About: Hi there! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, cats with all personalities, and even the occasional critters. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I pride myself on being reliable, responsive, and genuinely passionate about keeping your furry friend happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers purr—your pet is in good hands! :) I work part-time, and I’m a college student. My class schedule is 3pm-7pm Monday through Thursday, then will occasionally work on the weekends (not much) which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for your dog. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily work around your pet’s routine. My lighter schedule allows me to be attentive, present, and reliable, making sure your pup gets the love, play, and care they deserve while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I follow their usual routines closely—mealtimes, walks, play, and any special care instructions—so they feel secure and cared for. In my home, pets have cozy spots to relax, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want for my own, making sure their pet feels comforted by familiar surroundings. I always aim to give each pet the same love and care I’d give my own.
“Katrina was wonderful with my kitty cat Thelma. I was nervous about leaving for a week, but she provided me with such a peace of mind. She was prompt with her responses, took pictures of Thelma (which isn’t too easy because she’s incredibly shy and introverted), and gave me thorough updates. I highly recommend Katrina. I will only use her in the future. If she will have us!”

“Christine came on short notice to meet out crazy frenchies and then did a drop in visit with lots of pictures. She was a life saver and will definitely use again. Thank you Christine”


About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets in one household, handling high energy dogs, and administering oral medications when needed. I am very aware that every pet has their own unique personality and routine, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving pet parents complete peace of mind through reliable communication💕🐾 Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy and fits perfectly into my everyday life. I am currently unemployed so I love spending my time with my own animals, so i will love spending time with your fur baby! whether that means going on walks, playing, keeping them company, or making sure they feel comfortable while you are away. I’m able to build pet care into my routine by setting aside dedicated time for each pet’s needs and schedule. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I want them to feel happy, safe, and loved in my care. I care for every pet and home with the same respect and attention that I would want for my own. In your home, I would follow your rules / instructions closely, keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment, and maintain their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and daily care. I will always prioritize safety by making sure doors, gates, and surroundings are secure while providing plenty of love and attention.
About: We love animals and have so much love to give. Throughout our lives we have had the pleasure of caring for pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, ferrets, chickens and a horse with no name (not really it had a name but funny if you get 70's music)! We would love to offer stellar care with: • Perform grooming duties such as bathing and combing • Ensure that pets are fed and given water at proper intervals • Make sure that pets are walked several times a day to take care of their personal needs • Take instructions from pet owners regarding exercise needs and ensure that they are carried out • Accompany pets to veterinary doctor’s appointments for vaccinations • Clean litter boxes and ensure that they refilled properly • Dispense and administer medication when instructed by the pet owner • Feed fish and ensure that aquariums are cleaned and refilled • Play with pets such as cats, dogs, and rabbits to ensure that they have a feeling of companionship • Observe pets for behavior issues and report them immediately • Make sure that pet owners know of any suspected diseases or conditions that the pet may be going through • Provide positive and rewarding training to puppies and kittens Work from home so I'm here all day!! This allows for one of us to be available for pets 24/7 and we have our little olive for them to hang out with! Any type of care or special instructions your pet will need we can provide. We are an animal friendly home though and treat pets like family.
About: Since I was 10 I have had a golden retriever and a German Shephard. I’ve helped my family take care of our dogs and have also helped out with neighbors or friends to help take care of their animals. It would be a joy to help out because I would love to use my free time to be able to walk dogs. It would help me and the dog get some daily exercise. I have availability in mornings, afternoons, and evenings and am flexible with my schedule. I can stop by before 8 am, any time in the afternoon and then also after 5 pm. Although pets are not allowed in my apartment, I am willing to stop by to take care of your pets at your home! I can help with feeding, walking, playing, giving some extra love, etc!
“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: Animals have always been apart of my life, and what I would consider one of my passions. Over the years I have worked in a vet clinic that offered vet needs, grooming services, day care and kennel services. Additionally, I have worked in facility that just offered grooming, day care and kennel services. This experience allowed me to gain knowledge in animal behavior, health and overall care. Whether it’s administering meds, handling anxious pups, or just giving belly rubs, I’ve done it all. I am a dog mom myself to an 8 year old Maltese, who requires the upmost love and attention, so she has me trained very well to care for others! Whether your fur baby loves long walks, beach trips, playtime, or just someone to snuggle, or fill the food bowl- I’m here to make sure they are happy and comfortable! I treat every pet as if they’re my own- with kindness, patience and lots of love! I have a remote day job, M-F 8-4. I am more available in the morning and evenings for longer Periods of time, but can do afternoon pop Ins depending the location. I am extremely respectful of my clients homes. The reason, my attention and time is spent on your pet. I am trustworthy, and follow instructions. However, I can do light cleaning if needed, for an extra fee.
“Abigail was fantastic! We were out of town for a few days and she took great care of our pets and home. She kept us updated and clearly paid attention to our animals. One thing I especially appreciated was that she took the time to let me know about a small behavior she noticed with our cat, Salem. It wasn't a big deal, but it showed me that she was paying attention and genuinely cared. We came home to happy pets and no potty accidents from our cat. We would absolutely use Abigail again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Panama City Beach
She was wonderfull my dog, who we got during covid hasn't really been around a lot of people.And she was so happy to see her come in and see her the meet and greet went, well.The drop ins went well.I think it really helped her out a lot cause.This is the first time being alone, and we're trying to get her used to it.And Katelyn helped out tremendously i'm definitely gonna book her again when we need her

I felt very comfortable and glad to have Allison watching Honey. Allison took great care with her, was on time and flexible, allowing us to add another visit at the last minute when we realized we weren’t going to be back until late. And I loved the fact that Allison hung out with Honey, so it was way more than just a check in. Thank you, Allison!

Shree goes above and beyond! She deserves more than a 5 star review. We have had a lot of sitters over the years, and Shree has by far been the best! The communication at every visit was great. She was not intimidated by our high energy somewhat unruly pup 🐶 i highly recommend Shree.

Angela helped us out on very short notice. It's clear she cares about the pups, loves what she does, and can be trusted to do a great job. We are so glad we happened to find her among all of the available sitters. We will continue to work with her any time we have a need.

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 Beach 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.

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.

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.
