“I cannot recommend this dog sitter enough! She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Not only did she take incredible care of my dog, but she went above and beyond by picking her up and even giving her a bath before bringing her home. Her patio is perfect for high-energy dogs, with plenty of space to run, play, and burn off energy safely. It was such a relief knowing my dog was getting exercise, attention, and lots of love while I was away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. My pup came home happy, clean, and exhausted from all the fun she had. I would trust her with my dog again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional dog sitter!”
“David & Krysta took such great care of Enzo while we were away. Great communication and were flexible with our needs for pickup & drop off. Seemed like Enzo felt right at home with them”
“Chelsee was such an amazing sitter taking care of my dog, Buddy! She made sure he had lots of love, cuddles, and walks. She made sure to accommodate to all of Buddy's needs and provide consistent, detailed updates with how he was every day making it so reassuring that he was being well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Chelsee if you ever need her to care for your pets!”

“We are so grateful to have had Heather watch Rex while we were on vacation. She was so sweet and sent us pictures everyday. The whole family loved on him and he was well taken care of. He even barked and tried to go back in her house when we came to pick him up! 😂”
“Juniper had a lovely weekend while we were away and Anna sent many photos from their time together. Anna was very communicative and accommodated our drop off & pick up times.”
“Such a great experience! We hadn't boarded our doggo since 2019 and Alexandra made it such a wonderful experience for us and our Sophie. Daily pictures and checkins, and even sent her home with her handwashed food bowl. Will absolutely use again!”
“We feel that Mia received the best of care from Rosemary & Matthew. I'm sure she was in good hands.....even tho she hid in the closet for most of her stay! We would use them again.”
“Absolutely wonderful! He gave me at least one daily update without prompt! He made the first experience with the app the best and will definitely continue to use him! 10 out of 10. Much better than doggie daycare.”
“I am honored to leave a review when I first went there I was kind of skeptical of leaving Ravel there because of the wooded area and there weren't any dogs that I thought revell would be able to play with when revell got out of the car revell act like he knew Allison all his life she is definitely an animal whisperer at this point in time I said okay this might be okay during my vacation Allison sent pictures everyday of ravel's progress and how great RAVELL is doing... I'm going to say this if you're looking for a dog sitter she is your girl ..She will contact you every step of the way let you know of progress.. I thank God for her when I came back to pick up Ravell he was not hurt he was still alive and unbruised thank you Allison for taking care of my pooch and as we were pulling out the driveway I told Ravell give Allison kisses and he ran straight to her to give her kisses goodbye..”
“Pippa loves her time with Brittney, and our family loves knowing she is safe, happy, and loved when we're away! Brittney is a great and speedy communicator and kept Pippa on her schedule while we were on vacation. Super friendly, professional, and trustworthy!”
“Ginny did such an amazing job, my dog Apollo was treated wonderfully. He was there for about two weeks with a mixture of other dogs. I had frequent updates, and was told how he was being treated - the peace of mind was fantastic. I would easily book with Ginny again, I cannot recommend her enough.”
“Gabrielle was amazing. My dog is high maintenance and has separation anxiety. He was so happy with her. Gabrielle will take excellent care of your baby!!! 100% recommend her.”

“Kelly was amazing with my cat! Gave him lots of love and play time, I could tell from the initial meet-and-greet she would take great care of him. I’ll definitely be booking her for next time!”
“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: Hello, My name is Britni and I'm a huge lover of animals! I currently have 1 dog, 2 cats, and 3 chickens! 🐕🐈⬛️🐔 I grew up with a father that trained bloodhounds for the Walton County prison and was taught the responsibilities of caring for animals at a young age. As a child I was fascinated to witness the strong bond between man and canine, and had a deep appreciation for the entertainment, safety, and companionship these animals provided. 💗 I began volunteering with the animals at the E. O. Wilson Biophilia center in Freeport earlier this year, and it has solidified that working with animals is a passion of mine.

About: Hi there! I’m an Alaqua Animal Refuge approved foster momma! I treat every animal like they’re part of my family, not just a booking. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away — whether that means structured walks, playtime, or plenty of snuggles on the couch. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing because I know how important peace of mind is when trusting someone with your best friend. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I own my own business and work from home. This allows me to provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also have the flexibility to step away when needed for walks, drop-ins, or special care requests, so pets receive consistent care without long periods alone. I adjust care to each dog’s personality and needs — whether that’s structure and patience for puppies or extra comfort and gentle care for seniors. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow routines closely and provide regular updates and photos so owners always feel reassured. My goal is simple — happy, comfortable pets and owners who feel completely at ease while they’re away.
“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: With over five years of dedicated feline care experience, including two years as a volunteer vet tech assistant at a local animal rescue, I specialize in providing stress-free, personalized drop-in visits and house sitting for cats in the comfort of their own home. Whether it’s keeping up with precise feeding routines, administering daily oral or injectable medications (like insulin), or catering to shy senior rescues and high-energy kittens, I understand that every cat’s personality and boundaries are unique.
“Madeline took wonderful care of my senior cat with daily drop-in visits while I was out of town. My cat doesn't like many people, but she warmed right up to Madeline. I was able to leave my cat at home where she is most comfortable and know she was well cared for. I highly recommend her and will definitely hire Madeline the next time I travel.”

