“Dawn really came through for us. We are new to the area and needed a sitter last minute as the sitter that was scheduled was no longer available. Dawn was patient with our girls and I could tell they really enjoyed when she visited.”
“Lisa was a pleasure to work with. She came a few days ahead to meet our three cats. She engaged with them right away. Every day she checked on them twice a day and sent me updates. When we returned after two days the cats were happy and not stressed. We would love to work with her again.”

I provide dog sitting, walking, bathing, doggy daycare and overnight boarding! I’m home full time with my own animals & two daughters each day. I have my schedule set on the calendar to show my availability for the month which usually has open availability. i have a fenced backyard & 3 dogs of my own to keep yours company. if you prefer to crate, i can do that. i have a doggy door that leads to the backyard, i understand that some clients may not want this and that’s okay! i can take them on walks and supervise backyard play. My dogs are very friendly, playful and have gotten used to dogs coming and going for dog boarding services!
“Matt goes above and beyond to provide care for your pet, even if it means scratches from a scared cat. He’s kind, thoughtful, communicates well, and is an exemplary example of a fantastic pet sitter. Thank you!!”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. Through this, I have developed a great love for animals. In addition to caring for my own family's pets, I started caring for our friends’ and neighbors’ pets from a young age. I am here to help out in any way that I can so that your pets always feel loved! I am currently residing in Pensacola but I work full time Monday through Friday in Gulf Breeze/Navarre. I do work full time two days in Navarre and three days in Gulf Breeze. I work in the school system and can be available anytime after 3:30 most days or early mornings. On the weekends I am much more open. I currently have a cat in my home so I only do housesitting, drop-ins, and walks at this time. I have recently moved to the Pensacola area. I mainly watch people’s pets in their home where I believe animals are most comfortable. I take notes and advice from owners seriously when it comes to their pets routines and behaviors.
About: My name is Tishara, and I’m from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have volunteered with multiple humane societies for over a year, where I worked with a wide variety of pets and learned a great deal about animal behavior, care, and compassion. I’ve also had the opportunity to travel abroad for work, and whenever I’m back home, I truly enjoy working with Rover and reconnecting with pets in my community. While I was away, my dog Teddi who had been by my side for 11 years passed away in October 2025. Losing him was incredibly hard, that was really my baby🥺but being part of Rover has brought me comfort by allowing me to continue giving love, care, and attention to other animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with the same patience, respect, and affection I would want for them. I am an animal lover and genuinely enjoy spending time building trust with each companion. I look forward to continuing to grow my experience with you while providing dependable, loving care for both companions and their owners. I work a part-time schedule Wednesday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., which allows me to be flexible and intentional with pet care. On workdays, I build pet care into my mornings and evenings by providing meals, refreshing water, and spending quality time through walks or play before and after work. Once I’m home, I dedicate time to longer walks or more active engagement to ensure pets receive the exercise and attention they need. On my days off and weekends, I have even more availability for extended care, including longer outings, park visits, grooming, socialization, and vet appointments if needed. I stay consistent with feeding, cleaning, and routine schedules, and I always make sure pets feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for, even during busy weeks. When caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I follow a consistent routine that includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and any special care based on the pet’s needs, such as medication or grooming. I also make sure the space is secure and enriched with toys, comfort items, and plenty of interaction to keep pets happy and stress-free.
“Felicia was amazing!! God she did me such a tremendous request, looking after my cat last minute for a week, was so kind and patient with me as a new customer (and as someone who was a mess and under a lot of stress lmao); she is fantastic!! I would recommend her to anybody!! And my cat is in perfect health, happy, and taken care of!! If you want somebody professional while also courteous and thorough, Felicia is the gal!! Thanks again girl ;^D”
About: Ever since I was a kid I’ve loved dogs. I had hands on experience 3+ years of taking care of a Brussels griffin/terrier mix. Taking her on walks rain or shine, feeding her, bathing her etc. I also volunteer at Big Dog Rescue Ranch. I am a flight attendant with a fluctuating schedule. But any time I am local and in the area I’m available to walk your pups, check in on them, make sure they are happy, healthy, well fed, and still feeling the love in your absence. I am not currently available for house sitting at my home , but I am available for drop in visits in your home. I’m here to walk your pup, take them to the park, play with them, feed them etc.
