“Benjamin and his dad did a great job taking care of our baby for two weeks. We had to leave him last minute while he wasn’t feeling his best, and they made sure he got his medication and came back home healthy, happy, and full of energy. It was clear he was well cared for and loved during his stay. The only downside was communication. We didn’t get daily updates or pictures and only received check-ins when we reached out to ask. Also, while the booking was under Benjamin’s name, we only interacted with his dad, who handled drop-off and pick-up. Overall, we really appreciate the great care they gave him, and we’d recommend them for their kindness and attention to pets. With more consistent communication, it would’ve been a perfect experience.”
“I cannot express how great Donna is and how grateful we are with her for taking such good care of our fur baby. She made sure Chuchu had his medication when he had to, and she treated him as part of his family. Thanks Donna! See you next time!”
“Kelly took extremely good care of our two pugs. One is 5 and the other is not quite 2. She has a yard where they could run and play which I am sure they loved because we do not have a yard they can play off leash on (more like a tick farm). The boys came home very happy and have collapsed on our laps to recuperate for their next adventure. I will book Kelly & Brian again when the need arises.”
“Very satisfied, sitter provided photos and updates of my pet during his stay. He looked like he enjoyed himself and was very well taken care of. Will use Ms. Colleen in the future.”
“We love Brett and Christian so much! Raina always has the best time and is so well cared for. He was super responsive when we got in a pinch during our trip & very flexible. We very highly recommend!!”
“I found Hope last minute for a 2 week trip. She immediately sent me a message asking about my pups and letting me know that she keeps their schedules as much the same as possible. This edged out the other offer I received (the other person just accepted my request but never sent a follow up message). The dogs were at ease with her immediately. She sent me pictures of the dogs every day with updates. I was concerned if my pups would want to come home with me! They had a great time and Hope was aweosme! I will definitely use Hope again!”
“Steven has taken great care of our dogs on a few separate occasions now. He sends daily photos and updates which our family loves to see when we are away. We are thankful to have found him!”
“We made a last minute booking with Becky after our initial River sitter canceled. We were impressed with her thoroughness and screening process which made us feel very comfortable leaving our pup with her. Penny had a wonderful stay with Becky! Her home and yard are beautiful and very dog friendly. Penny came home happy and exhausted ! Becky is a delightful person who truly loves her furry visitors! We highly recommend Becky and would definitely book another stay for Penny when we are in Huntsville.”
“Stephanie is fantastic. She keeps you updated daily with videos and pictures. It is clear that she loves the dogs. She figured our boys personalities and gave them the attention they needed.”
“Johnny and Meaghan were absolutely wonderful! We will use them everytime from now on. They treat them like family. We received photos and videos throughout their stay. You won’t regret leaving your babies here.”
“Deborah was beyond phenomenal. I received multiple pictures and detailed updates every day my sweet Elle was away from home. I felt so relieved and there was no stress at all with Elle in her care. She is attentive to my dog and her dogs playing and is very consistent with commands when feeding and playing. She even brought the pups inside for rest breaks so they wouldn’t overheat. I will book every time I can with Deborah. 6 out of 5 stars.”
“My husband and I both travel for work. Sometimes it's difficult to plan ahead for a dog sitter. Shame was AMAZING with working with our schedules and crazy hours. She even allowed us to extend our dogs' stay in story notice with no hesitation. The dogs were well taken care of and she kept in touch with us the entire time to let us know how they were doing. We will ONLY try to book with Shume from now on!”
“We had a great experience with Melanie! Max was taken well care of for the two nights he stayed with her! She took care of all his needs and treated him just like her own! She was good about texting me through out his stay to tell me how he was doing and also sent lots of pictures! He seemed happy and loved while we were gone! We look forward to using her again soon!!”
“Jealous was a great communicator! I really felt like she cared and was in touch whenever necessary. I would certainly use her again. I received pictures and updates regularly. I would definitely use her again.”
“I highly recommend Mollie! She was absolutely phenomenal with Hazel and regularly provided updates and photos. Knowing my dog was in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind while I was on vacation. She will be perfect for any of your pup’s needs!”
“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
“Aram kept my dog for a full day and overnight stay, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of my boy and kept me updated throughout his stay with photos, videos, and frequent messages. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well taken care of. Aram has a beautiful home with a huge backyard that my dog absolutely loved. He clearly had an amazing time! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Aram is the best there is! You will not be disappointed. She is officially my go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much, Aram, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️🐾”

