“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.”
“Aurora kept my 2 dogs, one of which is on the nervous anxious side . Her assuring manner went over well with me as well as my dog. She texted and sent pics couple hrs after my leaving showing they had adapted . I appreciated the reassurance. My reservation was also rather last minute and she was very accommodating to my hrs . We dropped off at 9 and didn’t p:u till 6 . I will definitely recommend her and use again when in area .”

“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.”
“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! 😎”
“Lacey Kate was very excited to see Livie and almost jumped out of my arms. Lacey Kate loves playing with Seren. It’s a wonderful loving environment for your fur baby. Great communication and she follows her feeding and nap schedule”
“Jessie was a true godsend. This was my first time ever using Rover.com, so I was a little unsure at first. The moment I reached out to her, she responded right away, and we quickly coordinated schedules. Lucky was able to start daycare the very next day. She was wonderful with him, and I could tell he was safe and comfortable in her care. I was able to relax and truly enjoy my vacation knowing my sweet boy was happy. If I’m ever back in Panama City Beach, Florida, I will absolutely reach out to Jessie again. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have never lived without a dog. They are family to me. They are indoor pets allowed on the furniture. I have showed dogs in confirmation, Rally and obedience. I am retired from the medical field and work from home. I have a lot of time to spoil your pets with walks and cuddles I offer a free met and greet with every pet owner. I find it important to establish a rapport with the owner and the pet. For home stays in your home, I don't just feed, walk and play with your pet, but bring in any packages that may have been left on the porch, take out the trash and recyclables and alternate lights.

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.

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 July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 126 sitters in Panama City Beach, 83% 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.
