“Chasity went above and beyond for my two dogs! She kept me posted throughout the whole weekend on how the dogs were doing. Even stayed later than I booked, she’s amazing and I will definitely be using her in the near future! Thanks Chasity for caring for my babies like they are your own!”
“Rachel did an incredible job house sitting for a week+ with our Golden and tabby cat. She checked in with great pics and even got our pooch some toys. Thank you, Rachel, for making our trip stress-free. I appreciate you!!”
“Angelica did a great job house sitting our dogs. She was a great communicator and sent lots of updates. She cleaned up after our dogs and left our home in good order. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your pets.”
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with my boys over the 4th of July weekend! She was so responsive and sent a lot of pictures (without me prompting), which let me know they were in the perfect hands! Hands down recommend her for any of your pets/furbabies! But especially if you have an older border collie mix with a strange personality—she handled him with grace and love. Definitely book with Jenna!”
“Katherine does an amazing job! Our dog is a bit difficult with new and unfamiliar faces, especially for house sitting, but he warmed up to Katherine almost immediately! This is our second time having her watch our doggo and 10/10, will use again!!! :)”
“Kerry was great to have house sit for Murphy, who is a 12 yo chihuahua. She sent pictures everyday and he looked very content! I would recommend Kerry to anyone looking in the area. I will definitely use Kerry again!!”
“Christine was awesome! She was so good with our little guy and helped him settle into a new place. I booked way in advanced and she was the first sitter that did not cancel and checked in with me. 10/10 would recommend!”
“did an amazing job with our cats! my husband and i are very protective of our cats and not once did we worry about them potentially not being ok. they send lots of pics everyday and genuinely care about your animals! they are very good at responding to texts quickly and will provide whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with them being with your pet :). 10/10 would use again.”
About: I’ve been pet/house sitting since I was 13! I have experience from puppies and kittens to senior pets in diapers! I am very open to adjusting to whatever you and your pet needs to feel the most comfortable while you’re away! I am pretty flexible! I work a job at Orangetheory Fitness in Destin. Sometimes that means a few hours in the mornings or evenings I need to be at work. If necessary I’m able to find coverage fairly easily. I also do training at Eglin airforce base some days which can take a few hours of my time. Again, that is also fairly flexible when it comes to scheduling! I love to stay active-so I’m always up for making sure your pets are well cared for with the time I have around my commitments! I am more than happy to stay overnight with your pet if needed. Or, if your dog does well with others I would be happy to have them in mine. I am very flexible when it comes to arrangements for your pets care!
“Kelly is amazing! She takes care of our home and pets as if they were her own! To be able to leave and rest assure things are safe in her hands is absolutely wonderful! We can relax while we are away. She send updates, photos, and lets us know if something comes up. When we plan our trips, we now have to make sure she is available!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10 years old. Family, friends, neighbors, and strays. I have a love for pet of all kind. I have feed, walked, and played with them. I work full-time during the school year and want to add pet care to what I do during the school year and during the summers. During the school year I fit it in on the weekend. During the summer I have much more availbility. I take care of my clients pets by checking and refill food and water, exercise and attention. I do not bathe pets, But I do walk, play, and talk to them. Giving them the love and attention they need.
About: I recently left teaching profession to care for my 88 year old mom. My husband, Rob, was USAF grad and former 26 year Special Ops pilot. We traveled and had many animals over the years. We've been married 43 years. Now we have small farm in the country with she, hogs, dogs, cats, chickens and more. However i stay in a home currently with my handicapped mom about 10 minutes away. I recently moved off farm and into my mom's home due to her care. I care for my daughter's two dogs until she is out of nursing school next year. A 4 year old Pembroke Corgi named Cash, and a 12 year boxer named Sassy. We are located just north of Crestview, in Heritage Plantation. There is a huge yard, and a sectioned area for separation if needed and to keep main area of back yard free of "poo". Plenty of space, and company for any dogs so they won't miss owners too much. I currently have flexible schedule with substituting and real estate. I am home consistently. I will be home most days of the week. Your dog will be loved on by my mom and I. I have 3/4 acre yard which has been sectioned off into two zones for dogs to do their business and the rest for play. I also have two kennels for sleeping or separating if needed. There is a clean and soft camp mattress available for your pet at will. Plenty of toys and my daughter's two dogs are calm yet playful.
About: Hey there! I’m LeeAnn 🙃 I’m here to help with your cutest, cuddly kitty and sweetest pupper needs! Whether I’m popping in for potty breaks, a quick stroll or making sure Whiskers can’t see there’s an empty spot in the food bowl (Cat parents, am I right?) Honestly I’m looking for something that allows the ability to create my own “flexible” schedule and be more present for my kiddos..the less furrier ones, although they act like wild animals! 🤪 I follow the instructions of the owners requests! In the summertime I am very mindful of the heat* I take a lot of shorter walks for the safety of myself and the dog - I want them to get their energy out but also don’t want the hot pavement burning their paws and/or a heat stroke for the animal nor myself. A lot of inside play consist of toy play! But again, I’m always going to be mindful of owner requests/demands

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 276 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mossy Head. 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 Mossy Head 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 Mossy Head 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 Mossy Head 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 Mossy Head. On Rover:

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.
