About: I have a soft spot for all animals and treat all pets as if they were my own. As I grew up around many types of animals since I was a kid, I know how much they mean to us. I make sure they are taken care of and loved! I have full time availability currently. I am usually up around 5/6am so I am happy to do early mornings. I am up for late night drop ins as well if needed. I do not have a yard but I love to take the dogs to parks and walk around. If they are potty trained, I am more than happy to keep them in my house.
“Brittney was great, dog seemed very happy. My husband who did drop off-pick up said Brittney was “Professional, responsible, flexible and very nice.” Many thanks!”

I stay busy with volunteering, sports a nd friends and family but I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and willing to help. I live in a great condo complex with tons of pet owners and a 2 mile walking path with bags available at every building Very pet friendly!
“Katharine was kind and sent me pictures throughout Trinity's visit. Her dog, Bosley, welcomed Trinity and they hit it off immediately. I wish we lived closer because I would not hesitate having my girl stay there again!!!”

About: I am a single mom of a 20 old daughter who thinks she is a dog whisper and has never met a dog she doesn’t love. We love all types of dogs. I work full time and get home around 6pm. I am off every weekend and looking to earn some extra income. I am very honest and dependable. I’ve always had some type of animal in my life. I have a black mouth cur mix at home named Emory as well as a cat named Whiskey. Emory loves playing with other dogs and whiskey doesn’t mind them if they don’t mind him. I have experience with a wide range of dog breeds. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur baby and or babies!! I work full time, but have open availability on the weekends. I usually enjoy going out for walks and taking advantage of the fresh air so figured why not make a little extra income and provide love and care for your fur baby at the same time! I do live in an apartment complex but I can still provide leashed walks or available to take them to the dog park if permitted!
About: Hi, I’m Shawna — a dedicated and experienced animal caregiver with a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I had the unique opportunity to live on a farm for several years, where I cared for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigeons, bunnies, goats, sheep, cows, deer, and horses. That experience taught me not only how to care for animals, but how to truly understand their behaviors, needs, and personalities. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a shy rescue, or a senior pet needing extra attention, I provide calm, attentive, and dependable care tailored to each animal. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I specialize in providing attentive, one-on-one care for pets in their own home environment, ensuring comfort, consistency, and peace of mind while you’re away. What You Can Expect: • Consistent, reliable care • Clear communication and updates • A calm, patient approach with animals of all temperaments • Experience with multiple species and environments • Respect for your home and routines 🐶 Services Offered: • Drop-in visits • Dog walking • House sitting • Pet companionship and care while you’re away I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet(s) and make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to travel to a clients home 7 days a week. If I am available, I could accommodate last minute care, overnights or long term pet/housesitting. I have a pet care contract that the client fills out with any special requests and details regarding the pets care, medication if applicable, allergies, emergency contact info etc... I have glowing recommendations from past and present clients upon request. I pride myself on being a very trustworthy person and can give the homeowner/"pet parent" the peace of mind that their "castle" is truly in trusting hands. I treat every clients home as I would my own.
About: I have had dogs all through out my life for the past 20 years going from puppies to adult and I have learned to appreciate the way they communicate I am currently working full time from home and caring for additional dogs besides my own is not an issue at all. The more the merrier. I have a fenced in back yard where the doggies can roam free safely and can explore as much of the outside as they want.

“This was the first time I left my little girl Sophie with a dog sitter. We had done a meet and greet before and I could tell that Liza and her family were dog lovers. They were very happy and loving with her and she loved the attention which she is very used to. I already have a 2 day stay booked for this weekend and feel I can leave her without worry. I’m so happy I found Liza!”


“Ashley was so great with our puppy! We received so many pictures and updates throughout the day. She even helped us with some basic training for our pup, and we can already see huge improvements today after we picked her up. Will be using Ashley again!! Great experience, and the pup came back TIRED, so I know she had a good time, too :)”


“Eric and April were fantastic! We booked last minute and they were amazing. Excellent communication. Bella, Baylee and Milo got tons of doggie attention! I can’t say enough great things about this experience. Will definitely book again!”


About: I’ve cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up, we had a variety of dog and cat breeds, so I’m comfortable working with animals of different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I also have law-enforcement K9 experience from my time with the Las Vegas Deputy Marshals, where I served as a K9 agitator/decoy and participated in controlled training exercises with working dogs and their handlers. That experience gave me additional insight into canine behavior, body language, handling, and the importance of remaining calm and attentive around dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for many different types of pets and understand that every animal has its own routine and personality. Whether your dog is energetic and needs plenty of activity, prefers a slower pace, or simply wants companionship while you’re away, I’ll follow your instructions and make their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m dependable, active, safety-conscious, and attentive. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated so you can feel confident knowing they’re being well cared for. Our family will care for your pets as if they were our own. They will receive plenty of love, affection, and exercise in our large, fully fenced backyard Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I keep my Rover availability updated so I only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week based on my schedule. I make every effort to maintain your pet’s normal feeding, exercise, bathroom, and medication schedule so their routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away. Safety is always my first priority. My background includes law enforcement and working with a K9 unit, which gave me experience reading canine behavior, body language, and recognizing situations before they become problems. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep dogs properly leashed and secured, and never take unnecessary risks with unfamiliar animals or environments. In your home, I respect your property and your pet’s established routine. You can also expect regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Chloe was excellent with our nervous dog! He has separation anxiety and takes a bit to warm up to strangers. He did great with Chloe and we’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”


