“Teresa and her husband are very accommodating and flexible with my early morning drop offs or late evening pickups. My pups enjoy playing with their own dogs and always look happy in their updates and when I pick them up 😊”
“They were amazing with my Bodhi, he seemed so happy in pictures and everything. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing a sitter. Was also very accommodating for it being last minute.”
“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”
“Stephen was reliable, friendly, and highly professional, providing top-notch care for my pup. As this was my first time leaving my dog with someone else, I was initially hesitant, but after meeting Stephen, I immediately felt confident that my pup was in great hands. Throughout the stay, Stephen communicated effectively and sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me real peace of mind. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. I’ll absolutely be returning without reservation, this was a wonderful experience from start to finish.”
“We used Elizabeth again because she did such a great job the first time. She sent pictures of a walk and we were so happy to see our dog having fun. Elizabeth is very dependable and good. We are so glad we connected with her through Rover and will definitely use her again. Our dog really likes her!”
About: I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each animal’s routine, personality, and comfort level. I also have experience caring for geriatric pets and animals that need medication, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and close attention to detail. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, basic reinforcement of good habits, or extra care, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I am already used to being responsible, organized, and consistent with my time. I make sure pets receive dependable care, attention, walks, feeding, medication if needed, and companionship without feeling rushed. I understand that animals do best with routine, so I work hard to follow each owner’s instructions and keep their pet’s schedule as normal and comfortable as possible. I focus on keeping their routine as normal, safe, and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medication, potty breaks, crate use, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets have a clean, calm environment, fresh water, regular attention, and plenty of patience. I also pay close attention to behavior, energy level, appetite, and comfort so I can quickly notice if something seems off. My goal is to give each pet dependable care while giving the owner peace of mind.
“Dex and Chase came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. I really appreciated the messages and photos that showed them playing, relaxing, and enjoying their stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands.”
“Needed someone to watch my little furbaby over the holidays last minute and Brynna was very quick to respond! She was very kind and sent updates and pictures over the three day stay! Nyla seemed very happy and energetic at pick up so I was satisfied. This was my first Rover experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Brynna again ? Thank you again!”
“Chris was such a savior for us when our travel plans were derailed by flight delays! He sent lots of pictures of our golden Squid having the best time and we felt assured he was in capable hands! We are so grateful.”

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Echo home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Echo.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Echo sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