“Savannah did a compete a thorough job of taking care of Winston's needs. Feeding the tropical fish and keeping the water level up to normal was also a duty. She brought in mail and packages to earn a top rating in my book!”
“Callie did a great job. One of cats is very shy and Callie was super patient with her and even got her to come out play. Callie also went above and beyond and reset our auto feeder for us when it turned off.”
“Kayla was absolutely fantastic! I would recommend her again and again! She went above and beyond and we honestly can't thank her enough! Her communication was always quick, she treated our kitties so kindly! 100/10”
“Makoto did some drop in visits for my cats and I could not be any more grateful for the work that was done! She went above and BEYOND when she rode her bike to my house because of some car troubles to ensure my cats were still checked on.🥹 I have a cat with a stress disorder and Makoto made sure to keep me updated on his wellbeing, while also keeping my more social cat happy and entertained. She sent many photos along with a detailed summary of each visit. I would 100% recommend for cat care!”
“There’s no other words to describe Allison other than amazing! We have been using her services for severalllll years and each time she is awesome! She has literally watched our animals grow up and has loved them thru all of it!”
“Audrey was absolutely amazing and was clearly made to care for cats. We loved the detail and photos she provided with each visit. Will absolutely book her again next trip!”
“This is the first time I've ever needed to hire a pet sitter for my senior cat, so I was very nervous about having a stranger in my home and how my fur baby would react. However, Jennifer eased my mind about the whole process. She was understanding and communicative, which was greatly appreciated. This was just an an overnight trip, but she will be taking care of him again soon when I'll be gone longer. It's such a relief to know I can get some R&R knowing that my pet and my home are in good hands. ?”
“Vivien did an excellent job caring for my aging feline on the 4th of July when I had to be away from her. Throughout the evening of fireworks explosions, Vivien kept my Kitty calm and soothed her so that she felt safe. She stayed with her overnight and left when all was well the next morning. The peace of mind this gave me was tremendous. Her communication with me was excellent and she left my home in the same great condition that she found it. I definitely recommend Vivien for you Feline or Canine pet sitting needs and for overnight stays if necessary. I will definitely be calling on Vivian again for her pet care services.”
“Bless you for coming to save the day!!! Looking at these pics they clearly loved you LOL so I’m glad you guys had fun together!!! Thank you so much and we will absolutely book you again for our future outings!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Hope was great! She sent several updates during the day and made sure my dog was comfortable. She was also very flexible and was able to book us last minute. I’ll definitely be using her again!”
“Ben is one of the best dog sitters Lamby’s met! He was available last minute and even helped us with transport as we only had our RV and finding a pet friendly taxi in town was challenging. Lamb Chop almost wanted to stay with Ben he had such a good day, and he was perfectly tuckered out and content after a fun time.”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs since I was a young child. Dogs are a joy and I love having them around. Each and every dog I’ve cared for gets plenty of attention within my household. Special care requests will be accommodated as much as possible. I am retired and a stay at home dad. This allows me to be home with your fur baby throughout the day and night. Your pup will have constant and consistent supervision throughout the day. If I need to leave the house for any reason, all dogs will be put in their safe place. I have a fenced yard and three small friendly dogs. I can crate your pup if requested or easily separate any dogs when needed. I do have plenty of dog toys for your pup to enjoy. During feeding time, all dogs are separated and watched closely.

About: I have 3 years of experience caring for my own Border Collie, so I’m very comfortable with active, energetic dogs and understand the importance of regular exercise, attention, and playtime. I also regularly care for a friend’s dog when their family travels to Korea, sometimes for about two months at a time. During these extended stays, I provide daily feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I personally provide all pet care for my Rover bookings and will be the sole caregiver for the pets in my care. I treat every dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I have my own Border Collie. I’m used to planning my day around feeding, walks, playtime, and exercise. My schedule is flexible, so I can give your dog plenty of attention and make sure they get the care and activity they need throughout the day. I have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of exercise. My home also has a friendly Border Collie who is comfortable being around other dogs. Three children live in the home—one in high school, one in middle school, and one in 5th grade—and they are used to being around dogs and love animals. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I personally make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, and a safe and comfortable place to relax. I’ll treat your dog like family while they’re staying in my home.
About: I’ve been around and cared for dogs since I was a child, so working with animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have seven dogs of my own, which has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, ages, sizes, energy levels, and individual needs. My experience includes feeding and maintaining routines, walking and exercise, potty breaks, crate routines, playtime and enrichment, basic oral medications, and caring for both puppies and senior dogs. Managing a large pack has also taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog’s behavior, comfort level, and personality. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I will treat every pet I care for with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. 🐾❤️ I currently work as an independent DoorDash driver, which allows me to create my own schedule and gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. I can plan my DoorDash hours around my Rover bookings, allowing me to prioritize the pets in my care and give them plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and extended care. Because my work schedule is flexible, I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pet’s normal routine and needs. I also care for my own dogs daily, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I understand the importance of consistency, regular potty breaks, exercise, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention. My goal is to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible, rather than expecting your pet to adjust to mine. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I have a fully fenced-in backyard with three security cameras, which provides additional monitoring and peace of mind. Dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of playtime. I have seven dogs of my own, so I’m experienced with managing a multi-dog household and paying attention to each dog’s personality, boundaries, and comfort level. Introductions are handled carefully, and dogs can be separated when needed so everyone has their own safe and comfortable space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their normal routine and follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any household or safety rules. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and closely supervised environment where every pet is treated like family.

