About: Growing up, our neighbors on our street all had animals that they would trust my family with taking care of while they were gone. Being older now, I still have the same love of taking care of animals whether it is my own dog and cat or other people’s! I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy look after such an important part of your family and would love to be that person!! I’m a teacher so I get off work fairly early and have weekends off to help others who need it! Whether that is letting them out, taking them for a walk or feedings! I know animals prefer their own environment and would love to create a safe and trusting experience for them right inside your home to make them as comfortable as possible!

About: I am a graduate of UAB and am currently attending Auburn University as part of UAB’s Rural Medicine Program. I will start medical school at UAB next fall. I’ve been around dogs for 18 years, including having five dogs of my own which vary in breed and size. My dog, Jax, has been my best friend throughout college and goes everywhere with me! I have extensive personal experience working with dogs that require special care, such as medications and food restrictions. Additionally, I have experience with reactive and aggressive dogs. I understand every dog has certain needs or wants to be happy, mentally and physically. I don’t believe in bad dogs! Every dog has their own personality and traits that make them special, and I am dedicated to learning the best way to handle and communicate with every dog I encounter to ensure an effective relationship. I look forward to talking with you and meeting your precious pups in the future! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I have classes every weekday morning until around 11-12:30, depending on the day. I have one class for two hours on Monday evenings. I do occasionally travel to visit family on weekends. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to play. There is shade, water, and the gates are reinforced to prevent runaways! Additionally, the house has additional space for a dog to hang out and avoid interaction, if they desire.
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 personally cared for four dogs and a rabbit, giving me a deep understanding of daily pet care, responsibility, and animal behavior. In addition to personal experience, I worked as a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital and shelter throughout my senior year of high school and during my freshman and sophomore years of college. In this role, I assisted with patient care, monitored animals, maintained clean and safe environments, and supported veterinarians and staff with daily operations. I also volunteer at a horse ranch during my free time, where I assist with animal care and ranch responsibilities. My background has allowed me to become comfortable working with animals of all sizes and temperaments while developing strong compassion, communication, and caregiving skills. currently work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate plenty of time to animal care and attention throughout the day. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine, and I enjoy maintaining a structured schedule to ensure animals receive consistent care, exercise, and companionship. 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.

“Abby was working with us pre-COVID lockdown and was super professional, on time, and very attentive. Once our entire family went to work and learn from home, we cancelled services with Abby. Fast forward 9 months and we were hoping to get away for a last minute ski trip on New Year’s Day, but didn’t want to leave the dogs crated for so long, so I reached back out to Abby and with less than 24 hours notice, she made herself available to take care of the pups. She stopped by twice and gave us great updates while we were on the mountain. We couldn’t be more pleased with Abby. Highly recommend!!”


About: I’ve grown up with two dogs and have lived with both a small and a big dog. I’ve dog sat for my neighbors growing up. I’ve watch all kinds of dogs and have no problems with watching more than one dog in a household. I also have experience with both young and old dogs, so I know the different attentions each type needs. I am currently taking a summer class at Auburn University and I would love to spend my time watching a dog when not in my class. Over the summer I will be in Auburn taking one class at 8am on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Outside of that I will be free to watch dogs. I’ve had two dogs growing up, one was always super active and loved walks the other loved belly rubs and staying in doors. I’m good with either type of dog. I’ve also dog sat for many different breeds of dogs so I’m good with all types.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life — all 24 years of it. From the moment I was old enough to pick up a food bowl, I was right there helping to care for them. That means over two decades of feeding, walking, playing, and loving dogs of all shapes and sizes. For me, caring for dogs isn’t just a job — it’s second nature. During the day I work, but I have the flexibility to step away and check in on any pets in my care. Evenings are generally when I’m most available, so your pet will have plenty of attention and company after hours. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own family dog. Your pet won’t just be looked after — they’ll be loved, spoiled, and made to feel right at home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
