“Brittany was amazing when she took care of our dogs for a whole week! We boarded them at her home and I’m know our pups enjoyed their stay! She updated us everyday and we are forever grateful! We would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“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!”
“David and Krysta were fantastic. They have a wonderful family and my dog felt comfortable almost immediately after I dropped her off. David kept me informed, on the daily activities, sent me pictures, and provided behavioral updates. David and Krystal responded promptly adjusting to me very short notice request to drop off Bree and when I arrived ahead of schedule to pick her up. I would highly recommend this family if you need assistance in caring for your love ones. Truly thankful for this experience as it was my first but will not be my last.”
“Alex took wonderful care of Donny! We are so thankful! We were traveling for a family vacation but needed a few night for Donny to stay somewhere - I was nervous but she sent wonderful updates and took wonderful care of him!”
“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.”
“Heather was wonderful and took such good care of Dad’s dog while we were away! Great communication and responded promptly whenever we messaged her. Relieved the stress of not being able to take his dog with us. I can not thank her enough!”
“Anna and her husband were so kind and I am very grateful for taking my pooch in on a last minute visit. Thank you for the daily updates/pictures. It was nice knowing he was well taken care of.”
“This was our first time leaving our baby. From my first conversation with Rosemary and meeting Matthew at drop-off they made it so easy not to worry. I would recommend them 10times over. Thanks so much for making my vacation!”
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. I substitute teach during the school year and I would love to care for pets during the summer time! It is my goal to at least work part time on top of another part time job! :) I have an apartment where I can keep pets for a short amount of time; we have a nice walking area and a dog park.
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.
“Carla was so wonderful with our Lacy, who is an older dog with regular medication needs. Carla made sure that Lacy was integrated into the family, felt comfortable at all times, and routinely let us know how she was doing. Carla is one of the most caring and welcoming sitters for Lacy that we've had yet! When we arrived Lacy was happy, comfortable, and totally calm, so I know she had a great time, too.”
“Allison was the best sitter that I could have ever asked for! She communicated with me everyday, multiple times a day with updates. My pup was almost sad to leave her house! I would recommend her 100 times over to anyone and will definitely be using her again if I need boarding or sitting. Thank you again, Allison!”
“We had a great experience! Ginny was very nice, kept us updated with pictures, and took great care of Cali and Diego. They’re both completely knocked out today, so I’m pretty sure they had a great time! 😂 We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We will miss Ashlea so much when we move! It’s so hard to find good dog sitters and Ashlea goes above and beyond every time and we will recommend her every time! We are blessed to have known her and her family our dogs will truly miss her!”
“We couldn't be happier with the kindness that Brittney showed us and our pup Ollie! She sent us pictures everyday of our dog and we felt so good about leaving him for our 2-week vacation. Oliver is usually nervous and has severe separation anxiety, but he was taken care of so well by Brittney that he looked healthy, happy, and well exercised when we picked him up. We HIGHLY recommend Brittney and hope to use her services again soon!!”
“I highly recommend Logan. Our dog was happy from the time we dropped him off all the way through to us picking him up. We were nervous because we had never done this before, but we are so happy with how our dog was taken care of.”

“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!”
“Emily was awesome! She stopped by for a few drop-in visits with my senior cat and sent me updates/photos during each visit, which gave me great peace of mind. My cat is usually picky with people, but she warmed up to Emily right away — which was such a plus.”
“Cheryl is amazing and a life saver. Took great care of our cats even the more senior one with tricky medications. Then she went out of her way to take care of our plants so they wouldn't freeze. Wow, we are so grateful and relieved to have someone wonderful like Cheryl to watch over our home and fur babies in our absence.”
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. I am currently offering services to do drop ins or take your pup on a walk! Thank you for considering me to work with your beloved pet! 🐾💞 I am currently leaving a decade long career in resturants/hospitality behind, and following my passion of working with animals! I'm very excited to start this new chapter and can be flexible! I do not offer sitting in my home, but will always ensure to be mindful and bring a sharp awareness anytime I am working with someone's beloved pet.
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.
“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: I have always had a dog by my side so I have a lot of experience. In our household live with us, our 2 year old Belgian shepherd Dodge, who needs to be worked out daily and our 12 year old Labrador mix Bella.

“Sweet woman! She responded quickly, was sensitive to my situation and worked with me on the scheduling, drop off, pick up, etc. she gave me updates on my puppy and he seemed so happy and safe there. I will be back and highly recommend”
“Brittney was extremely warm and welcoming of our dog on her first ever doggy-day-care visit. She took her on trail walks, played a lot with her and sent us updates and pictures throughout the day! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and will definitely be taking her back to spend the day with Brittney again soon!”

“Alexandra is fabulous! She has watched my 1 year old goldendoodle several times and had been very flexible and accommodating with my hectic work schedule. You can tell she really loves dogs and I can always tell he's been well taken care of when I pick him up. I love getting updates during the day- she takes him on walks and he always comes home so tired and happy from playing with her dogs. I highly recommend her to take care of your baby(s)!”

