“My experience with Jacob was 5+ stars throughout the entire process: booking, answering questions, flexibility with drop off and pick up, updates from him on how our baby was adapting, and many other things. Jacob took excellent care of our 14 year old poodle. HIGHLY recommend him and we will definitely have him care of our pets in the future!”
“Our boy had a blast at Terwrin's! We received pictures and updates daily. He even got some couch time! He was happy when we picked him up. Terwrin even had him and his things ready to go, to minimize the chaos, when we arrived. We definitely felt at ease leaving him and will book again. Thank you for showing our Winston some love for a few days!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our Buttercup! Jennifer is a caring, kind person who obviously loves dogs. She has taken care of our dog for 6 days these last 2 months and we couldn't be any more thrilled. We will always leave our Buttercup with Jennifer!!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our little Lady! Sending pics, and updates make leaving her a little less stressful. She says Thank you also! Will definitely use you again!”
“Sweetie had a great time with Lindsey and family. Lindsey sent pictures and videos and updates on how she was doing. We really appreciated her sending these. We will definitely use her again.”
“From the moment I dropped Leo off, I was sent photos of him having the best time. They kept in touch throughout the entire week, which was reassuring and gave me peace of mind while I was away on vacation. This was my first time using Rover and leaving my elderly fur baby with anyone new, and I truly felt safe knowing he was in their care. I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave Leo and he got to socialize with the kids and pups 🥰🐾”
“It was so amazing having Kerry & Kim watch our 2 dogs while we vacationed at the gulf! They texted pictures daily, and definitely went the extra mile! Our dogs definitely enjoyed their big backyard, & we will most definitely book again!!!”
“Ileana is great. Kona loves going on adventures with her and getting to live her best dog life. We enjoy all the pictures and videos of proof of life and getting to see what Kona's day consists of. Kona enjoys rolling around with Christine and stealing Lola's nap spots. I have no worries when Kona is there and she is always excited to see Ileana. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby! We'll see you soon.”
“Sofia was an absolute godsend. She's incredibly dependable, professional and kind. And it's a bonus that she's a vet tech. I had never left my dog with a stranger before, so I was nervous about leaving her for a weekend. But Sofia was so communicative and responsive that my anxiety quickly vanished. I will 100% user her again.”
“Fiona sent pictures and an update everyone day and twice the first day! We enjoyed hearing how well our pup was doing and seeing how happy she was to be running around and playing outside. Plan on using Fiona in the future!!!”

“Caroline was absolutely amazing with our sweet Jackson! We needed a sitter the same day, and she came through for us without hesitation. She kept us updated, communicated every step of the way, and treated Jackson like he was her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby. Thank you again ..we’ll definitely be booking with you in the future!”

They provide a great home environment for pups. Will definitely use them again when I’m back in the area and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter.”

She really makes time to play with your dog and give so much care. She deserve more than the pay she ask for, you will never regret boarding the dog to her, they got back yard and your dog will have so much fun.”

