“Would definitely recommend! I know my girl had a great time here (apparently she loved the pool). Kayla/Richard provided photos throughout her stay and updated us on what she had been up to. Will definitely be using in the future!”
“Carla is amazing! This was our first time leaving our 6 year old dachshund with someone other than family. I was very nervous - our Sammie can be snippy, barks, and is generally afraid of strangers. Carla was so patient and knowledgeable with Sammie. Sammie had a great time and Carla was amazing (I know I already said that but it's worth repeating). Carla accommodated Sammie's needs, calmed Sammie's fears, and was attentive to Sammie. We will book her again!”
“Tammy is just absolutely amazing! First for my pups in being boarded and I absolutely plan utilizing her services again in the future. Can't believe my pups were a non issue, that they interacted with other pups just completely fine. Loved the updates I received while they were on their stay. Huge stress relief in utilizing Tammy's services and she was so close to the hotel we were staying in Crestview. Thank you again Tammy!”
“Betina was amazing with my dog Griff! He’s a senior dog and needed lots of extra care during his stay and she was so kind and accommodating. I highly recommend Betina if you’re looking for quality care for your fur babies!”
“Nicole was absolutely amazing! We booked her on short notice, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. Her home setup is perfect for pets, and she went above and beyond to make our boy feel comfortable, even letting him sleep in her bed like he does at home. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Very communicative and kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind. My pets seemed comfortable and well cared for when I returned. I appreciated the attention to detail and reliability. Thank you for taking care of them!””
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for over five years, turning a lifelong love for pets into a reliable, full-service pet sitting business. From energetic puppies needing long neighborhood runs to gentle senior cats requiring precise medication schedules, I specialize in providing personalized, stress-free care right in your pets' home environment. Owners count on me for complete peace of mind, knowing their pets are getting constant companionship, playtime, and daily photo updates while they're away. Whether it’s maintaining strict routines or offering extra belly rubs, I treat every animal like family. My daily routine is built entirely around providing dedicated, high-quality care for your pets! I work a short 3-hour morning shift with Amazon, which leaves the rest of my day completely open to focus on what I love most: caring for your furry family members. I have a big fenced in yard to let my furry friends roam. I can also crate your pets if you’d like. I love to let them roam free in my home and feel like it’s their own so they are as comfortable as possible
“Juniper had a lovely weekend while we were away and Anna sent many photos from their time together. Anna was very communicative and accommodated our drop off & pick up times.”
“Gravy the mutt came home happy and well loved. He has only been elsewhere three times in his almost three years of age. One of those times he came home piddling on everything and we haven’t let him elsewhere until now. Erika and Jason did a phenomenal job of treating him like family and we are so very thankful. Highly recommend and will use again 💕💕💕”
“We had a great experience with Aurmurii! She was very attentive and caring with Kean, played with him, and made sure he got plenty of attention. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Kean came home happy and noticeably calmer and more relaxed. It was clear that he had a wonderful time and was very well cared for. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Monica is awesome! She sent daily photos and updates!!! I could tell by my dog’s GPS that she actually got more exercise with Monica than she does with me! If you show up in Destin with your dog and realize you can’t take them to the beach, please please please reach out to Monica!!! She will take care of your fur baby with as much love as you do 🥰”
About: I stand out because I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I have experience caring for dogs and am comfortable following their routines, needs, and personalities. I am responsible, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate time to feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for pets. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. I speak Spanish too. I care for pets by following their usual routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home or my client’s home, I provide regular meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also follow any special instructions from the owner and keep their space clean and comfortable.
“Courtney and David were amazing!!! She updated me the whole time My dogs were there, sending videos and super fun updates! Will definitely be using them again and again!”
“Oakie was a great sitter for my dog. It was last minute but she was able to accommodate us and we were so thankful that she could. She sent pictures daily also text and responded to my texts in a timely manner. She was the perfect match for my dog. I highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
“I am very happy we found Sydney to watch our two dogs for a week! She was wonderful to work with and made sure to keep us in the loop by giving us updates and including some pictures of the puppers! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Shep had the best stay with Liznel. He was so pampered by her and her family. Seriously, I don’t think Shep wanted to come back home😂 he got lots of playtime with her pup and lots of walks not to mention all the cuddles. We got lots of pictures and updates. We highly recommend Liznel and wont hesitate to reach out to her again. Much thanks!”
“Sariah replies promptly to communication and took great care of our Marty. He had so much fun playing with the other dogs! Sariah was also great about sending photos and videos of Marty during his stay so that I knew he was having a great time. I would book with Sariah again in a heartbeat! (And I’m pretty sure Marty would go play at her house every day if he could).”
“We simply could not have asked for better pet sitters for our fur babies! Chris and his wife took excellent care of our two dogs for 11 nights while we vacationed at Miramar Beach. We were sent regular updates and pictures of our dogs that kept us from worrying about them. They worked with us, so that we could visit and take them to the dog park on 3 occasions. The dogs went on regular evening walks and received lots of love. Chris and his wife went above and beyond and their thoughtfulness exceeded our expectations. We would use them again without hesitation.”
“Rachel and Cody were great with our pup aslan! We got constant updates and he seemed like he was having a really chill time. He made friends with their baby and their husky pup. He was happy and clean and very tired when we picked him up”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Deerland
Nice couple with a large area for my dogs to run and play. Their dogs also got along well with mine and were friendly. They were also willing to be flexible with pick-ups when my flights were delayed/cancelled on my return trip. Thankfully I was still able to make it back in time, but knowing this made it less stressful. Will definitely look into contacting them again in the future if the need arises.
Francis was amazing with our 4 cats and 2 dogs for a week. I could tell right away she was a true animal lover. She made our pets feel like they were a part of her family. We are so grateful for the care and love she showed them. We will definitely call on her again.

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.

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.
97% of sitters in Deerland 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 Deerland 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 Deerland.
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 Deerland. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Deerland 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.
