Cassidy is such a wonderful dog lover. We felt very comfortable with her spending time at our home with Jax. She was communicative, and sent lots of pics. I can't wait to book her again!

Lucia did a wonderful job caring for our cat, Finny, during five days of drop-in visits. She followed all of our feeding instructions carefully, including giving him his wet food, dry food, and favorite treats. Finny is very shy and usually hides from strangers, but Lucia made an extra effort to spend time with him, talk to him, and tempt him with treats so he wouldn’t feel alone. We truly appreciated her kindness and attentiveness and would gladly book her again!

About: I was raised on a farm in the countryside. We had cats and dogs among other animals. Many of these I claimed as pets. I've owned several dogs in my lifetime and into their older years and currently have two cats which they think they're human. These little animals are part of our families. This makes them of great importance and priority. Their care should be taken just as seriously as each other. Listening to their needs and watching their habits they communicate. I take great care listening to the sounds and movement of a pet to discern what they are trying to communicate that they need. Flexibility is important when it comes to pet sitting. My children are almost adults now so I have more time to care for another family's pets. I do not have the room for a pet in my home but I have lots of room in my heart to take care of your pet in yours.

10 stars! Emily was excellent with my cat! There was a definite bond from the beginning as he gave his "hey, here's a good person" approval. Emily was very patient, taking time to pet him, show interest and develop rapport. Her communication is excellent as well. When I arrived home he reacted very affectionate and relaxed. Not stressed or anxious at all. I love to see this because it shows he received good care during my absence. I'd definitely book Emily again in a heartbeat! considering she did such a great job showing loving care to my treasured soul mate cat :) I recommend her to anyone seeking a respectful, empathetic sitter who loves & understands cats 🐈 Thank you, Emily

About: I've had a special place in my heart for dogs since I was a kid. I was the designated puppy trainer, groomer, and bestie for our family pups growing up. I have my own sweet mini labradoodle, Lainey, who loves company! I've helped with family and friends' pets my whole life, and I'm excited to have a new schedule these days that allows me to help out pet parents on Rover. I currently study from home, so I have plenty of time for your pup! I don't have any obligations away from home, so if your pup needs a little extra attention, feel free to say so, and I'll accommodate the best I can. I have a roomy apartment and a screened-in porch. When we're not on walks or at the park, my pup loves hanging out on the porch with the fans on for some fresh air (door to the inside kept cracked open). My apartment is toddler-proofed and safe, and I'm always around to keep an eye on your pup. We have plenty of chew toys, treats, and fun to go around :)

Coming from a third-party perspective, everyone wants their fur babies to be cared for and not taken advantage of. I was skeptical at first about letting someone into my home, but Jennifer completely proved me wrong in the best way. She’s easily one of the best sitters I’ve had. Her communication is excellent, and she truly goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is well taken care of. Whether your dog needs constant attention or just a little, she adapts perfectly. She actively plays with them and meets all their needs. I felt completely at ease. She’s also very accountable and professional. If anything unexpected comes up, she handles it responsibly, and she’s very understanding if you ever need to cancel for an emergency. The level of care she provides is top-notch. I’m really glad I found her; it’s rare to come across someone this reliable.

About: Hi there! I relocated to the 30A area this past spring from Colorado, where I was previously offering my animal care services. I look forward to continuing to connect with new individuals & families here that are seeking quality care for their beloved pets! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I am currently available for housesitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. Please note that for housesitting jobs I do need to bring my 13 year old chocolate lab along with me. His profile is available to check out at the bottom of my page :) I have been offering animal care services for several years now and I truly enjoy it so much! Animals have always been a part of my life. From growing up with them, to caring for pets of friends and family, to offering my care as a service on this platform since ‘22; I have a wide range of experience with different breeds, needs, ages, and personalities. I also have a 13 year old chocolate Labrador of my own named Paxson, who I have had the joy of living life with since he was 7 weeks old! With all of my experience of caring for different animals and raising my own, I am very confident in my ability to take wonderful care of yours :) I have a flexible schedule which allows me to prioritize my time and attention towards taking good care of the pet(s) I am looking after. Pet parents can expect that if I am available for a booking that I will be all in with your animals! I always inquire about routines, specific instructions and if there is anything else I may need to know in order to ensure the best care for your pet(s). It is important to me to help keep their daily routines as normal as possible, and to be aware of anything I may need to look out for to ensure their safety and wellbeing while in my care.

Crysta was AMAZING!! I had a unique request: help me get my three dogs to my wedding. Our dogs are a very big part of our lives and we knew our wedding wouldn’t be complete without them. We’ve always dreamed that at our wedding we would be surrounded by our family and friends and our dogs are the most important members of our family. Crysta made our wedding complete! She stepped in when no one else could and accepted the request without hesitation. I scheduled a meet and greet just to make sure she got to meet them first and we talked through our wedding timeline. I asked Crysta to be at our Airbnb for 4 pm, let them have a quick potty break, and take them about 15 minutes down the road to our venue, wait while we take some family photos with the pups, then bring them back to our Airbnb. Let me tell you, she exceeded my expectations TREMENDOUSLY!! She arrived out our house around 3:30, let them have a longer potty break than I asked for, and made it to my venue ONE WHOLE HOUR before the wedding started. She went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for and got to and from the venue safely. I’m not from Destin, I was just in town for the wedding from Houston, but whenever I am back in town and need help with our dogs, she will be the FIRST person I call. She was so kind and friendly and she treated our dogs like they were her own. Words cannot describe how happy I am that I found Crysta. I think my dogs were just as happy, they loved her!! She sent me some cute pics too. Thank you so much Crysta!! You made our dream come true! ♥️

About: I have been an animal lover all my life and have always had a natural affinity for caring for pets. I have experience in pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and clients, which has allowed me to develop a strong foundation in handling different types of animals and understanding their needs. I am well-versed in basic animal care, such as feeding, walking, grooming, and administering medication if necessary. Additionally, I am responsible, reliable, and attentive to detail, ensuring that the pets under my care receive the best possible treatment. My love for animals and my experience in pet care make me well-qualified to provide exceptional pet sitting and dog walking services I currently work part-time from home, so I'll have plenty of time to give your pet my undivided attention, love and care. Available for boarding, day care, walks and sitting 7 days a week. I live in a gated apartment with a large courtyard and private dog park with my golden retriever to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed or am happy to let them cuddle up on the couch or bed.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Santa Rosa Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Santa Rosa Beach on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 287 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Santa Rosa Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 cat, 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, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Santa Rosa Beach. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 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.