“Great communication. Coaxed my scardy cats out from their hiding places and took good care of them. Sent pictures at each visit and everything was kept clean and neat. We will plan to use Ariel again.”
“Matthew did a wonderful job with my kitties. It’s a relief to know they are being taken care of every day. He is very kind and courteous and I felt very comfortable having him come into my house with my animals!”
“This was our first time using Brinkley and a pet sitting service for our cat. She communicated with us daily and with details, which we really appreciated. The photos she sent meant a lot to us, and her caring nature and TLC were everything we hoped for. We were extremely pleased, and highly recommend her services.”
“Gabrielle's care of my cat Hari puts me in awe. Hari has been my pet as an indoor / outdoor cat for only 6 weeks. He is a newly socialized, formerly feral cat who went through the T & R process about 4 years ago. Before I adopted him from a neighbor (who had rescued him and his many brothers), Hari had never spent a night inside house. Over the past 6 weeks, he has learned to eat and play in the house and stay cuddled up in bed for part the night. But this routine and my bond with him are new. I had a great concern that he would fee abandoned, even with Gabrielle's daily visits to make sure he had wet food and fresh water to accompany his kibble in a gravity feeder. Besides making sure he was well fed, Gabrielle called him in each day, genuinely connected with him, and gave him an abundance of highly effective attention. She is skilled in the light touch therapy Jenn Shin Jyutsu, and I've arrived home to a calmer, more integrated Hari. He was not only well cared for by Gabrielle. He is transformed into more of a house cat with a love of the outdoors. I feel that his bond with his new home has been strengthened.”
“Erica never fails to give the BEST care and love to our babies while we travel. She’s so sweet and kind, and we love having such a reliable person to always turn to. ^_^”
About: I have always had pets, ever since I was little. I know what they need. My sister is also a vet tech so there is no need to worry if something goes wrong. I am currently working a 9-5 job as a hair stylist in daphne. I work every Tuesday through Saturday. I have church on Sunday. I am off all day Monday. My dog is very spoiled. She loves to go for car rides and walks. Her favorite thing is her chuck it ball thrower. She will never pass down a treat.
“Bo was an exceptional sitter!! I would give her more stars if I could. I have an extremely high maintenance senior cat who requires medication, a special diet (like preparing a buffet twice a day) and a list of other instructions. Bo took care of all of her needs. She gave me several updates per day and also sent a bunch of photos - great communication. Bo cared for my little diva like she was her own!”
“Allie is super caring and our fur babies love her. She took great care of them. She kept on schedule with the drop ins and communicated every day. Give her a call you won't be disappointed. Thank you Allie!”
“We love Courtney, she was so sweet with the boys! Sent me some adorable photos of them and we had a quick meet and greet just a couple days before on short notice, so that was super helpful and I greatly appreciated it. I’ll definitely be booking with her again eleven the time arrives. 😊”
About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings. I do have a fenced yard for the zoomies and a neighborhood with a sidewalk for walks. I look forward to getting to know your family pets and working together :) I take bookings only when I know I will have plenty of time during your pets stay to be sure they’re being walked and supervised while running around the yard. I have a fenced in yard for letting your pets outside and a crate, if your pet is crate trained. I am happy to follow any special instructions that you may have for your pets.
“Kim and Kerry were great! They took in our kitty last minute for a night and we felt very safe dropping her off with them. Our kitty Dez had a great time and we were able to enjoy a short vacation. I would 100% recommend kim and Kerry to watch your fur baby!”
About: While every pet sitter is great and have great qualities, there is something that set each of us apart but also make us very alike. We all have a love for animals. What is unique about me, is that this is my personal opportunity to be around more animals than I myself can have. It is my pleasure to keep your beloved pets safe and happy. This is a part of me that I want to embrace in life. There’s no bad dogs in my book! I can be very attentive to your dog’s needs, whether they need more exercise or if they’re in need of a potty break. I have loved dogs all my life so you can be sure your dog is in great hands! I recently moved here from Gulfport and I am seeking to continue dog sitting as I did before. I look forward to meeting new faces. I can care for your pets in my home by giving them attention and love. They will be able to freely roam the house and the yard when leashed. I also offer free baths if you’d like for your pup to go home smelling fresh! 🚿 I work part time elsewhere until I can make this full time. Some weekends I’m busy with family, but when I have nothing going on I’m able to provide pet care. I have a two dogs of my own that will get to spend time with your pups. I have a great amount of outdoor space for them to run around and play. When they’re inside I keep them company and make sure I’m watching what they do. They also get plenty of cuddles from me and my husband. I also watch that both your pups and my own are playing nice and aren’t getting too rough with each other. As for care in your home, I make sure everything is left where it was last seen so nothing is missed. I make sure their area is left clean before leaving and nothing they shouldn’t have is around.
“Abigail was wonderful. She did several drop in visits for our two pups while we were out of town for a long weekend. She took great care of them and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely use her again.”

