“This is the second time we’ve booked with Joanne. Joanne is excellent with communication and very attentive to the needs of Atlas and Sadie. Highly recommend Joanne. It is very apparent that she is an animal lover.”

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life and have always enjoyed caring for animals. I regularly pet sit my friend Josh’s three cats when he’s away, making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention. I also frequently care for my girlfriend’s dog, so I’m experienced with the day-to-day responsibilities that come with caring for dogs. Growing up with multiple cats and dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention to each pet’s individual personality can be. I understand that every animal has different routines and comfort levels, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and relaxed. When your pet is in my care, my priority is providing a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where they can feel at home. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I’m trying to make Rover my main job. So my schedule is pretty open at all times! Besides Rover. I produce music for clients. I will follow your instructions while in your home! Make sure they are fed properly and taken out on time! In my home, I try to mirror how you prefer things done in your home! I can crate them if needed.

“Haven did such a great job taking care of our Libby while we were away! Libby was very happy when we got home, which I can’t say the same for previous times we’ve had to leave her. She took her on walks, played with her, and spent time with her which we really appreciated. We highly recommend Haven!”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have taken care of everything from great pyrenees to Shih Tzu’s and even sugar gliders. I love volunteering at the Birmingham Humane Society and I know how to take care of puppies and seniors, how to give medication, and how to do basic emergency care like the Heimlich. I am a college student and have a couple labs/classes but I am typically free all weekends and Tuesdays. I can also stay when I am not in class. Other than that I am free to take care of all animals and make sure they are not lonely while you are away! In my home I have two cats. I rescued one as a kitten and have another older cat that came to me with asthma. Because of this I know how to administer medicine. I also grew up with dogs in my house as their primary caregiver and frequently visited my grandmothers farm. I have experience pet sitting and love every animal.

“Alexis was great with my babies while I was gone! My dog does not take easily to new people, but she relaxed around Alexis pretty quickly in our pre-sitting meet up. I also didn't have to hunt down my cat like I usually do when sitters are over...which is a change. It's not them, but Xena doesn't like anyone...lol. She came in before I even had to look for her! Alexis is a good communicator and sent photos regularly to let me know how they were doing. I'll definitely hire her again.”

About: I BOARD ALL PETS... They are all welcome! From puppies to senior dogs, timid and shy to energetic and playful. Hosted them all with great reviews and references. My earliest appointment is 8a and the latest appointment 8pm. I am also available most days of the week to host and or walk your puppies. Check my calendar for availability and price information on your set of days. My earliest appointment is 8a and the latest appointment 8pm. We have plenty space where your puppies will feel safe and enjoy themselves. Lastly, although I personally do not have any pets of my own, I do board them and I stay relatively busy. That being said I can accommodate your puppy if they need separate quarters and alone yard time.

“Logan was very responsive, kind, and prompt with her messaging and the effort she took taking care of our pup. Would certainly hire her again.”

About: I have always had dogs and cats in my household and care for them deeply. I often would take care of friends or family’s dogs just for the fun of it. I use to work at a dog resort so I am well trained in handling dogs and being able to tell what they are feeling. I have special skills with dogs of all ages and i ensure your companion will be happier than ever! I currently work Monday-Thursday from 9:30-6:30 and Friday from 8-4. I understand that may not work with some, which I completely understand! I have pet/house sit before and i’ve received amazing reviews. I can provide references if you’d like! I started this Rover account for my love of all animals, and I am happy to help care for them while you’re gone! I have prior experience at a doggie daycare so I am well trained on food and meal prep, as well as behavioral training. My inbox is always open so feel free to message me!! I like to treat my pets as my best friends. I feel the need to constantly reassure them that i love them while also understanding they might need their space. I have worked with all kinds of behavioral differences in many dogs and I assure you I am able to properly care for your pets in any situation. I am able to deal with all kinds of personalities with the respective care.

“Sarah did a great job and was easy to work with!”

About: I recently went on a trip for my birthday and found this app as a resort for my animals while i was off. i was so happy with this app and i decided to sign myself up for it since i have a strong love for animals and i am a college student, at UAB, so it’s easy to fit my weird schedule. I have always loved animals since i opened my eyes as a baby. I have grown up with many different animals like dogs, cats, birds, lizards, frogs, turtles, and fish. I love each and every animal equally. I am currently working at P.F. Chang’s as a cook, part time, I am available majority during the late afternoon and night. I have 2 days off in the week which are Tuesdays and Thursdays. at the moment i have an orange tabby cat, a pitbull german shepherd mix puppy, and a soft shell turtle. I have trained my dog to do many tricks and be disciplined as well.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience as a pet owner my whole life for cats and dogs (I have one Shih-tzu and one cat as of now!). I have also provided walks for other pets for 2 years for my family and friends, offering personalized care and a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. My passion for pets ensures they receive the attention, love, and exercise they deserve! I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I'm looking to spend my time doing something I genuinely enjoy, and caring for pets is a great fit. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting, I can easily work them into my daily routine and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I treat every pet like they're my own! I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, and lots of attention. I always follow the owner's instructions, whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, giving medication, or keeping up with their normal routine. I keep the environment clean and safe, watch for anything that seems off, and send regular updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to help them feel comfortable, relaxed, and loved while you're away.

