I have had cats and ferrets and even babysat a few geckos. I love all animals and love to play with them all. I currently work Monday-Thursday 7-4 and Friday 7-12.

“Lianna is absolutely amazing I would recommend her to anyone! She was so sweet with my pup! She has so much patience and kindness. She really does care for and love dogs. She understands their needs better than most people, and makes sure the dogs are safe and compatible to play together. Honestly she was a complete godsend for me when I really needed someone to watch my pup!”
“This was my first experience with Rover. I have a new rescue and Karina took her time, introducing him to her dogs, and then playtime. It was an awesome First time experience. I hope to use her many times again in the future.”
“Benae was amazing! She loved and spoiled my baby during her Daycare stay! Also, she was so patient with this ridiculous fur mom that was leaving her fur baby for the very first time with a “stranger”🤍🙌🏼 She communicated well and with transparency, and kept you posted during the day with pics & videos. You could tell that she and her family are real animals lovers and enjoy what they’re doing. I definitely recommend her for taking care of your babies🐾❤️”

About: I have over 10 years of experience working with animals, including but not limited to… - Former volunteer of Pensacola Humane Society - Completed internship and seasonal staff with NW FL Wildlife Sanctuary - Providing care + rehoming for dozens of foster cats and dogs - Offering services for pet walking, sitting, and boarding via Rover + WAG apps since 2023 Over the years, I have worked with a wide variety of different animals. Cats and dogs. Old and young. Big and small. Etc. This combination of both personal and professional experience has allowed me to develop all of the skills necessary to guarantee the best care for your fur baby, including but not limited to… - Walking dogs of all varieties! (Large, aggressive, multiple, leash pullers, etc) - Feeding on a set schedule (Requests for special diets accepted) - Training all age groups - Grooming - Enrichment - Cleaning kennels - Administering medicine - First aid - Rehabilitation And more! My schedule is very flexible. I am a full time pet sitter with a part time cafe job so I am often able to accommodate your schedule for walks and sittings. I am able to offer walks and potty breaks 3-5 times per day depending on age and needs. I am home most of the time so I will be able to stay with your pet(s) a majority of the day during boardings. Going on vacation? Work trip? Family emergency? Whatever the situation, you can trust me to watch your pets while you are away! If you choose the boarding option, I am more than happy to welcome your furry friends into my home! The highlight of this option is my backyard, featuring multiple ponds and a nature trail for extra enrichment during your pet’s stay here. (And for the cat parents, a custom built screened in catio as well!) I also have a few pets of my own, there are currently 4 cats and 1 aquatic turtle living in my home. They are friendly and get along with other people and animals, but for safety purposes will be kept in a separate room during the duration of boarding. If you opt for the sitting option instead, I will make sure to make it as comfortable as possible for your pet. I am living in Myrtle Grove and working part time in Downtown Pensacola. I accept sitting requests within a 15 mile radius for convenience, clients at a further distance may consider boarding as an alternative option. I am able to accommodate overnight stays at my residence or yours. Please message me if you have any other rules or requests!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. I treat every dog like my own—with patience, love, and consistency. I have experience with both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play, and cuddle sessions to ensure every pet feels loved, safe, and cared for. I work from home, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. I create a safe, calm environment where pets feel at home. I have a doggie door and a fenced in yard. I follow their routines closely, keep a secure space (no open doors or hazards), and give lots of love and attention. Their comfort and safety always come first.
The median cost per day for doggy day care in West Pensacola is $30
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Pensacola
My rescue pup doesn't do well when being left alone, he spent the first half of his three years in a kennel with very little human interaction. I have been able to work remote since I adopted him, really, but have recently had to go back to occasional work outside of my home. I left him with Sky in a last minute request so I could go train for a new part-time position and she was so gentle with him in spite of his sitting by the door all night and frequent yelping for my return. She provided a loving environment, a peaceful atmosphere because my dog knew he was safe and could cry out without feeling that he was causing a disruption to her household. She was true emotional support for him and I will use her again as we work through this transition and bring him full circle out of his pre-adoption trauma experiences. I recommend her for anyone who is unsure or insecure about leaving their pup due to their emotional needs.
Stephen was the best person I could have trusted with my dog loki, I was so nervous and needed a last minute sitter because we came from 10 hours away and he took the best care of loki, I’m so glad I found him on here! He sent me updates all day and had so much fun with him! 10/10 definitely! Thank you so much!
Stacey has been the biggest help with watching our dog Kalvin while we got everything ready for our big move to Pensacola! She was more than welcomed into bringing Kalvin into her home and he had a great time! I would recommend taking your fur babies to Stacey because she treats them just like her own! Thank you again!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your West Pensacola commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 372 sitters in West Pensacola, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
