House Sitting Alliance

“Skylar took such wonderful care of Billie while I was away. From the updates and photos to the genuine care and attention, I could tell my dog was in great hands. She went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, and I came home to a happy, relaxed dog as well as a tidy house! I highly recommend Skylar to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much!!”

“Chelsea did such an amazing job watching my cat! She kept me updated throughout the day and really made me feel comfortable being away! Can’t thank her enough!”

About: I grew up on a farm so I’ve been around animals all my life. Family and friends have trusted me for all of their pet-sitting needs for years. I currently have two dogs. I’ve dog sat dogs of all ages in my home and in the owners’ homes. Last fall, I witnessed a man dumping two dogs near my home. One of them was pregnant. We were able to raise the puppies and give them and the mom to loving homes. We kept the other dog and now her and the chiweenie that we already owned are best friends. I also have experience with special needs dogs. My chiweenie recently lost his left eye after another dog jumped on him. I've learned to be patient with him as he regains confidence and navigates everyday life with one eye. I am a full-time student at college. I do not have a job but I am looking for a part-time gig to do along with pet care. My classes aren't all day so I would be able to care for pets in the morning and as needed in the later afternoon/night. In the client’s home, I can feed, water, play with and follow whatever specific instructions I’m given. I can walk your dog on a leash and make sure they always have water.

About: I've taken care of dogs, horses, and cattle since I was very little! I am currently in vet school learning how to take care of them even more I am currently in vet school, so my time is unfortunately limited, I would be able to walk and tend to your pet after my class hours! My plan is to be able to tend to your pet at your home! This will allow me to go and walk them around and feed/water them as needed

About: “I’,ve taken care of families pets and animals on my parents farm I also own 25 pets at my parents farm and I love taking care of all animals even potty training for puppies I work from home and have a lot of free time on my hands so I believe pet sitting would be a good opportunity to help other , pet owners and become a good part of my weekly routine. The way I care for pets under my care is paying full attention to them in my environment an providing pictures and videos every few hours to clients to know there pet is in good care.

“Lily was amazing! Super caring and an amazing communicator. Charlie felt so comfortable with and had an amazing time”

“Caylee did an awesome job taking care of our dog! She sent me updates, with pictures, everyday. When we arrived home my house was clean, tidy, and our dog was very happy. I would definitely recommend Caylee to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for 10 years! They are two beautiful golden doodles. I also help out a ton with family members pets and friends pets. I babysit for kids every single week for the past three years so I am constantly being responsible. Since I'm a college student with a super flexible schedule this year, I am pretty much free all day! I have tons of free time between classes and on weekends, so I can easily adjust to the routine your pet already has. Whether your dog needs a mid day walk, a morning check in, or full weekend boarding, I'm around and love having the company while I do my homework! Your pet’s safety is my number one priority. I'm very responsible and keep my eyes on them at all times, especially when we go outside. I will carefully follow all of your rules for feeding times, portion sizes, and routines so they stay happy and healthy. I promise to treat your dog like they're my absolute own!!

About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals. I am a recent Auburn grad and do not currently have a full time job. Not many jobs offer me a flexible schedule like this does and I am trying to save money and keep my self busy post-grad. I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.

“Sierra did a great job taking care of my 2 dogs! They were happy and healthy when we returned home.”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing! Our daughter went into labor unexpectedly early, and we needed someone to care for our three dogs on very short notice. Ashley responded to our same-day request and, within just a couple of hours, was at our home and ready to help. She stayed with our three dogs for several days, giving us complete peace of mind so we could focus on being with our daughter and enjoying the arrival of our new grandchild. Her responsiveness, flexibility, and genuine care for our dogs meant so much to our family. We could not have asked for a better pet sitter. Ashley went above and beyond when we needed her most, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and caring. Five stars all the way!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have pet-sit on occasion. I have also been around cats for a while and have one of my own. I love all dogs and cats and enjoy getting to know each pets unique personality. I’m currently in school full time but am usually done with my day by 3pm. I love to go outside so a walk is always in the schedule. I have empty weekends most of the time. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my kitten. I have plenty of sidewalk and parks near me to take a dog or cat on a walk. There’s plenty of space if your pet needs personal space and plenty if they love other animals.

