Leslie was absolutely wonderful. My standards for pet care are extremely high, and she exceeded them in every way. She was attentive, reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural understanding of animals. My dogs were calm, happy and very well cared for. It is rare to find someone who combines professionalism, intuition, warmth and true animal understanding so naturally. I would trust Leslie again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care.

About: I’ve never owned my own dog, but have always loved them since I was a kid. I’ve played with all types of dogs from small to big, and it has always been a dream to have one some day. I just haven’t had the chance yet. But I am full of energy and love to walk, and am very responsible and caring. I work a full time job 8-3 Monday through Friday, but am pretty free in the evenings, and weekends are usually free! I am looking mostly to do walks and/or drop-ins, but am open to take care of your dog for the weekend if you’re out of town or need extra help! I live in an apartment, so if given a crate I could care for your small dog in my place. But for bigger dogs I would be happy to come over and take care of him/her. I am great with instructions so just tell me what you need me to do and I’ll be happy to care for your pet! I love walking dogs.

About: I’ve been around dogs since the day I was born, and love taking care of them. I have watched and walked dogs for friends and family off and on since I was 15. I’ve watched sweet senior dogs to energetic puppies. I have potty trained and leased trained my dogs and provided medications for dogs. I am Pre-vet major. I have school 4 days a week Monday to Thursday. I work around my class schedules which gives me a good amount of free time to check on the dogs I am taking care of. Having been around dogs all my life, I enjoy their company. I think dogs are our best friends and should be treated as such. I realize some dogs need lots of energy released and others not so much!

About: My experience with pet care started with taking care of my own dogs since I was 11. When I was 15 I was able to start taking care of family and friends pets while they were on vacation. Since then, i’ve worked as a kennel tech at a veterinary clinic, a dog bather at a grooming facility, and I’ve worked with a pet sitting company as a sitter/dog walker. I’m available any day of the week, I can do late night let outs, early morning walks, mid-day play dates, and overnight stays in your home so your pet can feel as comfortable as possible, anything you need I can get it done. If you’re just needing me to come feed and let out I can do a small home task if needed, turn lights on/off, water plants, bring in mail, take out trash, light dusting etc. I can provide my services any day of the week between the hours of 7am and 9pm and overnight sitting in your home. (special request are always welcome) I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and happiness of every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special needs. I make sure pets are always supervised, kept in a safe environment, and given plenty of love and attention. When house sitting, I treat my client’s home with the same care and respect as I would my own, while keeping them updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I've had at least one dog in my family for my whole life. From dachshunds to Labradors, I have taken care of dogs of every size. Through sickness and health, dogs deserve the best care possible and an active lifestyle. I have always prided myself on not letting my dogs sit inside all day, so I have plenty of experience walking/playing/chilling out with our best friends. I'm currently on a full-time job search, so I will have plenty of time to walk/feed/play with your dogs etc. for multiple hours of the day! I live on Fish River with a yard and plenty of safe walking areas. We have a fenced patio as well for outdoor relaxing for the dogs! There is also a swimming area with easy access if a client would ever want their dog to play in the water!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. I have been with inside dogs to outside. No size scares me and have dealt with dogs that have required full 24/7 care with timed medications. I’m currently a college student looking for morning work aside from my afternoon job. If you need a home sister or someone to check in on the weekends I am your person as-well! In your home, I follow the same standards I would for my own. Your dog is my top priority whether we’re snuggling, playing fetch or tug-of-war, or enjoying a walk. I provide care with patience, attention, and genuine love, just as every dog deserves. You tell me what your dog needs and I will be there.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I also offer cat sitting services for any cat moms and dads. My home has always been filled with dogs, and I currently care for multiple of my own, so I understand the importance of providing consistent, loving, and reliable care. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous dogs, helping them adjust, build confidence, and find their forever homes. That experience has taught me how to work with dogs who have different temperaments, energy levels, and specific needs. I’m also comfortable administering daily medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays happy and healthy. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, exploring the neighborhood, or curling up for snuggles, I’ll tailor their care to match their routine. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own. You’ll also receive regular updates and plenty of photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having fun. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! I am free most weekends and would love to add a Rover visit to my Friday afternoon, Saturday, or Sunday! I am available from early morning to around 8pm. I am comfortable leash walking, back yard play time, or even just relaxing. Your pet’s needs are catered to your requests and what your fur baby needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ranging from kittens to 16 year old. I love seeing all the different type of personalities they have. I’m currently working part time- I do school one day a week the rest is online but other than that I am an open book. Taking them on walks daily, make sure they have enough outside time, but also get play time inside in the air conditioning. Fun, play and enjoy

