“Erica was amazing! She knew how special our babies were and sent messages accordingly. She put our minds at ease! Definitely recommend if you are in the Gulf Shore area!”

“Bethany has been our dog walker for a few months now and our mini Aussie loves her. We met her at our house before her first walk and she is so friendly and sweet! We always feel sad when we have to leave him locked up on days we work, but we know he loves it when she comes over and takes care of him! We are so lucky to have found her!”

About: I have a deep love and passion for dogs and cats. I have had dogs my entire life, and always had at least one in my house. I currently have three dogs. I have experience working in animal hospitals where I dealt with dogs of all different sizes, ages, and behaviors. I fed dogs, kept their water bowls full, played with them, walked them, etc. I have experience with all types of dog breeds and temperaments. Cats as well! I can also administer medicine if needed. I truly love animals and treat them with kindness and gentle parenting! I die of cuteness for literally animal I see. I moved here in August 2023 and have worked at an animal hospital since, and now I am currently in grad school and I am doing Rover to make some extra cash between classes! I will fit in caring for your pet when I have time between working. Using this for when I have that down time! Either way your pet will be my priority when you book with me. Your pet's safety is absolutely my #1 priority. Our pets are our family and I treat them as I would treat someone's child. We can work together to determine how to best keep your pet happy and safe with me.
About: Dogs have a special place in my heart. Growing up, we had a total of 6 dogs in our home! They were family to us. I have bottle fed some, helped some cross the rainbow bridge and saved my rescue, Peanut from the worst case of mange I have ever seen and today she’s the happiest, healthiest girl around! All dogs deserve a home, warm bed and to know what it’s like to be loved! I currently work in a remote position from home which has just been a blessing to be able to be home with my fur babies all day. I now have the time to love on you fur babies when you can’t be there to! I am experienced to work with almost any kind of animals you have! Rabbits? Had those! Chickens? Yep! You name it, I can just about bet you I have experience caring for them!

About: Hello! I’m a nurse who just moved away from cold winters in KY. Looking for side hustles so I can stay home and enjoy this gorgeous weather. Hire me :) Your dog will have the best time! With the exception of a few non-negotiable times (church and school pickup), I have a flexible schedule! Let me know what times are best for you and we will make it happen. As a nurse, I am well versed on following care plans and special instructions. I will stick to your schedule and preferences for your pet.
About: I've been pet sitting for 8+ years now, beginning when I was asked by a family friend to pet sit/house sit for a few weekends when I was 18. While I had been babysitting almost my entire life for both my immediate family and family friends (I am the oldest child of 3 sisters- so you could say I was born for this haha), pets were new to me. This didn’t stop me, however, and immediately, I was IN LOVE!! Her babies became my babies & I’ve never stopped loving each and every animal I have come into contact with since! I have cared for both big and small animals with no love lost in between. I grew up with 3 rabbits in the house who we let roam freely, a bearded dragon, a bird, a dog, and several outside cats! I also now have 2 (inside) cats of my own who I treat like my children. I understand the value and necessity of having a good sitter who you can trust and who is reliable. I am trustworthy, patient, responsible, and the best pet sitter for you! I hope to talk to you soon. :) I am currently available at all hours to take care of ALL of the fur babies! Seriously - I am honored to take care of them! The best thing about me is that I PAY ATTENTION! I am extremely attentive and I will care for your pet as if they are my own. To me, pets are not just animals, they are truly a member of the family so you can trust me to provide your loved one the care that they deserve. I am observant and thoughtful, so your fur baby is in good hands with me. Let me know if you have any questions or preferences because I am more than willing to help. :)
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.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! Friends and family have relied on me to care for their pets if a trip has come up, or if they need someone to be there for their pup for an only a few hours. I have experience with dogs of all types of energy levels—from energetic puppies who require structure and play to senior dogs who want a calm, cozy environment. I’m 100% dedicated to your dog’s wellbeing and happiness while you’re away! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your fur babies! I’m available mostly during the week and sometimes during the weekend. Because every dog is different, I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and tailor my approach to them so that I may give them the best care possible. I follow all my clients requests and schedules closely to make sure your pets feel comfortable and happy. I also take any feeding schedules, medications, crate time, and/or special routines very seriously because consistency is what matters for your dog’s wellbeing. Clients are also updated with messages and photos, so you never have to wonder how your dog is doing!
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets other than cats and dogs. Caring for your pets will be an honor, as I would care for them as if they were my own I currently do not work, therefore I have plenty of free time to help take care of your pets if you havea busy schedule and I will not have to rush. I have a fenced in yard and am home all day to provide lots of attention and play time as well as potty breaks. This also allows me to abide easily by a feeding schedule and I can give extra comfort to pets with high anxiety.

