“Karissa did a great job with the drop-in visit for my senior dog, Georgia! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave Georgia, along with the photo updates. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book with Karissa again!”
“Shelley was wonder with our sweet golden retriever. She was able to work us into her schedule even though it was a last minute request. Our dog loved her! She is so sweet! We will be calling again soon!”


“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! ♥️”

“Paulina is a top tier pet sitter. My partner and I could not have been more pleased with the level of care and consideration she offers. We will be booking her for the foreseeable future. Even though this was our first time working with her she puts you at ease and I knew I could trust her immediately. Thank you Paulina ✨🫶🏻”

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 :)
“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!”

“Cassidy is wonderful! She looked after our kitty so well. Receiving daily updates and sweet photos really helped to put us at ease. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that our cat was well looked after. Thanks so much, Cassidy!”

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: 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.
“I booked Emily last minute in a panic after a sitter did not show up and she did amazing! My little Kensee is elderly and comes with long instructions and she took it all in stride! I can tell Kensee took well to her, even though she was a last minute stranger. She was so responsive and responsible. Thank you so much Emily!!”

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.
“Emma was available last minute when another sitter canceled, came right away and took care of my pup for the weekend! I could enjoy my trip knowing my dog was in good hands”

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.

About: I was born and raised in a small rural Missouri town surrounded by all kinds of animals; big and small! Dogs have always been a major part of my life, and I hold their safety and enjoyment to the highest standard. Growing up on a farm, I’ve cared for dogs of all stages of life; from their first day to their last! I’ve administered medications in pill form, and changed wound dressing when needed. I don’t shy away from the big or “scary” breeds, & I believe all dogs deserve the same respect! I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time dedicated solely to your furry family member! Availability is open from 7am-7:30pm; Monday-Saturday. Your pets safety is my #1 priority! I will treat your dog with the same respect as I would my own, and I will pay close attention to the dogs temperature levels and surroundings. Fresh water will be readily available on all walks.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 20+ years. I do have a soft spot for senior or disabled pups and I can ensure you that you will come home to a happy fur baby! I am currently working part-time or close to home. This allows me to keep your pups out and about for walks, playtime or just snuggles. I have a large fully fenced in backyard to let the Zoomies out. Cat friend, Single-story home or any senior dogs also a large crate on site if needed.

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

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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Santa Rosa Beach. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
