“Lauren was amazing. She tired out my baby on his walk, she walked the full time. Showed up on time. Talked with me about concerns I had with walking. We shared stories about our babies. She loved on all of my babies. And she talked to me about how I can do better with my pup with walks and things since he is my first! I will definitely be using her again if she’ll have me and Scout!”


About: My love for animals is immeasurable, from exotic and unique animals to just your regular cat and dog. ever since I was a kid they have always been my passion. I have been taking care of animals for about 10 years now whether that be pet sitting for neighbors or taking care of my own fur family! (There’s a lot) My home is open and welcome to animals of all kinds! And when I come to take care of your precious fur baby your home will be treated like my home and your pets will be treated just like my own! (Lots of love and attention of course) Your pet will look forward to seeing me! I always carry a treat bag 🤭😊 I prefer smaller dogs dug to the fact larger dogs are more difficult for me to control, but I’m open to calmer large dogs that arent too rambunctious. My boyfriend will be accompanying me to meet clients and do in-home caretaking. We are super excited to meet you and your fur baby! ❤️❤️ Pet care is my main job. I take care of animals every single day, that is mostly my own, but it’s a job that comes naturally to me. Me personally when I’m at someone else’s home I’m going to be interacting with your pet the whole time. Talking to them, taking them outside, giving them treats. I treat them just like my own

About: From raising puppies and kittens, to keeping chinchillas and sugar gliders, I have been around all sorts of animals for most of my life. Some required medications and others wanted to be left alone. I'm not shy or timid around any types of pets and I would love to meet yours! I am self employed as a gig worker in the music industry, so I am available anytime while not on the road. My only obligation is making it to the gym most days so other than that, I can be full time focused on your home/pets! Would love to help you keep your pets in their routine, in their home and the environment they're most familiar with. I am able to stop by whenever you need me, crash on your couch while you're away, or even stay in my campervan in your driveway! I'm reliable, trustworthy, and aim to provide you with peace of mind.

“So glad we found Traci to take care of our new puppy, Camp. She gives Camp all the attention he needs until we can get back from work. Traci is excellent at communication and has a genuine love for animals. I know when I leave Camp with Traci he will be taken care of.”


About: For as long as I can remember, I’ve been taking care of animals. Growing up I had, of course, dogs but also cats, rabbits, birds, and even a chinchilla! I moved to a farm as a teenager where I was kept busy taking care of livestock and training horses. Naturally I seeked out jobs with animals too. I’ve worked 1 year at a horse barn and then 2 years at a vet clinic. While working at an animal clinic I learned how to take care of every doggy personality whether it be high reactivity, shyness, dog-aggression, or high energy. I also, of course, learned a good bit about vet med too. I’ve also taken care of many types of cats friendly and sassy ones too! I know how stressful it is leaving a fur baby behind but I want pet owners to know I will give my absolute best care to each and every animal and keep you in the loop with paw-some photos! I currently have wide open availability until July 18th, feel free to reach out. Starting July 21st I’ll be free weekday mornings and evenings and have open availability during the weekends. I am able to do whatever you feel is best for your pet; whether that is plenty of walks or plenty of good tummy scratches or both. I have enough experience to be able to care for your pet in the best way possible.

About: Hello neighbors and strangers, my name is Devin; but, you can call me Devo! I love animals, especially the kind, soft-furred, emotionally supporting ones. You can trust that I will not mistreat any animal in my care and protect them with my life. I live in the SW side of Decatur, AL. We have a decent fenced in back yard where your pets can run, jump, and have all the exploring adventure that they desire. I am currently not a pet owner but my roommate has a small dog. He's kind to children and if he meets another dog properly . Thinks he's bigger than he is. I have experience caring for cats, and lizards as well. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for pets. Working for myself currently so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services. It is fenced in back yard where the pets can run around and play. Clean house ... Really don't allow dogs on the furniture or in my personal room . I can play with your pet and give the necessary attention. I am available for whatever your needs are, rather it be short term or long term, cold or hot I am the man with the plan to care for your dog. Well I live in a nice, beautiful, quiet neighborhood where its normal to see a bunch of pet owners, so Rover fits right in. I work for myself and am a on call handyman and lawn service provider. I'm usually close to house all day with frequent check ins. Within a every 4 hour period. I am easy going with animals. I may have to hug an pet to show support, may have to conversate with them, play tag, tug of war.

About: I’m deeply empathetic, detail-oriented, and have years of experience in caregiving—which makes me especially attuned to the needs of pets who need a little extra love, patience, or routine. I’m not just a sitter or a walker; I care for your pets like they’re part of my family. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and anxious pups, and I genuinely love creating a calm, comforting environment that helps them feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals as part of my day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a morning or evening drop-in, or helping out while you're at work or away, I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to show up when your pet needs care and company. It’s a meaningful way for me to stay active and connect with animals—something I genuinely enjoy. I treat every client’s home with the same respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully, stick to your pet’s routine, and double-check that doors, gates, and crates are secure before I leave. I’m very mindful of creating a calm, safe environment—especially for pets who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra reassurance. Building trust is important to me, so I always communicate clearly, provide updates, and do my best to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart.

“Oh sweet Annalyse! I’m so grateful that she was so prompt in all of her communication with me as we worked out the best timing for her to walk Wylie. She was kind natured and accommodating and gave Wylie a great walk around our neighborhood. I’m excited to have found a backup plan when my schedule is to busy.”

It’s actually adorable. I’d trust Cam with any of my animals!”

April J.
“April is one of the most passionate dog lovers I have ever met. When she sees a dog she wants to love it. She treats all dogs as if they were her own personal fur babies. She has even brought me into the world of loving dogs. If you don’t love a dog then you don’t know how much it can change your life until it does. She brought that into my life and I will forever be grateful for that. I would trust no one else but her with my dog.”

“Megan is the best with dogs. We got a puppy last April named Ellie. Megan kept Ellie for a week, the past 2 years, while we went to the beach. She is awesome. She loves the outdoors and she had Ellie out walking everyday. She really loves dogs of any kind. I know of a few other people that have ask her to watch their dogs.
