About: Hello Alabama! The holidays are almost upon us! Please check the calendar for availability. It is always good to get the holidays set up way in advance as a good pet sitter is hard to find at that time of year. Please feel free to reach out and check with me for anything you are not sure of. I am able to do days, weeks or months at a time. I provide in home pet care. I have a day job working from home. My day job does allow me to come to you and your pet in your home so that your fur babies can be less stressed by their humans absence. I like to keep the babies normal routine as close to perfect as possible. I have cared for so many wonderful pets through the years. I am looking forward to continuing this wonderful, life changing service with you and your babies. I have had many steady repeat pets as well. I can provide letters of reference also if needed. Please review my calendar as I do have availability moving forward. My time with your pet will of course depend on your needs. I am really looking forward to helping with your pet sitting needs. Please just reach out and ask about the availability. I do try to keep up on my calendar but sometimes it can be a bit off. Again just reach out and double check directly with me. I am a real people person, I am a friendly and a kind human being. I am responsible, prompt, and very reliable. Pets love me & I love them. Please reach out and let’s see how I might be able to help. I have raised dogs all my life with my first pup showing up at the age of 8. I work remotely so my time is quite flexible. I have also done some dog training along with showing dogs for a short time frame. I simply love dogs, cats & horses. I am a responsible pet owner who always treated her own pet like a child & part of the family. Your pet would get that same love and attention. Playtime, good walks, some laughs and lots of belly rubs & trust go along way. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me I will get back quickly. I am located in the Owens Cross Roads area currently, and my rates are very reasonable for in-home, loving, positive pet care Thank you I am looking forward to helping you care for your pet in your home or to just drop by to help if you simply can’t get out to walk /play with your pet. I’m here for you looking forward to the opportunity. Since my pup has crossed over the rainbow bridge I would have no problem coming to you to help you with your pet. I look forward to hearing from you and blessings to you all.
“Taylor is great. She says hello to Marshmallow and loves on him every time she comes over to walk him. Marshmallow gets excited when he sees her and he only gets excited for food.”

About: I’m an animal person through and through. I’ve been around dogs since I was a little boy at the age of 5. I’ve taken care of family, neighbor, and even stray pets/animals and take pride in my ability to get on the good side of any creature. Firm believer that there is no such thing in a bad dog, only misunderstood ones. I have one dog (the handsome black lab), but sometimes have my mother in law’s two dogs over. They’re all well behaved and sociable. I work from home and typically have a lot of spare time in my day to take care of pets. I make sure to take my dog to the park everyday and see to it that he gets proper exercise and will be sure to make sure your dogs get the same. I don’t go anywhere most weekends so I’m available for boarding and anything else more or less all the time. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a big yard and sunroom so plenty of space for play. I have several parks located within ten minutes of me and walking trails nearby too so your pup will never be bored.
About: Hi! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover with 6+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats! I started my career in animal care as a veterinary receptionist, eventually working my way into kennel care and hands-on animal handling. I wanted to take my experience even further, so I went back to school and graduated as an Approved Veterinary Assistant in January 2025. I’m also a Certified Professional Groom Technician, giving me experience with everything from everyday pet care to grooming and handling. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels — from tiny couch potatoes to giant breeds and everything in between. Shy, nervous, or rescue dogs are absolutely no problem for me! I’m patient and comfortable letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. High-energy pups, timid dogs, counter surfers, goofy troublemakers… I’ve probably met one like them! 😂 I’ve also cared for plenty of cats, including the sweet ones and the spicy kitties who prefer to keep their humans on their toes. 😹 I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take their safety, comfort, and routine seriously. I genuinely love what I do and feel incredibly lucky that caring for animals is something I get to do for a living. When your pets are with me, they’ll get plenty of attention, patience, love, and care — and probably a few extra treats and belly rubs along the way. 💕🐾 Pet care is a big part of my life, and I’m fortunate to have a very flexible schedule! I’m generally available throughout the week and am happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and needs. Whether you need regular visits, occasional care, or help while you’re out of town, I’m happy to be there for your pets. 🐾 I love being able to make pet care part of my everyday routine, and I’m always excited to meet a new furry friend! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first! 🐾 With 6+ years of hands-on animal-care experience, including veterinary medicine, boarding, daycare, grooming, and pet sitting, I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, medications or special instructions, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with the same care I would my own. I also make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure so pets stay safe while I’m there. I know that some pets are nervous around new people, so I never force interaction. I’m patient and allow them to warm up to me at their own pace. I pay close attention to their behavior and will communicate with you if I notice anything unusual or concerning. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away — and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 💕🐶🐱
About: I am comfortable dealing with all sizes and personalities of dogs and cats. I've always had pets throughout my life from Newfoundlands to kittens. Im currently working part time to pay for my expenses. More than enough time to keep the fur babies very happy. I prefer mornings but can be flexible. Babysitting the doggo is no issue for me.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. With over 25 years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies learning their manners to senior pets who need a little extra love and patience.

I’m home full-time with plenty of flexibility and reliable transportation, making it easy to provide dependable care whenever it’s needed. I genuinely enjoy helping both people and pets, and I love taking breaks for belly rubs, walks, and plenty of snuggles. I have a spacious fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, along with a friendly dog companion for those who enjoy company (or quiet time if they prefer being on their own). I can also crate pets if needed. My priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while having a fun, positive experience.

