Dog Sitting Shalimar

“Tiffany was great! She was available for a last minute trip and was able to easily adjust the days to match our plans. She also brought in an unexpected package that was delivered while we were away.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for pets since my teenage years and have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from small companion breeds to large German Shepherds. I’m currently the proud dog mom of Neptune, our 7-year-old Pomsky, and two rescued shelter cats from Louisiana. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal with patience, attention, and genuine care. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. My husband also works remotely part-time from home, so there is usually someone home during the day. Our teenage daughter is home for the summer as well, meaning your pets will receive lots of love, attention, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We recently added a fenced 0.34-acre yard with plenty of room for supervised outdoor play and exercise. Our home is calm, family-oriented, and full of animal lovers, with multiple people available to give attention and care. I’m experienced with dogs of many sizes and personalities and will always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Ashley, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own household. I currently have two cats of my own, Twinkie and Binx, who are spoiled members of the family and remind me every day how important it is to provide pets with love, attention, and consistency. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up with multiple dogs ranging from a small Rat Terrier to a Boxer, and I’ve also cared for larger breeds including Great Danes and Weimaraners. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or somewhere in between, I take the time to learn their routine and make them feel comfortable and secure. When caring for your pets, I treat them like family. I understand that every animal has unique needs, and I’m committed to following feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special requests you may have. I also believe communication is important, so you can expect regular updates and photos while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving the same love and care they would get at home. I work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM and have a one-hour lunch break during the day. During my lunch break, I can check in, provide potty breaks, feed pets if needed, and make sure they’re comfortable. Before and after work, your pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to know your pets are doing well while you’re away, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout each stay. I strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible and will always treat them with the same love and care I give my own cats, Twinkie and Binx. My schedule works especially well for cats, independent dogs, and pets who are comfortable being alone during a typical workday. For pets requiring constant supervision or more frequent potty breaks, we’ll discuss their needs beforehand to make sure I’m the right fit. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and household rules. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. With over 20 years of experience caring for pets for friends and family, as well as owning my own cats, Twinkie and Binx, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I strive to create a safe and stress-free experience for them.

“Melanie dropped by our home to check on our two kittens. She always sent updates and pictures. She communicated very well and was super trustworthy! We’ll definitely have her watch our cats again 😊”

“Amber is exactly the person you want caring for your dog! She has been wonderful and reliable with our puppy, sending lots of pictures and videos and taking the absolute best care of our fur baby. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over six years, and spending so much time around animals has taught me that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and way of communicating. My experience includes caring for dogs both in Colombia and in the U.S., as well as cats, so I’m comfortable with different temperaments and daily care needs. I’m patient, dependable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I treat every pet with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would expect for my own. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, going on walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care every visit. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. I provide attentive, reliable care in the client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs such as medications or senior support. I focus on creating a calm and safe environment while owners are away, making sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I also keep owners updated as needed so they have peace of mind during every visit.

“Jennifer is so nice and was great with my two cats! I felt comforted knowing that she was there to take care of them while I was gone. Would definitely book her again in the future :)”

About: I have worked as a kennel tech for dog daycare and took care of multiple dogs with different personalities. I’ve also pet sat cats and dogs for family friends. I’m currently working two jobs, but will work to integrate your pet needs into my schedule. I ensure to meet all pet needs as far as food and potty breaks. At a clients home I like to go over any safety precautions and routines so I can stick to what your pet is familiar with while I’m there.

About: Hi! I am a third year medical student, and I am doing my rotations in Fort Walton Beach. I am originally from Orlando, but I actually lived in Destin for a few years growing up. I love all animals and have been pet sitting since I was in high school! My schedule is mostly clear in the evenings and on the weekends! My schedule varies from month to month with my schedule at the hospital, so I try to keep my rover calendar updated! When I am not in the hospital, your pets will be my #1 priority! Since I have a roommate, I will not be able to care for your pets in my home. But, safety is my number one priority in your home! I am very detailed oriented and attentive, so your pets will not get into any trouble on my watch!!

About: I am a mature, flexible retired RN who loves all animals. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs and non-traditional pets. I have a penchant for setting the pets and the pet parents at ease! I’m happy to keep your pet(s) company so they are not lonely while you are away! I perform the usual services: take the dogs out, clean the kitty litter daily, feed & provide fresh water on their schedule, keep them safe and give them treats, if allowed. There’s time for snuggles, playtime & exercise. I will go above & beyond to meet your needs.for pet care. I have experience with senior & young pets. I can accommodate special diets, medications and special needs. I have experience with a blind senior dog and many rescue dogs and cats with emotional, as well as physical needs. I am attuned and equipped to handle medical problems that may arise and would contact you immediately in an emergency. I can perform first aid on mammals if needed. I am available for drop-in visits or overnight stays, depending on your preference. For drop-ins I can come M-F mornings, late afternoons and anytime on weekends. I’m happy to do a meet & greet before you leave to assure you are comfortable. I look forward to working with you and your awesome pets!! I am free most weekdays, weekends and holidays. My standing commitments are from 10am to 1pm M-F, so pet sitting can easily be scheduled around those hours successfully. I am very at ease with most pets and they usually like me right away. It’s a little different with cats & some dogs sometimes, who may have a wait & see stance. I am very patient in that instance and allow them to check me out in their way & in their time. I build trust with patience, kindness & love, respecting the animal’s boundaries.

About: Thanks for taking an opportunity to discover more about me and what I may be able to offer you, your friends, and your family. I grew up modestly but rich with pet friends. I’m a dog person at heart and most dogs know it as soon as we meet. I’m a retired military guy in the area with a wife and 2 daughters. We own a 10 year old American bulldog named LuLu. I understand the need for good, reliable pet care options. So if some Rover providers can’t support your 2 a.m. dog walk/house call request. Give me a shot, I just might be your best solution. Thanks again for considering me. I’m recently retired and finding that I have so much time and even more energy to give. If you have a schedule that is not typical of the 9-5 work day, I understand. I have the same lived experience. I don’t offer boarding services at this time due to my favorite pup LuLu and her inability to socialize with other animals in her home.

About: I grew up in a home with multiple pets and have hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages. This includes feeding, walking, grooming, playtime, and providing lots of attention and affection. I offer drop-in visits for both cats and dogs, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, and interactive playtime tailored to your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away, so I provide regular photo and video updates for peace of mind. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re gone. I work throughout the week I am an esthetician but my shifts are at most 6 hours. So I am able to stop by before and after work. I also am able to take breaks at work if needed. In my home, I create a safe, clean and welcoming environment for pets. I follow their usually routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, walks or bedtime rituals to help make them comfortable and reduce any stress.

“Amazing job! This was my first time leaving my puppy for a full day and I’m grateful Alaysia took such great care of him. I received many updates and pictures of her visits to him, overall perfect for what I needed today.”

Tristan F.

“Kelly was the best. She went above and beyond to care for our cats while we were gone for 2 weeks. we will definitely be using her again. And I recommend her to everyone!”

Carla T.

“Sharon took care of my three cats like they were her own. She went to great lengths to spend time with them at her visits and followed my directions explicitly. She administered insulin to my diabetic cat twice daily and made sure he was perfectly cared for. There is no price you can put on the security of knowing your babies are safe and cared for”

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid, having dogs around me my whole life. I've helped train the family dogs, and earned the trust of even stubborn puppers everywhere I go. I'm able to pet-sit and walk around a part time schedule. I am free most other time and will take wonderful care of your pets. I will keep open communication with owners as to their pet's needs. I can care for sick or elderly dogs, help train puppies (not certified), and keep pets entertained.
