I was so happy to leave my diabetic cat in such great care! Great pictures and communication while I was gone, came home to a happy cat. Will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve had a pup in my household my whole life and I began walking and dog sitting for others in 2020. I have taken classes on pet and animal CPR. I am very caring and will taken great and extra care of your animal! Currently working a part time job and I am about to start a second one. I’m available for your pets in the mornings and early afternoons on weekdays with the possibility on weekends depending on work. On days that I am off I can accommodate multiple walks and/ or check ins. I have a medium sized dog who’s 2 years old at home, as well as a small 15lb pup. I listen well to instructions and take precautions if needed. I do not offer services for your dog to come to my home, however I will care for your dogs with the same quality.

About: I've taken care of multiple breeds, ages, sizes and temperaments of dogs. I love taking them on walks or playing with them to help keep them active and entertained. I've owned dogs for most of my life and look forward to taking care of yours how you would yourself! I'm currently working part-time and have an open schedule, so I'm happy to look after your pup on relatively short notice. With enough heads up, I am happy to make my way to your dog and give them the attention they need! I can easily work with crating your pet how you see fit and am adept at handling different dog behaviors. If there's any part of the house that needs to be restricted from the dog, I'm able to accommodate. I also have experience with medicine administration for pets who need them as well.
About: I truly enjoy creating a calm, loving environment where your animals feel at home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own:) Currently a third year medical student at UABHSOM who is always looking for a furry friend to be around and take study breaks with! I love incorporating walks, playtime, and rest into my daily routine with the pets I take care of. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible! I want to take the time to learn yours and your pet’s preferences and give them the care they deserve while keeping your life stress free!

Kaylee made going out of town so much less stressful knowing my babies would be well taken care of! She provided photos everyday and I really loved hearing her in depth updates on how they were doing. I absolutely would recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.
Isabelle has watched my cat before, and was just as communicative and amazing as last time!
