About: I have had dogs my entire life, starting to seriously take care of my first dog when I was 10. I’ve worked at several animal related jobs, such as a dog daycare, a pet store, and I worked on a farm for several months in 2021. I have petsit for neighbors and friends for years. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I love dogs deeply and know how to work well with them. In addition to dogs, I have lots of experience with cats, rodents, reptiles, fish, birds, and I can take care of your plants while you’re away too! I’m currently a part-time student at UAB and I work part-time at Breakout Birmingham. My schedule is relatively flexible as long as I have enough notice to make any adjustments or accommodations! I have my own car and am more than willing to make multiple trips a day. I have lots of housesitting experience and will respect your space and do anything else you need taken care of while you’re gone. I will take care or your pets wherever they’re most comfortable and make sure they have fun and feel safe.

“Amy is so amazing! She was open and available to fulfill my requests. She will be my "go to" sitter when I can't get friends to watch my pup.”

About: I truly enjoy creating a calm, loving environment where your animals feel at home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own:) Currently a third year medical student at UABHSOM who is always looking for a furry friend to be around and take study breaks with! I love incorporating walks, playtime, and rest into my daily routine with the pets I take care of. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible! I want to take the time to learn yours and your pet’s preferences and give them the care they deserve while keeping your life stress free!

About: I’m a very conscientious, non-smoking, animal loving and trust worthy pet caretaker. I understand how much commitment and dedication it takes to watch over your precious fur babies. I take great pride in feeding, walking, watering, playing, and showing endless affection to your pawsome fur babies while they are away from you. Just tell me what to do once and I’m great at following directions. I’ll be glad to keep you updated with pictures throughout the visit. Some services I offer include the following but are not limited to dog walking, dog bathing, dog sitting, checking up on your dog/puppy through out the day or staying the night and making sure your pup doesn’t even realize your gone. I am a stay at home mom with no other limitations, which means I’m at your disposal. I’m so excited to meet and care for your fur babies! .....I’m also not limited to just dogs and cats. I have experience with horses, goats, chickens, pigs, and all reptiles/invertebrates. Hey I know the last thing you want is picking up a stinky dog after a long vacation. I offer additional services like bathing your dog + $15 Teeth brushing ear cleaning and nail clipping + $10 Deshedding or brushing + $5 Let me know if they have allergies so I can use hypoallergenic soap. These services are not limited to boarding I can do them for doggy day care or if you want me to pick them up and bring them home clean for an additional $15 I can do as well. Me and my husband work together by tag teaming. I work from about 9-4 and he stays home with the kids and helps care for the dogs in my care while I’m away. I get up early so they will be taken out 2 times before I ever leave for work When I care for pets in my home or someone else’s, I make sure they have fresh water, healthy food, and a clean, safe environment at all times. I always follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules and any medical routines like giving medication. I spend quality time with the pets by playing with them, grooming them, and giving them attention so they feel loved and comfortable. I also pay close attention to their behavior and watch for any signs of stress or illness, and I communicate any concerns right away. Most importantly, I treat every pet with kindness and respect, just like I would with my own.

About: I have owned two dogs, a cat, and a few fish back home in California. I have had experience with clipping nails, giving fluids, cleaning litter boxes, and the such. I am a medical student and have extra time throughout this semester! I have been missing having a pet of my own, so being able to take care of your precious animal would mean so much to me! I have an apartment of my own, there are several open green spaces that allow for dogs to play and use the restroom. I do not currently have any pets so any animal I board would have my full attention.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals- dogs, cats, chickens and reptiles- since I was 10. Many family, friends and sometimes neighbors have asked me to care for their furry companions. My fall semester hasn’t started yet and I don’t have many plans for this month, so I have plenty of more time to spend with your pets! I have a big fenced yard for your baby to roam around. I also have 3 lovely dogs and 2 friendly cats to make the sleepover more comfortable.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

“There are not enough positive words to describe Rebecca. I injured my knee walking my dog in the park and it left me unable to even walk her around our yard. I had no one close by that I could turn to for help so I signed in to Rover to see if I could arrange the care she needed while I dealt with my situation. Two walkers turned me down flat and a third completely ignored me, but not Rebecca! Not only did she respond quickly and accept my bookings, she started the same day and has gone the extra mile and then some. She treats my dog with the same care and love that I would and the piece of mind that’s brought me is immeasurable. If you want someone who is friendly, professional and will care for your dog the same way you would there is no one else you need to reach out to. There aren’t enough people in this world like her and I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and currently have three of my own! I often watch my family and friends’ pets when they go on vacation or out of town! I don’t mind walking, playing, bathing, or giving your fur babies all the attention they need/want! I work full time M-F 8-4:30. On days I work, I can guarantee that your dog(s) go out right before I leave for work and right when I get home and right before bed. On days I don’t work I will make sure your dog goes out every atleast 3 hours with plenty of play time. At my home, I currently have 6 dogs of my own that are crate trained so if your dog(s) aren’t too fond of other dogs I can keep them separated. I prefer pets to be crate trained so if I have to leave the house they can be put up to ensure they don’t get into anything but it’s not a deal breaker if they aren’t. I can feed, water, and give medicine if need be based on your pets needs.

About: I've grown up around all sorts of pets all my life. My dad always brought around ex police dogs to train and multiple foster animals. Right now I take care of 3 donkeys, 4 goats, 2 pigs, around 30 chickens, 2 roosters, 2 cats, and 5 dogs including two French bull dogs, two large Belgian malinois and a medium sized mutt whenever I go back home. I also help train our dogs back at home in agility training, and overall love spending time with my animals. I'm currently working as a student 4 out of the 7 times a week with no classes Saturday through Sunday and finishing classes by 12:30 to 2 pm any other day. So I have a very flexible schedule to come pet sit the animals. The only time I cant pet sit is on Fridays from 6-10 because of Powerlifitng practice. Any pet that I will care for I will treat as my own. When I go out of time and have to hire somebody to come pet sit I want them to care for my animals as if they were there own. Making sure the pet has enough water, catches its breath after playing or walking outside, and is all settled down before I leave.

“Meredith helped me have peace of mind today by agreeing to stay with my sick pup while I had to go to work. She kept me up to date with how she was and even went out of her way to pick up medication from the vet, administer meds, and feed my pup. She also took care of my other two dogs' potty and loving needs while there. I'm so thankful!”
