1. Catherine U.


“Catherine did an incredible job caring for our dog and two cats. She managed our dog's routines (including medications, walks, and food) beautifully and sent pictures regularly so we knew what they were up to. Our dog got lots of time outside and seemed totally content upon our return. Even our shy cat warmed up to her after a few days. Catherine was great at communicating if questions came up, and we felt very comfortable having her care for our pets. We would absolutely book her again!”


2. Allison W.

“Virginia is a caring and incredibly responsible caregiver of animals. She pays attention to them and understands what they need.

9. Allison T.

“Our dogs get very stressed whenever we go away for a few days - but it was so amazing to go away, not have to worry about them (or our house), and come home to relaxed pups! They definitely enjoyed their time with Allison and we’re thankful for her giving our dogs the attention they needed!”

12. Kim D.

“Kim is a wonderful cat/house sitter who gave me so much peace of mind while I was away on a work trip. She made sure my cats were fed and gave one of my cats some form of medicine 3x a day. She even brought them treats when she noticed one of mine were running out. The house was clean when I returned and my cats were happy! I received detailed updates when I asked for them and Kim always responded promptly. She was also very clear about the times she would be away from my house, which helped set my expectations. I would book her again!”

16. Hensley H.
About: I have had dogs growing up my whole life so I know how to take care of them. I have helped potty train puppies, walk them, and take care of them over night. I have babysat multiple families who have puppies also so I am very well versed in the world of dog! I am currently a student at Auburn University majoring in Nursing. I am free most afternoons and early morning before 9. I am free most nights of the week and am so excited to be able to take care of your pup! I love playing with pups and taking them for walks so your animals will be taken care of well. I am good with potty training pups also!
