As for clients homes, whatever is requested of me by the client, I will give 100% to make sure you, your fur baby and your home are taken care of. I work full time. I am available on weekdays after 6pm and all weekends and holidays as I do not travel much. I am very much a home body. My daughter and love to walk and bike.

“Kathryn was very easy to get along with and she has a clear love of cats. She sent short but clear daily updates of feedings, cleanings, and how my cat was doing and interacting with her.”
About: I grew up in a house with animals for as long as I can remember, from dogs, cats, to snails. I have experience with all kinds of breeds, from working hunting dogs to the most suborn bassets. Am always looking for a new (furry) friend to keep me active. Currently working part time, with very adjustable schedule. Very happy to stop by at all hours, rain or shine. Always happy for the excuse to leave the house and get active. Respectfull of all boundaries, pet and human alike. Always willing to bring my own treats, and spoil your animals in whatever way you seem fit.
“Darsy was absolutely amazing with my 16-week-old puppy. She was consistently reliable, punctual, and genuinely caring. It's clear she loves dogs! We hope to rebook her when she’s back in our neck of the woods.”
“Alexis was very flexible and kept us up to date. We had to make last minute changes to our travel plans and she worked with us very well. She took very good care of our little pup :) Thank you Alexis!”
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: I am a lifelong dog owner, and I love to see dogs getting the exercise they need in a safe way! My 3 year old pit/lab mix is high energy, and I know the difference a walk can make. I am currently able to walk dogs after 5pm or weekends. I would like to move into full time walking when possible. Thank you for your consideration. I always consider safety first with my own dog. I believe that play and walk time can always be safe and fun. I am very cautious with traffic and around other animals.
“Devon went above expectations. He spent extra time with my boy and played with him and gave him all his attention. I will absolutely use him in the future. Having a very large pitbull, requires a special person and he did an excellent job!”
“Jennifer is so nice and was great with my two cats! I felt comforted knowing that she was there to take care of them while I was gone. Would definitely book her again in the future :)”
“Marie was excellent! I was really nervous since this was my first time using the app but she calmed all of my fears. During the drop ins, she was always giving us updates with pictures and my pups absolutely adored her. Will definitely be using her again!!”

“Sharon took care of my three cats like they were her own. She went to great lengths to spend time with them at her visits and followed my directions explicitly. She administered insulin to my diabetic cat twice daily and made sure he was perfectly cared for. There is no price you can put on the security of knowing your babies are safe and cared for”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mary Esther
I had a great experience and would definitely book again! I needed a sitter on short notice, and they were incredibly accommodating and responsive. They followed all of my care instructions carefully and even reached out with thoughtful questions to make sure everything was done correctly. I especially appreciated them checking in about my dog’s lunchtime meal; I had almost forgotten to mention it, and their attention to detail gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they’re looking after. Thank you for taking such great care of my dog!
Nancy is amazing! She has been doing week day daily drop-ins for my Suzie for over a month now. She is super reliable and just wonderful with Suzie. She gives her lots of love and pets and takes her on walks. Suzie just loves her and her sweet mini me! I highly recommend Nancy! She is very attentive and trustworthy. I have long days and she is very flexible with scheduling and sometimes will come for 2 drop-ins in 1 day. Her help is so appreciated and I really can't say enough great thing about her! 😊
Kendall was a fabulous pet sitter, she took great care of all three pets. She walked and fed my dogs daily, and gave my cat plenty of attention. Kendall was fantastic. Great communication, sweet with the animals, and I came home to happy pets and a tidy house. Highly recommend!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Mary Esther 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
