“10/10 recommend Lisa for any pet watching needs. She was beyond amazing with our 4 while we were gone. Kept them plenty fed and loved on them in our absence, plus kept us updated daily. I’m already looking at the calendar and checking availability for our next mini trip.”
About: Hello! My name is Katherine, but you can call me Alex (less formal and easier to remember) I've been around many kinds of pets all my life! Dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even some fish and I have always treated them with the highest amount of care and respect! So no matter what, you can trust that I will love, care for, and respect your pets as much as you do I don't have a job currently, so I'm pretty free up all the time. I can't do boarding or care at my residence, but I can do whatever care you need at your home. I can do whatever is needed, feeding, watering, walking, brushing, nail trims, baths, sneaking in the cheeky pill for the stubborn dog or cat. Basically any care you need from me, I can do.
“Renee was absolutely wonderful with my little pooch toby! She communicated very well, was flexible with drop-ins and was extremely sweet! She sent the best pictures of Toby throughout the week and brightened my week! I would definitely book her again for any other out of trips I I have”
“She has been the best thing my fiancé could’ve asked for when it comes to making sure our babies are taken care of. Whether it was the dog, cat, or sometimes both, she showed them the same love and care we show them. I wish there was more I could do to show my appreciation for everything she’s done. Booking rovers for sitting, walking, or just drop in visits is not cheap, but knowing our babies were in safe hands while we were gone is priceless. Thank you Charsy!!”
About: My goal is to gain more hands-on experience caring for large dogs. I've been around large breeds throughout my life, as many of my friends and family have owned them. I'm already comfortable interacting with bigger dogs and have experience walking, feeding, and helping care for them. I'm excited to build on that experience and become an even more confident and knowledgeable caregiver. I’m currently working part time in Little Rock, and I’m also a full time online college student. My schedule will be flexible enough for me to look after your dog for a day or two! When I’m with your dog, they are my top priority. I will keep an eye on them and keep them company at all times, and of course give them all the love they deserve.
About: I have taken care of many rescues puppies to seniors that need extra care throughout my life. From my own to friends and families pets as well. I work part-time as a personal trainer with a flexible schedule that lets me be home when I need. I still have pets of my own so I schedule around them. I have a fenced yard and two dogs of my own so your pet doesn’t have to be alone. We are also close to a park for walks. I also have kennels if your dog prefer a safe space for themselves.
About: I’m a college student in Health Sciences, so I have an intense care of others and animals. I ensure all humans and animals are loved and feel safe! I’m a college student who works part time, I’m always in Central Arkansas majority of the days. I tend to linger in Conway, Little Rock or Cabot. I will play with your little furry friends and cuddle with them. Tend to their needs. I will also send pictures of them because who doesn’t want cute pictures of their furry friends!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. The availability I have is on weekends and after 4 pm on weekdays, available holidays. Stay overnight and accept long-term stays (longer than one week). I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oppelo is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 205 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oppelo. 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 Oppelo. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
