“Aaron is amazing!! Our girls loved being with him and his family. He went above and beyond by providing super detailed info about their walk breaks and if they peeped or pooped. But the absolute BEST part was his super artistic photos of the girls!!! Works of art!!”
“I highly recommend Valerie. This was my first time using Rover and was apprehensive about leaving our fur baby with someone I didn't know. Not only did she take wonderful care of Brea but she sent multiple pictures showing us how her day was going. When you meet Valerie you can see how passionate she is with the animals she cares for. Valerie is very welcoming, and after meeting her you will feel like shes a good friend you have had most of your life.”
“Katrina was wonderful! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time. I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her! 💕”
“Abbey did a great job taking care of our baby Zeus. We worked with her 2 days straight and thanks to her we were able to enjoy Panama City with and without Zeus.”
“Jessie was able to watch our two dogs last minute. Our dogs loved the pool and back yard. It was the perfect place for our dogs while we did beach stuff. I highly recommend Jessie for doggy daycare”
“LAN was wonderful to work with and we really can feel that she cares about our pups! For this stay they camped out at her house while we had contractors doing work. They reported back it was fun and relaxing! 😎”
About: I’ve cared for and have loved animals of all sizes and kinds since I can remember. I grew up taking care of 20+ horses on a farm and always having multiple dogs. I spent over 2 years working at a dog boarding & day care facility and believe I have allot of experience with fur babies of all kinds and find so much joy in caring for them! I'm a stay at home mama and work evenings at a day care 4-8pm 4 days a week. I can be available for as many let outs and cuddles your pup may need! Any schedule you have for your fur baby I would be more than happy to implement so your pup can feel most at home! If possible, drop off/pick up times would preferably be before 3PM or after 8PM Monday-Thursday and anytime Friday-Sunday. I’m an animal lover and would love to take care of your pup! I have a large fenced yard and a sweet female cockapoodle named Sophia! She loves other pups and doesn't meet a stranger! We would love to welcome your fur baby to stay with us wether it’s for the day or the night!
About: Lifelong owner - Great Dane, Pit-bull, Puggle, German Shepherd + cats. I grew up with a Great Dane (gentle giants + large breed care), a Pit-bull (high energy, strong, total love bug – Big on positive reinforcement), a Puggle (small dog sass + sniffy walks), and cats, so I’m comfortable with any size, breed or personality. I currently have a German Shepherd, who is friendly, social, and great with other dogs. He’s up-to-date on vaccines and loves having playmates. Your dog will get a built-in buddy for supervised play in our big fenced backyard, but I always do slow introductions and can keep them separate if needed for meals/naps. If your dog refers people only, just let me know and I’ll manage it. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 11 – boarding, daycare, walks, droppings, puppies to seniors. Very comfortable with basic training: sit, stay, crate, training, potty training, leash, manners, no jumping, and sticking to your routine. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home all day. Dogs here get potty breaks every 1-2 hours in the backyard, lots of exercise, photo updates, and never left alone for long. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so pet care is my full daily routine and I’m home 24/7. Dogs get potty breaks every 1-2 hours in our big fenced backyard, morning and afternoon play sessions, walks, training practice, and lots of cuddles. I have a friendly German Shepherd who loves play buddies, and we spend most of the day outside. Available for boarding and daycare 7 days a week, including holidays. Safety is my top priority. Big fully fenced backyard with supervised play only – dogs are never outside alone. Small, clean, dog-proofed home, dogs never left alone long. Slow introductions with my friendly German Shepherd, separate feeding/sleeping if needed. Daily photo and video updates, I follow your feeding and crate routine exactly, and happy to do Meet and Greets first. I believe pets are just people with fur ❤️
About: I love theater. I love any kind of animal and I will treat them like as if they are my own. I used to have pets but they passed away recently. I’m only available to pet sit at your own place! My apartment does not allow pets. However I can pets it anywhere else. I am available in Panama City, Panama City Beach, Southport, and 30a! I also work at Panama City Toyota full time Tuesday-Friday from 10-7 and Saturdays from 8:30-6 so my availability might be limited but I always find a way to work things out! I have experience volunteering at the Humane Society of Bay County. I will make your pet a very very happy. Can’t wait to meet everyone. It gives me time to play with other pets and gives me time to learn how to deal with situations that I can absolutely learn! I do not have a fenced in area nor am I allowed to have dogs in my house so I can only petsit in your home.
“Our puppy enjoyed her time with Destini! This is our first time leaving her in care and Destini made sure to communicate with us and send pictures. We couldn't be more happy! Destini is kind and made the experience so easy. Definitely coming back in the future!”
“Ashley did a great job with Bode, this our first experience using Rover and we are very impressed. Ashley kept us informed during the day and sent photos. Best de was very well taken care of for sure!”
“I felt quite at ease entrusting Chico to Cranesha’s family due to her extensive background and experience, as well as the positive reviews on Rover. However, I had some apprehension as Chico had never been in a house with other pets before. Despite being a bit spoiled and craving attention, especially from people, I was unsure of how he would behave. He is very energetic. Cranesha sent me a few pic and text messages, and upon checking the app, I discovered even more photos showing that Chico had a wonderful time. It appears that both the family and the other dogs enjoyed his company, and he had a great time with them. I will definitely choose Cranesha again when I am in the area.”
