“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She took incredible care of our dog, treated her like family, played with her constantly, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. We especially appreciated all the photo and video updates — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about animals and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring. Definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Naomi is very caring with all her animals. She always sends updates with pictures and my little dog always looks so happy and comfortable in her home. I never worry while I am away and Jack is with Naomi because I know he is in good hands.”
“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 💕💕💕”
“Jessica is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had for Callie! Her personal care, excellent communication, and caring heart made the whole experience smooth and worry-free. Callie absolutely loves her, and I appreciate Jessica’s constant updates. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a trusted sitter!”
“I rarely need a pupsitter, and have a difficult time feeling comfortable with leaving our old girl, Cherry, with someone that she's not familiar with. Gabriella welcomed my husband, Cherry, and me into her home a couple of weeks before the scheduled stay and was so patient with us and open to learning about Cherry. For the actual pupsitting (Saturday/Sunday/Monday), the drop-off was seamless and communication throughout Cherry's stay was fantastic! I received many pupdates with videos and pictures. Our girl was treated like one of the family there, which we really appreciate. I recommend Gabriella (and family) for a top-notch loving environment for boarding. We will definitely reach out to her for any future boarding needs.”
“Ana was amazing with my German Shepherd Harper. I hope she is available next time I'm in the area. I know harp had a great time and she kept my updated with pictures without me asking”
“Pepper clearly had a wonderful time with Dakota's family. Lots of play time with other dogs, lots of cuddle time with her children, and lots of attention. Pepper was also the model for a great drawing from Dakota's daughter, and that drawing now is posted on my refrigerator! During the recent snowstorm, a rarity in this part of Arkansas, Pepper enjoyed the experience with Dakota's family her dogs.Will certainly bring her back for another visit when it's time!”
“I'm so grateful for Nichole and her family taking care of my baby and accepting him on a short notice. He felt right at home. This is the first time I used Rover, and I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving him with her. The messages of updates and photos or videos were also a wonderful touch, knowing he was well taken care of.”
“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!”
“I was out of town for a few days, and Harvey took very good care of my puppies. When I dropped them off, they were so excited it was like they already knew him, even though it was their first time meeting him. He shared pictures of them while I was away, and they looked very happy and relaxed. When I picked them up, they still seemed so happy (aside from being excited to see me, of course!). I would recommend Harvey with no problem if you need someone kind and sweet to take care of your pets.”
“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.”
“i would recommend million with anyone forever! as soon as nova got out of the car to meet million she felt at home so comfortable , she has such a great connection with dogs. she took such great care of Nova my husky lab that is literally a ball of energy. i had a vacation and nova did as well, i was kept updated at all time many pictures and videos were sent to me and nova was so happy.”
“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!”
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.
“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.”
“David and Krysta were so sweet to our Cooper! Communication and photos while we were away were an added bonus! We highly recommend and will plan to use them again if we are in the area!”
“Erik took such great care of my dog! He sent pictures and updates everyday. He took my dog on many walks/runs! I would highly recommend Erik to anyone that is visiting the Emerald Coast area and is in need of dog care!”
“I had planned to board my girl at her normal boarding place, but she had kennel cough so they couldn't take her. Kind of at the last minute, I got on Rover and found Andrew and Maria and it couldn't have been a better experience. I can tell she was well cared for, they sent pictures and videos, and she just had a good time. I was hesitant about sending her off with someone I don't know, but I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for someone to take care of your pets.”

“Vanessa was terrific and really put us at ease to leave our pets in her care. She was reliable and responsible with our kitties. They warmed up to her in a few days as she was a natural with them. We really are 100% pleased and feeling great about finding Vanessa.”
“What a wonderful experience! Kristin Lynn always takes such good care of my cat and sends great photos. She’s communicative and super punctual, and I know my cat is safe with her. He even gets on her lap which is something that usually takes a while for him! Would recommend without hesitation.”
“We were scrambling last minute for a sitter for our cat, and luckily ran across Hack. He was great with our guy, and great to keep us updated on how he was while we were away. We didn’t worry at all. Highly recommend! ❤️”

“Was scrambling to find a sitter the night before work and Ana was so accommodating. My pup is still learning how to be around people/dogs and she was so warm & welcoming. I got update pictures throughout the day and Knoxx looked so happy to be there! She is absolutely amazing and most definitely will be using her services again!”
“If I could leave a 10 star I would definitely do so. Gabriela was absolutely wonderful! She sent videos and pictures of Mr.Roadie. You definitely could tell she and her sweet girls made him feel at home. If we are ever back in Destin Florida we will definitely be completely comfortable leaving our Precious Mr.Roadie with Gabriela & her Family.”
“Nicole was WONDERFUL to deal with! We booked very last minute changed plans 3 times and picked her up early due to plan changes and Nicole was super cool and easy to communicate with the entire time. My pup is very anxious and she went right into Nicoles home like she had been there 100 times. Finding a sitter for Lilah is soooo difficult and stressful with her anxiety and Nicole made it a breeze. She truly was a blessing 💕”

About: Having Dogs around makes my world a better place. After my dog of 17 years, I’m not ready for forever but want to extend my heart to care for others.

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.
About: I've always had pets growing up from turtles, fish, ferrets and cats and dogs! I have watched several of my friends and family pets. I am currently working from home 40 hours a week and can host a dog or 2 depending on size for daycare/boarding. I am also available for morning and evening check-ins and walks! I do work from home so your babies can come hang out with me and my puppers during the work day and play out all their energy! I do have a 1.5 yr old golden doodle who loves to play and stays home with me now that I work from home. We love to go on walks or go to the park.

