House Sitting in Tuskegee

About: hello, i’m lee, and i’ve been a full time pet sitter since august 2021. my upbringing was full of animals to care for and love on, and as my childhood dog got older, i learned to care for senior puppies. caring for animals requires patience and a level of understanding that is different from communicating with other people. that is why i believe in my heart that bonding with an animal is one of the most rewarding experiences of our lifetimes. i live in an apartment with myself and my partner, but my apartment has room for them to roam or relax. there’s grass and spaces for me to walk your pet or take them out for potty breaks as well. i live near a golf course, and if your baby loves going on long walks, the course is perfect for getting rid of some energy. i am available full time for services! whenever i am not out of town visiting family, your pet will feel like family in my home. i can easily follow given instructions, and your pet will be receiving my full attention while in my care. you’ll also be getting once or twice daily pictures and updates with your pet. my aim is to give you peace of mind that your baby is safe and well taken care of under my care and alleviate your worries.

“I absolutely loved Emily for the i day I had her, unexpectedly I had a son come home from out of town working who had got into a disagreement with his girlfriend and had been drinking who just came by not knowing I was out of town to stay the evening and she understandably didn’t feel comfortable completing the contract and couldn’t iboard Lucy bc she has cats. Piecing together alternate drop ins for the remaining 3 days did not even compare to her and was very disappointed to not complete the contract as she was very efficient, kind, easy to work with sent pictures communicated exceptionally well and knew I had nothing to worry about and felt complete at peace and assured my dog was in the greatest of hands. In light of the unexpected situation she thankfully didn’t terminate me on Rover and effect my account standing and was understanding of the unexpected circumstances and understandably not feeling comfortable staying overnight. I’m new to Rover and she was my first experience and will say inspite of the early termination and lost payment the experience I did have with Emily made it a great. I would recommend if new to Rover setting up contingency plans and or making sure if situations arise unexpected drop in services are ok as alternative to in house so you don’t have to double pay for sitters. In light of it all Emily was very understanding communicated well and bc of how impressed I was with the communication and the 1 day of sitter care I bought her a gift back from my vacation as a thank you for the pictures and constant reassurance Lucy was in good hands. I had to meet up with her to give her some things that she left at the house and was gracious and understanding of the unexpected circumstance and apologized for not completing the contract and feeling comfortable with boarding staying or changing to drop in. Thankfully my sister and friend were able to come by once a day and it eased the extreme stress of not having a sitter and not even anticipating making back up plans but as I stated was a learning curve with utilizing the Rover app. I would use Rover again but just make sure to discuss contingency plans and flexibility in case of unexpected circumstances.. I would also recommend Emily highly she was a great sitter but just make sure to discuss contingency plans for unexpected events or have a back up plan.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and originally wanted to become a veterinarian growing up. Now, as a pre-nursing student at AU, I still love having the opportunity to care for others — especially animals. I grew up with a childhood dog that I was completely inseparable from. Even when I was little, I helped feed her, walk her, play with her, and even helped with training. Those experiences are a huge part of why I love pet care so much today. My family now has two dogs that we got while I was in high school, and I love visiting them every chance I get. I’m definitely the type of person who immediately gravitates toward the dog at any social gathering. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors since I was around 10 years old, and even more frequently once I started driving at 16. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means going on runs with high-energy dogs or taking slower walks and giving extra comfort and attention to more relaxed pets. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and so loved while their owners are away. I also worked on a ranch last summer where I cared for dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, chickens, and ducks, which gave me even more hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and personalities. Although I didn’t grow up with cats, I’ve done plenty of cat sitting over the years and absolutely love them as well. I know every cat is different, and I’m always patient and attentive to their routines and comfort level. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work a 9–5 job during the week, but I have an hour lunch break that gives me flexibility for walks, check-ins, or midday care. I also usually go on a run in the mornings and take walks after work or after dinner, so I’m very used to staying active and would love bringing a dog along if they enjoy extra exercise. On weekends, I’m available all day and have a much more flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, playtime, or overnight care. I live in a two-level apartment/townhouse with plenty of space for pets to be comfortable and move around. There’s grass right outside for easy bathroom breaks and walks, plus a balcony and a dog park within my apartment complex for extra exercise and playtime. I keep a clean, safe, and calm environment and always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the home and the pet’s routine. I know consistency is important for animals, so I always try to keep them comfortable by following feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions closely.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive veterinary background and hands-on experience.

On a daily basis, I make time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I adjust my routine as needed to ensure pets receive proper attention and care. Weekly tasks like cleaning, extended exercise, and any special care are also built into my schedule. Overall, pet care fits smoothly into my routine and is something I prioritize alongside my work responsibilities. I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s specific needs, whether in my home or in a client’s home. Care includes feeding according to instructions, refreshing water, administering basic medications if needed, and maintaining a clean and safe environment. I ensure pets get appropriate exercise, walks, playtime, and mental stimulation, while also giving them affection and companionship. In a client’s home, I respect their routine and home rules, provide updates as requested, and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while their owners are away.

About: Hi! My name is Brooke, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. Dogs have always been a part of my family, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I currently have my own cat that I’ve cared for over the past 3 years, as well as my mini dachshund that I’ve had for 2 years, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets like family. I have about 8 years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and, of course lots of love and attention. I’ll be starting my first year teaching this fall, which means I have a very flexible schedule and lots of availability throughout the summer! I’ve also been babysitting since I was 15, which has taught me the importance of communication, responsibility, patience, and creating a safe and comfortable environment. I know every pet has different needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands! 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule and lots of availability throughout the summer before starting my first year teaching in the fall. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, overnight stays, and weekend care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific needs or preferences their pet may have. I know pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I do my best to make them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away. Safety is very important to me, and I always make sure pets are supervised, secure, and in a clean environment. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings during walks and outdoor time, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I also make sure the home is respected and kept tidy, and I’m happy to provide updates and pictures so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
