About: I have worked as a kennel tech for dog daycare and took care of multiple dogs with different personalities. I’ve also pet sat cats and dogs for family friends. I typically work 4-5 days a week and work to integrate your pet needs into my schedule so that they’re taken care of while you’re away At a clients home I like to go over any safety precautions and routines so I can stick to what your pet is familiar with while I’m there.

“This was my first time leaving my kitty alone and he made me feel so comfortable! I was updated regularity with pictures, his communication was great, and he was able to give my baby medicine no problem. I also came home to a clean house after he house sat. Communication was great and I will definitely rebook next time I need a sitter!”

About: I grew up on a farm caring for multiple animals, which gave me a lot of hands-on experience understanding different animals, personalities, and routines. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to follow their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, but my availability can vary from week to week. I typically work in the mornings, usually between 6 AM and 12 PM, depending on my schedule. I’m generally available for pet care before or after work and can coordinate times with you in advance. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs! I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. In your home, I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine while keeping their space clean, safe, and comfortable. I’m respectful of your home and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away.

About: Dogs are the best. I have had dogs my entire life and currently have 2 little guys (9yr and 14yr). No matter where I go I always find the dogs! If your pup is friendly, they’ll get along great with mine! Currently relocated here for a job and unfortunately that didn’t work out. I’m currently searching for the next career move, and I would love for that to be taking care of your pup! Obviously listening to the advice of the parent first, my house is their house, for all friendly pups! I have a large fenced in back yard with flood lights all around.

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

Jenn is the absolute best!!! Her communication is top notch and she is always quick to let me know when something is up. Had a few household issues while I was gone and Jenn stepped right in to help while she was here. She goes above and beyond always and I couldn’t feel more comfortable leaving my fur baby with anyone else. Sooo appreciate the live and care you give Bikkes!!! Thanks for EVERYTHING!!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Destin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Destin is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $31 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 100 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Destin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

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.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.

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.
