“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!”
“Would definitely recommend! I know my girl had a great time here (apparently she loved the pool). Kayla/Richard provided photos throughout her stay and updated us on what she had been up to. Will definitely be using in the future!”
“David, Krysta, & family took incredible care of our dog at their house. They were kind, responsive, and welcomed him as one of their own. He was spoiled and I can tell he had a great weekend by how tired he was when I picked him up. They have a great backyard that he was able to get all of his energy out in. I will 100% use them again and again. Thank you!”
“Chelsee was wonderful with our girls! We have two one-year-old, very active dogs and she did not hesitate to take them on! She was very communicative during our trip and sent lots of pictures (which helped us to know how well they were being taken care of). We truly appreciate Chelsee and her care of our girls and would definitely entrust her with their care again !”
“Always takes the best care of our Sophie!! So sweet and loving to our pup, and considerate of us with her daily updates and being flexible when our plans had a major hiccup coming home. Would recommend to any/everyone!”
“Gabrielle was amazing!!! We were in Destin for a family trip and wanted to bring our dogs with us. The resort we were at doesn’t allow pets so we needed a sitter nearby. Our dogs were always safe in her care, and we received tons of updates and photos daily. We were even able to take our dogs for a couple of hours since she was so flexible:) I would definitely recommend Gabrielle for anyone wanting a sitter, and we’ll be booking with her again next time we’re in the area!!❤️”
“Heather was amazing! She sent daily updates and photos of our dog and how he was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was comfortable as he was so nervous and has separation anxiety. He was well cared for and we were at ease the entire time. I would not hesitate to rebook with her.”
“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.”
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.
“Ms Ruby had a fantastic weekend getaway! I received plenty of updates of how she was doing and pictures of how much fun she was having. Finished it off with a spa day! Will definitely have Tami watch her again when I travel!”
“Josie did a great job watching our little dog, Wallace! She made sure that Wallace felt welcome and sent many pictures to let us know that he was happy! She was very thorough with details before we arrived. I highly recommend Josie to watch your dog!”
“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.”
“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!!”
“What a lovely family that cared for my Pug. First time she has stayed at their pet friendly “resort”, but she came back happy! Andrew was very accommodating to my needs for dates and Cassy’s medical needs. I would confidently refer this pet sitter and his family?”
“Katie was a great host to our boxer Lacy. Lacy was very well taken care of during our trip. We were gone 3 weeks, and never had to ask to be updated. Katie would text us how Lacy was doing, and sent both pictures/videos. This was our first Rover experience and it was great. Thank you Katie for taking care of her. We will use Katie in the future. Highly Recommend!!!!”
“Allison took such great care of my cat for 5 days. He’s never been under someone else’s care for the 16 years I’ve had him. He was well cared for and felt safe. Thank you Allison!!!!!”
“Lina was amazing! She and her sweet family took great care of our Yorkie while we were at the beach! We were updated regularly with photos and videos. She even bathed our Kiwi and put little pink pig tails in her hair before we picked her up.”
“We loved having Charlie stay with Marissa! We were thankful to have someone available last minute during the Christmas season who took such good care of our dog! Between the pictures and daily feedback we could see Charlie was extremely comfortable and made himself at home! Definitely someone we can come back to and refer others to take their fur-babies to stay.”

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: 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.

“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.”

