About: Hiiii! I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for all kinds of pups, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m especially patient with older dogs who may need extra time, attention, or a gentler pace. I treat every dog like they’re my own—showered with love, cuddles, and care. Whether it’s a walk, a meal, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits my flexible routine perfectly—I’m active, loving, and patient. Caring for pets brings me joy and never feels like work. I can’t wait to be with you’re puppies!! I have a golden retriever and a little rescue dog not sure what breed he is. I take care of them by feeding them and letting them out I’m always home during the day so I spend my time loving on the both of them. They are the sweetest most gentle and loving dogs you’ll ever meet!!!

About: I’ve taken care of all types of fur babies since I could remember, my mom would literally always have animals and dogs growing up. I am extremely organized, love going by a set schedule/instructions, go on many walks, and would love the extra company! I currently work full time in a clinic, Monday-Thursday 7-4p and Fridays 7-12p. I am off every weekend! Never work any holidays. My apartment has an enclosed dog park with a very safe/peaceful neighborhood to walk. I have one fur baby to keep them company who loves all and every one and fur baby.

Martha was an amazing pet sitter. She is prompt, courteous, and very attentive to detail as well as the animals. I felt very secure leaving my animals in her care. She is also very informative and communicated daily.

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: 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.

There's a beautiful large pool for those hot days of fun in the sun. Another great option is doggie daycare. I can provide & schedule a pick-up & drop-off for your pampered pooch.

This is a wonderful simple solution to a great vacation! We provide exceptional services for all breeds. Parents are always welcome to drop by ... let's meet and greet! If you have any questions or concerns please feel free. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

About: I am an experienced animal professional and responsible pet owner who will always ensure that every animal under my care is happy and healthy.   I currently work remote as a Veterinary Support Specialist where I work alongside doctors and am responsible for doing tasks such as reporting changes in a pet’s behavior and health, discussing patient cases with doctors and referring doctors, and assisting pet owners with understanding their pet’s status reports, medical records, discharge papers, and after-care needs.   In addition to this, I have had many pets throughout my life. I currently have 2 dogs (one dachshund mix and one black mouth cur mix) and 1 tortoise. I also previously had a golden retriever, a shiba inu, 2 rabbits, 10 guinea pigs, 2 ferrets, 4 hamsters, a bearded dragon, and a ball python. For boarding, I will be able to provide pet-care 24/7. For drop-in visits, I will be able to provide pet-care twice a day (or more, depending on how close the family lives to me.) Pets under my care:   As a pet-parent, I understand how scary it can be to leave your fur-baby in someone else’s care, so I will always be sure that not only is your pet’s safety a priority of mine but also your peace of mind. I am committed to providing the best care for your pet’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being. I take thoughtful steps to earn the trust of new pets, and then follow a careful process when introducing them to my home and to my dogs, to ensure they feel completely safe and comfortable. Additionally, I provide frequent updates and respond promptly to any messages, so you can rest assured that your pet is happy, healthy, and well-cared for.   Pet-care at my home:   My apartment complex is a gated community that includes fields of grass and safely constructed sidewalks for walking. It also has both a “beach” area where dogs can dig in the sand and a fenced-in dog park where they can run and play off-leash.   My apartment itself is a two bedroom with a living room, kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, balcony (which is safe for pets,) and 6 cameras installed to help with monitoring pets in-house.   Pets visiting my home will be staying in my gated-off living room where they can play, free-roam, and lounge on my dog beds. I dedicate my whole living room for the animals I pet-sit so there is plenty of empty space for playing, running, and setting up crates or play pens, if needed.   For the nighttime, pets (if they don’t sleep in a crate/pen) will also be sleeping in my living room or with me in my bedroom, if they need more company and or supervision. Pets will also be in my bedroom (which has a floor bed) when it’s cuddle time (which is something that happens a lot).   In addition to this, for exercise and going potty, pets will be taken on walks and will have the ability to utilize my apartment complex’s dog-park (when there are no other dogs present besides my own.)   Please also note that feedings will entirely depend on the instructions of the owner(s) and that for hydration, a water bowl will always be accessible to pets both in my home and on-the-go.   Pet-care at your home:   I will care for your pet in any way that is instructed of me in your home!

We were so lucky to have MaKayla look after our Luna girl while we were away for Thanksgiving! MaKayla was responsive, attentive, and trustworthy. She sent me pictures of Luna on her visits and was always good to give me updates when she came by. It makes being away much easier when you feel your animals are being well treated and taken care of, and that’s how we felt with MaKayla!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had cats for 22 years. My husband and I have had Golden Retrievers and Labs for over twenty years. We currently have a chocolate lab named Moka who is 10 years old and a Golden Retriever named Maggie who is a year old. I have also dog Sat many other breeds including German Shepards, Golden doodles, Maltese, Shih Tzu, Beagles and many others. I currently work from home part time so I am available to come see your little ones any time! Whatever schedule they need I can accommodate their needs. I will not only just come in, feed your animals & leave. We never appreciated that when we needed a pet sitter. I will walk them if wanted, play with them, or we can just snuggle while giving a good old belly rub! I know they’re already missing their owners I want to make it as comfortable for them as possible while you’re gone.

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! ♥️

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Santa Rosa Beach

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

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

As of July 2026, there are 659 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Santa Rosa Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Santa Rosa Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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 Santa Rosa Beach 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 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 Santa Rosa Beach 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 Santa Rosa Beach. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
