“Kristie is no longer Mrs. Kristie she’s Aunt Kristie!! She loves my Oscar just like her own. She provides updates and pictures through out the days and I never worry when he is with Aunt Kristie! She’s the best!!!”
“Chris and Sore were amazing sitters and I had great peace of mind knowing that there were 2 people looking after my dog! Even though I had minimal service and couldn’t respond to the messages, they still sent pictures every day and Night and I was able to receive the texts to know he was doing great and had friends to play with. The socialization with other dogs was a highlight for him as we have just moved and he has been missing his friends. Thank you Chris and Sore!”
“We had a family emergency & Whitney accepted our puppers with a few hours notice!! She & her family are excellent with caring for others’s furry family members!! We appreciate y’all so much!! Thank you!!”

“Cassandra was amazing! She watched my high-energy GSP mix puppy at her house for 6 nights and Piper came home happy and tired! Despite our trip putting us in a different time zone with limited service, Cassandra kept us updated on how Piper was doing and sent lots of pictures. When Piper got too adventurous outside and found herself with a bug bite that caused some swelling in her face, Cassandra let us know right away and went through lengths to get in touch with our vet and her own vet to treat with Benadryl. I felt like Piper was loved and taken care of the whole time! Would recommend Cassandra to anyone, but especially those with pups who need to be played with and exercised to burn off energy!”

She left us great notes and pictures each visit to help us feel at ease. And our cats were very happy when we returned home! Would definitely use her again!!”
“Jean is very thoughtful and puts in effort into taking care of your pets and your home while you're away. He was very loving to my cats and sent many picture updates to let me know how they were even the plants at my house! He's great would definitely book again! 💙💙💙”
“Madison’s experience at the vet gives our family such confidence that we can leave our dog in the best of hands. Her knowledge on how to handle “skiddish” dogs was perfect for our animal. She’s always on time and dependable. Boba loves her and that’s the most important thing to us. I would 100% recommend her to watch any type of animal you have.”
About: Hi! My name is Adrian, and I've been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I grew up helping care for large dogs and have always been the person my family relies on to feed, play with, and look after our pets. I especially love large breeds and enjoy spending time outdoors, playing, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'll treat your pets with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'm currently very flexible and have plenty of availability throughout the week for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Because my schedule is open, I can dedicate plenty of attention to your pets instead of rushing between commitments. I communicate regularly, send photo updates, and always make sure owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. For everyone's safety and comfort, I currently only offer care in my client's home. My family dog is not comfortable around unfamiliar animals, so I don't provide boarding in my own home. When caring for pets in your home, I carefully follow your routines, make sure fresh water is always available, maintain feeding and bathroom schedules, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a clean home
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!
“Jessie was amazing!! She was very dependable and took great care of our cat, Luna, while were on vacation. Our shy cat warmed up to her very quickly and was happy to see Jessie each day. We loved that Jessie sent us pictures and videos with daily updates. I could tell that Luna was in great hands and much less stressed. Jessie treated Luna just like her own fur baby and gave her all the love and attention she is used to getting while we are home. Overall, this was such a great experience, and I would recommend Jessie to anyone. We will definitely book again next time.”
“Kayla took exceptionally great care of our cat this week! Sent updates with pictures at each visit. We’ve already rebooked her for cat care during our next trip! Would definitely recommend 💗”
About: I have lived with cats my entire life and currently have five of them. When neighbors or family members are away, I occasionally take over to make sure they are well fed and treated.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, so caring for dogs comes naturally to me. I have experience with all breeds and sizes, and I take the time to get to know each one—their personality, routines, and what makes them feel comfortable. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, or more laid-back, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime throughout the day. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment in my home where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I stick closely to their usual routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide—so they feel secure and at ease. I have a fenced in yard and several kennels of all sizes available. My goal is to make your pets stay as comfortable and stress free as possible.
