“I was stressed about boarding our anxious doodle while on vacation. I took a chance with Rover and found Whitney just down the street! Leaving Willow with a family that loved on her while we were gone eased my worries. Whitney sent photos of our sweet girl relaxed. Would 100% rebook!! :)”

“Christopher & Sore were phenomenal in my first ever experience utilizing Rover! Both their service & assistance was a 10/10 HIGHLY recommend! I definitely plan to utilize them again!”

“I had a trip to Anniston planned and my lodging did not allow pets. Thankfully Kristie was available to board my pup! We are ever so grateful for her TLC and compassion. She is top notch with her dog care and communication along with photos! If I could rate her more than 5 stars, I would! Lovely personality and I know my pup was in good hands, thank you Kristie!”

“Matt was wonderful! He took great care of our sweet pup for a week & sent great updates of him. It made going on vacation so much less stressful knowing our dog was being well taken care of and was having such a fun time! Thank you so much Matt!”

“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”

“Amy was fantastic! She picked him up and dropped him off on time, sent pictures and videos daily, and was very kind. He had a wonderful time! Will most definitely be using her again ?”

“Addison was wonderful and so great with my pup! I enjoyed her daily picture updates. Riley got plenty of exercise as Addison took her to the park every day! We will be booking with Addison again!”

“I booked my two cats for boarding over six nights. My Mamacat is 17+ years old. Patch is 11+, diabetic and requires a daily insulin injections. They are 100% indoor cats. Mamacat is terribly nervous with new people, Patch not so much, but cautious. But I think I was more nervous for my babies, than any of us. I was so pleased with the reality of their stay. Due to all their existing issues, Teri housed them in a more isolated area of her home, by her master bedroom. So their contact was basically limited to Teri and her husband. Photos and updates came daily showing evidence of my kitties' progressive relaxation and adjustment. My heart was breathing a sigh of relief. One note. Due to the need of a more isolated & protected area, there was cigarette smoking in the farthest area where they were housed. For me this wasn't an issue at all. I only mention it since, in a similarly limiting need as mine, it might make a difference in decisions. It protected my "nervous nellies"; they were at ease, and I was pleased. In fact, I've already made a second booking!! I'm so grateful to have found Teri for watching my somewhat special needs furry family members. P.S. I saw a beautiful, healthy horse in the adjacent pasture. Then her personal cat came walking across the yard. As a cat lover I'm compelled to attempt petting all that I see. He was friendly, healthy and obviously happy. My nervousness immediately lowered a couple notches. I absolutely recommend Teri to look after your furbearing loved ones.”

“Harold took such good care of my dogs! I could tell he really cared about them. He sent lots of pictures of them playing and him loving on my dogs. I could tell from all the pictures that my dogs were really happy and being taken care of.”

“We feel so blessed to have "met" Shay & Zach! Our dog had so much fun playing with their dogs and I loved getting text message photos while we were away. Our flight was a bit later than expected and they had no problem with us picking our dog up at 9:45 pm. Also, I accidentally booked an extra day and didn't notice- Shay brought this to my attention and refunded us! I 100% trust them with our dog and already have multiple other stays booked with them! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!”
“Tilly had so much fun with her fur friend! And Jessica was GREAT! Very attentive and accommodating! She always sent photos when we asked! Tilly looked like she absolutely had a blast! We definitely recommend Jessica to anyone needing someone to sit their dog!”

“Madison took amazing care of our pets like they were her own! She was very gentle and loving and took lots of notes and asked lots of questions. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Jade did a great job checking in on my two cats while we were out of town. They were definitely less stressed out when we returned home (compared to times where we’ve left them alone for a few days with no sitter). Highly recommend Jade!”

Whether it’s long walks, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping their routine consistent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be dependable and attentive to each pet’s needs.