My family has also fostered almost 30 dogs with various temperaments, needs and ages. With my unique combination of medical knowledge, hands-on experience and dedication, your pet will receive expert care and loving attention. I have a very flexible schedule.

About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals. I have a love for big and small! Ever since I was 11 years old and received my very own fur baby our house has never been empty of one. We treat our animals like they are family and I will care for yours the same way! I an a SAHM so I am mostly free!

About: Hello ! I just moved here from Virginia, and I want to tell you a bit about me. I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Always playing/taking on walks, feeding them, and giving cuddles. As a dog mom of two K understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your babies while you’re away. I regularly dog sat for a yellow lab and shih tzu in VA, and since moving here I adopted a second dog and i have been walking/doing drop in visits for other dogs near me, as seen in pictures ! I am a stay at home wife, so I’m available pretty much anytime. I do like getting my own pup at least an hour of play before leaving but that will be no issue I make sure I play with the pups very frequently, especially when I first get there and before I leave. I make sure to take them on 1-2 40 minute walks depending on how long i’m watching them for. One walk after they eat and one walk later on. I can brush them, feed them, play in the yard with them, etc.

About: I have experience in long term pet sitting, senior dogs with medications, and can handle multiple dogs at once. I am clean, friendly, and very detail oriented. I am currently working part time as I get ready to move! I am pretty much always available for early mornings, late nights, and weekends! I am very organized and detail oriented. I care a lot for pets and can follow instructions easily. I am very patient, kind, and will leave your home in tip top shape after :)

About: My name is Casey. I have been working with dogs professionally for about a decade in Washington state. Ran a small boarding and training business in WA. Trained hundreds of dogs with their owners in sport, obedience, group classes, service, and behavioral modification. Me and my family are moving south to the Mobile area and I am exited to start working with dogs again in a different area and meet all the new personalities the dogs have! Currently waiting on our permanent residence. We will be buying in the mobile area within a month or 2 with acreage but our current rental may not allow boarding but I can still do private training sessions and house/pet sitting. Will update this as soon as everything is set up! Kennels will be spaced apart, all dogs with behavioral problems like anxiety or reactivity will have their own quiet area. All the social dogs will get to play during the day. Every dog gets 1 on 1 time and there will be a fenced yard to rotate dogs throughout the day.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals through pet sitting, overnight stays, dog walking, farm sitting, and veterinary care experience. I have cared for pets with a wide range of needs and am comfortable caring for anything from one pet to households with five or more dogs at a time. My experience includes feeding, walking, bathing, brushing, hand-feeding when needed, and administering medications according to an owner’s instructions. My veterinary care experience has also helped me become comfortable with pets who may need a little extra attention or a more specific care routine. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets and your home. I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely and keep pets as comfortable and consistent with their normal routine as possible. Whether your pet needs walks and playtime, lots of attention, or simply someone dependable to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide care based on their individual needs. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, with my work hours falling between approximately 8 AM and 6 PM depending on the day. My schedule varies from week to week, but I am still very flexible with pet care and am happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, recurring care, and house sitting. For house sitting, I am happy to stay overnight and care for your pets before and after work, as long as they are comfortable being home during my work hours. I am also available on weekends and will always be upfront about my schedule so we can make sure your pet receives the care and attention they need. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet. I treat every animal and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty routines, and any special care needs. I have experience administering medications, hand-feeding when needed, and caring for pets with different routines and needs. Safety is always a priority, so I am careful with doors, gates, leashes, and any specific instructions you provide. I also love sending photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and being well cared for.

About: There’s not a pet in the world I’ve met that I didn’t get along with. Lots of experience with senior dogs and specialized diets for dietary restrictions. Certified medical assistant so broad medical knowledge that helps with animals as well. Right now, I’m flexible to do a lot of different services. I work in central Pensacola and can stop in for potty breaks and short walks during the work day and can do overnight stays if needed. I respect my client’s home, space, and furry family member. I was raised by military parents that instilled very good morals and values in me.

About: Hi! I’m from the southern states and love beach walks and keeping active! I’d love to walk your pup! I have puppies of my own back home and could use some pup snuggles/walks! I have plenty of time to work around your schedule! I’d love to pick up some walks daily. I love closing my Apple Watch rings😁 so daily walks are a must for me. Even better with a doggy! I don’t prefer to do over nights or in my home since I don’t have the friendliest environment for a dog. However, I would love taking them on walks.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gulf Shores. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