“Flash had a great day in Doggie Daycare with Emily and her family! They played with him and took him for a walk. They were very accommodating in setting times for Flash and me to meet them and for dropping him off and picking him up. They followed the feeding instructions and made room for his dog bed and toys in their home. I really liked it that they lived in a beautiful neighborhood with sidewalks and that they had a nice fenced in back yard. You can tell they love dogs and it made me happy that Flash was comfortable with them. I recommend them as dog sitters and plan to book with them again!”
About: I am a highly efficient caregiver with a passion for animal care and safety; dedicated to providing exceptional services for you & your fur baby! I currently stay at home with my son and two amazing dogs! One older chocolate lab and a one year old corgi, both with very different personalities and needs! I enjoy spending time with them and loving them. I have a large yard that I am able to let the pups play in or coming by to let your pets out in the comfort of their own yard and home. My babies are inside lounging around throughout the day, but spend time playing outside as well! I am very flexible with whatever you and your pups need.
“Amy has been watching Greta, my very active GSP puppy, these past couple of weeks and so far it has been great. She has a dog and a toddler that gets plenty of interaction with our puppy and Greta is always happy to go back to see her new friends. I am very appreciative of Amy’s willingness to work with our busy schedules that fluctuate for drop off and pick up.”
About: I have over three years experience of volunteering at a pet clinic, as well as owning everything from a Standard poodle to tea cup Chihuahua! I am a stay at home wife, working primarily from home within Odenville AL. Therefore my schedule is always flexible and open! This also means I will always be with your pup or cat during boarding! I have a fenced in yard, harnesses, and daily walks. We always keep the TV on so they do not feel lonely while we’re at work, along with constant trips to the dog park.
“I absolutely cannot compromise on is knowing my sweet puppy Mango is not just safe, but truly loved, happy, and well-cared for while I’m away. That’s where Adelle comes in, and she has been nothing short of a miracle. Adelle has given me something priceless: true peace of mind. Knowing Mango is in her loving hands allows me to focus completely on my craft without that worry in the back of my mind. For a chef who lives and breathes their passion, that trust is everything. Adelle, I honestly couldn’t repay you in this lifetime for the comfort and joy you bring to both Mango and me. You’re not just a dog sitter you’re a friend, again thank you so much ❤️🤍💙⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥭 - Chef Jay & Mango ✨✨”
“Poppy is special, not just to me, but to everyone she meets so traveling with her can be a challenge. I always want to make sure she is cared for in a loving, safe, and comfortable environment. After a last-minute confirmation that I needed to be in Talladega for three days, I was extremely lucky to find Cassandra and her husband. They took wonderful care of Poppy during the day while I worked, and I was still able to have her with me overnight, which made the whole trip so much easier. Cassandra was responsive, communicative, and sent great photo updates, which gave me total peace of mind. I highly recommend her for any pet-sitting needs in the Birmingham area especially if you’re traveling between Birmingham and Talladega. Great experience all around!”

About: Hi, my name is Angie. I currently live in Lincoln, Alabama, and I'm the proud owner of three French Bulldogs — two of which are exotic Isabella New Shades.

About: Hey there, my name is Holly and I love working with dogs. I have spent the last 10 plus years working with dogs at a local doggie day care facility. While working there I obtained a lot of knowledge and eventually earned a position as a supervisor and managed new hires on how to work dog day care yards. During my time I gained a lot of valuable insight on dog behavior while working in the dog day care yard. I also have owned as many as three dogs at one time. I have hosted several of my friend's dogs for overnight stays along with my own dogs and I would just love the opportunity to give them the best care and love a dog could desire. I have a passion for fur babies and treat them as if they are my own. I have a special relationship with my veterinarian and I have experience in giving dog medication if necessary. I am conveniently located to my personal veterinarian and other veterinarians as well as a emergency vet in the event your fur baby suddenly becomes ill. Having owned numerous dogs over my lifetime I am keenly aware of what it takes to attend to senior dogs. I have a lot of green space in my neighborhood for a comfortable walk on a leash and potty breaks. I am currently retired and available to baby sit your fur baby anytime including weekdays/nights, weekends, and holidays. I am flexible and willing to accommodate your fur baby's needs along side my own fur baby, Pinkie. I have a lot of green space in my neighborhood for a comfortable walk on a leash and potty breaks along with my fur baby, Pinkie for company and companionship. I am all about creature comforts and whatever your baby is used to for the best experience. Your baby is more than welcome to lay on the couch, sleep in my bed or can be crated if that is what they enjoy the most. I also offer Dog TV for viewing pleasure. You can expect lot's of cuddle time, potty breaks, walks, treats and toys to play with but most of all LOVE. I also have a habit of sending video's and pictures of your baby while you are away.
