“Elaine was the best dog sitter we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! While we were out of town, she made sure to send consistent, entertaining updates about our sweet Daisy girl. We thoroughly appreciate the amount of love that you have for what you do, Elaine! We’ll see you again in a few months!!”
“Christina made sure that Dolly was living her best life while she stayed at their home. Communication was excellent, photos were definitely appreciated, and we will certainly use Christina & Gabriel again. Dolly thought she was the one on vacation!”

“Susan and her family are amazing! They were extremely accommodating to my short-notice request for a sitter and our little Bandit had a blast! It's always hard being away from our furry family members, but Susan kept us updated on his stay and included a ton of pictures! Bandit enjoyed his stay...so much that I think he was a little depressed when he got home! Thank you, Susan, for providing such a loving home away from home for Bandit! He's looking forward to his next stay!”
“Kristin is great! Bella stayed a few days with her, her first spend the night away in a very long time. We are so thankful to have found her and didn’t worry at all while we were gone.”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals. I have a love for big and small! Ever since I was 11 years old and received my very own fur baby our house has never been empty of one. We treat our animals like they are family and I will care for yours the same way! I an a SAHM so I am mostly free! Just have to pick up our son from school around 2:30 in the afternoons but other than that I am available! We just recently lost our 9 year old German shepherd so I know and am comfortable with senior dogs! We now just have our Siberian husky Myia who is our old lady lol I will take care of your animals with love as I do with mine and also play with them!
“Taylor is amazing! She and her family welcomed my kitties, Lucius and Bella, into their home with welcome arms. It was a stressful week as we made settlement on our new home, but one thing I did not need to worry about was my cats as I knew they were well cared for by Taylor.”
“We took our fur baby Molly to stay with Cheryl. Cheryl was awesome! She was very loving toward Molly. Her and her husband Cliff took good care of Molly and sent me several pics throughout her stay. She was always quick to answer texts when I wanted to see how she was doing. I would definitely recommend Cheryl to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
“We traveled from MN to vacation in Gulf Shores, AL. This was our first time using Rover. He has a wonderful yard/set up. We felt confident in leaving our Chocolate Lab with Corey for 5 nights. Corey is very easy going and mellow which we like (especially for our chocolate Lab puppy). I will recommend Corey to my family and friends.”
“Ashley is personable & great with our Lily. We usually don’t have her stay over on first visit but was very accommodating and great on last minute notice with situation. Ashley has an adorable little boy and great! Will highly recommend & will use again !! Thank you !!”
“Emily is wonderful because she has a peaceful and calm demeanor and she truly cares for your pet. I will definitely bring my dog, who is 14.5 years old, back to Emily to take care of her, when I come back for vacation. Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding care and support.”
“Kenny and Olga were fantastic! They had great communication, were super friendly and have a lovely, clean, safe home. I felt like Buster was very well taken care of. I would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future 😊”

“Erica never fails to give the BEST care and love to our babies while we travel. She’s so sweet and kind, and we love having such a reliable person to always turn to. ^_^”
“Lex was absolutely amazing and very accommodating! She took amazing care of my babies, she’s incredibly kind, and you can tell she takes pride in the work she does! Will definitely be hiring her again! 10/10”
“We had such a great experience with Ariel! She is reliable, caring, and an excellent communicator. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter!”
About: I have experience in long term pet sitting, senior dogs with medications, and can handle multiple dogs at once. I am clean, friendly, and very detail oriented. I am currently working part time as I get ready to move! I am pretty much always available for early mornings, late nights, and weekends! I am very organized and detail oriented. I care a lot for pets and can follow instructions easily. I am very patient, kind, and will leave your home in tip top shape after :)
“We left our two cats with them over the holiday and couldn’t be more pleased. The cats were happy when we picked them up and seemed content at their place. So grateful to have someone care for our babies and be able to travel without worry.”