“We cannot recommend Ms. Alyssa enough. Whether it is for training or caring/walking, her compassion, patience and knowledge is unmatched. She really takes the time to not only teach/correct the pup, she also educates us as pet parents. Thank you for loving and caring for Jade! Looking forward to booking more sessions and walks.”
“Danielle is leash training and has made great progress in a short period of time. She also has taken the time to share her strategies so we can reinforce the training on our own. We are excited to continue. Danielle is very easy to communicate with and responds quickly. We had to reschedule due to local storms and the stress that this causes our boys. But she was mindful to check in and verify that it was what we preferred.”

About: Please Cat friendly dogs only if staying in our home. House cleaner by day. Since I was vey young I always had a special bone in my body for animals especially dogs. They're the joy in our hearts and the light of our lives. I live my life by the motto: I want to be the person my dog believes I am. I am sweet, loving, stern, and giving to my furry friends. I enjoy the presence of dogs & cats but I cannot have cats in my home due to an allergy in the family. I love to cuddle them and reward them for their good behavior. Feeding time is the happiest time for us! Walks are so comforting and much appreciated, I am fit and love going on walks. Thanks So much Jessi. Animal lover 💕 Open Availability for cuddles. I love spending time with dogs and cats. I miss my furbaby so much recently lost her to cancer and this has been helping me so much. I have a fenced back yard and cool AC indoor home. I love snuggling with pups and taking them out as needed. I am even able to make them homemade meals if necessary :)

“Benjamin and his dad did a great job taking care of our baby for two weeks. We had to leave him last minute while he wasn’t feeling his best, and they made sure he got his medication and came back home healthy, happy, and full of energy. It was clear he was well cared for and loved during his stay. The only downside was communication. We didn’t get daily updates or pictures and only received check-ins when we reached out to ask. Also, while the booking was under Benjamin’s name, we only interacted with his dad, who handled drop-off and pick-up. Overall, we really appreciate the great care they gave him, and we’d recommend them for their kindness and attention to pets. With more consistent communication, it would’ve been a perfect experience.”
“Very satisfied, sitter provided photos and updates of my pet during his stay. He looked like he enjoyed himself and was very well taken care of. Will use Ms. Colleen in the future.”
“We love Brett and Christian so much! Raina always has the best time and is so well cared for. He was super responsive when we got in a pinch during our trip & very flexible. We very highly recommend!!”
“We made a last minute booking with Becky after our initial River sitter canceled. We were impressed with her thoroughness and screening process which made us feel very comfortable leaving our pup with her. Penny had a wonderful stay with Becky! Her home and yard are beautiful and very dog friendly. Penny came home happy and exhausted ! Becky is a delightful person who truly loves her furry visitors! We highly recommend Becky and would definitely book another stay for Penny when we are in Huntsville.”

“Deborah was beyond phenomenal. I received multiple pictures and detailed updates every day my sweet Elle was away from home. I felt so relieved and there was no stress at all with Elle in her care. She is attentive to my dog and her dogs playing and is very consistent with commands when feeding and playing. She even brought the pups inside for rest breaks so they wouldn’t overheat. I will book every time I can with Deborah. 6 out of 5 stars.”
“My husband and I both travel for work. Sometimes it's difficult to plan ahead for a dog sitter. Shame was AMAZING with working with our schedules and crazy hours. She even allowed us to extend our dogs' stay in story notice with no hesitation. The dogs were well taken care of and she kept in touch with us the entire time to let us know how they were doing. We will ONLY try to book with Shume from now on!”

“Shaquita kept our poodle Lily for 9 days and Lily required medication and more care due to her age and kidney failure. This is our second time with Shaquita and she took wonderful care of Lily and we will definitely use her again!”
“Aram kept my dog for a full day and overnight stay, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of my boy and kept me updated throughout his stay with photos, videos, and frequent messages. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well taken care of. Aram has a beautiful home with a huge backyard that my dog absolutely loved. He clearly had an amazing time! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, Aram is the best there is! You will not be disappointed. She is officially my go-to dog sitter from now on! Thank you so much, Aram, for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️🐾”

If they have any, it can be met by me using my lengthy experience we’re caring for all types of animals.
“She was amazing in her service as my dog is a medical service dog. I was so happy to see that my girl was left in good hands and treated like a part of their family. Also, the sitter was extremely flexible with my travel, inconveniences and insured that my girl was taking care of the entire time. I can’t recommend her highly enough for her wonderful work and the fact that she is fantastic at sharing the daily activities While your animal is in her care so you can rest assured that they aren’t being just left in a kennel and not loved. I will be using her services moving forward as much as I can for my travel issues as I am very particular for where my dog goes and to be offered the country experience alongside the family love that her home offers is topped to your service for an affordable price.”

“Kelsey and her family provided safe and loving home for my two cats during my travel. She sent frequent updates with pictures. Her kids are wonderful with animals. One of the pictures shows Kelsey's little daughter gently petting and kissing my cat. It is so beautiful that I'm going to frame it.”
“Cassie is amazing. She made sure my pup was well taken care of and just as spoiled as can be. I also really enjoyed getting updates and photos of how she was doing. Definitely recommend and will use again!”
