About: I've worked as an emergency veterinary technician for the past 6 years, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. My experience includes administering medications, recognizing signs of illness or emergencies, caring for senior pets, puppies, and pets with chronic medical conditions. I understand pet behavior and know how to keep animals calm, comfortable, and safe. Whether your pet needs a let out to potty, medications administered, or someone experienced with special medical needs, I'll treat them like they're my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work overnight shifts at a clinic, which gives me flexibility during the week to care for pets. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week, and I do my best to accommodate each pet owner's schedule. I provide dependable care and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a single mom, pets staying in my home must be friendly and comfortable around respectful children as well with other animals. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised environment, follow your pet's routine closely, and can accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and other special instructions. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Angela was very communicative while checking on my cat and even went so far as to bring in packages when my mail hold didn't take! Lovely sitter and I'll definitely be using her again.”
About: I have experience taking care of cats and dogs of all ages. I provide personalized, attentive care in a safe, loving home environment. I send daily photo updates, follow your exact instructions, and ensure your pets feel comfortable and happy while you’re away! I am available every day of the week. I can walk dogs as needed. I provide specialized care and make sure each pet is given what they need each day to be happy. I have a fully fenced backyard for the dogs to run around and play. I have toys and treats. I have a crate available in my home if needed.
About: I have had taken care of/lived with various dog breeds, and have walked and raised dogs since I can remember. I recently began volunteering at Alaqua walking and playing with dogs, and I have experience dog sitting and walking my neighbors dogs. I have worked with puppies, middle aged dogs, older dogs, both big and small! I love dogs unconditionally and I will do everything in my power to ensure they stay spoiled and happy :). I work part-time closing shifts at my job, so I am available for early mornings and late nights. I work whenever I am scheduled, but I am always off on Wednesdays! My normal shift is normally 4pm-10pm, so I am available to dog sit, check-in, or walk before and after my shift! I cannot care for pets at my own home, but I will ensure that when I come to your home, I will keep it looking good as new. I am a chronic dish washer if any dishes or slight cleaning needs to be made. I am also no stranger to accidents that dogs are prone to, as one of my past dogs had a sensitive stomach, especially when it came to my carpeted floors. I will do whatever your dog wants to do, but my favorite aspect of it all is to ensure that the dog is happy and to make a connection with them. I love being active and playing, but I can also just simply snuggle up with them.
About: I have always had pets! I have helped a dog give birth before. As well as trained several different breeds of dogs! I have also trained one cat to sit. I don't have a job right now so I'm available with little notice on weekdays and moderate notice on weekends! I will try to answer to everyone promptly I clean my cats litter boxes every other day and take my leash trained cat on a walk at least once a day! I can clean accidents, and litter boxes. I have no trouble following a feeding schedule or administering medication, I've given both dogs and my cats medicine in the past.
“Eva did a wonderful job dropping in on our cat, Mako. Beyond making sure he had food, water, and a clean litter box, she took the time to play and cuddle with him. Eva sent a descriptive update and a photo with every visit. It was so nice to know he had someone to look forward to each morning!”
About: I have had pets in my life ever since I was little. So I love helping take care of them. I also am very good with puppies and teaching them new tricks, and helping with potty train. I also love helping keep dogs very active, or just chill with them and cuddle! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of free time. All days of the week are good for me. I’m even available on weekends if needed. I have a fenced in backyard. I also have a dog of my own, who loves to play with others and gets along with all sizes. He loves to share his toys or just play together. Or if it’s in your own home, anywhere your fur baby loves to play! I also have dog parks around for your baby to play with or without others, and a nice neighborhood to walk around. Or we can walk around your neighborhood as well!
“Skylynn did a special request stay for me, spending two hours with my dogs. My Great Pyrenees had oral surgery two days ago and I didn’t want him ripping out his stitches again out of anxiety from being put into his crate. She was wonderful with my three dogs, playing outside and giving them all the love they demanded.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and a few dogs since I was 8. I helped a newborn kitten and nurtured him back to life. I’ve had a bearded dragon and I now have a fish. I’m available mostly week days after 2 and weekends after 2. I do have a few days off during the week like Wednesday and Thursday and sometimes fridays I can take care of your baby easily.

I promise to give your baby the love and attention he/she needs and deserves because they are babies with fur coats and should be treated like it. I will do whatever needed in my clients home, check on your pets at your home or your pets can stay at my home. I have my own pack myself.
About: Hello! I’m Ashley! I’m a stay at home mom to an energetic and bright eyed little boy and the wife of a hardworking firefighter.

Growing up my family had our fair share of pets around from cats and dogs to ducks and lizards! Every time my family and I have to go out of town- we always struggle to find pet sitters! So, I thought I’d offer my services here on Rover to help out my fellow pet parents! I know how difficult it can be to find a trusting pet sitter. Pets definitely become a part of the family- so please know that I will treat your fur baby with the utmost care as if they were my own. I offer in home doggy day care and overnight sitting as well as dog walks, feeding/watering and making your pup comfy while you’re away! My family and I are very active- which is good news for those pups with lots of energy! We love hikes, biking, beach walks and dog parks! My son loves playing fetch with the pups- so he will be great entertainment for your fur baby! Upon leaving your pet with us- we ask that you leave with us emergency contact info and vet information, as well as any special medications, foods or comfort toys or objects etc. I believe every animal is unique and should be treated as so! I can’t wait to meet your pup!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Panama City
Aubrey was THE BEST!! Took a little get away and had zero stress knowing she was taking such good care if my babies. Came home to the house just as I had left it and the pups were happy to stay home vs the kennel. Very pleased and hope she is always available for my next little getaway 😀
Jessie has been absolutely amazing. My dogs are a bit of a handful and I was a little worried about introducing a new person into their routine but it hasn't been an issue at all. It has been such a relief having someone dependable and caring that can drop in on them and I don't have to be concerned about it! Thank you Jessie!
Katherine took the absolute best care of our Spud!!! She was so attentive to him and followed every note I left behind as worried fur mom leaving her baby for the first time. They seemed to have formed a great bond which makes me extremely happy as well. Even with the challenges he presents walking (because I know we still have work to do with him there) she was able to cope and face them wonderfully. She even paid attention to my cat when he was not necessarily her responsibility to look after and I can not thank her enough for her service!
I’ve been using Kiersten for a couple of years now, and I can confidently say she’s been amazing every single time. She is reliable, consistent, and truly cares about the animals. During her visits, she makes sure each pet gets the attention, care, and affection they need. It’s clear that my animals genuinely love her, and that peace of mind means everything.

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 Panama City 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.
To find sitters in Panama City with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
