“Phillip is a caring and conscientious person who took care of our pet like she was his own. Even though our cat is “Spicy” he worked with her to put her at ease and kept her in her own area for her comfort. It’s people like this that restore our faith in humanity”
“Aura and Anthony were wonderful to work and always were speedy to communicate with us. We loved getting pics through Gus’ stay. Gus loved spending time out on the farm and came home a happy and tired boy. We will definitely book again!”
“Samantha and her family gave my Riley lots of love and attention, even taking her to an event they went to!! She took her on walks and gave her lots of play time with another pup she watches during the week. I will definitely be booking again so Riley can get lots of loving when we go out of town!!”
“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!!!”
“Brenda was amazing with my 6 month lab. She was so accommodating and kept me updated his whole stay. He is very much a big puppy and still learning his manners but she was patient and understanding. You can tell she truly cares. I would definitely recommend Brenda for pet sitting.”
“What a blessing you are to my pups. Thanks for loving them as much as we do. 💕 They ran to you immediately and showered you with love. Dogs know who the pet lovers are. ❤️ Anabela kept me informed about how they were doing, backed up with pictures. I am definitely going to use her again..”
“We had been leaving our dog at Pet Paradise, but feel like he wasn’t getting the attention he needed. After our first meeting with Nycole we felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She sent several pictures and messages while he was staying with her. We felt as though she really did her best to make him feel loved and cared for. When we picked him up he was not overly excited to see us, which we consider a good thing! We are so happy to have found a safe place for our baby. We highly recommend Nycole.”
“Carter was awesome! My dog had a great time. I totally recommend Carter to anyone who needs their animals watched for any amount of time. I will be using his services again.”
“Louise took such great care of our dog! I especially love that she takes only one dog at a time, eliminating concerns about aggression between animals and ensuring my dog can only eat her prescription food. She took her on many walks, allowed her on the furniture and even let her sleep in bed with her. Highly recommend.”
“Gen and her family are incredibly kind, caring, and wonderful! I booked Layla with them for a week, and they took such great care of her. I felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands, and it was clear that she was well loved and cared for. I would definitely book with Gen again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy home for their dog!”
“Danielle was a wonderful dog sitter. She sent us pictures of our 2 labs every day which we really appreciated. She let us know an antic or two as well which if you know Labrador retrievers there is bound to be a playful antic every day. She even told us that she would be willing to babysit our fur babies again, which we are very grateful for! Thank you Danielle!!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life, starting with our family cat we got when he was just two weeks old and later our rescue German Shepherd. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience pet sitting rabbits and lizards, giving me a great deal of comfort with all kinds of pets! I previously volunteered at a cat rescue in St. Augustine and am looking forward to volunteering with the local humane society now that I can drive myself. Having cared for my own senior rescue dog until earlier this year, I know how to read body language and provide the gentle, individualized care pets need. I am also comfortable and confident administering topical, liquid, and pill medications to both dogs and cats having gained that experience from not only our pets, but also clients pets that I have cared for. Friends, neighbors, and clients trust me to treat their pets just like family. I complete my high school classes fully online, which gives me a wonderfully flexible schedule during the week for walks, drop-in visits, and daytime care. The only fixed times I am busy are on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:00 to 6:30 PM for orchestra rehearsals, but otherwise, I am open to fit right into your pet's routine unless I have any previous responsibilities or commitments. Keeping pets safe is my absolute top priority. Along with being a lifelong animal lover, I hold human certifications in things such as First Aid, BLS CPR, and babysitting safety, so you can feel completely at ease knowing a responsible, safety-minded person is looking after your home and pets. I also have my own reliable car to get around easily for appointments or emergencies, and I will always care for your pets with the same love and attention I gave my own.
“AC took very good care of my dog Coco. I had planned to leave him for 2 weeks but it ended up being 3 weeks. AC sent me some pics and kept me well informed . Coco enjoys his walks so I liked that she walked him. She kept in good communication with me and responded to any concerns I had. I hope to have AC board Coco again in the future as I feel Coco was very happy with AC and her family. AC does such a good job she definitely deserves a good tip. Thx AC!!! They even gave Coco a bath!!”

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.
93% of sitters in Shell Bluff 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 Shell Bluff 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 Shell Bluff.
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 Shell Bluff 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.

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.
