About: I have loved animals since I was a little kid and as I got older I have cared for family and friends animals, now I am looking to find some more people and help care for their animals. I am currently a student in college and I have classes 2 days a week. 3 days a week I work at a restaurant at night and in the morning sometimes. I will fit time for your pet into my schedule to help their needs get fulfilled. I currently have a 5 year old Maltipoo and have some knowledge on animal first aid as next year I will be going to school for Veterinary Medicine.
“Chloe is a life saver. She had been working with Diesel on training and was already doing great. We went on vacation and family was supposed to be watching him. He is a rescue that still needs time to adjust and it was not working out at all and I was able to message her and she opened her schedule to help us out.”
“Charity watched our two cats while we were out of town. She gave great updates and got such cute pictures. She also sent a lot of pictures, which was greatly appreciated as it was our first time away from them.”
“Yvonne is such a caring sitter! Mavis is very cautious of people and she warmed up to Yvonne instantly ❤️ thank you for taking such good care of our fur baby while we were gone. 10/10 would chose Yvonne to watch my pet/s again.”
“Jessica was extremely nice, respectful, and was welcomed in my home. I have a hard time A. Leaving my pets with others and B. Letting people into my home. But Jessica did everything that made me feel so comfortable and reassured that my pet was taken care of well. Highly recommend and I intend to book again.”
“Finding the right sitter who can take care of our diabetic cat who needs insulin injections twice daily has been challenging. We are happy to say Hunter is a perfect fit for us. He made sure he understood our needs and sent photos during his visits. I highly recommend Hunter. We will definitely hire him again.”
“Victoria is a wonderful sitter. My cats are comfortable with her. She keeps me updated and all the happenings and sends me pictures. I have already recommended her to my neighbors.”
“Rachel did a wonderful job caring for our cat while we were away. She was very dependable and provided daily pictures and updates. We would not hesitate to recommend her to others, and look forward to having her back.”

“This was my first time leaving my cats, and I was so relieved to find Mckenzie. So grateful to her for her awesome cat sitting! She was extremely friendly and eager to bond with my cats to make them as comfortable as possible while we were gone. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really enjoyed. She also left the house spotless. Thanks again McKenzie, I’m sure we will be contacting you again!”
“Riann and Bella took to each other right away. Riann came on time every day, played with and fed Bella. All went well and I was pleased with everything Riann did. She even set me cute pictures everyday.”

“This was our first experience with a Rover drop-in sitter for our senior cat and Kyla put us at ease! She sent lots of photos with each visit and even a couple videos. Hendrix was a happy cat when we got home and Kyla took care to lock up and even grab the mail and a package for us. We look forward to utilizing her services again!”
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and a natural instinct for taking care of them. I’ve pet sat my uncle’s dog several times, making sure they were walked, fed, and felt at home while he was away. I also watched over my parents’ Great Dane for a full week while they were on their anniversary trip — managing meals, walks, and plenty of cuddle time with a 150-pound gentle giant. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a chill senior dog, I treat every pet with patience, care, and respect. You can count on me to show up, follow instructions, and make your pet feel safe and loved. I'm currently searching for employment, so I'm available anytime. Seeking to make some money on the side while job hunting. What better way than to do what i love - spend time with animals I have a fully fenced backyard on a 23-acre property, and three friendly dogs who love meeting new buddies. Your pet will have space to play and relax safely. I can easily crate your dog if needed, follow any feeding or medication instructions, and always make sure your fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the pack.
About: I’ve grown up on a farm and cared for all walks of furry animals! Being a dog owner of 5 dogs from puppies to seniors makes me the perfect fit for any dog/animal. I am professional and punctual and will put your pet before anything else! I did a 2 year Vet program so I am useful and resourceful when it comes to the care of your pet. I can also offer pet photography, as well as nail trimming for tamed dogs. I am fully available for pet care anytime of the day, night or week. I am a freelance artist making my schedule very flexible for your convenience I will abide by any rules/schedules/specifications as provided by you. If none are provided I will treat them as family! Play time, walks, cuddles, possibly even training!
“Alyssa is truly a kind and genuine individual and you can tell just by meeting her and speaking with her that she really cares for animals. My dogs really like her and I feel so much more at ease knowing they are being checked on by someone who will really make sure they are okay. Having Alyssa to check on my little fluff balls makes me feel lucky this service exists. I know it has really helped my pets to feel more calm while I’m at work. Thank you, Alyssa!!!”

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elba. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
