About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely love animals and believe they deserve the same love, patience, and attention we give our own family. I'm dependable, responsible, attentive to details, and understand how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your pets. I believe every pet has its own personality, needs, and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it's caring for energetic puppies, providing extra patience and attention to senior pets, going on walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I'll treat your pets as if they were my own. My goal is simple: happy pets, happy owners, and one less thing for you to worry about! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be flexible and dependable. I'm currently looking for the right career opportunity, which gives me flexibility to dedicate time and attention to caring for pets. I understand that consistency is important, whether it's maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I want pet owners to feel confident knowing their pets are receiving reliable, loving care and aren't just being checked on, but genuinely cared for. I have a fenced-in front yard and a pet-friendly home with three dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My pets are safe, loved, and well cared for, and I understand how important it is to provide a secure and comfortable environment. I'm comfortable working pet care into my daily routine and making sure every animal gets the attention, exercise, affection, and care they deserve. I treat every pet like family!

I have a flexible schedule (I work from home) and am available most anytime. I prefer Arab to be my area so I can help out as many people I can and not be traveling too much keeping the fees low. I can make house visits to let your pet(s) out to do their business, feed them, change litter etc... I have always had a love for animals and know how hard it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. Also to trust a stranger in your home! I take pride in my work and would not disappoint you in the care your pets receive. I would even do light house keeping if needed :-) please consider my services as your pet nanny. I am available locally with short notice or can be available long term. I have no restrictions on the breed or animal, I love them all I do require meeting you and your pet prior to your dates so we are sure I am a good fit.

I do not do overnight but I will drop in up to 3 times a day so they are not feeling left alone. I am a very early riser so can be at your home 5am-8pm hours :-) Thank you! I can swing by during the day on my breaks/lunch hour for 15 mins or more depending on the pet’s needs. I’m up very early so nobody goes off their normal feeding or medicine schedules. My dogs eat and get meds at 5 am every day. If going outside I always leash, or watch closely if fenced yard is available. Fill fresh water every visit , clean up waste if requested

They let me sleep in their bed.LOL I do work a part time variable schedule with many days off. I’m able to come early most days and later in the evening. Also on days off, I could come 3times per day if needed My pets are inside dogs that are crate trained but also when I’m home, my babies get to hang out with family. I work part time. My schedule is such that I work so many days in a row and then I will be off work 3 to 7 days in a row. I provide leashes for walking your dogs outside to keep them safe and when inside my home, they will either be in the family room with me or in a crate
“INCREDIBLE PET SITTER! I've lived in multiple states and she's the best I've had by far. She went above and beyond to take care of my floof! I'm so grateful. Just the best!”
About: I’ve cared for birds, chickens, ducks, and dogs—there’s nothing I can’t handle! I’ve wanted to be a vet since Kindergarten, and pet sitting is the closest I’ve gotten so far. I am a college student so I might be out of your house for 2 hours or so but I’ll always let you know. I’m always available to watch the babies. I make sure to take the dogs out frequently and mostly love on the pups if I can’t cuddle your dog/dogs please don’t book me.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both energetic puppies and aging senior pets, I bring patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I’ve administered medications, handled special dietary needs, and trained basic commands. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment while you’re away, so your pets feel calm, happy, and well-cared for. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring consistent routines and lots of affection. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or managing health needs, I’m here to help your pet thrive. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my day around feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and play sessions. Whether I’m working remotely or running errands, I make sure pets receive consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m flexible and can easily adjust my schedule to meet the specific needs of each pet, including early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins per day. I prioritize safety and comfort above all. In my home or yours, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free from hazards. I follow all care instructions closely—whether it’s administering medication, monitoring food intake, or reinforcing training. I build trust through gentle, consistent interaction, always respecting each pet’s personality and boundaries. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible to reduce stress.
About: I love volunteering at the shelter, helping foster when needed, and I love always having my own two babies to take care of, which is such a joy inside and out! Helping neighbors, friends, and family has always been easy for me! I’m currently working part time, so playing with your pups will be no problem for me! I am available anytime every other week, and available anytime before 5 am and after 5 pm on the other weeks! I also have free weekends as well! I have my own two little guys who I treat like my babies. They sleep with me, walk with me, go with me almost everywhere, and I make sure not only are they taken care of but also my clients. I can do as needed, and provide what my pet parents need and want! I have no hesitation for any pets, I love them all!
About: I have 6 years experience as a veterinary technician and boarding facility. I can administer medications and provide a stress free environment for your babies while you’re gone. I am self employed. I run a horse boarding facility and teach riding lessons. I am usually out of my home for 4 hours Monday to Friday and have a lot of freedom to travel to other places to do home visits. I have a reputable business and care deeply for all animals. I have 2 friendly dogs, and 2 cats. We do not have a fenced yard yet but I can provide home visits to care for your babies!
About: I've had over seven dogs in my lifetime most of which are larger breeds but also had medium and smaller dog breeds. I've also raised puppies under a year old. I genuinely love animals and I need the money as a college student. I'm currently full-time college student but my classes are remote this semester so I have all the time in the world to take care of your dogs. I'm always available unless my scheduling states otherwise. I have no other dogs at the time so it will just be me and your pups unless of course I book with others. Your dog will be taking care of with the utmost safety and joy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arab is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 512 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arab. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
