“Kaia & Desean were awesome hosts for my 12-year old German Shorthaired Pointer. I received many updates and photos over the course of my dog's 8-day stay. I could tell my dog was coming back a happy girl! Thank you Kaia and Desean for making this experience so simple and friendly! I will definitely be re-booking in the near future!”
“Katie did such a great job watching Ellie while we were away. She was very considerate about making sure she had all the information about Ellie to make her stay as comfortable as possible. She also sent some many great pictures/videos and updates to put us at ease that she was being well taken care of.”
“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!”
“Booking with Ryan was great. He sent loads of pictures of my dog Murray enjoying his stay. Murray is tuckered out from all the fun and walks, which really puts me at ease that he was comfortable staying with Ryan. Cannot recommend him enough.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Autumn was AMAZING!! She is so flexible whenever I needed to leave my dog a little longer. I so enjoyed the frequent pictures and videos. She is great and your dog would be in great hands!!”
About: I'm an Animal Sciences graduate and incoming Auburn veterinary student with experience caring for a wide variety of animals. My background includes working as a veterinary assistant and kennel technician, fostering cats, volunteering with animal rescues, and more. Through these experiences, I've gained skills in administering medications, caring for senior pets, recognizing signs of illness, and providing compassionate, individualized care. I am comfortable caring for animals with a wide range of personalities, medical needs, and activity levels, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. Caring for animals has been a regular part of my life for years through fostering, veterinary medicine, volunteer work, and my own pets. I am able to incorporate pet care into my daily routine and make sure each pet receives reliable, attentive care, plenty of affection, and any specialized care they may need. Pets in my care are treated like members of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and maintain their normal routines as much as possible. I closely monitor behavior, appetite, and activity levels and am comfortable administering medications if needed. I ensure pets always have access to fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention and affection.
“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.”
“Wow, I would highly recommend Carter J for boarding your beloved pups! For a first time boarder, Carter went above and beyond to send pictures and give me updates. He allowed my homemade food for daily feedings, even though I know this took extra steps. My two pup had plenty of exercise and love. They are home now resting after their adventures! Thank you again, and if ever need a place at Lake Martin for your pets to stay and play please use Carter J.”
About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals. I am a recent Auburn grad and do not currently have a full time job. Not many jobs offer me a flexible schedule like this does and I am trying to save money and keep my self busy post-grad. I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.
“Shaina and her family were amazing! They treated my pup like their own! I would definitely recommend them to any one and I know our pup can’t wait to visit again! Shaina sent wonderful pics and videos and kept us updated about the stay!”
About: I grew up training puppy’s and always having a dog/cat in the home. I am a loving dog sitter and will give your dog the care they need! I am an early riser and love to go on walks so your furry friend will get great exercise!! I like schedules and routines, and my house is always very clean! I do not have any animas so there is no issue worrying if they will get along! I live in an apartment right next to a park!
“Amanda was great! Her house is spacious and cool, her dogs are super sweet and my guy felt right at home! Amanda kept me updated with pictures and texts daily. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy, animal loving dog sitter!”
About: I’ve been around family dogs and cats my whole life, and caring for animals has always brought me joy. In my free time, I’ve fostered puppies and kittens from the local shelter, so I’m very comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. When a pet is entrusted to me, I truly treat them as my own! I want them to feel comfortable and at home even while you’re away. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your pet will get my full attention and 1-on-1 care. I’m also big on communication — I know it could be a little nerve-racking to entrust a pet to a stranger, so I love to send occasional photo and video updates to keep you reassured and in the loop. As a non-student, I’m flexible with scheduling and happy to work with your pet’s usual routine. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet(s)! I work full-time with a one-hour midday break, so I’m able to care for pets in the mornings, during lunch, and in the evenings. I’m also available most weekends and holidays since I live locally and have a flexible schedule. I can care for pets in my home or yours—whatever makes them most comfortable! My home is pet-free and traffic-free, so they will get my full attention. I’m happy to crate dogs if needed or let them roam freely in a calm, safe space. If a pet would be happier at your home, I’m happy to visit for check-ins or overnights, following your pet’s usual routine and preferences. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with a new person, so I can adapt to whatever would make them most comfortable and happy!
About: As a vet student, I am very knowledgeable about animal health and behavior. I will treat your pet as one of my own while you’re away! I am currently on summer break so I’m home 90% of the time. I will make sure your dog is walked at least 3x a day and receives treats! I have a friendly 3 year old cat who loves making new friends. I have a patio where your baby can get sunlight and I can also send you pictures upon your request.
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”