“Kayla took exceptionally great care of our cat this week! Sent updates with pictures at each visit. We’ve already rebooked her for cat care during our next trip! Would definitely recommend 💗”

About: Ever since I was 6 years old I’ve had an unusual connection with dogs. They are my world. For some reason they always seem to find me. I’m the person you see on the highway going after a lost dog. I’ve had 6 dogs at once before. I can’t seem to say no to dogs needing a home. It’s my happiness. I have my own company and pick my own hours so I’m able to work around schedules to make sure I take care of the animals. I have a fenced in backyard, with two dogs right now that are very animal friendly and sweet. I have a 5 year old daughter who loves to help out with my fiancé.

About: I’ve been handling animals ever since I was 13, this includes cats, dogs, and even bunnies! (I had one that I let free roam). Cats and Bigger dogs are always a personal favorite but I truly love animals and even considered going into veterinary sciences! I can assure you, your animal is in great hands seeing as I have a cat and two dogs myself!

“Kelly was awesome! She was professional for the meet and greet, and fantastic with our dog Lily. Lily can be a handful because she’s not good with other dogs, and large. Kelly was great managing that, and loving on her. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Ashley was amazing. She kept me informed on the boys and sent some amazing pictures and a video of them playing. Will definitely keep her in mine for our next trip. Highly recommend!!!”


“Madison’s experience at the vet gives our family such confidence that we can leave our dog in the best of hands. Her knowledge on how to handle “skiddish” dogs was perfect for our animal. She’s always on time and dependable. Boba loves her and that’s the most important thing to us. I would 100% recommend her to watch any type of animal you have.”
About: I have always had dogs as pets since I was 3 years old! I had 4 growing up and have always had at least two at a time! I have a passion for caring for pets and believe all pets should be treated like our family! I do have some experience in dog first aid and will always care for your pup as my own! I work from home full time so I am able to play with the dogs and take them on walks/hike often! I have a 3 acre yard that is tucked away and an absolute oasis for dogs! I have two dogs of my own so I am already on a potty break schedule every two hours at least! I will always treat your pet like they are my family! I do let pets on furniture if that is okay with the owner and I will follow all of your instructions very carefully. I take this job very seriously and want your pet to have the best time possible! I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is well taken care of and happy! I use Rover for my own pups when I go out of town, so I know how scary it can be to leave your pet with someone new! I will send you photos and videos throughout your stay, and you can even facetime your pet if you’d like! Whatever I can do to make your time more peaceful, please let me know 😊
About: I offer pet sitting Monday through Friday from 6am-4pm (I can be flexible on the hours), as well as over night stays and weekend stays, and dog walking.

“Flash had a great day in Doggie Daycare with Emily and her family! They played with him and took him for a walk. They were very accommodating in setting times for Flash and me to meet them and for dropping him off and picking him up. They followed the feeding instructions and made room for his dog bed and toys in their home. I really liked it that they lived in a beautiful neighborhood with sidewalks and that they had a nice fenced in back yard. You can tell they love dogs and it made me happy that Flash was comfortable with them. I recommend them as dog sitters and plan to book with them again!”

About: With over 20+ years of experience in the veterinary profession, I understand many concerns that pet parents have about leaving the care of their pets in someone else’s hands. I’m well versed in caring for dogs and cats of all age ranges. If you need someone to give your pet its medication, I’ve got you covered! If I see anything that concerns me about their health, I’ll bring that to your attention, so you can talk to your vet about that. A trusting relationship with a pet caretaker starts with good communication and attention to detail, and those are just two of my strong points. I’m committed to making sure your pets are well taken care of and doing what I can to put your mind at ease. I recently moved back to Alabama, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available seven days a week from 7:00am-6:00pm, including holidays. How much time I can spend with your pet will be dependent on how many other appointments are scheduled on the same day, and what travel time is required. Your pet’s safety is my highest priority; therefore, I require that all dogs are leash walked, unless you have a fenced yard, and your only expectation is that they have free time in the yard. I can take care of four pets maximum per household, but if there are extenuating circumstances, we can discuss this. If your pet requires medication, all medication must be labeled and set out in an obvious location. If there are any specific instructions you have that aren’t on the label, those instructions must be written out clearly.

