“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.”
“5,000 stars and YES!! I came in from out of town for a conference and needed to board my dog. My dog received over-the-top treatment, which is still an understatement. My pup, Laika, is codependent, and Ana’s son, William, bonded to an extreme degree with Laika — so much so that Laika was depressed the first few days back with me. I can’t recommend this Rover house enough! Ana and her son, William, sent Laika and myself home with homemade dog treats, and a cute container decorated for Christmas!”
“Absolutely amazing. I had a short notice trip and Erika was able to watch my two dogs. She was very flexible with the drop off and pick up and provided great communication during the stay. I will plan to use her again for future trips.”
“I was new to the area and looking to find a sitter for my dog on short notice. I connected with Nicole and she took great care of my dog during my travels. Communications were easy and she worked with me on a few scheduling challenges. My dog was very happy in her care and Nicole sent a fun video during the stay. Highly recommend.”
“Gabriela and her family took such amazing care of my babies! She sent multiple pictures a day with updates so I never once worried how they were doing. This was definitely my best experience with Rover and would love if she could petsit again in the future!”
“We had a great experience! She took excellent care of our dogs, kept us updated, and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention. We would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“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!”
“There is no way to be able to let you know what a great job Sheila did taking care of Sprinkles while I was away. She not only spent the entire week making sure that Sprinkles was happy and comfortable, but she also made her a welcome member of her family. She added many extra touches to ensure that she was content, including a very cute pedicure. Thank you so much for your exceptional care of Sprinkles, and I will be leaving Sprinkles with Sheila at every opportunity.”
“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.”
“She's so sweet and great with the pups. They love going to her house and don't even look back! Laura has also gone out of her way to help me with other animals who stay home, cats and birds. I'm so grateful! Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Robert went above and beyond watching our dog, who can be a handful. He sent us pictures daily and haley just had a great time. He has a dog named charlie, and haley has a new boyfriend! 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.”
“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”
“Barbara was an excellent caregiver for my baby, Cody. We both learned that Cody has separation anxiety as he is never away from his family. Barbara worked through it and made the environment comfortable for him as she could see he was stressed out and depressed. She sent messages, pics and videos to ease my mind. Barbara is amazing and should be commended for her patience with our babies.”
“I adore Jeannette and so did my fur baby! I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her. I was pleased with all the updates and the photos she sent me. Jetta was so happy and loved her dog. They had the best time playing together and going on walks. I would absolutely recommend Jeannette!”
“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.”

“Clarissa did such a great job taking care of not only my two cats but my aquatic turtle. Having never used something like Rover, after meeting Clarissa it was such a relief knowing my babies and my home were in such safe hands! Thank you!”
“Rebecca was awesome! We contacted her last minute and she was able to take care of our two fur babies. She kept us updated and sent pictures. This was our first time leaving them with a sitter so we were hesitant at first but glad we found her!”
“Melanie dropped by our home to check on our two kittens. She always sent updates and pictures. She communicated very well and was super trustworthy! We’ll definitely have her watch our cats again 😊”
“Absolutely amazing!! My one cat that NEVER comes out for anyone but me warmed up to her and clearly trusted her. So happy my babies were cared and loved for while I was gone”
“Kathryn was very easy to get along with and she has a clear love of cats. She sent short but clear daily updates of feedings, cleanings, and how my cat was doing and interacting with her.”
“Kendall was great with my cats! Normally when we come home from a trip they seem agitated, but after having Kendall check on them they were happy, calm and seemed like they got a mini vacation too. Would highly recommend Kendall to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Alexis was very flexible and kept us up to date. We had to make last minute changes to our travel plans and she worked with us very well. She took very good care of our little pup :) Thank you Alexis!”
“Vanessa is amazing!! She took great care of my cat. Her thoughtfulness and consistent updates took the weight of being away from my furry child off my shoulders. I would definitely recommend!”
“We had Jennifer check in on our cats while we were away for Thanksgiving, and she did an amazing job. Her communication was great and always kept us in the loop. She was professional, reliable, and went above and beyond—bringing in our packages and even cleaning up after the cats when they made a mess. We came home to happy pets and everything taken care of. Highly recommend Jennifer for anyone needing trustworthy and attentive pet care!”