About: Animals have always had a soft spot in my heart. I’ve been taking care of pets for 20 years and have worked in animal shelters along with working as a Vet Assistant, so I’ve had experience with all kinds of furry (and feathery) personalities. Whether you need daily check-ins, overnight stays, or help with medications, I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet is comfortable, cared for, and getting all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away 🐾 I have an open schedule currently, I’m only available between 8am-midnight, I’m also available for overnight stays if needed. I require a 5-7 day cancellation. Whether I’m staying at your place or checking in throughout the day, I like to keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel comfortable and stress free. Feeding, walks, playtime, medications, whatever they need. I always make sure they’re safe, cared for, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. I also like keeping owners updated with pictures and little check-ins because I know how much peace of mind matters when someone else is caring for your pet 🐾

About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old, from Shih Tzus to Goldens and from puppies to seniors! I am comfortable caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it is keeping up with the energy of a new puppy, managing a multi-dog household, or providing the gentle and patient care that senior dogs need, I adapt my routine to what makes each pet feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. When staying overnight, I focus on maintaining your dog's regular schedule in the comfort of their own home. You can also have peace of mind knowing that your house is secure, your plants are watered, and everything is being looked after while you are away. House sitting is my primary pet-care focus and one of my main work priorities, so I keep my schedule flexible around the needs and routines of the animals I am staying with. I do not have a rigid daily schedule, which allows me to accommodate feeding times, walks, medications, playtime, and other routines as needed. These responsibilities come first while I am caring for a pet. I may step out for an hour or two at a time to run errands or grab food, but my personal hobbies and activities are planned around those responsibilities, not the other way around. I care for pets in their own home by following the routines and instructions their owners provide as closely as possible. I make sure feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and household rules remain consistent so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I pay extremely close attention to doors, gates, leashes, food restrictions, and anything else that could affect their safety. I also keep the home secure and tidy, clean up after the pets, and communicate with the owner if I notice anything unusual in their behavior, appetite, routine, or environment. I am also happy to handle routine household tasks such as watering plants, retrieving mail, and keeping an eye on the property while you are away. My goal is to make the experience as normal and low-stress as possible for both the pets and their owners.

“Yes yes yes yes yes !! Michelle was amazing. I’m so grateful of all the sitters, I chose her. She absolutely exceeded my expectations 💗 I didn’t have to wonder or guess or hope my babies were taken care of because every time I opened the app there was an update and pictures. Which I loved 🥰 she was extremely attentive and very communicative if there were any questions. She was more attentive than I was 😂 after the first day had gone and I understood she was the dog sitting goat… I, myself, relaxed a bit. I feel having someone reliable makes a world of difference & Michelle is that reliable person. So book those trips ✈️, then book Michelle 🐾 & go have a blast 😌 I definitely will be booking her in the future. Thanks a lot girl 🫶🏽”

About: Hello! My name is Lauren and I am so excited to have the opportunity to watch your favorite companion! I have been taking care of my dog and other's as well for about 16 years. Their safety and happiness is my number one priority. I will give your animal all the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away! As a former Zookeeper and current Veterinary Assistant, I know the hard work and dedication it takes to take care of animals of all sizes and shapes. I currently have three French Bulldogs that get along with any dog and are always down for a puppy play date. If you are looking for dog boarding in my home your pet must be pet friendly because of this, up to date on vaccines, and a meet and greet will be required before hand. If you are only looking for drop in visits or dog walking they will stay home and a meet and greet will not be required. If you have any questions at all please do not hesitate to contact me. I hope I can meet your favorite family member soon! I currently work as a vet assistant at a speciality and emergency practice in Birmingham. I work overnights on the weekends so I’m completely free during the week. If your pet is staying during the weekend my partner is free while I’m not home to take care of our furry guests! I can do whatever is needed to make your dog feel safe! We can walk them on a leash, use a fenced in backyard, crate them when we leave, etc.

“Ashley came to our home the day before our departure and took the time to understand our home, functions and animals. Throughout the week she sent updates with videos and pictures. She communicated well and made us feel at ease being gone for over week out of the country. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Her care and care of attention is a great quality in not only a person but a caregiver.”

About: Hi! My name is Adrian, and I've been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I grew up helping care for large dogs and have always been the person my family relies on to feed, play with, and look after our pets. I especially love large breeds and enjoy spending time outdoors, playing, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'll treat your pets with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'm currently very flexible and have plenty of availability throughout the week for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Because my schedule is open, I can dedicate plenty of attention to your pets instead of rushing between commitments. I communicate regularly, send photo updates, and always make sure owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. For everyone's safety and comfort, I currently only offer care in my client's home. My family dog is not comfortable around unfamiliar animals, so I don't provide boarding in my own home. When caring for pets in your home, I carefully follow your routines, make sure fresh water is always available, maintain feeding and bathroom schedules, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a clean home

About: I have always had dogs as pets since I was 3 years old! I had 4 growing up and have always had at least two at a time! I have a passion for caring for pets and believe all pets should be treated like our family! I do have some experience in dog first aid and will always care for your pup as my own! I work from home full time so I am able to play with the dogs and take them on walks/hike often! I have a 3 acre yard that is tucked away and an absolute oasis for dogs! I have two dogs of my own so I am already on a potty break schedule every two hours at least! I will always treat your pet like they are my family! I do let pets on furniture if that is okay with the owner and I will follow all of your instructions very carefully. I take this job very seriously and want your pet to have the best time possible! I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is well taken care of and happy! I use Rover for my own pups when I go out of town, so I know how scary it can be to leave your pet with someone new! I will send you photos and videos throughout your stay, and you can even facetime your pet if you’d like! Whatever I can do to make your time more peaceful, please let me know 😊