“Caitlyn is amazing at what she does. She is beyond caring for your pets and goes the extra mile. She is very friendly, reliable, prompt, accommodating and makes booking a breeze, EVEN at the last minute and during busy holiday times! There are so many things I could say that highlight how wonderful Caitlyn is. Our 3 cats received the care and attention they needed, and our house was even kept tidy, (especially since our youngest cat was into tearing up our Christmas decorations, which Caitlyn took it upon herself to clean up every mess). We loved how Caitlyn pays attention to every detail! Before sitting she meets with your family and makes sure that she knows your pet(s): from treats, feeding and routine, down to the way they like to play and interact. We never worried a minute while we were out of town because she has EVERYTHING under control. It was such a comfort knowing that our pets could stay in their own environment and routine. We would HIGHLY recommend Caitlyn and her pet sitting services. She went above and beyond our expectations, she provided photos each day, very detailed Rover cards each day, and gave us brief text updates daily, as well. She is very trustworthy and we were very comfortable having her in our home. She was meticulous and detailed, and that was very appreciated. We are so grateful to have found her, especially during a holiday time, and can't wait to utilize her services again when traveling.”
About: Cats have been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I grew up with a cat who I had the privilege of caring for throughout his entire life, including his senior years, medication, diaper changes, and a strict feeding schedule. I also have experience caring for kittens, including bottle-feeding and providing the extra attention and love they need. Whether your cat is independent and prefers to do their own thing or is an affectionate, anxious cuddlebug who needs some extra reassurance, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐈⬛💕
About: Cats are one of the most misunderstood pets (in my opinion) but are genuinely the most loving animals ever. My two cats, Ace & Spade are my shadow. The second I sit down, they’re in my lap. Lay down? They’re coming to lay down right beside me. Cats are truly the best pets in the world. If you don’t like cats, we can’t be friends!
“Bo was an exceptional sitter!! I would give her more stars if I could. I have an extremely high maintenance senior cat who requires medication, a special diet (like preparing a buffet twice a day) and a list of other instructions. Bo took care of all of her needs. She gave me several updates per day and also sent a bunch of photos - great communication. Bo cared for my little diva like she was her own!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats for years and understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and love giving social cats plenty of attention and playtime. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and keeping their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll treat your cat like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: When I was younger I was surprised with my first cat at the age of 7, and while that same kitty is still alive, I’ve continued owning others. As well as working and caring for dogs, I also care for cats as well as exotics at the veterinary clinic for a year now. I’ve cared for the sweetest and cuddly cats to the, some would say, spicy cats, but either way I have given them the care and affection they all deserve!
“We love Courtney, she was so sweet with the boys! Sent me some adorable photos of them and we had a quick meet and greet just a couple days before on short notice, so that was super helpful and I greatly appreciated it. I’ll definitely be booking with her again eleven the time arrives. 😊”
About: I started working at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo in animal husbandry, then I ended up working at an animal hospital. I have been a veterinary technician for about 6 years. In this time I have gained a lot of medical experience with animals and have learned how to truly care for pets. I am able to care for older animals as well as any fur babies on medicine. I have a dog and a cat myself, so I know how hard it is to leave them to go on vacation. I am here to give your fur babies all the love and comfort so that you can go wherever you need to go without worrying. I am available to take care of your babies at any time of the week. I do have two pups of my own that I may have to go home to let out if staying at your home. If your babies are staying at our home then they will all get plenty of play time and couch naps. I am willing to come by a few times a day to let your animals out to use the bathroom, love on them, and feed them. I am also able to stay at the home if needed. I am willing to take your fur babies on walks if they need the extra exercise as well!
About: I have owned dogs for over 10 years. I own a bunny, and I care for my animals, and walk my dog everyday. My dogs have been my world since I was born. I love animals, I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I do full time college online, from home. I can be very flexible for times. I will be able to dog sit most of the time. We have a fenced in backyard. I feed, walk, and let out our dog everyday. I enjoy playing with my dog everyday! I love animals very much.
