“Kayte and crew did a fantastic job of having our big puppy Cosmo for 3 nights! Her and her husband are super friendly and sent us daily updates and pics of our boy’s first time sleep over! We will happily hire her services again!”
“Katie and her family were absolutely amazing! They are were so kind and gave my pup all the extra attention he loves. Will absolutely be coming to her for future bookings 😊”
“This was my first time using Rover. I have 3 cats and I couldn’t stand the thought of leaving them in cages at the vet for a week while I was out of town. I contacted Talhia through Rover. I was extremely pleased and surprised from the level of care Talhia provided. The cats stay in a bedroom, set up strictly for them with cat posts, cozy beds, and toys. She interacted with each kitty and sent daily pictures and texts. This turned out to be an stress-free trip. Talhia and her husband were the perfect sitters and I won’t hesitate to use Rover whenever I go out of town! Brenda Anderson”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“Brittney was awesome! She sent lots of photos and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout her stay! Remi came home tired and happy! Brittney even got her to eat most of her food which Remi can be weird about in new places! Would definitely recommend her to a friend and will definitely be using again!”
“Kristen was absolutely great with Brahm. She kept me updated on how he was doing and what he was doing. She sent lots of pictures and videos. This made me feel very comfortable that Brahm was being well cared for. Thank you Kristen.”
“Doug did an amazing job with our puppy. He was very gentle and kind with her. It was our first time using Rover and first time leaving her for the weekend and I can honestly say I didn’t worry a bit. Highly recommend Doug and hope to use his services again.”
“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”
“Whitney treated Penny with care and kindness, and sent pictures throughout the day. Penny and her dogs got along and played well together. Whitney made Penny feel comfortable and we will be utilizing her services in the future when we go out of town.”
“So happy to have booked a stay with Kimberley! We had a seamless experience! Great communication throughout the booking, and Kimberley and her family provided wonderful care for my pup! I will definitely rebook!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
“Ryan really loves animals and takes his dog care services seriously. He is great at communicating with his clients and provides plenty of pictures and daily updates. 10 out of 10, would recommend.”
“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”
“Jonathan and his family were great! We will definitely be requesting them as a new regular. Very friendly, helped us out and allowed us to extend our boarding for an additional night at last minute, sent updates and pictures, and made sure our dog had plenty of exercise!”
“David was great, he was very caring for my high energy Golden Retriever and kind the whole experience. He also took care of my older miniature Dachshund, and they were returned to us so happy and well exercised. He accommodated us even though my request was very last minute, and sent pictures and videos daily. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pups like their own family then look no further than David. I am not easily impressed whatsoever, but I cannot speak highly enough of him and will be returning in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Danielle was great in providing pictures of our pet and taking care of him while we were out of town. Would definitely ask her to watch our pet again in the future!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”

“Tahlia was fantastic, very responsive answering messages and provided lots of pictures and videos of my sweet Bleuy! This was my first time using a sitter and Tahlia has set the bar very high! Bleuy had a great time playing with the other doggies during day care and we will definitely be using Tahlia again when we come to town for a long day. Thank you so much for loving on our sweet baby and making her feel like she was at home!”

“I was so nervous to trust someone with my new puppy. However, Kayte was so kind, understanding and patient with me. Our puppy really blossomed in her care and enjoyed spending time with her family. She was excited to go back each day and was exhausted from all the playing when she came home. Great experience!”
“Kyler is fantastic. She's extremely communicative, very easy to work with and, judging by how excited my little one gets as soon as she sees her, is a wonderful caretaker and doggy-pal. 😊 My experiences with Kyler have been great and I'm very thankful to have a sitter like her available and so close to home. You won't be disappointed if you ever decide on her and her services (but don't take our spot 😊)!”
“Savannah was able to do Doggie Care with our two girls with short notice. They were happy & well cared for. Sweet pictures even though it was just for a few hours. I would recommend Savannah to care for your dogs anytime.”
“Opal was so wonderful! You can really tell she loves animals. I felt very comfortable that my babies were safe and in good hands. They had a blast running around outside and playing with the other dog. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day. I look forward to booking with Opal again!”
“We were planning to leave our pups in a large kennel outside because we were only taking a day trip. Last minute, I feel that it is going to be too cold for me to be comfortable leaving them outside. David agreed to take them last minute, easing my concerns. We felt our pups were well cared for during their time with David. He kept us updated on them settling in. He sent us a video of our pups outside, behaving as they would if they were home. All of David's interactions with us during their stay allowed us to enjoy time with our family without concern. We are also sitters so, the fact that I would highly recommend David should speak volumes.”
“I reached out to Mrs. Kim on very short notice after my dog sitter bailed on me days prior to a week long vacation I had scheduled. Mrs.Kim was very accommodating with my request. She does frequent updates and made my baby a part of her pact, and now my dog loves it there! 100% recommend Mrs. Kim and her family and will be using her again and again !”
“I can’t say enough great things about Rachel! They took amazing care of our Miniature Dachshund, Ollie, while we were in town for the Supercross race. It was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Ollie was happy, well-cared for, and I received regular updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is priceless, and I’m so grateful to have found Rachel. Wished we lived closer so I could continue to use her services. She has the sweetest little family too. We Highly recommend!!!”

Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”

Definitely reach out to her about your fur baby.”

About: I’ve worked in a cat, dog, and exotic kennel for 3 years at a veterinary clinic. I have over 500 hours in small animal husbandry and I also shadow and work with a veterinarian during the summer. This experience has made me extremely versed in reading animal body language as well as being detailed oriented when it comes to pristine care for pets no matter if they are puppies, kittens or seniors citizens. In addition, I am a pre-vet major at Mississippi State University and plan to pursue veterinary medicine in the future. Taking care of furry friends is my passion and I’d love to provide service to you! I’m currently on break from college and work at a veterinary clinic during the weekends as veterinary assistant and kennel technician. I choose to provide pet-sitting and walking services during the week to serve my community while still balancing schoolwork and veterinary hours. Your pet fits perfectly into my planned schedule so that I can provide intentional, safe care for them! At a client’s home I like to go through a detailed talk to discuss feeding times, play date times, as well as triggers for each pet in order to keep all of us safe and happy.
About: Hi, I’m Aly! My house was never empty growing up—I was raised in a home full of cats, which taught me how to respect and care for even the pickiest feline personalities. At the same time, I’ve always been the go-to dog walker for my friends and family, and I've recently taken that passion professional. Currently, I’m active on Wag!, where I’ve completed multiple successful walks and have already secured a repeat client who trusts me with their dog’s daily exercise. I’m excited to expand to Rover to offer that same high level of care to both dog and cat owners in the Tuscaloosa area! As a flexible independent worker, my schedule is my own, which means I can easily prioritize your pet’s routine! Whether it’s a mid-day check-in or a last-minute visit, I have the freedom to be there when you can’t. When I’m not hanging out with your pets, you’ll usually find me curled up with a book or learning a new skill. Since I value a calm and relaxed environment, I’m the perfect match for your pet who enjoy a peaceful presence or a quiet companion to sit with them while they nap. I focus on providing personalized care that matches your pet’s unique energy level. Whether I’m visiting for a drop-in or staying overnight, my priority is maintaining the routine that makes them feel safe and happy.
About: Not only have I been dog sitting for the last 15 years, but I also have a lot of other experience with pet care! I have worked in a pet store as well as in veterinary offices when I used to live back in Indiana so I have learned a lot about caring for animals. I attended veterinary nursing school too before I moved, but I didn’t get to finish before moving down here and am currently looking to re start schooling here in Alabama. While I there I gained even more knowledge on animal health and care. I was the kennel manager for the shelter pets that we had at the school, where I was in charge of administering oral and IV/IM pet medication. I have experience working with elderly pets with medical issues as my own fur baby who passed in 2025 suffered from CHF and she required a lot of extra care towards the end. I love all types of animals and have experience caring for not only just dogs and cats. Over the years I have owned reptiles, turtles, and currently own 2 rabbits as well as 2 cats and 1 dog! If you book with me I will treat your pet as though they were my own so you can rest easy knowing they are loved and taken care of! I only work part time, so I have a very flexible schedule. I will have plenty of time to spend time with your pet! I am not typically away from home for very long, so I will be able to regularly come to check on your pet. I have a large fenced in yard and a dog door that my two dogs go in and out of freely. I will walk or run with your dog daily. There is usually always someone in my house at home at all times, who all love to interact with dogs. I have one other dogs. She is typically nice with other dogs but can be very skittish, so they would need to be introduced prior to being watched. The safety and comfort of all of the dogs including my own are my priority, so it needs to be a good fit. My dog does love to play a lot so they usually enjoy having another furry friend to play with. My 2 cats and 2 rabbits also live in the home, but the layout of the house allows them to stay in the upstairs portion of the house and it is blocked off to allow them to be separated. They all get along, but I feel more comfortable to allow them to have their own spaces.
“Was super helpful and responsive while taking care of our two dogs!! Was able to adjust her schedule when i was called into work early. Our doggos loved Ms Jessie ♥️”
About: I have worked with various breeds from a Newfoundland to a Pomeranian. My family owns two dogs that have had two litters of puppies so I have experience with dogs from new born to seniors. I also have a two furbabies of my own. I’m highly motivated and energetic, I don’t mind taking high energy dogs for long walks/ runs or just snuggling up and comforting dogs with separation anxiety. I don’t mind taking your dog on field trips, weather it’s to the lake or the dog park or just playing inside on rainy days! I love all breeds of dogs even ones considered “bully breeds” those are the sweetest in my opinion. For dog boarding if you have your dogs trained a certain way (staying off furniture) I can certainly enforce that while they are at my house. I can also work with any other needs like that if it is needed. Such as if your dogs do not get along with other dogs I can always put mine up in their room. The dogs will always meet in a neutral area before brought in the house to make sure they get along! I am currently attending school online so my schedule is open and very flexible! Whether your dog just needs a walk midday, someone to feed them while you’re at work, or someone to come stay with them/ to come stay with me and my pup because they aren’t good alone at home! I am currently in an house it does not have a fenced in backyard but i do have a big backyard and tie outs. I also have 2 furbabies to keep your pup comapany! If your dog is reactive i will make sure to keep a close eye on our surroundings while on walks!

