“Megan is a wonderful cat sitter! I loved the daily pictures she sent of my kitties. They were all well cared for and my extremely shy cat even warmed up to Megan. She’s trustworthy, which is important to me. I would definitely recommend her!”



About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life—since I was 5 years old. My mom is a dog groomer, and I worked with her for years, which gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I currently have three of my own, ranging from 40 to 190 lbs, so I’m very comfortable handling large breeds and high-energy pups. I’m confident with everything from basic care to reading dog body language and managing senior or anxious dogs with patience and calm energy. I work from home, so I’m home all day and able to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. My flexible schedule means I can easily stick to your dog’s routine and be available for walks, feedings, and cuddle time throughout the day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs or quirks. I follow instructions closely, keep a clean and calm environment, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also give regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure they feel secure, happy, and at home—wherever they are.

About: Hello, my name is Alex! Animals have always been an interest of mine (fun fact: my favorite animal is the grizzly bear) and I love caring for them! I've been taking care of my family dogs for the last 5 years and recently adopted my kitty a little over a year ago. Outside of that, I volunteer at my local shelter and have been hired to walk dogs by neighbors as well as dog/ house sit from time to time. I may be new to Rover but I am not new to being dependable and responsible! I am currently a Junior in college and do not work a job during the academic year. My main constraint is classes when school is in session, but other than that I will work diligently to fit into whatever schedule is needed of me! I know how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your pet. This is why I do my absolute best to make sure each fur baby is treated with the same love and care that I would want for my own. My goal is to give them - and you - the absolute best experience possible.

“Megan was wonderful! She stayed in communication with us and kept us up to date on everything. She loved our babies like her own! Def recommend! She’s became a new F•R•I•E•N•D for us :)”


About: I had a Tibetan Terrier who lived to be 14 years old, so I've had plenty of senior pet care experience, as well as administering medications. I currently have a golden retriever who is about little over 1 year old who I got at 8 weeks so plenty of puppy experience as well. I've trained both of my dogs to do many tricks. I've never owned a cat but I've pet sit for plenty. I'm taking classes at the University of Alabama so whenver I'm not in class or taking care of my own dog, I'm free. Especially weekends, afternoons, and evening. I can take your dog on walks or if you have a fenced in yard I can go hang out with them in the backyard.

About: I have 5+ years of experience in pet sitting and am a huge animal lover! I have two cats of my own, and have fostered about a dozen kittens and cats from shelters. I love interacting with dogs and cats of any size and personality, and enjoy dog walking as well. I have volunteered at the Humane Society cat house, as well as walk dogs through the Metro Animal Shelter happy hour. I would love to spend time with your pets and am committed to providing them a safe environment, as well as sending updates and pictures while you are away so you know they are in goods hands. I am currently a UAB medical student living in Tuscaloosa. I currently have a flexible schedule in my fourth year, and most of my weekends are completely open as well as some weekdays. I will ensure that my calendar stays updated routinely with availability. I am fully willing to tailor my pet-sitting for you and your pets needs! I am very flexible as far as needs for feeding, walking, etc and check ins at your home. Love going to the Tuscaloosa riverwalk for dog walking! Your pet can also stay in my home if needed! I live in a house with two adult cats so I prefer that your pet be cat-friendly, but I also have an extra bedroom where your furbaby can stay if separation is needed. My house has a walking trail and lake behind it which is perfect for dogs. My cats have been introduced to many foster pets over the years!

“Mary demonstrated absolute resilience in providing care for Nyla, a pet requiring SIGNIFICANT attention, successfully navigating challenges through extremely innovative approaches. We absolutely appreciate Mary never giving up and insisting on making it work! Thank you so much, Mary!”


“Alex was great!! We did the meet and greet the day before and I knew I could trust her. I got pictures everyday which gave me peace of mind and showed my cat eating and playing so I knew she was happy and comfortable. I would gladly use her services in the future!”



“Allison did such a great job caring for our 2 dogs and cat while we were away! She was reliable, trustworthy, and communicated very effectively. We got lots of pictures and updates, so we never had to worry and we knew our girls were in great hands. We highly recommend Allison and will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Wendy was awesome! She was punctual and was in touch with me frequently reporting my dog’s actions and responses to her. I felt very confident in her care. I will definitely use her again! Highly recommend.”


About: I have taken care of several animals throughout my life. We have 3 dogs right now. A senior toy poodle, a 5 year old yorkie and our newest “foster fail” Remi haha. Remi is a 6 month old Tri-Paw we rescued from the animal shelter. We love our animals and we treat them like family. I have also taken care of my families animals for weeks at a time( including dropping off at camp, feeding and giving meds) I currently work full time from home. Drop ins would be super easy for me! Also, weekends would be better for over night sitting for me. I will do exactly what is needed depending on your animal. I am a helicopter mom and your fur babies safety is of utmost importance to me.

About: About Us: We’re a dog-loving couple with experience caring for our own pups and others’. We offer a calm, loving home with a fenced yard and give lots of attention. We’re home most evenings and weekends, and we’re happy to stick to your dog’s routine to the best of ability. Whether it’s cuddles, fetch, or medication needs—we’ve got it handled! Why We Do This: We know how important it is to find someone you trust. Our dogs are part of our family, and we treat your fur baby the same way! We both work full-time during the day, but pet care still fits naturally into our routine. Mornings and evenings are structured and calm—ideal for play time in the backyard, feeding, and one-on-one time with your pup. Your dog will get plenty of attention before the day starts, and once we’re home, our evenings are dedicated to winding down with our pets. Weekends are usually spent at home, giving us time for longer playtime and cuddles. With our love for animals and established routines, your dog will feel safe, cared for, and part of our little family. If we visit your home, we will be sure to take care of your animal before and after our work day-as needed. We have a fenced in backyard, two dogs for company (a dog fence in the house if they you’re not comfortable with them mingling), and we will spoil your dog-just like we do ours! Our dogs have prescription food, need special care, and medicine, so those things are not unfamiliar to us!

About: I have always had animals around me since I was little. I just started doing house sitting and I was highly recommended by a family friend.

I have a family dog that is very loving and she’s a inside dog and is very much house trained and she’s a small dog that everyone wants to love on

“Jill was great! She was able to let my new puppy out last minute when I had an unexpected work meeting. Would definitely recommend!”


Hannah E.
“Hannah came recommended to me through a close friend. I was desperate to find someone to housesit for me while I spent several weeks in Pensacola while my daughter gave birth to my first grandchild. I have two dogs and a cat that are my life and I needed someone to live in my home while I was away. I have an Aussie Doodle full of energy, a senior dog with back issues, and a lazy cat. I had specific routines and feeding rules for the dogs and I needed someone that I could trust to continue my routines when I was gone. Hannah came to my home 3 separate times to meet and hang out with me and my fur babies. She is personable, dependable, communicative, and most of all, she is an animal lover. She gave me the peace of mind I needed to leave town, with my home and my animals in her care, to be with my daughter. during this special occasion. Hannah was very responsive to texts and phone calls and always kept me up to date with what my babies were doing each day. She sent pics and videos too. Even ran to the store to grab extra food when it ran out. I would highly recommend Hannah for any and all of your house or pet sitting needs. She has become a wonderful friend to me and my fur babies and I will def use her in the future!!”
