“Atrisha was amazing with my two dogs. She send pictures and kept us updated. They both came home very happy! I will definitely use her inbthe future for my dogs!”

“My first time ever boarding my cat for the day. I was very hesitant and know it’s not the best for cats however had an emergency come up that required this to be my only option for the day. She was timely with response, handled everything with care and worked with me on pick up as this changed on my end as well. I highly recommend!”

“This was my third time to board my pup in Natalie’s home. Natalie and her family are amazing and go above and beyond to meet my pup’s needs. I dropped him off with tummy issues and received many updates on how he was doing throughout the stay. No need to look further, Natalie and her family will love your fur baby as their own!”
“I am an admitted helicopter fur Mom as my sweet Murphy, just 5 weeks after his passing, is how I came through losing my husband of 29 years. She also has seizures and allergy issues. It was time for a vacation though and Corey was my choice based on other previous ROVER reviews. He took her medications in stride as well as her 2x a week allergy shots. His backyard is spacious and he knows how to work with dogs. He sent pictures a plenty. Although I was apprehensive leaving her for 2 weeks, I could tell Murphy was having a great time. I plan to use Corey again for some conference trips this Fall.”

“Amazing people! My dogs had so much fun this weekend and got spoiled with lots of treats! Lots of videos and pictures to go along with their fun weekend away from home.”
“In my professional opinion, it appears that the universe may have intervened to introduce Charlie into our lives. During an urgent situation, Charlie promptly arrived and assumed responsibility for our 80-pound PitBull. Naturally, I was concerned since our dog had never been left with anyone other than us. However, Charlie demonstrated exceptional competence in handling our pet, and Bentley responded with remarkable receptiveness. It is evident that Charlie possesses a unique talent in understanding and communicating with dogs, which makes him an ideal candidate for our full-time dog-sitting needs.”

“I cannot say enough about Victoria and Danny. My puppy has never been around big dogs or young energetic dogs. He has only been around my husband and I as well as my husband’s parents, who usually keep him when we’re away. They have a dog, but their dog is 8 years old and very calm and quiet. When I realized our family would all be out of town on the same weekend, I was very worried about putting our pup in a large boarding facility for fear it would overwhelm and frighten him. My fears were confirmed when I took him walking one day and we came upon a larger energetic dog. My poor pup was afraid of the friendly dog who just wanted to meet him. I knew it was time to socialize him more, but wanted to do it in a smaller setting with fewer dogs and someone who could give him a bit more attention. I was so blessed to find Victoria. I explained everything to her and she was so kind and on board to help in any way. We met a few days before his boarding day and although he was very timid and only wanted to stay by my side, she was so patient with him and gave him time to grow comfortable with her and his new surroundings. She even interdict”

“Jennifer kept us up-to-date with photos and video of our Buttercup. Buttercup had never been with other dogs before and she apparently had unlimited energy with Jennifer's dogs and her. When she got home, she slept until 2:00 p.m. the next day. She was worn out -- so you know she had a great time!!”

“Brenda was great!! Little Kat got all the attention she could handle, and had fun exploring a new place. Brenda sent lots of pictures, and took great care of our princess.”

“Ms. Ann is AMAZING!! My first time using Rover and I was a little skeptical because my fur baby is my everything.. but Ms. Ann knows exactly what she’s doing. Please book her for your dog sitting needs!”

“We love Lauryn! She takes such good care of Molly and Molly is always so excited to see her! It gives me so much peace of mind to know my fur baby is in good hands!”

“Michael was a great Rover!! Great communicator- sent many updates and photos! Was very understanding of our dogs’ needs! Would definitely recommend to anyone we know!”

“My dog fell in love with Callie two minutes after I dropped him off. She takes pictures and videos of Oreo and sends daily updates. She is responsive, patient and the nicest person. She really took care of Oreo like one of her own. I’m very grateful for all she’s done. We feel very lucky to have found her. I’m pretty sure Oreo is ready to see her again already. ?”

“Piper is such an ideal caretaker! She was so excellent in making my dog feel at home, safe, and loved for. She was so communicative, sent great photos, and is incredibly kind! Piper is the best; I plan on booking services with her again!”


