“Felicia is amazing!! My two shy cats come out to see her which is a first for any sitter I’ve used. She is extremely responsive and cares about the animals she watches. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Kelcie is amazing! She is so sweet and cared for my Cleo like her own. She met with me and asked lots of questions about my pet to make sure she knew what was best and how I like things done, and she sent lots of pictures to keep me updated while I was away! Will definitely rebook in the future and recommend to friends!!! Thank you Kelcie!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs my entire life. Caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’ve personally raised and trained two dogs from puppyhood, so I’m comfortable with everything from potty training and basic obedience to creating consistent routines and providing lots of patience and positive reinforcement. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently working 3 12s so I have a very flexible schedule. My schedule is different days every other week. When you book with me I will let you know what days I work that week. I will clean all the messes made and make sure your dog is well taken care of like they were my own. I will treat your animals as if they were my own.
“Taylor was great! Very responsive and professional. Loved the details and the photos she included on the Rover Card during her checkins. I will definitely be using her again to watch my cats!”
“Matt goes above and beyond to provide care for your pet, even if it means scratches from a scared cat. He’s kind, thoughtful, communicates well, and is an exemplary example of a fantastic pet sitter. Thank you!!”
About: I've been an animal-lover since I was a child. I have always been surrounded by family pets - dogs, cats, bearded dragons, fish, etc. I have a 13 year-old Australian Shepard mix that I rescued in 2013 and I recently rescued a kitten. I love all pets and will treat yours like I treat my own - with love, respect and lots of snuggles. I'm currently working part-time, so I have extra time to spend with your animals! I love to walk, run or play with your animals. I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings for walks - and am also available for overnight pet-sitting. I have a fenced in yard at home and am also near a few walking paths. I always use collars and leashes when going on walks and I make sure that all animals are securely inside before opening outside doors.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats of all ages for over 15 years. My experience ranges from puppy and kitten care to senior care of your love ones. I can take care of your cat or dog during the day, weekends and during your trips and vacations. I can make accommodation to fit your schedule. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog. My dog Adranio is a 11 year old medium poodle. Your puppy will also be able to roam freely around the house. Walks in the neighborhood in a safe neighborhood. For cats please feel free to message me so I can work out accommodation.
About: As a pet parent for over 60 years, I have always been in touch with my love for and connection with animals. For the past 12 years, I provided care to dogs, cats, birds and rabbits. Through this time, I learned about caring for animals in different stages of life all with different personalities and needs. My certifications in dog training from the Animal Behavior College has given me the knowledge and skills to further understand how to provide the best personalized care to each pet. When not caring for the pets of clients, I volunteer at a shelter as an advocate for the five freedoms for all animals. Pet care is my passion and is my full time career. My commitment to this line of work and my flexible schedule ensures my ability to meet the care needs of each client and their pets. The primary service I offer is providing care in clients’ homes. Whenever intaking new clients and pets, my first step is to schedule a complimentary meet and greet. During this meet and greet, I have a series of questions that I ask to ensure my understanding of exactly what is needed to care for each pet exactly as they need it. Safety and comfort of the pet is my top priority and pride myself on providing that peace of mind to clients.
About: I enjoy helping - I have 2 cats of my own currently and with travel, events, etc it can be hard consistently finding family to come check on them. I was introduced to Rover and it’s been amazing. I love animals and decided I’d like to be able to help others when they are traveling, working late, date night, whatever that may be. Just have 2 cats now but grew up with dogs as well and am very familiar and comfortable with both. If I can help in any way I’d love to. I'm working full time on the weekdays to build my business. I am available before and after to assist. I am usually leaving for work around 7:30 and home by 5 but am flexible and will work with you to get the scheduling correct. I am here to help make your pets feel comfortable and safe when you are out of town. I am very caring and love bonding with animals.
“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!”
About: I have two furry babies myself, love working with animals, and have fostered before so, I am confident I can give pets care they deserve! I am currently a part time student and work about three days a week so I have plenty of time to hang out with your furry loved ones! I am understanding that every dog is unique and has to have their needs met differently so, I am totally willing to work with each pet as needed!
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember—caring for everything from tiny lap companions to big, lovable gentle giants. To me, every pup is more than just a pet; they’re a unique soul with their own quirks, charms, and personality. I take the time to truly connect with each dog, whether they thrive on adventurous walks or prefer cozy afternoons filled with belly rubs. I understand the trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I treat that responsibility with the utmost respect. My mission is to give you complete peace of mind while creating a safe, happy, and loving environment for your dog. When they’re with me, it’s not just pet sitting—it’s like their own little staycation, filled with care, comfort, and plenty of tail wags, “Belly Rubs, and Snuggles Included!“ As a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, I bring discipline, reliability, and a strong sense of responsibility to everything I do—including caring for your furry family members. You can trust me to provide attentive, loving care while respecting your home and routine. I understand that every pet—and every schedule—is unique, so I offer flexible services to fit your needs, whether it’s daytime visits, overnight stays, weekends, or even holidays. My goal is to give both you and your pets peace of mind, knowing they’re in safe, dependable, and caring hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain a secure and clean environment, closely following your routines and any special instructions to ensure their well-being. You can trust me to provide attentive, loving care while respecting your home, creating a calm and stress-free atmosphere for your furry family members. From playtime and walks to feeding and cuddles, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
About: Dogs have always been apart of my life. But when my family got a new dog in 2015, I really became involved. I helped with all necessary puppy tasks such as training, playing, bathing etc. That dog and I are now best friends and I still continue to help with the tasks of playing, walking, and cuddling. I am currently a college student so I have enough time in my everyday schedule to make the dogs a top priority between my classes, exams, and homework. I have classes spaced throughout the day, so I have the capabilities to attend to the dogs during the day in between my class schedule. Some days I do not have classes at all. In my apartment, I do not have dogs. But at my family home, I walk, play, cuddle, fed, and clean up after our two dogs. At a clients house I would follow any specific instructions the owner provides as well as giving the dog my full attention for the allotted time I am there. I would play, walk, and pet the dogs whilst spending time with them.
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pensacola
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!
Logan did drop in visits for our 90 lb energetic puppy and did a great job!! Our pup loved him and was very responsive to him. Provided lots of photos and I felt he was in great hands. I would highly recommend his services and will absolutely use them in the future!

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 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 .

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.
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.

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.
