“Kimmey was great! Lots of communication back and forth before and during the drop in visit. We had four dogs that needed an evening feed and break and she did a great job with all of them! Recommend for any family looking for a good pet sitter!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since for around 8 years. I started before I could drive and I would walk over to my neighbors house and feed/ play with their dogs while they were out of town. I have still continued to dog sit every once in a while when I am needed. I am a college student at Auburn University. I am also from Opelika so everyone that I have been dog sitting for in high school, I am still able to help out today. My schedule for next semester is very open and not too busy. I am also available over summer as well. I do have a goldendoodle at my parents house. She is 5 years old and loves playing with other dogs. I also have a car so I will be able to come to my clients house to take care their furry friends for as long as I am needed. Currently I live in a townhouse and would love to take care of your pets here!
“Jonah was amazing and so sweet in taking care of our Charlie! She always sent pictures of him, played with him, made sure his water and food were filled and litter box was maintained so cleanly! Highly recommend!”
“Emily was a great sitter for our boy! We were out of town during the 4th of July and all the fireworks, as well as some strong storms. She was so reassuring that Hudson was doing well, and it was so comforting for us.”

I have 3 years of experience working on the Board of Directors for cat & dog rescues, trapping abandoned cats/dogs and providing medical care and finding foster and forever homes for abandoned cats and dogs. I am currently a stay-at-home mom to 2 toddlers so I can care for pets anytime day or night and administer any medication if needed. I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, litter boxes and household safety. I have years of experience with both dogs and cats, including rescue and foster animals, and I’m comfortable working with a variety of personalities and temperaments. I’ll also send photos and updates during visits so you know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years as I have three dogs of my own, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine.

About: I’m used to pet-sitting family-friends animals of all kinds and I’ve really grown to love it! I would be happy to look out for your animals any time! I am just starting college, so I will most likely be avalible in the afternoon/evening. But feel free to reach out anyway! I can always make extra time. My dog is rarely home, since we share him with our step dad. But because we have a dog (sometimes) we have a fully gated back yard with plenty of grass, a small animal pool, and a lot of toys and treats!!! Also sustainable water and food bowls.

“Alexis was a dream to work with. We are a big family of furry creatures and both mommies were super anxious to leave the pups. But, Alexis was a champ - did two meet and greets, took really good direction, and assuaged us of any fears we had. She was a life saver in a tricky situation. AND, our animals loved her! We truly appreciate the care, professionalism, and kindness that Alexis offered our family. We highly recommend her.”
“She is so sweet to our fur baby! She is always on time and gives us great report cards of her visit. I would definitely keep using her as long as she wants to visit! I highly recommend her to watch over your furbaby!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Oak Bowery
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 434 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oak Bowery. 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 Oak Bowery. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
