“We had an awesome experience with Patricia keeping our dog in Fort Walton Beach. We received regular communication and pictures, and everything was even better than expected and hoped for. We would highly recommend Patricia for your dog sitting needs.”
“This was my first time using the Rover app. We left our dog Charlie with Rachel and Cody for two weeks while we were out of town. Rachel and Cody sent us pictures and videos of Charlie everyday. They also sent us updates on how Charlie was adjusting. I would definitely recommend Rachel and Cody!! They will be the only people I use to watch Charlie! Thank you again!!”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was young, and it's always been a big part of my life. I had two cats who lived to be 21 years old, and through them, I gained firsthand experience in caring for senior pets. Over the years, I've also looked after both cats and dogs of all ages, including those with special needs. I regularly help military families take care of their pets while they're away, and friends and relatives often trust me to walk, feed, and care for their furry companions. Providing reliable, loving care is something I truly enjoy. I’m currently a full-time dog mom, which means I’m available every day of the week for pet care. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, whether it's for walks, feedings, drop-in visits, or just spending quality time with your pets while you're away. Your fur babies will feel right at home here in a safe, welcoming environment. We have a large, fully fenced backyard for plenty of outdoor fun, and my friendly dog is always happy to have a playmate. If your baby prefers a quieter space or needs to be crated, that can easily be arranged. The AC is always on, so long-haired pets will stay cool and comfortable. I treat every pet like part of the family and do everything I can to make sure they feel secure, relaxed, and loved while they’re here.
“Vanessa was a godsend. We was looking for somewhere to put our puppy last minute when we ran across the Rover app. We liked Vanessa's profile and decided to go with her. We are so glad that we did. She was very helpful as this was our first time leaving our baby. She sent plenty of pictures and videos. She was very understanding when our puppy had accidents. We could tell our little girl had a blast while she was there with her. On a scale of 1 to 10 Vanessa is an 11!”
“Rosemary and Matthew were very responsive and my boy seemed to have a great time with their family. I really appreciated their efforts to maintain my dog's established schedule and rule following! Would definitely recommend/book with this family again!”
“Joshua and Mitchel took such great care of our lil Ralph! They kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos, which really showed how much attention and love they gave him. With all the rain lately, I was a little worried he’d come back dirty, but they kept him so clean and just the way we left him. We couldn’t have asked for better care!”
“Kayla was excellent and her dog (Cally) and my dog (Atlas) got along famously. Kayla was providing photos and videos of my extremely happy pup throughout the entire boarding process. Kayla was courteous, communicative, and helpful from beginning to end. She gladly extended the stay an additional day when I was having travel troubles as well. Thank you Kayla!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for 11 years and counting. I own two small friendly dogs, a Cockatoo and a Manchester Terrier both females. I’m a stay home mom, with a big house and plenty of room for your pets to have fun. Available Monday through Friday, possibly weekends. I own my house with enough yard size for your pets, all around fenced area and a 8’x8’ doggy house climate controlled exclusive for dogs if required.
“This family was the sweetest. I received updates and pictures throughout my time away and would definitely call on her again. Peachy felt at home and was very happy.”

Ching Y.
“I've known Ching for about two years now and she's always expressed such love for animals! She's worked with an animal scientist and has planned so many workshops for animal care with said professor. Outside of this, she has pet sitted for various friends' pets including my turtle and two dogs! My turtle Bing Bing was more work than the dogs because she would need to change the aquarium water weekly! But she did amazing. She watched him for a period of two weeks. Ching watched my two dogs, Ace and Milo, for a period of two separate occasions for a duration of three weeks. She fed them, walked them and tended to any other essentials during the time of my absence. She did such a great job with them and I trust that anyone could leave their pets with her. Please consider my friend for this job!”
