About: I’ve always been around animals and grew up caring for multiple dogs. I currently have cats of my own and have experience caring for a variety of exotic animals as well. I have previously worked in animal husbandry, which has given me hands on experience with animal care, feeding, cleaning, monitoring and understanding different animals’ individual needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I am currently a Researcher at the University of South Alabama, but I have a a flexible schedule and plenty of free time on the weekends. I am happy to adhere to any requirements you have regarding your pets. I can easily crate, walk, and play with dogs and well as care for cats and exotic animals.

About: I’m open to caring for your animal, the way you do at your home. I have experience with caring for older dogs with complex medical conditions, food aggression, medication administration, and slow feeders. I have experience walking dogs requiring different training tools. I have experience in puppy training and potty training as my family and myself have fostered puppies from 7weeks to a year old. I'm a Senior in college and spend dedicated time focusing on academics… so what better way to spend the rest of my time playing and caring for animals! I work with my internship from 8-5, so my nights are free and I’d love to be cuddled up with your fur babies. I am attentive to your animal's specific needs. I have knowledge with making sure property is secure, choking hazards, medication administration, and some training tools. I am open to your requests.
About: I love working with animals because I love to help them and I understand their behaviors and mannerisms. I am a passionate person and I am all about the animals. I'm looking for a job that allows me to do what I love, pet, love, and play with animals daily. If you do what you love you will never work a day off your life. I started working with animals when I was very young. I grew up being taught animal behavior and psychology and continue to learn more everyday My skills include walking, training, grooming, and playing. I have volunteered with Azalea City Cat Coalition and am friends with the founder of Friends of the Mobile Animal Shelter. I am used to nervous, anxious, and scared dogs. I am very flexible and make myself available to fit my clients schedules. I do volunteer work in my spare time and take care of my own personal animals and fosters. I go into in my client's homes and listen to their needs and wants. I clean up accidents inside and outside the home, scoop litter boxes, take the trash to the road if they are out of town, bring in the mail, wash food bowls, sweep up pet messes if necessary such as tracked litter, shedding hair, etc.
About: I’ve taken care of animals as long as I can remember and I enjoy it immensely. I use to raise and show Boxers and Dobermans. After that I started fostering for a number of different rescues so I have a lot of experience with different breeds and situations. I also helped with training so the dogs were more adoptable. I have had different sizes of dogs from a Lhasa Apso to Great Danes. I have also had horses, goats, cows, pigs ( inside and outside)and chickens. Lastly I have a Veterinarian Technician certification. I am currently working only a few hours and days so I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. I’m available weekends and during the week. I can adapt my schedule for you and your pet’s needs and provide the love, attention and care that your pets deserve when you are away.
About: I have been in-house pet sitting for 8 years now. What started as a college side gig has now turned into my side job business. After years of getting referrals by word of mouth, I recently, in 2026, decided to go public with my business! So that brings me to Rover! 🐾 I believe pet care is about more than just a task of feeding, potty breaks, and walks. I have always had a deep love for animals and making sure they feel LOVED. When you choose me as your sitter, your pets become my bonus-furbabies, and I love them as if they were my own! I learn your pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they receive love and care that is tailored to them. A lot of my clients are repeat clients, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality. As the owner of Paws & Relax Pet Staycation, I value building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I know how important communication is, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel cared for and comfortable in their home, and for you to return home knowing that they were treated like family. I currently work full-time near Grelot Rd. and University Blvd. When you hire me as your in-home pet sitter, my goal is to spend as much time as possible at your home with your pets, seamlessly blending their care with my workday schedule. I also provide overnight stays to ensure your pets have companionship throughout the night, keeping their usual routine completely intact and stress-free! If your home is within 15 to 20 min from my workplace, a midday visit is available for a potty break for your pets. I only provide pet sitting inside the client's home, as I believe pets do best in their own familiar surroundings. I always schedule a Meet & Greet at least two weeks before your trip so I can meet your pets with you there—that way, I’m a friend walking through the door on day one, not a stranger. While I'm visiting, we’ll fill out a personalized care sheet together. We'll map out everything from feeding schedules and medications to their favorite games, daily habits, and emergency info, ensuring they get the exact care they're used to.

“Lauri is phenomenal! She met with us prior to our Doggy Day Care date, answering and explaining all of our questions very professionally. On the day of taking cake of Jasper, she sent pictures while walking him and playing with him. She kept us updated. Jasper loves her! I have boarded my dog at several places and I have to say, having Lauri take care of my Jasper is the best decision! I didn’t even worry one bit. We will continued to book with Lauri!”

