About: I have cared for dogs in my neighborhood for seven years. I have done day visits as well as overnight visits. Additionally, I have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors. I am more than ready to take care of and love your pups! I am currently a college student at The University of Alabama. On the weekends, I am available at any time. During the weekdays, I am only unavailable from 8am-1pm but can do check ins between classes! I will make frequent visits to visit your dogs throughout the day (and night if necessary). During this time, I will ensure that all necessities are met such as feedings, meds, potty time, and playtime. Additionally, I am more than willing to stay overnight to ensure that the dog has the best care possible.
“I needed a dog sitter last minute while I was away and Tia was able to care for my 3 dogs on short notice. She kept me informed on her visits with my babies and sent photos of them. It gave me a peace of mind knowing they were in good hands.”
“Brittany was AWESOME, and my furry friend, Hugo, loved her! It was easy to work with Brittany, she was attentive to my and Hugo's needs, and communication was a breeze with her. I recommend Brittany, and I am thankful for her help :-)”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better Rover for my girl Mindil. I have peace of mind every day that Mindil gets the love and care I would give her, while I’m away at work. Christina is super responsive and helpful and leaves the best cards for me to view after each visit. We got very lucky to have found her.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for pups of all sizes and personalities for years, and I currently have a happy, energetic 1-year-old chocolate Lab of my own. I treat every dog like family—making sure they’re safe, happy, and well-loved while you’re away. I am currently working from home so my availability is very open. I am able to move some things around for work if I need to. I have two dogs in my home, one is a very sweet loving older dog and the other is my 1 year old chocolate lab. I have a 6 foot tall privacy fence around my big back yard so they have plenty of room to play and wonder. I still take the old man on walks, they’re just not as long these days. For my puppy, he is very high energy so long walks, lots of play time, and puppy pool time are a must! Depending on your home/routine is how I would care for your pet!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, turtles, backyard chickens, turkeys, and goats, and I'm ready to take care of any and all other animals and reptiles you might have; plus, if you want plants watered, I do that, too! I have three giant dogs at home, a cat pulled in from the wild, my own chicken flock, and a turtle (not to mention the feral cats we feed), so I'm used to big personalities and a lot of work each day. I do have a part-time job, but that's only on Mon/Wed, and I leave for long lunches to take care of animals, check outdoor waters, give a little exercise, etc. I try not to crate unless the owner has requested it and then only if I'm at work; I don't mind animals on furniture or the bed with me, but I always ask the owners in case the pets are trying to be sneaky when they're not allowed! I make sure the food and water bowls stay clean (please let me know if there's a specific sponge you use for pet bowls!) and I make sure to play with the animals at least twice a day until they start to get tired. For outside animals, I keep a watch on their water and food and clean their coops/runs/etc., and in hot seasons I like to mist them with cool water from a hose, just in case.
About: Very experienced 20 plus years dog owner and dog lover! We bread our KCC and now have 2 beautiful small gentle dogs. Your pet is welcome in our home. Or I can visit them in yours. I have two children age 9 and 13 who have had dogs all their lives. Love all dogs and are very good at caring and playing with them! I am a stay at home mum. Originally from Ireland and live in Wildewoods. I have flexibility to cater for your Dogs needs. Communication will be first class to reassure you on your time apart. Large home. My two small dogs will offer company or indeed I can visit your home if your dog prefers solo walks and to stay in familiar surroundings. We have a fenced back garden and live in a quiet neighbourhood.
About: My dad was an animal whisperer, and his passion was gifted to me. Growing up with and being educated on many animals contributed to my ability to connect with and care for them. Family, friends and neighbors knew this and entrusted me to watch over their furry friends during vacations, work shifts and late nights out. My experience includes cleaning and refilling food/water bowls and litter boxes, dog walking and other forms of outdoor activity, and some medicine administration (mainly for cats). One of the best parts of being an adult living on my own terms means I can work the hours I want! This means my schedule is open and flexible mornings, days and nights. I will ensure your pets have a clean environment with all of the essentials like food, water and indoor or outdoor entertainment! Even our furry friends get bored.

Wilderness pet parents share their Rover experiences
As many pet owners - we were a little apprehensive to leave our two "big furry children" with someone they weren't familiar with. Not only for our dogs sake but...well two big german shepherds can be a little intimidating to some folks. Megan did a wonderful job introducing herself and from then on - Rosie and Roscoe welcomed every moment she gave them. Megan sent twice daily "report cards" and kept us well informed. Our dogs weren't lacking for anything on our return. We really appreciate being able to leave home knowing our "children" are being well cared for. Thanks soo much Megan!
