“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”
“Vicky and her husband took very good care of my Napoleon this weekend while we went on a little getaway to Portland. Excellent communication, sent pictures and my Napoleon looked very happy ? when I picked him up. I had total peace of mind. Will definitely book them again”
“Mary gave our babies and excellent care over the week. Mary was very respectful and cared for our pups like they were her own. She sent pics every day and make us very comfortable with our separation. I would use Mary again if the need arises.”
“Joanna was very communicative throughout booking and boarding. She took time to call and talk a few days before they boarded about the care needed for our two dogs; one being diabetic. When something was of concern she contacted us and took care of also contacting the vet while we were on our cruise. Our dogs returned happy and healthy. We look forward to using Joanna in the future.”
“This was our first time using this app. Stephanie was so reassuring. Our pup loved her, and we found much comfort in her service. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. She had a nice fenced yard and took the pups to the dog park frequently. Lastly, she had an upbeat and happy personality.”
“Kataryna was amazing! This was the first time leaving our Kobe Bean with someone he didn’t know and she made us feel comfortable the entire time. Her experience with animals was evident from the start. She kept us informed and updated with photos and messages during his stay. We would highly recommend!”
“Great first meeting. Nycole has a very welcoming demeanor and made our dog feel at ease instantly. Her dogs are very friendly and they all got along great. She sent many updates with pictures, which was a great comfort for the first overnight stay. We will definitely be boarding with Nycole again.”
“It's always a bit nerve-wracking when you leave your family pet with someone new. Cheryl was accommodating with the initial meet-n-greet and we felt comfortable enough to give her a shot for our week's vacation. While we were away, we communicated a few times and she sent us some pictures and provided updates. We picked our dog, Roxxie, up after the week and she was clean and safe. She appeared to have had a lot of fun, too, because she slept half the day when we got her home. Cheryl has 2 dogs of her own plus there was another smaller dog about Roxxie's size for her to play with during the week. She definitely had fun and we'd feel comfortable recommending Cheryl and using her again in the future. ”
“Gen and her family are incredibly kind, caring, and wonderful! I booked Layla with them for a week, and they took such great care of her. I felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands, and it was clear that she was well loved and cared for. I would definitely book with Gen again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy home for their dog!”
“Shay is wonderful! She and her hubby work from home, are extremely conscientious and love dogs. They loved Birdie, which is a #1 priority. Will use them again and can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“Diane made sure our pup was well loved, fed, and felt right at home. She kept us updated with cute pictures and gave her lots of time outside. We had no concerns the moment we met her and would be more than happy to bring our doggie back next time we're in St. Augustine.”
“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 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 have taken care of pets since I was in middle school (11 years ago). I have taken care of dogs, cats and even an axolotl once! I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities and I am willing to accommodate them. I have taken care of pets from a variety of ages from old dogs to freshly born kittens! My schedule is currently flexible and I stay home most days of the week. I am willing to doing weekends on occasion or if needed. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard with plants, giving pets a secure and enriching space to explore and play. I currently don't have any pets of my own — my sweet beagle passed away. So your pet will get my full, undivided attention while in my care. Every animal is different, and I want your pet to feel right at home: if you have specific routines, feeding instructions, or accommodations your pet needs, just let me know and I'll make sure to follow them closely.
About: We’re a family of six with a whole lot of love to give! After losing our beloved Great Dane last year, we’re not quite ready to welcome another dog of our own—but we’re definitely ready to love on and spoil other people’s pets in the meantime. ❤️ We have two adults, four kids, and a fenced-in backyard in a safe, quiet, and very pet-friendly neighborhood. Our kids absolutely adore animals, so your pup will have no shortage of attention, playtime, belly rubs, and companionship! We know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, and we want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for like one of our own. We’ll treat your dog with patience, affection, and respect for their individual personality and routine. Whether your pup wants to run around the backyard, play with the kids, snuggle on the couch, or simply have a calm place to relax, we’re happy to accommodate what makes them comfortable. We may not be ready for another Great Dane just yet, but our home still has plenty of room for a dog to be loved. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine! I currently work part-time with just a few hours per week, which allows for plenty of flexibility. In addition, my husband works from home, so your pet will never be left alone. My kids are in school during the day, but they are very active and absolutely love animals. Once they’re home, they’re excited to help with walks, playtime, cuddles, and all the extra attention a pet could want. 🐾 We also have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get some energy out. Our neighborhood is safe, quiet, and very pet-friendly, so walks are an easy part of our routine. We love the idea of welcoming pets into our home and giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while their families are away. ❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. I’ll care for your pet as I would my own, with plenty of supervision, affection, and attention throughout their stay. Our home is in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood with a fenced backyard, giving dogs a secure space to play and get some fresh air. I’ll always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, exercise, and any special needs or preferences your pet has. With my husband working from home and me working part-time, your pet will have lots of human companionship and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. Our kids are animal lovers and will be excited to give your pet plenty of love and attention, while we as adults will always be responsible for their care and supervision. We also understand that every pet has a different personality. Some want to play all day, while others need a quiet space and time to warm up. We’ll respect their boundaries, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home. Most importantly, we know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet with someone else. We’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in good hands. ❤️🐾
“Austin did an amazing job taking care of our Onyx! 🐾 He kept us updated with photos, and seeing how comfortable and happy Onyx was made us feel so at ease while we were away. We’ll definitely be using Austin as our go-to pet sitter! Highly recommend! ❤️”
“Our pups enjoyed their stay at Jennifer's. We received updates and photos on how they were doing, they seemed to settle in quickly. She was a caring pet sitter and we were glad we found her!”
About: I’m a big animal lover! 🐾 I love giving dogs lots of attention, playtime, cuddles, and affection. For cats, I’m all about gentle love, sweet pets, and respecting their space when they need it. I’ll make sure your fur babies feel safe, loved, and right at home! ❤️ I work from home as self employed. Would love to make accompaniment that fits my flexible schedule for walk, play, attention and lots of love. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment in a quiet neighborhood with a balcony and plenty of nearby spots for walks. I always keep dogs leashed outdoors, stay alert on walks, and make sure they’re safe and supervised. I treat every pet like my own, giving them lots of love while respecting their comfort, routine, and boundaries. ❤️
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

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.