About: I grew up with our K-9 police dogs at home and have been dog sitting for military families in Germany, New Mexico and Florida for 5 years. I‘m a stay at home wife with 2 dogs and no children. Unfortunately not able to watch any cats due to me being allergic to cats. Also not able to watch dogs that aren’t potty trained due to carpet floors. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have crates available if needed and lots of toys and treats.
About: Our place or yours? We live in a 3/2 home.. Our back yard is fenced in and secure. We do have two doggies that love other dogs. I can come to your home also. This is all I do now, and I love it! I previously worked 5 1/2 years at a local animal hospital. I have been working with Rover 8 years and I love it! My husband is a sergeant at a local prison. Several local families I have pet sat for, for almost 11 years. I can come over and walk your dog(gies) each day, or check on them several times a day. Our pets are family members. We have two children that love animals as well. If you choose us, your kids will be treated with the love and fun they deserve. I have given medicine,diabetes shots, accommodated special needs doggies and special diets. If your baby needs their own space we have an empty room they can make their own sanctuary. I was a member of AmeriCorps for two years, here in Okaloosa county. They taught me more about helping local children and other local charities. Now, my only job is pet care. I do go to a few people's houses and let their animals out, play with them during the day. Other than that, I am home with my family and the pets. I try not to have too early drop offs or too late pick ups, as not to disturb our neighbors. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your pets company. If your dog needs to be crated we can do that also. Pet Care is my full-time job. I board dogs out of my home, it's like they are part of my family. I also go to other people's houses and walk dogs to check on their pets. I have three fenced in yards two are dedicated to pet sitting. Most of the fences are new and they are all secure. My two sons definitely help with my pet sitting business.

“We brought our 6 month old puppy to the beach with us and she barked like crazy in her kennel. I reached out to Lucia on Rover and she was quick to respond. She kept our girl (Harper) for us at her house while we enjoyed a beach day. I know Harper enjoyed her time with Lucia and we are so so thankful for her! I could tell within 2 minutes of meeting her she was a safe space for our dog and I was able to enjoy the beach knowing Harper was in the best hands!! We will be using her every summer!”
“Dana was so wonderfully accommodating when we were on vacation with our dogs. We messed up schedules for an outting and didn't have a place to take the dogs. She was so sweet with our sweet babies. So thankful for her”
“Carla is wonderful. I’m in from out of town and have a younger dog. She was up for the energy, and has a beautiful home and fenced in backyard. She has two older dogs of her own and her son is so sweet and tender with the dogs. She sent photos through the day, and kept my boy happy and out of trouble! This was my first rover experience and Carla has made me a believer. She put me at ease and showed me where my boy would be in her home, and asked questions I didn’t think to add in my “new mom overshare”. Truly cannot say enough.”

About: I’ve been helping take care of animals since I was very young. I’ve been raised with dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and birds!

This means that my Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are open!:) I will follow any directions you give to me and I’ll make sure to give your pet some company when they need it! You pet is safe with me:)!

About: I have been training dogs for 8 years, I have spent the past couple years working in rescue so I can also train during a visit! I am a retired veteran and have access to Eglin AFB! During a stay I can potty train and work on basic commands, during a stay or walk I can work on leash training! I have 2 dogs with medical conditions so I am experienced with medication administration and I also worked for a vet clinic! I’ve worked in rescue so I also do well with shy or “difficult to deal with” dogs! I am an online college student so I have free time to check in and make sure that let’s get proper outside time and exercise! **disclaimer** I am unable to accommodate overnight stays at this time due personal circumstances. I am still available for house sitting and will be with the pets during the day but will return home in the evenings. I understand that some dogs are jumpy or quick to run! I ensure that I am not careless and am always paying attention when opening doors or gates, and ensure that anything that could be harmful is put away!
“Kelly handled my dog Stella amazingly. I live in a very dog heavy neighborhood and I adopted a senior German Shepherd with dog on dog reactivity due to early trauma in life. Kelly took my dog on a nice long walk for an hour and Stella was tired when I got home which made me so happy. I could definitely tell Stella loves Kelly. She even had her favorite ball in her mouth in the picture that Kelly sent me. Stella won’t even bring over her favorite ball to my parents so I definitely will be rebooking her again. I would highly recommend Kelly for anyone’s dog.”
“Josie was amazing, I needed a last minute sitter/walker due to my other one not working out and Josie was right there when needed! Atticus loved being with her. I would definitely recommend Josie and I will be continuing with her!”
“Madeline is actually THEE best dog sitter there is out there. She’s always super attentive, loving towards your four-legged bestie and sends all of the best pictures and updates during her visit. While you may miss your buddy terribly, you know they’re in safe hands with Madeline. Let your stress and anxiety dissipate with her services!”

