“We had two elderly sick kitties. We lost our boy kitty a few days before the reservation. The reservation for drop ins changed a few times. It worked out in the end. It was just three days, but was important to have someone there for our girl kitty after she lost her littermate of 16 + years. Sage was very understanding of our situation.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and taken care of friends and family’s furry friends for years. I watched my sisters pitbull while she was deployed. I’m just in school online and waiting to get stationed for the army so I’ve got free time to hang out with your pets and have fun. I prefer to stay in your house where your dog is accustom and comfortable so not much is changing once you leave and you come back. Dogs like routine too.
About: Hi! My name is Ella. I currently graduated from UNG with a bachelors and I am a full time realtor. I have been dog sitting/walking/caring for 10+ years now. It all started with our neighbors, and then trickled down to friends. Since I thoroughly enjoy spending time with dogs, I thought it would only be appropriate to gain more friends/neighbors to help. My schedule is flexible for the most part, and I don’t mind making the drive since my real estate clients are in all areas! I wouldn’t even mind carrying your pups with me for work. Especially since COVID, I stay at home and work from home majority of the time if I’m not out showing or have appointments or errands set up! I’m excited to not only meet new friends, but to also meet your furry friends.
About: I have been around all different kinds of dogs my entire life. My parents were big animal lovers which had been passed on to me. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own. One is a smaller dog and our other 2 are bigger dogs (60-75 lbs). Our cat is a 3 year old cat who is not afraid of anything. He loves to play with our dogs like he is one of them! I have a heart for animals and love getting to spoil and play with all the dogs/ cats that I have the chance to meet. I currently am staying at home with my daughter! I was a teacher but now am staying at home full time. Whatever you need I am able to fit your animals schedule into my day! I am able to follow any schedule and rules that are needed to be followed. It is so important to know that your dog is in good hands and taken care of when you are away and I want to be sure that every client knows I will do that for them. I will be sure to love on, play and make sure the dogs needs are met and each client can have an eased mind when they are away.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I can remember. Bouviers, Airedale’s and Labs. I now have two small dogs, one being a rescue. Both have huge hearts and bigger personalities. They mean the world to me. My Yorkie has food allergies and trouble with pancreatitis sometimes so he’s on a very strict diet. I’ve always been keen on noticing symptoms or if something is not right with animals. I’m extremely careful about everything I do! I am home most of the time even on most weekends and holidays, so I have a lot of availability! Id love to help you take care of your Furbabies. I have a townhouse with a fenced in yard and I’m so close to the park. I take my dogs for a walk or in their stroller as much as I can.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care for each dog. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits early on. Additionally, I specialize in senior dog care, offering gentle and attentive support for older pets. My approach is all about understanding each dog's unique needs and making sure they feel coming and loved while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure to set aside time every day for feeding, walking, and playing with my furry friends. It's essential to me to prioritize their well-being and happiness, so I always make sure they get the attention and care they need. Whether it's a quick walk in the morning or some playtime in the evening, I love being there for them and making sure they feel loved and cared for. When I'm caring for pets in my own home, I make sure to create a safe and comfy environment. I have designated spaces for them to sleep, play, and eat. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. At a client's home, I stick to the pet's regular routine as much as possible. I follow any specific instructions the owner gives me to make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication, or favorite toys, I make sure to keep everything consistent so the pet feels right at home.

Currently new to the Ft. Rucker area with a little one in school. Looking to help others while she's in school. I'm currently free daily unless otherwise. I am very aware of my surroundings, I make sure that if your pet doesn't bode well in an area, I will make sure they are taken to an area that makes them feel comfortable. I make sure that they are safe and secure while walking or playing. Just like my own, I make sure their bums are clean after going out, as well as paws and faces. I'll make sure their food and water is clean or refilled.

I currently work from home so I do not have a strict schedule and can be flexible for your pets needs! I would prefer to not sleep in my clients home as I have my own pets that will miss me too! I have plenty of enrichment toys and puzzles for cats and dogs that can help reduce stress and increase mental stimulation, I will gladly administer medications as needed, and walk for exercise to what makes your pet most comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’m excited to apply what I’ve learned about my pets to others. Every pet has their own personality I want to get to know them. Pet car fits perfectly into my schedule as I complete college online and am home majority of the day they always have my undivided attention. I have a semi fenced yard but so much for them to run in the back. I have a fur baby of my own who loves to play, he’s gentle and sweet.

I would love the opportunity to get to know yours! I am available 7 days a week at anytime. I can be very flexible and have the availability for something regular. I would love to establish a relationship with you and your pet(s)!

“This was our first time using the drop-in visits feature of Rover and we’re so glad we decided to use Brittany! She was so great with our dog, Merribelle! She fed her, took her on short walks, and even gave her medicine and helped do some of Merribelle’s rehab needed for a current injury. Each time Brittany visited our home she sent us a detailed note of how Merribelle was doing and what all they did together. My favorite part was the pictures sent along with the notes. I was easily able to contact Brittany while we were gone to ask her about my dog and request special things for her. We will definitely be using Brittany again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m Dusty — full-time dog lover, part-time treat dispenser, and your pup’s next favorite human. I share my home (and heart) with two Australian Cattle Dogs: Leia the bossy big sister and Griff the chaotic little brother. They keep me on my toes and have trained me quite well in the art of fetch, belly rubs, and spotting squirrels from 300 yards. Whether your dog needs a cozy place to stay, a midday stroll, or just someone who understands that “zoomies” are a way of life — I’ve got you covered. I’m experienced, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my pack (yes, baby talk included). Let’s make some tails wag! Growing up, I fostered senior dogs, walked pups for elderly neighbors, and even cared for a retired military K9 until he was reunited with his handler — so your dog is in good hands, and likely good company too. I’m currently working full-time 40 hours during the week. I have time after 6 PM during the week and all day during the weekend. Preferably early mornings. I want to make sure every animal I care for is comfortable And get to know their personality and what they enjoy so it can be an enriching experience for them and not stressful.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Fort Rucker is $20

She’s the best! So caring and thoughtful! Lived getting all the updates and pics and videos. She really made it so much easier for me be away. I was put at ease with everyday my babies were being well taken care of. She’s super responsive and keeps you informed! Highly recommend!
Zyane is an excellent dog sitter and took great care of my Indy. She was more than willing to shift her schedule whenever I had last minute changes in my work schedule. She is reliable, consistent and considerate. She let me know in advance whenever her schedule changed so that I wasn’t rushing to find a last minute pet sitter. She would clean my dog’s paws after he got them muddy on their walks and I didn’t even have to ask her. She is very attentive and amazing to work with. 10/10 recommend
Hector was the perfect fit for our two large dogs. He was very knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. He gave medications, took them on walks, and even helped clean up after they got sick. We loved the check-ins and our boys loved having him stop by! Thanks, Hector!!
Kristen is just awesome! Last month somehow messed up scheduling a date Kristen and I had discussed for her too care for my three mini dachshunds on the day when I would be gone from home from 3 AM until 830 or 9 PM. I discovered that I had never scheduled it the night before we were to leave. I reached out to her via the River site. She advised that she already had a really busy day scheduled, and yet, still found time to schedule to drop in visits to check on my kids, feed them, and give them potty breaks. I let her know that I understood her being busy and that I could make other arrangements because I did not want to overburden her day when she was already so busy. She insisted that she was able to do the two drop in visits. My baby love her to death. She is such an awesome, caring, kind person. She goes above and beyond. She is a sitter, pet caregiver extraordinaire!!!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Rucker 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 Fort Rucker 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.

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.

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.
