Hannah did a great job watching both our dogs. She went above and beyond before during and after watching our babies! We'll definitely look her up again when back in the area. Thanks for everything Hannah!!

Jacob was amazing with Pua! I would say he went above and beyond in taking care of her and making sure that she had everything she needed. He was very attentive to her needs and was easily accessible.

Madison is an excellent pet sitter and we would highly recommend her to anyone. She took amazing care of our dogs and kept us updated regularly with how they were doing while we were out at a concert. This was our first time using Rover, and we’re very pleased with the service.

About: 🐾 Welcome to Our Pack! Need a vacation for your pet while you’re on vacation? We’re a military family in Niceville that treats every dog like they’re part of the family—not a customer. My wife and I have spent our entire lives around animals, from tiny Shih Tzus to giant Great Danes, and just about everything in between. Our home is full of love, attention, belly rubs, and the occasional debate over who gets to spoil your dog the most. We have two animal-loving kids who are always excited to make new furry friends, plus our resident welcoming committee: 🐶 Winnie – our playful Boston Terrier who thinks every dog is her new best friend. If your pup wants to play winnie is their bestest bud. If your pup is unsure and wants space, winnie senses that and is quite ok cuddling on the couch. 🐱 Luggage – our cat who is convinced he’s actually a dog and happily hangs out with everyone. 🐱 Benny Franks - our curious guy who loves to sit up high and supervise the fun! Whether your pet loves playing in the yard, lounging on the couch, going for walks, or simply getting extra attention, we’ll tailor their stay to what makes them happiest. Why pet parents choose us: ✅ Active-duty military family you can trust ✅ Experienced with small, medium, and large breeds ✅ Comfortable with puppies, seniors, and special routines ✅ Frequent photo and video updates ✅ Safe, loving family environment ✅ Plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles We understand how stressful it can be leaving your pet behind. That’s why we treat every dog as if they were our own and keep you updated so you can enjoy your trip knowing they’re having a great time too. By the time you pick them up, don’t be surprised if they act like they’ve been on vacation too. We can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐾 We both work full time but Pina is off Mondays and I can always come home during lunch to take care of the puppers. Someone’s home by 3pm and we’re available almost every weekend. I have a huge fenced in 1/2 acre back yard with plenty of area to run and let out energy. Plus Winnie loves to run and play with dogs of every size! We’ll play soccer with the pups and get plenty of fetch and walks in! I can crate the pups if necessary and have plenty of healthy treats!

About: What makes me different? I’ve been caring for pets since I was 15 years old and have experience with animals of all ages, from young puppies and kittens to senior pets. I genuinely love spending time with animals, building trust, and creating a safe, comfortable environment while their owners are away. Whether it’s a short visit or an extended stay, I treat every pet like my own and enjoy every moment of caring for them As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to work pet care visits around my classes. I can stop by throughout the day to check on, feed, play with, and care for your pets. If needed, I am also available for overnight stays and extended care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to dedicate several hours to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am happy to stay in your home to provide comfort, companionship, and consistency for your pet while you’re away. I can follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, playtime, walks, medications, and bedtime routines. Whether your pet is crate-trained or prefers to free roam, I will respect your preferences and ensure they are safe and comfortable. I am committed to going the extra mile to give your pet the attention, care, and security they deserve, treating them as if they were my own.

Kylie was fantastic.our dog suffers from separation anxiety and tends not to eat. I let her know about this and on the first night she told me that Mara ate. She doesn't usually do that...ever. We got several pictures of Mara being a solar powered puppy on our deck and Kylie even took our cat Zephyr out with her because she also loves going outside. Kylie truly is an animal whisperer and is very observant and patient. All of our animals were nice and calm when we retuened home and no where near as axious as they usually are when we return after a long trip. Would definitely book her again.

About: Hi! I’m Ashley, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own household. I currently have two cats of my own, Twinkie and Binx, who are spoiled members of the family and remind me every day how important it is to provide pets with love, attention, and consistency. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up with multiple dogs ranging from a small Rat Terrier to a Boxer, and I’ve also cared for larger breeds including Great Danes and Weimaraners. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or somewhere in between, I take the time to learn their routine and make them feel comfortable and secure. When caring for your pets, I treat them like family. I understand that every animal has unique needs, and I’m committed to following feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special requests you may have. I also believe communication is important, so you can expect regular updates and photos while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving the same love and care they would get at home. I work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM and have a one-hour lunch break during the day. During my lunch break, I can check in, provide potty breaks, feed pets if needed, and make sure they’re comfortable. Before and after work, your pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to know your pets are doing well while you’re away, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each stay. I strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible and will always treat them with the same love and care I give my own cats, Twinkie and Binx. My schedule works especially well for cats, independent dogs, and pets who are comfortable being alone during a typical workday. For pets requiring constant supervision or more frequent potty breaks, we’ll discuss their needs beforehand to make sure I’m the right fit. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and household rules. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets for friends and family, as well as owning my own cats, Twinkie and Binx, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I strive to create a safe and stress-free experience for them.

This is my first time using Rover and Amber; I will never put my dog in any boarding/pet hotel/ doggy daycare again!! Amber did such a wonderful job with Milo, he got personal attention, long walks and kept his schedule all in his own home. When we boarded him, it would take a couple of days just to get “Milo” back to his normal self, but when we got back today he was his normal self thanks to Amber’s excellent care. Amber also took great care of our home while we were away, keeping everything neat and clean, including laundering the bath towels and bedding used while staying here. Any apprehension we initially had using Rover for the first time has been put to rest, and Amber is a great choice to care for your pet and your home!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in middle school. I’ve dogsat for family, friends, and neighbors! I love cuddling up with any pet but especially the senior pups who need extra love. I always make sure each pup gets enough attention and playtime when I visit!! I have a part-time job that keeps me busy midday but i’m always available to stop by for a few hours in the mornings and at nights! I understand that puppies that go into crates when home alone cannot stay there for more than 10 hours at a time. So i’ll make sure to at least take them potty between longer visits! Lots of love and care can definitely help a dog with attachment issues. My chorkie named Tebow is always nervous about something (the Chihuahua in him) and we let him know he’s safe with play time and cuddle time.

FAQs for House Sitting - Choctaw Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Choctaw Beach on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 387 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Choctaw Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Choctaw Beach 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 Choctaw Beach 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.

Tip: 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 Choctaw Beach 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Choctaw Beach. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
