“Sarah is of good personality, and has a sweet family. I believe she took good care of our dogs while we were away. It is comforting to know they are with someone throughout the day who is of good cheer, and seems genuine in her love of animals. Thank you Sarah for being flexible, cordial and professional.”
“Super great! One dog sitter. My Rosie got a lot of attention and hugs. She loved her walks. I would definitely use her again! I recommend her who needs one on one care. My Rosie is very spoiled. 😀”

“Danielle is amazing! She is a true gem who really understands and cares about dogs. I really appreciated her updates on how my pup was adjusting and her positive attitude. We will definitely be back!”
“I would definitely use Sarah as a pet sitter again! She made everything easy from start to finish. Great communication and very easy to work with. She sent multiple pictures during the stay. Also, updates on how the nervous pup was! For her to house both pups was SO helpful. Highly recommend.”
“We returned from our trip to 2 happy tails wagging and 2 very content pups... Natalie took excellent care of them and we're very happy with this as we did not want to book with the usual facilities where they're alone all night. We will definitely request Natalie's services again.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From drop off to pick-up the communication was perfect. The photos throughout my dogs stay were appreciated and kept me happy and comfortable knowing that he was safe and happy. The walks my dog went on with Angel and her son were so nice to see and how happy they all were. I will definitely be re-booking when it is needed and if Angel is available. Thank you so much for taking great care of my dog!”

“Eleanora and Marco were a pleasure to deal with. Their home is immaculate and they’re both extremely professional and trustworthy. They communicated daily with us and sent several videos and pics. We will definitely be boarding our dog with them again in the future!”
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.
“I cannot say enough about Michelle,. I have used other places to board my dog and was never happy with them. What a great experience. Rocky was really taken care of as if he was her own. She kept him for eight days and seven nights and I received pictures and videos every single day. What a relief to see how happy he was in real time. I had constant contact with her and could reach her with any questions at any time. Because Rocky has health issues, she administered medication and made sure that he was OK every day. I should also mention that her husband Phillip did drop in visits for my cat at my home in the same week. He also sent videos and pictures along with updates after each visit. The team effort made my week away from my babies so much easier. I couldn’t be more grateful. If you love your animals, the way I do, trust me Michelle is the person you should call. If I could give 10 stars, I would.”
“Maria is the best. My Lucy is with family when she stays with Maria. Just the fact that Lucy cries of happiness when she sees Maria, says it all. Her love for pets is evident. Her care goes above and beyond.”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every pet like family. I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, even over nights all while giving lots of love while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’d love to meet your furry friend! I currently work from home so it’s easier for me to naturally fit pet care into my daily routine. I plan my schedule so I can give pets the attention they deserve—whether that’s morning and evening walks, feeding times, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m used to building my day around making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, safe environment and always watch for any changes in behavior or needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I also respect their space and follow any specific instructions they provide so their pet feels secure in their familiar environment.
“Sabina, from first meeting on, was nothing but kind, warm, and responsive. She genuinely loves dogs and I knew right away she would be perfect to trust my sweet boy with. Sabina sent lots of pictures and updates, constantly checking in and making me feel secure that Charlie was being cared for and happy. She has been wonderful and when I picked up my guy, he was happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the playing. I will never use another sitter again as long as Sabina and her sweet family will have us as clients!”

Amelia and her family were wonderful with our 2yr old Golden Doodle Tula! Through our whole vacation trip she kept updating us with progress, pictures and videos. Adjusted and went out to get her more food when she was running low, and allowed her downtime when she needed it. First time sitter for Tula, and I’m glad that it was a great and lasting experience for her!
Sarah was professional, friendly, and reliable! She was able to accommodate a shifting the pick up time due to flight delays and it was awesome to have Abby in a home with a loving family where she was loved and cared for. I will be utilizing Sarah boarding services in the future!
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!
This is the first time I've left my dogs with Lorrie and I'll admit to being a little nervous. I was worried because my dogs get to come to work with me and are never alone for more than three or 4 hours at a time. Additionally, we were going to be gone 9 days and be out of the country. Finding someone who would take the dogs for that long was a bit of a challenge. Lorrie was very understanding and we had a meet and greet in her home so my dogs could meet her dogs. Note: she's got a beautiful fenced in backyard! Once that meeting went well, I booked a short afternoon stay so that my dogs could become more familiar with her and her dogs. They seem to have a good time so we confirmed our big trip. After we dropped the dogs off and all throughout the time we were gone, Lori sent pictures and on one occasion a short video. That communication was very much appreciated. When we got back and picked the dogs up she had given them a bath and had them ready to go. Thank you, Lorrie, for providing a safe and fun environment for our dogs. I would highly recommend you.
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!

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.
95% of sitters in Saint Augustine South 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 South 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 South.
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 South 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.
