Meaghan and her family did such a great job with Kylo! He had the best day playing with the kids and their pets. It was so good to know he was having a blast and being taken care of while we were gone for a long day at the ball field!

About: Hi! ❤️ My name is Natalie Ikner. I am 25 years old and am a full time college student with all of my work online & a stay at home mother. I am pretty much always at home so your pups would have someone around 24/7 during their visits! Since I am home full time I’ve decided to start offering my services on Rover to help my fiancé with the bills. Plus, I LOVE animals of all kinds!! So why not? Your pup will have ample play & potty time on account to me being here all hours of the day during their stay. I also offer drop ins. I’m excited to meet your pups!!! ❤️ My schedule is very open so I am always home. I do all of my college work online so I’m open schedule most of the time! I do not keep my dog in a crate, but I do hourly potty breaks (or more if needed for that specific animal) and I do allow my dog on my bed occasionally.

About: I am a 30 year old female who loves all animals. I have grown up with animals all my life and have owned many of my own pets. I very much like spending time walking around or just sitting and gaming and cuddling with my pets. I am able to train puppies as i have owned a 3 time grand champion vizsla, though I am no professional I was just taught so i could show my dog. I enjoy spending time in the woods and or in the ocean just being about in the beauty of nature. I hope and pray to be able to meet your little or big angel because that is what a pet is an ANGEL and a beloved family member. please enjoy your day! it is my life. i do this for my job, but i do love all animals so i am more than happy to do this. im very patient and willing to just let them get to know me. i follow things to a tee that way your pet gets the care it needs

About: What truly sets me apart is my commitment to communication. I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed notes after each visit or walk, so you always feel connected to your pet. My background also includes volunteer work at a local animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience handling dogs with special needs and anxiety. You can count on me to treat your pet and home with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own. Reliability, compassion, and peace of mind—that’s what I bring to every visit. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize creating a consistent and safe environment for every pet in my care, whether that means early morning walks, timely feedings, or engaging play sessions throughout the day. I incorporate time each day to monitor health, behavior, and comfort, ensuring pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away. On a weekly basis, I plan for special outings, grooming (if needed), and ongoing communication with pet owners to provide updates and maintain trust. Caring for animals is more than a job—it’s a responsibility I take seriously, and I structure my schedule to reflect that commitment. I have a fenced in privacy fence back yard! As well as a temperature controlled garage if needed to separate! I have an extra crate if needed as well!

First time using Colleen for daycare, she did a wonderful job with our little picky guy. Teddy had a great time playing and snuggling each day. Communication each day went smoothly. Colleen made drop off and pickup a breeze. We will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets for about 5 years now. From dogs to cats and hamsters. I’ve always been the designated pet sitter for my neighbors and family! I am currently a stay at home mom so I am available any days of the week, and can work around any time you prefer! Pets will all have a clean and calm environment as I have no pets at my house and just one baby. They will take frequent potty breaks and walks. Food and water will always be out and available to them. I will provide updates and pictures throughout the day!

About: Experienced Pet Care for All Kinds of Animals! I’ve always loved animals, and over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a wide variety. I’ve farm-sat for a property with 5 dogs, 16 horses, chickens, and a cat. I’ve also looked after homes with aquariums, koi ponds, ferrets, hedgehogs, and turtles. I even have experience working with parrots and parakeets. With over a decade of dog-sitting experience for both small and large breeds, I’m dedicated to following every pet’s unique routine—whether that means daily walks, special diets, or administering medications. Your pets will get all the outdoor time, care, and attention they need while you’re away. I have multiple references available, and I’m happy to provide them to give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure you can enjoy your time away, knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m dedicated to providing exceptional care for your pets, offering a range of services including house sitting, drop-in visits, boarding, and dog walks. My schedule is designed to accommodate your needs. Whether you need someone to stay overnight, check in on your pets during the day, or take them for a walk, I’m here to provide loving and reliable care. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or specific requests! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize following any specific instructions you provide to ensure your pets receive the best possible care. I will maintain their routine and comfort by adhering to their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care requirements. In addition to pet care, I’m happy to help with small tasks around your home, such as collecting mail, taking out the trash on designated days, and ensuring everything is in order while you’re away. My goal is to provide peace of mind, knowing that your pets are loved and your home is well cared for. For pets in my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, social interaction, and a cozy place to relax. Each pet is treated as part of the family, with plenty of attention and affection. If your pet is not a fan of cats or other dogs my house has the space for me to place my own pets into half the house providing everyone comfort and safety if needed.

Ben is one of the best dog sitters Lamby’s met! He was available last minute and even helped us with transport as we only had our RV and finding a pet friendly taxi in town was challenging. Lamb Chop almost wanted to stay with Ben he had such a good day, and he was perfectly tuckered out and content after a fun time.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I offer more than just sitting — I provide personalized attention tailored to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s gentle care for seniors, extra patience and playtime for high-energy pups, or basic training for young dogs, I’ve got the skills and heart to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like family — because they are. As a stay-at-home mom, I integrate pet care seamlessly into our daily and weekly routines. Each morning begins with feeding and checking on our pets, ensuring they have fresh water and a clean space. Throughout the day, I include walks, playtime, and interaction as part of our family activities—helping pets stay active and engaged. Grooming, cleaning litter boxes or cages, and maintaining their living areas are handled regularly, typically during nap times or quieter parts of the day. I also schedule weekly tasks such as bathing, or vet visits as needed. Caring for our pets is a natural part of our home life. As a stay-at-home mom, creating a safe, trustworthy, and nurturing environment is at the heart of my daily routine. I prioritize cleanliness, consistency, and attentiveness to ensure every member of the household—whether child, adult, or pet—feels secure and cared for. I understand how important it is to build trust through reliability and open communication, and I maintain a calm, structured environment that promotes comfort and peace of mind.

I wish I could use Amber over and over again! I live in Indiana and came to Alabama for a quick visit. Amber was accommodating to the difficulty that comes with timing when traveling. She is so kind and warm. She made me feel so reassured about dropping off my two boys and it looks like three of them had a blast. If I lived nearby she would 100% be my go to for all my trips. LOVED her!!!!
