“We are SO happy with the care Bekah took with our Hammond and the fish. She was always right on time and took the best pictures. Hamm’s hot spot acted up and Bekah treated the spot and it looks fine. Having a reliable, kind and professional pet sitter means the world to us and Bekah is the BEST.”

“Victoria was great! She came by before to meet my pups with me making them more comfortable when she came by to check in on them while I was out of town. She arrived during her scheduled visits and made sure they got some good outside and run around time before leaving.”

About: I am a 30 year old female who loves all animals. I have grown up with animals all my life and have owned many of my own pets. I very much like spending time walking around or just sitting and gaming and cuddling with my pets. I am able to train puppies as i have owned a 3 time grand champion vizsla, though I am no professional I was just taught so i could show my dog. I enjoy spending time in the woods and or in the ocean just being about in the beauty of nature. I hope and pray to be able to meet your little or big angel because that is what a pet is an ANGEL and a beloved family member. please enjoy your day! it is my life. i do this for my job, but i do love all animals so i am more than happy to do this. im very patient and willing to just let them get to know me. i follow things to a tee that way your pet gets the care it needs

“I have a cat with Megaesophagus that requires complicated hour-long feedings. The purpose of this meeting was to go through the process and see if it was something she even wanted to tackle (she did as she likes learning new things and had already looked up information about the condition) Things did not go perfect because I was talking a lot explaining details, there were two people in the room switching out, and Murray is not very sociable to begin with. I believe it will go better if she is by herself. Because of her attitude, patience, and my unsociable cats didn't run and actually interacted with her immediately, I will trust her to do a feeding in the future (and that is not a decision I take lightly.)”

About: Enthusiastic dog and cat lover. Exotic pets welcome! Perfectly capable of handling any cleanup necessary. No experience with "extremely" disabled pets but I'd love to gain some! I don't smoke, I have reliable transportation, and I'm a fervent cruelty free advocate! I have 6 pets of my own, 2 dogs & 4 cats. Milo orange male, George orange male, Cashew orange male, Prim tabby female. Olive black lab, Sabrina chocolate lab. I'm able and eager to care for big & small animals of all breeds. I'd love to work with hamsters, mice, gerbils, rats, etc. I had rats from 2021-2023. I'm not afraid of "bully" breeds, truly I adore them. If you have any questions feel free to message me! I'm unemployed at the moment (8/6/26) so I've endless time for pet play and care! I somewhat frequently have to administer medication to my older pets for various reasons. If your pet needs that I can provide with proper teaching from you, just to make sure I don't make a mistake. I cannot currently care for your pets at my home, not with 6 of my own. However I can play with, exercise with, feed, water, walk, and give lots of love to your fur baby.

About: Since I was a child, I've been raising and taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I've nursed plenty of bottle babies- kittens, puppies and even rodents and farm animals. I've worked at the Chattanooga Zoo and volunteered at shelters across the country, so there's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't seen before! I currently work full-time 5 days a week, 8-10 hour shifts, so I have to schedule around that. The rest of my day will be dedicated to your pet(s)! I love matching a pet's energy and I'm happy hanging out on the couch or running circles in the yard- whatever the situation calls for!

About: I have always had pets growing up and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from owning my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. My husband works nights and I work days so there is always someone home to make sure your fur baby is taken care of and loved on! Our residence features ample space in the garage, and a spacious fenced-in backyard. As pet owners ourselves, with two golden doodles and a cat, we understand the stress associated with leaving them behind. Consequently, we would provide a nurturing environment, treating boarded pets like our own, with generous playtime outside of their kennels and the attention and affection they are accustomed to receiving at home. ❤️

About: Follow us on Facebook at Doggone Good Pet Services located in Decatur, AL! You can book there as well. I’ve owned and cared for many fur babies in all shapes, sizes, breeds and I’ve enjoyed taking care of animals all of my life. My husband has always told me if I could have an animal sanctuary I would take in every single animal I came across. I worked as a veterinarian assistant before I became a full time stay at home mom. Since I am home all day so I will have plenty of time on my hands to give love to your babies. I am away from home each week day from 1:30 until 2:15 to pick kids up from school . Each and every fur baby will always be treated like family I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to play and roam. Anytime I would have to leave the house, I always make sure all dogs are separated and /or in kennels to ensure nothing happens while I’m gone. No need to bring toys, blankets, crates, beds, bowls, etc, I have all on site and make sure they’re cleaned and sanitized every day.

About: Hello, nice to have you on my page! My name is Aingeal. I work a job bathing dogs in Madison and im looking for some extra money since I just bought my first house! I have lots of experience in the pet care world from being a lead care attendant at a doggy daycare in Flordia to grooming and bathing dogs in Madison. I can provide top notch care by loving your pups the way I love mine. I have knowledge of giving basic medications like trazadone and apoquel. I even am comfortable with the more complicated ones like admission of insulin and taking care of hot spots. Feeling instructions are never complicated to me when I fed more than 30 dogs a day each needing a different special touch weather that be a smidgen of water, a scoop of pumpkin, a homemade mix of rice and meats, or all of the above. From young pups to the senior ones which both need diapers I am up for anything. Thank you for considering me for your pets needs. Bark at you later! I currently work full time but its slow season at my job so I am avalible most days after 1pm! Preferably no weekends and a day or two notice to help me schedule. I would treat your pup just like you do, following the same routines as you like taking them out and feeding them at a certain time. Playtime is always a must and if im watching them at my home I have a big backyard and a friendly old pup who loves having company.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Basham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 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.
