About: Hey there! I’m LeeAnn 🙃 I’m here to help with your cutest, cuddly kitty and sweetest pupper needs! Whether I’m popping in for potty breaks, a quick stroll or making sure Whiskers can’t see there’s an empty spot in the food bowl (Cat parents, am I right?) Honestly I’m looking for something that allows the ability to create my own “flexible” schedule and be more present for my kiddos..the less furrier ones, although they act like wild animals! 🤪 I follow the instructions of the owners requests! In the summertime I am very mindful of the heat* I take a lot of shorter walks for the safety of myself and the dog - I want them to get their energy out but also don’t want the hot pavement burning their paws and/or a heat stroke for the animal nor myself. A lot of inside play consist of toy play! But again, I’m always going to be mindful of owner requests/demands
“Grace was amazing! Our dog is an active 10 month old puppy and Grace handled her energy levels greatly! She gave us consistent updates and communication throughout the whole process was quick! Would definitely recommend using her to anyone!”
“I can say honestly hands down Emili was the best. I’ve never had to leave lax with anyone , so when this trip came up , I needed someone I could trust explicitly. I met Emili with Lax one afternoon and he definitely liked her as well as I did. She took notes about lax ( habits, eating schedules , vet and was very thorough with anll her questions . She went over hs medications and kept me abreast of all that he was doing . I so appreciated the pics and check ins as it made the trip much easier . I knowing he was so well taken care of . I would definitely use Emili again .”
“Cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Carla. This was my first time leaving my pup with someone other than family, and it went incredibly well. Carla and her son were so thoughtful and caring with my sweet girl. She sent me numerous updates and photos throughout the days to ease my nerves. They went above and beyond, I will definitely be using her in the future to care for my baby!!”
“Jamie was wonderful. I will definitely be working with her in the future. Very friendly, great with my furry family members, and she even sent me photos throughout the day which was very comforting and the kitties were very happy!”
“Tammy is awesome! She will love you pet as much as you do. She is very communicative and sent us daily updates. You can rest assured that your pet will be well loved and looked after. We highly recommend her and will use her services again!”
“Koda absolutely loved his stay and was very well taken care of. His family had lots of love to give to Koda during his stay. We will absolutely always have him and his family take care of Koda when we are away.”
“Laura was amazing with Raven! She kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Raven was in great hands, she seemed happy, well cared for, and comfortable. Laura also sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated and loved seeing. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Cindy was very nice and welcoming. She provided photos and updates of Louie, and he seemed to have enjoyed his stay at her home. I would book with Cindy again.”
“I cannot recommend this sitter enough! We needed last-minute help with our cat, and she went above and beyond. She took amazing care of our cat, cleaned up after her, and made sure everything was taken care of while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you!”

I’d highly recommend Logan and plan to use her in the future. She made my pup feel right at home!”
“I'm giving Bianca 5 stars because she communicated and sent us pictures of Leo (cat) every day. Leo is over 1 year old and he started to get nervous around people however per the pictures he felt comfortable with Bianca so that gave us peace of mind while traveling. We're happy with Bianca so already booked with her again. Thanks”
“Return customer here. Emily really understands what your pet needs even through bad weather. Communication is spot on and she sends pictures and videos. Her family really ennjoys doing this you can tell”

“Elizabeth was great, very personable, lovely home and took us last minute. We would definitely recommend and seek her services again. Video updates were sent and great to watch while we were away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Destin
Monica was amazing with our two dogs. They stayed with her for 5 days, it could not have been more clear they were treated like family by everybody in the house. Monica started off by asked questions to make sure she had a good understanding of our dogs and their needs and communicated daily on how things were going. I was extremely impressed with how she handled introductions to her dogs as one of ours can be a little anxious with new people and dogs. I would not hesitate to book with her again, and plan to do so!
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.

There are 359 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Destin. About 92% of Destin sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