About: As a loving and dedicated pet sitter, parent, advocate & guardian, I bring a wealth of experience, dedication, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I have had the pleasure of caring for and training a variety of pets, from playful puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats with special needs. My passion for animals drives me to provide the best care possible, ensuring your pets feel loved and secure while you're away. Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs; whether it's a hike in the woods or cuddles on the couch, following their specific feeding schedule, administering medication, or engaging in their favorite playtime activities.

About: 30 years of experience having dogs & cats as part of the family. Now passing my love of caring for animals down to my daughters & they want to help care for as many as possible. We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, dog walking, doggie daycare, & more. I am currently a homeschool mom and have a very flexible schedule. We will be as accommodating as possible for your pets individual needs & treat them as part of our family. We have a huge fenced in back yard. Two girls that love animals more than anything in life. Your dog will have fun and be well cared for while you are out of town! We will send you pictures and updates during your time away. And I can easily crate your dog if needed, (but will only if you do this at home).
About: I have over nine years of experience caring for dogs, including one year as a boarder. Growing up, I fostered dogs and cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, but since I can’t have one where I live, getting to walk and care for them every day brings me so much joy! Whether your pup needs extra playtime, careful attention, or a dependable walker, I’m here to help. As an online student at UAB, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks and pet care throughout any day of the week. I’m usually up by 6 AM, so I’m available for early morning walks if needed. However, I prefer not to do nighttime walks for safety reasons. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or an afternoon play session, I’m happy to be there! I provide pet care in clients’ homes, following all given instructions to ensure consistency and comfort for your dog. Whether it’s walking, exercise, feeding schedules, or crate time, I follow routines closely to keep pets happy and stress-free. I prioritize safety, trust, and personalized care to make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’ve had and cared for my own dogs most of my life, and now that I’m retired and live alone, I truly enjoy meeting and spending time with new pups. I love getting to know all their unique personalities—it’s one of the best parts of what I do! Their company and the feeling of being needed keep me young, and I genuinely enjoy having someone to care for. I’ve been with Rover on and off for over 5 years, occasionally taking breaks due to health reasons, but my love and passion for animals has never changed. I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away, if you’d like. I do have a small chiweenie named Bella who is also a senior citizen. She’s sweet, quiet, and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her chunky little body. She’s never had any issues with other dogs—even larger ones—and is happy to share her space. Rest assured, I’ll care for your baby as if they were my own. 🐾❤️ I’m available full-time and very flexible with scheduling, since I no longer work. I’m happy to provide care at whatever time or date works best for you—just give me about three days’ notice so I can plan accordingly. From time to time, I do watch my son’s three grand-pups, but I always try to block those dates out in advance so there’s no overlap or confusion. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority! I do want to be fully transparent—I live in a trailer in a quiet trailer park, which unfortunately isn’t an option to select on Rover (they only allow “home,” “apartment,” or “farm”). While my neighborhood might seem a little rough around the edges, I promise it’s much friendlier than it looks. All of my neighbors are senior citizens and truly some of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. My best friend lives next door and helps keep an eye on my little one if I ever need to step out for errands or groceries, so your dog will always be safe and looked after. I also have a fully fenced-in backyard and typically leave the back door open so dogs can go in and out as they please. That said, if you prefer your pup stays inside and is only let out for potty breaks, I’m more than happy to follow your routine. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. 🐾❤️
About: As someone who has had pets in the home for as long as I can remember, I know it is important for them to be in a loving, patient, and attentive environment and I thrive in providing environments that are such! I work from home and I’m a SAHM, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and supervision throughout the day. I have a large fenced in backyard and only two cats inside the home. I make sure that the pets that I care for have enough space of their own but are also attended to closely.

