About: My sister and I raised a litter of kittens when we were younger. I learned all about responsibility and how to handle animals early on. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available on most days of the week and weekends. I am great with routines, cleanliness, and playtime. If you have any requests and details, like food and litter box specifics, toys, and schedules, I will gladly take notes.
“Katrina did a wonderful job keeping my 2 pups. They were very well cared for while we were away and she made sure to send several updates and pictures throughout the day. She definitely goes above and beyond. Would highly recommend Katrina to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Greer has stayed at our home with our sweet pup several times now. This time she truly went above and beyond. She noticed that our pup ate a mushroom while he was outside in the yard. She immediately reached out to us, researched the mushroom to figure out that it was poisonous, and took him to the after hours animal hospital. It really makes us feel great knowing that our pup is in such good hands while we are away!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and currently care for my own large-breed dog, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I can handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, basic routines, medications if instructions are provided, and giving your pet attention while you’re away. I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and understand the importance of patience, structure, and respecting each dog’s individual personality. My goal is to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re gone. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in care throughout the week. I’m available for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, check-ins, and making sure pets have fresh water and are comfortable while their owners are away. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and respect every pet’s normal routine. During drop-ins, I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and water are handled properly, and pets get the attention and care they need. I’m comfortable with both small and large dogs and will always prioritize safety.
About: I'm great with dogs I have 4 of my own and love them very much. I offer sitting and walking I have more experience with large dogs but I can also care for small dogs. My schedule is open but I prefer to receive jobs either 1 day earlier or same day after 3:00 pm. I've had 10 years of experience taking care of dogs both large and small so rest assured your sweet dogs will be in good hands My schedule is open for any jobs available. Any time you need me to sit for your dog I'm available with little exceptions to that. I can walk, feed, and care for your dogs to my best ability I have my own leash if your dog doesn't already have one.
About: I have been caring for pets for over three years and possess substantial experience in working with animals. I am genuinely enthusiastic about the opportunity collaborate with you. I am available to work a full-time schedule from 10 AM to 6 PM or 8 to 4 PM. Additionally, I can work part-time if needed; however, I have a preference for full-time hours if given the opportunity. I provide pet sitting services at clients', well as walking and house sitting for pets. Since I reside in an apartment complex, am able to house dogs if a crate is provided.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and I absolutely love them all the same. I currently care for two beautiful boys and would love to bring more into my life! I'm currently unemployed and focusing on dog sitting 6 days a week. I have a reliable car and full focus on your fur babies as needed! I have two leads in my yard that go pretty far, with shade and water. Dogs only outside for potty. Mostly inside with house all day.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Coosada walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Coosada maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Coosada choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
