“This is my second time booking with Robert and everytime he does an awesome job. My anxious dog who is scared of humans greeted him everytime he came home and even let him pet her. He is a great dog sitter!”
“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.”
“We will miss Ashlea so much when we move! It’s so hard to find good dog sitters and Ashlea goes above and beyond every time and we will recommend her every time! We are blessed to have known her and her family our dogs will truly miss her!”
“Very attentive to my dogs needs and gave him time to adapt so that he could play with the larger group of dogs. Sariah was awesome to work with as she was super flexible with pick up and drop off times.”
“Million and her 2 sons took great care of our dog over the weekend. She sent a bunch of pictures and videos every day; and it was obvious he was getting lots of attention and play time. I know he enjoyed it and we look forward to using her again in the future.”
“Amazing communication and reliability before/during our dogs stay. Accepted all accomedations and requirements for our dog. Made sure that she met or exceeded our dogs exercise and socialization needs. Absolutely phenomenal, 10/10 would recommend”
“Andrew and Maria are amazing. Our dog bonded with Maria instantly; she is a true “dog whisperer” and has a profound gift with animals. They both did an excellent job caring for our dog. You won’t find a nicer couple to look after your pet in the area. I highly recommend them!!!”
“Our young lab Storm had a great time hanging out at Jeannette's house this past weekend with her dog. From the way it sounds and how well he slept the night we picked him up he probably played the entire time. She was super easy to communicate with and sent lots of great pics of him hanging out in the water, her house and backyard while he was visiting. We would definitely recommend her for anyone wanting a positive experience for their dog.”
“This was the first time we ever left our dog so I was a little nervous. Alex's other dogs are very sweet and they got along fine. Alex sent me text and pictures, sometimes twice a day! They went on walks, to the beach, she spoiled our girl rotten! Very appreciate, would highly recommend!”
“Laura took great care of our pups while we were away! She kept us updated, sent pictures, helped one of our dogs with a bug bite, and even had them brushed and ready to come home. We’re so grateful and would definitely book again!”
About: I have had a deep passion for dogs since I was a young girl. My experience in dog care began in high school when I cared for a sick loved one’s dog. Over the course of that year, I not only gained a best friend but also developed a strong sense of responsibility and an appreciation for the joy and companionship that comes with caring for animals. Over the past 3–4 years, I have continued building my experience through dog sitting, and for the past two years, I have worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility. These experiences have strengthened my dedication to providing attentive, compassionate care while maintaining a safe and structured environment. I am committed to supporting both pets and their owners with reliability and professionalism. I’m available anytime after dropping my son off to school @8:30am. Or before/after picking him up from aftercare, by 5:30pm. I box on weekdays but can go around what ever is needed. At my home I have a fenced backyard, enough space to crate 1-3 dogs if need be. I want the dog to be as comfortable as possible, a home away from home. As for clients homes , they are to be treated with respect & cleanliness it is their safe space, same as my home.
About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From energetic puppies to senior pets who just want a calm companion, I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and needs. For the past 7 years, I’ve worked as a professional animal trainer with marine mammals—so patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are at the core of everything I do. I bring that same thoughtful, reward-based approach to working with dogs and other pets. I currently have a small Pomeranian mix of my own, so I understand just how important it is to trust someone with your four-legged family member. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities—and I’ll care for them just like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits easily into my routine alongside my 9–5 schedule. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the week, and I’m fully available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for more flexible care. I’m careful to only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in my home or yours. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and preferred routines. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm, safe environment. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and work to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. My goal is always to keep your pet happy, stress-free, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Gabrielle took amazing care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She even tailored special meals that would be more palatable for our pup due to medical needs. I would definitely use Gabrielle in the future.”
“Dana was amazing with our two pups. They loved the all of the extra attention and we got to see pictures of them playing with her sweet family while we were away. Would absolutely recommend her as a safe place for your pets to relax while you’re away!”

Megan was awesome watching our Mochi while we were visiting the Destin area for a few days. Super flexible and accommodating to our schedule. She has plenty of indoor and outdoor space at her house in a quiet street. Allowed us to enjoy our trip while knowing our dog was safe and in good hands.
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!
Ms. Barbara was phenomenal for my Rubble. We were in vacation from PA and decided to take a last minute trip to NOLA for the day, and Ms. Barbara was quick to respond about taking my boy. He’ s a shy boy but he had no problem fitting in with the other pups. He even went back to say bye! Definitely will keep Barbara in mind for the next time we are in Destin! Thank you so much!!!

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 pet, 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.
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.
