House Sitting in Alton

“Rachael took excellent care of our fur babies and home! She very attentive to their needs and special feeding requests. I was very impressed with how responsible she was and the level of care she took of our home while staying here. We will absolutely hire her again and would highly recommend!”

Ellison T.

“Emma was so amazing with our babies- she was able to handle giving medications to 2 of our dogs, handled their somewhat complicated feeding schedule, and earned the trust of our nervous boy! We will definitely use her again!!”

Shelby B.

“Robin was a fantastic sitter for our cats. She communicated clearly, sending us daily updates/pics. Three of our four cats required daily medical care for the duration of our trip, and all four cats were in excellent health and very happy upon our return. She followed my (admittedly over-the-top) instructions to a T and went above and beyond with her care of our home. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for future pet sits.”

Elizabeth H.

“Sarah was an excellent house sitter for my four dogs during a last minute weekend trip. She proactively sent pictures and updates and was very responsive. I would definitely recommend Sarah and will request her again in the future!”

Joshua G.

“Very professional and was very pleased with Lydia’s service. She set picture updates throughout our whole time away. Will def recommend her to anyone and will be using her again when we need a sitter!”

Monica R.

“Monique / Daisy is the absolute best sitter our two XL boys have ever had! She left our home in great shape with two extremely happy pups. We are so thankful!”

About: Hi, I’m V! I grew up in a veritable household zoo, with cats, dogs, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and more and have been walking dogs and house-sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a teen. Though I don’t currently have pets of my own, I have several nieces and nephews whom I love like they’re mine! My love of animals led me to working part-time in a busy kennel and doggy day-care during college, where I administered feeding, medical care, and play for up to 60 dogs of various sizes at a time. A fun challenge—but I love to meet animals where they are, get to know their individual personalities, and build trust in their own spaces. I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals of different ages, temperaments, and care needs. I’m excited to meet your furry friends and help where I can! I’ve recently moved from NYC to Birmingham, AL and am working freelance, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to make yours easier! I’m currently offering house-sitting, pet care in clients’ homes, and dog walking. I have a lot of experience housesitting for family and friends, caring for dogs and cats in their own spaces, and keep a clean house.

“Wonderful house sitting experience for my dogs, one with separation anxiety. Thank you, Katelynn!”

Catherine D.

“Jaiydah is extremely communicative and responsive. She sent several photos and sent us an update every day. She was flexible enough to meet our pets’ needs and very dependable. Jaiydah took very good care of our three dogs and we would definitely use her again!”

About: Will take care of any size, age, or breed of dog. Will accommodate any issues such as aggression or disabilities to the best of my ability. I am currently not working at the moment, so I have a very flexible schedule I should easily be able to fit anyone's pups in. I have experience with dogs with aggression and am able to adjust to any sort of special needs your pup may have as I have worked with a variety of dogs in the past.

“So grateful for the care she provided. Penelope had a wonderful time with Emily and her family. She was happy, calm, and clearly loved. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

Gagan B.

“Micaiah did a great job and we will definitely rebook! We liked that she sends pictures of the dogs and keeps us informed throughout the day. If you want peace of mind that your dogs are taken care of then book Micaiah!”

About: I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes from my experience in a vet clinic. I know what to look for when a dog is feeling un well or anxious. I have my own dog that is a cocker spaniel and he lives to play! I currently work at a job where I handle multiple dogs at once and I love it! I go on lots of walks and have a big yard to play! I work a part time job and am in college in town. I Am home most of the day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. Saturdays are my busy days but am still available to board. Mondays, Wednesdays, & Fridays are a little more unpredictable w my schedule but I am home by 5 maybe before. I have a large fenced yard and live across from a large dog friendly park/walking trail. I have a friendly dog to keep your baby company! If your dog is not crate trained it is no problem. And if they are, I have large crates.

About: Hello! My name is Geneviève(“G”)- cat and dog mom to Pita, Vinny, and Lucy! I've been in Los Angeles for a decade working as a musician and exploring. I recently moved to AL! I love hiking, working out, crocheting, and hanging with family. I have a special way with shy temperaments and have experience with all sorts of dogs, from teacup Poms, to Huskies and Great Danes. I look forward to hanging out with your fur babies! ¨̮ I work non-Friday from 9:30 am til about 12:30pm so I am able to walk beforehand or after. As well as house sitting the most time I would be gone is 4 hrs- and can arrange to do a 4 day work week instead of 5 I want to become best friends with every animal I meet. I want your pet to feel comfortable while you're not there with them, and also want you to know they will get the best care and you can enjoy your trip away without worrying. Every animal I meet is different and has different needs (affection/play/space) I make sure to give each one I spend time with what they need.

About: Growing up I had experience with a lot of types of animals, from cats, dogs, sheep, pigs, cows and horses. In my adult life, I have had a lab mix and have had 4 boxers (3 currently still in the home) and a siamese mixed cat. I learned a lot about dog behavior when I got my first boxer through training, and feel like that has helped me with other dogs too. Two of my current boxers are seniors and they take meds so I am familiar with those types of things and my other one is 8 months old so I am currently also in the puppy phases as well. I do have a full-time job. Evenings and weekends are the best time for me on some days. I often work from home later in the week so I can be flexible those days. I am definitely open to chatting about options. I will keep my calendar up to date based on my availability. If your pups are coming to my house, I have a fenced in yard. I do have a pool, but I go outside with all pups for safety reasons. If your dog loves to swim let me know! I also have a quiet neighborhood for a nice leashed walk. I do have a lot of stairs so if you have a senior dog that has mobility issues my house might not be the best option. If they go out on a leash this would be less of an issue b/c I can take them for a walk out front. I crate my puppy when I am gone, and can crate your dog when/if you would like me too. I would like any special instructions about medications/food/behavior etc that are specific to your pets. I would need any specific instructions for your in home stays with your pets.

About: I have cared for my own pets my whole life, cats and dogs (and even reptiles). I have so much love and respect in for them, sometimes more than people. Friends and family have trusted me countless times with the care for their pets. I currently have an open schedule as animals tend to take up a lot of time. With my own pets, they will take up time demanding for food or attention. I make sure to keep all dogs on a harness and leash for their safety, and no animal will ever go without water. I always keep an eye out for the animals that cause trouble.

About: I have had pets all my life. My pets bring me peace and calm (most of the time) and I will give your pets the love and care they deserve. I currently work part-time while caring for my family and woodworking. I love a job that keeps me active while caring for cute pets! I’m available most days as my work schedule is very flexible. I have 1 mini Aussie/border collie, Yuna (rhymes with Tuna), who loves to play with her cat siblings. I have 3 kitties, Milo, Miku, and Momo. I live in a quiet neighborhood away from busy streets and a big backyard.

“Alyssa did an amazing job watching our dogs and our house while we were away this weekend. I never had to worry that my dogs were in good hands. She left the house better than she found it. I will definitely be rebooking with Alyssa and you should too ??”

Rebekah D.

“Meredith was so wonderful during her stay with my dogs. She gave daily updates, was very respectful, and very clearly cares about your pets! I will always reach out to her first when needing help with my babies!”