“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!”

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.
“They took good care of my baby, Perry. We came to Miramar, FL not knowing that you need a permit to bring dogs to the beach- which was the plan to bring Perry to see the beach for the first time- and Andrew & Maria came to the rescue to babysit Perry for a whole day while my husband & I had a beach date. Definitely will contact them again next time we're there.”

I look forward to taking care of your sweet babies while you are away!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for pets since my teenage years and have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from small companion breeds to large German Shepherds. I’m currently the proud dog mom of Neptune, our 7-year-old Pomsky, and two rescued shelter cats from Louisiana. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal with patience, attention, and genuine care. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. My husband also works remotely part-time from home, so there is usually someone home during the day. Our teenage daughter is home for the summer as well, meaning your pets will receive lots of love, attention, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We recently added a fenced 0.34-acre yard with plenty of room for supervised outdoor play and exercise. Our home is calm, family-oriented, and full of animal lovers, with multiple people available to give attention and care. I’m experienced with dogs of many sizes and personalities and will always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

This allows me to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. In my home, I provide a safe, spacious, and welcoming environment.

I also have two children and a friendly dog, so your pet will have plenty of companionship and feel right at home. In a client’s home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care—so they stay comfortable in their familiar environment.
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 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.

“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.”

“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: 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: 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.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid, having dogs around me my whole life.

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: 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!
About: I have had a variety of pets my entire life including dogs, cats, mice, hampsters, gerbils, lizards, and fish. I am the one my family and friends call when they go out of town to watch the house and take care of the pets. :) I am also an Uber driver, so I am extremely flexible to make sure your personal needs are met. 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.

“5,000 stars and YES!! I came in from out of town for a conference and needed to board my dog. My dog received over-the-top treatment, which is still an understatement. My pup, Laika, is codependent, and Ana’s son, William, bonded to an extreme degree with Laika — so much so that Laika was depressed the first few days back with me. I can’t recommend this Rover house enough! Ana and her son, William, sent Laika and myself home with homemade dog treats, and a cute container decorated for Christmas!”
“I was new to the area and looking to find a sitter for my dog on short notice. I connected with Nicole and she took great care of my dog during my travels. Communications were easy and she worked with me on a few scheduling challenges. My dog was very happy in her care and Nicole sent a fun video during the stay. Highly recommend.”
“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!”
“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.”
“She's so sweet and great with the pups. They love going to her house and don't even look back! Laura has also gone out of her way to help me with other animals who stay home, cats and birds. I'm so grateful! Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Robert went above and beyond watching our dog, who can be a handful. He sent us pictures daily and haley just had a great time. He has a dog named charlie, and haley has a new boyfriend! 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.”
“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”
“Barbara was an excellent caregiver for my baby, Cody. We both learned that Cody has separation anxiety as he is never away from his family. Barbara worked through it and made the environment comfortable for him as she could see he was stressed out and depressed. She sent messages, pics and videos to ease my mind. Barbara is amazing and should be commended for her patience with our babies.”
“I adore Jeannette and so did my fur baby! I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her. I was pleased with all the updates and the photos she sent me. Jetta was so happy and loved her dog. They had the best time playing together and going on walks. I would absolutely recommend Jeannette!”
“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.”
“Macie was wonderful! I know Rocky was taken care of. She sent frequent pics of my dog exercising and enjoying his time. She was prompt to respond and was professional throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend her!”
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’m available anytime after dropping my son off to school @8:30am. Or before/after picking him up from aftercare, by 5:30pm. I box on weekdays but can go around what ever is needed. 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.
“David and Krysta are the best! They kept us in the loop updates and lot of pictures. Our pups looked so happy and spoiled the whole time! They were super flexible when my flight got in a little early and had everything packed up and ready to go when I got there. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Eric is a great sitter. I never worry about Stella when she is in his care. Eric is flexible and easy to work with. He keeps me updated on her daily. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
