“Whitney took great care of my fur baby!! She accepted willow into her home with loving and caring arms. She sent me videos and pictures of her and made sure she was well taken care of. Will definitely keep using Whitney in the future!”
“Talhia kept 3 of our fur babies for 7 days. Our pups were well cared for and loved. She responded to messages very quickly from the beginning. Sent pictures and updates everyday. Enjoyed meeting Talhia and we will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!”
“Our fur-son had a great time with Jennifer! She sent us daily pics & updates on how he was doing! She even took him to the doggy park! We will be leaving him with her again if need someone to watch him.”
“My family and our dog met Jennifer before my dog’s 2 night stay. I was confident that my dog would be well taken care of during my weekend trip. Jennifer also gave me some advice on some things I need to work on with my dog. She has been an only dog, so I was happy that she was able to be around other dogs during her stay. I highly recommend Jennifer. Thank you you for meeting with us before her visit and allowing her into your home.”
“I thank God that I chose Quadricka to book with. She made me feel very at ease about leaving my Bailey with her. She has the most welcoming spirit and her personality certainly matches her bio. Her home is very nice, comfy, and very clean which means a lot. She sent pics of Bailey, kept me updated,and she also was very responsive if I checked on him. He was happy and energetic when I dropped him off and when I picked up him up! She is definitely a 10/10 so book with her today because she is definitely my sitter from now on out.”
“Mallory and her family took great care of my dog, Dottie, over the holidays! I was a little anxious that Dottie would misbehave (she has only been with me a short time and this was her first time staying with a dog sitter). Mallory was great at communicating and great with handling my sweet pup! I was totally reassured that I made the right choice choosing her. I would definitely leave Dottie with her again. I have used a number of different Rover sitters, and Mallory is my favorite!”
About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including a friend’s cat on multiple occasions and a newborn-to-toddler pug throughout high school. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals of all ages and temperaments. As a Division 1 college athlete, I bring discipline, responsibility, and high energy—perfect for keeping up with active pets or providing calm, consistent care for older ones. I’m super flexible this summer and happy to work around your schedule! Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, or overnight care, I’ve got the time and energy to be there. I’m reliable, love animals, and will treat your pet like my own. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I’ll stick to your routine and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m also able to host calm, well-behaved dogs in my home with advance notice. Whether in your space or mine, your pet will receive attentive and responsible care at all times.
“She was great. House was clean, doggie updates were adorable and pups came home happy and bathed. Be really specific on pick up and drop off times well in advance and this is a perfect sitter”
About: Lexie, my own dog, has taught me a lot about patience, routine, and understanding a dog’s needs. Through caring for her and other family dogs and my previous dogs back in the Philippines, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily pet care, playtime, and feeding schedules. I’m very attentive and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy keeping dogs active with playtime, especially games like fetch, providing plenty of cuddle time, and sticking to their routines for feeding, potty breaks, and naps, and making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. Every dog deserves a fun, safe, and caring environment, and I’m dedicated to giving them just that. I’m available to care for pets on weekends, which is when I’m off work and can give full attention to your furry friends. During that time, I can provide playtime, walks, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddles, making sure your dog stays happy and well cared for while you’re away. I create a safe, loving space for every pup at my home. I have a semi-fenced yard where dogs can play under supervision, and I stick to their routines, giving plenty of attention, play, and cuddles so they always feel happy and secure.
“Absolutely amazing!! My baby has real bad separation anxiety and I was nervous to have to board her, but Morgan kept me constantly updated and made my Sophie May as comfortable as possible! I will definitely be booking again next time we go out of town!”
“Thank you for caring for Dante ! He came back home a happy baby ! Amber definitely took good care of him and I couldn’t of been more pleased 😃 definitely will book with her again in the future”

I’m patient, dependable, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality.