About: I’m a biology Ph.D. student with a strong background in animal behavior, so pet care is something I take seriously beyond just “I like animals.” I’ve worked with and studied animal behavior across different species, including birds, fish, reptiles, ferrets, cats, dogs, and other small animals. Because of that, I’m comfortable reading body language, stress signals, fear responses, curiosity, overexcitement, and the difference between an animal needing attention versus needing space. What sets me apart is that I do not treat every pet the same. A nervous cat, an energetic dog, a shy lizard, a curious ferret, and a bird that is easily startled all need different handling. I pay close attention to each animal’s normal routine, personality, and comfort level. I move calmly, avoid forcing interaction, and try to earn trust instead of assuming it. I’ve had my own pets and grew up around family pets, especially cats, and I’m also comfortable with less “typical” animals like ferrets, birds, reptiles, and small mammals. I know that some pets are easy right away, while others take time, patience, and consistency. I actually enjoy working with the ones that need a little extra understanding. I’m careful with the basics: food, fresh water, litter boxes, walks, enclosures, doors, gates, leashes, temperature needs, and owner instructions. I’m also very comfortable giving updates, noticing behavior changes, and communicating if something seems off. My goal is to keep your pet safe, calm, and cared for in a way that matches their normal life as much as possible. My schedule is flexible, especially with advance notice. As a student, I’m used to balancing responsibilities and planning ahead, so pet care fits well into my routine. For drop-in visits, walks, or sitting, I like to know the pet’s normal schedule so I can keep things as familiar as possible. I’m happy to work around feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication instructions if clearly explained, and any specific routine your pet is used to. Safety is the main thing I focus on. I’m careful with doors, gates, crates, leashes, food instructions, and anything a pet could get into while their owner is away. I do not assume every animal wants the same type of attention, so I move calmly and let them warm up at their own pace. In a client’s home, I follow instructions closely and try to leave things exactly how I found them. I’m respectful of the home, the pet’s routine, and any boundaries the owner sets. If something seems off, like a pet not eating, acting unusually stressed, or having an accident, I would rather communicate than ignore it.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 6 and owned 4 Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to pet sit for them throughout high school. I used to only be a dog-person but recently became a cat-person as well, adopting my new kitten named Milo. I'm currently a full-time engineering student at Auburn University but have availability in the mornings and nights on Monday and Friday and available all day on Saturday and Sunday. I live in a studio apartment near Auburn University's campus. I live with just my kitten, Milo, but can come to your house to pet sit. I would be able to take dogs on walks whether they stay at my place or I come to you.

“Rachel is an awesome dog/house sitter!! She has great experience with animals and when we were gone for 10 days, it was evident she took the time to get to know our two King Charles spaniels. One of them was feeling sick, and she knew right away what to do and took them to the vet & kept us updated. All is now well. She proactively provided daily updates, pictures, picked up out mail and even left the house spotless. She is the best dog sitter we have had! We will definitely be hiring her again and trust her with our home and pups! Thank you.”

“Alexander and Diane were wonderful and very attentive to our cats needs and treating him as their own. We were very happy with their communication and flexibility, especially on such short notice. They were very responsible house-sitting and left our home clean. Could not recommend them enough!”

About: Hi!! Lily here!! I am a full time teacher looking for a part-time adventure with your pet!! I have been a proud cat mama for 5 years now, having grown up with both dogs and cats. As a pet parent, I know your trust is precious. I have been entrusted over the years with many of my loved ones’ family members, including kittens, senior dogs, excitable puppies! I have experience with various levels of training as well. I know one of the most important ways to protect your pets’ peace is to introduce as little change and upset to their routine as possible while you’re away. That’s why I’m here to learn their norm and deliver it!! As for your peace, I am open to as much communication about your little one as you’d like for your reassurance- expect all the cute pet pics your heart desires!! I am a full time teacher, so my availability for house sitting is limited to the weekends but drop-in visits and walks are much more open. I’d love to be able to build a relationship with your pet over time, so reoccurring scheduling is available! Typically, I am free after 5pm until 10pm on weekdays and open on the weekend (until 10pm Sunday depending on commute). I will not be offering in-home services for the safety and benefit of your animals and mine. My bonded pair of mother and son cats are not interested in friends, sadly! So, the ball is in your court for care!! Whatever your animal’s normal is, I aim to deliver. Please give me detailed instructions upfront and be patient with any questions while I try to maintain your pet’s routine.

About: Hey thank you for taking the time to view my profile, here's a little information about me: Currently I am enrolled in college majoring as a veterinarian technician. My goal is to succeed in helping and caring for as many animals as I can. As someone who has had extremely close bonds with every pet I've ever had in my life, I can also proudly say that they are not just animals. Our pets are like family. Animals are incrediblly smart and in a way are like humans. They deserve to be treated with love, gentleness and fully cared for. I can be reached at any convenience. I’m currently taking classes online therefore leaving me with more free time to help of those families in need of the extra hands. For pets staying with me I have an yard that leads into a 3 mile path that wraps around a lake which is perfect for pets that need to stretch their legs. But also in a pet owners home I am clean, responsible and worried about the pets safety at all times. I'm currently a stay at home mom, with plenty of free time during my schedule. I'm available Monday-Sunday, at all times. Please give me at most an hour to respond to requests during the day. And if reaching out overnight please allow a few hours for a response. Thank you! All pets will be have my full attention, and you will constantly be updated with plenty of pictures and info during their stay. I also highly recommend bringing a crate, or dog bed during your pets visit, so they have a spot that's dedicated to having their own space.

About: My sister and I raised a litter of kittens when we were younger. I learned all about responsibility and how to handle animals early on. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available on most days of the week and weekends. I am great with routines, cleanliness, and playtime. If you have any requests and details, like food and litter box specifics, toys, and schedules, I will gladly take notes.
