“I've used Lucy's service numerous times over the past year or so to check in on my two cats, often for a week or more. I have no reservations about recommending her to any one. She did a fantastic job. My male cat really took to her. My female cat, who normally hides from strangers, allowed Lucy to pet her and give her treats while still looking less than thrilled. Hire Lucy. You and your pets won't regret it.”
“Ansley is great with the cats and plays with them and shows them all the love. She goes above and beyond and even brought some Amazon packages in for us. Highly recommend, and will continue asking for her if she’s available.”

“Tressa and Blake were highly communicative, reliable and professional with me. I highly recommend them for drop in visits for your cats and dogs, and administering oral medications to your animals if needed!”
“Jessie was a huge help! I needed someone fast after moving to the area and she definitely delivered. It's very difficult to find someone willing to work around your schedule so the dogs are happy. I'm definitely going to use her again. Very professional and cares about my dogs.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I started helping my mom at a humane society when I was around 13, where we fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted. That’s where I really learned patience and how to care for animals with different needs and personalities. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life-dogs, cats, and reptiles, so I’m very comfortable with everyday care like feeding, routines, and paying attention to behavior. I also currently work in animal care and as a photographer at Wag Atl (Doggy daycare. It’s given me a lot of hands-on experience and made me really confident handling our fluffy friends. I know every pet is different, so I try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I'm very passionate about animals, I just love dogs and take their care very seriously so I would love to sit with your pets! I currently do work full time with a doggy daycare; my off days are Tuesday/Wednesday. But I am available every day of the week, as long as you are comfortable with an 8-hour workday in between care. I can stay with your fluffy friends through the night, no problem! And of course provide walks/potty breaks/playtime! When caring for my your pets I keep it similar to how i treat my own animals unless called for otherwise. I regularly take them out on walks and potty breaks, play time is a must and I like to keep a strict eye on the pet to make sure they're safe and sound at all times. I will always keep in contact with you and give regular updates in pictures of how your pet is doing.
About: Hi!! Lily here!! I am a full time teacher looking for a part-time adventure with your pet!! I have been a proud cat mama for 5 years now, having grown up with both dogs and cats. As a pet parent, I know your trust is precious. I have been entrusted over the years with many of my loved ones’ family members, including kittens, senior dogs, excitable puppies! I have experience with various levels of training as well. I know one of the most important ways to protect your pets’ peace is to introduce as little change and upset to their routine as possible while you’re away. That’s why I’m here to learn their norm and deliver it!! As for your peace, I am open to as much communication about your little one as you’d like for your reassurance- expect all the cute pet pics your heart desires!! I am a full time teacher, so my availability for house sitting is limited to the weekends but drop-in visits and walks are much more open. I’d love to be able to build a relationship with your pet over time, so reoccurring scheduling is available! Typically, I am free after 5pm until 10pm on weekdays and open on the weekend (until 10pm Sunday depending on commute). I will not be offering in-home services for the safety and benefit of your animals and mine. My bonded pair of mother and son cats are not interested in friends, sadly! So, the ball is in your court for care!! Whatever your animal’s normal is, I aim to deliver. Please give me detailed instructions upfront and be patient with any questions while I try to maintain your pet’s routine.

About: I started taking care of my neighbors' dogs at the beginning of adolescence and, since then, have owned at least 2 dogs. I worked at Petsmart as a dog bather and have participated in very basic training with dogs (mostly sit, stay, etc). I'm active duty, so my availability is mostly after 4 or 5 PM weekdays and open availability on the weekends pending any work that may fall outside those working day(s). I'm fairly open minded and will work with you on however you feel would make the environment and situation safe for your wonderful fur babies!
About: I’ve worked at a vet office with cats and dogs, pet sat for the same lady for 15+ years, 2-3 times per year. I own cats, dogs and a bearded dragon. Used to own chickens, goats and pigs. I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom, so I can fit your baby in wherever needed whether it’s dropping in once per day to ensure your cat has food and water, to going 3 times per day to let your dog(s) out. I have a fenced in yard, 2 friendly dogs and 3 cats that don’t have an issue with dogs. Water is kept down at all times of day and we have a kennel for quiet time.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Phenix City
Rebekah was wonderful to our girls! She came to visit before the scheduled time to meet them and never made me feel rushed. She was very attentive to our girls and to our wishes. She was even able to work out a last-minute appointment, which we really appreciated. I understand why she has so many repeat customers!
He was fantastic with both my little guys. He did everything as asked, is very patient and calm is a great person overall and as someone to watch your pets. I highly recommend him and would love to hire him again! Keep up the good work William! 11/10 from me!
Erica, was very nice and attentive to our little finches and outdoor cats. She was prompt on her visits and sent daily updates with pictures. She came for an initial visit several days before our trip and we felt very comfortable and confident with her experience with birds and cats. We would highly recommend her for future bookings and will be glad to use her service again! Thanks, Margaret and Andrew

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Phenix City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Phenix City is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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 614 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Phenix City. 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 Phenix City. 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.
