“Katie is an amazing pet sitter. She was so attentive, kind and interactive with my dog. My dog had great walks and fun playing with her dog. I will use her services in the future.”
“I had a really great experience. I would definitely book again. This was my first time using Rover and also my dog’s first time being with someone outside a family and I believe booking with them allowed him to also grow and develop. This was a great experience”
“I was so happy that I chose Annie for my lab’s stay. Her kids enjoyed fetching and I got video updates throughout the weekend. They also live in a nice neighborhood with a big backyard. If anyone is in need of pet sitting this is a great place and your dog will get excellent care!”
“Samantha was amazing and so easy to work with! She responded so quickly to my messages and was always kind! Our Ellie (golden retriever) had the best time playing with Samantha’s golden Blair. We definitely recommend Samantha and look forward to booking with her in the future.”
“Leif and Dani were the best. They took very good care of our pup and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. Very communicative. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a rover in the area!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I had a cat who was part of my family for 16 years, which taught me a lot about caring for an older pet with patience, love, and attention to their individual needs. I currently continue to care for dogs and cats, including my friends’ pets and my sister’s cat. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and following each pet’s specific routine and instructions. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. I’m responsible, attentive, and respectful of both pets and their homes. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or older, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets. I can fit pet care, walks, playtime, and check-ins into my daily routine while making sure each pet receives consistent and personalized care. My apartment is quite spacious, with three floors, giving pets plenty of room to feel comfortable and move around. My complex also has a designated dog park, which is great for walks, playtime, and exercise. I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment and always follow each pet’s routine and specific needs.
“Kimmey is absolutely amazing! I was nervous with this being my first time away from my dog, but Kimmey made it easy to enjoy my time away with family knowing that my dog was receiving the best care. She frequently sent updates on how my dog was doing and took care to pay attention to my dog's individual enrichment interests and needs. My dog had a blast and she misses Kimmey and her wonderful family already! I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Korol was an amazing sitter for our senior dog. She walked and played with our dog every day and it was clear that she gave our girl lots of love. It was the first time our dog seemed to really enjoy staying with a sitter. 5 stars!”
“Carter accommodated our last minute request and had the perfect set up for our dog. They were responsive and seemed to treat our dog as their own. We look forward to having him and his wife help us in the future!”
“Rebecca was awesome!! First time using rover and was fortunate to find the best sitter in our area. Rebecca has great communication and I can tell Bruno had a great time and was well cared for.”
“Brian and Sue are still wonderful and Maggie loves them! She took to them immediately! We were so comfortable and confident that Maggie would be well loved and cared for, and she was! We’ve already booked Brian for another 4-day stay.”
“I had a great experience with Dominik boarding my two dogs. What stood out the most was that he was willing to take them in at the last minute, which helped me out tremendously and truly meant a lot. From the beginning, Dominik was professional, responsive, and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. You can tell he genuinely cares about animals and wants to make sure they feel comfortable. My dogs were well taken care of, and I appreciated knowing they were in good hands while I was away. Finding someone dependable to trust with your pets is not always easy, but I would absolutely recommend Dominik to anyone looking for reliable and caring boarding services.”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Allie was so great with our puppy! Her three dogs helped ours feel right at home while we were away! She was super friendly and sent us lots of picture updates every day! Will definitely leave our dog in her care again!”
“We feel like Laura and Spirit have become pals. Laura treats her like her furry roommate. We plan to leave Spirit with her anytime that it works out. She has a true love for and knowledge of dogs, that is very obvious in talking to her. We would highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
“Our dog LOVED her time with Sandra and Mark. She normally takes a little time to warm up to new people and things, but she was instantly at home with them. She loved running around their yard and sitting in a little pool and sun tent that they offered her. They had excellent communication and sent us so many pictures. It’s so reassuring knowing your pup is in good hands when you’re away from them. We’d recommend them to anyone and would love to use them again in the future!”
About: I have had my beagle for almost 6 years and one of my favorite things to do is take her to cute parks I find. If you know anything about beagles, you know they are very curious dogs who arent that great at walks - so I am experienced in taking care of slightly difficult dogs and love them regardless!! I am currently a biomedical sciences student at Auburn university. With my current schedule, I am in class until 1:00 on Mon/Wed and from 12:30-4:00 Tues/Thurs. Fridays I am unavailable until 5:00pm. I have a fenced in yard and an open courtyard nearby. My family dog has a lot of energy, so I am used to playing lots of games to get some of that energy out!
About: I’ve been a “dog person” (personally & now professionally) all my life, and have experience with big and small pups of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. I work at the vet school and have lots of home/yard space, time, and a social dog of my own that would happily welcome your fur baby! On weekdays, I either wfh or go into the office just 5mins away, so I’m always able to come home midday for potty breaks. I’m an active dog mom & love to walk around the neighborhood or nearby trails, but also have a large private fenced yard and a million toys if your dog prefers to get exercise that way. I also love & welcome the couch potatoes - all furniture is open for lounging and cuddles. I have been fostering & training dogs for the last 15 years and have basic medical training - so if your pup has any special considerations just reach out to discuss! My life pretty much revolves around my own dog, with a regular feeding/potty/play/lounging schedule, so guests would fit right into that routine. My schedule is very flexible & pups are never left alone for more than a few hours at a time. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to zoom and sniff around. I have a ~2yr old mixed breed dog (Mac) who is extremely social and loves making people/dog friends. He is playful, but often goes to dog parks and seems to adapt to whatever energy level the other dogs are, so he’s adaptable & loves chill time just the same.
About: I am a freshman majoring in Pre-Vet so I am very familiar with animals especially dogs. I grew up with dogs, have a dog of my own at home, sitting, walking, training, puppies, etc. I am currently a freshman student at Auburn but my school schedule is very flexible and I have many gaps throughout my days. My busiest day this semester is Wednesday. I always treat the house like it’s my own. I am a very clean, responsible, trustworthy person who cares about how my home feels, looks, and making sure it is comfortable for everyone. I prefer pets staying in my house.

