Sarah was so wonderful! She took great care of our two cats while we were away, providing pictures for us and was in constant communication the entire time. Sarah was on time, very reliable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her!

Belinda goes above and beyond when caring for our pets. We had a sick doggy and we had to change the schedule around 3 or 4 times.. She was so understanding and accommodating, she took care of modifying the schedule each time! Our dogs love her and we would highly recommend her! She treats our pets as she would her own!! Thanks Belinda! You are the best!! :)

Robin kept my Golden for a week and I think he misses her.? She gave him lots of attention. Robin also checked in on my cat and I arrived home to find him happy and content. It was like there was no interruption in their routine. She kept me updated with messages and pictures. Leaving my fur babies in Robins capable care allowed me to really enjoy my vacation! Definitely recommend!!

About: I have been around a wide variety of dogs and cats ever since I was born. I have been dog and cat sitting both in my Home and at the pet owners home for almost 20 years. I have taken care of dogs and cats, both ones that I had prior experience with and new ones that didn't know me before we initially met. I don't believe I've ever met a dog or cat that didn't like me. I already own a dog, and I frequently take her outside and give her walks. I am used to having all sorts of dogs both in my my home, and staying at the owner's home. My back yard is fully fenced in, and I always use leashes/leads if we go out the front door (for walks or if I'm mowing the lawn for example. If you have a Cat I will take them outside or keep them inside, whichever you prefer. My street ends in a dead end, so there is not a lot of traffic on it. If your pets are more comfortable in your home I am happy to take care of them there, and have experience with it. There are stairs in my house to a basement, but there is a door at the top that remains closed to keep pets from hurting themselves on the stairs. Pets are allowed on furniture in my home (unless you would prefer otherwise,) and if they enjoy sleeping on the bed I am happy to allow them to do that. I keep a stock of Greenies, Marrowbones, and Dental Chew Sticks, and will give them out with any schedule you provide, or you can bring your own.

Bethany loved on my boys, Yoshi & Jet, providing the best care! She played with them, brushed them & fussed over them just like I wished....just like I do myself. Now, as for my dogs.... They want to know where "Their Beffany" is!?!! As if they'd rather have her feed them than me. (of course is Bethany A. said in dog)

Grayson was great with my cats. She fed them and made sure they had water as well as interacted with them. They are a bit shy and she was able to pet them and that really surprised me.

Joanne = lifesaver. This was my first experience leaving my cat Smokey with a stranger, and Joanne showed her the same loving care as my family and friends. I appreciated all the notes and pics. Thank you, Joanne!

About: I’m reliable and flexible. I will spend quality time with your babies. I will take them for walks and play. I will love them like they are my own. I can follow whatever routine you have. I do work full time but before and after work won’t be a problem. I will make sure to keep them on the same routine. I can care for your pets in your home better than them being boarded or kenneled. I can housesit and take care of your pets. If your dogs need to be bathed I can bath them.

About: Hello! My name is Rachel and I grew up with a cat and 2 dogs in my family. I fostered dogs from the local shelter all throughout college and pet sit for a few neighbors each month. I love animals and would love to help care for yours! Being active and attentive is important to me in caring for your animal. I can walk, play, dog sit, feed and let your furry friends out for you at an affordable price. I have a flexible schedule as well. I have been helping out with my neighbor’s dog for almost a year now so I have a credible reference if needed. I have lots of energy and love for animals so feel free to reach out anytime if you need some care for your pet. Since I work for myself, I have a flexible routine and can be available for regular drop-ins, walks, or extended care depending on what you need. I’m able to schedule visits consistently throughout the day and week, and I’m always focused on keeping pets on their usual routine. I’m based in Gulf Shores and I’m happy to travel to surrounding areas for pet care. I take safety and trust seriously and always care for pets based on their normal routine and your specific instructions. In a client’s home, I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, leashes and harnesses are properly fitted, and pets are supervised during potty breaks and playtime. I keep feeding schedules consistent, refresh water, and keep the space clean (including litter boxes). I’m also mindful of things like heat, sidewalks, and outdoor safety on walks. I’ll send regular updates and photos, and if anything seems off—like changes in appetite, behavior, or energy—I’ll reach out right away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and birds since I was 13. Nothing professional but experienced in animal care and daily tasks for your pets! I currently work 8am to 4pm from home so I am available throughout the majority of the week, except Sundays and nights past 6 or 7pm. I have a big yard for a lot of running and I have a friendly and energetic pup that would love to keep yours company!

About: I have had dogs in my house ever since I was a small child and have taken care of them and trained them in crates, bathrooms, etc. I help friends whenever they need me to come check on their pets or keep them at my place and enjoy being around animals. I currently work 8:30-5:00 full time but I have somewhat flexible hours and the ability to work from home some weeks. Even when I am in the office I would be able to leave for a visit or two during the work day. I have a very nice common area and will be happy to walk your dog as much as they need. I also have a 7 month lab pup named Rico who is the best boy and would love to play with your pup. He has been great with other dogs so far but can be a little hyper.

My babies and I are so thankful for her! She was able to care for them on very short notice when I was not yet home from a work trip! Will definitely have her live on them more often if she will!!

This was our first time using Rover. Graham’s drop ins for our 9 month old kitten were consistent, detailed and thorough. She provided pics and stories of her visits. This was a perfect option instead of taking kitty out of her element and placing her in a kennel. And the cost was about the same. Thank you Graham!
