“Lightning always enjoys his stay with Dakota and her family! Traveling back I was delayed and not able to pick him up at his scheduled time, but Dakota was very understanding! Would recommend her services to any pet owner.”
“Gravy the mutt came home happy and well loved. He has only been elsewhere three times in his almost three years of age. One of those times he came home piddling on everything and we haven’t let him elsewhere until now. Erika and Jason did a phenomenal job of treating him like family and we are so very thankful. Highly recommend and will use again 💕💕💕”
“Nicole was amazing for our pups. We have an old pup with epilepsy and bad hips and a little bit younger pup with high energy and Nicole was prepared for the task! She is a great communicator and very kind to both pets and their owners! She definitely gave us much needed peace of mind while we were traveling with our newborn.”
“Very communicative and kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind. My pets seemed comfortable and well cared for when I returned. I appreciated the attention to detail and reliability. Thank you for taking care of them!””
“Sheila was awesome. She gave me great tips on potty training our 5 month old maltipoo puppy. She kept in touch and sent daily photos of Presley. I feel very comfortable with Sheila and will use her again and highly recommend her”
“Jessica and her family took great care of my fur baby while I was on vacation. She fit right in and was hesitant to leave. Will definitely use Jessica again when I am in town.”
“Ana’s home is such an incredible place for my pups when they’re away from home. The affection she has for animals and the love they receive is evident in every photo I receive from her during my four legged family members stay, as well as their demeanor when I pick them up. Highly recommend Ana for your pet care needs. She’ll love them like her own and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, their individual needs and their habits. Can’t express enough how much I appreciate her and her family.”
“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.”
About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From energetic puppies to senior pets who just want a calm companion, I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and needs. For the past 7 years, I’ve worked as a professional animal trainer with marine mammals—so patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are at the core of everything I do. I bring that same thoughtful, reward-based approach to working with dogs and other pets. I currently have a small Pomeranian mix of my own, so I understand just how important it is to trust someone with your four-legged family member. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities—and I’ll care for them just like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits easily into my routine alongside my 9–5 schedule. I’m available for morning and evening visits during the week, and I’m fully available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for more flexible care. I’m careful to only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in my home or yours. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and preferred routines. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm, safe environment. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and work to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. My goal is always to keep your pet happy, stress-free, and well cared for while you’re away.
“This is my second time booking with Robert and everytime he does an awesome job. My anxious dog who is scared of humans greeted him everytime he came home and even let him pet her. He is a great dog sitter!”
“Million and her 2 sons took great care of our dog over the weekend. She sent a bunch of pictures and videos every day; and it was obvious he was getting lots of attention and play time. I know he enjoyed it and we look forward to using her again in the future.”
“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!”
“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.”

“Jeanette and her husband were great with my two doggies! I got an update almost daily and pictures were sent as well. The two are super knowledgeable about k-9s and took perfect care of mine. I would recommend and plan to use again since my pup lab-pit is now the best of friends with hers!”

I asked her to just leave the dishes in the sink, but she went ahead and washed them off, which was a nice surprise. She was also right on time every day. Wonderful pet sitter.”
“Melanie was great with our kitties. She took the time to love on and give all 5 attention every day. Even emptied our dehumidifier each day for us. This was our first time using rover or any pet sitting service, but would definitely book Melanie again. You could tell by the daily photos, how happy the kitties were for their daily check in. Thanks for making our time away easier for us and our kitties!”
“Jennifer was great communicating how my cats were doing and making sure to let me know of anything concerning. She went above and beyond, even cleaning up after the neighborhood bear🫠 I would definitely recommend her to watch your pets!!”

About: I rescued my own cat and patiently nursed them back to health, giving me firsthand experience with administering medications, monitoring health, and providing extra attention when needed.

I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of enrichment, and lots of affection while you’re away.

“This was my first time ever using Rover and Ana made it a very good experience. My 18.5 year old service dog has always been with me but I was visiting in-laws who weren’t allowed to have pets visit their rental home. I didn’t know what to do, so I searched online and found Rover. Ana was quick to respond and helpful. She took good care of my Sophie for the day and was flexible on our schedule. The home was clean and she was so welcoming.”
“Can't thank Samantha enough for taking great care of Lucie! She passed out cold from all the activity with the other dogs. I look forward to taking her back!”

