More than anything, we wanted a big, open yard. Larry has a fabulous yard! Scruff had a great time! Larry's a perfect dog person..relaxed, easygoing, doesn't get excited about much. Scruff jumped up to Larry's lap and said, "How about I come play with Jackson?" We will work out a nice playdate schedule for Jackson and Scruff.

We could not be more pleased and grateful for the care Renee gave to our dog. We were on vacation and found ourselves in need of short notice day care for our dog. Renee was so friendly and helpful. Our dog was well taken care of and so excited to stay with Renee and her pup for the day. We felt safe and were happy our dog was so well taken care of. We would definitely book with Renee again!!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. Through those experiences I’ve learned that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to make them feel safe and at home. I’ve also cared for senior dogs, including administering injectable medication to my own dog when she became diabetic, which taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a quiet environment, I’ll provide attentive care, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Our schedules allow us to provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay. While there may be times when pets are home alone, we typically plan our schedules so they are not left alone for more than about 4 hours at a time. We plan around each booking as much as possible to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. We’re always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and supervision needs before. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and organized home where every pet receives individual attention. Before each stay, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, every walk and potty break is supervised, and I never leave pets outside unattended. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing.

I just love Graceann...and so do our pups! They love going to see Graceann and the rest of the family. And how fun that the beach is just right there for a great walk! I also love how knowledgeable Graceann is about dog behavior and her willingness to help train our stubborn terrier 2 year old when he comes for daycare!

About: Hey pet parents! My name is Skyla & I have four dogs of my own, Bunny, Ginger, Blue, and Amigo. I have had all my dogs since they were puppies and they are very well behaved and friendly. I have had a strong passion and so much love for dogs since I was little. When your dog boards with me, you have the option to allow them to play with my dogs or stay separate. Regardless-they will get so much affection. I do require food to be supplied by owner so we can avoid any belly aches. They will get lots of attention here, playtime in the yard, & walks if you choose. This will be their home away from home! I can assure you-they will be safe, fed, and happy. Feel free to ask any questions:) My dogs get daily exercise and play time & mental stimulation. Lots of walks around the neighborhood. My job is very flexible so I am home most of the time. I do have one crate 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.

Linda was OUTSTANDING...providing last-minute care for my dachshund mix while I was visiting the island for family vacation. She responded promptly, sent lots of updates and pictures, and was very accommodating to our travel schedule. She is located a short distance from many hotels and resorts on Amelia island so it was no problem to drop and pick up my pup. I would definitely book her again and give her my highest recommendation. Rocky loved her too!

About: I have hands-on experience dog sitting for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, maintaining routines, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. With my background in healthcare, I’m especially comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior or health and responding calmly and responsibly. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I do have a side job as a private in home caregiver for an average time of 30 minutes to an hour every morning, Monday through Friday. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I have availability for boarding 7 days a week. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I stick closely to feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific instructions to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a calm, secure space where pets receive plenty of supervision, affection, and structured care. I’m experienced with administering medications if needed and always monitor for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hi! I’m Kariah, and caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether your pets need a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a full-time REALTOR®, trust, communication, and reliability are the foundation of my career. I understand how important it is to know your home and pets are in good hands, which is why I treat every booking with the same level of care and professionalism I’d want for my own family. During every visit, I provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, lots of love and attention, medication if needed, and detailed Rover cards with photos so you always know how your pets are doing. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether they want to play fetch for 20 minutes or curl up next to someone for extra affection, I tailor every visit to what makes them happiest. I proudly serve families throughout the St. Marys, Kingsland, Yulee, Fernandina Beach, Callahan, and surrounding areas. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! 😊💛 My schedule is usually pretty flexible as a realtor. I am available Weekdays & Weekends at anytime you would need me! I can work around your schedule & what is best for you & your pets! I have a fenced in backyard that your dogs & mine can play in! I can easily crate your dog if needed! I can also take your dog to the park to play!

About: I have watched many dogs before and families have always loved me. I am very energetic and can get outside and do play time. I’m also very gentle and know how to handle calm dogs that like to cuddle. I have also worked at hot paws playing with dogs outside, cleaning kennels, changing food and water etc. I am an at home mother to a 1 1/2 year old who loves puppies. I am free Monday-Sunday. I do prefer to be home during the night but it can change sometimes so just ask if that’s what you need. I do not have a fenced in property so dogs will have to be walked on a leash outside if staying at my home. I will take dogs to potty every 1-2 hours. I can put dog in crate if preferred or they can run free in the home and play. They can also jump on my bed/couch if they want to relax, unless otherwise asked not to teach them that is okay. Anything you ask of your dog will be done.

About: Hi! I’m Jerrica, a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) with 10 years of experience in the veterinary medical field and a lifelong love for animals. 🐾 My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away by caring for your pets like they’re part of my own family. With my veterinary background, I’m comfortable recognizing when something seems “off,” caring for pets with a variety of needs, and making sure every pet in my care is safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet sitting with me is about more than meals, potty breaks, and a cozy place to sleep! I incorporate mental enrichment, playtime, exercise, affection, and plenty of one-on-one attention based on your pet’s individual personality and routine. Whether they love toys and games, exploring outside, snuggling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I want their stay to feel like a fun little vacation of their own. 🐶🐱❤️ When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family—because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to care for mine. Pet care isn’t something I have to squeeze into my schedule—it is my schedule! 🐾 As a full-time pet sitter, my days are centered around the pets in my care, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and enrichment throughout the day. I keep my schedule flexible so I can accommodate each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, active, and feeling like part of the family! 🐾❤️ For pets staying with me, I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and potty breaks, and I also offer leash walks for exercise and enrichment. For dogs who enjoy a little adventure and have their owner’s permission, I can provide transportation to local dog parks for some extra exercise and fun. My home also includes my friendly little Corgi, Cheesecake, along with my two school-aged kids, so pets who enjoy children and other dogs have plenty of opportunities for companionship, playtime, and attention. Of course, I tailor each stay to the individual pet—quieter guests are given their own space and downtime, while our social butterflies can join in on the fun! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. No matter which service you choose, I want your pet to receive the same kind of attentive, loving care I’d want for my own. 🐶🐱

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Fernandina Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Fernandina Beach on Rover is $38.15 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 533 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Fernandina Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Fernandina Beach commute.

If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.

Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.

A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.

Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:

  • For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
  • For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
  • For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!

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.

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 533 sitters in Fernandina Beach, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
