“Tim is a great petsitter and my dog love him . He always sent me pictures and answers my questions about my dog . And the most import thing was my dog had a good time with him .”
“Koryn was wonderful and attentive while looking after my dog, Sarge; she kept me updated with photos and videos during his meals and walks, and I am truly happy and grateful for that. I hope to book with her again someday! Thanks, Koryn :)”
“Boarding our 7 month old springer spaniel with Kimberly provided such a peace of mind! She was very responsive and easy to work with from the start. She sent regular updates while we were traveling, which we greatly appreciated, too! Georgie seemed to be quite at home and loved having two friends to play with. At the end of our trip we picked up a happy and tired boy from a fun-filled 6 days. Would absolutely recommend and book with Kimberly again!”
“I cannot say enough about Victoria and Danny. My puppy has never been around big dogs or young energetic dogs. He has only been around my husband and I as well as my husband’s parents, who usually keep him when we’re away. They have a dog, but their dog is 8 years old and very calm and quiet. When I realized our family would all be out of town on the same weekend, I was very worried about putting our pup in a large boarding facility for fear it would overwhelm and frighten him. My fears were confirmed when I took him walking one day and we came upon a larger energetic dog. My poor pup was afraid of the friendly dog who just wanted to meet him. I knew it was time to socialize him more, but wanted to do it in a smaller setting with fewer dogs and someone who could give him a bit more attention. I was so blessed to find Victoria. I explained everything to her and she was so kind and on board to help in any way. We met a few days before his boarding day and although he was very timid and only wanted to stay by my side, she was so patient with him and gave him time to grow comfortable with her and his new surroundings. She even interdict”
About: I have a small apartment duplex-home, and a privacy fenced backyard that is specifically for the enjoyment of dogs: including a splash pad! I am home through-out the day and all night long. My dog guests play in the back yard as I supervise, have access to the couch and bed or can be crated. Experienced in dog sporting events, medications and separation anxiety. Owners provide their own food. My life is centered around my dogs and I work from home. I have extra crates available if needed or your fur baby can supervise me as I work. Dogs are never left outside unattended. Dogs are let out either separately or with another depending on temperament. Dogs are all fed separately to avoid any conflicts. The splash pad is available every time they go outside if they choose to play with it along with oodles of toys. Dog poo removed immediately to ensure a safer yard environment.
About: I’ve never *not* had an animal in my care. My best friends growing up were a German Shepherd and a Golden Retriever. Since then I’ve had friends of all shapes and sizes, from the smallest teacup sized cats to dogs that weighed more than I did. My whole life has inspired me to pursue a Veterinary Medicine degree, so my knowledge concerning pets has grown exponentially the last few years. I know pets are a vital part of the family, and I can assure you I’ll take care of them like I would my own. My day to day changes often! I’m currently a part time student and a part time employee, but both of my schedules allow lots of flexibility! In my clients homes I want to meet whatever expectations you might have of me. I would never want my clients to feel unsatisfied or disrupt the routines of your pets. In my own home we like to spend a lot of time outside. Whether it’s going on walks or out and about in town, lots of time is spent in the sun. We have a local dog park nearby and I am an avid user of SniffSpot.That’s not your pets vibe? Thats totally cool with me! We can spend our days cuddling on the couch and binging a new TV show.

“Reich and his wife Elizabeth are the best pet sitter team! Bambi takes a lot of time to warm up to people and within 24 hrs he was playing and enjoying walks very happily. He had daily walks and play sessions, and I got photos/videos each time. My search for the perfect pet sitter has ended, I know who I'm rebooking with next time! Thanks again”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairhope
Kate was the best choice I could have made to board my dogs with. She communicated clearly from the start and throughout the entire time of the boarding. I recieved pictures and updates multiple times a day. There was no stone left unturned or request not responded to. At no time did I think my dogs were not well taken care of. I suggest you choose Kate if you are looking for a private boarder.

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 .
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.