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers a quiet, independent environment, I’m committed to providing patient, attentive care that helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m experienced with daily feeding routines, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and providing companionship on your cat’s terms. I understand the importance of keeping cats safe, minimizing stress, and maintaining their normal routine. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is receiving reliable, loving care in your absence.
About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings. I do have a fenced yard for the zoomies and a neighborhood with a sidewalk for walks. I look forward to getting to know your family pets and working together :) I take bookings only when I know I will have plenty of time during your pets stay to be sure they’re being walked and supervised while running around the yard. I have a fenced in yard for letting your pets outside and a crate, if your pet is crate trained. I am happy to follow any special instructions that you may have for your pets.
About: I have had dogs in my house ever since I was a small child and have taken care of them and trained them in crates, bathrooms, etc. I help friends whenever they need me to come check on their pets or keep them at my place and enjoy being around animals. I currently work 8:30-5:00 full time but I have somewhat flexible hours and the ability to work from home some weeks. Even when I am in the office I would be able to leave for a visit or two during the work day. I have a very nice common area and will be happy to walk your dog as much as they need. I also have a 7 month lab pup named Rico who is the best boy and would love to play with your pup. He has been great with other dogs so far but can be a little hyper.
“Savannah was great! Very personable, communicated great, was able to do a last minute booking! Went above and beyond, cleaned up dishes and scooped boxes even when I said it wasn't necessary i was just gone 1 night. I will definitely hire again next time I need drop in care!”

“Dog owners! If you want a peace of mind and a wonderful, loving experience for your dog, Cheryl is the best person for your baby. Cheryl sent pictures all day, kept me abreast of Tootie's day, and provided delicious treats. Tootie was happy when I picked him up. That is important! Thank you Cheryl for loving my baby!”
“Elaine was incredible! She accommodated us on very short notice, even on the Friday of the long weekend. Everything about our experience with her, was perfect. She sent us pictures & updates too. We are very grateful for all of her help. I would 1000% recommend her services! Thank you so much. 😊🌞”

“I found a pet sitter for my dog Bruno on the Rover app while we enjoyed Orange Beach. Michael took great care of Bruno. His house is spacious and has a nice backyard, which was great for Bruno to play in. The communication was excellent; he sent me photos and updates. When I came back to pick up Bruno, he was very happy. Michael and his two dogs have amazing energy. Thanks, Michael! I definitely recommend him to other pet owners.”
“If I could leave 10 stars I would. Erica was AMAZING!!!! Highly recommend and would definitely use again!!! Thank you Erica for taking great care of our Pudding! He was sooo happy when I picked him up! He was literally smiling in the pictures she sent!! Happiest I’ve ever seen him at a sitter!! Best sitter I’ve ever used!!! God bless you Erica!!!”

About: I understand the need for wanting your furbaby to have care while you are away during the day. I want to help provide that service for others who love their dogs as much as I love mine. I have 2 dogs of my own and they are my babies, dogs bring such a joy to our lives and deserve to be treated well. Professionally I work in the medical field with humans, but love all different types of animals. I started dog sitting over 20 years ago when I was a teen in high school and have had a passion for dogs all my life. I look forward to hearing from you if you are interested in me providing care for your dog. Thank you! I am currently not working. I spend the majority of my days at home with my husband & 3 golden doodles. Most of my plans revolve around my dogs! I will be active & hands on with the pets I care for. They would not be left unattended. Whatever the preference for that pet- cuddles, pets, outdoor play time- I will be there & involved.
“Kenmarie was great with our dog and very flexible with our timing as we had to switch from daycare to boarding with short notice. It was a pleasure to meet her and our dog did not mind the separation because she provided such great care.”
