Dog Boarding Carlen

“Katherine did a great job taking care of Jet! He was as happy as can be with a house full of people to play with him! Would highly recommend!”

Rathin R.

“Once again, Callie was great with our dog! I love that she is so friendly, flexible, and she sends the best pictures! She could really charge for her photography skills as well (our boy is SUPER hyper so i can never get a good picture of him). I don't worry about him getting loose with her like I have with previous pet sitters. Highly recommend using Callie!”

Paige E.

“Natalie and her family were wonderful! They made our shy furbaby feel right at home. Great communication from the first meet and greet to the day of pick up. It’s so nice to know we can relax and not worry about our furbaby when we are out of town.”

Tracy W.

“Emalie was great with our two cats. She went above and beyond by getting their nails clipped for us and everything. Great place for all animals. I will be using her again in the future.”

Melissa A.

“Cory was amazing. His communication is very efficient and personable. Rosie slept for 24 hours after all her fun times with him running out her almost 1 year old puppy energy!! We were evacuating for Hurricane Ida, and he was very accommodating about our last minute schedule change. He even bathed her for a small fee before pick up. I have already recommended him to friends in Fairhope. He’s perfect for active, kennel trained dogs.”

Jodie M.

“We love Lauryn! She takes such good care of Molly and Molly is always so excited to see her! It gives me so much peace of mind to know my fur baby is in good hands!”

Julia M.

“Courtney did a great job! No worries while we were away, and we came back to a calm and happy dog - we will definitely use Courtney's Rover service again.”

About: Hi, I’m Paula! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m a complete softie for pets, and I do everything in my power to make sure every dog or cat in my care feels safe, loved, and genuinely happy. At home, my family includes two American Bullies and one cat, so I’m very comfortable with multi‑pet households and all the energy, personality, and joy that comes with them. I have a special love for bully breeds, but I truly enjoy working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Because my own pets have needed medication in the past, I’m experienced with administering medicine and keeping pets calm and comfortable during the process. Whether it’s daily routines, special instructions, or extra cuddles, I’m attentive and committed to giving each pet the best experience possible. My home is located in a safe, quiet neighborhood just a few blocks from Medal of Honor Park—perfect for walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor time. I’m also only about 15 minutes from Hophounds, the dog park/bar, which gives me even more options for fun outings when appropriate. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, pays attention to the little things, and genuinely loves what they do, I’d be honored to care for your furry loved ones. Pet care is already a built‑in part of my everyday life. With two American Bullies and a cat at home, my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. I’m used to managing different personalities and schedules, so adding another pet into my routine feels seamless. Throughout the week, I make time for morning and evening walks, enrichment, cleaning litter boxes, and keeping up with any medications or special instructions. Because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, it never feels like an extra task—it’s just part of how my days flow. Whether it’s daily check‑ins or longer stays, I’m already in the rhythm of providing consistent, loving care. When pets stay in my home, they’re welcomed into a calm, safe, and pet‑friendly environment. I have two American Bullies and a cat, so I’m already used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I keep routines consistent with what each pet is used to—regular feeding times, walks, play sessions, enrichment, and plenty of affection. My home is in a quiet neighborhood just blocks from Medal of Honor Park, which makes daily walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel secure while their family is away. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and litter care to walks, medication, and any special needs. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or simply offering calm companionship. In both settings, my goal is the same: to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, just like I do with my own animals

“James and Myrna were amazing! Myrna was sure to send photos and videos of my pup the whole time we were gone. Cairo had a blast at her visit which is apparent by how worn out she is after getting home! We will be sure to use James and Myrna for our future needs! I had no concerns at all that Cairo would be well taken care of when we left!”

“Courtlyn did a wonderful job of watching our golden retriever, Marty! She gave us updates everyday and even bathed him for us when he had a little too much fun outside! She was super to contact and communicate with and we will definitely be booking with her again!”

Olivia W.

“Penny spent a week with Lindsey and her pack and she seemed to be very happy and content with her stay. Lindsey provided updates every morning and evening, letting me know that Penny had eaten her food and what she had done for the day. She also included pictures in which I could tell Penny was having fun. During her visit it was July 4 and Penny is extremely scared of fireworks. Lindsey made a safe space for Penny and checked on her consistently. I feel that Penny was in good hands with Lindsey and her family. I would not hesitate to leave Penny with Lindsay again!”

Laura P.

“Ms. Robin is a beautiful soul. We became friends instantly at our meet'n greet with our Sammy boy. She took care of him like he was her own. She treated my husband, my kids and myself like family. She sent me pictures of Samson everyday and kept us updated on how he was doing. We are truly blessed to have found Ms. Robin. Now our Samson has two mommies. We didn't just find a great Rover sitter in Ms. Robin we found a new member of our family.”
