“Monica was amazing and a total life-saver! We needed last minute boarding for our labradoodle puppy while on vacation and she responded immediately and was the absolute best! She loved on our puppy and sent updates and pictures and we knew he was having the best time! Would give more than 5 stars if we could! Thanks so much, Monica!!”
“Dakota was absolutely amazing! Her whole family made my puppy's first time away from us so smooth. I got plenty of pictures and videos while I was gone, and I could tell he was having a great time with them and their sweet dog. I highly recommend her for your pup. I had no fear leaving Kirk with her after our meet and greet because I could tell she would make sure my pup is very well cared for and loved. Zero complaints. Dakota is awesome!”
“Renee is nice, her house is nice (although I didn't see the backyard so I can't comment there). She has several small dogs who played with Walter. She was good about texting pictures and communication.”
“Alex took wonderful care of Donny! We are so thankful! We were traveling for a family vacation but needed a few night for Donny to stay somewhere - I was nervous but she sent wonderful updates and took wonderful care of him!”
“This was our first time using Rover and everything was so simple and fast. Schyrita was great and gave us updates on our fur baby. I will definitely use her again, next time we are in town.”
“Sheila was amazing! We set up a meet and greet a few days before the stay, she was extremely sweet and my dog was very comfortable with her. She made sure that my dog was safe and made me feel at ease. She sent photos throughout his stay and updated me about how he was doing. 10/10 I would recommend Sheila to anyone who is looking for a sitter and I will be booking Sheila again when needed.”
“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!””
“So accommodating and a great communicator! We had some car trouble on the way back from our trip and Erika & Jason kept him well over time when they didn’t have to! I will be returning.”
“Myriad was GREAT!!!She was very pleasant and friendly, and even recommended things and places to visit during our vacation. She sent pictures throughout our pups stay. We can tell our pup had a great time. We will 100% most DEFINITELY be using Myrna in the future.”
“David and Krysta were fantastic. They have a wonderful family and my dog felt comfortable almost immediately after I dropped her off. David kept me informed, on the daily activities, sent me pictures, and provided behavioral updates. David and Krystal responded promptly adjusting to me very short notice request to drop off Bree and when I arrived ahead of schedule to pick her up. I would highly recommend this family if you need assistance in caring for your love ones. Truly thankful for this experience as it was my first but will not be my last.”
“Ana is the greatest! She cares for my young lab like she is part of her family. I always get wonderful pictures and videos every day and that makes travel and being away so much easier. My Maggie is so happy in her home and with the friends that she gets to play with. She is spoiled beyond even what I do for her. I can't recommend or say enough great things about Ana, she truly loves animals.”
“This was our first time leaving our baby. From my first conversation with Rosemary and meeting Matthew at drop-off they made it so easy not to worry. I would recommend them 10times over. Thanks so much for making my vacation!”
“Anna was so wonderful with my Max, I got pics and videos every day! She was a vet tech and I felt so comfortable with her knowledge of all his old man medications ? She was also very accommodating when I was going to be out of the country using a different app so we could communicate. Max is even going to be with her for the holidays as well when I’m out of town. I have no doubts he will have another wonderful mini vacation at Anna’s.”
“Jordan was fantastic and took great care of my fur baby. My pup can be high maintenance, but Jordan was very good at attention to detail and great with interacting with her and sending photos.”
“Madison was an absolute rockstar with my 8 month old pup. She was kind, and extremely caring with Cali. She kept me updated on Cali daily - my little girl was BEAMING in every picture from ear-to-ear. Cali misses having a buddy like Roma to run around with for sure. In the future we will ABSOLUTELY be electing Madison’s services.”
“Chris took great care of my dog while we were on vacation. Drop off and pick up went smoothly and he communicated wonderfully! He sent pictures and updates and showed Khloe lots of love!”
“We had a great experience! Ginny was very nice, kept us updated with pictures, and took great care of Cali and Diego. They’re both completely knocked out today, so I’m pretty sure they had a great time! 😂 We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Destin
Everytime we asked to come and see her, they were more then willing and said someone was always with her.. She would send me pictures of my Dogg while she was there. Anytime I called to check on my doggie she was always wui k to let me know that she was doing great. She actually let me pick her up one day and we took her to the beach and I watch when we brought her back because my dog will let you know if she doesn't like a place but she went willing, which told me she enjoyed being there💔. I will definitely use her again. Thank for everything. Teresa and Danny and Littlebit
Megan was so amazing! We booked a trip last minute and our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs so Willie stayed with Megan and her son. She responded so quickly to every message, kept us updated, and most importantly Willie had such a good time!! Would definitely book again.
Julie is absolutely amazing. She took the time to take care of our two doggos, and she was very patient with our new adopted pup Coco. She made sure that Coco was comfortable with another dog that was staying with her by coordinating with the other dog’s owner to allow us to visit and meet. It was a great match and our two dogs had an amazing time and came back tired, happy, and clean!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Destin on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 355 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Destin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Destin sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Destin landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Destin 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 Destin.
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.
You and your Destin 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.