About: Hi friends! Thanks for taking the time to read my bio. I'm here because I would LOVE to get some steps in with your fur baby! Or just chill and give them back scratches if thats their preference. I love all dogs, no matter their age or breed. Volunteering at shelters has been a hobby of mine since childhood. Ive been a dog walker for Wag! for years but am switching to Rover because the Wag app is terribly glitchy. My most recent adventure has been fostering shelter pups - we currently had a foster fail situation which is how I got my current fur child, Indie. I've always adopted shelter dogs; to include labs, pitbulls, mixed breeds, and now a goldendoodle! I joined Rover in hopes of doing it more because I enjoy helping busy people take care of their precious pups. I'm a FOND believer of spoiling your pets. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about my knowledge or experience. :) I'm currently in between jobs and have LOTS of time to love on your precious fur baby. Let's schedule some time together and make some memories! I'm in a 2 bedroom apartment with a friendly goldendoodle to keep your pup company. Our days consist of many walks, and going to the dog park. We have one in the complex but I also enjoy going to the city parks. I am happy to let your baby sleep in the bed with me or I can crate them. Whatever your preference is, let's talk about it.
About: Hi! I’m from the southern states and love beach walks and keeping active! I’d love to walk your pup! I have puppies of my own back home and could use some pup snuggles/walks! I have plenty of time to work around your schedule! I’d love to pick up some walks daily. I love closing my Apple Watch rings😁 so daily walks are a must for me. Even better with a doggy! I don’t prefer to do over nights or in my home since I don’t have the friendliest environment for a dog. However, I would love taking them on walks.
“Deke is great with Sunny and she loves visiting! He is super nice and takes great care of her, she gets lots of zoomies and Deke always sends lots of pics of all her fun. We love how great Deke is with her and she loves going to visit so much she gets excited when we pull on his street. Deke is great!”
About: Hello ! I just moved here from Virginia, and I want to tell you a bit about me. I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Always playing/taking on walks, feeding them, and giving cuddles. As a dog mom of two K understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your babies while you’re away. I regularly dog sat for a yellow lab and shih tzu in VA, and since moving here I adopted a second dog and i have been walking/doing drop in visits for other dogs near me, as seen in pictures ! I am a stay at home wife, so I’m available pretty much anytime. I do like getting my own pup at least an hour of play before leaving but that will be no issue I make sure I play with the pups very frequently, especially when I first get there and before I leave. I make sure to take them on 1-2 40 minute walks depending on how long i’m watching them for. One walk after they eat and one walk later on. I can brush them, feed them, play in the yard with them, etc.

“I was skeptical about trusting my 4month old baby with a complete stranger. However, Holly made My skepticism go away. Her communication skills are excellent. She informed me ahead of time that she was on the way, giving me time to get Chloe prepared for her walk. She greeted and let Chloe cuddle her for a few and off they went. I received pictures during the walk. Afterwards, my high energetic puppy come back home happy and low key for momma for that day.”
“Amazing service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She did everything I asked and took such great care of my dogs. She let them outside, gave them plenty of time to play, and made sure they got lots of attention. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for while I was away. Very reliable, caring, and trustworthy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets, and I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve adopted dogs since my early twenties and they have been my only kids since. I’ve been lucky to have loved 4. We adopted 2 puppies in March 2025 and it’s been so fun ( and busy) having little pups again. We’ve been to training classes and are working on our manners. We take our pups with us whenever we can and that includes, restaurants, outdoor markets, camping, boat rides, the river and beach. I am currently retired and would LOVE to care for your fur babies and make some money to spend on mine. Haha I’m pretty flexible and can adjust as needed. I have two 6 month old puppies right now and they are crate trained. They love to play and wrestle. We are still going outside to potty and play about every four to six hours just to stay on a schedule and keep them entertained. We do let our fur babies on the furniture and bed.
