About: I have had animals my whole life including exotics such as birds and ferrets. I started rescuing an array of different breeds of dogs around 3 years ago and found that it suited me well. I have a special place in my heart for animals as they have no one to advocate for them! I am a single mother of two children and we have 3 dogs of our own. 1 is a rescue and 1 is special needs plus we have a new foster! I bought a small house here in Tuscaloosa to fix up overtime and I believe we have the yard ready to allow us to be pet sitters. Feel free to contact for more details and book a stay with us! Thank You Katherine A. This is a joint team between myself and my daughter Zoey. She is 15 and is the primary caretaker of our clients animals! Thanks in advance We treat any of our clients animals as we would we would love and treat our own! There is no exception to this rule! Thanks! I work 7am-3pm and can do routine visits,in home sitting,walks etc. all I need is a schedule from my fur parents and we are set! I’m going to treat your animals with the same care I treat my own to your specifications in all of your babies needs. You tell me how you care for them and I’ll do it just that way!

About: I can take care of any and all dog sizes! I pet sit my grandma's small dogs and love to hang out with my great dane! I can take all size dogs on walks. I volunteer with animal shelters to take the dogs out on adventures! I am a full-time student, but before or after classes, I have lots of free time to care for pets! I can stop by for short or longer periods of time, and dog walks are perfect to give both of us exercise! I like to make the pet comfortable with me before doing anything else. Once the pet is warmed up to me, I'll feed them, play with them, or take them on walks. I'll always respect the home I'm in and use only what is provided for the pets.

About: I've taken care of dogs & cats for as long as I can remember. We keep our pets until they pass that rainbow bridge. I am very reliable and will always send updated photos every time I am with your pet to remind you they are in good hands. I am also experienced with large breeds and the tiniest of pets! Located in Petal, near the Library area 😊 Early mornings before school, or in the evenings are great as well. I usually sit outside with a cup of coffee in the morning so they can run around, then in the evening the door is open with free roam to come in & out. If care is done in my home we have a fenced-in covered fence backyard and two of our own dogs to play with. I also have two playful children who can play fetch for hours! If care is done in your home depending on being watched in a fenced backyard or on a leash. Your dog will be watched and given the attention they deserve.

About: Having grown up alongside my own 17 year old dog, I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. I am comfortable managing slow-paced walks and noticing any health shifts that come with old age. I am also comfortable with younger, more energetic pets. When being with pets, I don't just see an animal; I see a family member who deserves the same care I would give my own. Currently, I am a college student with a weekly routine that allows me to have full availability every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I am also available on Tuesday mornings. During the summer months, my schedule opens up completely! My approach to pet care is rooted in a "safety-first" mindset developed from a lifetime of caring for my own 17 year old dog. In your home, I prioritize security and routine, making sure your specific instructions are followed. This lifelong experience has made me an undistracted dog walker who checks for body language. Whether I am caring for a high-energy puppy or a gentle senior who needs a slower pace, I provide a patient and attentive environment where your pet’s safety is my priority.

About: I was a dolphin trainer for 7 years and have had dogs my whole life! I have experience with training animals and boarding them as well. I am a stay at home mom of an adorable 14 month old baby so I have LOTS of time on my hands. I also have a one year old puppy that I take care of as well. I live 5 minutes from the dog park and try to take my dog there daily. If I can’t make it to the park I will walk him around my apartment complex. We are a very pet friendly home!

About: I've always had dogs. I work with rescues and have experience fostering. I treat animals as if they were my own. The price for overnight (8 hours) is different than 24 hours. Prices can vary and are negotiable, let's talk! I'm home all day and have an open schedule. I can help you at anytime day, night or overnight. I can't offer boarding due to our 5 furbabies at home. With my dogs, I'm always aware of where they are and their needs in the moments, because they don't all get along. I'm great at preventing and stopping a dog fight before they can even start. I was attacked as a child and still love dogs, it's not their fault. I'm great at reading animals once I know them. Seeing my dogs so happy while on walks makes me so happy. I always check the pavement with my hand before letting my pups walk on it in the summer. I'll follow your animals dietary routine, and if allowed they will always get treats from me. I'm also always sitting and laying on the floor to be at our dogs level, so you can expect the same.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

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 Hattiesburg. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

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 .

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