“Kristin's care is like home away from home. We could tell that it was a good experience as Bella had a very waggy tail :) Will reach out again when we need daycare or an overnight stay!”
“I found a pet sitter for my dog Bruno on the Rover app while we enjoyed Orange Beach. Michael took great care of Bruno. His house is spacious and has a nice backyard, which was great for Bruno to play in. The communication was excellent; he sent me photos and updates. When I came back to pick up Bruno, he was very happy. Michael and his two dogs have amazing energy. Thanks, Michael! I definitely recommend him to other pet owners.”
“Our sweet Bella loved her time with Lindsey! She wants to come see her again but we live in Oklahoma! If we are ever back here or if we have a friend coming here we will definitely refer to Lindsey! ❣️”

About: “Unlike many sitters, I’m home all day which means your dog gets consistent attention, care, and companionship. I maintain a peaceful, structured home environment and only take a limited number of dogs to ensure each one receives personalized love and supervision. I do not do meet and greets for safety reasons. “Being home full-time allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Your dog will be included in our day with regular walks, playtime, and constant supervision in a relaxed, loving home environment “Dogs in my care enjoy a spacious, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood ideal for stress-free walks, and I’m located less than a mile from Loxley Municipal Park for extra activity and enrichment opportunities.”
“Jen was fantastic with Olive! He loved playing with her dogs and swimming. He was absolutely exhausted that evening and the next day from all the fun (which is no small feat for a working cocker!). Jen was super responsive and gave great updates throughout the day! We will definitely be sending Olive to stay/play with Jen again!”

I work in the medical field myself (on humans) but have had plenty of opportunities over the years to be exposed to different breeds and what works best for them. I’m looking forward to getting to know your dog’s personality and what care best suits them! When I was about ten years old, my family adopted our first dog. I had had it written on my mirror for MONTHS - “I want a beagle.” The timing was perfect that one just happen to wander into our lives (he was about a year old at that time)! I spent my childhood caring for my dog, taking him on daily walks. Flash forward a few years to the end of his life, he unfortunately went blind and was diagnosed with diabetes. I helped care for him by giving him his insulin shots and making it as easy as possible to navigate the house. I was very involved in his care during his senior years and have always had a soft spot for elderly dogs. When I was in college, I decided to take on a dog of my own and got a puppy for the first time. My dog, Wilson, was seven weeks old when I got him - he is now almost eight so I guess I did something right 🤪 I work as a registered nurse, so I work three days a week and have the other four days a week to play with your pups! If you have any questions regarding my availability, please reach out to me! I will follow all house rules and rules regarding your pets. Having used Rover for my own dog, I know how important it is to know and trust the sitter that you are allowing into your home to watch your sweet babies. I hope that we can establish a relationship where I can be that for you!
About: I've had pets my entire life. I currently have a 12 year old Cocker Spaniel named Sophie. She is getting on in years and requires a little extra care. I am able to care for older pets that may require extra TLC as well as younger pets. I would love to care for your babies! I currently work three days a week, so Saturday through Wednesdays are best for me. I will try to work with you on the other days if needed! I have a fenced in backyard and a sweet girl to keep your pet company. I can crate your pet if needed. I am also available to sit with your pet and go for walks.
About: While every pet sitter is great and have great qualities, there is something that set each of us apart but also make us very alike. We all have a love for animals. What is unique about me, is that this is my personal opportunity to be around more animals than I myself can have. It is my pleasure to keep your beloved pets safe and happy. This is a part of me that I want to embrace in life. There’s no bad dogs in my book! I can be very attentive to your dog’s needs, whether they need more exercise or if they’re in need of a potty break. I have loved dogs all my life so you can be sure your dog is in great hands! I recently moved here from Gulfport and I am seeking to continue dog sitting as I did before. I look forward to meeting new faces. I can care for your pets in my home by giving them attention and love. They will be able to freely roam the house and the yard when leashed. I also offer free baths if you’d like for your pup to go home smelling fresh! 🚿 I work part time elsewhere until I can make this full time. Some weekends I’m busy with family, but when I have nothing going on I’m able to provide pet care. I have a two dogs of my own that will get to spend time with your pups. I have a great amount of outdoor space for them to run around and play. When they’re inside I keep them company and make sure I’m watching what they do. They also get plenty of cuddles from me and my husband. I also watch that both your pups and my own are playing nice and aren’t getting too rough with each other. As for care in your home, I make sure everything is left where it was last seen so nothing is missed. I make sure their area is left clean before leaving and nothing they shouldn’t have is around.
About: Hi!! I have had animals my WHOLE life, grew up on a farm so I’ve always been around animals. I have a cat that’s declawed and two kiddos in my home that love meeting new friends. I work from home and would love to help others by dog sitting and/or walking. I’m able to take the dogs out first thing in the morning, lunch time, and 2x in the evenings. I do have a fenced yard for the zoomies and a neighborhood with a sidewalk for walks. I look forward to getting to know your family pets and working together :) I take bookings only when I know I will have plenty of time during your pets stay to be sure they’re being walked and supervised while running around the yard. I have a fenced in yard for letting your pets outside and a crate, if your pet is crate trained. I am happy to follow any special instructions that you may have for your pets.
About: Worry free loving c💗re is my priority! I understand the stress of leaving my baby with a stranger but I aim to make it easier for you both! I have been told I look like the Noah’s Ark because all the animals come running to me. My friend thinks it’s because they can tell I have a good soul. I will continue any training that is already in motion and I am use to preparing meals and snacks all day long! I will do whatever it takes to make sure you and your loved one are Happy and Worry FREE! I’m currently only focusing on your pet care needs so I’m available anytime if my calendar says so even last minute plans I am available. My house is not set up yet for more animals like I wish was. I would have a zoo if I could! So, I would be coming to your lovely home to make it more comfortable for your babies. It does help them not stress out and cry as much!
About: I worked with dogs for nearly 15 years professionally as a Certified Dog Trainer, and have since continued a small business in the pet industry since 2012. I have a lifetime of experience with most animals; but specialize and have a fondness for dogs & horses of all sizes! All my customers will receive pictures of their pets (upon request) from me while they are on vacation! I currently work at home and am able to fit a limited number of local visits early - midday - and in the evenings. Weekend availability as well. I have loved animals all my life. After over a decade of training pups, I created my own All Natural Dog Treat Company, Derbys Delights All Natural Dog Treats. Named after my own heart-dog, Derby. This has been a very rewarding business for me and continues to allow me to working in the pet industry as much as I can. I now work from home, and am able to add sitting / walking to my spare time. In addition to in home pet sitting and walks, I am available for horse sitting in the Cape May County area as well. I have a lifetime of experience with horses and would love the opportunity to speak with you about your needs for all your best friends!

