“Kirsten and her family were more than amazing. They made everything so easy and kept me up to date on everything. The love they have for dogs is truly amazing and I could tell my dog was a little sad when we got back to our house. I wouldn’t have wanted him to be with anyone else when I was gone!”
“Erika & Jason V were wonderful to deal with. I had to drop off Scamp sooner than expected and they were very accommodating allowing me to drop him off 4 hours early. Erika & Jason sent me pics and updates for Scamp everyday which really eases your mind when you are away from your beloved pet. Scamp is an older dog and has some issues with food and meds and Erika & Jason made sure he was given the correct amount of food and meds at the right time. Scamp loved staying with Erika & Jason and when I need another sitter for Scamp, Erika & Jason will be my go to. We will definitely book with Erika & Jason again through Rover. They treated Scamp like one of there own and I made me feel very much as ease leaving Scamp. Thanks again Erika & Jason, for taking care of my beloved pet with such care and attention and treating him and me like family..”

“Great sitter and kept me informed with how things were going and sent pictures of my puppy every day so I wouldn’t be worried, would certainly recommend to others!”
“My dog Mila had the best time with Margaret and her family!! I received lots of pictures everyday and she had outstanding communication. It’s hard trying to find a sitter for my pit bull just based on how she looks but Margaret welcomed my baby girl with open arms and treated her like her own. I am extremely pleased and will definitely be returning!”
“Macie was amazing ! If your looking for a babysitter for your fur baby look no further. She had everything for my two babies. She kept me updated the whole time about how Gucci and kujo was doing . She has a lot of experience!! Her family is the sweetest !”
“Andrew and Maria are amazing. Our dog bonded with Maria instantly; she is a true “dog whisperer” and has a profound gift with animals. They both did an excellent job caring for our dog. You won’t find a nicer couple to look after your pet in the area. I highly recommend them!!!”
“Jeanette and her husband were great with my two doggies! I got an update almost daily and pictures were sent as well. The two are super knowledgeable about k-9s and took perfect care of mine. I would recommend and plan to use again since my pup lab-pit is now the best of friends with hers!”
“Micah was very communicative in the process. This was my first time using Rover and she definitely made my experience a great one. She assisted with boarding my little pup ,Cooper, for two days and was very accommodating with pick-up and drop-off times. She frequently updated me with videos and pictures of Coop living his best life. Cooper had so much fun playing with their dogs. I never seen him interact so well with other dogs that’s bigger than him. I highly recommend using Micah if you are in the Fort Walton area! She’s definitely my go-to option!”
“Thankful for Jessica and her family in taking great care of our companion, Blaze. Jessica was quick to respond and provided several photos and videos of Blazes visit. Thank you again!”
About: Is your dog like Marley? I will take the wildest of the wild to the most tamed. I've owned and cared for dogs most of my life they truly have different personalities that usually mirrors their owners. I enjoy being outdoors and exploring different parks around the city. Nothing beats the company a dog provides. I've owned three dogs in my life. My first was a Brittany Spaniel he was super energetic sweetie even until the end of his life. His best friend came later, a Beagle names Shiloh she was a prancing princess who definitely made sure to let him know who was in charge especially around feeding time, when I had to separate them. And finally Roscoe the "Gentle Giant Gentleman"; A Doberman whom i have claimed as my own although my boyfriend is his actual "owner". I’m available, to pet sit right now, I am a Business marketing student and I work part time at a vegetarian restaurant. I love to ride mu bike most evenings if there’s nothing else. I live by myself, your baby will get a lot of quality time with me. I live in a 4 plex apartment with a security gate, my apartment is sizable for a medium dog to move about freely

Cinco Bayou dog parents share their Rover experiences
Margaret was so sweet with my 11 year-old puppy. She sent lots of videos and would let us know every few hours what was going on. This is my first time using Rover and I am so glad I chose her. Her and her husband care very deeply for him. I will definitely be using them again in the future💕
Sebastian was GREAT with my pup Harley. He kept on constant contact and rescheduled out to me to share updated daily and kept her walked. He provided enricent and mental stimulation making her time away from me as easy as possible for.her. Sebastian accommodated my request for a pick up and brought her back as scheduled. He also went out of his way to meet her BEFORE hand so when he came to pick her up, she as actually excited to see him again and go with him. Departures for her are usually very difficult for her but Sebastian made her ans her needs his priority the entire time he had her. Thanks so much Sebastian! I will most definitely be using you again when the need arises again.
Kirsten was amazing with Jack! She sent pictures everyday and he looked like he was having the time of his life! She was also very flexible when I had to change my pickup time due to a flight cancellation. I appreciate her so much and I would definitely book with her again!
Jeannette did a fantastic job looking after our greyhound. She was incredibly flexible with our schedule, always quick to respond, and showed genuine kindness and care toward our dog. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such good hands. Highly recommended!
This was our dog’s first stay without family and we were very nervous. We were so pleased with the care and attention Sadie gave to our fur baby. She provided a warm atmosphere and plenty of walks. Daily photos and updates made us comfortable and we will be back next year for another visit.
My pup Finley was wagging his tail when we showed up for the second sit. Michael and his wife are dog lovers and it shows. Their sweet pups and Finley were pals in no time and even slept in the same room overnight. I loved the video Michael sent of Zoey and Finley playing together in the back yard. I was so glad my dog was getting exercise and socialization time with other dogs while we were away. They have a lovely home, too. When we came to pick Finley up, he was happy and tired. Couldn’t ask for more.
