“Katelynn is great! She was so sweet with my 8 week old puppy and really made me feel better about leaving her at home while I was at work. She sent lots of photos & updates so I knew what to expect when I came home & I knew my baby was in good hands. Will definitely be contacting her the next time I need someone to watch my pup! Highly recommend!”
“Kelsea was terrific watching my kittens while we went on a 12 hour road trip. She must be a cat whisperer because my usually shy, quiet, kitten ran to her on her visits for petting! She is super impressive. I am happy I found her. She’s 10/10!”
“Sandy took really good care of my cats and did additional things that like cleaning up cat throw up and vacuuming. Her communication with me about what was going on with my cats was outstanding and sent me many pictures so I could see them.”
About: I have been caring for pets since middle school and gained hands-on experience working as a stable hand while growing up. Since moving to the Birmingham area for college, I have provided reliable house-sitting and pet care services, looking after dogs and cats for extended periods. Now that I am back in my hometown on the Eastern Shore, I am continuing to care for my family's pets and would be ecstatic to care for your pets as well! With a warm and calm presence, I ensure that pets feel comfortable and well-cared for while their owners are away. Dependable and detail-oriented, I take pride in providing attentive, trustworthy care tailored to each pet’s needs. I'm currently working a remote part-time job, so any type of care, whether it's drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care for extensive time periods, works great for my schedule. This flexibility allows me to make caring for your pets my top priority! In my client’s home I always aim to make not only the pets but the owners feel comfortable and safe while I am taking care of their furry friends! When learning about the pet I am caring for, I strive to learn their normal behaviors, daily routines, and activities that make them feel loved so that I can make them as comfortable as possible while their owners are away. I also make sure to take good care of their homes during my stay. I am diligent about fostering a low-stress environment, keeping things clean and tidy, as well as safely locked up!
“Becca has always been great with our dog, she has been our dog sitter for quite a while now and we always have great experience with her. She cares for our dog, she is always really good communicating and updating us while she is with our dog. I’m very happy I found her on Rover!”
About: I have owned a variety of pets throughout my life. I have also fostered 10 dogs of all ages and helped find them forever homes. This past year, I worked as an animal placement specialist at my local shelter and placed hundreds of dogs and cats into their forever homes. I have worked with a wide variety of dog breeds and I am knowledgeable with dog behavior. I also volunteered at a wildlife rehabilitation center. I am currently a full-time, pre-nursing student at Auburn. I am home for the summer and have a very open schedule. I work most days but am available morning and nights. I able to travel to your home to care for your pets there. I have experience with giving meds. I am able to provide care as close to their regular routine as possible.
“Caroline is amazing! She was always on time to check on our four fur babies and left details and photos each time. We felt great knowing they were in her care. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for the last 8 years! I love to take them on walks and my favorite thing is to teach them new tricks! I am working full time Monday through Friday but I get off at 3:30 everyday so I have more than enough time to take you pet of a late afternoon walk! I am unable to watch pets in my home as I live in an apartment and my dog is a rescue who has some trouble getting along with other pets than my own
“Gabrielle did a great job dropping in on our cat. Clear communication, reliable, and clearly really cares about animals. She goes above and beyond, and I highly recommend her!”
“It’s always so difficult to leave Pepper. But Michael M provided the most wonderful updates during his drop in visits with her. He established such a great rapport with Pepper, which is a feat! His videos and photos, and comments throughout made us smile and laugh. If he’s available for our next time to travel away, we will definitely book him again. Thank you so much, Michael M. You took the worry. And the guilt over leaving Pepper away. 👍👍👍👍👍 Five stars! We recommend”
About: I've raised two dogs, a pitbull named khole who I just recently lost to Cancer😔. She was 12 years old and the greatest most loyal dog i could have ever hoped for. I had her since she was a puppy and we traveled everywhere together, now I have Apollo a Scottish collie I got while living in Germany, he just turned 2 years. I have been around dogs most of my life as far back as I can remember. I am a medically retired veteran. So to generate extra income and keep myself active this is what I do, I get a lot of emotional joy from being around dogs, as a small I always gravitated towards dogs so I just naturally grew to love dogs. To me their is no better gift then to be truly loved and what loves us more then our dogs ? I have a fenced yard 1/3 of a acre with a pool and garden. My house is well maintained and orderly. Your pet will always be safe in my care.
“Ariel was amazing! She took such great care of our doggo while we were away. Great communication and made sure our dog was loved. Charlie loved all the play time and walks she took him on. Would highly recommend Ariel to anyone!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. My passion and love for dogs inspired me to start a dog rescue a few years ago. Since starting the rescue, I have gained experience with dogs of all different ages, breeds, and sizes. I have also learned to handle a variety of different behavior and health issues. I have experience with aggressive, fearful, and anxious dogs. I am confident in handling just about any type of dog. I can be available most days of the week. My schedule is flexible for the most part, so I will do my best to accommodate you. While caring for your pet, I will do my best to treat them as you would. I will give them plenty of love and attention, but also be sure to set the same boundaries for them as you do. For example, if you don't allow them on the couch then I will do the same. I will also send you plenty of updates on how they are doing while I am with them.
About: Hi, I’m Michelle (or Chelle), I’m a 25-year-old university graduate and recently married. Growing up, there was always a dog in our house—they are a part of the family. My home has always had small to medium dogs, but many of my friends have large dogs that I've taken care of and loved like my own. One of my life’s greatest joys is having a dog. I strive to love and care for dogs (and animals in general) with gentleness and patience. And with every pet, I will treat them with kindness and respect. As for some relevant work experience history, I've done dog sitting here and there for a while now, worked at a Camp Bow Wow and volunteered at the Animal Rescue Foundation. I hope you'll consider me as your pet caregiver. I look forward to working with you and meeting your pets. I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible. I'm available for walking, pet sitting and drop-in visits. (Please note: I'm only able to do pet sitting/boarding in the pet parents' home) I am experienced in administering oral or topical medication as required, general grooming such as brushing and bathing, and I am able to easily crate your dog if needed.
“Super attentive to my Peppa and eased my mind throughout my absence. Will absolutely book her again! Took plenty of pictures and videos throughout. She was so chill when I got home. Thank you again Carly!!”

Jennifer was great with our dog while we were out of town. Such great details every visit and I felt at ease knowing our dog was being loved. She went the extra mile as well picking up a mess he made chewing up a toy. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing care for their furry family.

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 Spanish Fort 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Spanish Fort choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Spanish Fort with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
