5. Amy K.
“Amy is so amazing! She was open and available to fulfill my requests. She will be my "go to" sitter when I can't get friends to watch my pup.”
6. Laderius S.
“Meet La’Derius a year ago when he moved to my neighborhood. I have a yorkie terrier and when I needed him to keep Ace for a week while I went to go visit my father. Ace didn’t want to come back home. He is full of energy same as Ace. His 10year old daughter was also great with Ace. I highly recommend La’Derius. Thank you so much.”
7. Hannah G.
“Hannah is a fabulous pet sitter! She has watched my 6 year old cat, Oliver for at least 4 years and I've had zero complaints from him haha. Honestly though, Oliver was not a people person at ALL but because Hannah was so patient and gave him his space, he came around to her and they've been best buddies since. I'd like to think that she was the gateway to making him into the social butterfly he is now. I travel a good bit to go see family out of state and she's always so eager to take care of Oliver for me. She sends pictures, videos, and vital updates while I'm away and missing my cat. Not only is she a great sitter, but also a wonderful pet parent herself so she doesn't lack any experience with cats and dogs. Her warm personality will allow your pet to feel comfortable with her while you're away. When hiring Hannah, just know your sweet pet friend is in good hands because she adores animals and is just overall a wonderful person.”
8. Alison W.
“Abi loves Alison. Alison is a caring and thoughtful dog walker who you can put your trust in. Communication was great. I would recommend her for any dog walking or dog sitting. You can tell she is a genuine dog lover!”
9. Hannah D.
“Hannah was exceptional! She was incredibly responsive, helpful and took fantastically good care of my dog. I would HIGHLY recommend!”
10. Charlotte T.
“Charlotte has cared for my 3 dogs on several occasions. They absolutely light up when she enters the room! I always notice they are well behaved after she’s been taking care of them. I feel so comfortable and confident leaving the house or even going on vacation when my pups are in Charlottes hands!”
11. Meredith F.
“Meredith helped me have peace of mind today by agreeing to stay with my sick pup while I had to go to work. She kept me up to date with how she was and even went out of her way to pick up medication from the vet, administer meds, and feed my pup. She also took care of my other two dogs' potty and loving needs while there. I'm so thankful!”
12. Wilfredo M.
“Wilfredo (Wil) is one of the most tender, caring people I've ever seen take care of animals. He is careful to always be gentle and not to approach pets quickly or do anything that might scare them. In addition, he is incredibly attentive to ensuring they always receive the care they need - whether that's water refills, food, walks, or play time. The joy he receives from making sure someone's pet is taken care of guarantees he will treat any pet as if they were his own family member. I know my pets are in good hands anytime he takes care of them.”
13. Sydney B.
“Sydney was terrific with my 6mo puppy. It of course can be stressful to find the right person to watch your pet and have access to your home, and working with Sydney has made this completely stress free. She responds promptly, makes sure she asks what both you are expecting and what your dog needs, and sends detailed updates of her time with your pet, as well as lots of pictures! Sydney is my go-to pet sitter/walker. I didn’t know her before I found her on Rover, and I’m so glad that I did! I highly recommend her!”
14. Kaylee B.
“Kaylee was very sweet and accommodating! Otis was well cared for and communication was great!”
15. Gabrielle G.
“Gabrielle was amazing and my dogs were quick fans! I highly recommend her.”
16. Gage C.
“Super great with my dog, kept me updated, loved on him, and went above and beyond! Book with Gage!”
17. Rachel W.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and hands-on experience caring for anxious pets who miss their parents. I understand the importance of providing extra comfort and reassurance to help them feel secure during your time away. I have two cats with medical issues, giving me firsthand experience in administering medication and managing their health. I know how to manage pets with different personalities to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I believe in the importance of interactive play and mental stimulation to keep pets happy and engaged. Animals seem to sense my affection, and I haven’t met one yet that doesn’t adore me! I work in office at UAB Monday Wednesday Thursday (MWR) and typically leave work around 4 pm. On Tuesdays and Friday's I work from home, so my day schedule is significantly more flexible on those days to provide the care that your pets need. I stay in town on the weekends. I will be in town for the holiday season, as my family lives nearby! I do have two cats in my apartment, so I will not be able to board any pets. However I will be able to provide any care that your pets need while you're gone. Whether its walking, playing, outside time, a certain feeding routine, any medications, other medical conditions that need attention, brushing, or bathing if necessary, cleaning up accidents, litterboxes or pee pads, or just general love and affection, I will ensure that your pets are comfortable and taken care in your absence. I am willing to stay the night with them, I will just need to know at least a day in advance. I do well in cases of medical emergencies, and will follow whatever procedures you provide. I can provide senior pet care, as well! Look forward to meeting your sweet babies!
18. Birthe F.
About: I provide personalized care tailored to your pet’s unique needs, whether it’s energetic playtime for puppies, gentle attention for senior dogs, or specialized care for pets with medical or behavioral needs. With a deep understanding of animal behavior and years of experience, I ensure every pet feels loved, safe, and at home—even when you’re away! I’m currently a student-athlete taking few classes this semester, with majority of them being online and flexible. I enjoy taking morning walks, and night time walks. I always come home after practice in the around 11 and have a lot of time during the day. My apartment is very minimalistic and there is enough space our furry friend to play. There’s also different green spaces inside the complex where we can play.
19. Rosalie A.
“Caring, punctual, and pays attention to detail! I’ve known Rosalie for about six years, and she has always performed above and beyond the standard. Hands down the best!”
20. Sam H.
“Sam is the dog guru. His pictures are so cute with my pup. His communication is great. He makes sure everything is taken care of!”
