About: Over 10 years of experience has taught me the ins and outs of keeping your furry friend happy and healthy. I can ensure a stress-free experience for both you and your pet! My pets are a cherished part of my daily and weekly routine! Each morning starts with a walk or playtime session, keeping them happy and energized. Throughout the day, I sprinkle in quick check-ins to ensure they have fresh water, a clean litter box (if applicable), and maybe even a quick cuddle session. Evenings often involve another walk or playtime, followed by feeding and quality bonding time. Weekends can be filled with longer adventures like hikes or trips to the dog park. Your pet's comfort is my top priority! When caring for your furry friend in their own home, I seamlessly integrate into their daily routine. Mornings begin with fresh food, water refills, and a walk or playtime session to keep them energized. Throughout the day, I provide potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles (of course!), ensuring they feel loved and secure. Evenings involve another walk or playtime, followed by feeding and quality bonding time. This consistent schedule minimizes stress for your pet while you're away.

“I can’t thank Sara enough for taking such wonderful care of my Yuki while I was on a 7-day trip to Europe. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and safe. When I came home, my Yuki was relaxed and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter—I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies who need structure and training to senior pets who deserve gentle, attentive care. I’m comfortable with administering basic medications, maintaining consistent routines, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. Pet care is a regular and important part of my daily routine, not something I squeeze in last minute. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they get consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, and playtime. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I make sure each pet gets the time and care they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I stay organized and committed so your pet’s routine stays as normal and stress-free as possible. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent in a familiar environment. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, litter box or yard clean-up, and any special care needs like medications. I also respect your home by keeping things tidy and secure, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have cared for animals of all kinds, dogs, cats, horses, cows, you name it, since I was little on my grandparent’s farm. I can get along with them all, from high energy to couch nappers. Going on walks or runs is something I do often with my pit mix, so I welcome that as well! I am currently a senior at Troy and interning at a school. I am free on weekdays after school hours and some weekends. On weekends I am not in Troy, I will be around the Dothan area. With an extensive pet care background, I am big on doing whatever your pet feels comfortable with. I know personalities can vary, so I try to accommodate how I interact with them based on that.

About: I am a cat person through and through. I have 4 cats of my own - 2 British shorthairs and 2 rescues. I make sure to give them as much stimulation and play as possible and I’ll treat your cats as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to find sitters who prioritize cats, and too often kitty care is an afterthought. But not for me! I’ll give your babies the attention and playtime they deserve. Though I am most passionate about cats, I will make sure all the animals in your home are fully taken care of and happy while you’re away. I have experience administering medication, caring for kittens and senior cats, as well as dogs, fish, reptiles, and birds. I work as a freelance media buyer and have full control of my remote schedule. My husband and I used to travel a lot for work, and I really struggled to find quality care for my own 4 cats when we went away. As someone who has dealt firsthand with some not-so-great cat sitters, I really know what it takes to give pet owners peace of mind while away from home. My schedule is completely moldable to your needs. If caring for pets in your home is not an option, I have a spare bedroom with a window and a cat tree, window perch and toys that I have reserved for fostering cats. While I prefer to care for animals in your own home, I will happily take them in if it would be beneficial for your situation.

About: Hi! I’m from the southern states and love beach walks and keeping active! I’d love to walk your pup! I have puppies of my own back home and could use some pup snuggles/walks! I have plenty of time to work around your schedule! I’d love to pick up some walks daily. I love closing my Apple Watch rings😁 so daily walks are a must for me. Even better with a doggy! I don’t prefer to do over nights or in my home since I don’t have the friendliest environment for a dog. However, I would love taking them on walks.

