About: Growing up, I was surrounded by animals—dogs, a cat, horses, a donkey, geese, chickens, goats, and more. I’ve always loved connecting with and caring for them! As an adult, I had my soul dog for 11 wonderful years; she was a beloved member of my family. Sadly, in 2024, we had to say goodbye to her. I truly understand the deep bond we share with our pets, and I’m passionate about providing safe, loving care for others' animals. I have experience with bathing, administering medications, and taking pets for walks - it's an honor to be entrusted with their care! I have flexibility with my employment - I am able to quickly swing by my home or yours throughout the day if needed as well as can offer boarding services for evenings or weekends. I tailor my care to the needs of each animal, as they all have their own personality and preferences! I am available to come to your home and let your dog out for a walk, or I can provided care and boarding services at my home.

“Joshua was fantastic with my 90lb puppy who has lots of energy! He came for a drop-in visit and took him on a nice walk to help burn off some energy. He handled him confidently, gave him plenty of attention, and sent great updates with photos. My dog looked so happy and relaxed afterward! I really appreciate how caring and professional Joshua was—would definitely book again!”

“We hit the jackpot with Tiffany! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a bit nervous to go on a weekend trip and leave my pup alone for the first time. Tiffany went ABOVE AND BEYOND in taking care of my dog! Not only did I receive regular report cards, but she stayed longer than requested every time she came by. It truly made me feel at ease and I was able to fully enjoy my trip without worrying. I will 100% ask her to help out in the future. THANK YOU TIFFANY!!”

About: Hello! My name is Joanna. I grew up around animals since I lived on acreage. As a kid we had cows, chickens, ducks, dogs, and cats. I used to pet sit all of the time when I was in high school and even helped train bird dogs. I currently have a dog of my own, her name is Aurora, she is 85 lbs of pure outgoing love. I have plenty of experience with cats as well, I used to cat sit and even foster. I have a pretty lenient schedule, I am flexible so as long as we are able to communicate pick up and drop off it should be fine. We live on acreage where I takes the dogs for a walk and we also have two big dog kennels. I have a dog and so does my mom so they will have friends to play with. We have one outdoor cat but no indoor cats. If you have cats we have a litter box and they will stay inside.

About: Leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. My goal is simple: when you're away, you can have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I've been caring for animals for more than 30 years, starting at age 4 while growing up on my parents' goat and chicken farm and around my grandparents' horses and livestock. Caring for animals of different sizes, personalities, and temperaments has been a natural part of my life for decades. What many pet parents appreciate most is my ability to understand animal behavior. I take the time to earn each pet's trust, respect their personality, and create a calm, positive environment where they can relax and feel secure while you're away. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, enjoys long walks, or simply wants someone nearby, I'll meet them where they are and care for them according to their individual needs and routine. My experience includes: 🐾 Behavior & Confidence Building I enjoy reinforcing good habits through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. If requested, I'm happy to reinforce the training you're already doing at home. Some examples include: 🐈 Successfully trained two formerly feral cats to come when called, sit on command, consistently use the litter box, and become affectionate, trusting companions. 🐶 Taught a pug to retrieve and neatly line up his leash, harness, and collar by the door in less than 30 days. 🐕 Helped eliminate excessive door barking in a friend's dog in under four hours using calm, consistent behavioral techniques. 🐕‍🦺 Rehabilitated my own overweight pit bull by helping him lose 30 pounds in two months while teaching reliable recall, heel, sit, stay, and excellent leash manners. I also successfully socialized him around other dogs and established dependable bathroom routines. What you can expect from me: ❤️ Your pet will be treated with genuine love, patience, and respect. 🐾 I'll maintain their normal routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. 📸 You'll receive regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they're doing. 🦴 I'll pay attention to the little things—changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or anything else you'd want to know. 🏡 My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, secure, and happy until you're home again. I understand that every pet is unique, and I believe the best care comes from listening carefully to both the pet and their owner. Medication While I haven't needed to administer medication to pets in recent years, I'm comfortable following detailed instructions provided by you. Whether it's oral medication, topical treatments, or another routine, I'll take the time to ensure it's administered carefully, safely, and exactly as directed. If I ever have questions, I'll communicate with you immediately so you can feel completely confident in your pet's care. I know you're trusting someone with a member of your family—not "just a pet." That's a responsibility I don't take lightly, and I strive to make every visit an experience that leaves both you and your pet happy, comfortable, and looking forward to the next one. I currently work part-time, which gives me consistent availability during the day. My typical availability is: Monday–Friday: 11:00 AM–5:00 PM Additional availability may be possible depending on scheduling, so feel free to ask. I'm happy to discuss scheduling to see if we're a good fit. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to maintain the routines you've established so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I'll carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household guidelines exactly as you provide them. Communication is very important to me. If I notice anything unusual about your pet's behavior, appetite, health, or environment, I'll contact you immediately. Likewise, if I have any questions about your instructions, I'll reach out rather than make assumptions. I know firsthand how much pets mean to their families, so I care for every animal with the same attentiveness, patience, and respect I'd want for my own.

About: I have experience taking care of all sorts of animals all my life. I grew up with lots of dogs and cats. I have watched co-workers and friends dogs through out the years. I know how to give medication, first aid, groom, bathe, walk and read animal behavior. I have trained multiple dogs in my life to follow commands. I am a dog mom, artist, photographer and Navy wife. I would love to walk, play, feed and pet sit your animals. I also have base access. I am very attentive of the safety of your pets. I make sure they are fed, have water, need any medication and are let out frequently. Most importantly make them feel loved with the attention they need.

Shelby was great! She filled in last minute for a sitter that had cancelled a few hours before we went out of town and really helped us out in a pinch. She was on time, communicative and I can tell the doods were well taken care of! Thank you Shelby!

Carson is amazing with communication and is very reliable! This is our first time requesting Carson but it definitely won't be the last time. He is very dependable and arrived on time each day and sent pictures of our three pups both days. I look forward to him spending more time with our pups in the future.

Sara was great. She braved a tropical storm to stop by and meet my pups and pick up a key. Both warmed to her right away, even my slightly skittish girl. While I was away, Sara provided great care and handling of my giant breed dogs, checking in promptly, sending pics, making sure pets and house were secure. Knowing I have a nearby neighbor vetted by Rover who is communicative, punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and responsible is such a gift!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Pensacola

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Pensacola on Rover is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,139 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Pensacola. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Pensacola 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.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

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.

To find sitters in Pensacola with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pensacola. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
