About: There’s not a pet in the world I’ve met that I didn’t get along with. Lots of experience with senior dogs and specialized diets for dietary restrictions. Certified medical assistant so broad medical knowledge that helps with animals as well. Right now, I’m flexible to do a lot of different services. I work in central Pensacola and can stop in for potty breaks and short walks during the work day and can do overnight stays if needed. I respect my client’s home, space, and furry family member. I was raised by military parents that instilled very good morals and values in me.
“Erica was amazing! She knew how special our babies were and sent messages accordingly. She put our minds at ease! Definitely recommend if you are in the Gulf Shore area!”

“I was skeptical about trusting my 4month old baby with a complete stranger. However, Holly made My skepticism go away. Her communication skills are excellent. She informed me ahead of time that she was on the way, giving me time to get Chloe prepared for her walk. She greeted and let Chloe cuddle her for a few and off they went. I received pictures during the walk. Afterwards, my high energetic puppy come back home happy and low key for momma for that day.”

About: I’ve adopted dogs since my early twenties and they have been my only kids since. I’ve been lucky to have loved 4. We adopted 2 puppies in March 2025 and it’s been so fun ( and busy) having little pups again. We’ve been to training classes and are working on our manners. We take our pups with us whenever we can and that includes, restaurants, outdoor markets, camping, boat rides, the river and beach. I am currently retired and would LOVE to care for your fur babies and make some money to spend on mine. Haha I’m pretty flexible and can adjust as needed. I have two 6 month old puppies right now and they are crate trained. They love to play and wrestle. We are still going outside to potty and play about every four to six hours just to stay on a schedule and keep them entertained. We do let our fur babies on the furniture and bed.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to reptiles, birds, and small animals. I currently have four cats of my own who are truly part of my family, and I’ve cared for friends’, neighbors’, and family members’ pets for many years. I’m comfortable caring for animals of all ages and personalities, including providing medication when needed. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just as they would be in my own home. And yes, I’m always happy to spoil them a little, too! My work schedule is generally 3 PM–11 PM, although the exact hours can vary, so I ask for about one week’s notice whenever possible to make sure I can provide the best care for your pets. For both drop-in visits and house sitting, I treat caring for your pets like a second job and plan my schedule accordingly. I’m happy to schedule drop-in visits around my work hours, including before and after work. For house sitting, when I’m not working, I’ll be at your home with your pets. When I do need to leave, it will primarily be to care for my own animals at home before returning. I’m committed to making sure your pets receive consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout their stay. The only exception would be if a pet requires specialized care or treatment during my work hours. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit. I provide my own cats with consistent, dependable care and make sure they have everything they need to stay happy and healthy. They are all young, healthy, and up to date on their vaccinations, and I’m experienced with the everyday care that keeps pets comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: I've been pet sitting for 8+ years now, beginning when I was asked by a family friend to pet sit/house sit for a few weekends when I was 18. While I had been babysitting almost my entire life for both my immediate family and family friends (I am the oldest child of 3 sisters- so you could say I was born for this haha), pets were new to me. This didn’t stop me, however, and immediately, I was IN LOVE!! Her babies became my babies & I’ve never stopped loving each and every animal I have come into contact with since! I have cared for both big and small animals with no love lost in between. I grew up with 3 rabbits in the house who we let roam freely, a bearded dragon, a bird, a dog, and several outside cats! I also now have 2 (inside) cats of my own who I treat like my children. I understand the value and necessity of having a good sitter who you can trust and who is reliable. I am trustworthy, patient, responsible, and the best pet sitter for you! I hope to talk to you soon. :) I am currently available at all hours to take care of ALL of the fur babies! Seriously - I am honored to take care of them! The best thing about me is that I PAY ATTENTION! I am extremely attentive and I will care for your pet as if they are my own. To me, pets are not just animals, they are truly a member of the family so you can trust me to provide your loved one the care that they deserve. I am observant and thoughtful, so your fur baby is in good hands with me. Let me know if you have any questions or preferences because I am more than willing to help. :)
About: Hi! I’m from the southern states and love beach walks and keeping active! I’d love to walk your pup! I have puppies of my own back home and could use some pup snuggles/walks! I have plenty of time to work around your schedule! I’d love to pick up some walks daily. I love closing my Apple Watch rings😁 so daily walks are a must for me. Even better with a doggy! I don’t prefer to do over nights or in my home since I don’t have the friendliest environment for a dog. However, I would love taking them on walks.
About: Hello ! I just moved here from Virginia, and I want to tell you a bit about me. I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Always playing/taking on walks, feeding them, and giving cuddles. As a dog mom of two K understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your babies while you’re away. I regularly dog sat for a yellow lab and shih tzu in VA, and since moving here I adopted a second dog and i have been walking/doing drop in visits for other dogs near me, as seen in pictures ! I am a stay at home wife, so I’m available pretty much anytime. I do like getting my own pup at least an hour of play before leaving but that will be no issue I make sure I play with the pups very frequently, especially when I first get there and before I leave. I make sure to take them on 1-2 40 minute walks depending on how long i’m watching them for. One walk after they eat and one walk later on. I can brush them, feed them, play in the yard with them, etc.
About: I've been taking care of dogs and animals ever since I've been a child. I currently dog sit and walk 2 dogs and have been doing so for over 2 years. Willing to watch more than just dogs, meow, cats need care too. If your furry friend just needs a walk,or you need to go out of town and they require more care,I have you covered from the comfort of your pets home. I currently work part-time as a walker and care taker for two lovely dogs now. My schedule is open enough for time for your fur baby as well. I would be caring for your baby in the comforts of your home, however if friendly I do have a big lab that would enjoy a play date!

