“Samantha was really great with our Cooper. She made sure to send pictures and was very open to make sure he was taking care of during her time with him. Definitely will be reaching out to her again.”
About: I am very easy going and let the pet tell me what their needs are. I dont push myself on them. I wait for them to get used to my smells so they won't be stressed by a new person. I do work full time but am able to work from home. Because of this my schedule is flexible and I can take breaks when needed to run errands and such. My home is fenced and my dogs are let out frequently as well as being taken for walks daily. My cats and dogs get frequent treats and they always have a lap to lay on.
“Sally was wonderful at letting me know what was happening with my cats while I was away. I appreciated seeing the daily photos and comments she shared about anything different or unusual about their feedings or litter boxes. I will use her again if I have to leave my babies again.”
“Tia is wonderful and kind. A big relief & a big thank you for keeping communication and photos coming in while I was away. My pets took to her immediately and I can’t say enough kind things. I’m grateful”
“Almu has been so amazing helping with my senior dog as she has emerging health issues. On this visit she tried different things to make sure my girl was eating well and healthy! I would recommend her to everyone, she will go above and beyond to love on and take care of your fur baby.”
“As always, she was OUTSTANDING, and my cat loves her 🥰 And as a bonus, we found out that Cilla is quite wary of babies. The way my Cilla was eyeing that baby carrier like “Brother eww, what is that thing?? 😒😳”. Just Priceless 🤣🤣”
About: My goal is to give you peace of mind in knowing your beloved pets are well taken care of and safe! I grew up with dogs, and I have had my own for over 15 years! I have also worked with an ortho vet specialist providing vet tech care and surgery assistance, and have given my own dogs their vaccines and medications in that practice, so if medicines are needed I can administer them. I have done drop-in visits since I was in high schools for friends and for neighbors, all of which were very happy with the regular pupdates and quality of care (both with the home and the dog!). I love dogs, and I will do everything possible to make sure they are safe and secure while I am in your home and while on walks! I always worry about my own dogs darting through an open door or slipping out of a collar or harness, so rest assured this is something I take serious precaution on! I have a safety strap that I can attach to the dog in the event a collar or harness breaks or slips off. If theres a potty accident in your home, I will make sure it is properly cleaned/sterilized and clean off the pet if necessary. I have a high standard of care for my own dogs and that extends to yours. I work full time in downtown Montgomery and am off around 5. If you need care during the week, it will be after 5 pm when I can provide it! Weekends I am available anytime. If you have a fenced in yard, I will check the gates and the perimeter every time I come by to make sure there are no new openings or places your pet could find a way out. I will supervise them the entire time they are outside, and when going in I will make sure that paws are clean and they dont track in dirt or mud! If they require a leashed walk outside, I will ensure their collar is secure and the correct fit to ensure they cannot slip out- I will also add the safety strap that hangs loose on them in case the collar breaks. If there is a harness, I will check the fit and make sure the dog cannot slip out, and then use the same safety strap to prevent escapes. I can bring my own leashes (retractable, bungee, plain) or use yours if you prefer. I also have collars and a 3 point harness I can bring if needed for the walk or visit. Any instructions you leave for feeding I will follow and make sure youre notified if any changes to their eating habits occur. I value transparency and consistency above all else, and there will never be something happening with your pet that you are not immediately informed of! In the event of an emergency, I will take your pet to their vet (if open) or the ER vet and call you as well. You will receive pictures throughout the drop in visit, notification of when I arrive and when I leave so you are never left wondering! I love taking pictures on walks as well, so you will get some lovely pictures of your pup!
“Iggy was phenomenal! Highly recommend. Took over caring for our kitten when our sitter canceled last minute. Not only went above and beyond for our sweet Boo but also checked on our salt water fish and turtles. Will be rebooking in the future!!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life; ranging from different ages and breeds. I understand the responsibility of taking care of someone else’s pet as I would only want the best for my own childhood animals. I’m an active person outdoors so I’m not afraid of walks; whether that’s downtown or on a hiking trail. I also love snuggles and indoor activities too!! I’m a graduate nursing student and taking care of animals is the exact stress reliever without all of the responsibility as I am in this waiting period. I’ll treat someone else’s home as if it’s my own. I’ll be respectful and honor the house in which I’ve been let into.
