“Your dog is missing out on a great experience if you do not board him/ her at Larry’s place! Larry is a dog lover and has the perfect large fenced in shady area for your lovable pet. He knows all the ins and outs of feeding and playing and takes such a personal effort in taking care of your loved pet! My Jack Russell Terrier named Mobie had a blast! Updates with pictures showed how happy Mobie was… I was afraid he wanted to move in! I will definitely be back. Thank you for taking such good care of Mobie, Larry!!!!”
“Our dog recently stayed with Eboni a couple nights and we would highly recommend. Communication was excellent and she provided daily pictures. We could tell that Eboni and her family love pets and cared for our dog while we were away. Will be booking again.”
“Tracy and her husband were absolutely phenomenal. We will absolutely be using them again! She is very obviously a dog lover! Her house was clean, they were very good at communicating with us during our dog's stay with pics and videos and Rory very obviously loved her stay with them. Thank you again, Tracy!”
“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”
“We trusted Renee with our 11-year-old Multi-Poo (Bella) for a ten (10) day "holiday". Everything went extremely well. Renee made Bella feel welcomed and comfortable from Day 1. We got daily updates (including photos and videos) which made us feel very comfortable with our choice. We would highly recommend Renee to anyone looking for a caring, safe environment for their "puppies", while on vacation.”
“Our dog spent a week with Linda and the two of them fell in love with each other! Linda was so kind and caring and followed though with all our requests for our very spoiled baby. She even sent us pictures of the two of them together. We'll definitely have her take care of our dog in the future.”
“Sara was absolutely amazing with my Shih Tzu, Chloe. From the moment we met her, her personality was so warm and kind, and it immediately made me feel comfortable leaving Chloe in her care. She kept me updated and treated Chloe like she was her own. It meant so much to hear that everyone fell in love with Chloe while she was there—it reassured me that she was getting lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful for the care Sara gave her and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Wendy is an exceptional sitter!! She took suvh great care of my baby. She sent pics daily and kept me updated and my baby busy. Will definitely use her again. Thank you Wendy!”
“Kelly and Brian look at Lakota like she's one of their own. We never have to worry about her while she's with them. Kelly and Brian helped Lakota celebrate her 10th birthday while we were gone. They got her a cupcake and sent photos of her enjoying her cake while wearing a party hat. We really can't thank them enough for the care they provide her.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my commitment to providing exceptional care. I've cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, including fostering and rescuing dogs from neglectful situations. Through hands-on experience and self-education in canine behavior and training, I've developed the skills to understand and meet each dog's unique needs. Whether caring for playful puppies, active adults, or senior dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment that gives pet owners peace of mind. Im currently unemployed and have a great support system (friends and spouse who LOVE dogs.) Not tied to many commitments, leaving me free to be present & dog sit day/night. The only times im gone are to do errands. Which isnt more than 2 hrs at a time. Available Mon-Sun for nights and days :). Your pets safety and quality of care is very important to me. Just to describe some of the perks of boarding with me. I have a large yard thats fenced in. A spare bedroom that theyll sleep in/ or be crated in. Very spacious home they can roam freely. Theyre allowed on furniture. Can socialize with my two loving sweet dogs that are trained. Including a safe neighborhood for walks. If pet parent is not comfortable with their pup being around my pets. Ill ensure they remain seperated, as i have the ability to do so with dog gates in the home, if need be. I also have cameras to always keep an eye out (although physically id be present).
About: I am a former manager at a daycare and boarding facility, I have administered diabetes shots and other medications for animals. I plan to own my own daycare boarding facility in the future. Helping others and working with animals has always been my passion, I initially went to college for veterinary but decided that it wasn’t for me that a Daycare facility was best suited for me and my personality. I currently am a manager at a restaurant I can walk pets before 5:30 am but it didn’t give the option and anytime after 4 pm. I have three friendly dogs who are very socialized they go to doggy daycare and one elderly cat who is 16 and our yard is fenced in and I live down the street from a dog park as well!
“Kariah is absolutely wonderful! She took very good care of my dog while we took ferry to the Cumberland Island. She sent us pictures and updated us about how my dog was doing. It looked like my dog was also having a vacation in her home. When we picked up our dog, it was such a nice surprise that she presented me a ‘thank you’ card as well as a dog biscuit as a gift. She is so thoughtful and sweet, and made our first time experience with Rover perfect! Thank you, Kariah!”
“Tannia treated Cassie like a family member I had no concerns with leaving her there. The residence is well prepared for dogs with a nice back yard. Continuous communication and photos. Highly recommend”
“Kaitland did a wonderful job caring for our elderly dog, Prim. She gave her a variety of daily meds and Prim came home happy and calm. Great experience!”
“Patti and William were great with Georgia! They took really good care of her, sent updates and cute photos, and were super kind and easy to communicate with. I’d definitely book with them again 😊”
“The plans I had for my puppy fell through last minute. A friend referred Yekaterina and she responded immediately that she was available. I appreciated her flexibility and friendliness. She kept me updated and made sure I knew my puppy was safe and comfortable. I will absolutely be booking Yekaterina again!”
“Marlena was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winnie! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Marlena sent us daily updates and adorable pictures that showed how happy and comfortable Winnie was the entire time. It’s clear that she truly loves and understands dogs. Winnie came back happy, healthy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, Marlena is the best! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to watch their pup.”
“Jerome and his sweet shepherd girl took great care of our Prairie girl. Nice fenced yard for the girls to run and play together. Jerome S. sent great action photos of Prairie with her new best friends. It is comforting to be able to find terrific pet care takers through Rover.com.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fernandina Beach
I had a last-minute conference in Fernandina Beach and finding Brittany was an absolute lifesaver. She was incredibly accommodating and made everything so easy on short notice. Elsa had the best time running around the yard and absolutely loved playing with Brittany’s sweet Lab, Miko. I felt completely at ease knowing Elsa was so happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Brittany again and highly recommend her!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Graceann and her mom took incredible care of our golden retriever while we were in Amelia Island for our wedding, and her mom even brought him to the venue so he could be part of our day. Dallas had so much fun, and we can’t wait to book with them again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Fernandina Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fernandina Beach on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 716 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fernandina Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Fernandina Beach sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Fernandina Beach landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fernandina Beach 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 Fernandina Beach.
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.
You and your Fernandina Beach 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.