About: My name is Casey. I have been working with dogs professionally for about a decade in Washington state. Ran a small boarding and training business in WA. Trained hundreds of dogs with their owners in sport, obedience, group classes, service, and behavioral modification. Me and my family are moving south to the Mobile area and I am exited to start working with dogs again in a different area and meet all the new personalities the dogs have! Currently waiting on our permanent residence. We will be buying in the mobile area within a month or 2 with acreage but our current rental may not allow boarding but I can still do private training sessions and house/pet sitting. Will update this as soon as everything is set up! Kennels will be spaced apart, all dogs with behavioral problems like anxiety or reactivity will have their own quiet area. All the social dogs will get to play during the day. Every dog gets 1 on 1 time and there will be a fenced yard to rotate dogs throughout the day.
About: Worry free loving c💗re is my priority! I understand the stress of leaving my baby with a stranger but I aim to make it easier for you both! I have been told I look like the Noah’s Ark because all the animals come running to me. My friend thinks it’s because they can tell I have a good soul. I will continue any training that is already in motion and I am use to preparing meals and snacks all day long! I will do whatever it takes to make sure you and your loved one are Happy and Worry FREE! I’m currently only focusing on your pet care needs so I’m available anytime if my calendar says so even last minute plans I am available. My house is not set up yet for more animals like I wish was. I would have a zoo if I could! So, I would be coming to your lovely home to make it more comfortable for your babies. It does help them not stress out and cry as much!
About: I grew up with a Rottweiler, Labrador, and Golden Retriever. I love big breeds but I currently have a Yorkie that unexpectedly stole my heart. Any pup is welcome here, we do not discriminate :) I have taken basic training classes, and can work with your pup while I have them, if interested. My job is very flexible and my schedule is catered to my own pets. Short shifts and when not working, we are usually doing dog friendly activities. We live right beside a dog park where I’m happy to bring your baby to get their exercise in. My dog is older and enjoys frequent naps but we take at least 4 walks a day.
About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings. I do have a fenced yard for the zoomies and a neighborhood with a sidewalk for walks. I look forward to getting to know your family pets and working together :) I take bookings only when I know I will have plenty of time during your pets stay to be sure they’re being walked and supervised while running around the yard. I have a fenced in yard for letting your pets outside and a crate, if your pet is crate trained. I am happy to follow any special instructions that you may have for your pets.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always the one bringing home and caring for animals that needed extra love and attention. I even wanted to become a veterinarian — but my heart is just a little too soft when it comes to animals. Caring for pets isn’t just a side job for me — it genuinely makes me happy. I truly love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Your dog won’t just get a quick visit — they’ll get someone who genuinely enjoys being there. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and potty breaks every few hours. Your dog’s routine and comfort will always be a priority. I currently offer drop-in visits and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to stop by every few hours if needed. During each visit, I make sure your pet gets potty breaks, fresh water, feeding (if needed), and plenty of playtime and attention. I truly love spending time with dogs — whether that’s playing fetch, going for a short walk, or just giving belly rubs and keeping them company. I always follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m very clean and respectful of your home and treat every space as if it were my own. My goal is to make sure you come home to a happy pet and peace of mind.

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 Josephine. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