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!”

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.
“Gabriela was fantastic and flexible with my schedule when I needed last minute walks! She was thorough with documenting happenings along the walk as well as posting several photos and videos throughout! Mia loved having her over! Highly recommend!!”
“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: 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!
“She has done outstanding work with my two dogs. One is extremely difficult and almost impossible for any strangers to get near, let alone get a leash on and take her for a walk. Rebecca was able to get her on a leash, take her for walks, and even pick her up, all within a few days! I was extremely desperate to find a dog walker for when I’m at work. She has by far exceeded my expectations, and I don’t know what I would’ve done without her.”

I can drop in once a day, or as many times as necessary to make sure your fur-friends are behaving ;). Your fur-baby staying at my house? They're gonna get spoiled! We go to the pool, the sound, the parks, just about anywhere they allow dogs. I arrange play dates and we walk. Lots of love and attention! I do have 3 cats of my own who have free roam of my house. I do have a pet door for small animals, and a fenced in backyard.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for 19+ years! From dog walking to house sitting (cats included)❤️ Neighbors, family, and friends - I’m the one they call 😊 I’ve cared for puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I have even helped a mama cat give birth and cared for her kittens! I have also volunteered at The Humane Society and a Blind Cat Rescue 🥰 I’m currently a stay-at-home wife with a Dalmation and two indoor cats of my own. I don’t have a strict schedule so I’m open every day of the week. :) I treat my pets like my children so I most certainly will treat your pets the same! My pets are all fully vaccinated and flea and tick treated.

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.

“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! She took incredible care of our dog, treated her like family, played with her constantly, and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. We especially appreciated all the photo and video updates — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about animals and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring. Definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Jessica is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had for Callie! Her personal care, excellent communication, and caring heart made the whole experience smooth and worry-free. Callie absolutely loves her, and I appreciate Jessica’s constant updates. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking a trusted sitter!”
“Ana was amazing with my German Shepherd Harper. I hope she is available next time I'm in the area. I know harp had a great time and she kept my updated with pictures without me asking”
“Pepper clearly had a wonderful time with Dakota's family. Lots of play time with other dogs, lots of cuddle time with her children, and lots of attention. Pepper was also the model for a great drawing from Dakota's daughter, and that drawing now is posted on my refrigerator! During the recent snowstorm, a rarity in this part of Arkansas, Pepper enjoyed the experience with Dakota's family her dogs.Will certainly bring her back for another visit when it's time!”
“I'm so grateful for Nichole and her family taking care of my baby and accepting him on a short notice. He felt right at home. This is the first time I used Rover, and I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving him with her. The messages of updates and photos or videos were also a wonderful touch, knowing he was well taken care of.”
“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!”
“I was out of town for a few days, and Harvey took very good care of my puppies. When I dropped them off, they were so excited it was like they already knew him, even though it was their first time meeting him. He shared pictures of them while I was away, and they looked very happy and relaxed. When I picked them up, they still seemed so happy (aside from being excited to see me, of course!). I would recommend Harvey with no problem if you need someone kind and sweet to take care of your pets.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“David and Krysta were so sweet to our Cooper! Communication and photos while we were away were an added bonus! We highly recommend and will plan to use them again if we are in the area!”
“Erik took such great care of my dog! He sent pictures and updates everyday. He took my dog on many walks/runs! I would highly recommend Erik to anyone that is visiting the Emerald Coast area and is in need of dog care!”
“I had planned to board my girl at her normal boarding place, but she had kennel cough so they couldn't take her. Kind of at the last minute, I got on Rover and found Andrew and Maria and it couldn't have been a better experience. I can tell she was well cared for, they sent pictures and videos, and she just had a good time. I was hesitant about sending her off with someone I don't know, but I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for someone to take care of your pets.”
“Our young lab Storm had a great time hanging out at Jeannette's house this past weekend with her dog. From the way it sounds and how well he slept the night we picked him up he probably played the entire time. She was super easy to communicate with and sent lots of great pics of him hanging out in the water, her house and backyard while he was visiting. We would definitely recommend her for anyone wanting a positive experience for their dog.”
“We were so thankful to have found Vanessa to watch our dog in her home. She has a strong background working with animals and it shows in the approach to her care. She made sure our dog was a good fit for their household & put me at ease before heading out of town. Vanessa is a great communicator and her family is extremely accommodating. Thank you for taking such great care of our sweet girl & making her part of the family while we were gone!”
“Alexandra and crew (people, cats and a dog) were so welcoming that our two aussies were soon happy with their doggie vacation. They had very much built-in play time with the resident dog, and bonded with humans and animals alike in ways we'd not heard of from new contacts since Misty was a puppy (seriously, the pics and descriptions indicated a level of ease, happiness and playfulness we see with them at home). At pick-up time, they were glad to have us visit, but didn't seem completely ready to leave, We cannot imagine a better experience for our pups. If we manage to come to Miramar Beach again, we will definitely try Alexandra again.”
“She was absolutely amazing. Even though she doesn’t have a yard, my puppy got plenty of walks and trips to the dog park. She responded quickly to all of my questions, which I really appreciated. I also forgot to pack a bowl, but she reassured me it was fine and took care of it. She even sent lots of photos and videos of my puppy, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he was excited to see me but also whining because he was leaving them—that really showed me he was treated like family. I would definitely book with her again.”
