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.
“Our pup, Bonnie, had a wonderful time with Anna! She was well taken care of and we got plenty of updates and pictures. We had some uncertainty with our travel plans and Anna had no issue being flexible - which was very much appreciated! Would definitely leave Bonnie with Anna again!”
“Jack and Jordan were so wonderful. They were very accommodating, very responsive and made sure to update me daily. I really felt less stressful knowing my pup was with them versus being in a kennel for a week. This was my first time using Rover and it was the best experience. Junie (my Frenchie) had a blast and we will definitely book again if we are back in the area!”
“Patricia was amazing! She made us feel comfortable right off the bat about leaving Wesley with her. She asked about his usual routine and reassured us she had no problems taking care of him. We received photos and updates daily and felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely book again if Wesley’s welcome back!”
“Aaron was great! Sent daily updates and I could just tell my Nova girl was having the best time. I knew from our initial meet and greet Nova would be in good hands and was so happy she’d have some company. THANKS AGAIN AARON!”
About: I am a dog lover and have volunteered for a local dog rescue for years. I have one dog of my own who loves to play with others. I recently started to dog sit so that she can have play dates. I treat all visitors like my own and can provide lots of good references. I work full time locally 8a-430p but my husband is home during the day and we work as a team. Our dog(s) are our priority and all visitors are treated like our own. We have a 6' privacy fence and a doggie door for play time and a nice cozy house with all the dog stuff for them to hang out in and relax. There are lots of toys and treats to share.
“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!”
About: I have cared for and trained my dog, my mother’s and grandmother’s dogs. I have also provided a variety of personal home-care services to senior citizens, special needs children & nannied off and on throughout my early adult life. I love caring for and helping others. I substitute teach during the school year and I would love to care for pets during the summer time! It is my goal to at least work part time on top of another part time job! :) I have an apartment where I can keep pets for a short amount of time; we have a nice walking area and a dog park.
“Emily and her family were amazing and took very good care of our elderly dog during some thunderstorms. She was very attentive to the schedule we provided and keep us updated with a lot of photos and videos. Her kids and husband really took to Beauty. Thanks again for all the updates.”
“Cindy, thank you so much for taking just the best care of our Lucy, who we understand is young, and still very my in the puppy phase! You kept her entertained, showered her with so much care, and are a Pro! Thanks again!”
“Jenna is THE most WONDERFUL pet sitter EVER!!! The care, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of how awesome she is! I was gone for a little over two weeks and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was taking the best care of my boy. All I can say is WOW, I am so totally impressed! I need never look for any other pet sitter! I have found the VERY BEST!!!! ***** Five stars plus!!!!”
About: Having a dog in the home is something we are well acquainted with and very much enjoy. I am a homeschool mom, and we are rarely our for long periods of time. The kids are gentle with all animals and are a big help with feeding, playing, and cuddling with the pups we've had the blessing to watch. I would LOVE the opportunity to care for your pet! Your pet deserves more than a sitter, they deserve family! We are home during the day and night with the occasional need to be out of the home for a short while. We have plenty of time to love and care for your pup! We have a spacious home and fenced in backyard for your pups to run and play. We have time to go on walks if your dog enjoys that! We recently said goodbye to our best boy, Parker. The house is definitely more quiet without his little paws following us around. We would love the opportunity to care for your baby.
“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.”
“I will definitely use Stephen again! He made it easy and stress free! It’s hard to find somebody willing to go pick up and board a 105lbs Pitbull they never met! Stephen didn’t judge Ralphie based on his breed! He treated Ralphie like part of his family! I was sent pictures and updates on how Ralphie was doing! It gave me peace of mind knowing Ralphie was well taken care of! Which is something I greatly appreciate!”
About: Dog trainer apprentice and lifelong dog and kitty owner! Big dogs, small dogs, nice dogs, and not so friendly dogs! I have always been the one our family friends and neighbors rely on any time they needed assistance with pup-sitting, feeding, or even just general advice. I have experience raising puppies, caring for elderly dogs, and handling experience with larger, stronger dogs. I’ll do whatever I can to ensure your pup is safe and happy! I will also bring my husband along to help with care when he is available! I've made animals apart of my career and my life as a whole. I can say with 100% certainty your animals would be treated with as much love as I give my own! Currently available all week long for drop-ins, walks, doggy daycare, and boarding. I am apprenticing for a dog trainer locally and can adjust my schedule as needed! With my own dogs, I try my best to make sure everyone gets as much potty time and attention as possible! I have a big fenced in yard that your dog will be free to play in whenever they'd like. My personal dogs will be separated from any pets of your own during the duration of their stay due to safety. In your home I am willing to make any accommodations necessary for your pup! Potty breaks, play time, or just giving your pup some company is fine with me!
“Jamie was wonderful. I will definitely be working with her in the future. Very friendly, great with my furry family members, and she even sent me photos throughout the day which was very comforting and the kitties were very happy!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Valparaiso is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Valparaiso
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 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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Valparaiso is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $51 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 402 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Valparaiso. About 91% of Valparaiso sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
