“Paige was absolutely awesome since we met prior to the booking; She gave me great updates during the drop in sessions, and has great communication. 10/10 :) THANK YOU, PAIGE!!”
“Olivia was very sweet and caring. She was on top of everything and took such great care of our 3 pups. We were a little nervous at first but after the first visit we felt at ease. She was in constant communication and took lots of photos.”
“Katelyn is amazing!! My cat is usually shy with strangers but he had no problem warming up to her. I am so glad I no longer have to worry about my cat when I go on vacation!”
“Hazen is the best. I have two male cats and they fell in love with her. Hazen sat and played with my boys each day she was here, she not only empties the cat boxes she swept up the cat litter that was on the floor. I would definitely use her again.”

“Bianca was excellent in how she communicated with us about our boys. She’s excellent and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to care for ur fur babies as her own”
“Our little 7 month old kitten Wooly Bully loved Brittney. They played, romped and snuggled. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him. We look forward to knowing he's having fun when we are traveling in the future. I highly recommend Brittney for any pet parents going on a trip. We also appreciated your communication and cute photos. Thank YOU!”
About: As a proud pet owner, I have two rescue cats, a senior Australian Kelpie–Australian Shepherd rescue mix, and a three-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, loved, and entertained while you are away. Whether you are traveling, working, on vacation, or simply need help for a few hours, I will treat your pets like part of my own family. I grew up on a farm in Gilroy, California, surrounded by animals. Throughout both my childhood and adult life, I have remained actively involved in fostering and rescuing animals. I have fostered kittens, cats, dogs, and puppies, helped with Golden Retriever rescue, and raised and trained guide-dog puppies in hopes they would graduate and be placed with someone who was blind or deaf. Because my mom is deaf, service animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, rescue animals, anxious pets, and animals with different personalities and energy levels. I can help with basic puppy training, medication administration, senior mobility support, feeding, walks, playtime, litter-box cleaning, and plenty of love and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I also enjoy taking dogs on long walks and keeping pets active and entertained based on their individual needs. I am happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your baby is happy and in good hands. Transportation may also be available upon request, and I am always willing to discuss any special routines or care instructions your pet may need. I own a plant business and work primarily from home, giving me a flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, supervision, feeding, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. In my home, pets receive close supervision, safe introductions, and a fully fenced backyard for monitored outdoor time. I follow each owner’s feeding schedule, medication instructions, training preferences, and household rules to keep their pet’s routine as familiar as possible. My dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I never force interactions between animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the home, secure doors and gates, clean up after each visit, and carefully follow all written instructions. I provide photo updates and communicate promptly about eating, bathroom habits, behavior, or anything unusual so owners always know how their pet is doing.
“Nathalie did a fantastic job watching our 4 cats for 10 days. She truly went above and beyond with her daily visits, and it was so comforting knowing they were in such great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Olivia was awesome taking care of my little Leopoldo while I was away ❤️ She is super reliable and responsive and I definitely recommend her and hope to have her persisting him again in the future :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, starting with my own Puggle, Zoey. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me. I cared for my 16-year-old Puggle who had diabetes, so I’m very familiar with administering medications and making sure medical needs are always a top priority. I also have a special place in my heart for dogs with anxiety and take pride in creating a calm, comforting environment where they can feel secure. I’ve also been working in the pet care industry for a while as I pursue my goal of becoming a professional dog groomer, so I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. At home, I have my own 2 year old Chihuahua, who is my little baby. I would love the opportunity to share that same love, patience, and plenty of cuddles with your fur baby. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! My schedule is very flexible at this time. Please contact me so that we can schedule a time to meet your pet care needs. I look forward to getting to know your fur baby in the future! I have a dog friendly home. We have the ability to meet your pet’s various medical needs. Our home is filled with cuddles, love, and treats!
About: I have taken care of dogs for more than 15 years! Many family, friends, and neighbors throughout the years haven’t trusted me with their fur babies. I would love to give you peace of mind when you are out by taking care of your animals like they are my own. (I also love to send you with pics of your pets while you are gone.) I’m currently working part time (3 days a week) and going to school one day a week for 4.5 hours. I will have plenty of time to hang out, care for, and play with your pet! I make sure to closely follow all the instructions for caring for your pet in your home! It’s helpful for me to come meet you and your pet before staying/caring for them!
“Very communicative which is great as a pet owner, reliable, and most importantly both cats were happy to get their bellies on display from the regular photo updates showing that they had great trust in Weronika”
About: I’m a big animal lover! I’ve been watching pets since I was in middle/highschool. I’m interested in boarding pets, pet sitting, dog walking! I’ve had really good luck working with shy dog and helping them to be more comfortable around people. I work part time so i’d love to do weekends and early during the day on weekdays! I’m flexible with dates when it comes to house sitting. I have a large fenced in yard and two living rooms and lots of bedrooms for your pet to explore! If your pet it more comfortable staying at home, I can also come stay in your home!
“Lexy was so helpful with dropin visits for our 2 cats. Her check-ins were punctual and appreciated the communications. Even though our cats were timid or scared, it was great that she gave them space to calm down. We we're happy to come home to happy pets and tidy pet areas. We would not hesitate to book with her again! Thank you for a great job.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Augustine
Can’t say enough great things about Sarah! She came to our house before our trip to meet our dog and for us to run through everything with her. She went above and beyond, sent many photos, and gave such great detailed updates! She really eliminated any worries about our girl while we were away!
Mike did such an incredible job with our girl. We came home and she was clearly very well taken care of. We loved receiving the videos and he gave her extra love than we had even expected. 10/10 recommend for a trustworthy, kind, loving sitter. Also, is great overall with dogs since she is reactive to other pups.
Julie was a great first experience with Rover! She was very nice, professional, and even took the time to meet our dog before our trip. She arrived right on schedule and made sure our pup was fed and given her medication exactly as instructed. She was incredibly sweet and patient with our nervous dog, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saint Augustine stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Saint Augustine choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Saint Augustine with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
