Kinsey and her family are awesome! They treated Oreo like their own, he received the best care while we were gone. She provided updates and sent pictures. I highly recommend her and I definitely will book her again in the future.

Reya is amazing! I left my dog with her for 2 weeks, and I have never felt so reassured and comfortable. This isn't something I've done often and was so hard for me to leave Woody for 2 weeks, but Reya was so patient and it was so obvious she cared. Will 100% book with her again and recommend her to anyone who wants a trusted and caring person to look after their dog.

About: Experienced with a variety of pets, personalities, and temperaments, including pets with different routines and needs. I’m dependable, attentive to detail, comfortable with walks and exercise, and experienced with administering medications when needed. You can count on me to follow your instructions carefully and provide consistent, responsible and loving care. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to spend more time with your pet throughout the day. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care rather than simply stopping by and rushing off. I prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow your instructions, keep pets secure and supervised, and pay close attention to their behavior, routines, and individual needs. My goal is for you to feel completely confident knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: My name is Alexandria, and I absolutely love all the pups! I would love to care for your fur baby and get all the cuddles while you enjoy your time away! I’ve got 8+ years experience being a kennel tech and would be better accommodated if I could do it remotely. I haven’t met an animal yet that I didn’t love caring for! I work for Bay District Schools so I am off for the summer and have plenty of free time and am accommodated to sit small breed dogs. I have a 3 month old miniature schnauzer and a 5 month old plott hound beagle mix that are the light of my life aside from being a mom! I sit for family and friends but am looking to expand. I can care for pets in-home, and can be available for house visits. I’m very experienced in nail trimming and bathing. I do not offer grooming services but will if necessary.

About: Yes, I mean all of them! Pet care is my full time hobby and job. I have experience with nearly every kind of pet, from cats and dogs of any size to birds, fish, and exotics like reptiles, amphibians, and inverts! 🐈🐟🦎 I started caregiving when I was 14 and my love for animals has truly shaped who I am today at 20. I feel gifted for each and every 4 or more-legged family member I get to meet! 💗 I'm available any day, any time! If I'm not spending time with someone else's pet for work, then I'm hanging out with my own. This is my life and my passion 💖 I have a large, fenced in yard, a friendly dog and 2 cats for your babies to hang out with! There are two young children (7&9) at my house who are ready to assist in giving endless amounts of attention and play to your energetic pets in addition to quiet areas for those who are more shy to stay comfortable! 😊 Of course, toys and treats provided 💕

About: I have had dogs all my life. I take care of my Son's Golden Retriever, who lives next door to me very often. I personally own a rescue that I have had for 7 years now. I have always had a dog in my home. I am retired and available at any time with some notice. I have an automatic waterer on my back porch in the shade. I have a ceiling fan on the back porch as well. My house is an older concrete block home built in 1974, it was sturdy enough to withstand Michel without any damage. Yard is all grass and kept cut, plenty of room to run and roam. I have a fenced yard and one dog who gets along well with other dogs. I am home all day except for days I have a DR appointment.

About: As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve been taking care of pets since I was very young and have worked with animals requiring special care, including administering medications. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member, so I always provide frequent updates to keep you connected and reassured. Whether it’s a playful pup or a cuddly cat, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural and important part of our everyday life—it’s something my whole family truly enjoys. We have a very flexible schedule, so we’re able to provide care during the week, on weekends, and even at night if needed. I work part-time just four days a week from 7 AM to 2 PM, and I’m home for the rest of the day. Even while I’m at work, my husband is always home, so your pet will never be left without loving attention. Between the two of us, we’re able to give your pet the time, care, and affection they deserve. Caring for animals is already a big part of our day—we have pets of our own—so welcoming your furry friend into our routine will feel completely natural. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or walks, your pet will be treated like family and showered with love while they’re with us. I live in a cozy 3 bedroom home, with a large back yard that is completely fenced in with tall privacy fencing, perfect for playtime and fresh air. My family—an animal-loving husband, my playful 10-year-old son, and my adoring 5-year-old—are all eager to welcome your pet into our home. Our German Shepherd, Ava, loves making new dog friends, while our cuddly cats, Jocko and Trunks, are gentle and sweet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I ensure a loving and secure environment for them to feel right at home. I can also crate your dog if needed to meet their preferences or your instructions.

About: I have taken care of both small and large pets, as well as aggressive breeds. I am also familiar with administering medicine to animals as I grew up with several pets that had medical needs. Additionally, in college, I fostered a dog for the first time. I absolutely loved the experience and it made me more familiar with rescue animals and their tendencies. Please keep in mind that I have a 14 year old Australian Terrier (like Todo from the Wizard of Oz) at home should you request boarding. She is very easy going with other dogs, but I kindly ask that other pets be the same. I am a college student who is currently home for the summer. I have a remote internship online and can be very flexible with my schedule in order to care for your furry friends! I understand that our pets are members of our families and deserve all the attention and care we can possibly give me. I take this to heart and do my best to ensure they are well cared for so that you may enjoy your time away, without worry. With that said, I am respectful of the fact that you are entrusting me with your pet and your home. It is my top priority to make sure everyone feels comfortable and safe with the situation.

This kind lady is a doggie magnet. Our sometimes aggressive dog was calm and at ease in Fabricia's care. She sent us photos during our vacation showing him having sun baths and loving his life. You don't need to be nervous, as in our case we'd never left him with unknown people. She was wonderful and I recommend her highly!

Cathryn was very prompt in getting everything set up and arranging a meet and greet. She was accommodating as we prepared for the drop off. She kept us updated and sent pictures while we were out of town. It was obvious he was happy/content in staying with Cathryn. She was again accommodating for the pickup. I would recommend Cathryn as a caregiver for your pup.

Taylor was absolutely one of the best dog sitters I’ve ever had! She kept me reassured throughout my pup’s entire stay and treated him like one of her own. She sent lots of photos, videos, and updates on how he was doing, which I really appreciated. It was clear that she genuinely cared about him and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I’m so grateful I found Taylor, and I will definitely be booking with her again. I highly recommend her, she’s the best! ❤️🐾

Shannon was absolutely fabulous! My husband and I were in town to have our wedding with all of our friends and family and had planned on keeping our sweet baby with us but decided it would be best to find someone to watch him since we would be so busy over those few days. I was super nervous leaving my buddy but Shannon reassured me and even checked in throughout the few days she had him and she even sent picture updates! She was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for all you did!

Brittany is an answer to my prayers. My baby does not do well in boarding situations with all the dogs barking and being locked in a cage. So, I found Brittany and she is perfect for my baby. Plenty of love and attention. When I got her home it was like I had never been gone. We found our person❤️So grateful

FAQs for Boarding - Panama City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Panama City on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 131 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Panama City. About 90% of Panama City sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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 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.

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