We love going on walks and playing in the yard.
“Anna is always wonderful with my Nahla. This is my second time having Nahla board with her. She’s very accommodating and sends updates daily. I love that Nahla enjoys their fenced backyard!! She goes in happily every time seeing Anna!”
About: I’m a long time animal lover. I have been a trusted pet sitter for years through friends and referrals, now I’d like to offer reliable, professional care to my neighbors and community. My schedule is extremely flexible. I can board, I can go to you as needed, I have the time to take your pet out often and make sure they get all the zoomies out before they return home. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive, reliable, and prioritize safety, structure, and clear communication at all times.
“Danielle was in every sense excellent. She was far more capable than myself of watching these guys and was so chilled out during their entire stay as if to say, “don’t worry, i’ve got it.” My guys, Robby and Zoe, would exceedingly recommend that you book her at once. Thank you.”
“Audrey was amazing with my dog Mylo! She stayed with him the whole time and took him for a long walk. I could tell she really took great care of him , he was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’m very grateful for the care she gave to my baby, and I definitely recommend her! 🐶💖”

“Picked up my check-in request on short notice and met up the next day to go over everything and get the key. Was communicative and made sure my 9 month old cat got through the few days I was gone. Stinky Pete approved”
About: I have been a cat lover since the day I could walk. Over my years, I have had the privilege to coexist in the same space with many cats. Although my current orange child threatens to revoke that privilege at least once a week for using her room as my office. I have witnessed the full cycle of life of a cat so I know how to bottle feed and administer medications. I understand keeping bowls clean to prevent cat acne and increase hydration. As well as the importance of keeping a litter box in good conditions to be able to monitor your cats kidney/digestive health, their risk of infection, and the benefit it provides to the human nose.
“Jake took such great care of my pets! He was able to handle my cat, senior dog and our puppies, was such a lifesaver while I was out of town. The pictures he took are so cute too, would definitely recommend Jake watching your pets, he treated them with a lot of care.”
“Landon was amazing with my dog snoopy. He stayed with him the whole time and gave him that last minute playtime/potty break. I’m grateful for the care he gave snoopy and I’ll definitely book again and recommend him. He was the best with my energetic pup.”
“Jennifer watched over my cat for a little over 2 weeks. Every single day we received an update with pictures and videos! I never once worried about the care he received. She was very flexible when our flight got delayed and was able to come an extra night! She even brought my cat a few boxes to play with! Would highly recommend Jennifer!”
“April was great to work with. She reassured us that our cat would be well taken care of while we were out of town, and she sent photos and videos during each visit, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We would absolutely trust her to pet sit again anytime.”
“We booked Annika a second time & as before, she was fabulous in every way! She was very patient with our Senior little man, extremely dependable & sent great updates. We'll be reaching out again!”
About: I have taken care of pets for almost all my life as my family has had multiple pets. I am responsible and Red Cross certified in caretaking. I take two classes during the week but everything else is virtual. I have all the time in the world to give your pet and am also very proficient at training. I will follow all instructions given and am very responsible. I prefer to keep all living areas clean and will ensure the safety of all pets under my care.
“Alex did such a great job watching our two cats while we were out of town! She followed all of our instructions perfectly, provided plenty of pictures and updates, and went above and beyond to make sure our boys were well taken care of! I highly recommend her for anyone needing a sitter!”
“Mallory was so sweet with our cats - she had one of them purring in her arms on her first visit, which never happens that quickly! She was also a trooper when one of our babies was unusually tricky about getting his insulin, and it was clear that she took their care very seriously. She was responsible, communicative, and friendly - and really couldn't have done a better job. Our cats are family members and we have high standards for their care, so that is saying a lot. :) We'd love to have her petsit for us again anytime and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Megan went above and beyond for our family and we felt totally safe and relaxed while we were gone! I would highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a truly caring, thoughtful, intuitive sitter!”
“Abby was absolutely amazing at caring for my kitty, who was recovering from an UTI, over the holiday break. I was gone multiple weeks and she made sure my kitty was well fed, spoiled with catnip, and given love. She also went absolutely above and beyond while maintaining our clean litter box and even vacuumed when my kitty tracked litter out. She sent adorable photos every visit and I truly felt my cat was in great hands. My baby didn't even have a stress UTI when I returned home, which I credit all to Abby dropping in and making my cat feel safe while I was away. I will definitely use her again when I travel and highly recommend her to anyone needing care.”

