“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!”
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 can walk them and take them for a bathroom break as well. I love animals. :)
“We couldn't be happy with Sheri. We have a 9 week old German Shepherd that is full of energy and mischief. She has taken very good care of our baby. We are going to continue with her services for Wolfgang. Highly recommended!”
About: I have years of experience with dogs and cats. I have experience with reactive dogs as well as large breeds such as German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois. Big or small, I love em all. I can train basic commands as well as encourage your pet’s current skills. I have experience caring for all ages, puppy to elders, I have their back.

I currently work PRN at the hospital. My scheduling is flexible. On days I work, I can still care for your pet in the afternoon! During summer I do not have nursing classes, so I have more availability for your pets! I have a fenced back yard with space to stretch legs of all sizes! My black lab, Luna, loves to play. I can crate your dog if needed.
About: I've had dogs and horses since I can remember. Currently we have 5 dogs and 3 goats! We have had trouble finding a reliable sitter for our animals. So I decided to offer my services. We are always nervous to leave our animals in other peoples hands and that has kept us from doing a lot of traveling and other things. I want clients to feel assured that their babies will be well taken care of. Currently, as of now my schedule is wide open.. i am available at all times. I am available for all services orher than in my home. I would love to watch pets in my home we have a lot of land. However we have an elderly pitt bull rescue. He is hands down one of the sweetest dogs ive ever had But Im always cautious just in case there is that "one time". So for now, i can privide every other service.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have spent years house and pet sitting for friends and family. I am in the Army National Guard and have childcare experience, which has helped me become patient, reliable, and attentive. I am very loving and kind, and I naturally connect well with animals of all ages, including energetic puppies and senior pets. I work weekdays from 2 to 8, which allows me to be available for morning, midday, and overnight pet care. I have National Guard training one weekend each month, but I am available every other weekend to care for your pets. When caring for clients’ pets, I learn their routine and follow instructions closely to keep them comfortable and stress free. I provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and exercise based on their needs. I am happy to walk or jog with dogs and always create a safe, calm, and loving environment while you are away.

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.

“Lisa was an amazing - we were gone a few days, this was the first time I had ever left my kitten with someone that wasn’t family. I would leave him a month with Lisa! She sent pictures morning and night, left everything spotless and made the kitties feel safe. Highly reccomend her for all your animal needs. Would book her 100x over!!!”
About: I love all animals! I believe no home is complete without a pet. I’ve been caring for all kinds of animals since I was a child. I’ve had dogs, cats, mice, fish, rabbits, and turtles. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. They will be well cared for and get lots of cuddles. I am a full time teacher. During the week I am available after 4 pm for drop ins or walks. On weekends I am available any time for overnight stays, boarding, drop ins, and walks. I am able to board animals at my home during the week as well. I have a very large fenced yard and access to a doggy door. I have 2 dogs of my own in my home. One is 12 years old and the other is 1 year. Both are very friendly and get along well with other dogs. Both dogs also get along well with cats.
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.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Panama City is $20

Ashley was so great with my dogs and cat while I was away for the weekend! She took such good care of them and sent me lots of photos and updates on their care. They were happy and calm when I got home, and I will definitely be asking her to watch them again when I need to be away.
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.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Panama City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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. 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 .
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.
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.

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.
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.
