“Morgan did a great job taking care of our elderly dogs! It was a bit of a last minute trip so we were grateful she was available for a holiday weekend. When we got home the pups were happy and the house looked as if no one had been here. Highly recommend!”
“I had to hire Peter at the last minute after my other sitter wasn't a good fit. All I can say is everything happens for a reason. Peter was so attentive and caring to my senior pup, it was night and day from my previous experiences. Peter checked in and followed all my care instructions and went above my expectations. I will definitely use his services again!”
“Ryan did a fantastic job with my "needy" crew. This was the first time using Rover and having a house sitter and Ryan did everything to make me feel comfortable and really enjoy my time away. He stayed in great communication, even during the storms we had while I was away. He took great care of my pups and the house. Will look forward to using Ryan again!”
“She was very good with communicating to me how my dog was doing with daily activities and pictures. House was clean and tidy. Good care for my dog. Recommend using her!”
“Sara is truly a great sitter. She took very good care of my senior dog. I told her and he showed her all of the issues that he has and she handled them with great care which put me at ease. I'll definitely be using her again.”
“Kyleigh did such a wonderful job watching the dogs! She left our house clean, even stripping the bed for easy washing. We came home and it was felt like we had just left! We’re so grateful for her taking care of our babies!”
“Deby was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover, so it took a bit to get used to at first, but it was so wonderful. My partner and I usually ask our friends to watch our two kitties, but no one was available. I saw that Debt had a ton of repeat clients and great reviews and I see why! She sent videos of them every time she came over and put my mind at ease even though I desperately missed my boys. Highly recommend booking her if you want someone who is wonderful with communication and loves all animals she watches!”
“Arianna is very reliable and communicative! She gave us frequent updates on our kitties and sent good photos. She also helped with information for an unexpected emergency vet visit (recurring illness with one cat) after we returned from our trip! She is friendly and helpful and a great cat sitter!”
“I highly recommend Ronda Lynne! She took amazing care of our two dogs, keeping in regular contact, sending lots of photos, and making sure they got lots of love while we were gone. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were not only safe but truly happy. When I came home, I could tell they were relaxed and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and absolutely wonderful with pets, Ronda Lynne is the one. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Growing up with cats, dogs, and a turtle, I’ve always been an animal lover. Animals are my happy place. I have years of experience with lots of different temperaments and needs. From puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats, the wild and excited, the shut down, scared or nervous, to everything in between. I am currently available weekdays and weekends for walks, playtime, and house sitting that meet your pets needs. I am also able to come for repeat walks/playtime during the day. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio where my dog loves to sunbathe and take in the scenery. We go on potty breaks and walks by leash with lots of sniff breaks (her favorite). In your home, depending on the style, I can play or supervise inside and outside fenced in play time. I will also take dogs on walks depending on your preference. I also love to give a treat after a good walk or playtime! Potty will always be picked up and dissuaded on walks. If waste needs to be cleaned during back yard time please let me know, I’m happy to keep your yard clean!
About: I have always had multiple dogs in my home. My family has a love for rescuing dogs so we have taken in and fostered numerous dogs in the past. I cared for many dogs while in Tuscaloosa for college. I have since moved to Birmingham and become a NICU nurse! No matter what your baby needs, I’m here!! I am a full time nurse so my schedule varies! I typically work 3 days a week, so depending on the week I will be available different days! I love to be active and love to run around with energetic dogs as well as give love to the cuddly dogs! I base my approach based on the dogs needs, every baby is different!
Hoover pet parents share their Rover experiences
She is always so responsive and great with our babies! 100% recommended for anyone who wants peace of mind when you're away and want someone to take care of your house and pets like they were her own. Everything was clean and the dogs were well cared for. Absolutely nothing negative to say. She's great!
Hayden provided our two pups EXCEPTIONAL care while we were gone on a 5 day trip. Our senior dog requires medications multiple times a day, and Hayden was able to administer them all with no issue!! She kept us updated with photos throughout our whole trip, it gave us such peace of mind. I can’t recommend her enough!!! We are so grateful for her & know our pups love her just as much!
Peter did great house sitting with both of our dogs. He was right on time for the meet and greet beforehand and asked good questions. He was very communicative and responsive while at our home, giving us updates. He took great care of the dogs and took them on daily walks which they loved. Would book again!
Joy stayed with our sweet dog, Scout on Thanksgiving evening. I had given up hope of finding someone to stay with him.. Scout has separation anxiety and can not be left alone. Joy came to the rescue and Scout really liked her right away. She text me pictures of Scout with updates on how he was doing. In one of the pictures I could see that she was sitting on the floor next to Scout and he looked so relaxed and happy. I really thought that was so sweet! Joy was so attentive to Scout and sweet to him. I would love for her to stay with him again!
Sarah Katherine was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our pups, cat, and home! One of our dogs had some stomach issues while we were away and Sarah Katherine went above and beyond looking after him and made sure he was okay. She was communicative and incredibly sweet. We were thankful to have to her stay with our pets!
Stephanie and Jax are amazing! She was so gracious and flexible to come watch my pups last minute. She took such good care of our home and pups which eased our minds while we were away! She went above and beyond more than she needed to - even vacuumed our house for when we got back! Definitely will book again! :)
Danielle was a superstar for our dog Maddie! She managed a 10 day house sitting job perfectly! Dog walks got done per Maddie's usual schedule, and she made sure Maddie got lots of attention. We got pictures and comments daily. Our home was left in perfect condition—Danielle washed the sheets and towels she used and the kitchen was spotless. She even notified us of an unexpected window leak during a heavy rain and took care of maintaining the mess so no worse damage was done. This was a winning situation for us to have peace of mind while away and for Maddie to feel secure during our absence too. We will definitely book her again as a need comes up—and refer her to anyone looking for loving, reliable help.
Mollie was a GREAT caretaker for our 140 lb. Scout and 14-year-old Sierra. She has a great calm presence and we felt very confident leaving our two dogs with her for 7 days. Our big dog never made her nervous and Sierra came out of her shell with Mollie. Why didn't we ever do this before. Mollie took good care of them and all their little quirks, as well as gave them medicine for their old age issues. I'm sure she gave them lots of TLC, too, if the pictures she sent us were any evidence. Thanks, Mollie, for all you did for them, as well as for us, to take good care of them!