Working remotely gives me the flexibility to be there for your fur baby all week long. If you've got specific questions or special requests, feel free to reach out. During the weekdays, I can offer plenty of attention, play sessions, and walks to keep your pet active and engaged. I love having dogs around to go on a walk during my breaks! I’ve built a strong reputation over the years for being reliable and responsible.

“Brie was excellent with Harley! She kept everything clean, made sure Harley used the bathroom, and played and got Harley’s energy out. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter! Can’t wait to book with her again!”

“Tahlia was fantastic, very responsive answering messages and provided lots of pictures and videos of my sweet Bleuy! This was my first time using a sitter and Tahlia has set the bar very high! Bleuy had a great time playing with the other doggies during day care and we will definitely be using Tahlia again when we come to town for a long day. Thank you so much for loving on our sweet baby and making her feel like she was at home!”
“Morgan was fantastic! We have a pup who has been dealing with some health issues, and we were nervous to leave her for the day, but Morgan made us feel very comfortable. She sent awesome updates, so we could enjoy our day and know our pup was doing just fine. Would definitely recommend her services!”
“Zoe was a life saver for us! She was able to keep Charlie on short notice and provide great updates and took great care of him. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have many years of experience with dogs and other pets of all kinds. I was a sitter for many local families and their pets were always taken care of and loved. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I always treat every animal like my own. I am a college student completing my work online. I am home full time spend most of my dog spending time with my dog polar. I have a quiet house for dogs who prefer a more peaceful environment but I also have a fenced in park area where I sometimes spend the day at for more high energy pets. The environment is very safe and your pets will be watched and safe at all time.
About: I’m a long time animal lover. I have been a trusted pet sitter for years through friends and referrals, now I’d like to offer reliable, professional care to my neighbors and community. My schedule is extremely flexible. I can board, I can go to you as needed, I have the time to take your pet out often and make sure they get all the zoomies out before they return home. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive, reliable, and prioritize safety, structure, and clear communication at all times.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I regularly pet sat for neighbors, caring for dogs, cats, and even exotic animals, and over time I built a loyal client base in my hometown that turned pet sitting into a consistent job. I have experience with pets of all ages and sizes from training and keeping up with energetic puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. Having had dogs my entire life, including rescues from shelters, I’m very comfortable working with a wide range of personalities and temperaments. I can also administer medications and follow specific care routines, and I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment so pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make it a point to be highly responsive, so owners can count on me to quickly answer any calls or texts and provide updates for peace of mind. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, especially during the summer. As a current senior at UA, I have a very flexible schedule and am looking to pet sit full time, which allows me to be fully available for boarding, walks, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a strict 9–5 schedule, I can give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and be present for their needs at all hours. This flexibility also means I can easily accommodate specific requests from owners and ensure their pets get the time, care, and supervision they deserve. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the service requested, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed, keeping to their usual feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in their familiar space. This includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication or following training guidelines. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything tidy, and provide regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: Hi furbaby parents! 🐕❤️ I know having to get sitter service, drop-in's or walks scheduled for your baby can be stressful nowadays. It's also hard to know who is the best fit, until you try. Life can be busy & demanding at times, & I understand the importance of finding the right one who will take great care of your baby. 🐶♥️ Being raised in the country with several furbabies, of various sizes with my grandma who was also an absolute furbaby-lover! So it just comes natural to me. Bc to me, they are our babies, our children & I have 30+ years experience of caring for them. Like us, they each have their own likes, dislikes, quirks & personalities. I have furkids myself & my house is setup for them- I just do the feeding, loving, treating, playing, replenish supplies & cleaning!