“James, Myrna, (and Maggie!) were caring and communicative and took good care of Spencer. Will definitely use them again. They have a wonderful house with a doggie door to an absolutely huge back yard. Spencer likes to run and I saw many videos of him doing so. Pictures and videos were sent multiple times a day. A+!”
“Corey was a last-minute life saver! Evacuated from NOLA and our condo didn't take pets which I didn't even think about until we were on our way. He was so helpful and his reviews speak for themselves. He took great care of my super anxious lab and my old laid back Shepherd mix. Nice sized yard and he was also caring for another dog the size of a small horse. Thank you again for helping us out during a very crazy week!”
“Julie and her family provided an awesome stay for our dog for a week while we were out of town! She was so kind, accommodating, and responsive. Our dog Biggie clearly had a great stay with an entire family showing him love—I would definitely recommend a stay with Julie!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our babies! The drop of and pick up was a breeze and she kept us updated each day with pictures and daily messages. Leaving our babies is so hard and finding someone who cares for them as much as we do. We hit the jackpot with Jennifer! We will absolutely be using her again. She even sent up home with a “happy” for our spoiled babies. 100% above and beyond anything we could have imagined and we are so thankful.”
“I could not recommend Callie any higher. She covers every detail, and is ready for any variation. I didn’t think I would ever be comfortable leaving my dog with anyone. I was wrong. She is THE BEST!”
“Lauryn is an amazing host. She is caring and will send you lots of pictures when your dog boards with her. She is also very patient and prioritizes our dog's health. We have had to cancel several bookings with her due to unforeseen circumstances, but she is always kind and willing to work with us. I am going to make another booking after leaving this review.”
“Courtney was an excellent sitter and very pleasant to meet. We met prior to the stay and although Beta was a little wary of her dog, Tito, she was phenomenal in getting them comfortable with each other. Beta has had exposure with many dogs but I was a bit nervous as most parents of how he would handle to anxiety (he has quite a bit at times!) I am so incredibly happy with Courtney's expertise and her sweet pictures that she sent during out trip. She is highly recommended!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Miss Brenda is wonderful! Bear enjoyed his time with her. She was so sweet and gave him the rubber chicken toy that he liked. We will definitely book with Miss Brenda in the future! She sent us video/picture updates. We loved to see that he was having fun!”
“Truly trusted sitter! My dog had a great time and warmed up very easily with Victoria. Everyone wants their dog or cat taken care of and Victoria does just that. She sent lots of pictures and provided updates whenever possible and I just knew she was loving him like her own. She will be my go-to whenever I’m in the area and I’m glad to have booked with her.”

I have a fenced in yard with two other small dogs. If your dog does not like other dogs they are crate trained and we also have available crates at my house.
“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!”
“Cheryl was great! 5 stars. I could tell immediately that she would really care about Lola and she did. She was a great communicator and a joy to work with –we’ll definitely ask her again.”
“Our Marlo enjoyed his time with Piper. They had a spacious fence back yard. We received daily photos of his stay. Will be using her services again for our summer vacation.”

“Atrisha was wonderful! She was prompt, thorough and extremely reliable. She made leaving our pets comfortable and easy. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Maegan did an excellent job caring for our six cats while we were away. She was professional, communicative, and very attentive throughout the entire trip. Most of our cats are shy with new people and spent a lot of time hiding at first, but she was patient and gentle with them, and after a few days several of them began warming up to her. She also spent extra time with them whenever she could, which we really appreciated. She kept us well informed during every visit and was very responsive when a couple unexpected concerns came up while we were away, including checking on the house during a power outage and helping with an issue involving our lamp timers. We sincerely appreciated her willingness to work with a multi-cat household, and she handled it in spades. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.”

“I CANNOT express enough how amazing Michael is. He was prompt responding to me. Easy to navigate having him come and meet my boys to see how everything will work. He kept in contact with me and even stayed a little more to love on my boys since I was gone for a week. I came home and my house wasn't a wreck, my boys were happy to have mom home, and my litter box was perfect. I was able to relax and visit with my family because I knew my boys were being taken care of. He sent tons of pictures and videos and loved them the way I do. I can't say enough good. Will definitely be booking with him again. Pleasant demeanor, open/honest, and just very caring/kind. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.”
“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!”

“We took a trip out of town for five nights and needed someone to stay with our two kitties—one being our senior girl with kidney disease who needed a lot of tending to. London could not have done a better job—she made sure everyone was fed, meds were given, the box was scooped, and had their social needs met. 🥰 It really seemed like she took care of our kitties like they were her own. 🥹 Would absolutely book her again.”
“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.”

“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!!”

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 do have a full time job, but I am available to drop in and care for your babies as I do for my family when they are out of town! Weekends especially! 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.

Taking care of animals is something that requires the same dedication that I put into my schoolwork, and is a serious responsibility.
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'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 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.

