“Absolutely love Rebecca! She takes such good care of my fur baby, DixieBelle! I’m using her on a regular basis now and Dixie loves it when she comes to play! Definitely would recommend her!”
“My two dogs loved their drop in visits from Kinsley so much! She did great with them and was very good at communicating with me. We would definitely book her again in the future”
“Mak was amazing with our cat, Benji. She was very responsive and communicative from the start, which really helped ease our stress during the holidays. Benji is very shy, but by the end he was getting close to her—a great sign. We’re very happy to have found someone as attentive and responsible as Mak and will definitely reach out to her again. Thank you a lot!!”
About: Hi, I'm Rebecca! I've cared for pets of all kind throughout my life. I live in Ashford, AL and have 2 amazing Golden Retrievers and an 11 year old rabbit. I work throughout the week, but I am almost always available on the weekends to help. My family and I are newer to the Ashford area and I'm new to Rover as well. Since we're home on the weekends, and with my experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, poultry, and other small mammals, I figured that I'd give Rover a try! I'm happy to provide any references. Over the years I've done pet sitting, fostered, and owned pets of my own. I'm here to help you with your pets if you're away for an extended period of time on the weekends. Need to go to a baseball tournament? No worries, I can tend to your pets so that you don't have to rush home. I can either walk your dog, or let them out and play with them (and feed them of course)! I can also help train your puppy using positive reinforcement! Let me know how I can help! I am available on most weekends for drop-ins from 7am - 7pm. Drop-ins will be from 20 - 30 minutes. At least 24 hours are needed for bookings and cancellations. If you do not have a fenced yard, I will require that a leash and harness (or collar) to be available for dogs. If dogs need to be walked, it is assumed that your dog will be familiar with and well-behaved while walking on a leash.
About: I have had dogs my whole life so I have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration , and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I’m also experienced with dogs that need extra patience, attention, or a little time to feel comfortable with someone new. I genuinely love animals and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I grew up with dachshunds but now I have 4 rescue dogs a few over 100lbs! I am a pharmacy tech so you can feel safe knowing that I can follow detailed instructions regarding any meds that need given. I currently work full time as a pharmacy tech so I am able to check in on pets daily around my schedule. Typically mornings before 8, and anytime after 4:30 Monday- Friday. Anytime on weekends Over the years I have checked in on friends and families pets while they are out of town. Typically I will check on them several times through out the day, letting them in and out to use the restroom, making sure they have food and water, and spending a few minutes playing with them so that they aren’t feeling alone the whole time! I do. It keep any pets inside my home do to having several pets of my own.
“She was great always on time and took care of the puppy when we had to book her last min for an emergency last min trip out of town even asked if she needed to feed the fish while she was there Ty”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, with a veterinarian in my family and dogs always being a big part of my home. I’ve had experience caring for dogs through all phases of life, from playful puppies to senior pups, and I truly understand the love, patience, and attention they deserve. I have a soft spot for animals and genuinely love spending time with my four-legged friends! Whether it’s going for walks, playing, giving lots of cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I’m currently in a clinical rotation for my doctorate degree. I work 8-5 with availability to check-in and walk your dogs before and after work with possible times during my lunch hours depending on location! I will always prioritize leash safety for both your dog and nearby pets. Long walks, playtime, and plenty of attention will help keep your pup happy, active, and mentally stimulated! I’ll also make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to their normal schedule and instructions, and receive any approved treats along the way.
“Cassidy took care of our dog while I was away for an evening. I found Cassidy to be flexible, professional, and communicative. Other than Carolina being perfectly cared for, I couldn't tell Cassidy was in my home- meaning everything was done exactly as I would have done it.”
“Madison came by for a meet and greet for our cat but we ended up needing her for the dogs instead. She was great about adjusting to our need. She played with them and they seemed to love loved her. Would use again!”

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 .

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 request a 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.