About: There’s not a pet in the world I’ve met that I didn’t get along with. Lots of experience with senior dogs and specialized diets for dietary restrictions. Certified medical assistant so broad medical knowledge that helps with animals as well. Right now, I’m flexible to do a lot of different services. I work in central Pensacola and can stop in for potty breaks and short walks during the work day and can do overnight stays if needed. I respect my client’s home, space, and furry family member. I was raised by military parents that instilled very good morals and values in me.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to reptiles, birds, and small animals. I currently have four cats of my own who are truly part of my family, and I’ve cared for friends’, neighbors’, and family members’ pets for many years. I’m comfortable caring for animals of all ages and personalities, including providing medication when needed. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for just as they would be in my own home. And yes, I’m always happy to spoil them a little, too! My work schedule is generally 3 PM–11 PM, although the exact hours can vary, so I ask for about one week’s notice whenever possible to make sure I can provide the best care for your pets.

I’m happy to schedule drop-in visits around my work hours, including before and after work. For house sitting, when I’m not working, I’ll be at your home with your pets. When I do need to leave, it will primarily be to care for my own animals at home before returning. I’m committed to making sure your pets receive consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout their stay. The only exception would be if a pet requires specialized care or treatment during my work hours. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit.

When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, litter care, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: My name is Casey. I have been working with dogs professionally for about a decade in Washington state. Ran a small boarding and training business in WA. Trained hundreds of dogs with their owners in sport, obedience, group classes, service, and behavioral modification. Me and my family are moving south to the Mobile area and I am exited to start working with dogs again in a different area and meet all the new personalities the dogs have! Currently waiting on our permanent residence. We will be buying in the mobile area within a month or 2 with acreage but our current rental may not allow boarding but I can still do private training sessions and house/pet sitting. Will update this as soon as everything is set up! Kennels will be spaced apart, all dogs with behavioral problems like anxiety or reactivity will have their own quiet area. All the social dogs will get to play during the day. Every dog gets 1 on 1 time and there will be a fenced yard to rotate dogs throughout the day.
About: Worry free loving c💗re is my priority! I understand the stress of leaving my baby with a stranger but I aim to make it easier for you both! I have been told I look like the Noah’s Ark because all the animals come running to me. My friend thinks it’s because they can tell I have a good soul. I will continue any training that is already in motion and I am use to preparing meals and snacks all day long! I will do whatever it takes to make sure you and your loved one are Happy and Worry FREE! I’m currently only focusing on your pet care needs so I’m available anytime if my calendar says so even last minute plans I am available. My house is not set up yet for more animals like I wish was. I would have a zoo if I could! So, I would be coming to your lovely home to make it more comfortable for your babies. It does help them not stress out and cry as much!
About: Dogs have a special place in my heart. Growing up, we had a total of 6 dogs in our home! They were family to us. I have bottle fed some, helped some cross the rainbow bridge and saved my rescue, Peanut from the worst case of mange I have ever seen and today she’s the happiest, healthiest girl around! All dogs deserve a home, warm bed and to know what it’s like to be loved! I currently work in a remote position from home which has just been a blessing to be able to be home with my fur babies all day. I now have the time to love on you fur babies when you can’t be there to! I am experienced to work with almost any kind of animals you have! Rabbits? Had those! Chickens? Yep! You name it, I can just about bet you I have experience caring for them!