“Oh my goodness. I can not say enough good things about Patience and her husband. They were so great to my little guy. I was so nervous to leave my little guy. I had never left him before but we were vacation and my daughter wanted to go snorkeling. Not a service dog friendly activity. Patience put us at ease from the second we walked up to her door. She was super friendly and just loved my Ewok. She sent me tons of pictures throughout his stay to show me how he was doing. It made this mommy heart happy! It helped me focus on my two legged kiddo knowing my 4 legged kiddo was safe and being well cared for. Thank you so much!”
About: A Brazilian living in Panama City Beach, Fl who loves animals. Your pet will be pampered and loved. I've always had animals at home and I love taking care of them. Let's have a lot of fun together! This is my main job. I dedicate myself all week to taking care of animals. I organize my routine according to my schedule. Waiting for you! I provide personalized service according to the customer's needs. In the first contact, I talk to find out more information about the pet. It is very important to know each one's routine.
About: I've grown up with dogs almost my entire life, and I have nearly a decade of experience as a kennel worker at a pet resort. As a dog owner, pet care is a part of my daily routine. For me, it's almost instinct. Family isn't a question of blood or legal relation; it's who you live and grow up with. If you have only one animal, you probably have a reason; I can keep them away from other animals(domestic or wild) if required. I know that pets need constant supervision, like a toddler, but with better hair. I will make sure they get breakfast and dinner(and lunch, if they get lunch), potty time every couple hours, and exercise(walks and play). I will also clean up after them, and hide meds in food if necessary.
About: We own one dog and had two dogs before that. Dogs feel comfortable and loved here. No matter if short or long stays and big or small, old or young dog - there's always room and fun to be had. My husband and I grew up with dogs and can't be without. We have toys and some treats but individual dog-approved is always better. When boarding a dog over a time period that requires feeding I expect food to be provided. While I take any dog and treat it like my own I need to know in advance if there are medical or behavioral issues. I'm a stay-at-home mom of four little ones (10-2yo) We get up early every morning and go to bed rather late. I have a fenced yard, a super friendly dog and my kids grew up with dogs so know how to treat/ not treat dogs. I can also separate dogs if needed. Dogs are always loosely supervised. I am a stay-at-home mom, homeschooling 3 out of 4 kids and so am extremely flexible to all needs of your fur baby. My yard is fenced in for drop-offs that enjoy outside and we have a separate room if a dog requires a calmer environment than the business of a bigger family. I grew up with various dogs and sized dogs. I know how to handle most tempers that are not aggressive. I understand every dog has its own personality and timeline. We have two cars so I am available to drive out for drop-ins and walking.
About: I’m available 24/7, I have several years of experience with animals, I’ve been around them my whole life. I’ve rescued several dogs. All of differen breeds. I’m open to any size or weight. I’m also open to any breed. I have two French bulldogs myself and I love them to death. They are my babies. I’m open any hours of the day and have a flexible schedule to fit you and your dogs needs. Looking forward to getting to meet new pups and spoil them. I am very experienced in bulldogs. English bulldogs to be specific. I am aware that they cannot be outside for very long in the heat because they get hot easy. I think I would be a great fit for your dogs! I’m a full time hair stylist but only live a few minutes away from work so i’m able to come home every couple hours to let the dogs out! I also have a dog that had back surgery so he requires extra care! I’m home every couple hours daily. I have a fenced yard and extra crates if needed! My house is set up to be separated if your animals prefers some alone time. I have tons of toys and treats for your babies as well!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Panama City Beach
Mrs.Valerie took great care of our Poet! Sent sweet pictures of him playing in her yard with her pups. We booked very last minute visit with her and she came through! If we find ourselves in Panama we’ll definitely book with her again. Thank you so much Mrs.Valerie!
Aaron is amazing!! Our girls loved being with him and his family. He went above and beyond by providing super detailed info about their walk breaks and if they peeped or pooped. But the absolute BEST part was his super artistic photos of the girls!!! Works of art!!
Cherie did an excellent job watching our 8 week old puppy. It can be very demanding but she was incredible. She sent us pictures and messages throughout the day and kept us in the loop. I puppy was excited to see her each day. We are eternally grateful for her help while we enjoyed the beach each day and we would and will absolutely be rebooking. Highly recommend.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Jeanna!! From the moment we stepped into her home she made us all feel like part of the family. Billie loved laying by the pool and Jeanna even had an "extra" dog bed that she put out for her. We were able to enjoy a relaxed day off and know that our fur baby was in loving hands. Would recommend her (and her entire family!) without reservation.
Angela was fantastic with Trixie and Snoops. She loves animals and our dogs picked-up on that and were immediately comfortable with her. Angela showed us where our dogs would stay, which was very thoughtful. Her cockapoodle, Kylie, was very easygoing. Trixie and Snoops loved Angela and we definitely ask her to care for Trixie and Snoops again.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Panama City Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Panama City Beach on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 127 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Panama City Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Panama City Beach commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 127 sitters in Panama City Beach, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