About: I have experience caring for cats through fostering and veterinary medicine. I have cared for cats of all ages and needs, including pregnant cats, newborn kittens, orphaned kittens, senior cats, and sick or recovering cats. I also have experience as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant, which further strengthened my skills in feline handling. Through these experiences, I have become adept in recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and ensuring cats remain comfortable and stress-free. I am comfortable caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, medical needs, and activity levels, and I treat every cat as if they were my own!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive veterinary background and hands-on experience. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for over 8 years, including experience as both a small animal and equine veterinary technician. This gives me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety, as well as the ability to recognize early signs of illness or distress. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. My veterinary experience allows me to provide a higher level of care, peace of mind, and professionalism, ensuring pets are not only loved but also closely monitored for their overall well-being. Pet care fits into my routine in a structured and manageable way. I work a weekly job, but I’m able to plan my schedule so I can consistently meet all pet care needs. On a daily basis, I make time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I adjust my routine as needed to ensure pets receive proper attention and care. Weekly tasks like cleaning, extended exercise, and any special care are also built into my schedule. Overall, pet care fits smoothly into my routine and is something I prioritize alongside my work responsibilities. I provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s specific needs, whether in my home or in a client’s home. Care includes feeding according to instructions, refreshing water, administering basic medications if needed, and maintaining a clean and safe environment. I ensure pets get appropriate exercise, walks, playtime, and mental stimulation, while also giving them affection and companionship. In a client’s home, I respect their routine and home rules, provide updates as requested, and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while their owners are away.
“She was a problem-free sitter for my two cats for 5 weeks, and she took great care of my house. She was easy to communicate with and flexible! I would definitely trust her to stay at my house and watch my animals again.”
“I was out of town for the holidays and needed someone to walk and feed my dog and I’m so glad Alexxia was available. He was nervous but she was patient with him and got him a treat to warm up to her.I would definitely recommended her as a sitter! 🤗”
About: I’ve always loved animals and originally wanted to become a veterinarian growing up. Now, as a pre-nursing student at AU, I still love having the opportunity to care for others — especially animals. I grew up with a childhood dog that I was completely inseparable from. Even when I was little, I helped feed her, walk her, play with her, and even helped with training. Those experiences are a huge part of why I love pet care so much today. My family now has two dogs that we got while I was in high school, and I love visiting them every chance I get. I’m definitely the type of person who immediately gravitates toward the dog at any social gathering. I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors since I was around 10 years old, and even more frequently once I started driving at 16. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that means going on runs with high-energy dogs or taking slower walks and giving extra comfort and attention to more relaxed pets. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and so loved while their owners are away. I also worked on a ranch last summer where I cared for dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, chickens, and ducks, which gave me even more hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals and personalities. Although I didn’t grow up with cats, I’ve done plenty of cat sitting over the years and absolutely love them as well. I know every cat is different, and I’m always patient and attentive to their routines and comfort level. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work a 9–5 job during the week, but I have an hour lunch break that gives me flexibility for walks, check-ins, or midday care. I also usually go on a run in the mornings and take walks after work or after dinner, so I’m very used to staying active and would love bringing a dog along if they enjoy extra exercise. On weekends, I’m available all day and have a much more flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, playtime, or overnight care. I live in a two-level apartment/townhouse with plenty of space for pets to be comfortable and move around. There’s grass right outside for easy bathroom breaks and walks, plus a balcony and a dog park within my apartment complex for extra exercise and playtime. I keep a clean, safe, and calm environment and always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the home and the pet’s routine. I know consistency is important for animals, so I always try to keep them comfortable by following feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions closely.
“Hello Faith, Thank you for your support and care for Beatrice while I was visiting family out of state. I appreciate that you kept me well updated about Beatrice. With her diabetes, she needs insulin injections every day. I found out she had diabetes in January of this year. I was still a bit worried about her. I appreciate you have experience giving insulin and you have a lot of knowledge about animals. Beatrice was relaxed and comfortable with you. Thank you for sending me photos and texts with updates. I would like for you to take care of Beatrice in the future. Thank you so much. Patti”