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.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember, from fostering and caring for pets to gaining hands-on experience with wildlife rehabilitation growing up. Those experiences taught me patience, how to read animal behavior, and how to stay calm and attentive when an animal has unique needs. I also have a dog of my own who is a tripod, so I understand firsthand that every pet may require a different level of care, mobility support, patience, and routine. My background in healthcare has made me especially detail-oriented, dependable, and comfortable following specific care instructions. Most importantly, I’m outgoing, compassionate, and genuinely love building trust with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and ensuring they have fun while their owners are away. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve! I love spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, potty breaks, and fresh air can easily be part of our day. I’m also happy to adjust my routine around your pet’s normal schedule, whether that means specific feeding times, medications, extra exercise, or just plenty of snuggles and company. I have a medium sized 25 pound female dog who is incredibly friendly and loves to play with all sized dogs but also does a fantastic job minding her own business if another dog isn’t interested. I live in an apartment complex with two large fenced dog parks and are within walking distance of many safe trails. Additionally I have two dog washing stations here if needed! In client homes I am incredibly respectful and very trustworthy of whatever rules and wishes are stated to ensure the highest level of care for your pet!
“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!”
“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.”
“Ashlea is very friendly and accommodating. fast to respond and let me know our fur baby was doing good. She also sent me pictures and videos of her throughout the day. Would highly recommend and will use again if I’m ever in this area in the future. Thank you!”
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 :)

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! So if you have animals other than dogs or cats, I could help care for them too:). Currently I babysit twice a week, meaning my schedule is pretty open! That is mainly on Tuesday and Wednesday, however, occasionally will be on a Thursday! 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:)!
“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.”
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!
“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!”
About: Hey there! I’m LeeAnn 🙃 I’m here to help with your cutest, cuddly kitty and sweetest pupper needs! Whether I’m popping in for potty breaks, a quick stroll or making sure Whiskers can’t see there’s an empty spot in the food bowl (Cat parents, am I right?) Honestly I’m looking for something that allows the ability to create my own “flexible” schedule and be more present for my kiddos..the less furrier ones, although they act like wild animals! 🤪 I follow the instructions of the owners requests! In the summertime I am very mindful of the heat* I take a lot of shorter walks for the safety of myself and the dog - I want them to get their energy out but also don’t want the hot pavement burning their paws and/or a heat stroke for the animal nor myself. A lot of inside play consist of toy play! But again, I’m always going to be mindful of owner requests/demands

About: Growing up, my grandparents had 5 dogs and 9 cats - needless to say their house was my favorite place in the world. I have experience with both large and small dogs. I fostered kittens and puppies all throughout college, so I have experience with younger animals as well. I currently have 2 cats of my own. I work during the week M-Th, so I am currently available on the weekends and some holidays. I would also be open to drop-ins some mornings and evenings. I will love your pet like my own!

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.

I’m responsible, attentive, and love spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for in their own environment. I’m attentive, responsible, and will treat your pets like they’re my own.

“Brittany was amazing when she took care of our dogs for a whole week! We boarded them at her home and I’m know our pups enjoyed their stay! She updated us everyday and we are forever grateful! We would use her again in a heartbeat!”
“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!”
“David and Krysta were fantastic. They have a wonderful family and my dog felt comfortable almost immediately after I dropped her off. David kept me informed, on the daily activities, sent me pictures, and provided behavioral updates. David and Krystal responded promptly adjusting to me very short notice request to drop off Bree and when I arrived ahead of schedule to pick her up. I would highly recommend this family if you need assistance in caring for your love ones. Truly thankful for this experience as it was my first but will not be my last.”
“Alex took wonderful care of Donny! We are so thankful! We were traveling for a family vacation but needed a few night for Donny to stay somewhere - I was nervous but she sent wonderful updates and took wonderful care of him!”
“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.”
“Heather was wonderful and took such good care of Dad’s dog while we were away! Great communication and responded promptly whenever we messaged her. Relieved the stress of not being able to take his dog with us. I can not thank her enough!”

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.
“Allison was the best sitter that I could have ever asked for! She communicated with me everyday, multiple times a day with updates. My pup was almost sad to leave her house! I would recommend her 100 times over to anyone and will definitely be using her again if I need boarding or sitting. Thank you again, Allison!”
“We had a great experience! Ginny was very nice, kept us updated with pictures, and took great care of Cali and Diego. They’re both completely knocked out today, so I’m pretty sure they had a great time! 😂 We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We will miss Ashlea so much when we move! It’s so hard to find good dog sitters and Ashlea goes above and beyond every time and we will recommend her every time! We are blessed to have known her and her family our dogs will truly miss her!”
“We couldn't be happier with the kindness that Brittney showed us and our pup Ollie! She sent us pictures everyday of our dog and we felt so good about leaving him for our 2-week vacation. Oliver is usually nervous and has severe separation anxiety, but he was taken care of so well by Brittney that he looked healthy, happy, and well exercised when we picked him up. We HIGHLY recommend Brittney and hope to use her services again soon!!”
“I highly recommend Logan. Our dog was happy from the time we dropped him off all the way through to us picking him up. We were nervous because we had never done this before, but we are so happy with how our dog was taken care of.”
“Ky was awesome! She kept me posted on my furbaby and sent me photos. Cheese liked her energy and wasn’t scared or nervous with her or in her home. I will definitely be booking with Ky again! ?”
“Mary was an absolute doll. She kept me well informed of Kumas stay. She made sure to keep Kumas schedule to the dot & she helped me keep him from chewing all of his personal stuff for his crate. What a wonderful woman. I definitely recommend her, I’ll be booking her again for my holidays next year. ☺️☺️”
“Tammy is sooo amazing! She’s so sweet and caring. She responds very fast and sent plenty of updates and pictures of my two babies. I was concerned with my younger dog not getting along with others and she allowed me into her house for awhile late at night to ensure he would be comfortable and happy! They played so much and enjoyed it there. She also went out of her way and got a collar for one of my dogs because his was too big and fell off. Definitely would take my dogs to her and her sweet fun family again ❤️”