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.
About: I have had family pets ever since I was little. I love being surrounded by animals and it is my goal to become a veterinarian. I have a passion for taking care of animals and giving them the love they deserve. I am currently living on a farm in Ponce De Leon FL and care for pigs, sheep, donkeys, chickens, ducks, and guinea fowl along with two dogs and a barn cat. I am an Air Force veteran and currently classes at UWF for a bachelors degree in biology. I am able to do drop in visits at pet homes as well as overnight stays. My current class schedule is all day Tuesdays, half days Wed-Fri and fully available on Mondays. Over the summer I will be taking some classes but most will be online and the only days unavailable will be Tuesday and Thursday. I ensure that when letting pets out, I stay with them and have eyes on them. I value the safety and security of every dog I watch over. I currently live on a farm type property that is approximately 20 acres. It is partially fenced in but our dogs have become accustomed to staying within the property limits. To ensure dog safety I will always be outside with the animals. We also have a multitude of farm animals such as donkeys, chickens, Guinea fowl, turkeys, pigs, and sheep. The birds have free range of the property but the pigs and sheep are in a fenced in area.
About: I’m an avid pet lover, and have owned and cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets, rabbits, and other small rodents. I can’t wait to meet and care for your furry family member. I’m currently a stay at home mom, and have ample ability to pet sit/dog walk in my free time. I’m available M-S even last minute pet sitting gigs. I have a boxer that I provide with the same affection, love, care and energy that I do my children. My pets are a member of my family, and yours will be treated the same.
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: Hi! My name is Francis, and I provide a safe, loving home for your pets while you’re away. We live on 10 private acres in Crestview, so your dog will have plenty of space to explore, run, and enjoy the outdoors in a peaceful, private setting. I have over five years of experience caring for dogs, including walking, house-sitting, and providing long-term care. I also foster both dogs and cats for extended periods of time, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and special needs. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your pup loves to run or just relax, I adjust to their individual needs. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, so I always provide updates and pictures so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. If you’re looking for a calm, spacious, and caring environment for your dog, I’d love to help! Caring for pets is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day, I dedicate time to feeding, play, exercise, and social interaction, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being. I provide attentive, personalized care for pets both in my home and in clients’ homes. This includes feeding, playtime, exercise, administering any medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. I adjust my care routine to each pet’s needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and secure whether they’re in my care or their own home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 13 years old. Neighbors, family and friends relied on me to watch their dogs while out of town and walk , feed and bathe their dogs. I’m currently working part time and lll have plenty of time to walk, feed and play with your pets. I’m available all weekends also to play, feed and bathe your pets. I’m more than willing to go to your house every 2 hours to walk and play and feed your pets. I’ll walk them around the block and let them play outside to get exercise.

About: I am 30 years old and grew up with dogs, horses, goats and cats. I have 2 dogs myself. They are little energetic love balls and I could not imagine my life without them. I am experienced in caring for dogs due to caring for pets of friends and family during their vacation and jobs I have done through rover. My internship at a vet helped me to increase my knowledge about pets and how to care for them even if they are sick and need extra treatment. I would be happy to meet you and your pet before I start helping you out so you know who you are working with. I will do my best to provide the best care for your pet and house. I am available all week. If the visit is after 2:30 I might have my son with me who is just as much of an animal lover as I am. I do not do boarding at the moment as we live in a townhome with a small yard and do not have any room for extra animals.

“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!”
“Would definitely recommend! I know my girl had a great time here (apparently she loved the pool). Kayla/Richard provided photos throughout her stay and updated us on what she had been up to. Will definitely be using in the future!”
“David, Krysta, & family took incredible care of our dog at their house. They were kind, responsive, and welcomed him as one of their own. He was spoiled and I can tell he had a great weekend by how tired he was when I picked him up. They have a great backyard that he was able to get all of his energy out in. I will 100% use them again and again. Thank you!”
“Chelsee was wonderful with our girls! We have two one-year-old, very active dogs and she did not hesitate to take them on! She was very communicative during our trip and sent lots of pictures (which helped us to know how well they were being taken care of). We truly appreciate Chelsee and her care of our girls and would definitely entrust her with their care again !”
“Always takes the best care of our Sophie!! So sweet and loving to our pup, and considerate of us with her daily updates and being flexible when our plans had a major hiccup coming home. Would recommend to any/everyone!”
“Heather was amazing! She sent daily updates and photos of our dog and how he was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure that our dog was comfortable as he was so nervous and has separation anxiety. He was well cared for and we were at ease the entire time. I would not hesitate to rebook with her.”

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.

“Josie did a great job watching our little dog, Wallace! She made sure that Wallace felt welcome and sent many pictures to let us know that he was happy! She was very thorough with details before we arrived. I highly recommend Josie to watch your dog!”
“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!!”
“What a lovely family that cared for my Pug. First time she has stayed at their pet friendly “resort”, but she came back happy! Andrew was very accommodating to my needs for dates and Cassy’s medical needs. I would confidently refer this pet sitter and his family?”
“Katie was a great host to our boxer Lacy. Lacy was very well taken care of during our trip. We were gone 3 weeks, and never had to ask to be updated. Katie would text us how Lacy was doing, and sent both pictures/videos. This was our first Rover experience and it was great. Thank you Katie for taking care of her. We will use Katie in the future. Highly Recommend!!!!”

“I left Mila with Logan for 10 days and she was amazing with my pup! 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. I’d highly recommend Logan and plan to use her in the future. She made my pup feel right at home!”