“Lauri kept our senior dog for a weekend and I had no doubts leaving him in her care! Our dog has only stayed with family members and this was his first time staying with someone else and he had a blast!! We can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our old man!!”


“We were nervous to leave Benny for the first time but Allie and her family were great and took wonderful care of him! He had a great time playing with their dog Chipper, who is so friendly and seems like he gets along with any dog! So thankful we found them and would highly recommend! Also, received pictures and updates which was so nice!”

“Maegan is amazing! We will definitely be using her again. She completely stole my cats hearts and took excellent care of them. She truly did the above and beyond while we were away during Christmas. Thank you Maegan!”

About: Big dog lovers and would love to help you with your sitting needs from overnight care in my home or yours, daily dog walking services, and daily check in’s. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to watch your doggies. I can do drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight care in my home, house-sitting, or daily daycare. I am able to drop in to walk, feed, and play with your pet during the early mornings and evenings. Typically available everyday of the week.

“Caitlin was incredible with our two cats. They were shy and scared being away from home for the first time but they were both treated well and well-cared for by Caitlin, who kept us updated throughout tue day with photos. Thank you immensely Caitlin!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 10 years old. Family members have always depended on me to check in, feed, and play with their sweet kitties when they are away from home. I have previous experience with caring for cats at a vet clinic as well. I always love to treat other people’s cats as if they were my own! Cats hold a special place in my heart and I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your precious baby!

About: I've enjoyed the companionship of cats my whole life. I've regularly cat-sat for others and have also been involved in rescuing feral cats. Available to help with feeding, administering medication, cleaning litter boxes and spending time with your cat :)

“This is my second time booking with Michael. He honestly is the best/most awesome sitter ever. He always takes the upmost care of my boys. And hangs out with them longer/loves on them. He made sure to alert me to my middle baby hiding in the cabinet some so I could take him to the vet and make sure everything was okay. I can't say enough positive honestly!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for animals through personal pet care and my background as a caregiver. I’m very dependable, patient, and attentive to routines, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I’m experienced with feeding, fresh water, cleaning up, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need during each visit. I understand how important it is to follow instructions closely and keep pets on their normal schedule. I’m currently available for morning and evening drop-in visits, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available for morning visits before 10am and evening visits after 6pm due to my daytime work schedule. I also have full availability on Sundays, which allows me to take on multiple visits if needed. I’m consistent, reliable, and always make sure pets are cared for on time and according to their routine. I care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, medications if needed, and any specific routines. I always make sure doors are secure, pets are safe, and the home is left exactly as I found it. I provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own.

“Great communication! She really seemed to want to provide the best experience for our big guy while we were away. Because she was so conscientious and sent such awesome photos, we were able to have a nice relaxing trip. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. We will be using her again”


About: I’ve been caring for cats for about 10 years and genuinely enjoy their unique personalities and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and understand how important it is for pet owners to feel comfortable leaving their pets in someone else’s care. I focus on making cats feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have 13 years of experience caring for cats and understand the importance of patience, comfort, and routine when it comes to feline care. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every cat feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, play with, clean litter boxes for, medicate them,and care for their cats. I treat every pet with kindness, love, and the same level of care I would give my own.

“Sandy took really good care of my cats and did additional things that like cleaning up cat throw up and vacuuming. Her communication with me about what was going on with my cats was outstanding and sent me many pictures so I could see them.”

About: I've had many pets in my life, and cared for other kinds of animals in the past as well. I've owned multiple dogs, a few cats, and I've even taken care of birds when needed. I love animals and care about them a whole lot, and I have a lot of love to give, enough to share with others' pets as well as my own! I'm a fresh college student willing to form my schedules around each other and fit both my work life and school life together, so I'm sure to have the time needed to take care of your pet. I currently own two cats, who I make sure have all the toys and provide the entertainment they need to be happy, because I understand how boring it can be to play on your own all the time. My friend has a puppy I occasionally take care of as well, and I do my best to continue basic training, like house breaking and simple commands, while I take care of him. I'm gentle with animals, and patient with them, but I'm willing to show them to listen if needed. Of course, I do my best to do that by playing into their natural instincts and social structure rather than just using full force.

