Jade has been amazing with Winston and Wyatt! She’s super trustworthy, kind, and always makes me feel at ease when I’m away. I can tell my pups are in great hands every time. So thankful to have found someone I can rely on—I’ll definitely keep booking with her!

About: I’m really good with both puppies and older pets because I know they need extra attention and patience. I’m also great at keeping pets calm and happy while you’re away, so you can trust me to give them all the love and care they deserve! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 3:30! When I care for pets at my place, I make sure they have plenty of playtime, comfy spots, and regular meals. If I’m at their home, I stick to their usual routine so they feel safe and relaxed. Either way, I’m always there to give them lots of attention and love!

Terri was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! I’ve not seen my puppies that happy while we were out of town! She sent photos and text with updates throughout the day. Can’t remember the last time I was able to relax on a vacation not having to worry about my doggies and who was caring for them! We will definitely use her again!

About: Hi everyone! I've raised and cared for many types of animals my whole life! Growing up i'd rehab and release squirrels when needed (in CA), and have had quail, chickens, snakes, mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits, lizards, parakeets, finches, an owl, saltwater and freshwater fish, dogs, cats, volunteered cleaning horse stables, and grew up in the woods bonding with animals like deer and chipmunks like a little Pocahontas. I'm willing to learn anything needed to care for any kind of animal and won't back down from a challenge! I am available morning, lunch, and evening as well as most weekends. I'm easy to work with and flexible as long as my own animals and kids are taken care of first! I follow instructions and will always respect your wishes when it comes to care for your animal. Their safety comes first and i'll never jeopardize that! When caring for an animal, I understand they can make a mess and i'm happy to clean up. You wouldn't have to worry about coming home to your pets messes if it happens!

About: Hi! My name's Madison, and I've been taking care of and loving animals for well over a decade. I've helped raise 3 litters of puppies, worked at an animal rescue for 3 years, and shadowed a veterinarian (which was awesome). I'm currently a hairstylist, but my real passion is to be a certified veterinary technician and own a biiig plot of land full of animals! I love all animals from dogs and cats, to fish and birds. You got em; I'll love em! I personally have a rescue dog and cat, but my mom has 2 senior-aged King Charles Cavaliers that I grew up with and groom for her. I've owned fish, snails, puppies, kittens, dogs, and cats, and I've cared for other people's birds, fish, reptiles, and guinea pigs. I definitely have a soft spot for guinea pigs and other small fluffies so if you have one (or multiple!) give me a shout!! I'm self-employed so I can walk, bathe, train, or care for your (and my) animals whenever I need to! I typically take my dog out every few hours, and feed her twice a day, but can adapt that to your pets! I'm very soft-spoken and understanding of why pets do what they do, so need to worry about harsh scoldings or punishments around me. I'm a firm believer that this is our pets' world and we're just living in it! I do allow my pets on furniture and on the bed, but can be accommodating to any behaviors you want me to avoid with yours! My job situation is a little unstable right now, like many others, but I will try my best to be available during peak hours for you and your pets! When walking dogs in my care, I make sure to go out mostly during the daylight, but if I do go out at night I make sure I have my flashlight on so cars can see and I use a location app that sends emergency services to my precise location if something were to go wrong. I also keep all doors, windows, trash cans, cabinets, etc. closed while inside so no one gets into anything they’re not supposed to be in.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life & have loved taking them walking. I understand that dogs can’t go all day without being let out, so I want offer my services for walks or potty breaks. I don’t like leaving my dog all the time by herself, so I want others to have a safe space for their animals as well. Dogs get lonely too! During the week early morning or evening and weekends any time! Fridays-Sundays are flexible for me as long as we communicate your needs to make sure I can fit them. I have a 5 year old Weimaraner. She enjoys sleeping on the couch during the day and chasing her ball and going on long walks at night. She gets plenty of treats & love because she’s our fur baby

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life growing up with dogs, cats, and even small animals gave me a strong foundation in compassionate and attentive pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through while others travel, where I stayed in people’s homes and looked after their animals like they were my own. I’ve also spent time fostering animals, helping them adjust to new environments and providing them with love and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just companionship, I’m experienced and comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments from playful puppies to shy rescues Pets are naturally part of my daily life! I have two cats of my own and have fostered animals in the past, so caring for pets is already built into my routine. Whether it's feeding, cleaning, playing, or giving love and attention, I make time each day to ensure animals feel safe and happy. I'm home often, which allows me to give pets the consistent care and companionship they deserve throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I offer a calm, welcoming environment with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely explore or relax. We also have a peaceful pond area that many pets enjoy watching. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to keep their routine consistent, give them comfort, and respect their space like it’s my own.

