About: What sets me apart is that I am patient, caring, and treat every dog like they are my own. I’m attentive to their individual needs and routines, whether they’re energetic puppies, playful adults, or sweet senior dogs. I’m also dependable and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. 🐶❤️ Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m responsible and flexible, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while they’re in my care. For boarding I provide a clean and comfortable space, regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. For daytime walks and check-ins, I make sure your pet gets exercise, bathroom breaks, food if needed, and some love and companionship. I also have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your fur baby. 🐶❤️
About: I have loved dogs all of my life and have always had one. I connect with any and every dog that I come across. When you are away I want you to have the peace of mind that someone that cares is taking care of your dog. Your dog is apart of your family, and I will treat it like that! I am able to walk all sizes of dogs, and have experience with many large breed dogs. I prefer to take care of bigger dogs, because that is what I love to do. I have experience with labs all the way up to Great Danes (my favorite)!! I currently own a Great Dane who gets along with any dog. I work full time during the week, but am home most weekends. When I am home, 100% of my times will be devoted to your pets. I have a fenced in yard that is .5 acre. Dogs will have plenty of room to run out energy. Dogs are allowed on furniture.
“Logan was really good with our Mimo. She was patient with her and within a day Mimo was comfortable in her care. She sent plenty of pics of her as well. We would love to use Logan's services again if she is available.”
“Tugba was wonderful. This was the first time using her and things worked out really well. I really like that she wanted to meet before the boarding date to get to know our dog. I would highly recommend her and plan on using her for future boarding.”
“Mikayla was wonderful. She was very professional. She was always timely in her response and made sure to update with commentary & pictures on how my baby was doing! She was also very flexible and willing to compromise to the best of her ability. I will definitely be a returning customer. If you’re wanting someone who will treat your fur baby like their own, without any worries or concerns, Mikayla is the person you’re looking for. 10/10 would recommend ✨”

About: I have professional animal care and veterinary clinic experience, which allows me to confidently care for pets of all ages and needs. I’m experienced with senior pets, medication administration, anxious animals, kittens, puppies, cats. I’m attentive, patient, and detail-oriented, and I always treat pets like family. I’m currently working full-time at a vet clinic, but I have plenty of room to work with. I am trying to lift up my pet sitting business around this area and soon hopefully I will have enough clients so that I can study while I am in vet school. If you message me about pricing and scheduling and letting me know what exactly you need, I will make sure to make it work. I treat the animals that come into my home like my pets, and I treat the animals. I take care and owners home like it is mine, so you can be reassured that everything will be taken care of and you can be at ease when you do boarding in your own home with me. I also include cleaning an errands.
“Taylor was fantastic with Zeke, and a big help to my spouse and me, as we requested her at the last minute! Zeke and Taylor’s dog instantly played well, and he even enjoyed her cats! I received daily updates and pictures from Taylor, which made me happy to know he was having fun and doing well, as this was the first time being kept by someone other than family. Thank you so much, Taylor, for a great experience!”
About: I’ve had many animals throughout my life and know that caring for them is my passion. I recently lost my Australian shepherd so this will be filling the void! I’m currently going out for maternity leave at work so my schedule is very open to all the fur babies. Size and breed are not an issue I have a fenced in back yard if that’s what your baby is needing. If they are inside then they are welcome to be a furry couch potato!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Opelika
Laura is an absolute sweetie and my lil Tux the Yorkie fell in love with her! She does an amazing job communicating and sending updates (with photos)! I felt completely comfortable leaving Tux in her care. It’s so nice to not have to worry! We have used Rover over 10 times and I feel Laura has done the best!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leif & Dani were wonderful with our pup, Bruzer! They sent updates and pictures every day and kept us in the loop throughout his stay. That gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We really appreciated their care and communication and would happily book with them again (and already have booked them for December). Highly recommend!

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 .

Many sitters in AL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
