About: Hi! I’m an experienced and caring pet sitter who’s comfortable with animals of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s playful puppies, cuddly kitties, or gentle giants, I’ve got you covered. I grew up around animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and energy levels. I also have a special place in my heart for mini pigs – I helped care for my family’s Julian mini pig, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’m reliable, attentive, and always happy to send you updates while you’re away so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love and belly rubs, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and happy. Let’s chat – I’d love to meet your fur or piggy!) babies! I have a very flexible schedule as I am a Real Estate agent and spend a lot of time at home. I can definitely move my schedule around depending on your fur babies needs. I look forward to working with you and giving your furry family all of the love and attention. I equally have cared for pets in my home and In others homes. I have a large home with a new privacy fenced in backyard and no other pets so I can easily watch yours without the worry of other pets personalities or space.
“Noah is the best!! We had a friend cancel on us and he came through last minute to house and pet sit. It was our first time booking on Rover and we were a tad nervous to leave our pets and house with someone we didn't know, but were so at ease once we met him. Our pets loved him and he left our house in perfect shape. 10/10 recommend booking him!”
About: I grew up on a farm so I'm familiar with all types of animals! I currently dog sit for most of my neighbors but I'm looking for a few more clients and babies to love on! I have two daughters who will be helping so the animals have to be kid friendly as well! I do not have any pets so they will receive a lot of attention with us! We will go on daily walks and play ball if they like ! We also don't mind if they like to bed share :) ! I'm available also on weekends and most holidays ! I can meet before hand as well to make sure you fur babies are okay with me !! :) :) :)
“Rona is incredible! She is truly an animal whisperer and will put your dog or cat needs above everything else, including her own. I trust her completely and look to her for advice to get to know my own dog better!”
About: Hi! Im Luis & I have over 10+ years experience with caring and loving for doggies. Former Marine , just absolutely love not only caring for dogs, but also ensuring strong client service for dog parents so that they are assured that their pup is great hands while they are away. Right now I am only doing walks and house sitting at clients home for now while I get my own house squared away.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve personally owned pitbull breeds, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs, but I also have experience with small breeds and cats as well. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I’m reliable, patient, active, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication routines, or just keeping them company. My military background has also made me very responsible, organized, and dependable, so you can feel confident your pets will be safe, cared for, and treated like family with me. I currently have a very flexible schedule and a lot of availability throughout the week. I recently graduated college and am waiting to begin active duty military service, so right now I’m doing side work and pet sitting for extra income while I prepare for that transition. Since I’m living with my sister and have fewer day-to-day obligations, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care, walks, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets company. I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays with flexible hours. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any specific care requests from owners. I have experience with both large and small dog breeds, including pitbulls, as well as cats, so I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels.
“We were so grateful to have Breanna to care for our three dogs in our home. We had two new adopted dogs that were just getting used to us when we had to leave for a funeral. Breanna came to our house before to meet them and spent lots of time with them. They were very happy to be with her. We felt so relieved to leave them in such good hands.We left without a care in the world. We highly recommend Breanna!!!”
About: I've always had a huge soft spot for animals, and while I can't commit to having my own dog right now (which would be a German shepherd), I'm always looking for my 'pet fix'! I've looked after all kinds of pets, big and small, and I especially connect with dogs since I'm pretty active myself. When I'm not at my full-time job, you'll find me out running or soaking up the sun at the beach. My ideal day pet sitting involves morning coffee runs with a mandatory pup cup, (if allowed!) beach trips, runs, sunset walks, and car rides with the windows down. I basically include dogs in every second of my life possible! I am always sure to take many pictures and videos for you while watching your baby! I usually make a shared album so I don’t spam! (I do have a cat who doesn’t mind other animals, I however always keep her separate to avoid any possible problems.) I live with family who is home majority of the time and able to help while I’m working if need be!) I’m happy to do pickup/drop off for an addition charge for your convenience! I work full time Monday-Friday 7:30am-4pm. The best thing for me with a pet needing my full attention would be anything Friday afternoon until Sunday but I can work with what I’m able if needed other days! If your pet is okay being created for four hours at a time, I can come home and let them out at lunch if weekdays are a must for you! As a pet sitter I believe it is my responsibility to take care of any pet related messes / duties in mine or your home!
