About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have also taken care of many of my friends’ pets! I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’m caring, patient, and responsible, and I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m currently a college student, but my schedule is really flexible! I only have one hour of class on Mondays, so I have plenty of free time to care for your pets, take them on walks, play with them, and give them lots of attention! I’ll make sure your pets are always comfortable, safe, and well taken care of! I’ll follow their usual routines, make sure they have everything they need, and give them lots of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away!
About: Throughout the course of my life I have been responsible for feeding, bathing, and walking dogs ranging from cocker spaniel to Maltese to my current dachshund mix Lunes. Whether it be a leisurely stroll to sniff some bushes or a quick jog to get the zoomies out, I take note of the importance of getting our babies outside. I currently focus on basic puppy commands like “sit” and “paw” as well as teaching how to love bath time. I am currently a PhD student at UF and am free to focus on the highest quality pet care when I am not in class. I am available for boarding if your pet is friendly with other dogs! During boarding I can easily crate up to a medium sized dog if need be. I take my own dog on walks in the morning, evening, and night, but can be flexible with yours during boarding and house sitting. If you have a larger dog in need of crating, just provide one and that works too! If not, they are free to roam around my apartment and play. My little guy is my pride and joy, so I treat him just as I would any other member of my family and I’ll do the same for yours.
“I had a last-minute trip to town, and Esteisy was incredibly accommodating. My dog had a great time at her place, and I really appreciated how thorough she was with questions beforehand and follow-ups. I would absolutely recommend her.”
“These two are simply awesome. They loved my dog and my dog loved them. They are very diligent, experienced with animals, and very friendly. The accommodations were wonderful highly recommend.”
“Diane provided excellent service and care for my fur baby, Kingston. She provided updates via text with pictures and videos. She cared for him as if he was one of her own. He had plenty of space to play and run around. I am pleased with her service and would use her again.”
“Daisy spent 15 days with Darby. She joined right in and did great! We were so happy to find a sitter that fit our needs. We will definitely use Darby again. She sent pictures and videos of Daisy chilling and playing with Wobee. The 2 dogs got along great.”
“Highly recommend Brittni! She was very professional, kept me updated everyday with pictures, messages, etc. She had my dog for 6 days!! I plan to book with her again in the future.”
“Ana was great!! It was our first time to kennel trip for an extended stay . I was worried about the heat and how he would handle being away from us. Her facility is wonderful and very clean, mostly shady with little kid pools for the dogs to cool off in. They have several extended outdoor time and nap times in an air conditioned building . And the pictures !!! I received several pics of Tripp on a daily basis, he was happy, happy. Will definitely return.”
“Tatiana and her family were a great fit for Holi. They provided her the lots of love and attention and she had a blast playing with the kids and pups. Tatiana was great with updates throughout the stay and was super responsive to any messages. We will for sure rebook with her in the future.”
“Maria ia awesome! We were very happy with Bella"s stay. Bella looked awesome when we picked her up and very excited. I recommend Maria to anyone looking for a great sitter. We will be using her in the future”
“Friendly service, nice location. Emily took the best care of our Knoxie. She sent us lots of updates and we could tell she was taking great care and attention to our little puppy. We would definitely ise her again. Thanks Emily!”
“Kaylee was fantastic with Freya! Leaving your dog with someone new is always a little nerve wracking, but she put my mind at ease immediately. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates with photos throughout the stay. It was clear from the photos that Freya was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.”
About: I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior pets. I’ve fostered animals through the Humane Society, administered basic medications, followed feeding routines closely, and prioritize patience, safety, and affection. I’m attentive, responsible, and truly treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m flexible on weekends, plan my schedule around pet needs, and make sure walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins are never rushed. I prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment at all times. In a client’s home, I follow instructions carefully, keep doors secured, and respect the pet’s routine. I always monitor pets closely, avoid unsafe situations, and communicate updates so owners feel confident and at ease.
“I could tell Olive have a wonderful time with Jonathan. She enjoyed being a couch potato and he comforted her during the storms. Will definitely reach out in the future for boarding if needed!”
About: **ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** Hello, my name is Jyll!😊 Proud pet parent of cats and a border collie. I have had experience pet sitting for over a decade and would like to offer my services to the GNV community. I’m here to help you with caring for your pets whether you’re getting ready to go enjoy some time off, got caught up at work, or even sometimes don’t want to get out of bed (we’ve all been there). I am a reliable animal lover who would love the opportunity to take care of your fur babies. I offer the following services: - Cat/Dog Drop-in Visits 🐱🐶 - Dog Walking 🐕 - House sitting 🏠 - Boarding (varies based off pet’s temperament due to having my own pets) ~~~~~~~ A LITTLE ABOUT ME I have been surrounded by animals my whole life and have owned BOTH cats & dogs. My experience ranges from raising one-week-old kittens to taking care of senior dogs that need oral medication. I currently have four cats and a border collie who give me meaning (as well as question my sanity!) every day. And, since they live rent-free (the biscuit factory has been closed for the season), I am looking to share my support with you and your lovely pet(s)! I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule. Please feel free to message me to get started, and I'm excited to meet your fur baby. How can you ensure a great experience for your pet? It all begins with communication! I will actively listen to you explain your pet's routine and ensure to not stray from it. The more details, the better! The biggest stress is YOU being gone; the least I can do is ensure a consistent routine so it is not as impactful on their health. Oh—and LOTS of play time and cuddles!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 328 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waldo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
97% of sitters in Waldo 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 Waldo 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 Waldo.
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 Waldo. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Waldo 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.