🐶🥰 I have furbaby beds in several rooms, gates between doorways so in case someone wants to be alone, I can accommodate, or if your baby needs time to warm up to a new place, thats another reason to have gates, for them to meet & greet at their own pace. I just don't like the idea of having to stay in kennels, like at the vet! I have a whole playroom for furbaby friends with plenty of toys, beds & a fenced in backyard for supervised potty & play! My babies love everyone, but I know not everyone else's pups love the same things. I do understand how important the care for your baby is! Its important for them all feel safe & comfortable. I have kennels if needed, which we rarely use, with a spare room if needed. So if one wants to nap quietly & another wants to run & play, its no problem at all. *I can do boarding in my home, sitter service, stop by for drop-in visit & feed/water, potty & play, or stop by & take them for a walk. I can stop by for kitty care, but cant board Ms/Mr Kitty at my house, sorry. *Ater hours pickup/drop off is no problem. My furkids are neutered/ spayed, fully vaccinated & get monthly heartworm/hookwork flea/tick prevention 💊 Prevention & good health is very important to me, as I would hope yours is taken care of also. They love to play, & get along great with other furbabies! Your baby is in good hands here, & will have plenty of playtime & treats; OR if we just want to nap, we love that too! 😊 ✨️Message me & let me know what days/times you need. Lots of love to go around here. As mentioned, after hours is no problem for me, just let me know the Correct Dates/Times.🥰 ***FIRST TIME CLIENTS: Safety for all in important. Let's set up a quick meet & greet Prior to your baby's stay/care- especially for those "last minute needs"- emergencies happen. That way, I can get better acquainted with your baby & you, and so your baby isn't meeting me as a stranger on our first day of stay. **We will meet in a Public/Safe place. Thanks & hope to see you & your babies soon! 🥰UPDATE: Rover makes 20% of all earnings, I offer discounted or locked in rates for my Repeat clients or Regulars; I even do some private pay clients. I take care of furkids a little more "extra" than many furparents, I've been told! But to me that's a compliment! Bc being furbaby lover, I believe in real loving care, not just meeting basic needs. 🐕 🐈 🦮 🐈⬛️ **[PLEASE READ ALL- Including note under "A Typical Day".] Thanks!🐶❤️ I work locally & have recent changes in my schedule which gives me more availability. I also have my own precious furbabies at home, so it's not a new task. I would manage the same way I do for my own. So let me know what you need & I will get you on my calendar! And Thank you for inquiring with me. And much thanks to my current Regulars & for all the wonderful comments & reviews! I appreciate you all so much & I'm always here, so book early, as I only keep a few babies at a time, for adequate, attentive care! I have a treated fenced in back yard for our Supervised play & potty & security cameras in & outside my home for safety. Update: Please ensure your furbabies are up to date on vaccines. Cameras on and within property for safety. *I thought this should go in the safety area: I'm no stranger to the area. I'm originally from Fayette County. I have family here in Northport, Coker & Tuscaloosa. So, I am a lifelong local to the area, and have a complete background attached to my profile & also have updated Government Clearance. So rest assured, your baby is safe with me.
About: I understand what it means to leave your dog in someone else's care. That’s why your furry friend won’t just be a guest—they’ll be treated like family, with personalized care and lots of love. I currently don’t have pets at home, which allows me to provide exclusive attention to the dogs I care for. My furry family is in Mexico, my home country, and since I travel frequently, I can’t have them with me. This has only strengthened my dedication to care for other people’s pets with love, respect, and responsibility. I mostly work with repeat clients throughout the year. This helps me truly get to know each dog—their routines, their likes and dislikes—and make them feel calm and at home. Even though I’m still learning English, I always find ways to communicate clearly—using tools or translation support when needed. I’m committed to making every family feel heard, safe, and confident. If you're looking for someone to care for your dog as if they were their own—with love, respect, and dedication—I'm here to help! 💕 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I am passionate about their well-being. I plan my days flexibly to meet their needs, ensuring they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and companionship. Additionally, I organize my schedule to provide them with a safe and comfortable environment. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for according to their individual needs. In my clients' homes, I follow their usual routines to minimize stress for the pet, ensuring they receive the attention and companionship they need. Additionally, I maintain constant communication with the owners to give them peace of mind while they are away.
“Ansley and her fur baby, Koda have been amazing! Solo has had a blast 3 different play dates while we’ve been in Tuscaloosa! We received lots of pictures and videos of Solo having a wonderful time! Communication was awesome! We look forward to our next trip to Alabama so Solo can visit his friends again!”

