“I will definitely be boarding with Marina again in the future! She has amazing accommodations for the fur babies she’s house sitting, and I got so many pictures of my dog having an absolute blast. They have a gorgeous fenced in play pen specifically to use as a dog yard, and everything is so nicely kept.”
About: What sets me apart is my medical background and hands-on animal experience across a wide range of species. I worked veterinarian settings for 6-10 years, so I’m comfortable monitoring health changes, administering basic medications, and recognizing early signs of illness or distress. Safety and attentiveness come naturally to me. I also hold a Bachelors in agriculture, which gives me a strong understanding of animal behavior, nutrition, and proper husbandry. I regularly foster puppies and dogs, as well as cats and kittens, so I’m experienced with: • Potty training & crate training • Socialization and basic obedience • Bottle feeding & neonatal care • Senior pet comfort and mobility support Your pets won’t just be watched — they’ll be understood, monitored, and genuinely cared for like family. As a stay-at-home mom, my days are centered around caring for others — which makes pet visits a natural and dedicated part of my routine. I structure my schedule around reliable drop-ins, giving each pet calm, unhurried attention and consistent care throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules closely, refresh water, administer medications if needed, and provide attentive companionship tailored to each pet’s personality — whether that’s playtime, enrichment, quiet company, or extra cuddles. I’m respectful of your home, clean in my habits, and mindful of details. I send consistent updates with photos so you can feel fully at ease while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, relaxed pet and a home just as you left it.
“This was my first time ever using the Rover app and I was nervous to find someone who would treat my dog as if he was home. Rebekah was absolutely amazing. She was kind and really treated my dog as if he was her own. She has 2 dogs of her own and although they are much bigger than my dog, they got along great. I would book her again!”
“Valerie was amazing! We came to Panama City on vacation to see our grandbaby & Valerie watched our doggie. She is so nice & has the absolute best backyard for the dogs to run around. The yard is totally fenced in & very secure even for the littlest dogs. I talked to her on the phone prior to our visit since an in person meet & greet wasn’t possible. She made me feel very comfortable & showed me a video of where Daisy would be & of her backyard. Valerie’s dogs were very friendly with Daisy & Daisy had a really great time. She was exhausted when we picked her up. I highly recommend Valerie if you want your doggie loved & pampered”
“Reya is amazing! I left my dog with her for 2 weeks, and I have never felt so reassured and comfortable. This isn't something I've done often and was so hard for me to leave Woody for 2 weeks, but Reya was so patient and it was so obvious she cared. Will 100% book with her again and recommend her to anyone who wants a trusted and caring person to look after their dog.”
“Tracey was awesome! She made sure Johnny was comfortable and sent me pictures with updates throughout my time away. Johnny can be a little difficult and clingy so I appreciated Tracey dealing with that and go that extra mile to make him comfortable! Highly recommend her to watch your fur babies if needed.”
“Our poodles stayed with Cathryn for 4 days/3 nights and seemed to have enjoyed their stay. Yogi got some big dog playtime in and would be happy to visit again. I usually travel with him but this was a girl’s birthday trip to Vegas, so… Thanks so much Cathryn. I don’t trust just anybody to care for our boys and you did a great job!”
“We were looking for someone close by our house in Shoreline and someone who has a dog so that our we found Niko. Our seemed to had a good time during his stay, Niko sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated”
“Cheri took care of our Goldendoodle Sadie while we were on vacation. This was the first time leaving Sadie and I was very nervous to leave her with someone new. She has separation anxiety when when she is away from me. Cheri talked to me over the phone prior to booking and set my mind at ease. Cheri has experience dealing with high anxiety dogs multiple times. I chose Cheri knowing that Sadie would be with someone in her home most of the time. Drop off was a smooth transition for us and she assured us Sadie was in good hands. I received several pictures, videos, and messages updating us on how she was adjusting. It only took Sadie a few days to be comfortable. I was shocked how well she did adjust. Cheri and her family loved Sadie like one of their own. She got to sleep with them and they did everything needed to make her comfortable. I highly recommend Cheri if you are in her area for any service she offers. I was very please with the care Sadie received and appreciate her loving her when we were away.”