“Our 2nd visit to Michael’s house was as great as the first. I hope to be able to book with him every time I need doggy day care or boarding for my two pups. I feel so much better when my pups are with Michael instead of home alone just getting a few 15 minute drop in visits. My two babies were in no hurry to leave today when I arrived because they have found their home away from home. Thanks Michael!!”

We are home all the time. We also engage and play with our pets all the time. We have plenty of toys to keep them amused too. Our large back yard is fully fenced and safe and clean at all times. We constantly clean up debris. We monitor playtime and meals to make sure they are safe at all times.
“Jupiter had a great time and Caitlin came through on a very short notice. Easy drop off and pick up, great communication throughout, and I received plenty of photos. Jupiter had a walk, plenty of exercise and in general it was a great stay.”

About: Every pup needs a Step-Ma. Someone he/she can call when no one is around. Accompanied with 50 years of motherly, animal-loving experiences - meet a near retired, empty-nester looking for a way to fulfill a nurturing need now that all the children and animals have moved into their own home. Special skills include an ability to go on brisk walks around the neighborhood with your pup, add-on a talent of novice dog-training skills acquired from being raised by a dog whisperer mom, and fun time with tennis balls and frisbees. I currently work part-time throughout the week, but make my own schedule a week in advance. I am available most days from the early mornings til 11 AM. My works shifts are only 3 hours at a time, so I will be able to spend much needed time with your fur-baby when visiting/boarding and hanging out at my home. I have a fenced yard with a nice back deck if your pet likes to lounge outside. There are no other dogs here, just a couple of yard cats that patrol the perimeter and stay far away from dogs. I have a 2-story home, if your pup is like my son's boxer, Riley - she enjoys running up and down the stairs to play tag. There's soft furniture available for cozying up when spending the night, and a fireplace for the wintertime to snuggle up to after a brisk run in the cold night air. There's other fun stuff, too, like tennis balls, stuffed animals, bubbles, and water sprinklers. And, of course, treats.

About: I've had pets my entire life. I have experience with dogs, cats, snakes, lizards and other small animals. I can administer medicine to friendly animals, and cleanliness, kindness and communication are my priorities. I am currently a full-time online graduate student and am therefore usually very flexible. My daily routine involves taking my child to and from school and sports. For in-home boarding, I have a fenced yard and a separate indoor/outdoor space for my own kitties to remain separate from your pet. Small dogs can enjoy hanging with me and/or playing outside during the day. I'm always up for lap cuddles! I prefer to crate the dog during night-time hours, from about 10pm until 6:30am.

“This was a last-minute booking because I thought I had somebody lined up previously but that didn't pan out. Such an awesome job, I really really do appreciate it because it was very important that they had somebody to watch them. Thank you so much and I will be using you again!”

About: I have had dogs, sometimes multiple ones, all my life. I am an animal lover, and advocate, of all kinds of animals. I just lost my Maltese of 13 years old which traveled the world with me literally. I was only away from him for two nights his whole life, and that was bc he spent the night at the vets one night, and I spent the night at the hospital one night. He went everywhere with me. From restaurants to Walmart. If I went he went. I have no children, so he was my child. I will treat your baby with the same love, and care. I have a newly build house with an acre that is fenced in. So, if your dog is large and likes to run outside, it can. I also have a screened in back porch. You baby will be safe and loved in my home. I am retired and spend most of my time at home. So your dog will be supervised, as per hour request. I am flexible and will listen to the owners request, as much as possible. I have a fenced in acre of land. I also have a screen in back porch. If you have small dogs, they can run freely, and I would stay outside to watch them. If you have large dogs they can stay out all they want. Dogs love me! They know if you are of good character, or not.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of fur babies since I was 10 years old! From helping my family with their pets to working at a vet clinic before. I make it a huge priority when I have someone else’s pet in my care. I like to treat other people's fur babies as if they were my own because all pets are family! I typically care for my families pets all the time when they are away from home. I check in, feed, and play with their pets. A pet needs the attention that lacks for when their owner is gone, so I provide that attention for them. I love taking long hikes/walks, so having a precious fur baby by my side makes it more adventurous. Especially when stopping to play with their favorite toy! I have experience in caring for senior pets. I know how to give oral medication and other treatments for ill babies. I know how to properly bathe dogs while also clipping their claws and cleaning out their ears. I am aware of how to train puppies to sit and give paw for a treat. I adore all kinds of pets and with that being said I also have experience with caring for farm pets. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your baby! I can travel anywhere throughout Mobile county, AL! I stay at home full time while caring for my fur baby! So I can have opportunities to care for other people's pets as well! I care for people’s fur babies by following given instructions on how to care for them. From feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. Simply spending time with their fur baby is very important so the baby doesn’t feel lonely while the owners are gone.

