About: My mother is a veterinarian and I worked at her clinic for 6 summers. I know how to work with many different breeds and ages of dogs. I’m currently babysitting during the week but my schedule is very flexible. I am available for boarding or pet care Monday through Sunday at all times! I have a fenced in yard with two other small dogs. If your dog does not like other dogs they are crate trained and we also have available crates at my house.
“Maegan was great with my two dogs! She took lots of pictures (which I love) and gave super detailed feedback on each of their walks. Will definitely be booking with her again!!”
About: I’ve never known a life without pets!! From newborn kittens to senior dogs, I’ve cared for my own and others fur babies my whole life. I’ve unprofessionally dog sat for the past few years for family friends, but I’m looking to offer my services to more! I currently have 3 dogs, and while my whole family cares for them I’d like to say I’m their favorite 😉 I’m currently a full time student working part-time. I would never pick up a job I couldn’t handle with my full attention and sincerity! Your angels matter to me too :) I understand how unnerving it can be having a somewhat stranger be in your home/take care of your babies. I can assure you that as a fellow pet owner, I will approach your needs and circumstances with all the support and professionalism I can offer!
About: I’ve had 2 dogs my entire life (Jack Russell and Toy Poodle) and many of my family members have animals of all sizes! I’d love to spend time with your furry friend when you need it!! I have open availability so whenever you need me! I also have 2 small dogs if you’d like your pup to have some friends to hang out with! I take great care in making sure your pet is safe and happy. Lists of things they like/dislike are helpful (for example my cat gets upset when he is held, but likes belly scratches)
About: We are a recently retired couple with 50 years combined experience raising children with a variety of pets. Now we have a loving, playful rescue dog that gets our full time attention. We are home all the time. We also engage and play with our pets all the time. We have plenty of toys to keep them amused too. Our large back yard is fully fenced and safe and clean at all times. We constantly clean up debris. We monitor playtime and meals to make sure they are safe at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds my whole life. Family, friends, and clients have trusted me with their fur babies. You should too!!! I’m home for the summer may 7th - July 2nd and I can take care of your sweet animals at any time during the week including weekends! I have 3 other dogs who are very friendly, my neighborhood is not dangerous at all and I have a fenced in back yard! I also would have family to help!
“Courtney was 100% professional from the start. She was communicative, quick to respond (to initial request, questions, a change in the stay plan, etc.) and very clearly is a dog lover! Courtney made drop in visits for Molly while I was away for the weekend, and sent pictures throughout the time I was gone and updates. She also pulled my mail inside (THANKS COURTNEY!) and kept me informed of how things were going. When I returned home, Molly was happy and relaxed. I look forward to having Courtney care for Molly and her brother, Senna, in the future!”
“We are very thankful to Michael for taking care of our not 1, not 2, but 5 pups!!! 3 of the 5 are complete wildlings but he patiently handled them with grace. He is very easy to work with in scheduling. Michael even showed up for a meet & greet and spent quite a while learning the most he could about our babies so he would be prepared to take care of them when needed. We look forward to building the relationship & being able to count on him to help us when we have plans that cause us to be away from them. Thank you Michael!!!”
About: I am a former Vet Tech but had to become a SAHM. Before becoming a vet tech I worked in animal shelters, doggy daycare/boarding facilities, and house sat/pet sat for family and friends! I am more than comfortable giving medications as needed. My biggest passion in life is caring for animals. I have been surrounded by animals my whole life and wouldn’t have it any other way. I am punctual, organized, compassionate, flexible, and able to follow specific directions to keep your pets routine intact! I am a stay at home mom to an 8 month old baby and 3 dogs! My time is very flexible outside of doctor appointments. I have a fenced in back yard and 3 dogs to play with but can also keep separate if needed. I have fostered dogs multiple times before including special cases that need special medical instructions. I also have kennels in house as needed.
“Atrisha was absolutely the best! She went above and beyond. We had never left the dogs with anyone before other than family. She was so wonderful to the dogs. They were comfortable with her. We were comfortable with her. She gave us complete peace of mind so we were able to enjoy our trip.”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of fur babies since I was 10 years old! From helping my family with their pets to working at a vet clinic before. I make it a huge priority when I have someone else’s pet in my care. I like to treat other people's fur babies as if they were my own because all pets are family! I typically care for my families pets all the time when they are away from home. I check in, feed, and play with their pets. A pet needs the attention that lacks for when their owner is gone, so I provide that attention for them. I love taking long hikes/walks, so having a precious fur baby by my side makes it more adventurous. Especially when stopping to play with their favorite toy! I have experience in caring for senior pets. I know how to give oral medication and other treatments for ill babies. I know how to properly bathe dogs while also clipping their claws and cleaning out their ears. I am aware of how to train puppies to sit and give paw for a treat. I adore all kinds of pets and with that being said I also have experience with caring for farm pets. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your baby! I can travel anywhere throughout Mobile county, AL! I do have a full time job, but I am available to drop in and care for your babies as I do for my family when they are out of town! Weekends especially! I care for people’s fur babies by following given instructions on how to care for them. From feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. Simply spending time with their fur baby is very important so the baby doesn’t feel lonely while the owners are gone.
About: I’ve been caring for a variety of pets for my entire life! From bottle feeding puppies to caring for chickens, horses, cattle- you name it I’ve done it! I’m extremely passionate about caring for & loving all animals & look forward to extending that passion to your pet! I have completely open availability & can check on your pet any time of the day or night so you never have to worry about your furry family! While I cannot accept pets in my home- I can ensure that your pet be cared for & any needs if them will be met!
“Deanna played with my babies and took care of them. She was concerned about their wellbeing and presence. She even got my shy baby to come out and visit. Well done will use again.”
“London was great. I worked the entire week of Thanksgiving and she was there to help every single day. She was punctual and very respectful, but most importantly was Daisy. She is a little standoffish but warmed up to London faster than anybody I’ve seen. That was worth it all. Definitely recommend her.”