Whether it’s a quick drop in or full-time care, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because I work from home with a very flexible schedule.

Whether it’s a last-minute drop in or a regular walking schedule, I’m here to help you make your life (and your pet’s!) a little easier. Whether I’m caring for your pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel at ease. I don’t have any pets my own, so you’re furry friend gets my full attention and I only occasionally foster, with full transparency. when I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I with my own, following all instructions and routine routines to keep your pet happy and stress-free.
About: I am currently a student at UA and am the proud owner of a dog named Raymond, a sweet boxer/hound mix who is friendly with all other dogs. Having grown up surrounded by both dogs and cats, animals hold a special place in my heart. I am committed to providing open communication, sending regular updates and photos, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away! I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, preferences, and routines, allowing me to provide the best care possible—whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship! I understand that pet owners need to trust the person caring for their loved ones. I have a history of being reliable and punctual, with positive references from clients who can attest to my dedication and integrity. My flexible nature allows me to adapt to different situations and the needs of various pets. Whether it's accommodating last-minute requests or adjusting care routines based on a pet's mood or energy level, I’m always ready to help. In my home, I provide a safe, spacious environment with designated areas for play, rest, and feeding. I ensure all pet-proofing measures are in place and maintain a routine that includes regular exercise, socialization, and mental stimulation through games and training. At a client’s home, I follow their established routines and guidelines closely, ensuring their pet feels comfortable and secure.
“Alysse was very accommodating, communicated consistently, and sent updates with photos. I had a last minute need for my pups to have some supervision and company and she was super understanding. Thanks so much. Would definitely book again :)”
About: I got my first family dog at the age of 12 and he was a 100 pound chocolate Labrador named Max. When I moved to Germany, I was not allowed to take him so he currently lives with my brother. After moving back to the US, I got my own toy poodle at the age of 16 named Eymber and was completely responsible for her. Once I moved to college, I got her a puppy named Koko and they absolutely love eachother. Eymber is now 5 years old and koko is 1. Occasionally, I stop by the Tuscaloosa animal shelter to volunteer and I love being the reason a pup was happy that day. I love my babies and all fur babies more than anything in the world!!💛 I graduated from the University of Alabama in December of 2024. I’m a stay at home wife while my spouse works at the Alberta elementary school of performing arts so I’ll have plenty of time to cafe for your pups. I have a small fenced in backyard and 2 adult toy poodles who are very sweet to everyone. I live in a small neighborhood with tons of space to take walks/runs. I also prefer a gentle approach when correcting behavior and I believe crates should be a safe space rather than punishment.
“Savannah very clearly LOVES dogs and she made sure my fur baby had a blast every time he came for daycare. She was always on time and a great communicator. I can definitely be a helicopter mom at times, but I would trust her with my pup any day! We will definitely be back!”

I will take time to get to know your pet, because they deserve to feel comfortable while their favorite person is away.

