About: I have grown up with animals my whole life. My dog, Lady brings me so much joy after a long day. I have watched family and friends pets for years and I love looking after a clients pet as if they are my own. I currently work a flexible part time job Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I would be happy to care for your pets while you enjoy your vacation plans or any last minute arrangements. I have experience giving medicine to elderly pets, as I have two of my own. Have a friendly pup who also likes others dogs? I have a young energetic pup who can keep your dog company as needed.
“Cam is the best. She has consistently gone above and beyond for our kitties. The updates she provides are thoughtful and make our trip even better. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been handling animals ever since I was 13, this includes cats, dogs, and even bunnies! (I had one that I let free roam). Cats and Bigger dogs are always a personal favorite but I truly love animals and even considered going into veterinary sciences! I can assure you, your animal is in great hands seeing as I have a cat and two dogs myself! I’m a current part-time nursing student who uses this as a sort of side job on top of my normal job that i work at full time (30hrs a week), but i still have a lot of time to care for critters of any kind! Whenever I’m at my Aunt and Uncles for up to a week dog sitting and house sitting for them, I make sure to feed both of their dogs and let them out at least every 1-2 hours especially after feeding them, and they stay outside for about 30mins-1 hour, but i don’t mind walking animals at all either! And of course I like to cuddle up with animals if they allow me too and give them play time as well as a little down time to cuddle up and be content!
About: Hi! I’m a biology major at Jeff State Community College that is obsessed with animals of all kinds. I’ve been surrounded by dogs since the day I was born and became the main caregiver for them when I was about 12. From shy, skittish, and very nervous/anxious dogs with hyper personalities to laid back, not a care in the world, couch potato dogs, no job is too big or small for me and no pup is too difficult. I believe that every dog deserves detailed care that is specifically created to fit their needs. I'm a full time student but that doesn't take away my focus on making sure your pet gets the best care possible! I have classes Mondays and Wednesdays and an honor society meeting on Fridays in the morning. I strive to create a safe and warm environment for every pup I meet! For in-house sitting I will make sure to follow your pup's routine to a tee to ensure that they feel safe, comfortable, and have a fun time. Whether it's keeping up with a feeding schedule, nap/sleep schedule, medication schedule, daily walks and potty breaks, playing their favorite games, etc. I am more than happy to go out of the way to make sure their needs are met. I bring the exact same energy for drop-in visits and walks making sure they get as much exercise as they need.
“Louann did an great job, it made my vacation all the better knowing my kitties were in good hands. She kept me up to date with pictures. She spent time playing with them which was appreciated. Will definitely reach out again in the future”
“Sarah had great communication with me and took care of Mako so well! When I came home for the day he was still sleepy and very happy. I will definitely consider re-booking her when needed!”
“Rebecca was so fantastic for our senior dog while we were on vacation. She was very communicative and maintained a consistent schedule of drop-ins. I highly recommend her she is truly an animal lover and enjoys what she does. Will definitely use her again.”
“Leah was wonderful to our kitties! She’s a great communicator and really cares. She is detailed oriented and made me feel at ease. I know our kitties will be excited to see her again. Thanks Leah!”
About: -Constant care avaliable upon request** -Experienced with shy/anxious animals -Independently insured -Petsitting is my primary job. Your pets are my priority! -Capable of caring for small mammals and exotic pets, including reptiles and arthropods As a sitter, I pay attention to the details, such as making sure food and water bowls are cleaned, and I am diligent in keeping pets out of potentially dangerous situations. You can also be assured that I will take good care of your home. Overnight dog sits include at least one walk a day unless otherwise specified or the weather prevents it. I am comfortable administering medications, including injections. **Depending on your needs, I may not be able to provide constant care on Wednesday nights, as I have an 2.5hr evening class, but this is my only other commitment I am self-employed, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I am avaliable for constant care for an additional rate. Most of my exercise comes from walking dogs, so I am more than happy to take the long route if your pooch is up for it! I am very careful with your pets, avoiding encounters with unfamiliar dogs or people to avoid conflicts. My food is never within reach, and I pride myself on keeping your home clean and ready for your return.
About: I have grown up always having a pet in the house so I very quickly found a love for animals, specifically dogs. I understand that dogs can differ in personality and I have a good idea on how to deal with certain behaviors, especially being a pet owner myself. P.S. I had to leave my fur baby while away at school so I would love to take care of yours! I'm currently working part-time as well as attending The University of Alabama at Birmingham but I will have plenty of time for your fur babies! I will be providing services primarily in the mornings as that is what works best for my schedule. I will be available between the hours of 6am-11am. I am focusing on dog-walking but I will occasionally provide drop in services as well, so I will follow any instructions I am given regarding caring for a pet in the client's home.
“Raegan was so great with my puppy, Mayer while he was recovering from his neutering surgery! She sent me updates and pictures and made me comfortable when I was nervous to leave him home for the first time while I was at work. She welcomed a long list of care instructions from me, a crazy dog mom. I trust her with my pup and will be using her in the future!”
“Shelby did a great job with our two kitties, who both need a little special/extra care. She went above & beyond to take great care of them and I felt good about being away, knowing that she was looking out for them.”
“Ray is Great! I use him on repeat for boarding and dropping in. Great Communicator. My pup knows him and loves him. Always 5 Stars! Thanks again Ray for accepting this last booking on short notice!”
“Joy was so accommodating and helpful to drop in on my dogs while I was on vacation. One of my dogs is very shy and she opened up to Joy! I received updates with every visit as well as pictures. I would definitely book Joy again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Trussville
Olivia was absolutely amazing with Whiskey and Selena! From the moment we met her, you could tell she genuinely cares about animals. She kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and my dogs looked so happy and well cared when I got home. She was patient, attentive, and treated them like her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
