring and conscientious person who took care of our pet like she was his own. Even though our cat is “Spicy” he worked with her to put her at ease and kept her in her own area for her comfort. It’s people like this that restore our faith in humanity”
“Amazing dog sitter. They went above and beyond the service. Coco loved them. I was in an accident in my vacation and they were there to extend my stay. They are wonderful people and a beautiful baby. I didn’t expect the kindness that they showed.”
“Joanna and her family were great! She communicated well, sent lots of pictures, and let me how Chance was doing throughout his stay. He got along well with her two pups and I'm sure he enjoyed playing with them out in the fenced yard. You can tell Joanna is very conscientious and a huge dog lover!! Thank you Joanna!”
“Helen Marie took great care of our dog. He’s 12 and a bit of an anxious boy, but she made him feel welcome and cared for in our absence. Highly recommend her services!”
“Nycole did an excellent job with Albert. She sent videos and pictures of him playing with her little dog and he was having a blast. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip. Whenever I take another trip I will always check and see if she is available first.”
“Sarah was great. This was our first time using Rover.com and Sarah instantly puts us as ease. She sent frequent updates with pictures to let us know how our dog was doing.”
About: Hi I’m Sarah. It would be an honor to care for and love on your pet. I’m a home health nurse who works Fri- Sun and have most of my weekdays free. I recently lost my sweet Golden, Maddie to cancer in June 2026. I do have a Facebook page for her and my son‘s dog, River. if you would like to see it, just say the word. I just can’t live without animals in my life but I’m not ready to get another one yet. I have many years experience of dog sitting for my son who is a truck driver and friends. I’ve had several dogs and cats and 1 bunny throughout my life. I’ve had dogs ranging in sizes small to large. Keeper, who was a Chiweenie lived to be 19. And Jenny, who was an Akita lived to be 12. Ive had several cats over the years, Daisy, Cupcake, Mouser, Alice and Nub Wagger. I am interested in dog walking, in-home visits/check in’s and boarding overnight in my home. I have a fenced in back yard where there’s plenty of room to run and play. I live in a quiet neighborhood. It would be my pleasure to spend time with your babies as I show them love and receive their love right back. I am a home health nurse that works Friday through Sunday and have the majority of my Monday through Thursdays are free. I am interested in dog walking, check in visits and dog sitting for you in my home. If I am boarding overnight, I only take 1 dog at a time so your dog will have my undivided attention. I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood. The fence being the main reasons why I chose my home. Only the best for my Maddie. Life has been very empty since she passed from cancer in June in 2026. I would like to fill my yard back up with positive energy, happiness and love from more animals.
About: I once had 13 cats I cared for. I now have a dog and a cat of my own. I enjoy spending time with animals. I can host up to 2 dogs a night in my home. I have a large yard they can play and do their business in. I have a crate they can use if needed or they can sleep on the couch or floor. If you prefer I can come to your home and sit with your animals, I would need to leave a few times a day to come home and care for my own pets. I can administer any needed medications. I have cared for sick animals in the past. Currently can work with my laptop anywhere there is an internet connection. Happy to sit with your pets or stop by for visits several times a day. If they are brought for boarding I can give them breaks as often as needed. I can crate your dog if needed at night. I can walk your dog. I have a large yard for your dog to play in.
About: I work as a teacher at a farm a few days a week and I work from home the rest of the week. I also am a homeschool mom so I am home mostly ! I consider myself a homebody and have the ideal setting to just be able to love on your dog all day every day. They won’t ever be lonely and they will be able to have all their needs met 24/7 I both work from home and on a farm as a teacher a few days a week. I am home mostly days of the week with the exception of stepping out to run errands if need be and for a few hours weekly to teach at a farm. We have a huge fenced in yard and the ideal situation for your dogs. We lost both of our dogs last year sadly and unfortunately due to cancer and not only do we miss having dogs, but our son greatly misses having dogs here as well. We are dog lovers and we can’t wait to have the opportunity to love on yours !!!
“One week ago, I'd never thought of leaving my dogs with someone, but today I can whole-heartedly recommend it! Amelia and her lovely family made my Border Collie babies feel at-home and safe even when I was thousands of miles away. Her thoughtful attention-to-detail and frequent Pupdates (with photos!) made my withdrawal from them much easier (and I'm sure they were having so much fun with Daisy that they forgot to miss me :) 100 per cent recommend and will definitely book again next time I have to leave them in town! Thank you so much, Amelia, God Bless you and yours <3”
“Dennis took great care of Raven. He sent photos throughout her stay which was 5 nights and we could see she really enjoyed her time with him. We’d be happy to entrust Dennis with any of our pets any time. Thank you Dennis!”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life, starting with our family cat we got when he was just two weeks old and later our rescue German Shepherd. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience pet sitting rabbits and lizards, giving me a great deal of comfort with all kinds of pets! I previously volunteered at a cat rescue in St. Augustine and am looking forward to volunteering with the local humane society now that I can drive myself. Having cared for my own senior rescue dog until earlier this year, I know how to read body language and provide the gentle, individualized care pets need. I am also comfortable and confident administering topical, liquid, and pill medications to both dogs and cats having gained that experience from not only our pets, but also clients pets that I have cared for. Friends, neighbors, and clients trust me to treat their pets just like family. I complete my high school classes fully online, which gives me a wonderfully flexible schedule during the week for walks, drop-in visits, and daytime care. The only fixed times I am busy are on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:00 to 6:30 PM for orchestra rehearsals, but otherwise, I am open to fit right into your pet's routine unless I have any previous responsibilities or commitments. Keeping pets safe is my absolute top priority. Along with being a lifelong animal lover, I hold human certifications in things such as First Aid, BLS CPR, and babysitting safety, so you can feel completely at ease knowing a responsible, safety-minded person is looking after your home and pets. I also have my own reliable car to get around easily for appointments or emergencies, and I will always care for your pets with the same love and attention I gave my own.
“Heather and Michael watched our boys for the first time while we were on a trip. They were wonderful! They kept us updated and sent pictures throughout our trip. It’s always hard to leave your babies with someone new but we were very thankful to find them. Our dogs were not stressed out when we picked them up. They seemed so happy and relaxed which is not normally the case after we leave them for a few days. I highly recommend Heather and Michael and will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Great 1st time experience with Rover! Heather took above and beyond care of our two dogs at her place while we were out of town. She kept constant communication with us and followed all the instructions we left. Our two dogs are a handful and the were greatly entertained while we were gone. That is what we wanted. Dogs were well taken care of and all ready for me when I picked them up. We will use them again!!”
About: Hi! I’m your pet’s new favorite human 🐾 I treat every fur baby like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles (if they’re into that!). I’m super patient, reliable, and great at picking up on each pet’s unique personality and needs. I also have a background in childcare, working in multiple child care settings and holding a CDA (Child Development Associate), so I’m naturally nurturing, attentive, and big on routines and safety. Whether it’s a shy cat or an energetic pup, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine! I only work about 3 days a week from 9–5, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give pets the attention they deserve. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean space with a fenced yard for playtime, plus lots of love and attention. I also have a friendly 3-year-old Shih Tzu who loves other animals and makes a great companion. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine
About: I have always been the one friends and family call for pet sitting services! I love animals more than people and that sums me up ! I have experience walking dogs of all sizes and breeds, and am confident in my ability to provide the best care possible ! I am a full time dance teacher during the school season, however during summer I am available 24/7 and love to pet sit throughout ! I have experience both caring for pets in my home as well as their homes. I personally don't mind, whatever makes the pet most comfortable:)

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 Espanola 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 Espanola 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 Espanola.
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 Espanola. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Espanola 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.
