“Samantha was so easy to work with! My dachshunds were super comfortable, even cuddling. They seemed happy being able to go outside hanging out with the other fur animals. She made us feel welcome.”
“I love them for my puppy! I got updates very often, wasn’t hard at all to get in contact. She knows how to handle dog very well! My dog came back healthy and happy thanks to them! The really helped me while i was away on a business trip. She had other dogs so my dog was able to socialize and be able to get all his energy out bc he’s playing with other dogs! He also picked up a couple of good habits while he was over there! I DEFINITELY TIPPED & I will be returning if i ever need a sitter !”
“Definitivamente la mejor Sitter que pudimos encontrar para Lexie. Siempre nos mantuvo informados sobre Lexie, fotos hermosas y todos los miembros de la familia se portaron super cariñosos con nuestra Lexie. Gracias mil Olga.”
“I would definitely recommend Jerald. We let me older Westin with him for 9 days. I received updates through out the week and my dog was content upon pick up. Will definitely use Jerald again.”
“This was our second time using them. They are wonderful with updates and photos! Ollie loves his time with her boys as well! We will definitely be booking them again for any future vacations! 🥰”
“Alain was an extraordinary caregiver to our dog. He sent videos every day, showed her extra care and attention, and he made us feel very at ease during our time away. I highly recommend him!”
“My dog means everything to me, and leaving her is very difficult. I went to see Krista and she seemed to be right person to watch Maggie. I was wrong, she was an outstanding person. Maggie is a dog that needs people and returns that affection with her love. Thanks Krista for taking such great care of her. I will not hesitate to use you in the future. Yours truly Don, Kelley, and of coarse Maggie May.”
“Elaine was great! Her place and clean and comfy perfect for the pups! She sent great photos and updates daily. Our pups loved playing with her daughter as well! Would definitely book again!”
“Jason was wonderful with our dog, Sparky! He was caring, thoughtful, and enthusiastic! He sent us updates, videos, and photos multiple times throughout the day! Sparky interacted with his dog, Cooper, like they were best friends! In fact, we have agreed to allow Sparky and Cooper to maintain their friendship through playdates on a regular basis! We would definitely have Jason care for Sparky again should the need arise and recommend him to anyone who needs a reliable and excellent boarder for their dog!”
“Theresa was very caring and loving with our dog Frankie. She accommodated us last minute and couldn’t have been nicer about helping us switch our Frankie into her care and making us feel comfortable with it-as this was our first time using Rover and Theresa. She updated us with videos and pictures so we knew Frankie was doing well. And when Frankie’s eye issue flared up, she made a trip to his Vet to get more medication!! We highly recommend Theresa and her husband! If you’re looking for someone to love and care for your dog when you are away and your pup needs a place to stay-she’s your person!!”
“Angela took care of Lucky on very short notice and I’m so grateful she was able to help. She sent pictures and updates, made sure he was fed, and got him out for walks. Communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear Lucky was in good hands. I’d absolutely book with Angela again!”
“This was my first time to use Rover. I was pretty skeptical that I would find the right person for the long stay needed. HOWEVER, I could NOT have found a better match than Stephanie and her family! From the start, she made the process so easy. I met with her before the drop off and immediately felt at ease, a weight lifted off my shoulders. Knowing my dogs would be left in good care made me feel so much better about leaving my them behind. They had never stayed with anyone nor at an unfamiliar home before this stay. Stephanie kept me updated and sent pics daily. I never worried about how they were doing or felt uncomfortable about them while I was away. After my pick up, I was sure my dogs would be excited to see me after a week of being away. BUT that was not the case, it was as if they were disappointed to be home with me after that stay!! I could tell, my dogs were treated very well and enjoyed the care Stephanie and her family provided my dogs. Although it took awhile for my dogs to come around after being home, it made me happy to know they felt comfortable with Stephanie! I highly recommend Stephanie for any pet services.”
“My dog is a Sr and takes meds and Karen was attentive to her pill schedule. I had written detailed instructions for my pups daily schedule and Karen understood because she had a dog a long time ago that took similar meds . She sent pix and texts. My dog was happy in Karen home when I returned . Big thanks !”
“If you want your furry babies to be loved when you "have to" go on vacation... this is who you need to contact. Absolutely, the best. We had a quick meet and greet before our scheduled date and they were so accommodating. Both Callie and Maverick were so happy to be in their company. Already planning another vacation so our doggies can go to Laura and Evan's house.”
“Pablo (and Javier) were the greatest care-givers our beagles could ever ask for! They were so easy and pleasant to communicate with, sent lots of happy updates of our pups while we were away, and they made sure our old doggies got all their medicines and treatment they needed. They also bathed our dogs and they were so happy with Pablo and Javier when we picked them up— even though they normally are terrified of strangers! LOOK NO FURTHER - this is who you want to entrust your sacred doggies with! 10/10!”
About: I have and have taken care of large breed dogs like Pitbull's and Cane Corso's for over 9 years now. I have been through multiple trainings and interactive settings with both. I also have a cat I have cared for over 10 years. I have taken care of friends and family's animals previously. I work from home Monday-Friday, therefore I have a lot of flexibility. I also can make morning/lunch/ and afternoon check ins due to work flexibility. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I provide daily walks, regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding according to their schedule, and lots of one-on-one attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’ll follow any special instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 James City home-away-from-home, 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 James City.
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 James City 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 , 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 .
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.
