“Feather took care of our 7 cats while we were on a vacation abroad. As well as tending to a sick kitty's medication, Feather fed the cats, scooped the litter trays, and played with the cats too, not to mention taking out the trash! We will be using Feather again for a short trip we have planned in the near future.”
“Jessie was absolutely incredible while house sitting for us! She had great communication, followed our instructions, and took great care of our dogs! She really set the bar high for dog sitters, and we can’t wait to have her look after our dogs again!”

“Rebekah was the best. I have a very “quirky” Aussie. Rebekah was patient and perfect with her. I was gone to my son’s wedding for 3 days. She gave me updates frequently and even sent pics. My pup was walked daily and was a happy girl when I got home. I had peace of mind knowing my pup was happy while I was gone. I will definitely be booking Rebekah again! She is an awesome pet sitter.”

“Was my first time ever using rover and Tara was an absolute gem! Gave me daily updates about my boy and let me know some concerns she had. She even remembered I gave him pancakes on Saturday mornings and brought him some. Could not ask for a better dog sitter, absolutely went above and beyond! I think my Zeus was disappointed when she didn’t come through the door. Will definitely rebook her in the future.”

“This is probably the fifth time that Ashlyn has watched our three year old golden retriever in our home. She’s just the best!! Our dog adores her, and we have total peace of mind when we’re out of town that she’s being loved and well cared for. Thank you, Ashlyn!”


About: My sister and I fostered all types of dogs and cats through the Greater Birmingham Humane Society since 2020. Since I have moved to Calera, I now assist locally with CHILTON County TNR. As of now, I take care of a dog and cat, which were both rescues. Im currently working Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and do remote work Tuesdays and Fridays! I also have availability for weekends, just ask me about specific times! I have a big fenced in backyard with some big trees that allow some good shade. There is also a back porch with an awesome fan because we all get hot in this Alabama heat. I have 2 friendly dogs that can help your dog get some energy out or they can be separated by crates which I can provide, depending on your preference.
“I am a first-time puppy owner and had to travel out of town unexpectedly for a funeral. I was understandably nervous and hesitant to leave Georgie since he's so young, but I know that keeping his environment consistent is extremely important right now. Then I found Annie on Rover.com. Annie was an absolute godsend who put me at ease immediately. She was extremely responsive and even sent me the most adorable pictures of my sweet boy. I am so appreciative of the stellar care that she provided and we hope to have her come and visit again soon! 10/10 would definitely recommend. Thank you, Annie!”

“Emily is AMAZING!! She kept our VERY quirky & needy dog at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. She was so wonderful to work with…and allowed me to feel 100% at peace knowing that Windsor was being taking care of while we enjoyed my nephew’s rehearsal dinner and wedding!! Great communication…she responded immediately when I texted her…and was wonderful to send me updates and pictures of Windsor!! I HIGHLY recommend Emily if you need someone to care for your pet…she is MAGNIFICENT!! She is a dog whisperer…she quickly and totally understood our very quirky and needy dog and took care of him like he was her own!! ??⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️??”


About: Growing up in a house with lots of animals has taught me how to care for animals with patience, love, and responsibility from a very young age meaning I’m very comfortable handling all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs! I truly believe every animal deserves quality time, genuine affection, and attentive care — not just the basics. As a dog mom myself to my sweet (and slightly crazy!) baby, I completely understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I know how much specific routines, instructions, and little details matter, and I will always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, walks, patience, or extra attention, I’m here for it all. You can relax knowing your baby will be treated like family with me! Skills… - oral medications - any type of extra care - shy/quiet animals - comfortable with hyper, energetic animals - older animals - puppies of any kind - calm under pressure - Excellent communication with owner - pet safety awareness - long walks and active play - gentle handling technique I work at Starbucks so I go by shifts each week! Each week is the exact same shifts so it makes to easy on me and the owner! When can I visit?… (please remember I can be flexible and visit before or after shifts if communicated with!) Monday: 8:00am-12:00pm and 9:30pm-10:30pm Tuesday: 8:00am-10:00pm Wednesday: 8:00am-12:00pm and 9:00pm-10:00pm Thursday: after 4:00pm-8:00pm Friday: after 1:00pm-8:00pm Saturday: after 1:00pm-10:00pm Sunday: from 11:00am-6:00pm Please know your pets care and safety are my utmost responsibility. I understand the need for communication, specific instructions, and genuine care for your animal. I know that if I left my pet in someone else’s care, I would want the utmost respect, patience, gentle-hands, and skills to be applied. And I am more than happy to give that same experience to your baby! I love all types of animals and each personality is different and beautiful. This isn’t just another job for me, it’s a way to help others in a genuine, kind way! From one parent to another, I understand and I would love to work with you! Just communicate what you need me to do and consider it done!