“Atrisha was great! She came to visit the "boys" the same day I contacted her, and she was very accommodating when I asked her to come back on the same day. I will be requesting her services again.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for the past 10 years and have owned my own pets since I was a little kid. Whether it’s staying at someone’s house with their pets, dog walking, or just doing check-ins each day, I have lots of experience loving on fur babies! I currently only work part time on weekdays, so all of my evenings and weekends are available to care for and check in on your fur babies!! I am extremely thorough and follow pet rules/recommendations exactly how you want them to be done. I take care of pets exactly how I’d want mine to be taken care of when I’m out of town! I also pay extra attention to loving on them and giving them the attention they need while their pet parent isn’t around.

About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds but specifically medium to larger dogs like labradors, huskies, and German shepherds. I have been dog sitting ever since I was 14. Family, friends, and others. I have experience in dog sitting, walking and running with them, feeding, and bathing them as well. I have helped take care of many puppies and senior dogs too! I am a college student so I am pretty much free anytime outside of class which is generally anytime before 9 and after 4. I have multiple breaks throughout the day though, so I can walk, feed, or just check in on the pups when needed. I usually just ask how my clients interact with their dogs and do the same. Like where the dogs are allowed to go in the house or outside of it, any command words that they use often, how often they need exercise, etc. I have a lot of experience with different dogs and different dog owners so it looks different depending on the household.
About: I’ve had 2 dogs my entire life (Jack Russell and Toy Poodle) and many of my family members have animals of all sizes! I’d love to spend time with your furry friend when you need it!!

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child and always have loved animals. I have three dogs and two cats of my own that are well loved and taken care of. I am an excellent communicator and can keep you as up to date as you would like with pictures or texts. If your pets are staying with me or are here for the day my yard is fenced and is divided into three fenced areas. I have dogs, but they can be kept separated if they aren’t good with other animals. Tons of space to run and play. I am comfortable taking care of animals that have dietary restrictions, require medicine administered, or other special needs. I currently work from home and am an athlete in my free time. I usually am gone for only a couple hours a day when I train. Pets staying with me have the option of being kept separately from my pets. Although my pets are all well socialized and friendly. I would treat your pets with the same level of patience and care as I give my own fur babies. Going away can be hard and I am happy to keep you updated with all the pictures and texts to help not feel so far away.
“Kaleb has been such a huge help with our 2 labs! He is calm and confident, prompt, knowledgeable and communicates well. He has come up with several helpful suggestions as I work to keep the dogs entertained and mentally stimulated, and has no trouble reinforcing their existing training. After just a few visits, it is clear the dogs recognize he has come to take them for a walk and are happy to see him! Highly recommend Kaleb!”

About: Hi! I'm an animal lover with 2 years of pet sitting experience, along with all necessary certifications working with animals. All I need is a chance to express that I can be a patient, sensitive, and reliable pet caregiver. I currently have full time availability to pet sit your pet(s)! Please reach out ahead of time for upcoming holidays. My goal is to become a full time pet sitter w my own pet sitting business. *Indoors in my home I can assure that any harmful items will not be in sight, I don't have children nor do I have pets of my own at the moment, and I'm pretty neat. Front and patio door remains closed and locked unless going out with the pet. There is central cooling, of course there's going to be playtime indoors and outdoors, and soon I can provide extra pet supplies, but do feel free to bring your own. *Indoors in your home will be the same and I will apply your preferred schedule/routine while you're away! I believe in respecting other people's home, so if I make a mess, I'm cleaning up after myself! Also security of the home is important to me, so I do prefer to be knowledgeable of your home security system if you have one. Outdoors/ In Vehicle Leashes will be used as it is required by local guidelines, I prefer to take your pet out early mornings or evenings (7:00p.m) for potty time, but if you request them to be taken out a time of day where the sun is scorching hot, I will keep the out time very short. Feeding bowls or trays will be brought in my vehicle once I purchase another one, so your pet(s) can have nutrition on the go too!
About: I have a deep love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I have so much compassion in my approach to dogs who are grieving the loss of a sibling or companion. I understand the emotional needs of lonely dogs and provide gentle, attentive care to help them feel safe, comforted, and loved. Whether it’s quiet companionship, extra cuddles, or keeping their routine consistent, I’m here to support their healing with patience and heart. I’m a full time student during the fall and spring, but have an extremely flexible schedule and will be free all summer. During the fall, I’ll still be free to care for your pups! I have a fenced in backyard, and two friendly and playful dogs. They are loved deeply and are only in a kennel when I’m out of the house.

