“Kyra is wonderful!! She is so attentive and always gives me plenty of feedback after she walks pup. She is so quick to respond and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”



“Jessica did a great job walking my nervous/anxious dog. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog wasn’t scared or forced, spending extra time and treats to make sure she was comfortable. Jessica truly cares for animals and that is evident in the care she provided to my dog and her communications with me.”


About: I have two cats at home that are pampered and I have previous experience as a dog walker. Dropping in is more than ensuring your pet has food and water - I will also ensure they meet their activity and social interaction goals to feel happy :) I also have experience with administering oral medicine to cats if needed. I'm currently working full-time, so I have availability in the early morning, afternoons and evenings. I am also available on weekends. Feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to accommodate! In your home, I will respect your privacy while caring for your fur baby. Cleanliness is important to me, as well as making sure your pet doesn't feel lonely while waiting for their parent to return. I will also send descriptive updates and photos to ensure their well-being.

“Taylor is great. She says hello to Marshmallow and loves on him every time she comes over to walk him. Marshmallow gets excited when he sees her and he only gets excited for food.”


About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. With over 25 years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies learning their manners to senior pets who need a little extra love and patience. I’m comfortable with training, daily routines, and making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for. To me, pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and attention as my own. I’m home full-time with plenty of flexibility and reliable transportation, making it easy to provide dependable care whenever it’s needed. I genuinely enjoy helping both people and pets, and I love taking breaks for belly rubs, walks, and plenty of snuggles. I have a spacious fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, along with a friendly dog companion for those who enjoy company (or quiet time if they prefer being on their own). I can also crate pets if needed. My priority is making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while having a fun, positive experience.

About: I've been dog sitting for 9 years and absolutely love it! Whether it’s quick drop-ins for walks and meals, giving meds, or hanging out with a whole pack of pets, I’ve got it covered. I’ve done everything from weekend stays to long vacations, and I always treat your pets like part of the family. Snuggles, belly rubs, and happy tails are guaranteed! In Huntsville temporarily as I prepare to move to Australia in December... how does that work with my schedule? Well, I have a ton of time on my hands between my small projects to come care for your pets. I am extremely flexible and can make almost any day/time work! When caring for pets in and out of your home, I prioritize safety and trust with you and your pets by providing dependable, loving support tailored to your pet’s needs.

If you prefer a structured routine or a more relaxed, intuitive approach, I'm able to adapt to what works best for your pet. My goal is to always keep them comfortable, happy, and feeling at home while you’re away, and ensuring you feel connected with your pets by sharing updates and photos during each visit!

I will adhere to the instructions given by the pet owners for each individual animal, ensuring that I treat each pet according to their specific needs and requirements. This means I will be attentive to their dietary restrictions, exercise routines, behavioral preferences, and any special care instructions provided, all while maintaining a high standard of care and compassion for every animal in my care.

About: We called it “going to camp” when I had to board my dogs. Now I am the camp! Should be fun, not stressful, and peaceful for you!

I'm happy to care for your pet in your home or mine—whichever is more comfortable for them. I’m am attentive to special needs, if that means giving medication, sticking to a special routine, or offering extra snuggles and playtime. Every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved—especially while you're away. I treat your animals like my own and strive to make their time with me as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I have a flexible schedule, and will try and update the calendar if there are changes. I work from home most days, with outside appointments as needed. Please note: I have young school age children that love to help me, if your dog is not good with kids I will ask to watch in your home. I own my home, fully fenced yard, located in South HSV, I can tailor my services to your needs. If your dog loves to play I have a 5 year old dog that would be in heaven. No aggressive dogs.

About: I have experience through caring for my own dogs (one who is a senior dog), as well as friends and neighbors’ pets. I also own a snake and am comfortable with them as well.

I work full time during the week but would be home by 3:30 Monday-Friday and home on the weekends. I work from home sometimes depending on my schedule. My husband works from home so he would be home with your dog while I’m away so they would hardly ever be alone. I have a fenced in back yard and two friendly male dogs. They are mainly inside dogs but go out to play throughout the day. I would be happy to crate your dog if needed. We have a crate indoors.


About: Hi! My husband and I, along with our children (ages 15 & 8), love animals of all kinds and, while we aren't quite ready to add another four-legged friend to our family at the moment, we'd love to invite yours to be apart of our family for the short-term. ;) We've been Rover sitters for 5+ years and have several regulars, plus friends and family, that use our services regularly. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. :) I want you to be confident in your decision because I know how hard it is to trust your fur-baby with someone else. I work full-time from home. So, other than running errands or running the kiddos to/from their activities, I am home during the day to love on your fur-baby. When I'm home, I can let them out as often as needed (or they can utilize our doggie door) and can plan my schedule around their needs. I have a fenced in yard and two kiddos that would be more than happy to love on your fur-babies. We do ask that all dogs be crate trained. We have a XL travel crate that can be used. We only kennel them when we leave or at night to protect them and our home. 🤗

My commitment to creating a loving and stress-free atmosphere ensures that your pets will feel comfortable and loved in your absence. I currently am a stay at home mom. I help take care of my grandparents and volunteer at my children’s school. I have plenty of time and love to share with your babies! I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly fur babies. Both are fixed female, small/ medium dogs and adore making friends. I will take care of your pets with the guidelines you provide and either at your home or mine they will be loved!!

“Super star dog walker!! She took on my dog walks last minute, had great communication, very punctual, my dog liked her and she handled some naughty dog behavior (he left for his walk without her!) so thankful I found her.”

About: An animal lover of all shapes and sizes, I’ve grown up around animals all my life. I have been pet sitting for a year and a half, and amassed many different breeds and knowledge of their behavior during this time! My birth family primarily owned cats, including a diabetic old grump and kittens, and I’m generally known as a “cat whisperer”! Later on, my grandparents and I adopted a toy poodle named Pierre, who eventually developed diabetes as a senior, which we had to medicate. After he passed away we adopted our standard poodle, Isabelle, who was my soul puppy. She unfortunately passed away in January of 23 after a long struggle with pancreatic cancer, so I’m accustomed to providing all sorts of medical care as well as extremely customized diets and medication schedules. And right now my family and I are raising another standard poodle- Nova! She’s 2, and the light of my life. I raised and trained Nova and Isabelle, so I’m used to the puppy stage also. I’ve also grew up around fishkeeping & small animals of all kinds, and as a high-schooler/adult I’ve been a reptile/amphibian keeper. Specifically, I’ve owned hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, frogs, axolotls, snakes, geckos, chameleons, hermit crabs, and a hedgehog. While I have not personally owned birds, I’m very knowledgeable in their care also! This is currently my job! I am in college, however it is primarily online and I am away for no longer than 4 hours. Depending on the dog, we’ll spend the day relaxing or playing and at the end of the day we’ll be all tuckered out. Your pups safety and wellbeing is always my top priority! I will follow any instructions given and provide frequent updates & pictures. I am also well-versed in pair dynamics & anxious dogs!
