“Romy had a great time! It’s been about a year and half. Romy felt at home and David and Krysta took great care of her. I also think she enjoys hanging with their 4 legged family too!”


“Elizabeth took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. She kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and paid close attention to his needs. Our dog has separation anxiety, and Elizabeth was incredibly patient and compassionate. She made sure he got his daily walks, encouraged him to eat when he was struggling, and treated him like one of her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Juniper had a lovely weekend while we were away and Anna sent many photos from their time together. Anna was very communicative and accommodated our drop off & pick up times.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was old enough to scoop food into a bowl! I have always had cats and dogs and can’t imagine life without them. I currently have a cat and Goldendoodle of my own. I recently transitioned into a low stress remote job, giving me plenty of time to take my pup on walks and to the park. Prior to this, I dealt with finding the daily time to give my own pets the exercise and attention they deserve. I am more than happy to give others the relief I found from pet sitting/walking since I have a lot more time on my hands! I am happy to make any accommodations needed when caring for pets in their own homes, and strive to keep them as comfortable and in routine as possible! As someone who also needs pet sitters when traveling, I know the importance of feeling confident with who is caring for your pets. Whatever I can do to make them happy, just say the word!
“I'm so grateful for Nichole and her family taking care of my baby and accepting him on a short notice. He felt right at home. This is the first time I used Rover, and I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving him with her. The messages of updates and photos or videos were also a wonderful touch, knowing he was well taken care of.”

“Liznel is an Amazing Sitter. She made Ziggy & me feel so Comfortable. This was the first time I ever left Ziggy. She sent pictures every day. I Definitely Recommend Liznel. It was so nice to travel Knowing that Ziggy was in good hands. Also it was so nice to have Ziggy picked up & dropped off. I will definitely be using her again. Amazing Dog sitter”


“Ashlea took care of my dog Suki this past weekend after I contacted her on very short notice. We scheduled a meet-and-greet the same day I reached out. During our weekend vacation, she sent me several cute pictures of my dog with quick updates on how she's doing and settling in. I'm grateful I found her on Rover. We'll definitely be back for more mini-vacations. Thank you for taking care of our sweet dog, Ashlea & Family”

“Very happy with Naomi. We felt very comfortable with her upon first meeting. So much so that we requested minimal updates during our mini vacation. Sheeba immediately took to her as did Naomi to her. We definitely plan to use her in the future.”

About: We are newer to the Niceville area but we have had dogs all of our life! We are very active and take our lady girl everywhere we go (walks, on the boat, restaurants, car rides etc). Lady gets along super well with other dogs. Lizzy works from home so can accommodate drop in visits and boarding and any care you may need for your dog. Lots of pictures and updates to assure that you know your pup is in good hands! We would love to take care of your furry friend for a day/night/week/weekend! Lizzy works from home so is super flexible ! Lady goes everywhere with us as she is not just a pet, but a member of our family! We strive to go above and beyond to make your pet feel comfortable and safe! Multiple walks and TLC are a must! We will keep you updated on how your pet is doing while you're away with daily pictures and updates so you feel good about their stay.
“Barbara was an excellent caregiver for my baby, Cody. We both learned that Cody has separation anxiety as he is never away from his family. Barbara worked through it and made the environment comfortable for him as she could see he was stressed out and depressed. She sent messages, pics and videos to ease my mind. Barbara is amazing and should be commended for her patience with our babies.”

“Kayla & Richard were awesome, and super easy to work with! Our pup loved her pool time and playing with their kids and other dogs. It was like she was at summer camp! :) We were grateful to know that she was in great hands, being well-cared for and having a good time while we were away!”

“This was our first time using Rover and everything was so simple and fast. Schyrita was great and gave us updates on our fur baby. I will definitely use her again, next time we are in town.”

“Robert and his wife have been so awesome! We’ve used them multiple times and our dogs are always excited and run right in to his home when we drop them off. We are sad we’re moving and won’t be able to keep using them!”

“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.”


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
“Jeannette and her family were great! They gave my pup lots of love and playtime while I was away. She communicated well and was good with keeping me updated on how my pup was doing!”

“Million and her 2 sons took great care of our dog over the weekend. She sent a bunch of pictures and videos every day; and it was obvious he was getting lots of attention and play time. I know he enjoyed it and we look forward to using her again in the future.”

About: I love animals. All of them! I have always loved animals since I was a little girl. I love spending time with animals, loving on them, playing with them and teaching them new tricks! It would be a privilege to care and love on your furbaby while you are at work, out of town or just need a few hours to yourself! I prefer to stay local in the Niceville,FL area. I am willing to accomodate Destin but depends how far the client is. Let me care for your furry family member today! Now that I am a stay at home mother and wife, I have a lot more free time to devote in caring for your pet. My schedule is pretty flexible so don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have! I would be more than excited to love on your furry friend today! I have a fenced in yard with ample room for your pet to roam around in. I also am able to crate your pet if need be. You would just need to provide the crate and anything else you would want your pet to have to make sure his/her stay is a comfortable one.

“Allison took very good care of our Duke! Upon pickup, you could tell that he enjoyed himself while we were away. We will continue to go with Allison time and time again!”

“Gabrielle took amazing care of our dog while we were away on vacation. She even tailored special meals that would be more palatable for our pup due to medical needs. I would definitely use Gabrielle in the future.”

Anna was amazing with Pepe! I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone I didn’t know, but she made me feel so much better by keeping me updated and giving him lots of cuddles. She took such great care of him, and we couldn’t be happier with her. We would definitely recommend Anna! ❤️🐾

We had such a great experience! Cheryl took care of our sweet Aurora for a week while we were out of town, and with a hurricane coming through, we were especially nervous about being away. She was amazing about keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind knowing Aurora was safe and well cared for. She also administered Aurora’s oral medication, which was a huge help and one less thing for us to worry about. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Aurora and would absolutely trust her to watch her again! Highly recommend!

This was our first time booking with Sariah and our first time ever leaving our dog with someone, so we were naturally a little nervous. Sariah went above and beyond to make both my husband and me feel comfortable and at ease. She took such amazing care of Juliet, kept us updated, and sent us pictures throughout her stay. If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Sariah is absolutely the person to go to! She was literally AMAZING, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful we found her and will definitely be booking with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to their fur baby!

We had a wonderful experience having Maya stay with Rosie and her family in their home. From the start, we felt very comfortable leaving Maya in their care. She received daily walks, lots of attention, and clearly felt right at home. Rosie and her family did an excellent job communicating with us and sent us photos every day, which we really appreciated and enjoyed seeing while we were away. Knowing Maya was happy, comfortable, and well cared for gave us great peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely use Rosie and her family again. Highly recommended!

We had a great experience with Jeannette. She took wonderful care of my dog. I live in an area that has no reliable pet care, so my dog travels with me and stays with a local sitter. I’m always a little nervous, but Jeannette was very communicative prior to and great from our first meet. I would definitely use her again if I travel back to Destin.

We had a great experience! Ginny was very nice, kept us updated with pictures, and took great care of Cali and Diego. They’re both completely knocked out today, so I’m pretty sure they had a great time! 😂 We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Niceville is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Niceville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Niceville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Niceville home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Niceville.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Niceville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , 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 .
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
