“We cannot recommend Ms. Alyssa enough. Whether it is for training or caring/walking, her compassion, patience and knowledge is unmatched. She really takes the time to not only teach/correct the pup, she also educates us as pet parents. Thank you for loving and caring for Jade! Looking forward to booking more sessions and walks.”

About: I worked at a vet for two years and have had experience with boarding pets there, I’ve pet sat for many friends and family in their homes, and I worked with dogs on a daily basis at my former job as a dog bather. I have three dogs and a cat of my own and have many years of experience with cats since we owned several kitties back home. I’ve worked with dogs of all age, breed, and size so I am familiar with many different situations and quirks of the different breeds. My schedule is flexible! While I work full-time Monday through Friday, I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend care, and I can often adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Feel free to reach out, I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! I will spend as much time as needed with your fur babies and will make sure all of your requests and expectations are met! I am trustworthy and understand that your pets are part of your family so they will be taken care of like they were my own. I will make sure your pets have an enjoyable time while their parents are away!

“Stephen did a great job with our Shetland sheepdog. He played and walked and got her to trust him. He went with what she wanted and she was very happy. Could not ask for a better dog sitter.”

About: I’ve been walking dogs and dog sitting for family and friends since I was 10. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have experience in the clinic. I have been held responsible for walking, feeding, watering, and grooming pets in the past. I am currently working in the er 2-3 days a week. I work 12 hour shifts and will put unavailable unless the client approves me checking in before and after work. I am a college student but my classes are online so I am easily flexible and can complete my school anytime and anywhere. When pet sitting I like to stick to a routine the dog is familiar with as it is already stressful for them when their family is gone. I will play with them and take them on walks if that is something your dog enjoys.

About: I joined Rover full-time in 2023. Prior to Rover I had been pet sitting for friends and family occasionally for at least 5 years. I absolutely love taking care of all kinds of animals. Cats, dogs, bearded dragons, bunnies, frogs, anything really. I have experience taking care of senior and disabled cats and dogs. I have also taken care of many dogs that are considered reactive. I don’t have experience with very young puppies but I have taken care of a few older puppies. Since this is my full-time job, I am willing to accept requests whenever I’m available. I do require meet and greets prior to accepting new clients. For all services, I will be sure to follow whatever instructions are provided to me. I do ask that you please give me clear instructions so I can work to the best of my ability. For dog walks, please provide me with a map of the route you usually take.

About: Being a past owner of a beautiful border collie mix (the pup in my profile) my skills for high energy dogs and keeping up with their schedules became a necessary skill. I love animals in general, but dogs have captivated my heart. I do well with timid, aggressive, and let's be honest stubborn dogs. I love being outside and walking around town with an adorable dog on my side. This is so I can get some puppy love back in my life and help you with spoiling and exercising your fur baby when your schedules get a little busy. I'm looking to get more experience caring for others' animals to maybe someday extend just a service into an actual business. I want your animal to be treated on the same level as you would be treated checking and staying at a hotel. I know how important an animal is to a house hold, and how as much as we would love to stay and play all day life calls. Let me keep your mind at ease when it comes to your 4 legged family member. I am a Stay at Home Mom. I am up before the sun and find myself finding places to walk with my little one. Somedays we go adventuring with our German Shepard or just enjoy playing with him in our backyard. Weekends we spend in town with our family. Not many days where we are not too far from Madison or Huntsville. I have two cats and a German Shepard so coming to your pets' comfort place is the best means of me taking care of your animals.

About: I have 15+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and personalities. As a former AKC conformation and lure coursing competitor, I’m confident handling everything from playful puppies to shy or reactive pets. I share my home with four cats, including rescues, so I understand animals with unique needs. I offer calm, patient, and reliable care—no breed or size restrictions, just a focus on safety, trust, and comfort. Most pets, if asked, would prefer to stay home rather than go to a boarding kennel while you are gone. They are in their own home, eating their familiar food from their regular bowl, playing in their own yard, sleeping on their favorite bed or couch. My goal as a pet sitter is to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe so you can enjoy your time away from home. I visit your home at least twice a day, feeding, checking water bowls, petting and loving, supervising exercise and play time, and handing out treats. I am especially good with senior dogs and have experience getting even difficult dogs to take medications. I also do things like collect mail or newspapers and turn lights on and off so that it looks like someone is around. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time and attend classes two nights a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime visits, walks, and overnight care. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Caring for animals is one of the best parts of my week—it’s grounding, rewarding, and something I truly enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routines. In your home, I follow your feeding, walking, and playtime schedules closely and keep things calm for shy or anxious pets. In my home, animals have a quiet, supervised space, enrichment toys, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s medication, training, or extra snuggles, I tailor care to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: I’m extremely passionate about animals and animal care! I’m the designated animal lover and pet sitter for all my friends and family! I love each unique personality I meet! I’m currently working part time as a waitress as well as in college but my free days are completely for your animals! There’s nothing I’d rather do on off days than meet your fur babies! I always pride myself in keeping a clean and safe environment for all my animals. I have experience with snakes, lizards, birds, hamsters, cats, dogs, fish, rabbits.. pretty much any animal you can name!