About: All my life I've lived with and cared for a variety of pets and animals from the country to downtown apartments, including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, ferrets, rodents, and fish.

Sometimes I will have 5 days off in a row and have nothing going on. My schedule is random and if I am not able to sit a certain day I will let you know. Depending on what your preferenced are, I can come to your place and let the dogs out or give your cat water and food, but if youd rather bring them to me, I can sit for your babies at my place, my boyfriend, roommate, cat, roommates dog and I live in a spacious house with an open yard outside, I will be able to walk your dog as often as needed, every hour if you have a puppy. I have dog and cat food. If you need a cat sitter I have a litter box and scratch posts as well that are ready to go. <3

I’m currently a stay at home mom to 2 kids so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I’ll be home with your pets the majority of the day when they stay with us.

About: I’ve had many types of dogs since 11 years old of all ages, from babies to senior ages. I care for all dogs. No exceptions :) I work part time during the morning. I enjoy reading, cooking and learning new recipes. Daily house chores to keep and maintain fur babes is a must in my household. As of right now, I don’t have any pets that belong to me. There is a cat in the home that stays with my roommate, mainly in her room. Daily house chores to keep and maintain fur babes is a must in my household.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was in high school, now going into year 7 of pet sitting. My unwavering dedication to personalized care for each pet is what I always focus on. I understand that each pet is unique, with its own needs and quirks, and I try and go the extra mile to tailor my services to meet those individual requirements I currently work in person 3 days out the week (MWF) as a college professor at AAMU but I make sure you pet’s needs are my first priority. From waking up early to give them attention & exercise, sharing my lunch break with your furry friend to take a walk and have a bathroom break, to helping me take breaks during my work hours for us to both stretch and go for a walk. Having constant communication with the owner & providing regular updates through messages, photos, or videos. Being prepared for any emergency by having a plan and knowing I need to bring your furry friend if an emergency may happen. Lastly, ensuring the safety within the home by removing anything that may be hazardous and keeping your furry friend in their designated area when needed to avoid any mishaps.
About: I’m 31 years old, a single mom, and the owner of Daisy’s Creative Cuts & Colors LLC, as well as a REALTOR and photography business owner. I have a genuine love for animals, and because I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to be with them almost all of the time. I can groom the dogs in my care so they go home fresh and clean, and I also work on light training while they’re with me. This is my career, and I take great pride in the work I do. I’m willing to care for dogs that others may turn away, because I truly believe dogs are incredibly intelligent and intuitive animals. I see dogs and cats as very special, and I treat every fur baby as if they were my own. If you choose me to care for your pet, you won’t regret it. I also love meeting my dogs’ families, I’ve met some amazing people and formed long-term friendships through this journey. I spend plenty of time with my animals I keep since I work from home a lot. I update you on how they are through the day as well. I have a fenced in yard. We will be outside most of the time. We go for walks and to the park. I also send pictures everyday so you can feel closer to your fur babies.
About: I have changed my name since I started this profile several years ago, that is why my reviews say Emily and not my current name, Diem! I grew up in pet stores, as my mom worked in one from the time I was 4. I have had a love for animals as far back as I can remember and have had dogs my entire life. I have managed a grooming salon in the Huntsville/New Market area and have experience working as a receptionist at an animal clinic/hospital, a bather and front desk at a dog groomer and my younger sister is a Vet Tech who works at a city shelter so I have a lot of knowledge because of her, also! I have an adult Border Collie and 5 cats. I couldn’t see my life without the love from animals, and I look forward to getting to add your pets into my bundle of love!!! I am currently working a flexible schedule as a substitute teacher, so I’ve got a lot of time to spend with your fur children! I prefer not to bring your animals to my own home, for safety, because we have several cats but I will happily do in home visits.
“Amy is almost always available and flexible with me even if I book her services last minute. I work 12 hour shifts and sometimes they're overnight shifts so it's nice to have someone to check on my dog and get her out of the house for a bit. My dog just adores her and I sure do appreciate her! ”

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 Five paws up for Bethany! Hi, I’m Gracie, and I have something very important to report: Bethany is one of my absolute favorite humans! And as a Labrador, I take loving people very seriously. 🐶❤️ Bethany doesn’t just take me for walks… she makes me feel loved, safe, and like the most special girl in the world. She’s so attentive to my needs, pays close attention to how I’m doing, and makes sure our adventures are comfortable, happy, and full of fun. There are wonderful things to sniff and important dog business to investigate, and Bethany makes every walk something to wag about! My mom especially loves how protective Bethany is of me. I’m her precious girl, and knowing Bethany looks out for me with so much care means everything to her. You can tell Bethany truly loves me by the way she treats me…. and trust me, we dogs know when someone’s love is real. If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog, pay attention to the little things, and take their safety to heart, my Bethany is your person. Five paws up, a whole-body wiggle, and my biggest Labrador stamp of approval! Love and happy tail wags, Gracie 🐾🤎

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Big Cove is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $32 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 580 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Big Cove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Big Cove. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Big Cove after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Big Cove. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