“I am an admitted helicopter fur Mom as my sweet Murphy, just 5 weeks after his passing, is how I came through losing my husband of 29 years. She also has seizures and allergy issues. It was time for a vacation though and Corey was my choice based on other previous ROVER reviews. He took her medications in stride as well as her 2x a week allergy shots. His backyard is spacious and he knows how to work with dogs. He sent pictures a plenty. Although I was apprehensive leaving her for 2 weeks, I could tell Murphy was having a great time. I plan to use Corey again for some conference trips this Fall.”

“In my professional opinion, it appears that the universe may have intervened to introduce Charlie into our lives. During an urgent situation, Charlie promptly arrived and assumed responsibility for our 80-pound PitBull. Naturally, I was concerned since our dog had never been left with anyone other than us. However, Charlie demonstrated exceptional competence in handling our pet, and Bentley responded with remarkable receptiveness. It is evident that Charlie possesses a unique talent in understanding and communicating with dogs, which makes him an ideal candidate for our full-time dog-sitting needs.”

“I cannot say enough about Victoria and Danny. My puppy has never been around big dogs or young energetic dogs. He has only been around my husband and I as well as my husband’s parents, who usually keep him when we’re away. They have a dog, but their dog is 8 years old and very calm and quiet. When I realized our family would all be out of town on the same weekend, I was very worried about putting our pup in a large boarding facility for fear it would overwhelm and frighten him. My fears were confirmed when I took him walking one day and we came upon a larger energetic dog. My poor pup was afraid of the friendly dog who just wanted to meet him. I knew it was time to socialize him more, but wanted to do it in a smaller setting with fewer dogs and someone who could give him a bit more attention. I was so blessed to find Victoria. I explained everything to her and she was so kind and on board to help in any way. We met a few days before his boarding day and although he was very timid and only wanted to stay by my side, she was so patient with him and gave him time to grow comfortable with her and his new surroundings. She even interdict”

“Jennifer kept us up-to-date with photos and video of our Buttercup. Buttercup had never been with other dogs before and she apparently had unlimited energy with Jennifer's dogs and her. When she got home, she slept until 2:00 p.m. the next day. She was worn out -- so you know she had a great time!!”

“Brenda was great!! Little Kat got all the attention she could handle, and had fun exploring a new place. Brenda sent lots of pictures, and took great care of our princess.”

“Ms. Ann is AMAZING!! My first time using Rover and I was a little skeptical because my fur baby is my everything.. but Ms. Ann knows exactly what she’s doing. Please book her for your dog sitting needs!”

“Michael was a great Rover!! Great communicator- sent many updates and photos! Was very understanding of our dogs’ needs! Would definitely recommend to anyone we know!”

“My dog fell in love with Callie two minutes after I dropped him off. She takes pictures and videos of Oreo and sends daily updates. She is responsive, patient and the nicest person. She really took care of Oreo like one of her own. I’m very grateful for all she’s done. We feel very lucky to have found her. I’m pretty sure Oreo is ready to see her again already. ?”

“Piper is such an ideal caretaker! She was so excellent in making my dog feel at home, safe, and loved for. She was so communicative, sent great photos, and is incredibly kind! Piper is the best; I plan on booking services with her again!”


“Lauri kept our senior dog for a weekend and I had no doubts leaving him in her care! Our dog has only stayed with family members and this was his first time staying with someone else and he had a blast!! We can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our old man!!”

“Rachel was wonderful! My cat had never been away from me so she had a difficult time. Rachel kept me up to date the entire time that she had her. She went above and beyond!”
