“Raegan was so great with my puppy, Mayer while he was recovering from his neutering surgery! She sent me updates and pictures and made me comfortable when I was nervous to leave him home for the first time while I was at work. She welcomed a long list of care instructions from me, a crazy dog mom. I trust her with my pup and will be using her in the future!”


“Ashlyn did great and kept us updated regularly on our pets and how they were doing. We received regular picture updates and our pets really seemed to enjoy her company. I would definitely recommend her!”


About: Growing up we always had multiple pets so I’ve taken care of them my entire life. My senior dog recently passed, so I have experience with older pets as well. I have lots of patience! I work full time Tues-Fri, but if it’s in the area I can likely do lunchtime visits as well. My schedule Sat-Mon is very flexible! I live in an apartment complex with a fenced in doggy park as well as easy access to walking trails. My apartment also has a camera in the living room so I can check in when I’m not at home. I enjoy being outside and taking long walks, just as much as I like to sit around and lounge!

“Our cats seemed happy when we got back and Kennedy made a sweet Fourth of July enrichment box for our cats to play in. Our cat, Ginger, in particular, looked like he was having so much fun with it in the photos. 🧡 I highly recommend Kennedy and will absolutely be booking with her again!”


About: I love all animals! I have owned a chameleon, cat dog, hamster you name it I’ve had it. I enjoy animals so I can ensure your baby will be taken care of as my own! My availability is from Monday - Thursday 6:00am - 3:30pm! :) Friday I’m completely available! :) If needed I can also do 10:00pm - 1:00am I had for cats and they had their own room! They had plenty of cat toys and many cat trees. They are my children so there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for them.

“We are so thankful that we chose Marilyn to take care of our new puppy Nola while we were away for a week. We were apprehensive about leaving her but unfortunately, she could not travel with us. Marilyn sent photos and videos of her visits of Nola playing outside every day and it is clear she really spent a lot of time with her. We highly recommend anyone looking for a dog sitter to contact Marilyn as she is the best! We will definitely use her again.”


“Laura was wonderful! Very professional, and took great care of our dogs. She kept us updated on how they were doing. We could really tell that she treated them like her own pets. I would highly recommend booking her, and we will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

About: Hi! I am a trained veterinary technician with two years of experience. I have also personally owned many animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, parakeets, bunnies, turtles, frogs, and many more! I am comfortable with any age or sized animal. I have experience with new horns as well as elderly pets and disabled pets. I am a huge animal lover with a passion to assist your needs and your pets! I’m currently working part time in a creative field and have plenty of time to assist through the day and nights. I mostly work Tuesday-Thursday so I have complete flexibility during the day Friday-Monday as well as select hours Tuesday- Thursday. I have been a pet sitter for many years with many clients who I have helped for years. I will keep your space clean while tending to your pets needs. Right now I am the owner of a 3 month old holland lop bunny and a 5 month old kitten!

About: Hi! I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Mutts, labs, boxers, frenchies, you name it. Last year I started fostering dogs on the weekends and did my best to find them homes. I’m moving to Birmingham for a new job and I’m going to be so homesick from my dogs so I would love to take care of yours! I’m starting a job at UAB so I’ll be working a 9-5. On week days I could let them out before work and after work i can take them on walks, play with them, or just take them out if needed! Weekends I’m pretty free unless I’m having to work a sporting event. As I’m filling this out my two dogs are taking up a majority of my bed so I hope that says something. I take care of dogs however they need to be cared for. I’ve been around dogs that just liked my company and I’ve had some that all they wanted to do was play. I’m good with anything!

About: Admitted lifelong animal fanatic. I currently have a three-year-old Cavapoo named Goose and a 12-year-old orange tabby named Milk—my beloved fur babies! Over the years, I've volunteered with shelters and provided drop-in visits, doggie daycare, and boarding services for my furry friends. I have experience with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior companions. In August 2023, Goose and I graduated from Asheville Dog Academy's obedience program, and I’ve loved applying those skills to help other animals ever since. I recently moved back home to the Birmingham area after spending years in the mountains of North Carolina. Now, I’m thrilled to devote my time to caring for furry friends! I’m available for drop-in visits to walk, feed, and play with your pets or house sit if your babies enjoy a friendly guest. I’m happy to work around your schedule and will do my best to accommodate last-minute needs—life happens, and I totally get it! I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members. Let’s chat! Pets are family, and they play such an important role in our lives. Food, water, and potty breaks are essential, but sometimes animals need a little extra care...especially when their humans are away. Some dogs need to stretch their legs and burn off energy. If a trip to the dog park is their favorite thing, I’m a great pup taxi with an impeccable driving record! Others just need extra love and attention...whether it’s a belly rub, some good ol’ couch time, or simply companionship. That’s the good stuff, and I love every minute of it!

About: As a pet parent, sitter, and recently trained foster parent, I’ve taken care of fur babies most of my life. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, small dogs, large dogs, and everything in between. I have a fenced yard for playtime and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your dog sitting needs. I love dogs because they just make life better!🐶 I’m currently working part-time from home and will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pup. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced yard and a newly adopted puppy who makes furry friends easily and would love to keep your pup company. I can also crate your fur baby if needed.

About: I’ve been working with Pawms Pet Resort for almost 5 years. I manage the daycare, which has an average of 50 ish big dogs at a time; and I’ve bathed, fed, or walked every breed of dog you can think of. Walking, bathing and loving pets is all I know! I also can medicate them if your pups are sick. I have over 1000 hours of experience and you will have absolutely nothing to worry about. I give the best work possible for better prices than all of the big businesses around town. I have unconditional love for standard pets of all shapes and sizes. I’ve broken up plenty of dog fights and been bitten, but it doesn’t bother me anymore. If worse comes to worst I also know CPR for dogs. I am a kennel technician at the Pawms Pet Resort in Avondale and taking care of, bathing, feeding and making them feel loved is what I do for a living. I just moved out, however we had a Boston terrier and a beagle; and we would play with them in our fenced backyard or take them on walks around the block. I now live next to highland park and I also work at a doggy daycare.

About: I have had many different breeds and types of dogs my whole life and have a decent sized back yard for for everyone to play in! I work for a school system and currently work Monday- Thursday 7-2 and come home around 10:30-11 to check on my dogs. I’m off Friday-Sunday and will be home more often during the summer My dogs eat once a day and have open access to water bowls. I do have a separate room that I can use to feed anyone who is not good at communal feeding or eats more than once a day. All of my dogs are friendly with other animals! I have one female dog who does not like other male humans