About: Hi, I’m Aly! My house was never empty growing up—I was raised in a home full of cats, which taught me how to respect and care for even the pickiest feline personalities. At the same time, I’ve always been the go-to dog walker for my friends and family, and I've recently taken that passion professional. Currently, I’m active on Wag!, where I’ve completed multiple successful walks and have already secured a repeat client who trusts me with their dog’s daily exercise. I’m excited to expand to Rover to offer that same high level of care to both dog and cat owners in the Tuscaloosa area! As a flexible independent worker, my schedule is my own, which means I can easily prioritize your pet’s routine! Whether it’s a mid-day check-in or a last-minute visit, I have the freedom to be there when you can’t. When I’m not hanging out with your pets, you’ll usually find me curled up with a book or learning a new skill. Since I value a calm and relaxed environment, I’m the perfect match for your pet who enjoy a peaceful presence or a quiet companion to sit with them while they nap. I focus on providing personalized care that matches your pet’s unique energy level. Whether I’m visiting for a drop-in or staying overnight, my priority is maintaining the routine that makes them feel safe and happy.
About: I have a dog and 2 cats of my own so I consider myself experienced in pet care. I have dog sat for many years now for both neighbors and family. Since I have owned many cats over the years I also consider myself experienced in cat care. I don’t mind cleaning up after pets and I can give medicine to unwilling pets. I don’t currently have a job so I my schedule is very flexible. I also don’t mind getting up early if necessary for your pet. I have a fenced backyard and my pets are friendly. I can easily crate your pet if that’s what they’re used to. I can also come to your house to take them out and give them plenty of love.
About: I have always loved being around and taking care of animals. I currently have two dogs of my own and am responsible for feeding, grooming, and playing with them. Both of my babies come with their own special needs (one is deaf and the other has seizures) so I am well equipped to deal with any disabilities that may require special attention. I would love the chance to spend time with your babies! I am home from college and am available all day! Would love to spend time with your baby whenever you need someone to watch them! I will love on your baby with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!
About: I have many years of experience with dogs and other pets of all kinds. I was a sitter for many local families and their pets were always taken care of and loved. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I always treat every animal like my own. I am a college student completing my work online. I am home full time spend most of my dog spending time with my dog polar. I have a quiet house for dogs who prefer a more peaceful environment but I also have a fenced in park area where I sometimes spend the day at for more high energy pets. The environment is very safe and your pets will be watched and safe at all time.
About: I am super flexible and comfortable with dog care. I currently have an energetic young german shepherd so I understand the importance of dogs getting lots of exercise so that they can relax throughout the day. The main breeds I have experience with are Labs/Retrievers, German Shepherds, Beagles, Mixed Breed herding dogs, and Horses! I understand when dogs want to play and when they need their own space to relax. I currently have a german shepherd that I exercise twice a day either by walking, hiking, fetching or chasing hose water. Typically, I do one of these activities in the morning and one in the evening. My dog is free fed throughout the day, but I am familiar with dogs that prefer the routine of scheduled feeding or don't have self control, so I am comfortable following the routine that the dog is used to. I have a great walkable neighborhood, but I am very familiar with great places to walk and hike with dogs throughout the city. I am a grad student with lots of flexibility so my schedule is different from week to week, during the summer I will have lots of time each day to spend with your pup, but during the year I will provide excersize but less one-on-one time. I have a fenced in yard and a 1900 square foot home with hard surfaced floors. I don't allow my dogs on furniture, but if your dog is used to it, that is not currently a concern. My fences are sturdy and chain link, and about four feet tall. I prefer dogs that are crate trained overnight, and am happy to provide my own crates for them to sleep in. If they are not, I would happy to set up a play pen environment for them to be in!

“I high recommend Rachel, she was outstanding! She provided great photos and updates while we were out of town and adjusted the walk schedule based on the summer temperatures and our dog ability to walk long distances. She agreed to do a pre-visit to ensure all communication was clear. Her communication was quick and responsive to me each step along the way. We will definitely book her again. Thanks Rachel!!!”
“Tanner is great with our two energetic dogs! He is always kind, on time, and very reliable. I can tell he cares for our dogs by how they act every time they see him, happy and excited!”
About: I’ve watched all sorts of dogs from boxers to frenchies and can walk, feed, give medicine, and stay overnight with them!!! I’m very flexible also!!! I work part-time and I am a student at UA. I have room in my schedule to walk dogs as needed and take care of any animals and stay overnight with them! I have always looked after my own cat with extreme care and have experience taking care of family and friends’ dogs!!! I can do what is needed as long as I am safe!!!😁

I’m currently working part time so have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I love being active and enjoy long walks so dog sitting works perfectly for me!