They kept in touch throughout the entire week, which was reassuring and gave me peace of mind while I was away on vacation. This was my first time using Rover and leaving my elderly fur baby with anyone new, and I truly felt safe knowing he was in their care. I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave Leo and he got to socialize with the kids and pups 🥰🐾”

Kona enjoys rolling around with Christine and stealing Lola's nap spots. I have no worries when Kona is there and she is always excited to see Ileana. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby! We'll see you soon.”
“Sofia was an absolute godsend. She's incredibly dependable, professional and kind. And it's a bonus that she's a vet tech.

I will 100% user her again.”

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby. Thank you again ..we’ll definitely be booking with you in the future!”

“Terri is absolutely amazing. This was our first time using Rover and we were hesitant with leaving our baby with a stranger but that was quickly resolved after speaking with Terri, who even offered a meet & greet a few days prior to the booking. She is very quick and responsive to our questions and sent pictures and videos of our frenchie enjoying his time with her. She also has a pup named Zeus who is the chillest and sweetest dog ever. We will definitely be rebooking with her.”
“Penny spent a week with Lindsey and her pack and she seemed to be very happy and content with her stay. Lindsey provided updates every morning and evening, letting me know that Penny had eaten her food and what she had done for the day. She also included pictures in which I could tell Penny was having fun. During her visit it was July 4 and Penny is extremely scared of fireworks. Lindsey made a safe space for Penny and checked on her consistently. I feel that Penny was in good hands with Lindsey and her family. I would not hesitate to leave Penny with Lindsay again!”