“We just moved to the area and finding Caty was such a relief! She is very attentive and was flexible when we took a last minute trip. Caty treated our old gal with so much patience and gave her all the belly rubs! We are so happy to have found such a reliable and caring person, to put our our minds at ease, when we have to leave.”
About: Lover of all breeds, I am a stay at home dog mom with lots of time on my hands to bring patience and a gentle touch to dog sitting. I am very skilled in training and flexible with time, I prioritize clear communication with pet owners for their peace of mind. I’d love to care and love on your fur babies 🐾🤍 Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I have the flexibility to dedicate my time to it. I currently have weekend availability and full holiday availability! I currently don’t have any other job and about to prioritize pet care full time. At home, I ensure my pets' safety by creating a trusting environment. I pay close attention to their needs and provide a secure space for them to eat, sleep and play. This routine and environment helps to build trust and a safe haven for them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. And recently worked at a dog kennel, so I have experience working with all kids of dogs and cats also! Right now I don’t have a job and I am available just about any time, day or night. I would like to have one day off a week and that day is Sunday but if I need to work I can! I can come to your house as much as I need to take care of your pets. I won’t have boarding services because I don’t have a fenced in yard but I can come to your house!
About: I love making sure pups of all ages are well taken care of. I have always been great with walks, baths, and tiring them out for when you get home. I am a working pet auntie so I know how hard it is to tire out babies after working all day or needs a break on a weekend. I am available all day on national holidays and weekends with enough notice. While out of the home, I am always very vigilant and am very great about keeping an eye on your baby and the surroundings. I have a pup of my own if your baby ever needs some companionship.
About: I have had pets of my own since I was little, such as dogs, cats, and rodents! I have experience with elderly dogs and puppies, as well as all ages of cats. Our family dog is disabled, so I have experience with special needs care. I love both big and small dogs, and don't have any issues with any size animal! I am a college athlete with classes from 9:30-3 and practices at 4:30 Monday-Thursday! I am completely free on weekends! I can also be available past 8 pm if needed! I will ensure your pets safety in your home or out on walks! I am very thorough in my work, so any instructions you want to specify will be followed to a T!
“Fabulous dog sitter! She communicated with me daily, sent me pictures of the dogs and accommodated to last minute changes and concerns I had. Superb! Would recommend to every dog parent out there.”
About: I worked as a veterinary technician for 8 years. Prior to that I worked in shelters and humane societies. I have a passion for animals, but unfortunately my new career is not so animal-based. I miss working with animals daily and it would be an honor to take care of yours. I have extensive knowledge in animal behavior, veterinary care and CPR. You have a peace of mind when your pets are with me. I will diligently look after them, provide necessary emergent care if needed and don't mind giving veterinary advice. I love cats just as equally as I love dogs. If agreed upon I will do nail trimmings, anal gland expressions or some light grooming duties for an additional charge (but discounted from your vet's prices!). I work Monday through Friday but telework two days per week giving me flexibility to care for your pets during the week and on weekends. I will be attentive to your pets in your home while respecting your space and theirs. I will ensure your pets routine is kept while you are away.
“Me & mace (my son aka my bulldog) were both very happy with our first-time sitter, Elisabeth! She went above and beyond on a Saturday night none the less, after GPS directed her to a home different then where I actually live (gps issue & not her fault at all) and I was unreachable until an hour later, when we eventually spoke it was well past our scheduled time however she made it work somehow & still managed to get mace taken care of, the next visit went as expected & she provided me plenty of info on mace was doing while I was away & so that comfort & piece of Mind that I get from hearing that is not the same as when we board with the vet or have friends stop by and check On him. Very happy with the service ftom Elizabeth, Highly Recommend!”

This was my first time using this service and I am GRATEFUL to have chosen Antonio. He was patient, kind, and fully engaged with my senior fur baby. Dutch does not typically gravitate to people easily but there was no barrier in care with Antonio. I will definitely be reaching out again!
We loved having Hannah take care of our elderly pup for us again. She took great care of him and cleaned up after him well. She followed our instructions perfectly and was on time and prompt with visits. Loved the photos and extensive comment card. Highly recommend !

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Montgomery stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Montgomery choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Montgomery with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
