“Jessica was lovely with our cat! Everything went perfect, she was so attentive to the care that our baby needed in the drop in visits during 3 days! Smooth proccess and communication. We recommend her and for sure look for her again to visit our cat!”
“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.”
“I trust Katie completely to care for our cats, Lila and Riley. She goes above and beyond to make sure that their needs are met and that they receive special attention during each visit. Her passion for animals is apparent as she loves my pets as is they were her own. Katie also communicates promptly after each visit keeping me informed of their care. We have trusted her four times and thanks to Katie, my husband and I will be able to continue traveling in our retirement.”
“Jennifer is the best!! We felt at ease for the entire duration of our trip away. Our babies, 5 year old dog and 4 month old kitten, were well fed and played with. We will definitely be requesting Jennifer’s services in the near future!!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since before I can remember, family and family friends relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and petsit their dogs knowing I loved it! I’ve worked with all size dogs and all personalities! I’m currently a college student so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup! I have classes for 2 hours out of the day on weekdays but open availability after 12pm and I’m completely free on weekends! I prefer to care for pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar environment. I stick closely to your pets usual routine so everything feels normal while you’re away! I will make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise! I also will send regular updates and photos if wanted! My overall goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy and loved!
“Was able to do two last minute drop ins for me when other plans fell through. Was very responsive, flexible, and kept me very well informed. Was even kind enough to clean up after my dogs when they made a mess. Would recommend her to anyone!!!”
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.
About: I am the Lead Animal Technician at a local no kill animal shelter, I've dedicated my career to understanding and nurturing dogs and cats. My hands-on experience in animal behavior analysis equips me with the insights needed to ensure that each pet receives the tailored care they deserve. In addition to my professional background, I regularly pet sit for friends and family, further enhancing my skills and reinforcing my love for all creatures, big and small. I’m committed to providing a safe, loving environment where they can thrive. With a deep understanding of animal needs and behaviors, I’m here to ensure your pets are not just cared for, but truly cherished. I do currently work full time at a local no kill animal shelter. I am available most Wednesdays and most weekends all day. Also available in the mornings before work, hour lunch break, and anytime after 4pm. I do have a fenced in yard with a dog door that goes into a screened in porch. I do not have any pets of my own!
“Leah took the best care of our kitties!! She really is a kitty whisperer and sent us plenty of updates and pictures. We will be using her again for sure & appreciate her so much!”
About: My name is Lexie and I’m a huge animal lover. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always had pets in my home. Currently I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and I consider them my babies. I also have 2 children who love animals. We will treat your baby like our own. I’ve hired pet sitters to take care of my animals while I’m away so I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for your fur babies. They will be in good hands with me. Going on walks, playing fetch & giving a good tummy rub are some of my specialties. My dogs are older so I’m well trained in the art of hiding medicine in treats if needed. Also, during each visit with your pet, I’d be happy to text a picture or video to keep you updated on your pets happiness :)
Houstonville cat parents share their Rover experiences
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!
