“Sarah was great! She took care of my Bella as if she was her own. Sarah is friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely use her again if/when the occasion arises. Thank you, Sarah!”
“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!!”
“Amazing!! Michelle stayed in contact my whole trip with messages and pics to brighten our day. She is amazing and such a beautiful person! Whenever we thought of trips where my pup wasn’t able to go we would decline now we have the comfort of having a contact! So grateful :)”
“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.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Heather and her family. I’m pretty sure our lab Maggie would have rather stayed with them and their golden Avery than come back home. Haha. She was easy to communicate with, sent us pictures and updates, even let us come and get Maggie and take her to the beach. Maggie took to her family immediately. We will definitely use her again if traveling to St Augustine.”
“Laura and her family are fantastic! I had never used Rover or left Brownie with a stranger, and she made the process so wonderful and was extremely communicative during the while process. She sent several photos throughout the day along with updates, so I never had to worry. Brownie was on a fun vacation too, and he can't wait until he's able to come back and play woth Holly.”
“Andrea was very accommodating and responded quickly with my last minute same day booking. She welcomed my fur baby to her home like he was already part of her family. It was my first time booking on Rover and with Andrea, and I am pleasantly happy about her taking great care of my dog. My dog even became buddies with her dogs and that was nice. I found her to be a nice person when I met her and I am happy that I found her on Rover. I look forward to booking with Andrea again in the future and I would 100% recommend her. She is great to work with especially on last minute notice.”
“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.”
“Kataryna communicated with us so well, even with our last-minute booking. She kept us updated the whole time and sent us lots of pictures of Skye. We could tell Skye was very loved and well taken care of there. We will definitely be back! ❤️🐶”
“Brenda was great. She comforted our dog Dalla dura stem by getting down with her in the middle of the night. She is very organized and takes excellent care. Will be using her again”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing with my fur babies. They had lots of fun. Plenty of room to run and instantly felt right at home. I am very particular about who cares for my babies when I unable to take them with me but, I did not feel uneasy with the love and care they were getting at all. She sent pics and communicated with me the entire time. I will definitely go to Abigail again in the event I need to be away again.”
“Cat took great care of our toy schnauzer, Toby. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. I knew he'd had a fun time with Cat and her little pug. Your fur babies are in good hands with her.”
“Andrea and her family boarded our dog Yeti for multiple nights, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Yeti got lots of walks, care, affection, and was truly treated like a member of their family for his stay. We would highly recommend, as such a warm and welcoming ‘home away from home’ for your pet!”

Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy home for their dog!”

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.
93% of sitters in Yelvington 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 Yelvington 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 Yelvington.
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 Yelvington. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Yelvington 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.
