“Eric is a great sitter. I never worry about Stella when she is in his care. Eric is flexible and easy to work with. He keeps me updated on her daily. Highly recommend!”

“Monica was amazing and a total life-saver! We needed last minute boarding for our labradoodle puppy while on vacation and she responded immediately and was the absolute best! She loved on our puppy and sent updates and pictures and we knew he was having the best time! Would give more than 5 stars if we could! Thanks so much, Monica!!”

“Aaron was great! Sent daily updates and I could just tell my Nova girl was having the best time. I knew from our initial meet and greet Nova would be in good hands and was so happy she’d have some company. THANKS AGAIN AARON!”

“Our pup is always so excited when he realizes where he is! He comes home happy and tired from playing with the other pups! Jessica sends many updates and pictures so I am always at ease!”

“I was out of town for a few days, and Harvey took very good care of my puppies. When I dropped them off, they were so excited it was like they already knew him, even though it was their first time meeting him. He shared pictures of them while I was away, and they looked very happy and relaxed. When I picked them up, they still seemed so happy (aside from being excited to see me, of course!). I would recommend Harvey with no problem if you need someone kind and sweet to take care of your pets.”

“So thankful for David + Krysta. They are now our top choice when we need to leave our sweet girl behind. We were updated daily with photos and her daily events--such a breath of fresh air to be out of town and know our girl is being truly being taken care of. Poppy had a blast playing in their big backyard, making friends with their dogs, and getting all the love and playtime with their boys. Upon picking poppy up, the kids even had their friends in the neighborhood come and say bye to her because they had gotten to know her--there was something special about that! We are going out of town again in April and I'm on my way to book them again now. Poppy has found her home away from home family and we are ok with that.”

“Erin was soooo good to my Guinea pigs! She made a video collage full of pictures of my little piggies, it was so sweet. I knew I could trust her since she used to have her own Guinea pigs and she definitely did not let me down. Will definitely be asking her to watch them again!”

“Mikaela was very good at hosting my puppy . She was very understanding with my work schedule and kept me updated on her behavior and her stay . Definitely would recommend her and use her again if I’m ever back in town .”

“We had such a great experience leaving Hannah with them for seven days! They kept me updated throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. Hannah got plenty of walks and attention, and I felt very comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of. I also really appreciated that they wanted to meet Hannah beforehand to make sure it was a good fit for everyone before agreeing to watch her. I accidentally booked six days instead of seven, and they were incredibly nice and accommodating about keeping her the extra day since they had availability. I’m so thankful they were able to work with us! They were both so kind and easy to work with, and I would absolutely trust them with Hannah again. Highly recommend!”

“We were so thankful to have found Vanessa to watch our dog in her home. She has a strong background working with animals and it shows in the approach to her care. She made sure our dog was a good fit for their household & put me at ease before heading out of town. Vanessa is a great communicator and her family is extremely accommodating. Thank you for taking such great care of our sweet girl & making her part of the family while we were gone!”
“Renee is nice, her house is nice (although I didn't see the backyard so I can't comment there). She has several small dogs who played with Walter. She was good about texting pictures and communication.”

“Pamela was awesome!!!!!!!!!! I felt very comfortable the entire time I was away from my babies. I felt sure that they were being very well taken care of and had a safe, clean environment. She had all 3 of our dogs and one had never been left with anyone else before and he is 13. I was mostly worried about him but she did a great job and he was just fine. I would recommend Pamela to anyone!!!! Thanks Pamela :)”

“Laura was amazing and our little puppy loves her she communicated with us by sending videos pictures and messages during our puppy’s entire stay. I would recommend her if you would like someone that is gentle, compassionate, and professional with your pet.”

“Alexandra and crew (people, cats and a dog) were so welcoming that our two aussies were soon happy with their doggie vacation. They had very much built-in play time with the resident dog, and bonded with humans and animals alike in ways we'd not heard of from new contacts since Misty was a puppy (seriously, the pics and descriptions indicated a level of ease, happiness and playfulness we see with them at home). At pick-up time, they were glad to have us visit, but didn't seem completely ready to leave, We cannot imagine a better experience for our pups. If we manage to come to Miramar Beach again, we will definitely try Alexandra again.”

“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.”

“Ginny took great care of our pup during the new years holiday week! We felt so calm knowing our pup was in good hands while we vacationed in the area from DC. Would definitely recommend!”

“Melesie is so kind, attentive, and will treat your fur baby with the best care out there! She always sends me daily updates and pictures of my sweet pup having fun. After years of using Rover, we found the best sitter out there. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with several animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, parakeets, fish, etc.) and am very passionate about treating all animals with the love, attention, and respect that they deserve! I have volunteered at animal shelters since I was twelve years old and I worked at a doggie daycare for over 8 months before relocating for school. I have experience with puppies, administering all types of medication, and senior/disabled dog care. I have an unfenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks! I work M-F online and have school online as well, so I would be able to be home for the entirety of the booking and would be able to spend all day with them (I don't like leaving pets alone). I have a townhouse with a fenced patio and unfenced yard, but my street has a grassy pathway behind the houses away from traffic for leashed walks!
“Awesome sitter!! Andrea and her family were amazing with my Nico. She commented and updated with pics on Nico throughout his stay. I would definitely recommend and hoping she is willing to look after Nico again in the future 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mary Esther
Kalvin took good care of our dog Chico. Chico is a very happy doggie when we pick him up from Kalvin house. Kalvin takes him for walks, play with him, and comfort him during thunderstorms. We love the fact he only keeps one pet at a time. I would highly recommend using Kalvin to watch your furry baby.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From start to finish, Hannah was warm, reliable, and truly attentive to every detail. She sent regular updates and photos, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dogs absolutely adored Hannah and her roommate — I could tell from the happy tail wags and relaxed behavior when I saw all of the wonderful pictures. They went above and beyond, treating my pups like their own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Hannah. I will definitely be booking again!

Rachel was absolutely fantastic with our pup! Rachel went above and beyond to make sure our dog felt comfortable and loved while we were away. She sent us regular updates and tons of pictures, which really put us at ease. It was clear that she treated our pup like her own, giving her plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a sitter!!

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.

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.
