About: I love working with animals and have had a dog for 12 years. I currently have a small pomeranian named Rambo! My children love to play with all animals as well. I I am a stay at home mom and work part time from home in the afternoon. I am available for round the clock care for your pets! I have a fended yard and a small Pom who would love to keep your pet company. I also have a finished basement to give your pet their own space if they need it as well!
About: I have over nine years of experience caring for dogs, including one year as a boarder. Growing up, I fostered dogs and cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, but since I can’t have one where I live, getting to walk and care for them every day brings me so much joy! Whether your pup needs extra playtime, careful attention, or a dependable walker, I’m here to help. As an online student at UAB, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks and pet care throughout any day of the week. I’m usually up by 6 AM, so I’m available for early morning walks if needed. However, I prefer not to do nighttime walks for safety reasons. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or an afternoon play session, I’m happy to be there! I provide pet care in clients’ homes, following all given instructions to ensure consistency and comfort for your dog. Whether it’s walking, exercise, feeding schedules, or crate time, I follow routines closely to keep pets happy and stress-free. I prioritize safety, trust, and personalized care to make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away.

About: I treat all animals with care and respect. I love dogs of all ages and sizes. Your animals are important parts of your life and your family and I will treat them as such. I have had pets in my family since I was a child and could not imagine a life without my furry friends. Both of my children enjoyed successful pet care businesses under my supervision for the last 15 years. Now that my children are grown I am looking forward into getting back to pet sitting and loving on other people dogs. I have 2 large dogs that reside with me now and being self employed makes it easy to care for them. "remember the best therapy has four legs and fur" I am usually very flexible. I try my hardest when scheduling conflicts occur to make it work for whats best for client & pet. Understanding there are times where I am not available when clients request but to keep me in mind for future visits. I respect all homeowners property and the care & love of their pet while they are in my care. I will treat your pet as if they were my own.
About: I have always loved animals- any and all types. I have owned dogs and cats as pets my entire life. I’m an honest and loyal person. I will provide the greatest care for your furbabies and make sure they are loved as my own. I volunteered with local humane societies and I also worked as an animal cruelty investigator for years. Animals live shorter lives than us humans so we have to make sure everyday is great. I have fostered numerous dogs and puppies that I found in abusive situations so providing a little extra care is no biggie to me. I would be happy to drop in and check on your animals, take them for walks or board them at my house. I have a ten year old child that knows how to treat animals. Your animal would be in great hands with us. Thanks for reading my profile. Hope to hear from you soon. My schedule is super flexible so just let me know what your needs are and I can help. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby. I have a fenced yard and one sweet pup that stays inside that can keep your animal company. I can’t wait for them to meet!
About: I have two boys and we love dogs like family. We don't currently have own our dogs since our last two have passed. We would be honored to love yours like our own! I work from home so I can easily work from your home if necessary. I also have the freedom for necessary potty breaks and walks. I would prefer to keep pets in their own home when possible because I think that is normally where they feel most comfortable and less anxious.
About: Hi, I'm Jess! I spent the last 10 years working as a professional dog groomer, and I just moved to Alabama from Utah. At home I've got two dogs of my own, a big lovable mutt and a tiny chihuahua, so I know exactly what it feels like to hand your dog over to someone else and just hope they'll be gentle and patient with them. Over the years I built a lot of my clients through word of mouth, because pet parents trusted me with their most precious dogs and kept coming back. I've worked a lot with older dogs who need extra care, anxious dogs who need a calm and steady hand, and puppies who are still figuring things out. That kind of experience taught me how to read a dog, slow down when they need it, and make sure they actually feel safe with me, not just tolerate the visit. I know how much your dog means to you. They're not just an animal you take care of, they're part of your family, and trusting someone else with them is a big deal. I want to be that person for you, someone you know will treat your dog with the same love and care you would. I work flexibly from home, which means I'm around most of the day and able to give your dog plenty of attention while you're away. I'm not squeezing visits in between other jobs or rushing through a walk, your dog gets real time and real companionship. Whether it's playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company throughout the day, I have the flexibility to make sure they feel comfortable and loved the whole time you're gone. I will be home 99% of the time. I have a large backyard and 2 fur babies of my own to keep yours company. We have crates, water available 24/7, and separate feeding rooms if needed.
About: Each animal has a soul that deserve caring love. They deserve high quality care and attention. I communicate frequently through text and emails. I am a semi-retired social worker. I would love to devote more of my time and attention to animals. In my personal experience I have helped care for kittens, cats and dogs. I will be happy to send photos while caring for your pets! I am currently semi-retired. I have some free time to come care for your fur babies! I am in Calera and am willing to cover surrounding areas. I can drive to your place and care for your animals as needed. I am an avid communicator through text/email. I will be happy to send pictures of your pets during my time with them.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I was #1 dog sitter for about 5-6 neighbors through high school and college. I’ve taken care of many other dogs and cats as well. As a current medical student, I wish I could have my own dog but the time and finances won’t allow until I graduate. So for now, I can help take care of your pets and you can help me get my snuggle fix in! As a medical student, my schedule is often changing. I do have most evenings and weekends free for studying and I could always use a study partner or walk break! School is priority - but I will do my best to work with your schedule as well as my class schedule! I do currently live in an apartment, so boarding pets in my home is not a great option. I’ve stayed at very many homes to care for pets. Your pets health and safety will be my main concern - and I will always respect your home as well!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kiddo! Dogs and cats. I had my maltipoo, Georgie, for 18 years. I had my cowboy corgi, Squeaks, for 4 years and just recently lost him due to cancer. He is missed very much. My work schedule is very flexible. I work from home and usually within an hour of Birmingham. Rarely travel out of town. I make my own schedule. My latest pup, Squeaks, had cancer. He was on a holistic journey from July to Thanksgiving. He was on all natural supplements and I also cooked his food fresh every week. Ground turkey, sweet potatoes and veggies. Unfortunately, his Tumor had progressed and I had to make the best decision for him a few weeks ago.

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 your Chelsea. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.