“Abby has cared for my kitties multiple times. She always sends me report cards with pictures so I know they are doing well, and I come home to a nice clean house with happy kitties!”
About: I have many years of experience taking care of a variety of different dog and cat breeds as I grew up traveling all over the world. I have a lot of online classes so only my mornings are decently busy. I don’t currently have another job right now so my afternoons are very open. I am very good at keeping a schedule and making sure they are fed on time, have plenty of fresh water and exercise, and feel comfortable and safe. I make an effort to follow the pets usual routine. I also am very happy to provide regular updates and pictures.
“Thanks so much to Alexandra for doing such a great job with Punk'n during his drop in. He was very relaxed and happy and when u got home and I know he had fun during the visit. I love the pictures and the feedback you have on his visit.”
“This is the second time I’ve used Kailyn to watch Coco. This time she was also house sitting instead of just doing drop ins. She did such a great job! She left literally zero remnants of being here! It was so sweet for her to clean up. Would highly recommend.”
“Lindsey was great! she was able to accommodate extra cats last minute due to a TNR situation and was very sweet to all of my pets! I definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!!”
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every cat like they're my own. As a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) student and someone who has worked in a veterinary clinic, I have experience recognizing signs of illness, handling cats safely, administering basic care, and understanding feline behavior. My veterinary background allows me to provide an extra level of care and attention, whether your cat is young, senior, shy, or has special medical needs. I know that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or simply needs their daily care and medications, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, litter box routines, and any special instructions to help keep their stress to a minimum. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your cat is getting all the attention they love and deserve!
“Jonah was a fantastic sitter as always! She's incredibly kind, helpful, and so great at communicating about my cats, delivered mail, and any concerns she has during her visits. My girls and outdoor son love Jonah to bits and I am so grateful anytime she accepts my on the fly requests! 10/10 always gonna hire again.”
About: I have one cat that I got a few months ago. I have been around family and friends cats for years but have never formally had one of my own. I love the unique qualities of each cat and understanding how each one differs from the last.
About: I’ve always been taking care of cats for over 8 years now. I have experience working with cats with my job at the animal hospital. I also cat sit family and friends cats whenever needed.
About: Though I don't have a cat at the moment, -they would not get along very well with my dogs- I used to have a cat named Ellie and she was amazing. Since then, I have pet sit for cats many times before outside of Rover, so I have plenty of experience with them. I will make it my no.1 priority to make sure yours doesn't get lonely!
About: Hi! I’m a total cat lover with 5 years of pet care experience, and I absolutely adore getting to know each kitty’s unique personality. Whether your cat is playful and curious or shy and independent, I’m patient, gentle, and happy to move at their pace. I love interactive playtime, cozy cuddle sessions (when they allow it!), and making sure litter boxes, feeding routines, and daily care are perfectly handled. My goal is to keep your cat feeling safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away — and I’ll always send plenty of sweet updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing! 🐾✨
About: I first fell in love with cats when I rescued a neighborhood stray when I was 14 and knew when I become an adult I’d rescue another one immediately. I’ve been taking care of cats for over 10 years and have experience with different temperaments and ages.
About: I love talking with animals and making them feel loved. I want you to know your pets safety is my priority second would be my safety. I love to spread love to pets.