About: My animal and pet sitting experience is very extensive from having at most 4 dogs in my house growing up and farm sitting, cat/dog/lizard/fish sitting since I was 13. I love all animals and their health, safety, and happiness is my number one priority. Currently I’m a student in Alabama, originally I’m from South Carolina and have done pet sitting there for awhile. Although I do have class Monday-Friday I am available in the afternoons as my classes are all in the morning for the most part. I am also almost always available on the weekends! Personally, I have a female English Pointer mix who is very friendly with other dogs and people… she is easy going to say the least. Depending on your pups and the environment River could possibly be a good playmate if your fur babies are lonely. Safety is number one so I wouldn’t ever do anything without owners permission.
About: Since I was little, I was around animals all the time. My mom‘s cat lady gene was very strong, because I have six very special cats myself: Ruby (an orange tabby with three legs), Freya (a long-haired dilute torbie), Luna (a silly calico), Phoebe (a tortie with white socks), Callisto (a gray teddybear who came to us as a yard stray) and Poe (void cat who was born in our house). Although I do not want the commitment of adding a dog to the mix full-time, I also love taking care and playing with all puppers! I work full-time during the week, but I have a flexible work times. I can schedule walks and check-ups early in the mornings and starting after 5 pm in the afternoon. I am available most weekends, both Saturday and Sunday. I will familiarize myself with your space and where your pets are allowed. It is important to me to understand if your pet will try to test limits and rules with me that might apply in your home. Both cats and dogs react differently to strangers, so it is important for me to not force them to interact if they want their space.

“Talhia kept 3 of our fur babies for 7 days. Our pups were well cared for and loved. She responded to messages very quickly from the beginning. Sent pictures and updates everyday. Enjoyed meeting Talhia and we will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!”
“Mallory and her family took great care of my dog, Dottie, over the holidays! I was a little anxious that Dottie would misbehave (she has only been with me a short time and this was her first time staying with a dog sitter). Mallory was great at communicating and great with handling my sweet pup! I was totally reassured that I made the right choice choosing her. I would definitely leave Dottie with her again. I have used a number of different Rover sitters, and Mallory is my favorite!”
“She was great. House was clean, doggie updates were adorable and pups came home happy and bathed. Be really specific on pick up and drop off times well in advance and this is a perfect sitter”
“Absolutely amazing!! My baby has real bad separation anxiety and I was nervous to have to board her, but Morgan kept me constantly updated and made my Sophie May as comfortable as possible! I will definitely be booking again next time we go out of town!”
“Thank you for caring for Dante ! He came back home a happy baby ! Amber definitely took good care of him and I couldn’t of been more pleased 😃 definitely will book with her again in the future”