About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was young, from hamsters to fish to dogs and more. I've managed both calm and trouble making animals and have experience dealing with the full age range of pets due to my personal experience as a dog owner, and from my time volunteering as a foster home for dog shelters. I'm currently working part-time, and so I have an incredibly flexible schedule. I'm available for just about hour of day for any period of time. Taking care of animals has been my weekly norm since I was a kid, so it's just what I'm used to. I have a large fenced yard for pets to feel free and roam around, and I've a multitude of my own resources at home such as bowls, crates, and pens to be used as needed. I usually like to give a pet a feel of independence to wander however they'd like throughout the home and yard, but can easily step in if greater supervision is needed. I'm usually always in the same space as my animals.
“We had a great experience with our Rover sitter, Jeanette! She was able to accommodate a last-minute request, which we really appreciated, and took excellent care of our dog while we were away. She sent regular photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how happy and well cared for our pup was. Communication was smooth from start to finish, and we felt completely confident leaving our dog in her care. We would absolutely book with Jeanette again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”

We love getting updates and photos from their adventures-it gives us real peace of mind when we’re away. Highly recommend Macie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog walker!”
“When we need someone to watch our babies again Rebecca is who we will turn to. She kept us updated while we were away and the pets were getting along better when we got back. I do’t know what she said to them but I won’t be surprised if I find our dog and younger cat curled up together. He has become quite protective of her. After Rebecca left, our Maddox cried. He wanted to go with her. Rebecca is a keeper as a sitter. I highly recommend her. Very carring.”
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.
“Darsy has been great. She shows up on time and has been working to gain the trust of our obstinate rat terrier and made progress today to get her out on a walk. As for our puppy, Bella, Darcy has been great with walking her and making sure she gets some water after the walk and playing with her. She’s also been great about working around our schedule. I highly recommend her.”

I have hands-on experience breeding and years of experience showing dogs, which taught me how to understand canine behavior, recognize their individual needs, and provide attentive, responsible care. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention. I know how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully while providing plenty of exercise, affection, and playtime. I treat every dog like family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your furry friend is safe, happy, and loved. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and make their happiness and safety my top priority. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and always keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pup is in great hands Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine always come first. I have a secure fenced yard, a clean and pet-friendly home, and three friendly, well-socialized dogs who love making new friends if your pup enjoys company. I can also keep dogs separated or crate them if preferred. I’ll follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and any special requests to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to be excited to come back every visit!
“Sarah has been really good with my puppy and very patient with my older dog. She’s also very accommodating with our crazy schedule right now and works either us when things change.”
About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid, having dogs around me my whole life. I've helped train the family dogs, and earned the trust of even stubborn puppers everywhere I go. I'm able to pet-sit and walk around a part time schedule. I am free most other time and will take wonderful care of your pets. I will keep open communication with owners as to their pet's needs. I can care for sick or elderly dogs, help train puppies (not certified), and keep pets entertained.
About: Cat owner for years and a dog enrichment volunteer at the local animal shelter here in Florida. I have experience with puppies and kittens from 6 weeks old to senior dogs and cats. Available for your dog walking and drop in needs ♥️ I am currently working and studying from home so have a very flexible schedule to care for your pets. I'm usually available throughout the day! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I can provide regular updates, photos, and messages so owners can have peace of mind while you're away!
About: Hi there! I'd love to help take care of your fur babies while you're away. I offer drop in visits for dogs and cats in the Shalimar/Eglin/FWB area. I also offer dog boarding in my home. If you're interested in requesting to board your dog I want to be certain we are a great fit for your pup. Please see below for details: -Your dog must be ok with other dogs (I personally have 2 large dogs) -Your dog must be ok with cats (I have 1 sassy cat) I do ask your dog be comfortable in a kennel for short periods for the first day or two(Approx 4hrs max at a time,I require this for when I have to leave the house for the first few days while the dogs are still getting to know each other, I want everyone to be safe) After comfort has been established and if you normally allow your dog to free roam and prefer it, that is no problem. We love to let our pups free roam. -I do work Mon-Fri but work 5 minutes away and always come home and hour for lunch I've been working with local rescues and shelters for years walking, caring for, and fostering animals. I've also watched many pets for friends and family. I have a full privacy fenced yard. I enjoy doing drop in visits for both cats and dogs and dog walking. I also love boarding dogs in my home. I love cats and can offer drop in visits in your home for them, however I am unable to board cats in my home(our cat isn't a fan of other cats) I have a military background and understand the challenges military pet owners face. I do have Eglin base access. If you're going on an extended TDY/deployment beyond 3 weeks reach out for special pricing. * I require a meet and greet prior to any boarding confirmation to ensure everyone is comfortable and gets along. The saftey and well being of your pets and mine is my #1 priority. I currently work full time during the day(Mon-Fri) , but am fortunate enough to work only a few minutes from home. I can do drop ins/walks in the morning/evenings. I also come home at lunch or could do drop in/walk during my lunch break if needed. If I'm caring for your pets in your home, I will ask your preferences. If I am boarding them, I allow animals to free roam the home while I am home. While I'm gone I generally kennel to ensure everyone's saftey since I'm not there to keep an eye on eveyone.(I can always make exceptions to this based on the dog, especially once I know eveyone is comfortable with each other) I do have a fully fenced backyard and a doggy door and we will also enjoy daily walks. *Please have your pup wear a collar for their visit with their information on it. Its a simple way to keep them safe in a new environment.
About: Owner of Panhandle Pet Care & Waste Removal. I offer professional pet care services to include POOPER SCOOPER services. I am licensed, insured and bonded for everyone's protection! I would love to meet you and discuss your family's needs! Pets are like children! it is my second nature to make sure those fur babies are well taken care of and need NOTHING! Your pets needs, wants and current routine is my top priority! While I cannot board your pets in my home, I am more than happy to visit your pet where they are most comfortable, IN THEIR HOME!!! This begins our relationship with safety and trust as they are in an environment where they are familiar. If your pup is extra skittish I will more than likely request to stop by a couple times before your departure date. This lets your pet know I am allowed to be in their home and I can be trusted. I will NEVER force myself on any animal, I ALWAYS let them come to me!

