Dog Sitting in Bessemer

“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!”

About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)

“Hunter was great with my dog! We will use him again soon!”

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember, including cats, dogs, rabbits, and yes, even a hermit crab. I have also lived in a household with reptiles, including snakes, a bearded dragon, and geckos, so I am comfortable caring for a wide range of animals and personalities. I currently live in a household with six adopted stray cats and three dogs. I am very familiar with multi-pet homes, different temperaments, and balancing individual needs. I have hands-on experience administering medications, including pills, tablets, topical ear medications, and injections. I am also comfortable providing geriatric care, including diaper use for senior dogs. I do not provide potty training or crate training for puppies. Otherwise, I am happy to give pets the extra patience, attention, and care they may need. I am currently completing a Master’s degree through an online program at the University of South Florida, which gives me significant flexibility. This allows me to be present with your pet for much of the day rather than coming and going frequently. I’m especially well suited for pets who benefit from companionship, consistency, and close monitoring. Animals tend to trust me quickly, especially those who are shy, cautious, or “not usually friendly.” During the Meet and Greet, I usually sit on the floor so I’m at their level and allow them to come to me in their own time. It often puts parents at ease to see their pet relax, approach on their own terms, and settle in naturally. While you’re away, I follow your instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays as familiar as possible, helping them feel secure and comfortable. I understand that I’m entering your pet’s space, not the other way around. My goal is for them to feel safe, loved, and genuinely cared for, not just watched.

“Carson did an amazing job watching our senior golden for us while we enjoyed vacation. We knew she was in good hands when we first met sweet Carson and continued to get thoughtful updates during the week. We will definitely be using Carson as a sitter again! Highly recommend”

About: I’ve taken care of homes and dogs for years now and love to serve families and pets when available. I’ve done it for almost 5 years for family friends I have a very open schedule with random work shifts but purposely leaving schedule open to do all types of jobs. I will be able to work often I love to hear specially what families and pets like to be best cared for and staying super clear on communication! Most of my experience coming from dog care

“Courtney took care of our 3 fur babies and was wonderful. She was super prompt with communication and when coming over to meet us gave our very excited puppy some extra love. She kept us updated on how they were doing and sent pictures which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Jameson also appreciated the time playing fetch in the snow! We will definitely be using Courtney again!”

“Kierah took great care of my two pups. She spent quality time with them, she didn't just come let them out for potty breaks but took the time to spend time with them. Highly recommend:.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5 and have had all ages so I have had experience in how handle them all. i do not go to school until after 9am and I am able to be home by 11:30am Monday thru Friday. I can be home all day Saturday and Sundays. Monday-Wednesday I typically work but have a flexible schedule and can change it if needed. So this will allow me to be the only person caring for your animal. In my home we let our cats roam and have their bowls out so they can eat whenever. If you need me to keep your cat on a schedule I can also do that. We feed our dog morning and night. I let him out in the morning and let him stay outside in our backyard/deck until I or someone else get home.

“Kayte was amazing to work with! She communicated quickly, was knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and took great care of my 2 cats. I will definitely use her pet sitting services again and highly recommend her! Thank you Kayte for taking such great care of Ridley and Olivia and giving me peace of mind while I was away.”

About: I have loved animals ever since I knew what one first was! My family was active in animal rescue and it is something I kept dear to my heart all my life. I’ve actively worked with local rescues as a foster and transport for decades. I have babysat numerous pets for people over the years & I thoroughly enjoy it. I love getting to know each special little personality & instilling peace in the owners, knowing their beloved fur baby will be taken the very best care of. I have four animals & they are my absolute joys. I will treat your pet as part of my family in your absence & look forward to hearing more about your pets individual needs & personality! Whether it’s in your home, my home, daily walks, doggy playtime, & dog sitting, I can take care of it all & put your mind to ease this holiday season while traveling to & from loved ones homes. Please let me know how I can be the best pet sitter for your fur baby! I work at a local Elementary School and summer starts Monday, May 26th. I have chosen to rejoin Rover for the next couple of months throughout my summer break to bring in extra income. I will make your pet my top priority! I have 3 cats and 1 dog who are all inside pets. I do have a fenced in backyard that my dog enjoys on occasion. I am not a stickler when it comes to animals sitting on my furniture or in my bed @ night. I have crate trained many animals, as well. I have many years of experience helping numerous animals, together or separately. If your pet would be staying with me my cats will not be an issue. My dog is extremely friendly but also, does not have to be there during your pets stay, should it be an issue. I offer in home boarding @ my home. I offer walking your dog, doggy daycare, spending time with your cat(s), and any other accommodations that maybe needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them is truly a passion of mine. My priority is always making sure every dog is happy, well-exercised, and well cared for—with full bellies, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I previously worked at a dog kennel for a year, where I gained hands-on experience caring for many different dogs and personalities. I loved building relationships with them, and they always responded well to my calm, caring approach. I also regularly spend time at the dog park with my own dogs, which has helped me become comfortable interacting with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. When your dog is with me, they’ll be treated like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your dog has a safe, fun, and positive experience every time. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs every day by feeding them, making sure they always have fresh water, taking them for walks, and spending time playing and exercising with them. I also regularly take them to the dog park so they can socialize and stay active. Because caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, adding pet sitting or dog walking fits in easily with my schedule. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets, my goal is to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I make sure they have fresh water, are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also provide a clean, safe environment where they can relax and feel at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the owner’s instructions and follow their pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, medication if needed, and playtime. I spend quality time with the pets so they feel comfortable while their owner is away, and I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of care and attention. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible for both the pet and the owner.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13 years old. I have my own pup named Benji, he is a Springer Spaniel, and a cat named Maizy. I will go above and beyond to ensure your baby is well taken care of. I also love to take and send pictures!! I currently work part time and have availability for check ins Thursday-Sunday. Whether your dog or cat needs to be fed, a potty break, or a quick play date I am available. I also can stay for extended periods of time and am willing to stay for a couple hours in the home if necessary and if you are comfortable! In your home I will of course ensure your pet has their basic needs met, including food, water, and pottying. But I also would love to take your dog on a walk or play fetch outside! As for cats I would love to play with them with their toys and keep them entertained! I will never let a dog outside their home or yard without a leash and I will only work with dogs of a size I can safely manage.