About: I've been pet sitting for 8+ years now, beginning when I was asked by a family friend to pet sit/house sit for a few weekends when I was 18. While I had been babysitting almost my entire life for both my immediate family and family friends (I am the oldest child of 3 sisters- so you could say I was born for this haha), pets were new to me. This didn’t stop me, however, and immediately, I was IN LOVE!! Her babies became my babies & I’ve never stopped loving each and every animal I have come into contact with since! I have cared for both big and small animals with no love lost in between. I grew up with 3 rabbits in the house who we let roam freely, a bearded dragon, a bird, a dog, and several outside cats! I also now have 2 (inside) cats of my own who I treat like my children. I understand the value and necessity of having a good sitter who you can trust and who is reliable. I am trustworthy, patient, responsible, and the best pet sitter for you! I hope to talk to you soon. :) I am currently available at all hours to take care of ALL of the fur babies! Seriously - I am honored to take care of them! The best thing about me is that I PAY ATTENTION! I am extremely attentive and I will care for your pet as if they are my own. To me, pets are not just animals, they are truly a member of the family so you can trust me to provide your loved one the care that they deserve. I am observant and thoughtful, so your fur baby is in good hands with me. Let me know if you have any questions or preferences because I am more than willing to help. :)
About: I grew up with a Rottweiler, Labrador, and Golden Retriever. I love big breeds but I currently have a Yorkie that unexpectedly stole my heart. Any pup is welcome here, we do not discriminate :) I have taken basic training classes, and can work with your pup while I have them, if interested. My job is very flexible and my schedule is catered to my own pets. Short shifts and when not working, we are usually doing dog friendly activities. We live right beside a dog park where I’m happy to bring your baby to get their exercise in. My dog is older and enjoys frequent naps but we take at least 4 walks a day.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always the one bringing home and caring for animals that needed extra love and attention. I even wanted to become a veterinarian — but my heart is just a little too soft when it comes to animals. Caring for pets isn’t just a side job for me — it genuinely makes me happy. I truly love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Your dog won’t just get a quick visit — they’ll get someone who genuinely enjoys being there. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and potty breaks every few hours. Your dog’s routine and comfort will always be a priority. I currently offer drop-in visits and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to stop by every few hours if needed. During each visit, I make sure your pet gets potty breaks, fresh water, feeding (if needed), and plenty of playtime and attention. I truly love spending time with dogs — whether that’s playing fetch, going for a short walk, or just giving belly rubs and keeping them company. I always follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m very clean and respectful of your home and treat every space as if it were my own. My goal is to make sure you come home to a happy pet and peace of mind.
About: Hi! I’m from the southern states and love beach walks and keeping active! I’d love to walk your pup! I have puppies of my own back home and could use some pup snuggles/walks! I have plenty of time to work around your schedule! I’d love to pick up some walks daily. I love closing my Apple Watch rings😁 so daily walks are a must for me. Even better with a doggy! I don’t prefer to do over nights or in my home since I don’t have the friendliest environment for a dog. However, I would love taking them on walks.
About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings. I do have a fenced yard for the zoomies and a neighborhood with a sidewalk for walks. I look forward to getting to know your family pets and working together :) I take bookings only when I know I will have plenty of time during your pets stay to be sure they’re being walked and supervised while running around the yard. I have a fenced in yard for letting your pets outside and a crate, if your pet is crate trained. I am happy to follow any special instructions that you may have for your pets.
About: Hello ! I just moved here from Virginia, and I want to tell you a bit about me. I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Always playing/taking on walks, feeding them, and giving cuddles. As a dog mom of two K understand how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your babies while you’re away. I regularly dog sat for a yellow lab and shih tzu in VA, and since moving here I adopted a second dog and i have been walking/doing drop in visits for other dogs near me, as seen in pictures ! I am a stay at home wife, so I’m available pretty much anytime. I do like getting my own pup at least an hour of play before leaving but that will be no issue I make sure I play with the pups very frequently, especially when I first get there and before I leave. I make sure to take them on 1-2 40 minute walks depending on how long i’m watching them for. One walk after they eat and one walk later on. I can brush them, feed them, play in the yard with them, etc.

“Taylor is amazing! She and her family welcomed my kitties, Lucius and Bella, into their home with welcome arms. It was a stressful week as we made settlement on our new home, but one thing I did not need to worry about was my cats as I knew they were well cared for by Taylor.”
“These are the best dog sitters you will find! They are always sending you tons of great pics and updates about your pup and you can tell they really love taking care of your furry family member. They provide a great home environment for pups. Will definitely use them again when I’m back in the area and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“We traveled from MN to vacation in Gulf Shores, AL. This was our first time using Rover. He has a wonderful yard/set up. We felt confident in leaving our Chocolate Lab with Corey for 5 nights.
