“Megan was wonderful! She stayed in communication with us and kept us up to date on everything. She loved our babies like her own! Def recommend! She’s became a new F•R•I•E•N•D for us :)”

About: My family and I grew up with 3 dogs of our own. I also foster dogs from local shelters and have hands on experience with everything from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust with your pet, and I’m here to help with calm, dependable care. I’m currently a student at the University of Alabama with a light class load, just about 2 hours a day. This gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to pet care, whether it’s walks, dropins, or extended stays. Being from Birmingham, I’m familiar with the area and love spending time with pets when I’m not in class Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or instructions you provide and take time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. I keep a calm, clean environment and never leave pets unattended during visits. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own with patience, attention, and respect.
“Megan is a wonderful cat sitter! I loved the daily pictures she sent of my kitties. They were all well cared for and my extremely shy cat even warmed up to Megan. She’s trustworthy, which is important to me. I would definitely recommend her!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all different sizes and personalities throughout my life, especially the last 6 years. Back home I have three dogs, including 2 Labrador retrievers and a chihuahua mix rescue. I used to dog sit for my neighbors every few months, typically for a week at a time. Now that I am at college at UA, I miss constantly being around dogs and I hope to fill that missing piece through Rover! I am great about exercising, feeding on time, and potty breaks. If you have any more questions feel free to ask! I’m currently working part-time, but will have plenty of time to check in on your pups :) My schedule is usually completely free during the day up until 4pm. I also get breaks at work and can stop in to let your furbaby out! I currently live in a spacious apartment with two of my best friends that also love dogs. We have a fenced-in dog park right next to our unit! It takes less than a minute walk from my door to the park.
About: I was raised with dogs all my life - big and small!! My parents have two adorable but crazy golden doodles named Harry and Penny! I grew up with two smaller dogs as well, a cockapoo and a multipoo (Charlie and Lola). I fostered a lovable pitty mix last spring semester of 2025 named Rambo. I love dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes and ages! I am a graduate student at the University of Alabama! I will be in Tuscaloosa full time, year round. I am in a clinical program as a marriage and family therapist in training, so my schedule can sometimes be scattered. I have a full client caseload, but I have daily availability just depending on the week. I always have a few hours open sprinkled throughout each day! As the summer progresses into June, I will have much more early and mid morning availability as well. I care for pets in the home by providing lots of cuddles and love!! I want to make sure each animal feels safe to trust me and I meet them at their level of comfort. Also depending on their activity levels and lifestyle, I want to be sure to give them the proper level of stimulation needed.
“Lauren was a great kitty sitter while I was on vacation! I booked her for 30 min drop in visits to make sure my cats were happy and healthy and had enough food and water while I was gone. She sent pictures of both of my cats during her visits and included a great summary letting me know that their food and water had been stocked and if they had any accidents. I also really appreciated her offering to do a quick meet and greet before I left to show her where I keep all my supplies and familiarize herself with the cats. 10/10 I will definitely rebook with Lauren next time I need a cat sitter!”
“Jake took such great care of my pets! He was able to handle my cat, senior dog and our puppies, was such a lifesaver while I was out of town. The pictures he took are so cute too, would definitely recommend Jake watching your pets, he treated them with a lot of care.”

“Brie was excellent with Harley! She kept everything clean, made sure Harley used the bathroom, and played and got Harley’s energy out. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter! Can’t wait to book with her again!”

Northport dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mary Paige was great. We had some issues in the beginning because another person ghosted me so I was not able to introduce Millie to Mary Paige in person. Millie was a bit spooked because she did not know Mary Paige beforehand, but Mary Paige did an amazing job and I was able to finish my trip without worrying one bit. I would definitely use Mary Paige again!

Anna was very sweet and patient with our three animals. One dog was a bit hesitant the first day but Anna was incredibly patient and got the dog to love her. She stayed to play with the dogs even if it went over the 30 mins that we paid for. The pictures she sent were adorable and we will definitely use her for our next trip.

Catherine was exceptional with our doggos! We booked her on very short notice, and she was very responsive, fed and walked them (even our little senior), and sent wonderful pictures and video. They seemed super comfortable with her, and we didn’t have to worry at all on our short trip. We would absolutely book her again!