“Sent tons of pictures which was much appreciated, very communicative and definitely made me feel at ease about my puppy! He’s so high energy and is always super crazy but he was tired when I got home after their walk/ play time! 11/10 recommend, and will definitely be booking with her again. I’ve had such terrible experiences with two other rover’s before so this was a very nice and pleasant change of pace. She definitely goes above and beyond and obviously genuinely cares so much about the dogs she takes care of.”

I am comfortable around all breeds and sizes of dogs, as well as cats. I do prefer long term care (I will watch your pet same hours weekly) but am also open to one time care as well. I have a large fenced in back yard, a great neighborhood for walking and I will also allow the pets to stay inside as well. I do have a 4 year old who will be home during the summer but will be in school starting August but he is very good with animals. I look forward to hearing from you.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with 6+ years of professional veterinary experience and several years of professional pet-sitting experience. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, including senior pets, medication administration, special diets, and pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping your pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and provide plenty of love, care, and updates along the way! I’m a full-time veterinary assistant, so my availability varies around my work schedule. I have an allotted lunch break that I can use for midday visits when location and timing allow. I’m upfront about my availability and will work with you to find a schedule that best fits your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners and make sure pets stay in a safe, secure, and familiar environment. My veterinary experience also allows me to confidently recognize changes in behavior or health. Clear communication is important to me, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos throughout each visit.
About: Hi, I’m Anna 🖤 I’m a calm, dependable pet sitter providing structured, low-stress care for dogs and cats throughout Ashville, Gadsden, Rainbow City, Southside, and nearby areas. I specialize in caring for puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, special-needs pets, multi-pet households, and dogs who thrive with routine, patience, and clear expectations. Whether your pet needs relaxing companionship, playtime and exercise, medication support, or consistent daily routines, I focus on making every visit feel safe, comfortable, and personalized to their needs. I understand how important peace of mind is when trusting someone with your pets and home. My goal is always the same: dependable communication, reliable care, photo updates, and a calm environment where your pet feels emotionally secure while you’re away. I have experience with: • Puppies and potty training routines • Senior dog care • Oral and injected medications • Reactive or anxious dogs • Structured feeding schedules • Multi-pet households • High-energy dogs needing exercise • Calm companionship for shy pets • Crate-trained and routine-based care • Drop-ins, walks, boarding, daycare, and overnight care One of my own dogs, Velma, has been raised using calm, consistent structure both at home and in public settings. That experience taught me how much dogs benefit from patience, fairness, routine, and clear boundaries. I bring that same balanced energy into every pet care visit. Safety is extremely important to me. I use leashes or secure harnesses during outdoor time, monitor pet interactions carefully, maintain clean feeding routines, and follow household instructions closely to help keep pets safe and stress-free. A typical visit may include: • Walks or exercise • Potty breaks • Fresh food and water • Medication administration if needed • Playtime and enrichment • Calm companionship • Safety checks • Photo and Rover Card updates I know every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and routines, so I tailor care to fit what helps them feel happiest and most secure. I also understand that communication matters. I respond quickly, provide regular updates, and do my best to make owners feel fully informed and comfortable throughout the booking process. Thank you for considering me to care for your pets 🖤 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family. Availability I currently offer dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week 🖤 My goal is to provide dependable, calm, and structured care that helps dogs feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. Preferred scheduling hours: Morning Visits: 8 AM–11 AM Midday Visits: 11 AM–2 PM Afternoon Visits: 2 PM–5 PM Evening Visits: 5 PM–7 PM I’m experienced with: • Puppies and structured potty routines • Senior dogs • Multi-dog households • Medication schedules • High-energy dogs needing exercise • Anxious or routine-based dogs needing calm, patient care During drop-in visits and walks, I focus on safety, communication, routine, and personalized attention. Owners can expect reliable updates, photos, and attentive care during every visit so they feel informed and confident while away from their pets 🖤 Your dog’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities 🖤 I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home, so I focus heavily on dependable communication, calm handling, and maintaining a clean, structured environment during every visit. I believe dogs thrive best with patience, consistency, routine, and clear boundaries. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, energy level, comfort needs, and daily routine so care feels as stress-free and familiar as possible while you’re away. Safety practices include: • Secure leash and harness handling • Careful monitoring during walks and outdoor time • Slow introductions and supervised interactions • Clean feeding and water routines • Close attention to medications and instructions • Monitoring behavior, appetite, mood, and energy levels • Maintaining locked doors, gates, and household safety routines I’m especially mindful of anxious dogs, senior dogs, puppies, and pets who need extra patience or structure. Some dogs need energetic play and exercise, while others simply need calm companionship and reassurance. I tailor care to what helps your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I also know that communication builds trust. Owners can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout each booking so you always feel informed and connected while away from your pet. My goal is simple: to create a calm, reliable, and loving environment where dogs feel secure and owners feel complete peace of mind 🖤