About: In my opinion, dogs are the purest form of love. I've owned a dog for the past 15 years, and I honestly couldn't imagine my life without her. I spend most of my free time in the yard reading while Ruby explores the fenced-in area. We also enjoy being lazy inside. I do not have kids, so I treat my dog like my child. As a teacher, I’m on summer break from June 2 through July 17! When school is in session, my work day ends around 4 and then I'm free after that. I normally take my dog for a walk before work (between 6:30-7:30) and in the evening anytime between 4:30-9:00. I am available throughout the week and on weekends. I love animals, and I love caring for them. I promise to treat your animal like my own. I am currently on summer break and home every day!! I work full time from 7:30-4:30 every weekday. When I get home from work, my evenings are free and open to providing time for pets. I have a small fenced-in backyard. We live in a townhome that is within a quiet and safe neighborhood. There is a park nearby that is great for walking dogs.
About: Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital, I developed a strong passion for animal care from an early age and gained hands-on experience working with a wide variety of species.

I have four personal dogs and regularly spend time finding new walking trails, parks, and outdoor areas to take my pack on adventures and exercise outings. Staying active with my dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for pets, whether in my own home or in a client’s home. Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital and working as a Veterinary Assistant taught me how to properly handle animals, recognize behavioral changes, and maintain clean, safe, and stress-free environments for pets of all sizes and temperaments.

“This is the right person for your pup — Tori was amazing with Salle. I only needed a sitter for a few hours while I went into the archives for a research trip and she stepped up, was caring, asked the right questions (pre vet student) and fun (throw in a pup cup). Sal didn’t hesitate to hang with her and cried a little when she left- wouldn’t hesitate to leave my dog with her again!”
About: I have been caring for pets my whole life. I've cared for all pets from dogs to reptiles. I have had many puppies and a few senior dogs as well. I am very knowledgeable about dog care. I have been a dog sitter several times for friends and family. My family consists of a dog, a cat, a leopard gecko, and two sweet guinea pigs! I have experience with all kinds of animals, including small animals and reptiles! I am a volunteer with Auburn University's Natural History Museum and handle and care for multiple different species of animals. I am a full-time college student studying wildlife ecology. Most of my classes are online, so my schedule is open most of the time! In my own home, I treat all my animals like they are my biological children (which they are). They are extremely spoiled, and I love them dearly. I would definitely extend this love towards a client's pet because I love animals, no matter the size or species!
About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I've taken care of them when abandoned by the mother, sick, or disabled. I have experience doing basic training.

I love animals so much and I will love yours too! **** I like to send many pictures and updates. Please do not feel obligated to reply to each one.

I have fully fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I have a pug of my own who doesn't mind other animals. I usually keep him in the bedroom for the first couple hours. I have two inside/outside cats who are also very friendly to people and animals. If I am sitting cats and dogs together, I will usually keep the two separate. Cats upstairs and dogs downstairs. Don't worry about attention. There is plenty to go around! If I'm caring for your babies at your house, I will follow the rules you provide.

“Alexis was fantastic! I had something come up on a weekend last minute and not only did she welcome taking care of Delilah but she sent me multiple pictures of her happily cuddling on the couch and playing with her dog, Kong throughout her stay. She was also very flexible with my drop off & pickup times which I really appreciated with my last minute change of plans. Thank you Alexis!!”
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.”

