“Was a great help walking my dog! Did stuff as simple as turning the TV back on her for her when she left which means so much. Would book again!”

About: As a child, growing up I was always bringing home stray animals to care for. I've been rescuing & caring for animals for over 20 years now. I have rescued & cared for a variety of different animals. I have expertise in caring for senior animals, those with illnesses, have imapirments,are handicapped, have disabilities or those that may have special needs. I'm everyone's go to for pet questions/concerns, pet sitting & pet rescue. I am an animal advocate & longtime member of PETA, ASPCA, Alley Cats Allies, National Wildlife Federation & Humane Society of the United States. I support local recues such as Forgotten Tails Rescue, Kitty Kat Haven & Two by Two Animal Rescue. I am currently & have been a stay at home mother to two boys, ages 6 & 7 for the past 7 years. My availability it pretty well open during the weekdays to be able to assist for you & your pet's needs. I have an open back yard (1 acre) for your doggo to run & play. Indoors we have a large sectional that everyone likes to pile up on & snuggle. I also have puppy pads to use indoor & can also crate your pupper if you prefer, but I usually prefer not to confine the fur babies.

About: I have two adorable kitties 🐈‍⬛🐈, they are both 4 years old. I have a lot of experience with taking care of younger and older cats since I have taken care of many friends cats. I also have helped taking care of friends and family’s dog. Cats : Feeding, playing, cleaning. nail trimming and hair brushing if needed, and other special requests. ❤️ Dogs: Feeding, short or longer walk, playing, other special requests. ❤️ I have a full time job but my work schedule is pretty flexible since I don’t have to work 9-5 every week day. And my weekend schedule is also flexible. I live in a two bedroom apartment with two cats. I always keep both of my cats indoor. My neighborhood is nice and quiet, not much noise.

About: With eight years of experience as the sole care provider for dogs and a lifetime of living with them, I bring a wealth of knowledge and love to pet care! What sets me apart is my passion for working with dogs of all kinds, from energetic puppies to seasoned seniors. I have a special knack for handling unique situations, like caring for my Yorkshire terrier with diabetes, which taught me how to manage medications with love and patience. Training my border collie from a hyperactive puppy to an eight-year-old with arthritis has given me valuable experience in adapting care to meet the changing needs of dogs as they age. I'm thrilled to share my enthusiasm and experience with your pets, ensuring they receive the best care and plenty of belly rubs! I currently work part-time and have the flexibility to make my own schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care and accommodate my clients' needs. This flexibility means I can easily work around the customer's schedule, ensuring that their pets receive the care and attention they need at the most convenient times. Whether it's daily walks or drop-in visits, I am committed to providing reliable and personalized care that fits seamlessly into my routine. When caring for pets in my client's home, safety and trust are my top priorities. During drop-in visits, I ensure that pets are in a secure environment by checking doors, gates, and any potential hazards to keep them safe. I also follow any specific instructions from the owners regarding feeding, medication, or special care routines. For dog walking, I use secure leashes and harnesses to ensure pets are safely guided during our walks. I always stay aware of our surroundings to avoid potential dangers, such as traffic or other animals, and I tailor each walk to meet the individual needs and energy levels of the dog. Building trust with both pets and their owners is important to me, and I always communicate clearly and promptly to keep everyone informed and comfortable.

About: I’ve raised two puppies, giving me experience in potty training, and general behavioral training. I have also had a special needs/medicated dog, allowing me to have experience in managing more specific care routines. I have experience in both dog and cat sitting! As a college student, I have a lot of free time on my hands. Even during exams, a furry friend and some time outdoors would be more than welcome! In my client’s home, I will follow my clients house rules (I.e. if they use crate training, make sure to return my client’s pet to their crate before I leave, etc).

About: I have had dogs my entire life, starting to seriously take care of my first dog when I was 10. I’ve worked at several animal related jobs, such as a dog daycare, a pet store, and I worked on a farm for several months in 2021. I have petsit for neighbors and friends for years. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I love dogs deeply and know how to work well with them. In addition to dogs, I have lots of experience with cats, rodents, reptiles, fish, birds, and I can take care of your plants while you’re away too! I’m currently a part-time student at UAB and I work part-time at Breakout Birmingham. My schedule is relatively flexible as long as I have enough notice to make any adjustments or accommodations! I have my own car and am more than willing to make multiple trips a day. I have lots of housesitting experience and will respect your space and do anything else you need taken care of while you’re gone. I will take care or your pets wherever they’re most comfortable and make sure they have fun and feel safe.

“Courtney was great with my furbaby. She was timely, professional, kind, dependable, and took good care of my baby on his walks. We look forward to working with her again soon. Great job!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and currently have three of my own! I often watch my family and friends’ pets when they go on vacation or out of town! I don’t mind walking, playing, bathing, or giving your fur babies all the attention they need/want! I work full time M-F 8-4:30. On days I work, I can guarantee that your dog(s) go out right before I leave for work and right when I get home and right before bed. On days I don’t work I will make sure your dog goes out every atleast 3 hours with plenty of play time. At my home, I currently have 6 dogs of my own that are crate trained so if your dog(s) aren’t too fond of other dogs I can keep them separated. I prefer pets to be crate trained so if I have to leave the house they can be put up to ensure they don’t get into anything but it’s not a deal breaker if they aren’t. I can feed, water, and give medicine if need be based on your pets needs.

“There are not enough positive words to describe Rebecca. I injured my knee walking my dog in the park and it left me unable to even walk her around our yard. I had no one close by that I could turn to for help so I signed in to Rover to see if I could arrange the care she needed while I dealt with my situation. Two walkers turned me down flat and a third completely ignored me, but not Rebecca! Not only did she respond quickly and accept my bookings, she started the same day and has gone the extra mile and then some. She treats my dog with the same care and love that I would and the piece of mind that’s brought me is immeasurable. If you want someone who is friendly, professional and will care for your dog the same way you would there is no one else you need to reach out to. There aren’t enough people in this world like her and I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“Davis is the best!!! Highly recommended!”

“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!”

I currently work part time at a vet clinic, but l am still open as far as availability throughout the week. I have the ability to take my dog to work if needed along with yours so your pup wouldn't have to be left alone while I'm gone. I currently have a dog and live in avondale near several dog parks great for outdoor daytime play! I also have an extra crate and would be happy to adhere to any requests as far as crate rest or training at night or at intervals throughout the day.

“Amazing service”

“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!”

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

About: I love all animals but I was mostly raised around dogs they was more open an friendly. I had a habit of trying to save any dog I found as a child. As an adult I still do but now I have full control to do it🥰. I take them to shelters if I find them on the streets especially puppies . I want a dog but since I been living in my apartment I cannot have one because of their policy, so I decided to come aboard to Rover an love your pets. It gives me positivity in my life an a sense of peace from the busy city , if you treat your pets like family then I’m in the right place! I’ll meet you all soon.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾
