Hannah is so amazing, responsive, and responsible. If there were 10 stars, I’d give her 10!!! My boys loved her and she took them on a fantastic walk. We will be having her help us again in the future.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Schyrita was absolutely wonderful with Stella and Viper! Knowing she was coming over to care for them gave me such incredible peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive, caring, and wonderful with both of my dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. It means so much to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I would absolutely recommend Schyrita to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!

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.

About: I've always had pets growing up from turtles, fish, ferrets and cats and dogs! I have watched several of my friends and family pets. I am currently working from home 40 hours a week and can host a dog or 2 depending on size for daycare/boarding. I am also available for morning and evening check-ins and walks! I do work from home so your babies can come hang out with me and my puppers during the work day and play out all their energy! I do have a 1.5 yr old golden doodle who loves to play and stays home with me now that I work from home. We love to go on walks or go to the park.

When we need someone to watch our babies again Rebecca is who we will turn to. She kept us updated while we were away and the pets were getting along better when we got back. I do’t know what she said to them but I won’t be surprised if I find our dog and younger cat curled up together. He has become quite protective of her. After Rebecca left, our Maddox cried. He wanted to go with her. Rebecca is a keeper as a sitter. I highly recommend her. Very carring.

Darsy has been great. She shows up on time and has been working to gain the trust of our obstinate rat terrier and made progress today to get her out on a walk. As for our puppy, Bella, Darcy has been great with walking her and making sure she gets some water after the walk and playing with her. She’s also been great about working around our schedule. I highly recommend her.

About: I am a proud dog mom to five rescue pups: Peyton lab/pit mix, Penny Aussie/pit mix, Lina Great Dane, Olive Rottweiler/lab mix, and Dexter hound/lab mix. I work as a Veterinary Assistant and studied Veterinary Technology. I foster with multiple rescues when I’m able. I have plenty of experience and knowledge with dogs and cats of all ages. I know schedules can be busy and I'm hoping to help alleviate some of the pressure of taking care of a pup. I would love to help you with yours so contact me today! I look forward to hearing from you and even more so to meeting your four legged friends! I am flexible around my work schedule as a veterinary nurse and can check in on your pets as needed, providing food, play time, walks, pets and belly rubs, and plenty of treats. My yard is entirely fenced in, sitting on almost half an acre. This provides tons of room for pups to run and play. My house is very dog friendly: pets allowed on furniture, things are "dog-proofed" so as to avoid any accidents or issues, TONS of chew toys and ropes and squeakers, with a great selection of dog treats and snacks. If a dog is staying in my home and needs to be crated if I have to leave, I have an XXL kennel to use for them. Guest pups can be fed with or away from my dogs. In your home, you tell me. I am very flexible. Whatever makes you feel comfortable and keeps your pet safe and happy.

About: I didn’t grow up as a “dog person”—I grew up as a cat person. I was raised around cats (at one point, 12 of them: mom, dad, and two rounds of kittens) and dogs, with my dad mainly caring for the dogs. Cats were always my thing, and I never pictured myself as a dog mom. That changed about a year ago. I’m also a mom to two human boys under 10, and they wanted a dog so badly. I agreed to adopt—with the condition that they would be involved in caring for him. One day at an adoption event, I was holding a puppy… and the next thing I knew, I was walking into a pet store holding him like a baby and buying dog food. That’s how Jameson joined our family. Jameson is now one year old—a very smart, friendly Weimaraner–Pit Bull mix who loves other dogs, kids, and humans. After him, I confidently told my kids: one dog is enough. Joke's on me!. One morning, 5 months ago, one of my boys woke up and said, “I dreamed we have another dog. His name is Chris. He’s white with spots.” I immediately said no. A few hours later, we found Christopher, a white dog with spots who had been left behind near Walmart. And that’s how dog number two came home. Now the house has four boys—two human, two canine—and it’s honestly not chaos. It’s full of structure, routine, love, and daily trips to the dog park. I enjoy training, I’ve read books on dog behavior, and both Jameson and Christopher are well-mannered, social, and happy dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and very hands-on. I understand dogs as family members, not just pets—and I’m especially comfortable with dogs who live in homes with kids and real-life energy. Bonus: my dogs are bilingual. I speak English and Spanish, and yes… I can teach your dog Spanish commands if you want 😉🐾 Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my routine — it’s already built into it. I’m a real estate broker associate, 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, not an exception. I’m a hands-on dog mom to two active, social dogs, so outdoor time, dog park visits, and balanced downtime at home happen every day. Because I homeschool, I’m present throughout the day and able to give consistent attention, structure, and companionship to dogs in my care. Routine and reliability matter in my household. Pets are supervised, engaged, and treated like family, not left alone for long stretches. Weekly, I stay consistent with training reinforcement, socialization, and monitoring each dog’s behavior, appetite, and overall well-being. In short: pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life — it’s part of how we live. I care for pets the same way I care for my own: with routine, attention, and respect for who they are. 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 daily walks — including nearby nature spots — are part of our normal routine. Lots of supervision, movement, and love, always adjusted to each pet’s personality.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve had horses,dogs,cats and more. I have dog training experience and foster when needed to save a dog in need. I’m a Realtor with flexibility. My dog gets walked 3 to 5 miles a day and lots of play time! I feed twice a day and can follow the regular schedule. I live in a townhouse with a fenced area for pups to go in and out in between walks. This allows them outside time and space to play.

About: While professional dog walking for others is new for me, caring for dogs is not. I was lucky to spend 14 amazing years with my own dog, who was truly my soul dog and taught me so much about patience, attentiveness, routine, and unconditional love. After recently stepping away from my corporate career to slow down and focus on things that genuinely bring me joy - spending time with dogs, being active outdoors, creating meaningful connections. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I would care for them with the same kindness, attention, and love I gave my own. Whether your furry friend loves long walks, playtime, or simply companionship, I'm excited to provide a safe, fun and loving experience for them. Because I've recently stepped away from a corporate career I am flexible with my time, which allows me the ability to care for your furry friend. Dog walking is the perfect fit for this season of life because it combines my love for dogs, being active outdoors, and building meaningful connections in my community. You can expect dependable communication, punctuality, lots of love and attention for your pup, and someone who will care for them as if they were my own. At this time, I’m focusing exclusively on dog walking so I can provide the best possible experience and attention to each pup I care for. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I will make sure they are securely leashed, closely supervised, walked in safe areas, and cared for according to your instructions and their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys energetic walks or a slower pace, you can expect dependable care, patience, and lots of love every step of the way.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I enjoy spending time with them when their family is away. I think it is great if they can be at home with their normal routine. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I have a flexible schedule with good availability right now. I will follow the directions and schedule left by the pet or home owner. I think it is important to keep the pets on their routine.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Destin

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Destin on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 699 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Destin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Destin. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Destin.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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 walker 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 .

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

  • 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.

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 walker.
