About: I have cared for dogs, cats, snakes and hamsters of multiple breeds/sizes for friends overseas. No special training but self taugh crate trainer and have worked primarily with puppies/kittens I work from 8am-4pm four to five days a week. Mornings i make sure pets have food/water and their first potty break. If needed, I come home from 11am-1pm to let dogs out again. I have a big backyard that i am able to fence off for play. Crated pets will stay in my spare bedroom or living room. I prefer to let pets roam and not be crated all day.

About: Experienced dog-sitter looking to serve clients in the North Alabama area!

“Absolutely so thankful for Brandie. Her correspondence was immediate and she provided great follow ups during her drop-in visits at my home, with my pup, while I was away. Will definitely use her again and the drop-in visit option.”
“Christina is amazing! This was our first time with Christina and we hit a home run. She went above and beyond to care for our babies, as well as, helping us out with things we didn’t even expect. She vacuumed up cat litter, collected our mail and took the trash out just so we wouldn’t have to do those things when we got home. And as wonderful as all that is, her care of our Tootie and JP was excellent! She spent lots of time on walks and play time and it was obvious our babies loved her visits and looked forward to them every day. I highly recommend Christina to take care of your pets. You’ll be glad you did.”
About: I’ve had many types of dogs since 11 years old of all ages, from babies to senior ages. I care for all dogs. No exceptions :) I work part time during the morning.

“Anthony was absolutely amazing taking care of our senior Golden Retriever! He went above and beyond to make sure our sweet boy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He took him on walks, gave him extra attention, and truly treated him like his own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. Anthony was thoughtful, dependable, and genuinely wonderful with our dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for him! We are so grateful for everything Anthony did and will absolutely be using him again in the future. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about their pets! ❤️🐾”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 524 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Elora. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elora. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