I have worked for pet stores and handled tons of different pets with personalities all different than the last. I have a puppy of my own whom I currently training, sit, potty training, lay, and wait. She’s currently understanding sit and stay. Great progress! Dealing with animals is healing and I try to fill my weekly schedule with caring for pets. Including after hours for my current job and to also help individuals who need assistance. I always take my time to deal with animals in their own environment. It is their home and I will always respect the pet, and let parent, since it is their area of living. Cleanliness, and respect, is always #1!
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!
About: I have had pets most of my life. My dogs have been small breeds but I love them all. My dog recently passed away (age) and I thought how great it would be to love on others pets. I have a part time job with a flexible schedule so would be able to care for your pet most days. I would love to be of service. I am able to take your pet on walks, play with them to burn energy & whatever your needs are. These will be done at your house/neighborhood.
About: I love fur babies! I have had pets all of my life and from cats and dogs to even dwarf frogs. Big, tall, short, and small- I will love them all! I understand the stress of leaving town and worrying about your fur babies! I am more than happy to send cute photos for you to archive while you are away to let you know your baby is happy, healthy, and safe! I have an extremely open schedule. I would love to make pet sitting my full time job! Regular clients are welcome! Give me all of the dates you think you might need me and I will clear my calendar! I often take my pup out with me! I feel brain stimulation of any kind keeps them happy and healthy! Walks are important! Enrichment time along with gentle training: treats to sit or lay down.
About: I know how stressful it can be to choose someone to care for your pets, and I’ve totally been there. I have two small dogs myself, and I hate leaving them behind. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from cats, and dogs, to even an abandoned deer for two days. I’d love to be your best friend’s new best friend! Currently, I’m a stay at home dog mom. I take my boys to the Red Mountain or Vestavia Hills Dog Park almost everyday, and they couldn’t be happier! Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, they’ll be cared for just like my own. In my home, they’ll enjoy our fully fenced, backyard, walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. In your home, I’ll stick to their routine so they feel happy, safe, and loved
About: I am an extremely caring and loving individual, who has owned two dogs, two cats, and dozens of other pets. Therefore I know how to accommodate whatever needs your pet might have. Having lost my oldest dog recently, being around other animals is fun and therapeutic for me as well. I am looking for work to supplement playing gigs on the weekend. Since I spend much time writing music at home, I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I have an easy going schedule being a teacher and musician. I have plenty of time to meet with your pet to attend to whatever needs they might have. I have plenty of space for pets to roam around my house. I also have a fenced in back yard where I like to spend time with my dog or friends dogs when the warmer weather is here.
About: Hi, I’m Laniee — a passionate, dependable pet care provider with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and turning that passion into a lifelong career is something I’m actively working toward every day. I’m currently taking classes to continue advancing my knowledge in animal behavior, pet care, and training so I can provide the highest quality care possible for every pet I meet. I’m also in the beginning stages of building my own pet service business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee, which will eventually offer a wide range of mobile pet services including grooming, pet photography sessions, pet taxi services, training sessions, and more. What sets me apart is the amount of genuine love, patience, attention, and care I give to every animal as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to build trust with them at their pace. Even anxious or shy pets tend to warm up to me quickly. I live an active lifestyle, so I love spending time walking, playing, exploring, and keeping high-energy pets engaged and happy. I also enjoy slower-paced companionship for senior pets or animals who simply prefer cuddles and comfort. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, patience, transportation assistance, or extra attention, I’m here to help make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because caring for animals is genuinely what I love doing. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I’m currently continuing my education in the pet care field while also working toward building my future business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee. Gaining hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, behaviors, and routines is extremely important to me because I want to continue growing long-term in this career. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet individually — their quirks, habits, energy levels, favorite activities, and comfort routines. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, overnight care, playtime, medication routines, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pet receives attentive and reliable care. Creating a safe, loving, low-stress environment for pets is always my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, protection, and affection I give my own pets. I’m a proud dog mom to my sweet girl, Coco Chanel, who has taught me so much about companionship, routine, emotional connection, and attentive care. Because of my experience with animals of different personalities and temperaments, I pay close attention to body language, comfort levels, triggers, and routines to help pets feel secure and relaxed. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency, cleanliness, supervision, exercise, enrichment, hydration, feeding schedules, and emotional comfort. I also have reliable transportation available for park visits, walks, vet appointments, grooming appointments, or unexpected situations if needed. I believe pets thrive when they feel understood, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. My goal is always to provide a calm, trustworthy, and positive experience for both pets and their owners. Feel free to message me with any questions. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members!

