“Frankie loves going to Ashley’s house! She is very responsive and takes great care of Frankie. She makes sure to always send me photos of Frankie playing outside or hanging out inside watching tv. I will continue to use Ashley any time I need a sitter.”
About: I grew up with pets. We always had a dog and often times a cat, hamsters or gerbils, birds, lizards, and/or fish! I am responsible and reliable and love all animals! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am able to provide your pet with lots of attention! I wake up early and go to the gym and walk my dog Maggie daily. I have a three bedroom/two bath house with plenty of room and a large fenced-in yard. There are lots of parks nearby, and shady sidewalks for walking.
“She is great with my baby girl each time. I was heart broken when I found out she wasn't available during my next trip. I will rebook with her time and time again”
“Benae was great! She kept our frenchie for 6 nights. We left her all of the info to know about Stella and she followed what we asked to keep her in her routine. Benae sent updates, photos and videos the entire time. Definitely recommended her to love your fur baby!”
“Mariah was a perfect dog sitter for dog, Winston! She and her son took him on many walks, got to play with their friendly animals, and she sent lots of wonderful picture updates that let us know Winston was having a great time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Nicole has been amazing with our dog, she was really nice since the moment I contacted her. She gave us lots of updates during the long weekend and some pictures. We’ll definitely contact with her again whenever we need someone to take care of our Ky”
“I am blown away at how amazing Andrea and Joseph were! From the initial conversation to picking my baby up from their home! She bonded with their small pup instantly and they were inseparable! They loved my baby like their own and she will forever be my go to! I loved all the pictures and updates she sent as well! She even sent her home with a little goody bag of toys and snacks, and I am just so grateful for them!”
“Daniel did a great job. He first suggested a meet and greet at the dog park before committing which I really liked. He has two wonderful dogs who got along really well with ours. He took good care of Little Rock. He sent us couple of pictures every day. Always responded in a good timely manner when I texted him. Kept me updated on our dog adjusting and eating manner. And provided more food for LR when he ran out of what we provided. We definitely recommend his services and will be using help again in the future.”
“Shelby kept us informed of how our dogs were doing with cute pictures of them and saying how they were playing with her friendly dogs. They obviously enjoyed being there. Thank you Shelby!”
“Ellen took great care of our dog, Lucy, during our trip to Pensacola. She was very communicative, reliable, and easy to work with throughout the stay. We especially appreciated her flexibility when we asked her to pick up and drop off Lucy so she could spend some time with us at the beach. Lucy was well cared for and happy during her stay. I highly recommend Ellen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We would definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“MaryEllen was perfect! We could not have asked for a better experience.. She was very accommodating with our pickup and drop off times. I was utterly shocked at how clean her house was. She and her daughter were as sweet and friendly as they could be. We received pictures and/or video clips everyday to keep our mind at easy. I honestly thought by the pictures and videos that our dog wouldn't want to come home with us. I am so glad we found Maryellen and we will DEFINTELY be using her and recommending her in the future!”
“As a first time drop off I was really nervous but I was given plenty of updates and photos to ease my tension. I left 2 lovely pups with Ms Stephanie (1 large and a small old man) and she was able to keep them both entertained, loved and cuddled. When picking them up I was happy to see they warmed up to her quite well and I would happily recommend her services to anyone!”
“Had a wonderful experience with Tim and Mariah! Their home was clean, safe, and dog-friendly, which made me feel comfortable leaving my dog in their care. They were attentive, providing updates and photos of my dog showing it felt right at home, and she looked so happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I highly recommend Tim and Mariah to anyone looking for a warm and caring environment for their pet.”
“Joy was amazing with my dog Theo! I’m usually very nervous about leaving him with someone new, but Joy let us come by for a meet and greet prior to my trip. I can honestly say after meeting her I had no doubts and felt very comfortable leaving with him in her care. Her communication was great and she made sure to send pictures and all updates. Her dog Fang was also a sweetheart and got along great with Theo. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt at home and I could tell he loved being there. I will not hesitate to rebook in the future and very thankful I found her!”
“Sam was amazing! She made me feel so relieved and comfortable, especially sense it was my first time using a sitter. Volly seemed so happy there! Sam was adamantly responsive. Ill definitely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Sam!!”
“We had such a great experience with Dawn! She was absolutely wonderful with our two miniature dachshunds. Her home is clean, tidy, and was perfect for our low to the ground dogs. The fenced-in yard was a huge bonus, and she was home with them throughout the day. She was also super flexible with our schedule, which made everything so easy. We would love for her to keep them again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pensacola
Benae spoiled our babies! She took exceptional care of them to include our older dog with extra needs. She shared daily updates and pictures. Our comfort with her helped us enjoy our time away without worry. We will definitely use her services again the next time we have to travel without our fur children!
Emily was absolutely amazing! She sent great photos, she checked with me before accepting another dog for the same weekend, which was very considerate. She has a great house with a Doggy door and a large fenced in yard space. She’s very friendly, energetic and I think my dog likes her better than me! She also administered his allergy meds and checked with me when she had questions. She is the best and affordable to top it off!
Nicole was great to work with. Constant communication from her and I felt my girls were well taken care of and pretty sure they want to go back. She answered super quickly for the initial reservation and I always felt like my girls had her undivided attention. I will be using her again if she will let me.
Stephen took the very best care of our boy, Fred, while we were out of town for a couple weeks! Stephen kept Fred very active, gave us wonderful updates each day about how Fred was doing, and best of all, he gave Fred a happy, peaceful, loving home while we were away. Stephen is the very best, and we know we will use his dogsitting services again.
Claire took our dog Rati on super short notice and when we needed little extra time was totally helpful and willing. My dog is a service dog so my bond with my animal is extreme and so important. So the fact she was willing and able to help was so important to be able to take care of her, which I never do. This was the first time ever using Rover or Claire. So I would recommend both.
Logan was a saving grace. We requested him last minute and within the hour we had our pup dropped off. We had confidence when leaving that our Graham was going to be safe, well cared for, and have a ball playing with Shaggy (Logan’s dog). Logan sent regular updates with pictures and went the extra mile by washing Graham’s bedding before sending home. Wonderful experience. We are grateful and would definitely send our pup back!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Pensacola 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 492 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pensacola. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Pensacola sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Pensacola landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Pensacola home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Pensacola.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Pensacola sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
