“Ashley did an excellent job watching my dog. She sent me pictures and updates just so I would know he was being taken care of. She even had frozen carrot treats for him. I definitely recommend her and will use her servives again.”

“Abby was prompt and sent pictures of my little guy during the visit. When we got home, he was very happy! I highly recommend Abby. She is great with animals and very trustworthy.”

“Amara was the best pick for my extended international trip. She went above and beyond watching my two cats. Watering my plants and bringing in my mail without even asking her to. She is clearly a cat lover and it put my mind at ease that they were getting the TLC they needed while I was away.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I have availability on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate drop-ins, walks, and extended stays depending on your needs. I enjoy spending quality time with pets and make sure they receive plenty of attention, play, and care. I am a teacher, so in summer months, winter and spring breaks I will have quite a bit more of availability. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, routines, and feeding schedules provided by pet parents. I maintain a clean, calm environment and closely supervise pets during play and outdoor time. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of stress, and I always communicate updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Im usually off at 5 pm on weekdays but currently on leave for a short while so my schedule is pretty open for about a month.

I miss walking my dogs from home and would love to help take care of yours I’m currently a student, so although I have many classes during weekdays I have breaks in between as well as Friday through Sundays free. I always make time for my own walks and workouts but I’d love to do it with an animal! My medium sized dog uses a harness on his walks, but I have worked with all kinds of leashes before. We had our yard fenced in for play time but I have worked with dogs in parks and ungated areas.

About: Hi! My name is Amanda. I have worked in doggie daycare, worked as a bather and in the sales department! At work I got to experience different breeds, temperaments and personalities! My favorite part of my job is building strong relationships with the owners and their dogs! I also have experience dropping in homes while their owners are at work, school or out of town. When I do drop ins I have taken them on walks, picked up after them and fed them. I absolutely love working with all animals! I am known to have great communication skills, I am compassionate , and I am responsible. I pride myself in those traits and look forward to building a relationship with you and your family member! I do have a full time job working with adults with intellectual disabilities. Mon-Fri I do work from 730am-4pm. I am still available during the weekends and can also do house sitting during the days that I work! I will follow their daily routine and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. While walking them I will keep distance from other animals to ensure their safety. I will also follow all dietary needs and feeding schedules.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life, have had dogs since I was a baby. And have consistently pet sat for neighbors and friends. I’ve also volunteered at vet clinics. Right now I’m back on campus as a college student. And I’m looking for some work! I don’t have many other commitments besides school and am very flexible with pet care! Since I live in a dorm, all care is provided in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime, and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect for your home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos while you’re away!
About: Dog owner and care taker for 30 years Experience working in vet clinic Experience in multiple breed care Compassion and pet care for all who need it. I am an artist working from home so I have the time and energy to care for your pet family. Mornings and Afternoon work is available. I have a large yard and dog walk with a fence. I am in the area of many parks and paths for animals and I have the accommodations and space for crate trained animals.
About: I have worked with pups and kittys since I was little, I have done puppy training all the way to taking care of senior pets. I have had much practice over the years with all of my own furry family members and now to having a few solid clients I service on a regular basis before even joining Rover. So I love taking care of folks furry family members including my own Doberman and my sisters cat while she's gone away at college. However I work for the government Tuesday - Saturday 10:30 a.m.-7p.m. so I can be there during the mornings and I can take care of them as soon as I get off work in the evenings for feedings, potty breaks, walks, etc. Unfortunately, I more than likely will not be able to do midday potty breaks so if you're someone who works from home and let's them out frequently it probably will not work out. But if they're used to being in during the day already from work schedules then it should be a perfect fit! I take care of my Doberman pup through trainings with positive reinforcement via toys and treats. I feed him every morning and evening, taking him on walks out in the woods and letting him run wild in our big back yard.
About: Going out of town? Want to leave your pet in the comfort of their home rather than boarding them somewhere that stresses them out? Want to leave them with someone who will give them tons of TLC? Then I'm your gal! I have been petsitting for over 20 years, and I've had my own business for 15 years (Happy Tails). I have a lot of energy myself, but am also content to sit around and cuddle, so any energy dog is fine with me! I've taken care of dogs with health needs, administered many medications including insulin shots, liquids and pills, and worked with deaf and blind animals. I have owned and fostered/rescued many animals and many breeds in my lifetime. Please contact me if you're interested, and feel free to check out my Facebook page for reviews (Happy Tails QC). Thank you! As this is my full-time job, I have a lot of time daily to care for your furbabies, & I'm available 365 days a year! I care for pets in the owners home. I come by three times a day for 20-30 minutes each time. I can also do walks!
About: For the past fifteen years, I’ve been a pet sitter for my siblings and friends when they’re away or need someone to take care of their furry friends. I also love taking my own dogs for walks whenever I have a chance. I firmly believe that dogs need just as much social interaction as humans do. I’ve even taken care of senior pets who needed daily medicine and special diets. I think it’s really important to get to know a pet’s needs so you can give them the best care possible. I take my dogs for a walk every day, and I would be thrilled to include additional walks with your dog. I am also available to house and pet sit in your home, ensuring your furry friend feels comfortable and secure. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I enjoy sending updates with photos to the owner, especially when they're out of town, as I understand the worry that can arise while you're away from your pet. I have three small dogs that I walk every day (weather permitting) at my home. I enjoy playing fetch and interacting with dogs, as well as petting and snuggling with them. I will treat your pet with the same compassion and care as I do my own.
“Sierra did a great job dealing with my antisocial Sunny. She's a one person cat. When I got back she was mad at me but well fed and healthy. I appreciate the way Sierra followed my instructions.”

About: I’ve been a pet lover since I was a little girl. I’ve grown up around so many animals including my sweet horse Ace! My favorite is how every animal has their own personality, & the way they love us unconditionally without ever saying a word. I currently am working full time and going to school, but I am flexible and can find a way to fit your schedule! I am very open on weekends! I treat every animal like family and they will be in the best hands. I love meeting new furry faces and they will receive the best care!

About: I’ve been around many dogs since I was little. Even viscous ones. But no type of dog scares me. Having a cane corso for about 4-5 years got me to be aware of any type of pets. Being around cats dosent worry me. Just as long as I pay attention to signs on what to and not to do. I work full time with kids and I love pet sitting for one of my friends. But usually after work I love to be around lovely pets. I will walk your dog personally. To be honest, letting a dog out in a yard doesn’t seem like they have much freedom. Taking them on an adventure is the way to do it so they have options. Treat them the way you would want to be treated is my motto.
About: I've grown up with dogs and have taken care of them since I was in high school. I'm currently a graduate student studying Clinical Psychology at UA and have open availability to dog sit or walk/care for your fur baby! I do have a small (16lb.) King Charles Cavalier in my home. She is sweet and gets along well with other dogs! I have open availability, as I'm a graduate student at the University of Alabama ! I only have research tasks to complete so my schedule is wide open. I live in a spacious, 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment that has a deck. The local dog park in Tuscaloosa is approximately five minutes away as well!
“Carson was incredible - helped me out in a last minute situation and was a great communicator. She left extremely thorough notes and tons of photos from her drop in which definitely made me feel like Turnip was getting great care. As a recently found street dog, Turnip was nervous and Carson left notes on how she handled that - really appreciated it and her care.”
