About: 🐾 Your Pet’s New Best Friend! 🐶🐱❤️ Hi there! I’m a proud U.S. Army Veteran, pet owner, and lifelong animal lover! My passion for animals inspired me to step into the wonderful world of pet sitting and boarding. As an Army veteran, I understand the importance of discipline, responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. I bring those same values into caring for your furry family members! With years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, personalities, and temperaments, I understand that every pet deserves patience, love, and individualized attention. Whether it’s walking, feeding, grooming, playtime, or extra cuddles, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. ❤️ A Little About My Experience: I proudly volunteered with the Greater Birmingham Humane Society for 7 years, where I helped rescue and care for many animals. This experience taught me how to build trust with pets, especially those who may be shy, timid, nervous, or adjusting to new environments. I also provide pet care services through Wag!, where I’ve proudly earned a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-star rating for my dedication, reliability, and quality of care. As a veteran, I take pride in being dependable, trustworthy, and committed to providing excellent service. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. 🐾 My philosophy is simple: Your pets are family, and they’ll be treated like family when they’re with me! From belly rubs to daily walks, I’m here to provide a loving, safe, and fun experience for your furry companions while giving you peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and making some new furry best friends! 🐕🐈❤️ Veteran-Owned Care 🇺🇸 | 7 Years of Humane Society Volunteer Experience 🐾 | 5-Star Wag!

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.

“Lucy did an outstanding job watching our dog. She went above and beyond. I highly recommend Lucy!”

Travis R.

“I don’t trust many people with my furkids, but Erik is GREAT with my dogs! I don’t worry when I know he’s looking after them. He’s attentive and very interactive…they love him. Erik is very friendly, responsive and communicative—he’s my ‘go-to’ Rover and I highly recommend him.”

Angie C.

“Isabella did a drop in for our girl! She was amazing and had great communication! She also went out of her way to clean our dog bowls! Thank you so much! Highly recommend her for your animals.”

About: I’m an educator, dad, and lifelong pet owner with more than 20 years of experience caring for animals. Pets have always been part of my family, so I understand that trusting someone with yours is a big deal. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and comfortable following established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little things that help a pet feel safe and comfortable. As an early childhood professor, caregiving, observation, communication, and responsibility are quite literally part of what I do every day. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and affection I expect for my own. As a university professor, my schedule offers more flexibility than a traditional 9-to-5, particularly on certain weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m also a dad, so planning, routines, and being dependable are already a big part of my life! I’m happy to coordinate care around your pet’s normal schedule whenever possible and will always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. I know pets are family, and I treat both your pet and your home with that level of care and respect. I follow your instructions closely, maintain established feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines, and pay attention to changes in behavior or appetite. I’m patient about letting pets warm up to me at their own pace and prioritize safety at all times. You can also expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away. I know how reassuring it is to know that someone you love is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.

About: I have cared for a variety of animals and am comfortable caring for any pet (including exotic or uncommon), any age, any size, any level of care, and any personality! I have past experience caring for senior animals (including dogs, cats, and horses) as well as animals under age 1 (including dogs and cats). I often volunteer at the Birmingham Humane Society! Although I am not offering training services, I have experience training and am willing to uphold any training regimen. I have experience shadowing a household pet veterinarian as well as an equine veterinarian. I also have farm animal care experience. I love playtime and am very attentive! I am very excited to care for your pet! I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. I can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays after 7 pm. My apartment is the perfect environment for boarding! I am available for boarding some weekdays all day, but I will need notice 5 days and to coordinate in advance for boarding on a weekday before 7 pm due to shifting schedule days. For walks, let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy! For sitting, I will clean any pet messes if needed. Require a decently clean home and closer distance if overnight sitting is needed. Please, let me know of any concerns ahead of time. For boarding, I am in a one bedroom apartment with no other pets and decent play space. I have no toys, litter boxes, or cat trees so will need to provide their own. I live next to a large unfenced park. The apartment is clean and tidy and safe for pets. The apartment building also has a pet bathing station available if your pet needs cleaning. If you are concerned with a public bathing station, I am perfectly comfortable bathing your pet in the bath in my apartment. Please, let me know of any health or hygiene issues beforehand. Medications/allergies/health concerns are extremely important to me.

About: Hi! My name is Adrian, and I've been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I grew up helping care for large dogs and have always been the person my family relies on to feed, play with, and look after our pets. I especially love large breeds and enjoy spending time outdoors, playing, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'll treat your pets with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'm currently very flexible and have plenty of availability throughout the week for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Because my schedule is open, I can dedicate plenty of attention to your pets instead of rushing between commitments. I communicate regularly, send photo updates, and always make sure owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. For everyone's safety and comfort, I currently only offer care in my client's home. My family dog is not comfortable around unfamiliar animals, so I don't provide boarding in my own home. When caring for pets in your home, I carefully follow your routines, make sure fresh water is always available, maintain feeding and bathroom schedules, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a clean home
