“Morgan was great with Ace, great communication, sent pics and vids. This was my first time leaving my fur baby and she definitely made me feel so much better. I’m so grateful to have found her. I’ll definitely book with her for all upcoming trips I’m taking moving forward. If you’re a first timer like me, Go with Morgan! Ace wasn’t running from here when I picked him up. He was Good and comfortable. He missed up but he was okay also. That alone was confirmation being he’s never been away from us, not even a day. He had fun 🤩”


“The reviews are 100% reliable! Nyerah took really good care of my Mia baby. It was our first time leaving her with anyone so my anxiety was off the roof. However, Nyerah helped me be at ease by being super understanding and updating me throughout the day. She always stayed in touch so my husband and I were able to enjoy our trip without worrying. Thank you so much Nyerah, I will be booking you again!”


“The absolute best. Rebecca and her family took great care of my fur baby Shilo while we were on vacation. She kept me with daily updates and pictures of how well he adjusted to her home. Rebecca also took the time to ask questions about what I allowed him to do at home before she would allow him to do it at her home for example sitting on the couch (which we did allow) the fact that she took in consideration of what we allow at our home vs what she allows at hers meant so much to me. She explained that she didn’t want him to gain any habits before coming home she went out her way to make sure I was ok with any decisions she made before doing so. I love Rebecca’s energy she was very welcoming and I definitely will book again. Thank you so much to you and your family for opening your home to our Shilo we are very appreciative. See you soon.”


“Shelby did an excellent job with our pup! She sent plenty of photos to keep up-to-date and was very understanding when we were not able to pick our pup up at the scheduled time. Highly recommend her for future dog sits!”


“John and Missy are wonderful folks! They took great care of our little dog. They kept us updated throughout her stay and treated her like she was their own.”


About: I’ve been working with animals for over 5 years now and I don’t think I can ever get tired of it. I first started working at an animal clinic in my home town called Pate’s Animal Clinic at the age of 17 and now it has become a passion of mines to start my own business pet sitting and grooming. I love what I do so much and I can honestly say I don’t look at it as a job but more so a fun experience where I can do what I love while bringing joy to pets and pet owners. I am currently still working at the clinic part time but I’ve informed my boss about my pet sitting/ daycare job through rover and he has agreed to work around my schedule. On days I have bookings I will not be working at the clinic but I will still help him on my off days. I’ve set my profile to accept booking 2 days in advance so I will be able to notify Dr.Pate when I am busy. I have a fenced in yard so that they can play outdoors and I also will have areas set up indoors as well for small dogs and for when it is too cold or hot outside for your pet. The yard is fenced in from the front yard all the way to the back yard and the fence is in good shape but I will be keeping a close eye on them at all times to make sure they are safe and comfortable. When the pet first arrives I like to let them get comfortable with me before anything. I like to give them a chance to sniff me and warm up to me then I allow them to get comfortable with they’re surroundings such as being inside the house and the front yard. Once they are comfortable and they trust me I like to find fun activities which I like to call P.E for pets. Lol I just find this good for daily exercise for your pets such as playing fetch, swimming, going on walks, finding treats in the yard that I hide to see how well they’re senses are and etc. I picked up these exercises while working at Taylor crossing Animal Clinic in Montgomery a few months ago and I find them very helpful and fun for your pet. They will also have a feeding schedule provided by the owner that will tell me how often they eat, how much and if they have any medication that will need to be given to them.