“Anna really helped us out this past weekend keeping our puppy for us in a hotel room while we had a few social events. We really appreciated her being so responsible and keeping our pup entertained. I would use her again. She was on time, friendly and very helpful. I didn’t have to worry at all while we were away!”


About: I’ve had animals my entire life and currently have two German Shepherds, Bella and Enzo, whom I’ve personally trained in basic obedience using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Caring for them has given me experience with energetic, intelligent dogs and the importance of maintaining a consistent routine. As a music educator, I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to detail—qualities that naturally carry over into how I care for pets. I’m comfortable with active, high-energy dogs as well as those who need a slower pace or extra attention. My goal is to treat every pet like family, providing reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. As an educator currently pursuing another degree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m also an early bird, so morning walks, feedings, and potty breaks are already part of my day. I have an established daily routine with my own two dogs that I can easily incorporate into caring for your pet, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and care. I intentionally keep my schedule organized so I can provide dependable care while keeping you updated and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I focus on providing care that keeps your pet comfortable by maintaining their normal routine in the environment they know best. Whether I’m house sitting, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking your dog on a walk, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special routines your pet is used to. As a pet owner myself, I treat every pet the way I would want someone to care for my own two dogs—with patience, kindness, and genuine attention. I believe trust is the foundation of every relationship between a pet sitter, a pet, and their owner. My goal is to earn that trust by providing dependable care, respecting your home, and keeping you updated with photos and messages so you always have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received from Paige. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does. She walked him several times, kept him company, and stayed with him while I was away, giving me total peace of mind. I came back to a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly well‑loved in my absence.”

About: Just a chill pet lover! Would love to share this with your animals! New friends for treats or walks, either way they will be treated like royalty! In most of my free time I love to meet new pets and fill in when the pet parents are busy at work or traveling! I make sure to follow any and all instructions given to me while in a customers home, or at my own! I would love to host your pets!
About: I’m a great individual that has a lot of experience taking care of fur babies. ranging from big doggy’s to little dogs and puppies. Cats as well, many different breeds. Not only I care for these fur babies I make sure they’re SAFE & Happy! (: Pet care currently fits in my life 7 days a weeks as I’m a stay at home mom and I don’t go back to Uni until the fall. I offer great care and updates on any fur baby. My home is a pretty spacious 2 story home and a fenced back yard. I have an animal door leading right to the back yard as well. The neighborhood I live in also offers a park and sidewalk in the whole neighborhood making it safe for daily and nightly walks. (:
About: I have had dogs, sometimes multiple ones, all my life. I am an animal lover, and advocate, of all kinds of animals. I just lost my Maltese of 13 years old which traveled the world with me literally. I was only away from him for two nights his whole life, and that was bc he spent the night at the vets one night, and I spent the night at the hospital one night. He went everywhere with me. From restaurants to Walmart. If I went he went. I have no children, so he was my child. I will treat your baby with the same love, and care. I have a newly build house with an acre that is fenced in. So, if your dog is large and likes to run outside, it can. I also have a screened in back porch. You baby will be safe and loved in my home. I am retired and spend most of my time at home. So your dog will be supervised, as per hour request. I am flexible and will listen to the owners request, as much as possible. I have a fenced in acre of land. I also have a screen in back porch. If you have small dogs, they can run freely, and I would stay outside to watch them. If you have large dogs they can stay out all they want. Dogs love me! They know if you are of good character, or not.
“Kalyn did a great job with our pups! She was timely and met us before even though it was on short notice for a holiday weekend. She was communicative and provided plenty of updates. She took great care of our house as well. Our dogs were worn slap out when we got back so I know they got lots of play time and exercise. I would definitely trust her again with our pups and recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!”

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 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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Colonial Heights
Campbell was absolutely wonderful! My pups loved her, and it was so obvious they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. She was great with communication, kept me updated, and made the whole experience completely stress-free. I really appreciated knowing my pups were in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Campbell and will definitely be booking her again!

Laura stayed in house for two weeks pet sitting for us. She took our dogs out for walks, ran errands with them and was in tune to each pet’s quirks. She even watered my plants, check mail, and brought in packages! Our home was turned back over in the same condition as we left it - I highly recommend trusting your babies with her!

Amanda was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I will forever use her to watch my babies! She was wonderful and my puppies absolutely adored her! She sent me so many wonderful pictures and took such great care of them and not once did I have to worry about their well being! Thank you so so much and I can’t wait to praise your sitting to other families who are in need of someone caring to watch their babies!