About: Our dogs have always been family and I can't recall any time in my entire life when I haven't had a dog at my side, sometimes two or three. I've had dogs of all sizes and energy levels. The longest boarding was for two months while the pup parent traveled in Asia. I've had dogs on my small ranch in NV and we rode trails together. They moved with me to CO and we enjoyed the mountains and front range together. I drove cross-country many times with my dogs, stayed in hotels and visited friends and family with them. My dogs are always a priority in all we do and I will care for your pups as I do mine. Be assured that I will follow any special instructions you give to provide your pet a safe, happy, stress-free stay. I recently rescued a deaf puppy who was in the middle of the road, and took care of her until a new, loving home was secured. I checked on her later and she is happy with her people and dog family. I am retired and always home. I spend my days gardening, cooking, squirrel and bird-watching, helping at church, and making greeting cards. My two dogs are with me the entire day. We will give your pup lots of company and love. I prefer to sit for one client at a time and max two dogs at a time. I look forward to meeting you and your pups. It's a good day any day that you meet new friends with fur. They bring joy to life. I have a 1/2 acre and a huge fenced yard for play and romping. Your dog will not be put outside for any length of time without my oversight. I am frequently out in the yard, relaxing, weeding, planting and pruning. Safety is number one and focused, pleasant care are my priorities. I want to be sure that the pups have my undivided attention. My two small dogs and I will give your pup lots of company assuring that he or she is acclimated and gets to know us. Our home is comfortable and happy. Does your pup enjoy endless belly rubs? Mine do and I have plenty to share. I prefer to sit for one client and max two dogs at a time. Photos of your pup's day are provided, if requested. I feed my dogs twice a day and give them one treat after their meals. I will feed your dogs at the time of day you prefer. We will only give your pup treats that you provide. I will follow your feeding schedule and administer meds if needed. My early career was 20 years as a hospital clinical laboratory scientist and then as a director. I've medicated my dogs and horses and given shots, so I know all the techniques needed to administer meds for your dog. Be assured, I recognize a dog's body language if in pain, stressed, or sick and will notify you immediately of any serious issues. I will follow your instructions if vet services are needed. My senior dog, Vivvie requires a special diet, so I make homemade dog food, veterinarian approved. No table scraps for her or for dogs in my care.

I have four personal dogs and regularly spend time finding new walking trails, parks, and outdoor areas to take my pack on adventures and exercise outings. Staying active with my dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for pets, whether in my own home or in a client’s home. Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital and working as a Veterinary Assistant taught me how to properly handle animals, recognize behavioral changes, and maintain clean, safe, and stress-free environments for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am very organized and dependable, so I like to keep pets on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I also make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I have four dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, safety, and treating every animal like family. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and exploring new trails and outdoor spaces to keep them active and engaged. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, carefully follow all instructions, and prioritize communication by providing updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they are away.

“Wow, I would highly recommend Carter J for boarding your beloved pups! For a first time boarder, Carter went above and beyond to send pictures and give me updates.

About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals. I am a recent Auburn grad and do not currently have a full time job. Not many jobs offer me a flexible schedule like this does and I am trying to save money and keep my self busy post-grad. I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.

“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
About: Hi there! My name is Natasha and I would love to spoil your dog! From malteses to rottweilers I have had many dogs as a young'un; all with very different personalities. I've dog sat for Rover clients, friends and employers (on farms and in the city). My apartment has been a revolving door for amazing pooches. My dog care style is "play, pass out, repeat". Big or small, I'm very good at tuckering dogs out. I grew up with rottweilers and have a penchant for adorable pitbulls so I do not shy away from large breeds as long as your dog is trained. I took a short break from Rover but I've still been sitting beautiful pups and I look forward to taking care of yours! Two day mininum for new dog sitting cients. I work freelance so I am able to give your pup (s) lot's of love! Occassionally I will have to leave the house for two to four hours at a time so if your pup needs constant hourly care, I may not be the right match. I respect the pet parent's rules. If the dog is not allowed on the couch, they won't be on the couch. If you need the toilet seat down because they like to drink the water, no problem! Dogs need structure and I do not plan on breaking it (unless it's more play on behalf of the parent, of course).
“Stacy watched our dogs while we were passing through town on our way to our next duty station. She and her husband took great care of our pups and treated them like their own. She was responsive to messages and she sent us pictures of our dogs while they were in her I would recommend Stacy for any of your upcoming pet care needs!”