“Katie and her family were absolutely amazing! They are were so kind and gave my pup all the extra attention he loves. Will absolutely be coming to her for future bookings 😊”
“This was my first time using Rover. I have 3 cats and I couldn’t stand the thought of leaving them in cages at the vet for a week while I was out of town. I contacted Talhia through Rover. I was extremely pleased and surprised from the level of care Talhia provided. The cats stay in a bedroom, set up strictly for them with cat posts, cozy beds, and toys. She interacted with each kitty and sent daily pictures and texts. This turned out to be an stress-free trip. Talhia and her husband were the perfect sitters and I won’t hesitate to use Rover whenever I go out of town! Brenda Anderson”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“Brittney was awesome! She sent lots of photos and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout her stay! Remi came home tired and happy! Brittney even got her to eat most of her food which Remi can be weird about in new places! Would definitely recommend her to a friend and will definitely be using again!”
“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”
“Jonathan and his family were great! We will definitely be requesting them as a new regular. Very friendly, helped us out and allowed us to extend our boarding for an additional night at last minute, sent updates and pictures, and made sure our dog had plenty of exercise!”
“David was great, he was very caring for my high energy Golden Retriever and kind the whole experience. He also took care of my older miniature Dachshund, and they were returned to us so happy and well exercised. He accommodated us even though my request was very last minute, and sent pictures and videos daily. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pups like their own family then look no further than David. I am not easily impressed whatsoever, but I cannot speak highly enough of him and will be returning in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Danielle was great in providing pictures of our pet and taking care of him while we were out of town. Would definitely ask her to watch our pet again in the future!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“My two pups looked like they had a great time with Kyler and the other dogs! I received regular pictures and updates so that I felt comfortable knowing that they were well taken care of. When I picked them up, and Kyler and I were talking a little too long, both dogs suggested that they would be fine to get out of the truck to go back to play. I absolutely would recommend Kyler and have no reservations on her taking care of my dogs again.”
“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”
“Cody was awesome! Received daily updates with pictures and videos. Exactly what this mom needed! Charlie seemed very happy and enjoyed the other dogs. Will be using Cody again!”
“Tatiana took very good care of Benny! She sent daily pictures and messages. She was also very flexible when my flight was delayed. I would definitely recommend her for your pet!”
