“Jessica was amazing & my 2 dogs & cat were well cared for while we were out of town. I have never left my pets with anyone they didn’t know before but, after meeting with Jessica & getting feedback while we were gone they were all happy & getting lots of love & attention which made our trip so much more enjoyable. She came over prior to our trip to get the run down of their schedule & needs. She took the time to answer any questions & made me feel very comfortable our pets would be well cared for. The communication during our trip was excellent & we received updates & photos. Our house was even well cared for & clean when we retuned & all pets were happy as if we were not even gone! I would highly recommend her & will use her again!”

“Raylin stayed with my dogs at our house for six days while we were on vacation. I think she did great with my pups! We would definitely welcome her back next time we need a dog sitter!!”

“It’s such a blessing to have found Alexandra. We were able to travel with no worries, knowing our Yorkies, Charlie & Joey were in good hands. She is very sweet and responsible. You can tell she truly loves our fur babies. She sent updates & pictures everyday. Will definitely rebook her for our next travel.”

“I would give 10 stars if I could! So amazing to all of my animals when she stayed in our home while we were on vacation.. She loved them as her own.. Spent so much time with each animal.. Will definitely be using her again 🤩”

“Montrez does an amazing job with my dog and I added my boyfriend's dog to the mix and it was even better! I'm so glad I found him, he's truly a Godsend and will love your fur babies like they are his!”

“Melissa was amazing!! Extremely communicative, flexible to our needs, and super reliable! Our animals (2 dogs and 1 cat) loved her, and when we got back from our trip, the house was just as clean as when we left. Would definitely book again and recommend Melissa’s services.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life. I have been with inside dogs to outside. No size scares me and have dealt with dogs that have required full 24/7 care with timed medications. I’m currently a college student looking for morning work aside from my afternoon job. If you need a home sister or someone to check in on the weekends I am your person as-well! In your home, I follow the same standards I would for my own. Your dog is my top priority whether we’re snuggling, playing fetch or tug-of-war, or enjoying a walk. I provide care with patience, attention, and genuine love, just as every dog deserves. You tell me what your dog needs and I will be there.

About: I have always had pets, ever since I was little. I know what they need. My sister is also a vet tech so there is no need to worry if something goes wrong. I am currently working a 9-5 job as a hair stylist in daphne. I work every Tuesday through Saturday. I have church on Sunday. I am off all day Monday. My dog is very spoiled. She loves to go for car rides and walks. Her favorite thing is her chuck it ball thrower. She will never pass down a treat.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. My passion and love for dogs inspired me to start a dog rescue a few years ago. Since starting the rescue, I have gained experience with dogs of all different ages, breeds, and sizes. I have also learned to handle a variety of different behavior and health issues. I have experience with aggressive, fearful, and anxious dogs. I am confident in handling just about any type of dog. I can be available most days of the week. My schedule is flexible for the most part, so I will do my best to accommodate you. While caring for your pet, I will do my best to treat them as you would. I will give them plenty of love and attention, but also be sure to set the same boundaries for them as you do. For example, if you don't allow them on the couch then I will do the same. I will also send you plenty of updates on how they are doing while I am with them.
“Carly did an excellent job house sitting and caring for our two dogs and two cats over a long weekend. Carly was responsive and professional. Would highly recommend and I intend on booking again with Carly in the future!”

About: I am a cat person through and through. I have 4 cats of my own - 2 British shorthairs and 2 rescues. I make sure to give them as much stimulation and play as possible and I’ll treat your cats as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to find sitters who prioritize cats, and too often kitty care is an afterthought. But not for me! I’ll give your babies the attention and playtime they deserve. Though I am most passionate about cats, I will make sure all the animals in your home are fully taken care of and happy while you’re away. I have experience administering medication, caring for kittens and senior cats, as well as dogs, fish, reptiles, and birds. I work as a freelance media buyer and have full control of my remote schedule. My husband and I used to travel a lot for work, and I really struggled to find quality care for my own 4 cats when we went away. As someone who has dealt firsthand with some not-so-great cat sitters, I really know what it takes to give pet owners peace of mind while away from home. My schedule is completely moldable to your needs. If caring for pets in your home is not an option, I have a spare bedroom with a window and a cat tree, window perch and toys that I have reserved for fostering cats. While I prefer to care for animals in your own home, I will happily take them in if it would be beneficial for your situation.
About: I have a dog that I love more than anything and I have been pet sitting for neighbors and and family for a couple of years. I also have my own reliable transportation. I am currently out of school for summer break so I am free now. Once school is back, I will be available in the morning before school, afternoons, and evenings. I feed and walk my dog, take her to the dog park, and give her lots of love. I’d love to get to know your pets and treat them just like my own!
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!
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have plenty of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just hanging out and giving them attention, I’m happy to match your dog’s energy and needs. You can count on me to keep your dog safe, happy, and comfortable while you are away. I am currently living in Fairhope, AL and am widely available to take care of your pup! Reach out with your individual needs, and we can make it work! When your dog is staying in my home or I’m coming to yours, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. In my home, pets get a clean, safe space, regular walks, and plenty of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and follow your care instructions closely.
“Bo is an absolute blessing to me and my babies! She stayed at my house for 3 nights and kept me updated with photos. She was very responsive. I came home to happy pets and a clean house. I would absolutely recommend Bo, the dog whisperer! We love her!!”

Houstonville pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had Melissa house-sit our three dogs for six days this month — a Lab, a Mini Poodle, and a Chihuahua. Melissa truly knows how to handle dogs. Our Lab can be a little stubborn and doesn’t respond well to someone who is too soft-spoken, but Melissa knew exactly how to be firm and confident, so she would listen and obey. While we were away, our Lab ate something she shouldn’t have, which created a bit of an emergency. Melissa handled it calmly and responsibly by immediately contacting the emergency vet and us. Following our instructions, she administered hydrogen peroxide to safely induce vomiting and help our Lab recover. Melissa is kind, dependable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She also has nearby family support available if she ever needs assistance, which gives us additional peace of mind. We are extremely picky about who we trust with our pets because they do not do well in unfamiliar environments. We felt very comfortable having Melissa stay in our home and care for our dogs because we know she is responsible, loving, and capable of handling even stressful situations. We highly recommend Melissa and would absolutely hire her again if we ever need a sitter.

Blane is outstanding!! She went above and beyond to keep our 3 cats happy and entertained and left our home in even better condition than when we left. She was so attentive and I felt very comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care. She was professional and paid attention to details. I highly recommend Blane and we will definitely hire her again. 🐈⬛💕

Daisy was a God send for us. At the last minute we had to find someone who could watch Rowdy. Daisy was available, answered promptly, very courteous and has great communication skills. We never had to worry one minute about our baby being took care of. I highly recommend Daisy for anyone's sitting needs..

Had a great experience with Brooke with my frenchie, Rocco. She sent texts and photo updates showing Rocco having fun and taking good walks. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and can tell she spent quality time with him. I will definitely be booking with Brooke again!
