“Our dogs love to go to Sheila's house so much that we don't even have to put them on a leash when we get there... They just run to the front door. And we never worry about anything while our dogs are being cared for by Sheila. Her house is all set up for the dogs and she has a wonderful, large fenced-in backyard.”

In the future we will ABSOLUTELY be electing Madison’s services.”

About: I have had a deep passion for dogs since I was a young girl. My experience in dog care began in high school when I cared for a sick loved one’s dog. Over the course of that year, I not only gained a best friend but also developed a strong sense of responsibility and an appreciation for the joy and companionship that comes with caring for animals. Over the past 3–4 years, I have continued building my experience through dog sitting, and for the past two years, I have worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility. These experiences have strengthened my dedication to providing attentive, compassionate care while maintaining a safe and structured environment. I am committed to supporting both pets and their owners with reliability and professionalism. I start my mornings by getting my son to school between 8:30-9. Mondays & Thursdays I Work From Home with 1 dog. Tuesday Wednesday & Thursdays I’m Working In Destin. Bubba has soccer now so we attend practices and games. At my home I have a fenced backyard, enough space to crate 1-3 dogs if need be. I want the dog to be as comfortable as possible, a home away from home. As for clients homes , they are to be treated with respect & cleanliness it is their safe space, same as my home.
“We had a great experience leaving our sweet little Leo. They sent us updates, pictures, and videos. He even got a little bath before we picked him up. If we ever find ourselves in Destin again, we will definitely be dropping Leo off here.”
“Monica was amazing and a total life-saver! We needed last minute boarding for our labradoodle puppy while on vacation and she responded immediately and was the absolute best! She loved on our puppy and sent updates and pictures and we knew he was having the best time! Would give more than 5 stars if we could! Thanks so much, Monica!!”
“Harvey accepted our booking about two days before us arriving in town! We were very anxious to leave HoneyBear with him, but she went straight to him and went right in his home. When she was standing at the door barking as we left, he gently closed the door, which definitely helped us and possibly HoneyBear, too. When I reached out to Harvey, he responded quickly and sent us pictures of HoneyBear as well. She was always on the couch (probably beside him)! When we picked her up, she seemed to be content and obviously happy to see her human dad. Harvey definitely earned our trust with HoneyBear’s visit!”
“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!”

“Nancy was amazing. I booked her to watch my cat Lulu for a few days while I was away on a trip. This was my first time leaving her with a sitter and I’m so glad I found someone as great as Nancy to watch her. She communicated with me very well and went above and beyond in keeping me updated about my cat’s skin condition and even applied medication on her as well. She was respectful enough to ask me ahead of time if her daughter could join her for her visits & even acknowledged that it wasn’t fitting after their interactions. I appreciated that she sent me photos of Lulu while I was away as it made me feel better about leaving her. I already have Nancy booked for the future! I highly recommend booking with her. ☺️”

“This was my first time leaving my kitty alone and he made me feel so comfortable!

Communication was great and I will definitely rebook next time I need a sitter!”

I'm usually always in the same space as my animals.

About: Hi, I’m Jennifer! Animals have always been at the center of my life. I grew up in rural Pennsylvania surrounded by the Amish community, where caring for animals, from cows and goats to dogs and cats, was simply part of daily life. That early experience shaped my respect for animals of all kinds and gave me a lifelong passion for their care. Today, I’m proud to be both a certified yoga instructor and a devoted pet mom to three wonderful dogs and several cats. I bring the same patience, energy, and mindfulness from my yoga practice into how I care for animals. Over the past 20 years, I’ve gained extensive experience with dogs and cats of all ages, but I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and cats. From gentle walks to providing comfort and administering medications, I understand the extra attention and compassion they need in their golden years. Whether your pet needs an energetic play session, a calming stroll, or specialized senior care, I adapt to their unique personality and routines. I am flexible, reliable, and committed to making your life easier while giving your pet the very best care. You can relax knowing your four-legged family member is in good hands. I treat every pet like my own, because I know how much trust it takes to leave your fur-baby in someone else’s care. Walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. No task is too big or too small.
About: I’ve shared my home with both dogs and cats my whole life, so I know that every pet has their own unique personality. Most recently, I fostered a tiny 6 week old kitten, which taught me patience, gentle care, and how to handle the most fragile little ones. Whether your pet is a senior needing extra love or a playful puppy, I will treat them like my own family. You can trust me to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for while your away. I keep a flexible daily routine, which makes it easy to fit pet care in around your pet's schedule rather than the other way around. Morning and evening visits, midday check-ins, and feeding routines all work well for me. I'm reliable about sticking to whatever schedule your pet is used to. I’ll follow your routine exactly, feeding, walking, and playtime on your schedule. I'll give lots of love and cuddles, keep things clean, and send you daily photo updates so you never have to worry. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same respect I give my own.