Is there an option for 100 stars?!? Celeste is a gem! She stayed with our two Pyrenees for 8 days and we never worried about a thing. We got pictures/videos every day and could see that our puppers were happy and well cared for. Celeste kept the house clean and kept the puppers even cleaner! We could tell she had brushed and groomed them throughout the week. She is also a talented artist and left a drawing of the puppers on our fridge. We highly recommend Celeste to care for your fur babies ♡

Jeannine was incredible! Communication was awesome and she took really good care of my 3 year old lab mix and 9 week old bully puppy. My babies absolutely loved her! She played with them and took them for an outing. She took pictures throughout the day and texted them to me. One picture even showed my 3 year old lab mix laying in her lap in the recliner. 😁 This was a great experience. I will definitely rebook with Jeannine in the future.

Jill was outstanding! We received several pictures and updates on how things were going during our absence. All of our babies (one dog and three cats) were well taken care of and happy. Our home was spotless upon our return and she even checked in to make sure everything was left ok. Not once did we have to worry or be concerned about anything while we were gone. We highly recommend Jill - she'll do a fantastic job pet/house sitting for you. We definitely plan on using her again the next chance we have!

Alora went above and beyond. My girlfriend constantly communicated and requested Alora to do new things. Alora responded in a timely manner and didn’t disappoint. She informed us of what she was doing when she did it and kept our anxiety down. After vacation, we returned to a home with nothing out of place or any property damaged. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!

About: Hi! I’m Megan, a lifelong dog lover with a heart (and home) made for pups of all shapes and sizes. What sets me apart? I treat every dog like family — not just with walks and feedings, but with play, enrichment, and genuine love. Whether your pup is high-energy, shy, or a senior who needs extra TLC, I tailor care to their personality and routine. I’ve got experience with everything from belly rubs to administering meds, and I keep you updated with daily photos and pup-dates so you never miss a tail wag. If you want someone who shows up with treats, toys, and tons of love — I’m your person. 🐕💛 I’ve worked with animals for years from rescuing dogs as a girl to the Birmingham Zoo! I currently work at Wags and Whiskers right here in Dothan! I recently left my 9-to-5 to focus full-time on something I truly love — caring for dogs! That means your pup will get my full attention, flexible scheduling, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I offer in-home pet sitting with plenty of snuggles, playtime, and a calm, stress-free environment. Since leaving my 9-to-5, I’m home full-time — meaning your pup gets round-the-clock attention, companionship, and care. My home is safe, clean, and set up for comfort — whether your dog loves lounging on the couch, playing in the yard, or enjoying quiet time. I follow your pup’s routine closely, offer updates with photos and videos, and make sure they feel secure and loved every step of the way. Think of it as a mini-vacation for your pet — with all the comforts of home, and a sitter who truly cares. 🐶💛

She enjoys sleeping on the couch during the day and chasing her ball and going on long walks at night. She gets plenty of treats & love because she’s our fur baby

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life growing up with dogs, cats, and even small animals gave me a strong foundation in compassionate and attentive pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through while others travel, where I stayed in people’s homes and looked after their animals like they were my own. I’ve also spent time fostering animals, helping them adjust to new environments and providing them with love and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just companionship, I’m experienced and comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments from playful puppies to shy rescues Pets are naturally part of my daily life! I have two cats of my own and have fostered animals in the past, so caring for pets is already built into my routine. Whether it's feeding, cleaning, playing, or giving love and attention, I make time each day to ensure animals feel safe and happy. I'm home often, which allows me to give pets the consistent care and companionship they deserve throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I offer a calm, welcoming environment with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely explore or relax. We also have a peaceful pond area that many pets enjoy watching. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to keep their routine consistent, give them comfort, and respect their space like it’s my own.

Is there an option for 100 stars?!? Celeste is a gem! She stayed with our two Pyrenees for 8 days and we never worried about a thing. We got pictures/videos every day and could see that our puppers were happy and well cared for. Celeste kept the house clean and kept the puppers even cleaner! We could tell she had brushed and groomed them throughout the week. She is also a talented artist and left a drawing of the puppers on our fridge. We highly recommend Celeste to care for your fur babies ♡

Jeannine was incredible! Communication was awesome and she took really good care of my 3 year old lab mix and 9 week old bully puppy. My babies absolutely loved her! She played with them and took them for an outing. She took pictures throughout the day and texted them to me. One picture even showed my 3 year old lab mix laying in her lap in the recliner. 😁 This was a great experience. I will definitely rebook with Jeannine in the future.

Jill was outstanding! We received several pictures and updates on how things were going during our absence. All of our babies (one dog and three cats) were well taken care of and happy. Our home was spotless upon our return and she even checked in to make sure everything was left ok. Not once did we have to worry or be concerned about anything while we were gone. We highly recommend Jill - she'll do a fantastic job pet/house sitting for you. We definitely plan on using her again the next chance we have!

Alora went above and beyond. My girlfriend constantly communicated and requested Alora to do new things. Alora responded in a timely manner and didn’t disappoint. She informed us of what she was doing when she did it and kept our anxiety down. After vacation, we returned to a home with nothing out of place or any property damaged. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!

Megan takes great care of my dogs! One of my dogs is very weary of new people but she took to Megan quickly during their first meeting which says a lot to me. Her knowledge of animals and ability to adapt to their different personalities makes her fantastic at what she does!