“Corey was a last-minute life saver! Evacuated from NOLA and our condo didn't take pets which I didn't even think about until we were on our way. He was so helpful and his reviews speak for themselves. He took great care of my super anxious lab and my old laid back Shepherd mix. Nice sized yard and he was also caring for another dog the size of a small horse. Thank you again for helping us out during a very crazy week!”
“Julie and her family provided an awesome stay for our dog for a week while we were out of town! She was so kind, accommodating, and responsive. Our dog Biggie clearly had a great stay with an entire family showing him love—I would definitely recommend a stay with Julie!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our babies! The drop of and pick up was a breeze and she kept us updated each day with pictures and daily messages. Leaving our babies is so hard and finding someone who cares for them as much as we do. We hit the jackpot with Jennifer! We will absolutely be using her again. She even sent up home with a “happy” for our spoiled babies. 100% above and beyond anything we could have imagined and we are so thankful.”
“I could not recommend Callie any higher. She covers every detail, and is ready for any variation. I didn’t think I would ever be comfortable leaving my dog with anyone. I was wrong. She is THE BEST!”
“Courtney was an excellent sitter and very pleasant to meet. We met prior to the stay and although Beta was a little wary of her dog, Tito, she was phenomenal in getting them comfortable with each other. Beta has had exposure with many dogs but I was a bit nervous as most parents of how he would handle to anxiety (he has quite a bit at times!) I am so incredibly happy with Courtney's expertise and her sweet pictures that she sent during out trip. She is highly recommended!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Miss Brenda is wonderful! Bear enjoyed his time with her. She was so sweet and gave him the rubber chicken toy that he liked. We will definitely book with Miss Brenda in the future! She sent us video/picture updates. We loved to see that he was having fun!”
“Truly trusted sitter! My dog had a great time and warmed up very easily with Victoria. Everyone wants their dog or cat taken care of and Victoria does just that. She sent lots of pictures and provided updates whenever possible and I just knew she was loving him like her own. She will be my go-to whenever I’m in the area and I’m glad to have booked with her.”
About: My mother is a veterinarian and I worked at her clinic for 6 summers. I know how to work with many different breeds and ages of dogs. I’m currently babysitting during the week but my schedule is very flexible. I am available for boarding or pet care Monday through Sunday at all times! I have a fenced in yard with two other small dogs. If your dog does not like other dogs they are crate trained and we also have available crates at my house.
“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!”
“Our Marlo enjoyed his time with Piper. They had a spacious fence back yard. We received daily photos of his stay. Will be using her services again for our summer vacation.”
About: Hi, I’m Paula! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m a complete softie for pets, and I do everything in my power to make sure every dog or cat in my care feels safe, loved, and genuinely happy. At home, my family includes two American Bullies and one cat, so I’m very comfortable with multi‑pet households and all the energy, personality, and joy that comes with them. I have a special love for bully breeds, but I truly enjoy working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Because my own pets have needed medication in the past, I’m experienced with administering medicine and keeping pets calm and comfortable during the process. Whether it’s daily routines, special instructions, or extra cuddles, I’m attentive and committed to giving each pet the best experience possible. My home is located in a safe, quiet neighborhood just a few blocks from Medal of Honor Park—perfect for walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor time. I’m also only about 15 minutes from Hophounds, the dog park/bar, which gives me even more options for fun outings when appropriate. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, pays attention to the little things, and genuinely loves what they do, I’d be honored to care for your furry loved ones. Pet care is already a built‑in part of my everyday life. With two American Bullies and a cat at home, my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. I’m used to managing different personalities and schedules, so adding another pet into my routine feels seamless. Throughout the week, I make time for morning and evening walks, enrichment, cleaning litter boxes, and keeping up with any medications or special instructions. Because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, it never feels like an extra task—it’s just part of how my days flow. Whether it’s daily check‑ins or longer stays, I’m already in the rhythm of providing consistent, loving care. When pets stay in my home, they’re welcomed into a calm, safe, and pet‑friendly environment. I have two American Bullies and a cat, so I’m already used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I keep routines consistent with what each pet is used to—regular feeding times, walks, play sessions, enrichment, and plenty of affection. My home is in a quiet neighborhood just blocks from Medal of Honor Park, which makes daily walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel secure while their family is away. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and litter care to walks, medication, and any special needs. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or simply offering calm companionship. In both settings, my goal is the same: to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, just like I do with my own animals
“Brick always loves to go and stay with Pongo!! Brick apparently got a little food aggressive at one point, and they were so understanding and accommodating with him and his needs. So thankful for them!”
“We had a great experience with Monica's family watching our little guy for the weekend. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up and willing to work with what he needed. He is still a puppy at 6mo old, so there were some potty issues and anxiety being in a new place but everyone handled it well.”