About: I’ve spent years caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds through hands-on cat rescue and fostering. My experience includes working with Rescue Kitties of Hawaii and Kat Charities from 2020–2024, where I helped care for cats and kittens with a wide range of temperaments and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from playful, social kittens to shy or nervous cats who need patience and time to feel comfortable. I understand that cats have very different personalities, and I’m happy to follow their lead—whether they want lots of attention and playtime or would rather have their space while I quietly take care of their needs. During visits, I can provide feeding and fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, brushing, cuddles and companionship. I also pay attention to changes in eating, drinking, litter box habits and behavior so you know how your cat is doing while you’re away. As a longtime cat owner, foster and rescue volunteer, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust in your home with your pets. I’ll treat your cats with the same patience and care I’d want for my own—and I’m happy to send photos and updates at every visit so you can relax while you’re away. 🐾

“What a great experience! Annie & her family treated my Boykin Spaniel like family! They were flexible as our plans changed due to college drop off & went above & beyond to help with some challenges on timing & logistics. Our dog was well cared for by a very loving family!”
About: I know every pet is different! I trained my own dog from puppyhood and treat every dog I care for with the same patience, love, and attention!

About: Our entire family loves to care for animals! I personally have been a responsible pet sitter for over 25 years. While we currently are a pet free home, we have been thankful to have owned and cared for a black lab, yorkie poo (lived until 15), two German Shepards (currently guard dogs in Haiti), rabbits and many goats. While your pet is with me you will receive multiple updates and feel secure in the fact that they are being loved and taken care of just as you would! I would love the privilege to care for your beloved dog while you are away! I am a stay at home homeschool mom and have the ability to care for your animal all day. It is so fun to incorporate dog walks and playtime with your animals in my daily schedule. I can easily crate your fur baby, or they can sleep in a comfy dog bed. We have a large yard, with a small portion fenced. Since we are a homeschool family, we spend a lot of time out doors and I love to take dogs for walks and let them join us outside if that is what your fur baby enjoys. If you need help with drop in services at your own home, I can arrange those services to meet your dogs needs.
“Top notch! Our 1 year old Boxer loved his stay with Allison and Regan and their pups. The next day he was missing all his friends and, from the pictures, it’s evident that he received plenty of cuddles and playtime. Allison was extremely helpful and understanding when our return was delayed. I felt safe with Sam under her care.”
“Allie has been amazing and so accommodating when I need a last minute sitter! My dog loves her daycare time with Allie’s dogs and I always receive updates/pictures. Highly recommend!”

For pet owners, knowing that I can offer reliable care provides peace of mind—whether it’s a quick check-in, a thoughtful response to any concerns, or simply understanding how to make their pets feel at ease. My love for animals is grounded in the belief that pets deserve kindness, respect, and consistent care. I focus on building a trusting bond with each pet so they feel comfortable and safe in my presence.

My home is pet-proofed to ensure there are no hazards, such as toxic plants, sharp objects, or unsafe areas that your pet could access. All windows and doors are securely closed or locked to prevent any escapes, and I always monitor pets closely when they’re outside to ensure they’re safely contained. Your pet will have a designated, cozy sleeping area that is safe and comfortable, whether it’s their bed, crate, or a spot they’re familiar with. I will ensure that this area is free from distractions and potential dangers, allowing them to rest peacefully and securely. I’ll keep your pet’s daily routine consistent, including feeding times, exercise, and rest. If they’re on medication or need specific care, I will ensure they receive the correct dosage at the right times. Sticking to their usual routine helps minimize stress and makes them feel more at home in my care.