About: Since I was vey young I always had a special bone in my body for animals especially dogs. They're the joy in our hearts and the light of our lives. I live my life by the motto: I want to be the person my dog believes I am. I am sweet, loving, stern, and giving to my furry friends. I enjoy the presence of dogs & cats but I cannot have cats in my home due to an allergy in the family. I love to cuddle them and reward them for their good behavior. Feeding time is the happiest time for us! Walks are so comforting and much appreciated, I am fit and love going on walks. Thanks So much Jessi. Animal lover 💕 Open Availability for cuddles. I love spending time with dogs and cats. I miss my furbaby so much recently lost her to cancer and this has been helping me so much. I have a fenced back yard and cool AC indoor home. I love snuggling with pups and taking them out as needed. I am even able to make them homemade meals if necessary :)

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from the craziest and goofiest to the more relaxed and calm! Experience in pets with special needs, senior pets, and “aggressive” breeds. I truly enjoy spending my time with animals and I would love to be there for them! I work full-time remotely so I’m not away all day. My schedule is flexible and being there for your pets will always be my top priority. I can walk, run, and play with your pet! All animals get lots of love! I can follow strict instructions for pet care including household rules.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. Indoor or outdoor, I know each animal has a different personality, and I am very patient and understanding when it comes to pets. I’m definitely an animal lover and would love to take care of your pet and provide a positive and enriching experience. Please consider me! ❤️ My primary job is Airbnb management, which is done from mostly my phone, so I have plenty of room to operate off of your time/schedule. I have a fenced in back yard (great for dogs) and a screened in sunroom (cats love it) and am very respectful when it comes to other peoples property.

About: Hi there! I'm Jennifer and I've spent years caring and loving animals. I absolutely love them to pieces! I've fostered dogs through a local organizations also. Including mothers and litters. Your furbaby will be very well taken care of and loved every second they are in my care. I took a break for a bit while moving and readjusting but I miss getting to meet all the amazing animals! I am available full time again! I live in Madison but am willing to travel a reasonable distance. I would consider it an honor and privilege to get to know you and your pup or kitty or any other animals more ❤️I love them ALL!! I’m available full time now and I am so excited to get back to pet sitting full time again and meet all the animals I can I can no longer do in my home since I’m in an apartment now but hopefully soon I’ll be able to start doing it again

About: One thing that sets me apart is my firsthand experience caring for a reactive dog of my own. That experience taught me how important patience, consistency, body language awareness, and calm handling are when working with dogs who may be anxious, overstimulated, fearful, or slow to trust new people. Because of that, I’m very mindful of creating a safe, low-stress environment where pets can feel comfortable at their own pace. I’m experienced with maintaining routines, managing different energy levels, and recognizing behavioral cues before situations become stressful. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and pets who need extra patience or structure. I also know how important communication is to pet parents, so I provide reliable updates, photos, and detailed check-ins for peace of mind while you’re away. Because I run my own special education advocacy business, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable and attentive pet care throughout the week. My work gives me the ability to accommodate a variety of schedules, including daytime visits, overnight stays, weekends, and many holiday needs. I’m able to plan my schedule carefully so pets receive consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship rather than rushed drop-ins. Flexibility also means I can better adapt to pets with specific routines, medication schedules, anxiety needs, or extra potty breaks. I care for pets by focusing on keeping their routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and affection based on their individual personality and needs. I understand that many pets feel safest in their familiar environment, so I try to maintain the routines they’re used to while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and energy levels so I can adapt care appropriately, whether a pet needs active play, mental stimulation, quiet companionship, or extra patience. My experience owning a reactive dog has made me especially mindful about creating calm interactions and respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries.