About: While professional dog walking for others is new for me, caring for dogs is not. I was lucky to spend 14 amazing years with my own dog, who was truly my soul dog and taught me so much about patience, attentiveness, routine, and unconditional love. After recently stepping away from my corporate career to slow down and focus on things that genuinely bring me joy - spending time with dogs, being active outdoors, creating meaningful connections. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I would care for them with the same kindness, attention, and love I gave my own. Whether your furry friend loves long walks, playtime, or simply companionship, I'm excited to provide a safe, fun and loving experience for them. Because I've recently stepped away from a corporate career I am flexible with my time, which allows me the ability to care for your furry friend. Dog walking is the perfect fit for this season of life because it combines my love for dogs, being active outdoors, and building meaningful connections in my community. You can expect dependable communication, punctuality, lots of love and attention for your pup, and someone who will care for them as if they were my own. At this time, I’m focusing exclusively on dog walking so I can provide the best possible experience and attention to each pup I care for. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I will make sure they are securely leashed, closely supervised, walked in safe areas, and cared for according to your instructions and their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys energetic walks or a slower pace, you can expect dependable care, patience, and lots of love every step of the way.

“Excellent care for Solo and great communication with me. Ana quickly responded to any questions during the booking process and provided daily picture updates during Solo’s stay. She walked Solo daily and provided plenty of playtime. 10/10 would definitely book with Ana again.”
“Madison was an absolute rockstar with my 8 month old pup. She was kind, and extremely caring with Cali. She kept me updated on Cali daily - my little girl was BEAMING in every picture from ear-to-ear. Cali misses having a buddy like Roma to run around with for sure. In the future we will ABSOLUTELY be electing Madison’s services.”
“Jordan was fantastic and took great care of my fur baby. My pup can be high maintenance, but Jordan was very good at attention to detail and great with interacting with her and sending photos.”

His house is dog proofed with gates up. Robert is a PRO! He gave haley her medicine. He knows how to handle to handle dogs, and i just can't say enough nice things about how he treated my dog. I don't even think my dog wanted to go home! Thank you so much robert for taking such good care of our beloved dog, it is so nice knowing we have a place to put haley when we go away and don't have to worry.”
About: I have had a deep passion for dogs since I was a young girl. My experience in dog care began in high school when I cared for a sick loved one’s dog. Over the course of that year, I not only gained a best friend but also developed a strong sense of responsibility and an appreciation for the joy and companionship that comes with caring for animals. Over the past 3–4 years, I have continued building my experience through dog sitting, and for the past two years, I have worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility. These experiences have strengthened my dedication to providing attentive, compassionate care while maintaining a safe and structured environment. I am committed to supporting both pets and their owners with reliability and professionalism. I start my mornings by getting my son to school between 8:30-9. Mondays & Thursdays I Work From Home with 1 dog. Tuesday Wednesday & Thursdays I’m Working In Destin. Bubba has soccer now so we attend practices and games. At my home I have a fenced backyard, enough space to crate 1-3 dogs if need be. I want the dog to be as comfortable as possible, a home away from home. As for clients homes , they are to be treated with respect & cleanliness it is their safe space, same as my home.
“We had a great experience leaving our sweet little Leo. They sent us updates, pictures, and videos. He even got a little bath before we picked him up. If we ever find ourselves in Destin again, we will definitely be dropping Leo off here.”
“Monica was amazing and a total life-saver! We needed last minute boarding for our labradoodle puppy while on vacation and she responded immediately and was the absolute best! She loved on our puppy and sent updates and pictures and we knew he was having the best time! Would give more than 5 stars if we could! Thanks so much, Monica!!”
“Harvey accepted our booking about two days before us arriving in town! We were very anxious to leave HoneyBear with him, but she went straight to him and went right in his home. When she was standing at the door barking as we left, he gently closed the door, which definitely helped us and possibly HoneyBear, too. When I reached out to Harvey, he responded quickly and sent us pictures of HoneyBear as well. She was always on the couch (probably beside him)! When we picked her up, she seemed to be content and obviously happy to see her human dad. Harvey definitely earned our trust with HoneyBear’s visit!”
“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!”
“Erik was awesome! Very flexible with picking up and dropping off my dog. He has a big backyard and sent photo updates. Overall wonderful experience. Will definitely schedule with him next time I’m in the area.”
“Laura took great care of our pups while we were away! She kept us updated, sent pictures, helped one of our dogs with a bug bite, and even had them brushed and ready to come home. We’re so grateful and would definitely book again!”
“Macie was amazing, so thankful for her and her family to board our cat while we stayed at the beach. She was caring and communicated with us every step of the way. I felt comfortable and was able to enjoy my trip with my family knowing our fur baby was in good hands. Thank you Marcie and family!”
“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!”
