About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every size and personality since I was 14, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me because I’m patient, gentle, and really pay attention to what each dog needs. I’m great with shy or anxious pets, and I know how to keep energetic dogs active, happy, and safe. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or baths, I make sure every pet feels loved and cared for the entire time you’re away. Your fur baby will always be my priority. I’m a nursing student with a very flexible schedule, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I plan my classes and study time around my bookings, which means your pet always gets my full attention. I love having animals as part of my daily routine, and I’m happy to adjust to whatever schedule your fur baby needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort mean everything to me. I take my time to learn what each fur baby needs so they always feel calm and cared for. I keep a clean, peaceful environment and follow your routines closely—feeding, walking, litter care, meds, anything they need. Whether I’m in your home or mine, you can trust that your pet will be loved, watched closely, and treated gently every moment they’re with me.

About: I've always had a love for animals, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets when you can't be there. As a pet owner, I know that every animal has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Some pets love playtime and lots of attention, while others prefer a calm companion and a familiar routine. My goal is to make every visit a positive experience by helping your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. Whether your pet needs fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or simply some extra love and companionship, I'm happy to provide attentive care tailored to their needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pets. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member can be stressful, which is why communication is very important to me. During each visit, I'll provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I'm dependable, responsible, and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to getting to know you and your pets and becoming someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand! 🐾💕 Skills & Qualifications: ⭐️ Can administer oral medication ⭐️ Experience caring for multiple pets ⭐️ Can provide daily exercise ⭐️ Experience with senior dogs ⭐️ Experience with puppies ⭐️ Comfortable with large dogs ⭐️ Experience with rescue dogs ⭐️ Experience with shy or nervous dogs ⭐️ Experience with high-energy dogs ⭐️ Experience with leash training/basic commands ⭐️ Experience with special feeding schedules I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I'm available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits throughout the week, including weekends. Whether you need regular check-ins, vacation coverage, or last-minute help, I'd love to help care for your pets! Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to carefully follow all care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. During each visit, I'll make sure your pet has everything they need, including fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or signs that something may be wrong and will communicate with you right away if I have any concerns. I know how important peace of mind is when you're trusting someone with your furry family member, so I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing during my visits. My goal is to create a positive experience for both you and your pet by providing reliable care, clear communication, and lots of love and attention every step of the way. 🐾💕
“Highly recommend Jamie. She stepped in while I was recovering from knee surgery and walked Pippa every day. She is dependable, on time, friendly and communicates well. Pippa was always excited to see Jamie when she came.”
About: I know how stressful it can be to choose someone to care for your pets, and I’ve totally been there. I have two small dogs myself, and I hate leaving them behind. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from cats, and dogs, to even an abandoned deer for two days. I’d love to be your best friend’s new best friend! Currently, I’m a stay at home dog mom. I take my boys to the Red Mountain or Vestavia Hills Dog Park almost everyday, and they couldn’t be happier! Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, they’ll be cared for just like my own. In my home, they’ll enjoy our fully fenced, backyard, walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. In your home, I’ll stick to their routine so they feel happy, safe, and loved
About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)
About: Resident doctor by day, gentle pet‑spoiler always. I care for humans professionally and your pets lovingly - because everyone deserves snacks, comfort, and a calm heartbeat nearby. Working nearly full‑time until the end of June, with somewhat limited availability. My schedule opens up much more in the summer, offering plenty of pet‑care time. I understand how stressful it is when owners leave, so I focus on making your pet feel safe, comforted, and genuinely loved throughout your time away.
About: Hi! I’m Sara, and I’ve been caring for animals since I was in high school. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners, and I’m grateful to have received wonderful references along the way. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member, too! I graduated from UAB and currently work from home in digital advertising, which gives me a more flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. My husband and I live in Bluff Park with our almost one-year-old son and lab mix Libby. Working from home allows me to have a more flexible schedule throughout the weekdays. My husband also has flexible hours so one of us is always available. We live in a very safe community with plenty of walking trails. I also have a 6 year old lab mix Libby who loves to play.
About: I have diverse experience in animal care from my own pets, to neighbors and family members’ furry friends, and even professionally with wildlife. I am excited and honored to care for your family, both human and animal. I work sporting events freelance and am looking to add a little work on the side. I am free almost every weekday and most weekends. I do have an apartment most suitable for smaller dogs, however I have access to ample green space and neighborhoods to walk and play in. In your home, I will respect your space while keeping your furry friend in an environment they know.
About: I had 3 cocker spaniels as a kid, separately, loved them, they loved me. Did everything together. Would love more time with dogs. Cats, too I work 5 evenings a week from 5pm-10, (shorter that overnight sleep), off Monday and Thursday. It has worked out great for both sides. Just a mile from home. There’s community property where pets do their business, we’re required to pick up poop. All dogs are leashed to avoid issues. Leashing required in Hoover.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Shannon on Rover is $19.98 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Shannon. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Shannon.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shannon. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