They had plenty of cat toys and many cat trees. They are my children so there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for them.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had pets of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also have professional experience working in an animal hospital, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s normal routine, and I’ll always communicate in advance about my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine will always be my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, potty breaks, and any special routines they’re used to. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. I’ll treat your space with respect, keep doors and gates securely closed, maintain a clean environment, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾
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 a 9-5 schedule, with zero weekends or holidays. This gives me lots of availability during the weekends to help you out! I always want lots of detail for your pet and what makes them comfortable. My pupper is my baby, and he occasionally needs a sitter as well. So I totally understand the importance of having a sitter that is very straightforward and reliable. My apartment also has an enclosed dog park with a very safe/peaceful neighborhood to walk which we really enjoy.
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.

“I cannot recommend this dog sitter enough! She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Not only did she take incredible care of my dog, but she went above and beyond by picking her up and even giving her a bath before bringing her home. Her patio is perfect for high-energy dogs, with plenty of space to run, play, and burn off energy safely. It was such a relief knowing my dog was getting exercise, attention, and lots of love while I was away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. My pup came home happy, clean, and exhausted from all the fun she had. I would trust her with my dog again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional dog sitter!”
“David & Krysta took such great care of Enzo while we were away. Great communication and were flexible with our needs for pickup & drop off. Seemed like Enzo felt right at home with them”
“Chelsee was such an amazing sitter taking care of my dog, Buddy! She made sure he had lots of love, cuddles, and walks. She made sure to accommodate to all of Buddy's needs and provide consistent, detailed updates with how he was every day making it so reassuring that he was being well taken care of while we were away. I highly recommend Chelsee if you ever need her to care for your pets!”
About: Many years experience as a loving pet-parent (cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, birds and fish). I have worked as a dog-groomer as well. I am retired and no longer have pets but would enjoy helping out with yours. I am retired and have lots of time to play and care for your pets. I currently do not have pets after losing my 22 year old rat terrier last year but would treasure yours like my own. I live in an apartment without a fence but I can take your dog for walks as needed and can give them lots of my time and attention if they are here. Otherwise, I can come to you for their care.
About: I have cared for and trained my dog, my mother’s and grandmother’s dogs. I have also provided a variety of personal home-care services to senior citizens, special needs children & nannied off and on throughout my early adult life. I love caring for and helping others.

“We are so grateful to have had Heather watch Rex while we were on vacation. She was so sweet and sent us pictures everyday. The whole family loved on him and he was well taken care of. He even barked and tried to go back in her house when we came to pick him up! 😂”
“Such a great experience! We hadn't boarded our doggo since 2019 and Alexandra made it such a wonderful experience for us and our Sophie. Daily pictures and checkins, and even sent her home with her handwashed food bowl. Will absolutely use again!”
“Absolutely wonderful! He gave me at least one daily update without prompt! He made the first experience with the app the best and will definitely continue to use him! 10 out of 10. Much better than doggie daycare.”
“I am honored to leave a review when I first went there I was kind of skeptical of leaving Ravel there because of the wooded area and there weren't any dogs that I thought revell would be able to play with when revell got out of the car revell act like he knew Allison all his life she is definitely an animal whisperer at this point in time I said okay this might be okay during my vacation Allison sent pictures everyday of ravel's progress and how great RAVELL is doing... I'm going to say this if you're looking for a dog sitter she is your girl ..She will contact you every step of the way let you know of progress.. I thank God for her when I came back to pick up Ravell he was not hurt he was still alive and unbruised thank you Allison for taking care of my pooch and as we were pulling out the driveway I told Ravell give Allison kisses and he ran straight to her to give her kisses goodbye..”
“Pippa loves her time with Brittney, and our family loves knowing she is safe, happy, and loved when we're away! Brittney is a great and speedy communicator and kept Pippa on her schedule while we were on vacation. Super friendly, professional, and trustworthy!”
“Ginny did such an amazing job, my dog Apollo was treated wonderfully. He was there for about two weeks with a mixture of other dogs. I had frequent updates, and was told how he was being treated - the peace of mind was fantastic. I would easily book with Ginny again, I cannot recommend her enough.”
“This was the first time we ever left our dog so I was a little nervous. Alex's other dogs are very sweet and they got along fine. Alex sent me text and pictures, sometimes twice a day! They went on walks, to the beach, she spoiled our girl rotten! Very appreciate, would highly recommend!”

This was my first experience with Rover and Logan did a great job making sure I was comfortable with with the process and the care Mila would receive. I got great pictures and plenty of updates.
