2. Laderius S.
“Meet La’Derius a year ago when he moved to my neighborhood. I have a yorkie terrier and when I needed him to keep Ace for a week while I went to go visit my father. Ace didn’t want to come back home. He is full of energy same as Ace. His 10year old daughter was also great with Ace. I highly recommend La’Derius. Thank you so much.”

“Bethany was wonderful! She made sure my 2 cats were taken care of over the holidays and played with them. I also appreciated her updates and photos! Would definitely rebook.”


4. Sarina M.

“Down to earth & made my animals extremely comfortable with her quickly. She's gone out of her way to keep me informed and make sure I'm not worried about how my baby is doing while I'm out of town. Would definitely be a repeat client. I wish I would have found this service earlier so I could have met her earlier. Loved the check-in pictures it shows how comfortable my animals are around her.”




5. Trinita M.
About: I'm a animal lover. Everyone seems to think I'm in the wrong profession. I been pet sitting for years for free for friends and family and I decided to apply to Rover to get paid for something I enjoy doing. I only work 3 days a week and every 3rd weekend. I plan on doing my pet sitting duties on my days off and maybe on some days I work, depending on the situation. I guarantee your pet would be safe /properly taken care of. We have a Pomeranian name Chaise Alonzo March. That we love dearly. He is 7 years old. I'm more than willing to meet with you about your pet and their needs. I would welcome your babies with arms wide open.

“Faith is such a great sitter! My cat instantly loved her and she is very attentive. She sent several pictures and videos throughout her visits and I look forward to working with her again.”


7. David T.
“David is very responsible and does a wonderful job taking care of our pets. He is very kind and loving with our 2 dogs. One is a maltipoo and the other is an American Bulldog. He is wonderful with both and I trust him completely. He has taken care of our fur babies multiple times and they love him!”


8. Rachel A.

“Last minute booking. Rachel was sweet and responsive, took care of my puppy well and sent cute photos! (And she didn’t say anything about our messy house!) Thanks again!”


9. Bonnie M.
“I have been working for Rover for over 3 years now and love it. I have known my sister Bonnie for much longer. She has had a keen and abiding love and tenderness toward animals since I can remember. I remember as a child she and my Mom cared for animals. Also, Bonnie cared for them before in her home for several individuals and did a great job. I just so happened to go to Alabama one weekend when she was doing so. I can certainly vouch for her and her commitment to taking such good care of these furry friends. She has been a foster caregiver for years and has worked closely with shelters trying to find them loving homes. You could not ask for a better asset for Rover. She will do Rover a great job and you will be glad you made her your choice. I highly recommend her skills, knowledge, and services for your animals.”


10. Leah W.

“Leah did daily drop-ins while I was out of town for the holidays. Leah did everything I asked, and took the initiative to do more to ensure my peace of mind. She came when scheduled and sent a pic each day. I loved seeing how happy my crew was, and knowing they were in good hands allowed me to enjoy our vacation. I highly recommend Leah and will most definitely be using her again in the future. I have four dogs and one cat. Thanks, Leah!”


11. Jamiya H.

“Jamiya took GREAT care of my baby (cat.) She sent lots of pictures and came up with new ways to keep him entertained! I felt completely comfortable with her care and will definitely be booking with her again!!”

About: I’ve had pets and I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I have a German Shepherd, and a Torti Calico cat and adore them! I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own, and make sure they’re safe and happy! I’ve even travelled out of the country as a pet sitter to care for senior dogs and cats. Week days after 11am is the earliest I can drop in for a visit. Weekend availability is open - just let me know what you need! I am not comfortable administering medication to pets, any other requests I can manage! Crating, walking, feeding schedules are all totally fine! You can trust your fur babies are safe with me.

About: I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility in Pelham, AL. I have also worked at a daycare facility in South Carolina and dog sat for many families I met during my time there. I have a miniature dachshund and have had pit-mixes and one English bulldog. I'm experienced and know how to easily handle and deal with any breed of dog so I have no limitations with breeds or size. I love being able to care and love on all dogs so your pup will get all the love and attention they deserve while you're gone! My schedule is flexible and easy to work around with reliable transportation. I am also into photography and could get you some super cute shots of your adorable pup to keep! Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and loving on your pups! My schedule is open for every day!

It’s your home and your dog, I’m just here to help keep a routine!

15. Christopher G.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I have also worked with the local humane society. At the same time, my friends or coworkers go on long trips I sometimes take care of their animals. Being in the military you always want to help out your friends so they can go on work trips and not stress about their pets at home. I work four days a week and am available mostly on weekends but could stop by before and after work. I will be available any day that is needed. I have a fenced-in yard and two labs who love to play with others. I also have an extra kennel if that would work best.


16. Brittany S.

“Brittany was fantastic. We were on a cruise for a week and worried about not being in good contact, but she was great communicating with us and sending pics throughout the week to let us know the cats were doing well!”


17. Tatum M.
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals entirely on my own since I was around seven years old. I’ve fed, walked, played with and bathed dogs. I’ve taken care of cats in much the same way, including tricking them into taking flea medication. I’ve also cared for a host of reptiles from turtles to lizards to snakes. I am currently a full time student. My schedule isn’t the most open but I will dedicate whatever time I can to your furry family members! In my home I am gentle but firm with my young cats, I can say I am much the same with dogs I’ve had or cared for as well and other animals. I exercise patience and understanding in getting them anything they need.

Offer the animal love and company when their owner isn’t able to be there.