About: I've been a devoted pet lover my entire life. From coaxing stray cats to my childhood home (much to my parents' dismay) to training horses, furry companions have always brought me immense joy. Since 2016, I've run a pet sitting business, and I'm excited to now offer boarding services in my home alongside in-home visits at your place. In my peaceful Valley Grande home, I host one to three pets at a time, ensuring a cozy and personalized experience. I have a fenced-in shady backyard for dogs who like to relax or play unleashed. I limit boarding to three pets from the same household, treating them as if they were my own. No crates are used (unless you prefer them for specific times), and your pets are free to roam my home. If you have a single pet, they’ll enjoy exclusive attention with no other animals boarded during their stay. Whether you have one, two, or three pets (dogs, cats, or a mix), as long as they get along at home, they’ll feel right at home with me. If any pet needs their own space, I’ll provide a private room filled with toys and comfy beds. My spacious home is far too big for just one person, and my mission is to make it a loving second home for your cherished companions. As a retired teacher and massage therapist, I’ve channeled my passion for nurturing into a dedicated pet care business. Working primarily from home with a flexible, part-time schedule, I’m able to provide your pet with the personalized attention and care they deserve. My availability ensures I can focus on meeting their unique needs, offering a tailored experience that prioritizes their comfort and well-being. As a professional pet sitter, I combine dedication with a deep connection to animals to ensure your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness. I approach each job knowing that by being attuned to your pet's needs, I can create moments of joy and engagement. These interactions not only provide your pet with the stimulation and care they crave while you're away but also allow me to quickly notice if they need extra attention. For me, pet sitting is far more than a job—it's a passion driven by those meaningful connections.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter to take care of my dog while I was out of town for two weeks. From the very beginning, she was warm, reliable, and experienced with dogs. She made me feel completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. Throughout the stay, she provided updates, photos, and messages, which meant so much to me. My dog looked happy, relaxed, and well-loved in every photo. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. When I came back, my dog was happy, healthy, and clearly had bonded with her and her dogs. I’m so thankful for the level of care she provided—it truly felt like he was part of her family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy sitter.”


“Chelsie took amazing care of our two pups. She was super communicative, flexible, helpful, and so kind. I could tell they enjoyed their stay that was full of cuddles and walks. We will be using Chelsie again in the future for pet sitting. Thank you so much!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I had 3 family dogs that relied on me as a teenager. Still, 12 years later, I have 3 of my own dogs. I’m experienced in caring for small and large dogs, while also in young and old dogs. I can give your puppy the extra attention they require to be happy and healthy. I’m also aware that senior dogs require special care like administering medications and physical assistance. You can relax knowing your fur baby is in safe hands. I am currently a stay at home mom, homeschooling my 6 year old. I’m very flexible and can work around your schedule with ease. Typically homeschool from 8:30-1, so all other hours are available. Whether you have a fenced in yard or not, I am able to provide confident leashed walks or simply playing fetch in the back yard. Of course I’m at the discretion of the owner on what they are comfortable with, and will respect their choices. Boarded dogs can enjoy the large private yard with as many walks/play time they need. I have 2 XL crates to rest peacefully at night or as needed. I am home most hours of the day to keep your pet company.

In my home, I maintain a safe, pet-friendly environment.

I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get enough exercise, and feel safe in their environment. I pay attention to details like cleaning up after them, refreshing water, and keeping their living space tidy and secure.

Nealie M.
“We can't express how grateful we are to Nealie for the exceptional care that she provided for our 7 year old dog, Willow, while we were out of town for a long weekend. Willow suffers from separation anxiety, making it incredibly difficult to leave her with anyone she doesn’t know. Making matters more difficult, our family/friends were all busy and couldn’t be around to help. We were understandably nervous, but Nealie completely put our minds at ease. From our initial meeting, it was clear that Nealie was compassionate and patient. She took the time to understand Willow’s specific needs and anxieties, and she implemented her own strategies to keep Willow calm and comfortable. While we were away, Nealie sent regular updates, including photos and videos, which helped calm our worries (maybe WE are the ones with separation anxiety! Lol). I could tell Willow was happy and relaxed in her care. She used calm music, calming scent diffusers, surrounded Willow with blankets that have our scent, and frequently took Willow out and on walks to keep her mind busy. She even played tug of war with her to keep her occupied! Nealie went above and beyond, and we returned home to our happy, healthy fur baby. If you have a dog with separation anxiety, or any dog for that matter, I wholeheartedly recommend Nealie to take care of them. She will definitely have repeat business with us!”