“Lightning always enjoys his stay with Dakota and her family! Traveling back I was delayed and not able to pick him up at his scheduled time, but Dakota was very understanding! Would recommend her services to any pet owner.”
“Nicole was amazing for our pups. We have an old pup with epilepsy and bad hips and a little bit younger pup with high energy and Nicole was prepared for the task! She is a great communicator and very kind to both pets and their owners! She definitely gave us much needed peace of mind while we were traveling with our newborn.”
“Jessica and her family took great care of my fur baby while I was on vacation. She fit right in and was hesitant to leave. Will definitely use Jessica again when I am in town.”
“Ana’s home is such an incredible place for my pups when they’re away from home. The affection she has for animals and the love they receive is evident in every photo I receive from her during my four legged family members stay, as well as their demeanor when I pick them up. Highly recommend Ana for your pet care needs. She’ll love them like her own and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, their individual needs and their habits. Can’t express enough how much I appreciate her and her family.”
“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.”
“This is my second time booking with Robert and everytime he does an awesome job. My anxious dog who is scared of humans greeted him everytime he came home and even let him pet her. He is a great dog sitter!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Great experience! Will go back to Samantha when I have to leave again. Lots of pics. I think my dog was bummed to come back! (He doesn't have dog-pals at home).”
“Macie was amazing ! If your looking for a babysitter for your fur baby look no further. She had everything for my two babies. She kept me updated the whole time about how Gucci and kujo was doing . She has a lot of experience!! Her family is the sweetest !”
“Laura was amazing! Super considerate and attentive to my dog. Took time out of her day to get to know him before, and was very flexible with my busy schedule. Would definitely book again.”
“We can't thank Erik enough.. cause we were a pain in the neck. Switching days and extending our vacation and he was so understanding and polite.. he contacted us every morning with updates and new pics of our dog and our dog looked happy and healthy in every Pic.. we could tell when we picked our dog up he was very well taken care of loved the whole time he was with Erik.. we couldn't be happier and will use Erik everytime we vacation in the destin area.. so if you need a sitter in his area do yourself and your pet a big favor and contact Erik.. thank you again Erik”
“Jeanette and her husband were great with my two doggies! I got an update almost daily and pictures were sent as well. The two are super knowledgeable about k-9s and took perfect care of mine. I would recommend and plan to use again since my pup lab-pit is now the best of friends with hers!”
“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”
“Tyeshia was super nice and caring with Baldr. He had a splendid time relaxing with her family, being in a calm household and daily walks is Baldr's favorite past times. We will definitely be seeking her service again when we go away. Thank you Ty”
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! 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!”
“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!”