“I was stressed about boarding our anxious doodle while on vacation. I took a chance with Rover and found Whitney just down the street! Leaving Willow with a family that loved on her while we were gone eased my worries. Whitney sent photos of our sweet girl relaxed. Would 100% rebook!! :)”

“Christopher & Sore were phenomenal in my first ever experience utilizing Rover! Both their service & assistance was a 10/10 HIGHLY recommend! I definitely plan to utilize them again!”

“I had a trip to Anniston planned and my lodging did not allow pets. Thankfully Kristie was available to board my pup! We are ever so grateful for her TLC and compassion. She is top notch with her dog care and communication along with photos! If I could rate her more than 5 stars, I would! Lovely personality and I know my pup was in good hands, thank you Kristie!”

“Matt was wonderful! He took great care of our sweet pup for a week & sent great updates of him. It made going on vacation so much less stressful knowing our dog was being well taken care of and was having such a fun time! Thank you so much Matt!”

“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”

“Amy was fantastic! She picked him up and dropped him off on time, sent pictures and videos daily, and was very kind. He had a wonderful time! Will most definitely be using her again ?”

“Addison was wonderful and so great with my pup! I enjoyed her daily picture updates. Riley got plenty of exercise as Addison took her to the park every day! We will be booking with Addison again!”

“I booked my two cats for boarding over six nights. My Mamacat is 17+ years old. Patch is 11+, diabetic and requires a daily insulin injections. They are 100% indoor cats. Mamacat is terribly nervous with new people, Patch not so much, but cautious. But I think I was more nervous for my babies, than any of us. I was so pleased with the reality of their stay. Due to all their existing issues, Teri housed them in a more isolated area of her home, by her master bedroom. So their contact was basically limited to Teri and her husband. Photos and updates came daily showing evidence of my kitties' progressive relaxation and adjustment. My heart was breathing a sigh of relief. One note. Due to the need of a more isolated & protected area, there was cigarette smoking in the farthest area where they were housed. For me this wasn't an issue at all. I only mention it since, in a similarly limiting need as mine, it might make a difference in decisions. It protected my "nervous nellies"; they were at ease, and I was pleased. In fact, I've already made a second booking!! I'm so grateful to have found Teri for watching my somewhat special needs furry family members. P.S. I saw a beautiful, healthy horse in the adjacent pasture. Then her personal cat came walking across the yard. As a cat lover I'm compelled to attempt petting all that I see. He was friendly, healthy and obviously happy. My nervousness immediately lowered a couple notches. I absolutely recommend Teri to look after your furbearing loved ones.”

“Harold took such good care of my dogs! I could tell he really cared about them. He sent lots of pictures of them playing and him loving on my dogs. I could tell from all the pictures that my dogs were really happy and being taken care of.”

“Stephanie is (by far) our favorite sitter on Rover. She treats our little dachshund as if she is a member of the family and gives her so much love and affection. She is also fantastic to work with and we enjoy her updates. Highly, highly recommended.”