About: Care for 30-60 pounds doggies. My dogs are senior dogs , mellowed, very easy going. May not be a good fit for a young puppy younger then 2. At this time I am only able to accept doodles due to my work. I work with food, bake all kinds of pastries and breads. Only non shedding pups at this time as I cannot have any hair around my kitchen. I am home most of the time so potty breaks can be as often as needed. My pets are my children. When asked how many kids do I have I say 4. Two human babies and 2 animal babies. My pups are very gentle with my children and I would like to continue with such puppies/ guests. I have been around dogs all of my life. Grew up in Poland with family who had farms and all kinds of animals. Dogs were always around. Playing with them was part of growing up and having fun. Now I have 2 sheepadoodles (Lilly and Bella) who are wonderful companions. They are big, furry, loving addition to my family. Cannot imagine living without them. My 4 legged babies can get me smiling on a bad day. I care about them as much I as do about my human children. They absolutely love humans, and get along with other dogs.. I am home almost all the time so your dogs will not feel lonely. Also doggies are allowed to run freely , there are no cages. Our yard is fenced and pretty big with toys to play with. I would like to take dogs between 30-60 pounds. just because mine are 50 and 70 pounds and by my experience they do play better. I take only 1 guest pup at the time so the experience is more personal. Also that helps me to keep all of them safe .... there are 4 cameras in our house so I can have an eye on my furry babies even when I am grocery shopping or running errands. Safety and love is what I like to share. I had taken a break from Bording due to personal issues. When pregnant with second child someone smashed into my car. Don’t remember anything. Woke up in a hospital couple of days later. High risk pregnancy. My daughter is 6 now and I decided to resume taking a doggie companion. It is very important I only have gentle dogs guests. Especially Gentle with children around. Thank you for understanding. I am stay home mom. If I go out it won’t be longer than 3 -4 hours most of the Time. I have been stay home mom for 10 years now. I have a fenced yard and 2 doggies to keep your pup company. If I step out it is for couple of hours only. I have 4 cameras in my home to check on them as often as I want to.
“Joanna was fantastic! As soon as I arrived, I knew it was a great fit! Joanna and her family were fun and engaging and they took such great care of Junior! They have a huge yard and so much to do. Once I picked Junior up and we got in the car, he was out like a light! He’s still sleeping. He had a blast! We will definitely be using Joanna again soon.”


About: As a dedicated pet parent to my dog, Bagel, and two cats, I understand firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. With years of experience navigating multiple PCS moves, I’ve become skilled at helping animals adjust to new environments and routines. I bring that same patience, love, and reliability to every pet I care for—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing comfort while you're away. I treat every pet like my own and ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s not just a task, it’s a lifestyle! As a cat parent myself, I'm used to feeding schedules, litter box duty, playtime, and the occasional 3 a.m. zoomies. I structure my days around the needs of the pets I care for, making sure they get the attention, consistency, and love they deserve. Whether it’s stopping by for a visit, giving meds, or just being a calming presence, I always make time for quality care and connection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep things calm, consistent, and just like you left them. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether it’s scheduled walks and playtime for dogs, or quiet companionship and litter box duty for cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, and giving each pet the individual attention they need to feel safe and happy. I always treat your home with respect and your pets like family—whether that means tug-of-war in the yard, a slow stroll with a senior pup, or a cozy cuddle session with a shy kitty.
“Sonia is great with dogs and very responsive when messaging. She is also accommodating to your schedule and is willing to work with you. Overall, I'll be leaving my guy with her on the regular.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saint Augustine
Katie was easy to work with. She sent pictures and took Cooper on two walks, and the last one caught them in a rainstorm. They were drenched! Cooper loved it and I loved how she dried him off and brought him to the truck so we wouldn't have to get out in the rain. She really went above and beyond. I highly recommend Katie!

We had such a great experience! This was a pretty last-minute booking while we were visiting St. Augustine, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with from the start. Clara was well cared for and happy when we picked her up, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out for the day. Communication was smooth, and we really appreciated her flexibility—especially when we ended up running late due to traffic. She was very understanding and kind about it, which meant a lot. We would absolutely trust her with Clara again and highly recommend her to anyone needing reliable, compassionate care!

Jessica was an amazing dog sitter for Mica! She took her to the park, sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day, and it was clear that Mica was getting lots of love and attention. It gave me such peace of mind seeing how happy she was while we were away. Mica had an awesome time and came home relaxed, happy, and completely exhausted from all the fun she had. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog like their own. 🐾😊

Linda was awesome with Bugsy. I can not thank her enough for taking care of her. I notified Linda a couple hours before, looking for someone to watch Bugsy. It was on short notice. She responded promptly, and said she was available to help. I reccomended Linda to anyone who needs a dog sitter. She sent pictures, and took Bugsy to the dog park. Bugsy was very happy. Thank you again for being a fabulous dog sitter.

Brittany and her family were so welcoming to Daryl! Brittany planned the introduction to make sure everyone was comfortable. She sent multiple pictures and updates to reassure us that Daryl was doing well. Highly recommend, and we will definitely hope to rebook when we are in the area again.

Catherine was amazing to us! She went above and beyond to take care of our Chaka, and was extremely helpful to us as well, as we are visiting the area. Her home is charming, and conveniently located close to the town, and very easy to get to. 100% recommended!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Saint Augustine is $35 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $44 per day. 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Saint Augustine. 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 Saint Augustine 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.
As of October 2026, there are 582 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of FL. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
