“Our dog, Dixie, was cared for very well during her stay. We received lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. Kayte was very accommodating for us when we kept experiencing hiccups on our travels! We're so glad we booked with her and we won't even have to think twice about who to go with next time!”
“As dog parents for the first time, we didn't know what to except leaving Curie for a week! Rachel took care of everything. She always kept us updated and sent an occasional pic when we missed her. Surprisingly Curie came back calmer, more obedient, with less biting habit. I'll surely recommend her service. Thanks Rachel.”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Kristen was an exceptional caregiver for my baby. She provided excellent care and maintained open communication throughout our absence. She went above and beyond to ensure his safety and well-being.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bleu!!! Ryan was great with Bleu, he sent photo updates, answered and replied to all my questions which gave me peace of mind. We had to change the dates bc we had an emergency and missed our flight. Ryan was so flexible and understanding. Ryan also has a lovely Mom and Dad, they’re a wonderful family and Bleu literally didn’t want to leave. I was shocked!! Im definitely booking Ryan again!!! Even if we arent going out of town I’ll be booking again just so she can visit her friend!!”
“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!”
“Chyna was absolutely amazing with our babies, Hampton and Willow! She cared for them overnight and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was attentive, loving, and made sure both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Hampton and Willow were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. We are so grateful for Chyna and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”
“Carli was a huge help taking our pup on a last minute request! She has great communication and was able to work with a couple changes in our travel plans to work out best for everyone. She stuck to our dogs schedule to keep him happy and comfortable and we didn’t have to worry about him at all for the duration of his stay.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”

“Jonathan and family provided a home away from home for our doggo. It was a long trip for us—6 days—and I was worried about our pup. But he thrived! It was such a great relief for me. I’m so grateful!”

“This was our first Rover experience and Leah was a wonderful representation of your service. From early communication, pre book visit and throughout or time away she was friendly and professional. You can tell she loves animals so much and she made us feel comfortable and less anxious being away. We hope next time we need to leave our kitties we get to work with her!”

“We love having Jaci and Holden watch our cat crew. They’re so great with them and keep us updated with notes and pictures. Even our new skittish cat has warmed up to them pretty quickly. It’s so nice to have these two nearby to take care of our pets while we’re away.”
“She was very sweet and communicative. I love the detail in which she wrote her notes. My dog is very precious to me and it means a lot to have someone taken care of her who truly cared about her.”

“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!”
“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 !”
“Kyler is an exceptional doggy-whisperer and caretaker, and she has been a tremendous resource for taking care of my pup with both sitting and boarding services. She is incredibly easy to work with, always thoroughly communicative, extremely accommodating and, without a doubt, well-knowledgeable and experienced in what she does. My pup is always happy and exhausted after time with Kyler, and I'm always at ease knowing that she will be well taken care of in Kyler's company. The praise in this review is absolutely well-deserved!”
“My babies came home fully intact! No parts missing lol! Jessica was a great host for my children. She sent updates throughout the day along with photographs. From the moment I dropped them off I was confident I had chosen the right person for the task. She is a pleasant human with a big heart. Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”
“I cannot say enough good about Savannah! She is an absolutely amazing caretaker. She treated my little girl like she was her own. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would.”
“Riley seemed to have a great time playing with friends and snuggling with the family which was welcoming and friendly. The yard was very large for energetic play. Thanks, Rachel.”
“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.”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my deep understanding and love for animals. I believe that pets are not just animals but they are members of the family. Therefore, I treat them with the same care and respect as their owners would. I stay home most of the day so the pet is not left alone for any extended amount of time and if I am not home then they will be in the area I keep my dogs. Firstly, I ensure that pets have access to clean water and food at all times. Secondly, they should be given regular exercise and playtime as per their breed and age requirements. Thirdly, it is crucial to maintain good hygiene by keeping their living space clean and grooming them regularly.
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.

