“Gabrielle did a great job dropping in on our cat. Clear communication, reliable, and clearly really cares about animals. She goes above and beyond, and I highly recommend her!”
“This was my first experience with Rover. I was so worried because my regular pet sitter couldn't watch my cat for over a week. Eleanor was the perfect sitter for my Gigi. Gigi is an outdoor cat and not very needy but she does need human contact every day. Eleanor came by twice a day and fed Gigi and checked her water and gave her some love and treats... she sent pictures every visit. It gave me so much piece of mind. Eleanor loves animals and it shows. Ill be booking her again soon!”
“Christina did a fantastic job! She made sure that both critters were getting enough food (which is tough to do with my once feral cat). They had fresh water every day and clean litter boxes the entire time I was gone. I enjoyed seeing all of the daily pictures of my kitten playing and socializing after every visit. Christina will be the first pet sitter I try to book in the future!”
“Ariel was wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and the first time leaving my kitty for more than a day, so I was a little nervous. Ariel kept me updated, sent photos, and reassured me that she was doing great. Knowing she was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be using Ariel again whenever I need someone to watch my kitty!”
“Leslie was absolutely wonderful. My standards for pet care are extremely high, and she exceeded them in every way. She was attentive, reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural understanding of animals. My dogs were calm, happy and very well cared for. It is rare to find someone who combines professionalism, intuition, warmth and true animal understanding so naturally. I would trust Leslie again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care.”
“Tierney is reliable and does a great job taking care of our cat. We especially love the pictures she attaches to his Rover card. It's a peace of mind knowing she's looking out for him and we appreciate it so much!”
About: Hello I have been caring for family dogs since I was 15 between walks, training, and dog sitting. My goal is to make sure your dog is will taken care of and happy. My schedule is very open currently so until that changes I am more than capable of caring for fur babies. So until that changes here we go! I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs from a Yorkie Siberian Husky and Ratterrior. We let them out every 2 hrs of the day and keep them on a good food basis. Making sure they are comfortable and protected in the environment they are in. Which is my goal in a client's home making sure the dogs feel safe around me and comfortable.
“Allie is super caring and our fur babies love her. She took great care of them. She kept on schedule with the drop ins and communicated every day. Give her a call you won't be disappointed. Thank you Allie!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for the last 8 years! I love to take them on walks and my favorite thing is to teach them new tricks! I am working full time Monday through Friday but I get off at 3:30 everyday so I have more than enough time to take you pet of a late afternoon walk! I am unable to watch pets in my home as I live in an apartment and my dog is a rescue who has some trouble getting along with other pets than my own
About: I’ve had a dog since I was 5. At one time I even had 5 dogs. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages from puppies to seniors. I’ve also had all sizes of dogs from small to X-Large. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to pet sit. I’m available week days and weekends. Whenever you need me to drop in on your pets. If you have a fenced yard I can supervise and play with your fur baby outside. If not I can walk your baby on a leash.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I also offer cat sitting services for any cat moms and dads. My home has always been filled with dogs, and I currently care for multiple of my own, so I understand the importance of providing consistent, loving, and reliable care. Over the years, I’ve fostered numerous dogs, helping them adjust, build confidence, and find their forever homes. That experience has taught me how to work with dogs who have different temperaments, energy levels, and specific needs. I’m also comfortable administering daily medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays happy and healthy. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, exploring the neighborhood, or curling up for snuggles, I’ll tailor their care to match their routine. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own. You’ll also receive regular updates and plenty of photos, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having fun. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! I am free most weekends and would love to add a Rover visit to my Friday afternoon, Saturday, or Sunday! I am available from early morning to around 8pm. I am comfortable leash walking, back yard play time, or even just relaxing. Your pet’s needs are catered to your requests and what your fur baby needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ranging from kittens to 16 year old. I love seeing all the different type of personalities they have. I’m currently working part time- I do school one day a week the rest is online but other than that I am an open book. Taking them on walks daily, make sure they have enough outside time, but also get play time inside in the air conditioning. Fun, play and enjoy
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds, dogs, cats, horses, cows, you name it, since I was little on my grandparent’s farm. I can get along with them all, from high energy to couch nappers. Going on walks or runs is something I do often with my pit mix, so I welcome that as well! I am currently a senior at Troy and interning at a school. I am free on weekdays after school hours and some weekends. On weekends I am not in Troy, I will be around the Dothan area. With an extensive pet care background, I am big on doing whatever your pet feels comfortable with. I know personalities can vary, so I try to accommodate how I interact with them based on that.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Houstonville
Eleanor was simply amazing! From the moment we met her, I felt completely at ease leaving our pets at home in her care. She was incredibly kind, thorough, and attentive, providing updates, detailed check-ins, and lots of pictures throughout our time away. Seeing those photos and knowing our pets were happy and well cared for brought us so much joy and peace of mind while we were traveling. It is clear that Eleanor genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes above and beyond to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. I would wholeheartedly recommend Eleanor to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
I just returned home from a 2 1/2 week trip. I took a chance on Almeda because there was just something about her profile I liked - in glad I did. I've never used a sitter service before and Almeda made the process easy and assured me she would take wonderful care of my fur babies and she did just just that. She communicated with me the entire time and she even went about and beyond when asked to do so such as bringing in my mail because I completely forgot about handling that before I left! I definitely look forward to using her in the future and would highly recommend her for taking care of your fur babies!

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 sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
