“Daniela is so sweet and kind. My dog got along great with her sweet doggy (and other visiting pals) and he had lots of fun at her house for a week! Daniela sent so many wonderful photos and updates and I was so at ease knowing he got such great care - so much love and attention!”
“Jen was an awesome sitter for our sweet Golden, Captain. She was welcoming and kind from the start and I could tell how much she loves her Labs and felt a kinship that Captain would be welcomed into the retriever pack! Although I was nervous because he hasn’t really been around kitties, he ended up doing fine and Jen assured me he adjusted well and she sent great updates and photos while we were away! I highly recommend Jen!”
“Bernie had a great time with Jordan. I think Bernie is missing all his new dog friends that he met (especially Leo). I felt very comfortable that he would be well taken care of, so I was able to enjoy my visit with family. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Serena and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 4 month old puppy. She was given lots of attention and walks each day. And the update messages and pictures were a great way of keeping in touch during our first time away from this new member of our family. Thank you for making us feel comfortable with our choice of sitter!”
“Eliza has been absolutely wonderful with my dog. She has watched my dog multiple times and has had her over for playtime with her own dogs. Eliza genuinely loves animals, and my dog is always excited to see her. She is reliable, caring, and communicates well, which gives me complete peace of mind whenever my dog is with her. I always know my dog is getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection in a safe environment. I highly recommend Eliza to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter. I’m so grateful to have found her!”
“Herschel had a great stay with Susan! She was easy to make plans with and asked lots of questions about his care before his stay. I could tell she really wanted to make sure he was well taken care of. Her home has a safe outdoor area that he can run around in. He can be a handful but she did a great job with him!”
“Abigail was awesome! We were nervous leaving our 7 month old pup with her for seven days since we had never left him with anyone before, but when we picked him up we could 100% feel that he was treated with love and kindness the whole time. We will definitely be booking with her again as soon as we have a need.”
“They were great from start to finish. Quick to respond about my last minute request. Pleasant to work details out with. Jude seemed well cared for and happy when I picked her up. So happy this worked out last minute, they saved the day for me.”
“This was the first time Sasha and I have been apart so I was a little nervous but Amy was wonderful and I could tell Sasha was comfortable right from the start. Amy sent me a photo later that evening and Sasha looked very happy. Hopefully Sasha and I will not have part again but if so I hope Amy's around. Thank you”
“Hannah is a exelent with dogs, a very loving ❤️ family, I'm very happy with her, she sent pictures and videos of my dog while I was on vacation 😀 she took very good care of my dog 🐕.”
“Kristina really enjoyed having Winston as a guest. She sent updates and pics, and he clearly was fully relaxed and happy in her care. I will use her again, and again, and again!!”
“Garrett and Monica are the BEST with our Koe. They’re so accommodating and love him like he is their own. Koe loves coming to stay at “Zeus’ house” and is always so happy to arrive. Thank you for all you both do!”
“Laura was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Gordy! It’s never easy leaving our dog with someone new, but she made us feel completely at ease from the start. She is kind, communicative and is clearly super good with animals! She took Gordy to the dog park and let him play and get some energy out! It’s obvious he had been loved and well looked after while we were away. We really appreciated the updates (with pictures and videos!) and the peace of mind she gave us throughout the stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!”
“Jennifer did a great job of taking care of our high energy pup Tucker! He came home happy and was tired which is unusual for him! We were happy to have her watching him for a weekend getaway and will use her services again in the future as needed.”
About: Hi, I’m Rachael! Owner of 3 dogs with my spouse and we love to take them camping, hiking, and out for adventures. I’ve had pets since I was a child and have taken care of animals since I was a teenager, pet sitting for family and friends when they vacationed. I worked as a vet technician for 6 years so I have experience administering medications orally and by injection. Whether it’s pet sitting, dog walking, or stopping-in to check on your pet to let them out to potty or to feed them, I’d be happy to take care of your furry loved ones. I’m new to Rover and taking care of pets is what I love and enjoy. I’m currently a stay-at-home dog mom, giving me plenty of time and availability to take care of your pet too. I’m available for pet sitting, dog walks, and drop-ins. Having 3 dogs at home, I understand how important it is to make sure they feel loved and safe. I will send you daily pictures and let you know how they are doing.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Jacksonville is $50

Serena and her family were so sweet and helpful with caring for our fluff. I'm recommending she hook up with the local Inn we stayed at so that guests could have an option to leave their pets with Serena when they attend the Brit shows or perhaps go wine tasting during the day.
Serena was very easy to work with when we needed a quick 24H stay for our pup Eli. She was always prompt to respond prior to the boarding time and we got updates during his stay. She made us feel comfortable that our sweet boy would be well loved and cared for with her family. Would definitely use her again!
Patricia is an amazing sitter. I came from WA, drove to Medford, then had to board my dog Blue while I flew to Phoenix, AZ and drove back to Medford with my Dad. Many things went wrong on the trip, but not once did I have to worry about Blue at all. Patricia sent me pictures and updates to let me know he was doing okay, but even without those, I knew she would take good care of him. You could tell she loved animals and was responsible. I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind she brought me. Thank you again Patricia!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Jacksonville on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 105 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Jacksonville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Jacksonville 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 Jacksonville.
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 Jacksonville 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 OR 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.