About: With over 20 years as a devoted dog mom, my heart and home are open to your fur baby. I have a profound love for dogs and prefer them to people. lol- JK…ish🐾🤭 jokes aside, every dog deserves a place where they can be cared for, loved, and comfortable when their people have to be away. Offering that is a great responsibility I take pleasure in embracing. Raising my current Weimaraner’s, June and Pluto, from puppyhood, I’ve honed my skills in consistent, patient, and loving puppy training. I’m equally experienced with senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges or blindness, ensuring they feel safe and cherished. From the eye boogers to more serious issues, I’m always prioritizing your dog’s unique needs with honesty and integrity. My home features a large, fenced backyard and a cozy screened-in patio for relaxing together. With me working from home, your pup will enjoy constant companionship alongside June and Pluto, who love welcoming new pack members.🐾🤎 Working from home, I provide round-the-clock companionship for your dog. My flexible job lets me step away to play outside, cuddle indoors, or give pets and love throughout the day. Whether in our dog🐾approved large backyard, my couches, or even my bed, I’m always by your pup’s side, ensuring they’re never alone. June and Pluto, my 2 Weims are naturally gentle, playful, and welcoming to dogs of all sizes, from tiny paws to big goofballs. Dogs are masters at reading energy, and I promise your pup will feel safe, loved, and a genuine pack inclusion.🐾 Our backyard is great! It is a secure paradise for zoomies, fetch, and adventures—safe, private, and fun. When it’s time to wind down, our screened-in patio is the spot to relax together, soak up the breeze, and just chill…. or get the squeaky out of every toy 😆 We do have pool, but rest assured: I’m always vigilant and take precautions or jump in fully clothed without hesitation- seriously, no worries. To make your pup feel extra comfortable, please bring their favorite daily essentials (bedding, blankets, crate, toys, food, etc.). I have plenty of backups on hand if needed, but nothing beats their own familiar smells! 🐾 Every stay is tailored with all my heart to your dog’s unique personality and routine. Your pup will have constant companionship, warm welcomes from June and Pluto, and never a dull (or lonely) moment. *and they will comeback to you bathed if needed* Contact me for a safe, fun, loving stay—

About: I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have been helping with pets since middle school. Growing up, I also gained hands-on experience working as a stable hand, which taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, and paying close attention to each animal’s needs. While living in the Birmingham area for college, I provided dependable pet care and house-sitting for families, including caring for both dogs and cats during longer stays. Now that I’m back home on the Eastern Shore, I’m excited to continue offering pet care locally and would love the opportunity to care for your pets, too! I have a calm, gentle presence and do my best to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and thoughtful about following each pet’s normal routine, preferences, and care instructions. I currently work a remote part-time job, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays, including extended house-sitting. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to give your pets consistent attention and make their care a priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I want both the pets and their owners to feel completely comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and any special needs so I can keep things as familiar and low-stress as possible. I also treat each home with respect by keeping things clean and tidy, following instructions carefully, and making sure everything is safely locked up before I leave.

Georgia was very sweet with our dogs, she really gave them the Individual attention that they needed. She even went out of her way to be attentive to our cat that was not included to her rover contract. We were so pleased with the love and care she gave to them that we look forward to her care in the future!!!!

Chandler was great with our lab! She was very responsible, prompt and sent photos every day while we were out of town….she did a great job for us. She came to our home to get familiar with where she would be going every day and got to meet Maisey. We will certainly call her again…such a sweet person!

Jessica was great! We booked her last minute being new to town and having no other pet sitting options. Our plans even changed while out of town and she was flexible and able to book extra visits! Would highly recommend and we will be using her again. She took great care of our pups and sent us photos of each visit.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Fairhope on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 712 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Fairhope. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fairhope stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Fairhope 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!

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 dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Fairhope with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairhope. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
