“Eva did a great job. Our dogs Bentley and Max love her. She took very good care of our puppies while we were out of town. I like that she takes as good of care as we do , when we are unable to be here. We recommend Eva and, would be happy to hire her again.”
About: I've owned and cared for animals my entire life — not just dogs and cats, but ferrets, birds, and farm animals like pigs and goats. That range means I'm comfortable reading behavior and body language across species, not just one type of pet, and I can adjust my approach whether it's a nervous cat, a high-energy dog, or livestock that needs a calmer, slower introduction. I'm trained in pet CPR for dogs and cats, so I can respond confidently if something goes wrong during a visit. I'm typically available all day Sunday through Wednesday for visits and walks. On Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I work a part-time job from 5am to 3pm, so I'm available after 3pm on those days. I try to respond quickly to booking requests and I'm happy to work around your schedule when I can. Since I only do drop-in visits and walks at this time, your pet stays in the comfort of their own home rather than being boarded anywhere else — no unfamiliar animals, no new environment, no added stress for them. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect I'd want for my own: doors and gates stay secured, I follow any feeding, medication, or routine instructions exactly as given, and I make sure everything is locked up and put back the way I found it before I leave. For dogs, I keep walks on-leash and under control at all times unless you've told me otherwise. For cats and smaller animals, I move at their pace, give them space if they're shy, and never force interaction. If anything seems off with your pet's health or behavior during a visit, I'll let you know right away rather than waiting. On the days I work my part-time job, my fiancé Jake, also an animal lover — may occasionally step in for a visit if needed, and he follows the same care standards I do
About: Animals have been a part of my life since I can remember. I have taken that passion and built a plentiful career with a plethora of experience that allows your pet to have a safe and enjoyable experience. I currently own 5 cats but I have grown up with dogs all my life, including a beloved family pet with aggressive tendencies. Animals are not just pets, they are family, and no one understands that more than me. Here is some of my experience: - professional experience taking care of exotic animals especially reptiles and amphibians - worked a year in the veterinary field - Current pet store employee who handled pet nutrition and care I currently work full time, but that does not inhibit my ability to give my full attention to your pets when they are in my care. I have to care for my at home menagerie daily and have no issues juggling multiple duties. I can only board small mammals and reptiles/amphibians. I have room to bring in reptile and small animal cages. I have the ability to separate from my 3 cats if necessary. All 3 of my cats have been raised with Rabbits.
“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”
“I would recommend Andrew to anyone and have no reservations booking him again. My two adult pitbulls adore Andrew. I'm borderline concerned that they like him more than me. Andrew was in contact with me everyday I was away. He sent videos and photos as well as exact times when they started and ended walks. Additionally Andrew asked permission before doing things. Despite being a fairly relaxed person with people using the amenities, I truly appreciated Andrew asking for my consent prior to using them. Definitely give Andrew a call and see if he's available to watch your fur babies. I'm glad I did.”
“Jamie took wonderful care of our two dogs ( 1 & 8) and our home for a few days. She worked well with their training collars and made sure they got plenty of exercise. She also kept the home neat and tidy throughout her stay. She communicated well by providing a lot of updates and photos. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”
About: As an aspiring vet, it is my duty to ensure the health and welfare of any animal in my care. I make sure to carefully observe and notate any abnormalities while pet sitting to make sure any issues are caught early on Currently working part-time as a veterinary assistant, on my journey to come a veterinarian, pet care is my everyday life and has been for the past 5 years. I have easy access to a large dog park, and open fields so plenty of outside time is used. My home is also very spacious, plenty of roaming around space with a fenced deck for sunbathing as well

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Carrabelle walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Carrabelle maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Carrabelle choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