My schedule is extremely flexible. I can board, I can go to you as needed, I have the time to take your pet out often and make sure they get all the zoomies out before they return home. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive, reliable, and prioritize safety, structure, and clear communication at all times.
“Danielle was in every sense excellent. She was far more capable than myself of watching these guys and was so chilled out during their entire stay as if to say, “don’t worry, i’ve got it.” My guys, Robby and Zoe, would exceedingly recommend that you book her at once. Thank you.”
“Audrey was amazing with my dog Mylo! She stayed with him the whole time and took him for a long walk. I could tell she really took great care of him , he was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’m very grateful for the care she gave to my baby, and I definitely recommend her! 🐶💖”
About: I have always had a fur baby in my life. My husband and I recently lost both of our dogs and cat. I love walking, playing, snuggling and all other activities with pups. I will work with you on what your needs are for your fur family member while you are away. My ultimate goal is to have my own full time doggie care. I live in a neighborhood that’s great for walking or going to dog park at Sokol Park. I provide pickup and drop-off within a 10 miles. Above all, I will treat your pet like a member of my family & love on them while you’re away. I’m a PreK teacher so I’m free during the summer and most holidays. Even during the school year I am still able to stay at a client’s house if pet can be let alone during the day. My husband works from home so your pet will have someone with them during the day. However, your pet must not be very needy so that it doesn’t interfere with his work. He does take several breaks and your pet will have availability to be outside several times a day. I enjoy sitting outside enjoying the sunshine or going for walks is also fun activities for mine. We keep a large bed for your pet, toys, and a few treats. I love taking “paw” trips to the park or pet store. I am open to most anything your dog(s) needs.
About: Over the past six years, I have provided reliable, dedicated care for dogs of various sizes and needs, including managing multi-day house sittings and extended week-long stays. Most recently, I successfully provided a private, two-week boarding experience for a 50-pound dog, handling all daily feeding, exercise, and companionship routines flawlessly. I am a highly organized, detailed, and punctual person, meaning I prioritize consistency, safety, and communication. Whether your pup needs active playtime, strict medication schedules, or just a comfortable place to lounge, I am motivated to assist and support your family by providing top-tier care. As a dedicated college student, my routine is highly organized and structured, allowing me to easily fit premium pet care into my daily life. I balance my time efficiently and am fully available for overnight boarding on weekends. During weekdays, I have excellent availability to dedicate my afternoons and evenings to your dog, ensuring they receive plenty of focused attention, long walks, and regular potty breaks. Because I maintain a consistent schedule, you can count on me to be exceptionally punctual with feedings, check-ins, and updates. I live full-time in Tuscaloosa with my own friendly, well-behaved mini Bernedoodle, who is almost three years old. He loves company and provides great socialization for guest pets! When hosting dogs in my home, safety is my absolute top priority. I ensure a clean, calm, and secure environment where your pet will be treated like family. I am highly attentive to behavioral cues and comfortable managing medium-to-large breeds. I can easily accommodate crating or specific separation needs if required to keep everyone safe, happy, and relaxed.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I regularly pet sat for neighbors, caring for dogs, cats, and even exotic animals, and over time I built a loyal client base in my hometown that turned pet sitting into a consistent job. I have experience with pets of all ages and sizes from training and keeping up with energetic puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. Having had dogs my entire life, including rescues from shelters, I’m very comfortable working with a wide range of personalities and temperaments. I can also administer medications and follow specific care routines, and I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and loving environment so pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make it a point to be highly responsive, so owners can count on me to quickly answer any calls or texts and provide updates for peace of mind. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, especially during the summer. As a current senior at UA, I have a very flexible schedule and am looking to pet sit full time, which allows me to be fully available for boarding, walks, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a strict 9–5 schedule, I can give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and be present for their needs at all hours. This flexibility also means I can easily accommodate specific requests from owners and ensure their pets get the time, care, and supervision they deserve. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the service requested, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed, keeping to their usual feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions provided. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in their familiar space. This includes feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication or following training guidelines. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything tidy, and provide regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Very nice and accommodating! Very loving with our dogs. She had lots of different kinds of treats. Our dogs have a hard time when we leave them with others. They tend to not eat as much and have a little anxiety. She did so much to make them comfortable and ensure they had fun. She even went as far as to boil them chicken to get them to eat when they weren’t eating much. We would definitely have our dogs stay with her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was around the age of 9. I’ve also been trusted by many family and friends to take care of their pets. I would love to care for your pet like my own! I’m a stay at home mom, so i’m free any day of any week to keep your animals! I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I have a okay sized yard for your pet to run and play, I can create if needed. I’m more than happy to travel to you to care for them!
