“Sarah was wonderful. We left town for a week and I was nervous because Bella had the same sitter for the last 10 years. She's now 16 and not used to new people. I didn't need to worry though Bella was just fine. She fit right in with Sarah and her kids. She was very patient with her. Bella requires a couple of meds and she had no problem with that. Sent periodic updates and pictures. I'm very happy and grateful. I'll definitely use Sarah again!”
“We were going on a long trip and I new a kennel wouldn't work so after reviewing on Rover I norrowed it down to 3 sitters we met Rachel at a dog park to see if the dogs got along then I took Max for a playdate but when I picked him up I could tell how much they love dogs and how Max like them booked the date on the way to drop him off he got very excited well he loves her and her family they truly love your dog and Max and their dog are best buds Rachel is my go to plus I will doing some playdates so the pups can have some fun”
“She was a great last minute sitter! We traveled to Florida with our dog and he didn’t adjust well to the hotel, so she kept my dog while we went to a concert. She responds quickly, and her family is great! She has a loving dog of her own and the dogs had a great time playing!”
“I was super nervous to leave my puppy with a new sitter but Sonia and her family helped to ease my worries. She communicated thoroughly by giving daily updates and sending pictures of my puppy. It’s clear through the photos and updates that he was being loved and well taken care of.”
About: I’ve had dogs since i was a child and now currently two of my own. Love to play and run around with my german shepherd and staffy mixed breed. I am currently a stay at home mom and just trying to help make a few extra dollars for my family. My son has appointments two days a week so i maybe a little later those days but I have a pretty flexible schedule. I want to make your fur baby comfortable while you are away at work or traveling. You let me know what makes your pup comfortable while your gone and i will help them through.
“Rebecca and Michael were amazing! I had no worries while my fur baby was staying with them. They sent me lots of pictures of their activities and always made me feel at ease. Would highly recommend them!”
“Haley was amazing! Leaving your best friend with a new person can be unnerving, but Haley made it so easy and comfortable, I can't say enough great things about the experience. Haley took Mulligan for 2 mile walks, played catch, let him explore the pool, baked and sent home a package of healthy dog cookies, and sent photos/videos consistently throughout each day as the activies ensued! I felt like Mulligan was in the best care and he truly felt at home and loved while we were away. I'd say the value of Haley's service far exceeds the price, I feel so fortunate that she was affordable enough to leave Mulligan in such a wonderful environment. I'll definitely be sending Mulligan here again for another vacation ☺️ Thank you Haley!”
“We are repeat clients and are very grateful for the extra attention and care that Taqueria and her family gave Riley when she became unwell during our out of town trip. She is definitely a patient, caring and responsible!”
“Amazing dog sitter. They went above and beyond the service. Coco loved them. I was in an accident in my vacation and they were there to extend my stay. They are wonderful people and a beautiful baby. I didn’t expect the kindness that they showed.”
“I am so happy with Zoey and her care for Max during my 12 day trip. She offered a meet and greet up front so I could see where Max would stay. It is a comfortable peaceful home where Max was given one on one attention. She sent me updates on his settling in the new environment. Zoey even sent pictures showing him on walks, playing and relaxing. All of this personal attention to Max gave me comfort in my time away. I know Zoey cared for Max as I would. I definitely would schedule Zoey for future vacations and highly recommend her to other pet families!”
“Mary is an awesome animal caregiver! She not only took care of our animals, but she also updated us almost every day with texts, pictures, and information. If you are looking for someone who loves animals, you need to pick Mary! Our girls were so happy and elated and well behaved and when we came home they were in such high spirits!!! I could keep writing on and on, but Mary is the best!!!”
“This was our second time using Brian and Ingrid to watch our dog. As we pulled up to the house, Marty cried and got excited to get out of the car. That let me know he enjoyed his stay last time (several months ago). Thank you for always taking such good care of him.”
About: I’ve taken care of Pugs, Boston terroirs, Pit bulls, Schnauzers, Shih Tzus, Golden Retreiver, German shepherd, French bulldog, Poodles, Basset Hound, Border Collie & all sorts of rescue animals I work Monday-Friday. Im available after 3 pm. & available all times on the weekends. I won’t be available after 9 pm unless sitting at the house. I can only care for pets at the clients home, & can take them for walks and hikes depending the pet and with trust of owners. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to attend and be fully present to any pets & I am an active person that will give my full attention to any pet I host. I have a house with an unfenced yard but everything in my home is pet friendly & I have no kids or pets at the moment so all my attention will be on your fur baby! I enjoy going to dog parks when I dog sit or walks around the neighborhood.
“Lauren was absolutely fantastic with our two Golden's. With the booking itself, she was quick to respond on relatively short notice, and we were constantly updated with pictures and videos of how our babies were acclimating. My wife and I cannot say enough great things about how well they were taken care of. We will not hesitate to rebook with Lauren before our next trip. Bobby and Tracy”
“Catherine and her family were enjoyed to work with. I think my puppy came back better trained than when I dropped him off. I am planning on definitely using Katherine again. Highly recommended.”
“Carter did an amazing job with my dog and sent me tons of pictures throughout her day. She was extremely happy when I picked her up and we’ll definitely be using him again he is very thoughtful and really good with animals.”

Forget the dog, I want Traci to adopt ME for a staycation! Traci is absolutely lovely, and took amazing care of our Zeke, going above and beyond. He’s usually super shy in new places but I could tell from his expression in photos he was comfortable and having a great time! She took him to the beach, snuggled him, and gave him a true second home. We would love to book him another stay with Traci!
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.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Saint Augustine Beach can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Saint Augustine Beach 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 Beach.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saint Augustine Beach. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Saint Augustine Beach 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
