“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.”
“As always, Rebecca is amazing. I don’t even worry when I know she’s checking in on the pups. Traveling can be a bit nerve wracking when having to leave the pups however, the pics speaks volumes. They’re just so happy when she comes… one even took a little winter plunge in the pool 😂😂😂😂”

I had dogs all my life ever since I was little, they are so precious to me. As long as your pet fur bay is with me I will treat them like the are my own ❤️ I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time with the pups.

“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!”
“Heather is the absolute BEST and her care for Finn has been invaluable! Not only does she walk and play with him during visits, but she also reinforces my training efforts and monitors and reports his health and behavior following their time together. I could not be more thankful for her care for Finn and could not recommend anyone better to care for your furbaby!!”
“Carissa was fantastic!!! Super easy to communicate with and I loved reading the reports on my cats that she left!! Also was able to adjust to an issue with my apartment access and shirt notice! 100% recommend”
“Benjamin was the absolute best! He was able to accept my request at the last minute, maintain the scheduled day/times and accomodate schedule changes I needed over a period of 3 days straight with no issues. He even fed the dogs and gave them water if needed due to schedule change. Communication was clear, and Rover Cards were amazing. He took amazing care of my dogs as if they were his own. My dogs even loved him. If anyone needs someone to watch their pets, Benjamin is the man! 100/10. Would Always Recommend!”
“Katie was such a great sitter for our cat Gooby! She was always on time, sent plenty of photos each visit, and kept our house neat and tidy. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!”
About: Taken care of all animals different pieces and sizes! I live to go on runs so if your doggo needs some energy expenditure I can make that happen run usually span from 2 miles up to 13miles! My doggies run every other day and go to the dog park every day in between! Very quiet household! So if you need your doggies tired just let me know! Live in a large apartment so there is plenty of space for them to play but pets are taken out for runs and dog park pretty much every day.
About: I’ve been loving and caring for dogs since I was young, and am currently raising my own three: Jax, Chihiro, & Delta. I’m also experienced with cats through informal care of outdoor/community cats. I’m known to be attentive & reliable, and I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and daily routines. I’m currently working full-time, (9-4:30 Mon-Fri), but I have availability from 6-8:30am & 5-11:30pm Mon-Fri, and 5am-11:30pm on the weekends. I listen to every pet parent, noting down important information that’ll help me provide the best care to their pets. I ensure that the environment is clean and safe to roam, food is provided correctly, and that the pet is given enough love and attention.
“Absolute sweetheart and overall wonderful experience with her babysitting our sweet girl. She was beyond attentive to our cat and sent beautiful photos of our cat during the visits. We will be rebooking again if we need another sitter when we travel! Thank you again!! 🥰”
“Ansley is a knowledgeable, communicative and attentive caretaker and went above and beyond to be flexible when I had to leave my 8-week-old puppy to go to an appointment. She gave me peace of mind and some sweet puppy photos. So thankful!”
“Alex was great! She gave updates on how her interaction with my cattos went. She also went above and beyond when l asked if she could return to my home to turn the heat on after her visit had ended meant everything. 🥹 Very quick responses and cared for my cattos as if they were hers. Thank you!”
About: I am reliable and make sure to take care of any individual pet. I love hanging out with dogs, making sure they’re active, happy, and cared for. I have experience in watching dogs over night in their homes, as well check on dogs if their owner are away on vacation. Dogs can get lonely when their owners are away working or traveling, which is why I love to dogsit when needed! I am a full-time college, so weekends including Friday afternoons are my best times. If I have free time when not busy with academics, I can dog sit in the afternoon/evenings. I make sure dogs have food and water! I live in a house with a big yard that is front and back, very spacious for dogs to run around and sniff around!
About: i’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have three and they are my whole world. being with and taking care of animals is my happiness. I currently work five days a week 3pm to 10pm. I can walk in the mornings or even check on animals after and before work. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs myself so I have plenty of food and toys for the little ones to play with.

Carissa is an extremely personable, attentive, and trustworthy sitter! She provided very detailed reports for both drop in visits and plenty of photos. My kitties have 2 very different temperaments and she handled them both very well and was clearly in tune with and aware of each cat’s mood when she visited. I always felt like my girls were in good hands and I would absolutely have Carissa cat sit again!
Rebekah came by to visit with us and meet our cats for two days before a weeklong trip, during which she would care for them. We were all incredibly impressed with her knowledge of cats and how quickly they took to her. Since w have just moved here and the house is new to our cats too, we were glad to be able to hire a pet sitter that cares so much.
Lindsay is awesome! This is the second time she has watched our cats while we were gone and I had so much peace of mind that they were okay because she kept me up to date and always sent pictures and videos. I would recommend her to anyone. Your babies will be well taken care of!
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!
Kamylle was intrigued and passionate about our two cats. Very friendly and easy to converse with. She has a lot of experience working with animals, having them herself and working frequently with other animals. Looking forward to having her care after our cats in the future!
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

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Phenix City on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 620 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Phenix City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Phenix City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
