About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals pretty much since I could walk. My family has had chickens, quail, pigs, horses, goats, guinea pigs, and of course dogs and cats! I’ve also worked as a ranch hand at a goat farm for 2+ years. Currently the only doggie I can call my own is my sweet Nala. She is a mini schnauzer who loves people and is quick to play with other pups. I currently work part time and attend college on Mondays and Wednesdays. So I can almost always sit or board Thursday-Saturday. I love walking and jogging so I’m always up for that. I’m currently in the midst of moving into an apartment with my best friend who also owns a friendly collie named Josie. And I have my sweet Nala. I will be able to board in the future but it will probably not be till September-October.
About: 👋🏼 Hi!! My name is Morgan W. 👋🏼 I want to first start out saying that animals are my life, without my fur babies I do not know how I would survive this crazy life! I recently lost my best friend, daughter and fur baby, my sweet Gracie. She was a 150 pound Great Dane and was mamas BIG baby. I have been struggling really hard with the loss of her and was scrolling on Facebook and saw an ad for Rover and thought... “ This is what I would love to do, I need this”. With all that being said, I’m so happy I found a place where I can share my love for dogs while helping out fellow pet owners! This is just a little of my story, here is a little bit more about me and few of my morals, qualities and experience⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ * I am currently working at a retail department store working about 30-36 hours a week so I am not available 24/7.. BUT I work a lot of day shifts and am available during the afternoon/night, have a few off days a week and can use my breaks to do a quick walk or “check-in”! I can work around my schedule really well! * I am 23 years old and graduated from Cullman High School. I also went to Wallace State Community College for three years. * I have two puppy dogs of my own named: Spencer and Atka🐶 ‼️ I have one year of experience as being a kennel technician at a dog lodging facility‼️During that time I: - administered medication to dogs of all ages and breeds. - Worked with dogs whom had social anxiety, separation anxiety, seizures, elder dogs, and dogs with temperament issues. * One thing I am huge on is being organized and sticking to a schedule, it just makes things way easier! * I also have over 5 years of personal dog experience ranging from the ages of 2 months old- senior age. * I love ALL dog breeds. No exceptions. * I have basic knowledge on training and can teach your fur babies basic skills! * I also can bathe and trim your fur babies nails! ‼️A few things to note‼️ - I do have dogs at my home so your fur baby will need to be okay with other dogs. - Please let me know if your fur baby likes to be alone while eating a treat or eating food so that my dogs do not disturb them while they eat. - I also prefer that dogs be up to date with vaccinations just because I do not want my dogs getting sick. Please let me know if they aren’t. - If your dog has any special needs that is perfectly fine just let me know if there are any things I need to do different to accommodate your fur baby, and I will gladly do so! ✨What I Offer ✨ * Dog sitting at your home! * Boarding at my home which includes: a fenced in area for your dogs to play, a comfy bed, healthy dog treats, tons of cuddles and daily dog walks.

Book with me and your pets may not want to come home 🤩🤩 🛑Safety is a guarantee with me 🛑 * I will make sure I take all precautions with your fur baby while out and about! * I will only walk your dog(s) In my neighborhood, which has little traffic. * I will supply a harness for walks if needed. 🐾I cannot wait to meet your sweet fur baby🐾 I do work 30-36 hours a week but my boyfriend and I work together as a team. So between the both of us, we have pretty good availability. 🅐🅣 🅜🅨 🅗🅞🅜🅔: The dogs I care for in my home are treated just like my dogs! They will get supervised outdoor time in our little fenced in area. Fence is a temporary fence until we can get one built. It is 40 inches tall. Dogs will never be let out alone. I walk the dogs at least 3 times a day. They can do as please in my home, no dog will ever be confined to a crate or a room unless I am not at home. Your dog will never be crated longer than 3 hours without a potty break. The only time I crate them is when I and my boyfriend both are at work, which is not often. They will have their own dog bed or can sleep wherever they prefer: our couch or in our bed with us 🅘🅝 🅨🅞🅤🅡 🅗🅞🅜🅔 : In your home I will follow all of your guidelines to ensure I meet your and your dogs safety needs.
About: I am a 30 year old female who loves all animals. I have grown up with animals all my life and have owned many of my own pets. I very much like spending time walking around or just sitting and gaming and cuddling with my pets. I am able to train puppies as i have owned a 3 time grand champion vizsla, though I am no professional I was just taught so i could show my dog. I enjoy spending time in the woods and or in the ocean just being about in the beauty of nature. I hope and pray to be able to meet your little or big angel because that is what a pet is an ANGEL and a beloved family member. please enjoy your day! it is my life. i do this for my job, but i do love all animals so i am more than happy to do this. im very patient and willing to just let them get to know me. i follow things to a tee that way your pet gets the care it needs
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I was a high school Agriculture and Vet Science Teacher that has taught animal and veterinarian science. I am willing to do whatever you need to make your pet feel safe and loved! My day is incredibly flexible and can make accommodations to care for your animals! Regardless of when your pet needs a visit, I can almost always make it happen! I will follow all recommendations from you on how to care for your animal. You know your buddy best, so whatever you say goes! I can walk pets in your neighborhood or take them somewhere. Totally up to you!
“Melissa is the best sitter we've had, which is saying quite a lot as every Rover experience has been good. She went well above and beyond what anyone would expect and truly cares for our dog as though he were her own. You will not go wrong with Melissa.”
“Managing a pack of four dogs is a lot of work, but Alexis did a fantastic job with our two drop-in visits! She was incredibly reliable, arrived right on time, and made sure all four pups got their necessary potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of love. The detailed updates and photo check-ins really put our minds at ease while we were away for the day. We will absolutely be booking Alexis again!”
About: I truly love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I currently have a 10-month-old Pit Bull Terrier, Lily, so I have daily experience with young pup energy, leash walks, playtime, and positive reinforcement. I also cared for my 16-year-old Maltese, which taught me the patience and gentleness senior pets need. I'm attentive, dependable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet company, I'll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, and I'll treat yours with the same kindness and attention as I would my very own! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own puppy every day, so walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love are already built into my schedule. I'm happy to plan my day around each pet's routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I'll provide fresh food and water, walks, potty breaks, medication if needed, and lots of love and attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax knowing their pet is in good hands. My goal is to care for every pet as if they were my own.
About: I've had over seven dogs in my lifetime most of which are larger breeds but also had medium and smaller dog breeds. I've also raised puppies under a year old. I genuinely love animals and I need the money as a college student. I'm currently full-time college student but my classes are remote this semester so I have all the time in the world to take care of your dogs. I'm always available unless my scheduling states otherwise. I have no other dogs at the time so it will just be me and your pups unless of course I book with others. Your dog will be taking care of with the utmost safety and joy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 463 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lacon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lacon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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 sitter.
