“Heather was BEYOND amazing with my baby Lady Tremaine. She was so attentive and provided updates with pictures and videos, playtime, walks, all the things. Literally treated my dog like a part of the family and I absolutely love that!! 100000000/10 recommend!!! I will ABSOLUTELY be using Heather in the future for boarding, since now Lady Tremaine and her dog Teddy are now besties lol. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!!”
About: I love pet sitting. I been doing it for 12 years. I have two of my own that love very much. I have pet sit for friend and family. I would take care of your pet like it was one of mine with love and caring. About this sitter: I have two dog and one daughter. We are a family of three. We do a lot of things together including the dogs. This is very fun when you have pet on your own or take care of them. Having this job you learn more of caring for animals. For more then 8 year you would love them and take good car of them. My dog and cat i have so much fun with them everyday. I'm Unemployed and I have a plenty of time 2 dedicate to the pet being home. And have fun with them. I have 3 more pets here that can play together I have fences around the house and the dogs will not be allowed to run out. Also I have Crates if it's needed. I like to have them free and the house and backyard. So they could run.
“After a few questionable experiences we found Luke and Signe. We have boarded with them three times so far and each experience has been wonderful. When we arrive for drop off the pups aren’t terrified or fighting to get back in the car. Instead they eagerly hop out and head for the gate to get inside and run around. When we arrive to pick up the pups, they are excited to see us but not blowing through the fence and us to leave there. Communication is great, I never wait for updates and they answer any questions in a timely manner. They also send pictures on a daily basis. I will continue to use Luke and Signe until they retire.”
“Tracy has been amazing with my baby! I got daily updates and photos. I knew from the moment he was dropped off that he was in a good loving environment. My Ollie and Tracy were buddies from the moment they met. I wouldn’t hesitate having Tracy watch him again. I’m new to the area and feel blessed I found someone so loving so fast!!! He truly had a blast in her care!”
About: I’ve always had a special soft spot for pit breeds and short-haired dogs, but I truly love and appreciate every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I enjoy learning each animal’s unique personality and providing personalized care, patience, attention, and plenty of love. My goal is to ensure every pet feels happy, safe, comfortable, and cared for while their parent is away! Pet care naturally fits my routine. I enjoy feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets plenty of love while respecting their unique schedules and personalities given any special requirements they may have. I follow your pet’s routine, providing food, walks, playtime, safety, and love while respecting your home and treating your fur baby as my own.
“Ashley was AMAZING! She’s kind and very fast to respond and even sent photos of Max each day… If dogs could talk, I think l Max would ask for Ashley the next time we need a pet sitter…thanks Ashley!”
“First time leaving Bia with anyone other than my mother. Elizabeth had her for 4 nights and I was a little nervous. Elizabeth did a great job with her. My dog has separation anxiety because she was dumped off at a junk yard by her previous owner's. She seemed so comfortable with Elizabeth. I will definitely be a repeat client. Elizabeth was also not only comfortable with the fact that my dog’s commands are German but she was enthusiastic to learn. All in all I am very happy with my dog’s care and I would highly recommend Elizabeth as a sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of lots of furry friends and continue to do so every day! My dogs are my world and I will treat yours with the same love and care. I work from home with a very flexible job. I spend a lot of my day tending to my dogs, keeping them happy and entertained. I take my dogs for about 4 walks a day, we have a fenced in yard, and all the toys in the world. I understand that every dog has their own quirks and needs and am happy to tend to yours however you feel best.
“Kandace is truly the sweetest. She sent me and my partner pictures of our fur babies the entire time without having to ask and it brought us an unexplainable amount of comfort. Her response time and flexibility was also amazing, not to mention that she treated them like her own…if not better. Our chocolate lab was having a few dietary issues along with some joint pain and she truly accommodated to all of it. I 10/10 recommend her services and will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“My precious 9 year old Stella Bella Roux had the doggie pleasure of staying with Abbie for six nights recently. Abbie took great care of my girl, stayed in contact with me, and sent pictures that made my heart smile big. I know Stella was well cared for and very happy staying with Abbie and her family. I I will certainly let Stella stay with Abbie in the future. I highly recommend Abbie, she is the best dog sitter! 🐾🩷🐾”
“Lexi had the best time with Jessica. She slept on the floor next to Jessica’s daughter. Had a lot of fun playing with her. Jessica sent lots of pics all during the day and night. Would definitely book another stay with her. Highly recommend!”
“We are so fortunate to have found Belinda on Rover. We are 1,000 miles from home, going on a week long cruise, and leaving our dog (Lincoln) with a non-family member for the time. Belinda was so kind and informative during our meet and great as she answered all our questions and made us (including Lincoln🐕🦺) very comfortable and at ease. Lincoln just completed a one night stay so he could acclimate to his new surroundings. Belinda shared pictures of him lying on his pillow, eating, and playing in their yard. Lincoln had a great time and we are excited and grateful for him to be staying at Belinda’s when leave for a week. Great communication and always responds right away!”
“Taylor was great with my dog, Drax! I booked last minute & she was very accommodating, kind, & easy to communicate with. She sent pictures of my sweet baby boy which made being away slightly easier.”
“Natali and her partner were absolutely WONDERFUL. They stepped up and were able to take care of Olive on last minute notice when another sitter backed out. They sent pictures regularly and I felt reassured Olive was in goods while I was away. We look forward to more stays with Natali in the future :)”

Emily was easy to work with and very accommodating throughout our first boarding experience. Her dog Maggie has a gentle disposition and was an excellent companion for our older pup, putting her at ease. We appreciated the photos during the stay and the neighborhood walks. We were so happy that our dog was relaxed and happy at pick-up. We’re grateful for the care she received during her stay.
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.

There are 493 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Pensacola. About 91% of Pensacola sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
