Patricia will be my go to for Taters home away from home in the future. Super happy with my and Taters experience. Thank you for taking excellent care of my little buddy while I was away.”
“I can say honestly hands down Emili was the best. I’ve never had to leave lax with anyone , so when this trip came up , I needed someone I could trust explicitly. I met Emili with Lax one afternoon and he definitely liked her as well as I did. She took notes about lax ( habits, eating schedules , vet and was very thorough with anll her questions . She went over hs medications and kept me abreast of all that he was doing . I so appreciated the pics and check ins as it made the trip much easier . I knowing he was so well taken care of . I would definitely use Emili again .”
“Bella was so very sweet and Simba had a great time with them and their pup Avie. She sent pictures and responded quickly when I messaged her. Simba was happy to see us when we picked him up but after a quick greeting he went right back to playing with Avie. We would definitely use them again. Thank you so much for loving our boy while we were gone.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was young, including dogs, cats, senior pets, and pets with special routines. I have two dogs and a three-legged cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, attentive, and trustworthy caring for your pets. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, crate routines, medication reminders, basic grooming needs, and giving pets the time they need to feel safe. My background in healthcare and the military has also made me very detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and good at following instructions carefully. I know pets are family, and I treat them with the same care and respect I would want someone to give mine. I’m not currently working outside of caring for pets so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, boarding, and house sitting depending on your pet’s routine. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, potty breaks, medications, walks, playtime, crate time, and bedtime routines. Because my schedule is open, I can give pets more one-on-one care and help keep their day as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my biggest priorities. I have a fenced yard and can provide supervised potty breaks, playtime, and quiet rest time. Because I have pets of my own, I’m careful with introductions and can keep animals separated with crates, doors, or gates whenever needed. I never force interactions and always pay attention to each pet’s body language, stress level, and comfort. I’m also very careful with feeding instructions, medications, leash safety, doors, gates, and routines. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I want you to feel confident that they are being watched closely, treated kindly, and cared for like family.
“I am very happy we found Sydney to watch our two dogs for a week! She was wonderful to work with and made sure to keep us in the loop by giving us updates and including some pictures of the puppers! We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Grace was amazing! Our dog is an active 10 month old puppy and Grace handled her energy levels greatly! She gave us consistent updates and communication throughout the whole process was quick! Would definitely recommend using her to anyone!”
“Brittany was absolutely amazing with our dogs Sid and Tucker! We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such great hands while we were away. She was kind, reliable, and took such great care of both of them. We also ended up needing them to stay an extra day on pretty short notice, and Brittany was incredibly accommodating and flexible, which we appreciated so much. It made our trip so much less stressful knowing our boys were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Brittany again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets! 🐾🩵”
About: I love animals. All of them! I have always loved animals since I was a little girl. I love spending time with animals, loving on them, playing with them and teaching them new tricks! It would be a privilege to care and love on your furbaby while you are at work, out of town or just need a few hours to yourself! I prefer to stay local in the Niceville,FL area. I am willing to accomodate Destin but depends how far the client is. Let me care for your furry family member today! Now that I am a stay at home mother and wife, I have a lot more free time to devote in caring for your pet. My schedule is pretty flexible so don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have! I would be more than excited to love on your furry friend today! I have a fenced in yard with ample room for your pet to roam around in. I also am able to crate your pet if need be. You would just need to provide the crate and anything else you would want your pet to have to make sure his/her stay is a comfortable one.
“Roxie loved Maddison! Maddison treated Roxie like the little princess Roxie is. She took her on walks and gave her so much attention. Roxie is very anxious and when I picked her up from Maddison’s she was excited to see us but not anxious at all. I eould absolutely trust her with any of my animals and look forward to having h mer take care of Roxie again.”
“Nancy was wonderful with our very old dog. Everything went perfectly during our first time using her service. She was prompt in responding to any questions we had. We will most definitely reach out to Nancy in the future!”
“A godsend and a lifesaver, my dog was very well cared for and may pics to prove it. Brittany and her husband are wonderful people I will continue to use their services every time I'm in need of it. THANK YOU.”
“Another amazing experience with Daniela! This was Penny’s second stay with Daniela, and it went just as smoothly as the first if not better. Daniela has such a calm and loving energy that Penny clearly feels at home with her. I got regular updates and adorable photos that showed just how comfortable (and spoiled) Penny was. Daniela goes above and beyond, not just watching your pet, but genuinely caring for them like they’re her own. It’s such a relief knowing I can trust her with my pup. Thank you again, Daniela Penny can’t wait to come back!”
“Charlie was great with my doodles! It is always scary trusting someone with your furry children but Charlie was fantastic and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet sitter.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 dogs that I’ve raised from puppies. I started off dog sitting for my family and some friends, ranging from small to large and young to old. I have experience administering medications such as pills, supplements, and needles. I’ll treat your pup just like my own! I work full-time, so I am available to do drop-ins and walks on the weekends. I can board your pup at my home on any day of the week if they are good with other dogs and babies. My husband works from home most days, so boarded dogs will receive care throughout the day while I am at work. Dogs are never left alone more than 6 hours. For drop ins and walks- I’ll follow your care instructions and provide you updates/pictures. For boarded dogs- We have a large fenced yard for our dogs to run around and play together! Dogs are free to roam the house but can be crated if needed.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Valparaiso is $40

This was our first time booking with Sariah and our first time ever leaving our dog with someone, so we were naturally a little nervous. Sariah went above and beyond to make both my husband and me feel comfortable and at ease. She took such amazing care of Juliet, kept us updated, and sent us pictures throughout her stay. If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Sariah is absolutely the person to go to! She was literally AMAZING, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re so grateful we found her and will definitely be booking with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to their fur baby!
We had a wonderful experience having Maya stay with Rosie and her family in their home. From the start, we felt very comfortable leaving Maya in their care. She received daily walks, lots of attention, and clearly felt right at home. Rosie and her family did an excellent job communicating with us and sent us photos every day, which we really appreciated and enjoyed seeing while we were away. Knowing Maya was happy, comfortable, and well cared for gave us great peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely use Rosie and her family again. Highly recommended!
We had a great experience with Jeannette. She took wonderful care of my dog. I live in an area that has no reliable pet care, so my dog travels with me and stays with a local sitter. I’m always a little nervous, but Jeannette was very communicative prior to and great from our first meet. I would definitely use her again if I travel back to Destin.
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!
Cheryl was recommended by a friend who also had a semi high needs furbaby. She did an amazing job keeping my boy happy, administering his medication, and enforcing his elimination diet. He has epilepsy and this is the first time he has come home from a Rover sitter and NOT had a seizure afterward. I’m thankful I found her and you will be too!
We were very pleased with the care Liznel gave our kitties! She was available to watch them after our initial Rover person cancelled the week of our vacation. She was flexible with drop off and pickup and handled giving them meds very well. The cats adapted to their new home well and enjoyed the attention from Liznel and her daughter. A great experience overall.
