“Aura and Anthony were so sweet and took such great care of my Luna. They are kind people and you can tell they are animal lovers!! It make me feel at ease knowing they’re taking care of my girl.”
“This was the first extended stay with Sarah. Our Yorkie mix did great. Sarah’s background as a vet tech gave us confidence in his care. I know our Yorkie had a good time because we was super happy and excited when we arrived to pick him up and he was calm and relaxed on the drive home. With other sitters, the drive home he has been anxious with heavy panting. Thank you Sarah for your comforting care!”
“We needed a last minute dogsitter for our puppy while we left town for a few days. Christina not only was willing to watch our dog on a last minutes notice but took the best care of him! He came back calm, happy, and relaxed. We knew he felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for such great care of our dog, Christina! We can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life and started professionally pet sitting about 10 years ago when I retired. I have a fenced yard and can also walk your dogs throughout in my neighborhood if it’s under 50 lbs (for safety reasons). I’m 75 and am home during the day to cuddle your furry babies! Most days, I’ll go out to run errands or go to the gym. I like to take a walk in the morning by myself around my neighborhood. I’m at home the rest of the day usually unless I have an appointment. I have a fenced backyard and a screened in porch. I don’t require a crate for your dog or cat as long as they are potty trained.
“Such a great experience with Mariana. Great communication before and during this visit! I can tell Gunner had a great time and came home exhausted! Thank you for taking such excellent care of him!”
“Rebecca and Michael were amazing with Luna! They were super sweet and always kept me updated. I could tell Luna was really well cared for and loved. I’d definitely trust them again!”
“I have used this sitter twice for my rescue dog Petey. Both times I had excellent service to include one time I had a short notice need. My pup is happy with drop-off and pick-up and all my questions amd communication is responded to promptly. I am thrilled to have a sitter I can rely on after recently moving to the state. I will definitely be making this my go to sitter!”
“Taqueria was super good with my baby boy! She was responsive and kind. Reassured me he was in good hands and took pictures and kept me updated. I would highly recommend her. She is super patient and understanding. I will be using her for future boarding. Home also was nice and clean🙃”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Augustine
I cannot recommend Mariana enough! From the moment we met, it was clear how caring and professional she is. She watched are sweet Nina, and treated her like family. I had total peace of mind the entire time because she sent daily photos and updates. When we returned home, our sweet Nina was happy and relaxed. I will absolutely be booking with Mariana again!
Rylea was absolutely wonderful with Honey! She took her to the beach, checked in with me multiple times, and made me feel so at ease while I was away. She’s incredibly sweet and it was clear Honey was so well cared for. Five stars all around, will definitely be using her again!
Katie did a fantastic job caring for my dog for doggie day care (8-4). She was on time for both drop off and pick up. She kept me informed throughout the day and sent great pictures. Katie provides a work from home, no dog, no kids house which is perfect for my spoiled older terrier. The yard was a nice bonus. Katie can dog-sit my dog any time.
Kat and MaMa Joyce took excellent care of our Lil Zeus. Great daily communication with photos included. We didn’t have to worry at all. Great caregiver hands down. Truly appreciate your kindness and compassion towards our Baby. We will definitely stay in touch. If you’re looking for care, comfort and compassion for your fur babies without worry. Kat is the best choice ever!
Kaylyn was terrific!! I had to be in Saint Augustine for a wedding and I needed a place for my beautiful pup to stay. He had a great time and I felt so comfortable leaving him at her home. And you will too! If we ever back in town, she’ll be the first person I called to watch my dog!
Once again GREAT experience with Brittany! Our dog just loves going there, and receives exceptional care, he always comes home happy! Brittany is fantastic at sending pic's and texts to keep us updated about what Teddy Bear's doing, if he's eating well, etc. We never have to worry, she also answers any questions quickly that we may have. She is without a doubt the best Pet Sitter we have ever found on ROVER, and WE highly recommend her for your Pet Sitting in St Augustine area!!! We have and will definitely use her services again. It's a great comfort to know a very responsible, caring , loving person is watching our dog Teddy Bear! THANK YOU SO MUCH BRITTANY

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 768 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Augustine. 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 Saint Augustine 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 Saint Augustine 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 Saint Augustine 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 Saint Augustine.
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 Saint Augustine 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.