“Daniela was the best one could hope for. Very welcoming. Very prompt and communicative. Took wonderful care of my little one and sent lots of great pictures. Very highly recommend.”
About: I have been an animal lover and owner since the day I was born. I grew up on a farm so I have cared for all kinds of animals including cats, and the loves of my life, DOGS! I will talk to, feed and pet anything that crosses my path. I promise to love and care for your pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to drop in on your baby(ies), take them for walks and/or have them stay in my home while you're away for the day. I live in a very dog and walking friendly neighborhood and have (2) friendly pooches that love to make new friends and invite them to join us on their daily walks.
“Allie is a loving professional through and through! She took Sterling pupper in for a weekend boarding visit and it felt like she was sent off to a doggo play and spa 😄☺️. Allie gave many many updates while caring for Sterling and also sent the BEST pictures while she was visiting. I will definitely be requesting her in the future for any dog care needs!”
About: Hello! I have had and cared for many different types of pets - dogs, cats, ferrets, turtles, bunnies, hamsters, Guinea pigs, bearded dragons, and fish my entire life! I also have experience with many stages of a pet’s life including puppies, training, seniors, sick/treatment care, and more. I have volunteer experience at Alaqua Animal Refuge in Freeport, FL. This provides me with the training to work with dogs that are anxious, abused, lonely, energetic, scared, and reactive to people and other dogs. My husband and I are retired and empty-nesters. So, I have plenty of flexibility to play/walk with your animals and do drop-ins as needed! I will provide professional references upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Whether you live locally or if you are just vacationing and need someone to check in on your furry friend while you are soaking up the sun, I am here for you. I will send pics too! 🙂 I believe pets are part of the family, and treat them as such. If I am lucky enough, your fur baby will get lots of love and attention from me and all their needs will be met! You can trust that I will treat and care for your pets as if they are my own. All instructions will be followed and I will leave your home in the same condition if not better as when I arrived. Please communicate to me if your animal has any preferences or special needs so I can accommodate your loved ones and give them the best experience! I was blessed to retire early and my children have left the nest, so I have lots of time to spend with all fur babies!!! :) I have a fenced yard and two dogs. I am willing to discuss your dog staying at my home depending on their size and age.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Callaway is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Callaway
This is a special review. When we dropped Fritz off with Shannon Monday, we had no idea we would be facing a hurricane by the end of the week. Shannon was proactive in sharing their plans and preparation, and gave me complete confidence and peace of mind that he was safe and being treated as a member of their family 'unit' in their storm plans. Shannon gets 5 stars for the excellent care and communication, but an extra shout out for loving him through the storm. Highly recommend Shannon, she is clearly an animal lover and will prioritize your baby just like she did mine!
Reya is amazing! I left my dog with her for 2 weeks, and I have never felt so reassured and comfortable. This isn't something I've done often and was so hard for me to leave Woody for 2 weeks, but Reya was so patient and it was so obvious she cared. Will 100% book with her again and recommend her to anyone who wants a trusted and caring person to look after their dog.
Carmen treated our pets like family! It was our second time using Rover and we were a bit worried due to a previous bad experience with another sitter. Our experience this time with Carmen was night and day. She provided so many photos and video updates that we felt comfortable on our 8-day international trip and could see our dogs were thriving. We had left them with her over the holidays and she even bought them matching Christmas sweaters to do a doggy Christmas pic <3. Wally and Luna also loved spending time with their new friend, Saskia, who was also an excellent hostess. Thank you so much, Carmen!
Sara was AMAZING. I was so scared to leave our Jax with just anyone. Especially with other animals. She made sure her pets and mine got along. She sent updates often so there was never a moment I was worried. I will use her again in the future! She’s very professional, kind, informative and great to work with.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Callaway is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $50 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 133 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Callaway. 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.
93% of sitters in Callaway 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 Callaway 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 Callaway.
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 Callaway. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Callaway 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.