About: Trish and Matt have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, boarding, and animal rescue. Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, and our goal has always been simple: make every dog in our care feel like part of the family. Through my experience in animal rescue, I’ve also worked extensively with dogs who have behavioral challenges and medical conditions. I’m comfortable caring for dogs who may need a little extra patience, understanding, or specialized attention, and I have experience administering medications both orally and by injection. We understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. When your dog stays with us, they aren’t just another boarding client — they become part of our family while they’re here. ❤️🐾 Pet care is already a big part of our everyday routine. With more than 20 years of experience in boarding and animal rescue, our days naturally revolve around caring for dogs. We’re home much of the time, which allows us to provide plenty of individual attention, regular potty breaks, feeding on each dog’s normal schedule, playtime, and lots of love. We structure our routine around the dogs in our care so they can feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home while their family is away. Our number one priority is always safety, comfort, and individual attention. We have a securely fenced yard, and dogs are given their own scheduled outdoor and exercise time. We are always outside supervising when dogs are in the yard and never leave them outside unattended. We provide multiple feeding times each day based on each dog’s normal routine, along with treats throughout the day. Each night, we tuck everyone in with a special bedtime treat. ❤️ We provide food, bowls, blankets, beds, and other necessities to help make their stay as comfortable as possible, although families are always welcome to bring their dog’s favorite things from home. Most importantly, we take the time to learn each dog’s personality and needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where every dog is cared for as if they were our own. 🐾
About: I’ve always had cats and dogs growing up. I am very passionate about taking care of animals and plan to go into veterinary school! Everyone in my life knows if they need anyone to take care of their pets I’m the first person to call! I am currently in school but I am available every morning until 12:00 pm and again after 3:30 pm. I am also available every weekend all day. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs (3yrs and 1yr) and 2 cats. They are all very friendly and my dogs love to play.
About: Hello! I’m a Pensacola local that recently loved back to town from California! I’m looking to meet new people and spice up my life with some regular dog playtime :). I have an orange tabby cat that I rescued, but I grew up with dogs! My family had dachshunds, pitbull mixes, & brindles! I still take care of my childhood dogs occasionally. Definitely reach out if you feel like I would be a good fit for your family’s needs! Open to all day Sunday. Open most of Saturday. Weekly schedUle varies, but open partially Monday and Fridays. Please reach out to see if I our schedules align! Hello! I am a pet owner myself and I would always want to take care of someone else’s pet the way I would except someone to take care of my cat! I grew up with animals and I see them as clear members of the family. I have my cat’s routine down, but would be happy to learn the routines of your pets!
“10/10, great dog sitter. Had zero issues and received all the updates and pictures we wanted. Kelcie took the time to meet our dogs beforehand, handled our dogs’ medications, and was very easy to communicate with. I can’t recommend her enough other than to selfishly keep her open to provide for our own requested dates of service!!!”
About: I am a life-long animal lover and have always had several pets in my life at any given time. I have often cared for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family - from cats and dogs to chickens to reptiles - not to mention the occasional stray that has come home with me while their family was located. I am experienced with tasks from feeding to bathing to administering medications. I teach at the college level and have summers off. I love my time off but like the idea of pet care to stay busy and active. My summer schedule is wide open and ready to fill with walks, feedings, playtime, and whatever else your pets may need. I believe that maintaining a regular schedule of care for your pets is the most beneficial to their comfort and well-being. Therefore, I focus on following the schedule of feedings, medications, walks, and playtime that you lay out for me. I also place high importance on treating your home and pets as I would my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pace
On Sunday, our labrador wasn't feeling well but we had tickets to the last Blue Wahoos home game of the season. Lacey was so kind and nurturing with Maggie. She made sure Maggie stayed hydrated and got short bursts of appropriate playtime even though the weather was very hot That's why Lacy has been our go-to dog sitter for over a year.
I sure lucked out! I booked for the first time and at the last minute. I found Kate and she was absolutely wonderful with my doggies! She played, loved on them and even cleaned up their room & kennels. My dogs are like my kids and I was grateful that I could go out of town and they would be well taken care of. Will book again!
Joy, took care of our two dogs while on vacation. She was absolutely amazing , our babies love her , she played with them , took on walks , fed and gave medication .

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pace is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $32 per visit. 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 998 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pace. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
