“This is by far the only place we will take Makko!! They love him like their own💜 Makko does not even say bye to us anymore. Straight to their front door looking for his friends!! Love this”
“Anna is incredible! ? While we were away, we didn’t stress once about our golden retriever being taken care of. She sent pictures daily and took such great care our little guy! If you want someone to spend quality time with your fur friend, Anna should be your go-to rover!”
“Rosemary and Matthew were very responsive and my boy seemed to have a great time with their family. I really appreciated their efforts to maintain my dog's established schedule and rule following! Would definitely recommend/book with this family again!”
“This was our first time using Rover and everything was so simple and fast. Schyrita was great and gave us updates on our fur baby. I will definitely use her again, next time we are in town.”
“Sheila came through in a pinch when my dog sitter cancelled at the last minute. She kept me updated with pics and made me feel like I was dropping my dog off with family. Definitely recommend!”
“Ginny took great care of our pup during the new years holiday week! We felt so calm knowing our pup was in good hands while we vacationed in the area from DC. Would definitely recommend!”
“Kayla & Richard were awesome, and super easy to work with! Our pup loved her pool time and playing with their kids and other dogs. It was like she was at summer camp! :) We were grateful to know that she was in great hands, being well-cared for and having a good time while we were away!”
“Chelsee was such an amazing sitter taking care of my dog, Buddy! She made sure he had lots of love, cuddles, and walks. She made sure to accommodate to all of Buddy's needs and provide consistent, detailed updates with how he was every day making it so reassuring that he was being well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Chelsee if you ever need her to care for your pets!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and currently have one dog and two cats. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, high-energy pets, laid-back pets, and seniors who may need extra patience or medication support. I treat every pet like family and tailor care to their personality and routine. Because I have pets of my own, I believe in slow, supervised introductions and a grace period for animals to get comfortable. I never rush interactions—your pet’s safety and comfort come first. Family and friends rely on me to care for their pets whenever they go out of town. I work as a contractor and am usually at my home office. My other office is close by, so if I need to leave, it will only be for a very short period. I’m very flexible with my time and can provide frequent attention, potty breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Our dog gets two walks daily—one early in the morning and one in the evening—and I can adapt that routine to your pet’s needs. I try to stay very aware of the temperature on which they walk as well. I can also administer medications when clear instructions are provided. I care for pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Dogs have frequent supervised potty breaks and backyard playtime, along with walks, play, and plenty of companionship. Pets also have a comfortable, quiet room available if they need a break from noise, activity, and the evil vacuum. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust care based on their age, energy level, and comfort.

“Gabrielle and her fiancé did an amazing job taking care of my three dogs, Cookie, Lance, and Wicket. Two of them are blind and one is a senior, so they need a lot of extra care and patience. They watched my dogs while I was at work on a 13-hour duty, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. Gabrielle sent me updates and pictures throughout the day, which really comforted me. My dogs were happy and well cared for. I’ve already booked two future stays with her that’s how great she is! Highly recommend!”
“Heather was lovely and took great care of Peanut! It was so nice to have someone close by while I was at the beach. Heather was flexible with pick up and drop off.”
About: We are newer to the Niceville area but we have had dogs all of our life! We are very active and take our lady girl everywhere we go (walks, on the boat, restaurants, car rides etc). Lady gets along super well with other dogs. Lizzy works from home so can accommodate drop in visits and boarding and any care you may need for your dog. Lots of pictures and updates to assure that you know your pup is in good hands! We would love to take care of your furry friend for a day/night/week/weekend! Lizzy works from home so is super flexible ! Lady goes everywhere with us as she is not just a pet, but a member of our family! We strive to go above and beyond to make your pet feel comfortable and safe! Multiple walks and TLC are a must! We will keep you updated on how your pet is doing while you're away with daily pictures and updates so you feel good about their stay.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was old enough to scoop food into a bowl! I have always had cats and dogs and can’t imagine life without them. I currently have a cat and Goldendoodle of my own. I recently transitioned into a low stress remote job, giving me plenty of time to take my pup on walks and to the park. Prior to this, I dealt with finding the daily time to give my own pets the exercise and attention they deserve. I am more than happy to give others the relief I found from pet sitting/walking since I have a lot more time on my hands! I am happy to make any accommodations needed when caring for pets in their own homes, and strive to keep them as comfortable and in routine as possible! As someone who also needs pet sitters when traveling, I know the importance of feeling confident with who is caring for your pets. Whatever I can do to make them happy, just say the word!
“The best dog sitter in Austin. Samantha has worked around our busy schedule twice now and is very understanding. We appreciate her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful person to watch their fur baby!”
“Koda absolutely loved his stay and was very well taken care of. His family had lots of love to give to Koda during his stay. We will absolutely always have him and his family take care of Koda when we are away.”
“Hi Eberyone, I had another really great experience with Rover and the dog sitter I chose. Barbara sent pictures and updates every single day. I didn't want to be the worry wart Mom but I guess I was. I was so relieved when I heard from her. The cool part is that the dogs met outside. Farley loved her two lttle friends right away. Never did the Mr Macho stuff he usually does around other dogs. I knew they would all get along great. I will recommend Barbara and Rover to everyone I know that boards their dogs. It was another fantastic experience. To top it off - he came home very relaxed. Which hasn't been the case at other times. Thanks again Barbara. Oh, and Rover.com for such a great experience.”
“Brittany was amazing when she took care of our dogs for a whole week! We boarded them at her home and I’m know our pups enjoyed their stay! She updated us everyday and we are forever grateful! We would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Million did a great job watching Teddy and Khloe again! They were happy and well cared for, and I felt completely comfortable leaving them with her. Definitely recommend!”

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.
96% of sitters in Choctaw Beach 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 Choctaw Beach 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 Choctaw Beach.
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 Choctaw Beach. On Rover:
- 93% 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 Choctaw Beach 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.
