“Allison took a great care of my 3 cats, while I was on a long vacation overseas. I came home to healthy and happy cats. She feed them well, had a lot play time, and cleaned their litter box. She is a very responsible and trusted person. I would highly recommend Allison as a pet sitter!”

“I do not work close to my house so after adopting 2 dogs, which are still in the puppy phase. I was looking for someone responsible and flexible to come by during the day to let them out of their crate, spend time with them letting them run & play, and just love on them. Carson has been great and exceeded my expectations. She is responsible, communicative, and keeps me updated. She sends pictures of them and how they are that day. It’s been good for me to not have to worry about someone showing up or not.”

About: Hi! I’m Sara and have been taking care of animals since I was in high school. I have accumulated some awesome references through the years and would love to add you and your pet to the list! I had taken quite the hiatus from Rover while finishing up school and landing my first professional job, but would love to pick this back up again. I graduated from UAB and work in digital marketing. I work from home so I get to spend plenty of time with my dog mix Libby. We live in Bluff Park, so are surrounded by great walking trails. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals and love getting the chance to spend time with all different kinds. Libby loves having new friends come visit. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions at all. I work from home which allows me to spend all day with your pet. If I have to run out for an errand, chances are my husband Nicolas will be home given his flexible work schedule. We live in a very safe community with plenty of walking trails to take advantage of. I also have a 6 year old lab mix Libby that would love to keep your fur baby company.
About: I’ve been around and loved dogs quite literally all 27 years of my life. From a teacup Chihuahua to a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix, I have owned and loved dogs of all shapes and sizes. I truly believe they are man’s best friend and should be treated as such! My living situation does not allow for pets at this time, so I am happy to interact with pets as much as I can. I’m currently working full time in church ministry, which allows much flexibility during the week days. I am fairly open on all days of the week except for Tuesdays. I also am happy to dog sit in the client’s home on weekends and during the week as needed. For all services, whether walks or overnight stays, I would be happy to provide the client with as many updates as they would like throughout the service, as well as send picture updates! I am happy to do whatever makes the client feel most at ease and comfortable.

Katharine has been my saving grace since getting my Benny boy. Her love and care for my puppy doesn’t go unnoticed. She is the most reliable help I have found so far, and I plan to keep her around for as long as she will let me. My Benny loves her and so do I! Thank you Katharine for all you do for us, and I absolutely recommend using her for your doggy needs! ❤️

Meredith was wonderful! We traveled from Iowa and feel very fortunate she was available. She provided a thoughtful update after each visit, including pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. She is kind, attentive, and truly caring—our dogs absolutely loved her. I highly recommend her!

Melodie was amazing with my dog!! My dog was being difficult in typical husky fashion and Melodie handled it perfectly!! She was right on time and she even stayed longer then the booked time to try to get my difficult dog back in his crate😆. I would recommend her to anyone!

I can’t say enough good things about our Anay! She is absolutely amazing with Zeus — attentive, caring, and genuinely loves spending time with him. From the moment she met him, he felt comfortable and safe in her presence. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy, well-exercised, and cared for like he’s her own. Zeus absolutely adores her, and I have total peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and loving with dogs, she’s the one. Highly recommended!