About: Former veterinary technician and practice manager of 10 years, I have obtained a large amount of experience with multiple species and needs of animals. I’ve spent a lot of time pet sitting, working with rescues / fosters, and giving my own furry crew love & care. My husband and I relocated with the USCG down to Mobile in 2023 and since then I’ve been spending my free time working at HopHounds dog park downtown, as well as, volunteering with a few local rescues. With my experience and overwhelming big heart for animals, I promise to ensure that your pet feels right at home and gets the love and attention they deserve while you're away. My husband and I have recently relocated back Typically, I work only a few days per week with the ability to take time off when needed for fur baby care! I can fit house sitting, boarding, and drop in's into my daily routine easily to ensure that the times you feel your pet needs care the most, happen on schedule. I'm available most weekends and holidays, as well as, early mornings and late evening care. My booking settings do advise a 3 day notice-but please feel free to reach out with anything last minute and I will do my best to help! I offer pet transportation and grooming in addition to boarding/drop in services. This includes but is not limited to nail trims, bathing, and basic hair/fur trimming, Please let me know any questions you have regarding either. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood with lots of areas to walk and play, as well as, having a home with a large fenced in backyard, screened porch with fans, and toys galore! My husband and I have three, very social, doggos who love visitors. However, if your pet feels anxious around others, I do have 4 bedrooms available to provide them their own space and security. I am always happy to provide a meet & greet beforehand. If you're interested in boarding services and would also like to schedule a meet & greet with my fur kids-please let me know! Boarding can be stressful for pets-especially meeting new friends. I'm happy to help make that process easier in any way I can.

About: From puppies to senior adult dogs, I have experience in it all. I work in the medical field myself (on humans) but have had plenty of opportunities over the years to be exposed to different breeds and what works best for them. I’m looking forward to getting to know your dog’s personality and what care best suits them! When I was about ten years old, my family adopted our first dog. I had had it written on my mirror for MONTHS - “I want a beagle.” The timing was perfect that one just happen to wander into our lives (he was about a year old at that time)! I spent my childhood caring for my dog, taking him on daily walks. Flash forward a few years to the end of his life, he unfortunately went blind and was diagnosed with diabetes. I helped care for him by giving him his insulin shots and making it as easy as possible to navigate the house. I was very involved in his care during his senior years and have always had a soft spot for elderly dogs. When I was in college, I decided to take on a dog of my own and got a puppy for the first time. My dog, Wilson, was seven weeks old when I got him - he is now almost eight so I guess I did something right 🤪 I work as a registered nurse, so I work three days a week and have the other four days a week to play with your pups! If you have any questions regarding my availability, please reach out to me! I will follow all house rules and rules regarding your pets. Having used Rover for my own dog, I know how important it is to know and trust the sitter that you are allowing into your home to watch your sweet babies. I hope that we can establish a relationship where I can be that for you!

“Caitlin is AWESOME! We have 2 large dogs that can be a lot to handle but she made us feel very comfortable that our dogs and our home would be well looked after. She is polite, thoughtful, and did everything we needed-plus some. Our dogs are usually exhausted and anxious when they come home from a boarding facility, but this time, they were just happy to see us and seemed like their normal selves! We will be booking her again very soon.”

About: I’ve raised multiple dogs and can’t get enough of them! I have two well-behaved dogs of my own that are 8 and 1 years old and very friendly with other dogs! I truly love treating all pets as my own! I have also grown up with cats which I love but don’t personally own at the moment! All pets are welcome and will be constantly loved on! I am currently a stay-at-home mom with extra time on my hands! My day-to-day is typically staying home and playing with my current 2 dogs as well as my 3 year old daughter. I have a fenced in yard and two well-behaved Labrador’s. One of them is 8 and one is 1 so I can accommodate for whatever age your pet is! My youngest is still crate trained so I am also familiar with crate training dogs if that’s needed.

About: I’ve always had a special soft spot for pit breeds and short-haired dogs, but I truly love and appreciate every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I enjoy learning each animal’s unique personality and providing personalized care, patience, attention, and plenty of love.

I enjoy feeding, walking, playing, and giving pets plenty of love while respecting their unique schedules and personalities given any special requirements they may have. I follow your pet’s routine, providing food, walks, playtime, safety, and love while respecting your home and treating your fur baby as my own.

FAQs for House Sitting - Battles Wharf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 357 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Battles Wharf. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Battles Wharf walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Battles Wharf maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Battles Wharf choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Battles Wharf. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