“Shannon did a great job house sitting for me and watching my very anxious doodle!! Winnie seemed very happy when i got home! The house was kept very clean and left in the same condition i left it in. I will definitely book again with her!! thank you!!”
“Madison watched our dog for almost 2.5 weeks while we were on a holiday trip to see family. We did a meet and greet before the trip to make sure she got to know our dog (as he is reactive) and I loved that she asked questions so that she knew what our wants/needs are for the stay. She is so sweet and did so great during the whole stay. She also has really great communication and I highly recommend her!”
About: Hello, I am Jennie, a 43-year-old mother and wife with considerable free time. With extensive experience in caring for dogs and cats throughout my life, I possess a strong foundation in animal care. Growing up in Alabama afforded me ample opportunities to care for a multitude of animals. My expertise extends to caring for pets of all ages, from young to elderly. Recently, I cared for my Labrador for 20 years, managing her kidney issues and frequent potty breaks during her last 5 years. She also developed arthritis in her joints, making once easy maneuvers a trial without my assistance. Currently, I care for a miniature schnauzer and a black Bombay cat. I have experience with dogs ranging from Great Dane to miniature schnauzer sizes. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I would love to make your baby feel loved and comfortable in your absence. With my children in their teens, I've gained some spare time. I limit my service area to guarantee swift responses to clients facing emergencies and needing immediate assistance. I recognize the value of a regular routine for pets and the potential disruption caused by deviations from it. I ensure your pet's daily feeding and transition schedule is closely monitored. As someone who enjoys spending time outdoors, I am more than willing to take your pet on a walk or short hike if they enjoy the outdoors. My Jeep is available for transporting pets of all sizes, including larger breeds.
About: I have 3 dogs small and large. All super well taken care of and walk atleast a mile everyday. I also groom my own pets every month. I make sure that all my pups and me get our daily exercise together by taking walks or runs. I always plan my schedules for the week around my dogs and the time I need with them. I give them so much love and get all the exercise and energy they need in the day out. They are my number 1 priority
“Katrina was so great at communicating with us and providing pictures to help ease our minds while out of town. She was very respectful of our space and left it cleaner than she found it. Will absolutely utilize her again for future house sitting needs.”
“Brittany did a fantastic job taking care of our pups. We were completely at ease while we were away, knowing they were in such great hands. We couldn't have asked for better care!”
“Michelle has been our preferred dog sitter for a few years now! On our most recent trip, our dog (who is diabetic) decided to not eat for 24 hours. Michelle went above and beyond by buying wet food, boiling chicken, and giving us frequent updates to ease our stress as much as possible. She cares for our pup like he is her own and we couldn’t thank her enough!”
About: Semi-new to this but have dog sat for my family and close friends many times. Have always loved dogs since I was very young. Attended a dog training camp at 12 years old and it always brings me joy to be around anyone’s pet. I have a 13 year old dog that still lives with me and my family. I have a full-time serving job on Pensacola Beach. I have worked there for over 4 years (since I was 16). I genuinely just want something else to make me happy (and make extra money) and dog sitting would definitely do that for me. It would not even feel like a job for me but just something I love to do. Your pet would never leave my sight or care! Pets are like family and I would never not take it seriously. I will give them as much love as they want and more! I’m very responsible, trustworthy and will never be unreliable as long as I am being trusted with your pet.
About: I've had pets growing up and my own as an adult. I was taught pets are Family and that is how I care for my own, and other people's, pets. I can walk, clean up after, feed, and give medication to dogs. I've raised dogs from puppy through senior age and the peaceful passing on from this world. I work remotely, and make my own schedule, so I have a lot of flexibility to care for your fur baby. Walks, feeding, or sitting that works around whatever your schedule is. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex that has a fenced dog park and plenty of space to walk. I have a pet friendly apartment with a cat of my own currently. She's been around dogs and cats her entire life. Let me know your pets preferences and I'll accommodate to keep them comfortable and happy while you're away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Gulf Breeze
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gulf Breeze on Rover is $77.7 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 612 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gulf Breeze. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Gulf Breeze walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Gulf Breeze maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Gulf Breeze choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gulf Breeze. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