About: Resident doctor by day, gentle pet‑spoiler always. I care for humans professionally and your pets lovingly - because everyone deserves snacks, comfort, and a calm heartbeat nearby. Working nearly full‑time until the end of June, with somewhat limited availability. My schedule opens up much more in the summer, offering plenty of pet‑care time. I understand how stressful it is when owners leave, so I focus on making your pet feel safe, comforted, and genuinely loved throughout your time away.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. I grew up with 10 dogs and 4 cats. I still dog sit for my parents all the time and they have 11 dogs. I also have 2 dogs of my own. I have tons of experience and there isn’t anyone who loves animals more! I work remotely, so I’m usually available and flexible most weekdays for drop-ins, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Since I’m home often, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow any direction my clients give! I’m experienced giving medicine to dogs and I am very attentive to any and all pets. I am very detail oriented and very reliable.
“Danielle is so great! She accepted my last minute request & walked my two pups in this cold, December weather. She so sweet to them & gave them some love afterwards & took multiple photos.😊 I can tell my dogs liked her a lot.🐾”
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. Big and small. I take my own dog for walks at least 3 times a week. I have house sat for dogs and cats before and throughly enjoyed it. I am very good at handling various situations and would be a perfect fit to watch your dog! I am currently a college student off for the summer so I have a lot of time on my hands and a very flexible schedule! I am very good with loving on dogs and giving them my full attention. I would know exactly what to do in any situation because I have grown up around dogs and learned exactly what to do.
About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)
About: I have loved animals ever since I knew what one first was! My family was active in animal rescue and it is something I kept dear to my heart all my life. I’ve actively worked with local rescues as a foster and transport for decades. I have babysat numerous pets for people over the years & I thoroughly enjoy it. I love getting to know each special little personality & instilling peace in the owners, knowing their beloved fur baby will be taken the very best care of. I have four animals & they are my absolute joys. I will treat your pet as part of my family in your absence & look forward to hearing more about your pets individual needs & personality! Whether it’s in your home, my home, daily walks, doggy playtime, & dog sitting, I can take care of it all & put your mind to ease this holiday season while traveling to & from loved ones homes. Please let me know how I can be the best pet sitter for your fur baby! I work at a local Elementary School and summer starts Monday, May 26th. I have chosen to rejoin Rover for the next couple of months throughout my summer break to bring in extra income. I will make your pet my top priority! I have 3 cats and 1 dog who are all inside pets. I do have a fenced in backyard that my dog enjoys on occasion. I am not a stickler when it comes to animals sitting on my furniture or in my bed @ night. I have crate trained many animals, as well. I have many years of experience helping numerous animals, together or separately. If your pet would be staying with me my cats will not be an issue. My dog is extremely friendly but also, does not have to be there during your pets stay, should it be an issue. I offer in home boarding @ my home. I offer walking your dog, doggy daycare, spending time with your cat(s), and any other accommodations that maybe needed.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them is truly a passion of mine. My priority is always making sure every dog is happy, well-exercised, and well cared for—with full bellies, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I previously worked at a dog kennel for a year, where I gained hands-on experience caring for many different dogs and personalities. I loved building relationships with them, and they always responded well to my calm, caring approach. I also regularly spend time at the dog park with my own dogs, which has helped me become comfortable interacting with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. When your dog is with me, they’ll be treated like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your dog has a safe, fun, and positive experience every time. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs every day by feeding them, making sure they always have fresh water, taking them for walks, and spending time playing and exercising with them. I also regularly take them to the dog park so they can socialize and stay active. Because caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, adding pet sitting or dog walking fits in easily with my schedule. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets, my goal is to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I make sure they have fresh water, are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also provide a clean, safe environment where they can relax and feel at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the owner’s instructions and follow their pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, medication if needed, and playtime. I spend quality time with the pets so they feel comfortable while their owner is away, and I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of care and attention. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible for both the pet and the owner.
About: I have had many years of pet sitting my four legged family members, minus the pay; however, I enjoyed it every moment of those amazing opportunities! All my other jobs are very flexible, in other words I am self-employed. Therefore, I am looking for all long term families to work with! We will all have plenty of outdoor space to get great exercise, plus cool indoor space to cool off on those hot, fun days! Also, I would love to take them to any dog parks.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and my ability to tailor care to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with puppies, including basic training reinforcement (potty routines, leash manners, crate comfort, and positive reinforcement), as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, gentle handling, medication reminders, and close monitoring. I’m attentive to routines, quick to notice changes in behavior or health, and I prioritize clear communication with owners, regular updates, photos, and notes so you always feel at ease. Whether it’s high-energy play, slow senior strolls, or maintaining training consistency, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m an online college student at Jefferson State, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my classes and coursework around pet care responsibilities. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to provide consistent attention, timely potty breaks, feeding on schedule, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship. This flexibility is especially helpful for puppies who need frequent check ins and senior pets who benefit from routine and supervision. I structure my study time around the pets in my care rather than the other way around, so their needs always come first. This setup allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for the pets I’m caring for throughout the week. I provide attentive, individualized care with pets that are in my client’s home, and I always follow the routine and preferences you set. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick closely to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure litter boxes, yards, and feeding areas stay clean, administer medications if needed, and give plenty of affection and enrichment. I also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health and provide regular updates with photos and notes.
About: Hi! I’m Emily, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family where our dogs were truly family members, and my first job at 11 years old was walking my neighbors’ dogs. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—including puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need medication or extra attention. As a Rover customer myself, I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. That’s why I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’m home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. My own dog, Ollie, loves making new friends, and we stick to a structured routine with multiple walks, enrichment activities, and lots of cuddle time. I maintain a clean, safe environment and can follow your dog’s regular schedule, dietary needs, medications, and any special instructions. I always make sure to have a clean environment so the dogs can’t get into anything that would be harmful to them. They will get at least 4 walks a day and one trip to the fenced in dog park behind my complex if weather permits.

“Our dog, Dixie, was cared for very well during her stay. We received lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. Kayte was very accommodating for us when we kept experiencing hiccups on our travels! We're so glad we booked with her and we won't even have to think twice about who to go with next time!”
“As dog parents for the first time, we didn't know what to except leaving Curie for a week! Rachel took care of everything. She always kept us updated and sent an occasional pic when we missed her. Surprisingly Curie came back calmer, more obedient, with less biting habit. I'll surely recommend her service. Thanks Rachel.”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Chyna was absolutely amazing with our babies, Hampton and Willow! She cared for them overnight and gave us such peace of mind while we were away.

Hampton and Willow were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. We are so grateful for Chyna and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”
“Carli was a huge help taking our pup on a last minute request! She has great communication and was able to work with a couple changes in our travel plans to work out best for everyone.

“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time.

If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”

“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!”
“Opol was a godsend . Poppie seemed really happy and comfortable. I would.most definitely use her again! Her communication was awesome and he ate all his food. Thank you again!”
