“Christine was awesome with my boys!! She was super responsive and even my timid cat went right up to her!! She has a gift. 10/10 recommend!!”
“Valerie was great! She went above and beyond just dropping in. Daily walks and play time. Felt comfortable with the communication and all the picture updates.”
“Absolutely amazing!! My one cat that NEVER comes out for anyone but me warmed up to her and clearly trusted her. So happy my babies were cared and loved for while I was gone”
About: All my life, I thought I was a cat person. Then Jameson and Christopher happened… and I got converted. 😂🐾 Now I research dog behavior, work on training and commands, and probably get way too excited when they listen and learn something new. I’m patient, very hands-on, and affectionate. I believe structure and consistency are the key to almost everything. I also have two tweens who help care for our dogs and absolutely love having another furry friend around to play with and give attention to. With me, your dog gets walks, playtime, attention, treats (with your permission!), belly rubs, and people who genuinely enjoy having dogs around. And because I speak English and Spanish, my dogs are bilingual. 😂 So there’s a small chance yours goes home knowing a little Spanish too. 😉🐾 I’m a full-time mom, and I homeschool my two boys, which means my schedule is flexible, intentional, and home-centered. Daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, training, and supervision are part of my normal rhythm. Routine and reliability matter in my household. Pets are supervised, engaged, and treated like family, not left alone for long stretches. I care for pets the same way I care for my own kids: with routine, attention, and respect. I stick closely to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and home rules. While I don’t have a patio, we’re five minutes from the dog park and can take daily walks to nearby nature spots.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dog breeds throughout my life. Ranging from bloodhounds, German shepherds, to Belgian Malinois and others. I’m very familiar with working dog breeds and have trained myself own Belgian Malinois. No matter what need your furry family member needs, I will ensure it is met and exceeded. Currently I’m in the Army National Guard so I have tons of availability and free time to devote to animals and pet care. I also spend tons of time outside and hiking with my Belgian Malinois. I have a wooden fully fenced in back yard. I also am familiar with escapee dogs and am very quick to respond to many situations when needed. I am not afraid of confrontation so that is not a worry either.
“Staci thank you so much for the last minute schedule to come by to care for Teddy and his cats! ? I highly recommend Staci to anyone who is very overprotective of their animals and wants the RIGHT love and care. I didn’t have to worry about anything and truly enjoyed my time away. Very communicative and loving. My animals love Staci. I will be using you again. Thanks again you rock.”
“Bethany was so sweet and took the time to come meet Booger in person before the first official visit which was so nice. Next time I go out of town, I'd definitely feel comfortable with her watching my dog again.”
“Ginny was fantastic! She was dedicated to caring for our animals! She was also happy to send pictures along of our happy pets which made it all more comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we away on vacation! Thank you Ginny!!”
“Melanie dropped by our home to check on our two kittens. She always sent updates and pictures. She communicated very well and was super trustworthy! We’ll definitely have her watch our cats again 😊”
“What a beautiful soul! I am so grateful at how well she took care of my little family. They normally get really mad when I leave on trips but Gislene took such care of them that they didn't even care I was gone Thank you for being so sweet, attentive and respectful of my home and my kitties.”
“Cheryl has been wonderful! She is attentive and organized and reliable! We have 4 dogs and 1 is about 90 lbs. She’s great with them! She comes to our house regularly for drop ins and 2 of our dogs have gone to her house for a short stay. Highly recommended!”
About: I have had dogs since I was a kid, from pure beds to rescued mixed breeds and I love them like they are my family! Leaving your pet can be stressful I know, so I will do my best to love them and keep them distracted until you return! I currently work part time and mostly from home so I am very available to not just take care of your pet but really love them! I have a small fenced yard to play in and also a safe neighborhood to walk dogs. I’m very comfortable walking dogs of all ages and sizes. I do have a 2 year old son who loves animals so pets would need to be safe with him.
About: I’ve worked with neighborhood pets, mainly dogs and cats. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and love making sure pets feel happy and safe. I’m excited to bring an outgoing, energetic approach to every pet care experience. Im available all day! I can provide multiple check-ins throughout the day, along with walks, playtime, and plenty of attention to keep your pet happy and cared for. While I don’t offer pet care in my own home, I’m committed to keeping your space clean, tidy, and just the way you left it. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment.
“McKayla was OUTSTANDING!! I had a last minute cancellation with a sitter, and she was able to make it work for us. I got lots of pictures and my girls looked so happy. Even my dog Keera, who doesn’t do well with strangers, loved her. I hope I get to work with her again.”
About: I think a meet and greet is an important way to let me know if your pet needs anything special for their visit. I want pets to be my job. I have flexible hours to take care of your pet. If you have a senior dogs that needs to be walked by his/herself, that's no problem. They usually need to go at a slower pace so they can enjoy their walk. I can do walks or just drop in visits to be with them. I can also drop in visits for your cat, so they are not lonely. I think cats need attention & exercise while pet parents are away. I can give them playtime and keep you updated on their response. I want pets to be my job. I have flexible hours and the time to take care and play with your pups. I can also provide boarding on weekdays and/or weekends. I have no problem walking larger dogs, but I can only board dogs 20 lbs or under. (my dogs are 11 lbs and under.) I have had pets for over 30 and taking care of family, friends and neighbors pets for over 25 years. I treat your pet as if they were my own. I have a small fenced in yard and also have small dogs to keep your pup company. I am also able to crate your pup if needed. I have a dog door, but if I have to run errands the pups are safely keep inside until I return. My fur babies like to lay in the sun.

“I can’t say enough good things about Farrin! She has an obvious love for animals and such a sweet demeanor. She met me and Charlie before drop in visits for a week and he immediately loved her. She had great communication throughout, sent the cutest pictures, and I had such peace of mind leaving my little guy in her care. Don’t hesitate to use her for your pet. ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Destin on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 339 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