“Sent tons of pictures which was much appreciated, very communicative and definitely made me feel at ease about my puppy! He’s so high energy and is always super crazy but he was tired when I got home after their walk/ play time! 11/10 recommend, and will definitely be booking with her again.

Preferred scheduling hours: Morning Visits: 8 AM–11 AM Midday Visits: 11 AM–2 PM Afternoon Visits: 2 PM–5 PM Evening Visits: 5 PM–7 PM I’m experienced with: • Puppies and structured potty routines • Senior dogs • Multi-dog households • Medication schedules • High-energy dogs needing exercise • Anxious or routine-based dogs needing calm, patient care During drop-in visits and walks, I focus on safety, communication, routine, and personalized attention. Owners can expect reliable updates, photos, and attentive care during every visit so they feel informed and confident while away from their pets 🖤 Your dog’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities 🖤 I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home, so I focus heavily on dependable communication, calm handling, and maintaining a clean, structured environment during every visit. I believe dogs thrive best with patience, consistency, routine, and clear boundaries. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, energy level, comfort needs, and daily routine so care feels as stress-free and familiar as possible while you’re away. Safety practices include: • Secure leash and harness handling • Careful monitoring during walks and outdoor time • Slow introductions and supervised interactions • Clean feeding and water routines • Close attention to medications and instructions • Monitoring behavior, appetite, mood, and energy levels • Maintaining locked doors, gates, and household safety routines I’m especially mindful of anxious dogs, senior dogs, puppies, and pets who need extra patience or structure. Some dogs need energetic play and exercise, while others simply need calm companionship and reassurance. I tailor care to what helps your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I also know that communication builds trust. Owners can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout each booking so you always feel informed and connected while away from your pet. My goal is simple: to create a calm, reliable, and loving environment where dogs feel secure and owners feel complete peace of mind 🖤
About: I’ve had dogs (&cats) for as long as I can remember. I adore animals and promise to provide the best care to them and your home! I have a very open schedule at the moment and I’m very “go with the flow”. I’m willing to make accommodations or changes as needed that will give us both the best experience. I’m always mindful of owners requests and requirements of care while also prioritizing your pets safety and comfort while in my care. I treat my own pets with love and respect and will do the same for anyone else’s.
About: I love dog. I’m a very out doors person. I play in college so with me I love taking them on walks the dog park. I’m currently a student-athlete playing volleyball at Birmingham, and I’m home all day after practice and have a flexible schedule. I’m very disciplined with my time, so I can reliably care for pets early mornings, evenings, or throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m doing this to help support my schooling, so I take it seriously. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have a spacious apartment and a pet washing station so I can always give your pet a bath and a pet-friendly home where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease. I also have experience being around other dogs, so I’m attentive to their behavior and make sure everyone is supervised and comfortable.
About: I have taken care of many dogs and including my own! I love to see the different variety of dogs and how each one has their own little of style of being taken care of! Currently a college student so it would be a perfect fit in my schedule and kind of creating my own work schedule but still having a job! Making sure i know where to locate everything in the clients home and how many treats the dog may get! Just asking those important questions to make sure i can provide the best care for your fur babies!
About: i love animals of all kind, kitties and doggies have a special place in my heart, i grew up and live around caring for them so i know a thing or two!! 🐶🐱 I’m currently working at my mothers shop and will be doing rover on the side, I can and will work 7 days a week 24 hours a day. Safety is a huge concern in my rule book, I will always prioritize the animals. I understand when meeting new pets you must be patient and understanding as it takes time. This field is required.