About: I’ve raised and been around dogs my entire life. I can train minor skills to puppies along with potty training. I also have experience administering medicine to even the most stubborn of dogs.

I’m also willing to spend extra time for slower dogs or for dogs who have more energy than most. I’ll wrestle em. I love dogs more than people most of the time.

About: Hi! I’m Linda, and I’ve always loved animals and the comfort, personality, and joy they bring into our lives. I’m dependable, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets — whether that’s going for walks, giving them attention during drop-in visits, or simply helping them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi, so I understand how important reliability, communication, and trust are. I’m looking to offer flexible evening and weekend pet care and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and extra attention to help both you and your pet feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi and have availability during evenings, weekends, and some daytime hours on work-from-home days. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits are a great fit for my schedule and lifestyle I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get attention, exercise, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of care and patience. I also understand how important communication is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for the past 10 years and have owned my own pets since I was a little kid. Whether it’s staying at someone’s house with their pets, dog walking, or just doing check-ins each day, I have lots of experience loving on fur babies! I currently only work part time on weekdays, so all of my evenings and weekends are available to care for and check in on your fur babies!! I am extremely thorough and follow pet rules/recommendations exactly how you want them to be done. I take care of pets exactly how I’d want mine to be taken care of when I’m out of town! I also pay extra attention to loving on them and giving them the attention they need while their pet parent isn’t around.
About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality.

I make it a priority to give pets the time, attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Please note that I am currently unavailable on holidays.

I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, routines, medications, walks, and playtime to ensure pets remain comfortable and cared for. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of attention I would give my own animals.
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all ages. Big dogs to small puppies and any in between. I’ve also worked with foster animals for 5 years I’m typically off during the week (Tuesday through Friday) so I can take care of your animals during the busy work weeks. I’m always up early and ready to take on the day I can easily work with the most hyper or laid back of pets. I’ve worked with crate trained animals as well as pets that are more skittish than friendly

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 Theodore 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
