“Erin did a great job watching our dog and Kitten while we were away for a week. Our dog is elderly and has arthritis and she made sure she got daily walks and stayed comfy. We got lots of updates along the way and were very glad to come home to our fur babies and see them so well taken care of. I would definitely recommend!”
“Renee is so loving and attentive to our dogs! This was our first time leaving them overnight…we felt totally comfortable, received pics and updates, and found happy, contented dogs in the morning. She and her doodle will be our go-to from now on. Thank you, Renee!”
“Nothing but good things to say about this visit for our Dog. Josie sent updates every day and we could tell our dog had so much fun at their home! She even delivered our dog back to us at end of stay! Amazing experience and we’ll do again!”
“Kelly is fantastic and we know Molly loves it at Kelly’s place with plenty of room to explore. Kelly kept us up to date along Molly with lots of pics and videos. We will definitely be booking with Kelly again!!!”
“My Kaviar enjoys every minute with Wendy and her family. Wendy provides exceptional care and provides photos of Kaviar everyday. When I leave Kaviar with Wendy,I know he will be cared for as I would, and will be cherished as family.”
“I’m so happy I found this wonderful family to watch my Frenchie. They always keep me up to date during my Frenchie’s stays with them, it is super clear they love dogs and most importantly, they are simply good people.”
“Edward was AWESOME!!! He's very quick to respond and professional. He will always give you updates and photos while you are away from your babies. He was very patient with my anxious Aussie as well. Feel safe and secure with Edward watching over your pets!”
“Imani was absolutely professional and provided my babies with comfortable accommodations during my 4 day vacation. My dogs are seniors and require a lot of attention and I appreciate how attentive she was to all of their needs. As a dog mom I’m always a bit nervous about leaving my babies behind when I go on vacation, but she put my mind at ease. She sent ample pictures throughout their stay and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. 5/5 🐾, highly recommended. I would definitely book her now!”
“Yet again another amazing experience!! Yekaterina is absolutely amazing!! We received so many pictures and videos each and everyday to check on our puppy!! We truly love our puppy staying with her:) until next time! Thank you!”
“Hannah was really great with my senior dog and cat. She had a calm and warming presence about her and my animals were well taken care of. Will definitely ask for her on the future!”
About: Hey pet parents! My name is Skyla & I am one of the biggest dog lovers you will ever meet. I love having dogs stay with me and want them to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away! They get plenty of attention, walks, and lots of playtime in my fully fenced yard. I have plenty of toys and treats, and they’re welcome on the furniture and encouraged to make themselves at home. I keep crate time to a minimum, so they’ll spend most of their time out with me playing, on a walk, or hanging out in the house. Your dog doesn’t have to be dog-friendly to stay with me. If they’d rather play with me, have their own space, or do their own thing, that’s completely fine! I’m happy to give each dog the kind of attention they’re most comfortable with. For everyone’s safety, dogs must be housebroken, crate trained, flea-free, and comfortable around people. I also have a boarding FB page if you’d like to check me out further: The Dog House Pet Boarding All dogs get daily yard exercise + one on one playtime + walks. My job is very flexible (part time hybrid) so I am home most of the time. I do have large crates and pens available for your dog to stay in if you wish. My home is furnished with plenty of dog toys and treats, so your pup will always be occupied! Fresh water is always available. My pets are allowed on the furniture, so your dog will feel at home.
“I had my very first Rover experience with Bryce and it was wonderful! He took excellent care of my German Shepherd and even accommodated a last minute request to watch my friend’s dog as well. He made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs with him and sent us frequent photo updates while we were away. I would 10/10 recommend Bryce to anyone looking for a kind, patient, and reliable dog sitter!”
“Penny had a wonderful time with Debra and her sweet dog Jester. I received many pictures throughout the weekend and it was obvious Penny was well taken care of. 10/10! I would absolutely book with Debra again.”
“Lauren was amazing and went above and beyond! She gave us many updates and kept in communication with us about our dog while we were away. We would definitely recommend Lauren!”
“Grandma C is by far the best Rover I have ever booked. My dog is very anxious with new people, but he immediately took to her which is really uncommon behavior for him. He was very obviously feeling comfortable and safe within minutes of arriving and I wouldn’t have wanted anybody else to watch him. She will treat your pet like it’s her own fur baby. Will definitely book again!”
“Absolutely love Kristin! She welcomed our dog into her home as her own! Kept us completely updated & even sent lots of pics!! Made us feel so comfortable that Scout was in her care while we were out of town.”
“Linda was wonderful and helped to make us feel comfortable leaving our “baby” with her. She sent photos each day and was flexible with our schedule. We look forward to using her again soon.”

Renee is absolutely wonderful! She treated our two dogs as if they were her own! They settled down very easily into her home and routine with her personal dog. She kept us informed every day of how they were doing and sent pictures of them enjoying themselves. When we got home, they were happy to see us, but not stressed at all! I think they thought they were at summer camp! Thank you so much Renee for taking great care of them!!
Laura kept our dog Sunny for a weekend while we were visiting the island, and she was fantastic with her! She sent us photos and updates every single day, so it was easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Sunny was having the best time too! I would highly recommend Laura!
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!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fernandina Beach is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 714 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 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 Fernandina Beach 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 Fernandina Beach home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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.