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

“Kristie is no longer Mrs. Kristie she’s Aunt Kristie!! She loves my Oscar just like her own. She provides updates and pictures through out the days and I never worry when he is with Aunt Kristie! She’s the best!!!”
“Chris and Sore were amazing sitters and I had great peace of mind knowing that there were 2 people looking after my dog! Even though I had minimal service and couldn’t respond to the messages, they still sent pictures every day and Night and I was able to receive the texts to know he was doing great and had friends to play with. The socialization with other dogs was a highlight for him as we have just moved and he has been missing his friends. Thank you Chris and Sore!”
“We had a family emergency & Whitney accepted our puppers with a few hours notice!! She & her family are excellent with caring for others’s furry family members!! We appreciate y’all so much!! Thank you!!”
“Lesley was such a great person to trust with my puppy. Not only did she take great care of her but she also sent photos with updates and of the dogs playing and having fun. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Tatiana was awesome! I got lots of updates with pictures and videos and communication and I knew my Daisy was in good hands! Daisy had so much fun playing and she got lots of cuddles. We will definitely book again!”
“Addison was wonderful and so great with my pup! I enjoyed her daily picture updates. Riley got plenty of exercise as Addison took her to the park every day! We will be booking with Addison again!”
“Cassandra was amazing! She watched my high-energy GSP mix puppy at her house for 6 nights and Piper came home happy and tired! Despite our trip putting us in a different time zone with limited service, Cassandra kept us updated on how Piper was doing and sent lots of pictures. When Piper got too adventurous outside and found herself with a bug bite that caused some swelling in her face, Cassandra let us know right away and went through lengths to get in touch with our vet and her own vet to treat with Benadryl. I felt like Piper was loved and taken care of the whole time! Would recommend Cassandra to anyone, but especially those with pups who need to be played with and exercised to burn off energy!”
“Amy was fantastic! She picked him up and dropped him off on time, sent pictures and videos daily, and was very kind. He had a wonderful time! Will most definitely be using her again ?”
“Charlie was amazing with my dog, Shadow!!! Her and her girls were so sweet to him, sent pics of him living his best life everyday, and we're super accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process, start to finish! We will definitely book with Charlie again!”
“Matt was wonderful! He took great care of our sweet pup for a week & sent great updates of him. It made going on vacation so much less stressful knowing our dog was being well taken care of and was having such a fun time! Thank you so much Matt!”
“Sarah is the best! This is the first time we have used Rover and Sarah exceeded expectations! We received photo updates of our dog during her stay. Pancake came back a very happy girl!”
“Wonderful experience! He took great care of our 3 dogs and attended to all of their needs as well as administering medication to our senior golden retriever. We will use Harold again in the future!”
“As always Ray J is the BEST!!!! He was soooo accommodating with me running late to drop Mercedes off!!! He sent pictures and videos of my baby and she was soooo loved!!!! Definitely will use Ray J everytime he’s available!!”
“Rebecca was amazing with Brooklyn. They connected instantly! She kept us updated during Brooklyn’s stay and was very accommodating when we had to pickup later than planned. Totally appreciated her!”
“Danielle is the absolute best, and I’ll hear nothing to the contrary. This was my first time using Rover, and the sitter I originally booked cancelled on me morning of, but Danielle accepted our last minute request on a holiday weekend. I have an old dog with arthritis and medication who can be a picky eater at times, but that was no issue for Danielle. She not only made me feel at ease with constant updates and pictures, but she exercised and socialized him, and he may like her more than me now. My only regrets with this review are that everyone else will book her now and she’ll be unavailable next time we need boarding for a weekend”
“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer. I honestly think Su is going to have separation anxiety from Freya, she loved playing with her so much!! Ashley sent daily updates with photos/videos. We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”