“Abby was amazing at taking such great care of Doogie & Otto on their twice-a-day walks while I had to travel for work. Having one 2 year old and one 12 year old makes the walks a challenge, and she managed to strike the right balance to make them both happy! Additionally, the little extras she did like checking that the litter box was clean, was so helpful! We definitely would recommend Abby to care for your pets, and we definitely plan to use her services over and over!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old, when my family welcomed our first dog. Growing up with dogs gave me years of hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after them, and making sure they were happy, healthy, and well cared for. When we later brought home a puppy, I took on much of the responsibility for raising and caring for it. The puppy stayed with me in my room, so I was responsible for feeding, supervising, helping with potty training, keeping a consistent routine, and making sure it felt safe and comfortable as it grew. I also enjoyed teaching both of our dogs basic commands and fun tricks using patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Through these experiences, I learned that every dog has a unique personality, and I always take the time to understand what helps them feel comfortable and secure. I’m a dependable, patient, and attentive caregiver who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love, respect, and care that I give my own. At the moment, I’m available anytime during the morning and early afternoon for drop-in visits, walks, or playtime. I’d love to spend quality time with your pup while making sure they receive the care, attention, and exercise they need! Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I’ll take the time to follow your care instructions closely and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life — all 24 years of it. From the moment I was old enough to pick up a food bowl, I was right there helping to care for them. That means over two decades of feeding, walking, playing, and loving dogs of all shapes and sizes. For me, caring for dogs isn’t just a job — it’s second nature. During the day I work, but I have the flexibility to step away and check in on any pets in my care. Evenings are generally when I’m most available, so your pet will have plenty of attention and company after hours. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own family dog. Your pet won’t just be looked after — they’ll be loved, spoiled, and made to feel right at home.
About: I have taken care of dogs since for around 8 years. I started before I could drive and I would walk over to my neighbors house and feed/ play with their dogs while they were out of town. I have still continued to dog sit every once in a while when I am needed. I am a college student at Auburn University. I am also from Opelika so everyone that I have been dog sitting for in high school, I am still able to help out today. My schedule for next semester is very open and not too busy. I am also available over summer as well. I do have a goldendoodle at my parents house. She is 5 years old and loves playing with other dogs. I also have a car so I will be able to come to my clients house to take care their furry friends for as long as I am needed. Currently I live in a townhouse and would love to take care of your pets here!

Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home.

It’s so reassuring knowing your pup is in good hands when you’re away from them. We’d recommend them to anyone and would love to use them again in the future!”
About: I’ve been a “dog person” (personally & now professionally) all my life, and have experience with big and small pups of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. I work at the vet school and have lots of home/yard space, time, and a social dog of my own that would happily welcome your fur baby! On weekdays, I either wfh or go into the office just 5mins away, so I’m always able to come home midday for potty breaks. I’m an active dog mom & love to walk around the neighborhood or nearby trails, but also have a large private fenced yard and a million toys if your dog prefers to get exercise that way. I also love & welcome the couch potatoes - all furniture is open for lounging and cuddles. I have been fostering & training dogs for the last 15 years and have basic medical training - so if your pup has any special considerations just reach out to discuss! My life pretty much revolves around my own dog, with a regular feeding/potty/play/lounging schedule, so guests would fit right into that routine. My schedule is very flexible & pups are never left alone for more than a few hours at a time. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to zoom and sniff around. I have a ~2yr old mixed breed dog (Mac) who is extremely social and loves making people/dog friends. He is playful, but often goes to dog parks and seems to adapt to whatever energy level the other dogs are, so he’s adaptable & loves chill time just the same.
About: I’ve had a variety of animals growing up. There was never a time in my household where i did not have a pet. I am great with animals, they seem to love me as much as I do them! I attend Auburn university. I usually have 1-3 classes a day, but I am done by 12pm. I am available between 12-6! What better way to spend my free time! I have a strong love for animals. I am very passionate about them. If i were to watch your fur baby, I would play with them, make sure they eat well, take them out for fresh air! I even turn on cartoons that they can see the colors with!
About: I am a freshman majoring in Pre-Vet so I am very familiar with animals especially dogs. I grew up with dogs, have a dog of my own at home, sitting, walking, training, puppies, etc. I am currently a freshman student at Auburn but my school schedule is very flexible and I have many gaps throughout my days. My busiest day this semester is Wednesday. I always treat the house like it’s my own. I am a very clean, responsible, trustworthy person who cares about how my home feels, looks, and making sure it is comfortable for everyone. I prefer pets staying in my house.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for and training my own pets. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, and now that I live on my own, I have two cats and a dog of my own. I personally trained my dog, so I’m comfortable working with basic obedience, reinforcing routines, and helping pets learn through patience and positive reinforcement. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know what makes each animal feel safe and happy. Whether I’m caring for an energetic puppy, a playful dog, or a more independent cat, I’m attentive to their individual needs and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, keeping pets active and entertained, and giving them plenty of attention and affection while their owners are away. I am recently post-grad and work as a server full time. My schedule is very flexible and my availability is open across the week! We are closed on sundays as well! I ensure a safe and happy environment for your pets to have a fun time whilst making sure theyre staying active and playing all the time!
