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!

Robin was the perfect petsitter for my cat! She sent me photos each time she dropped by and let me know how my kitty was doing -- whether she was eating well, being playful or cuddly, etc. I was nervous at first because this was my first time letting my baby be home alone for so long, but Robin's care quickly assuaged my nerves. I would definitely book her again! :)

We can’t thank Erica enough for her incredible care of our pets over Christmas. She went above and beyond, sharing photos to keep us updated, being attentive to every detail, and caring for our sweet pups. Her reliability and thoroughness gave us such peace of mind during the holidays. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!

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.

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!

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.

About: Hey there! I’m a 24 year old student working on my Biology degree but I’ve grown up with many pets my whole life! I have two Aussie doodles at home age (male 6y and female 3y) they are always excited to meet new fur - friends. Animals are my dream passion! have plenty of experience with other dogs and love to meet and greet with fur friends! Have a big back yard with lots of space! I do walks and playtime through out the day. I’m currently available for overnight boarding, but I can also kennel if needed to separate from other dogs for daycare. If you are going out of town or need your fur baby walked you can definitely consider me as your dog’s new best friend while you are away! I always make time to send plenty of pictures and updates and will watch over your fur baby as if its was my own. Hiring me as your pet sitter will allow your pet to have the same daily routine as normal along with all the love and attention, in a good environment since things are pretty chill in my home but my dogs love meeting new friends! I do Rover part time but do have weekly walks during the days. I have a flexible working schedule and work usually only from 10am-4pm part time so I can do my best to accommodate any needs to make sure your fur-babies have the best time! I don’t usually do check in’s on pets but if you live close to my location I’m willing to work with you! I am a homeowner in a quiet neighborhood near the beach with a fenced in yard and shaded porch not to mention plenty of toys! I also have two other dogs that are very friendly with others and don’t push boundaries but I can keep them separate from your fur - babies if needed.
