Pet Sitting in Elrod

“Destini is an awesome pet sitter! She doesn’t mind doing the dirty work that sometimes comes with the job and she loves the snuggles with the pets. She took great care of our dogs, one of which had huge seperation anxiety and left her messes each visit. I apologize again Destini. I recommend her! Thank you again for taking such good care of our babies!”

I am very attentive to all animals under my care. I will always have my eyes on them and I love to provide enrichment activities.

“Catherine was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my pups were well taken care of while my husband and I were away. Both of my dogs suffer from separation anxiety, and she did everything she could to make the both of them feel comfortable. She sent daily updates with photos at each drop in to let me know how they were doing!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors. I am responsible, patient, and love spending time with animals. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like they are my own and always pay attention to their needs and routines. I am a full-time student at the University of Alabama, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins for both dogs and cats. I always make sure pets get the attention and care they need while their owners are away.

About: About Us: We’re a dog-loving couple with experience caring for our own pups and others’. We offer a calm, loving home with a fenced yard and give lots of attention. We’re home most evenings and weekends, and we’re happy to stick to your dog’s routine to the best of ability. Whether it’s cuddles, fetch, or medication needs—we’ve got it handled! Why We Do This: We know how important it is to find someone you trust. Our dogs are part of our family, and we treat your fur baby the same way! We both work full-time during the day, but pet care still fits naturally into our routine. Mornings and evenings are structured and calm—ideal for play time in the backyard, feeding, and one-on-one time with your pup. Your dog will get plenty of attention before the day starts, and once we’re home, our evenings are dedicated to winding down with our pets. Weekends are usually spent at home, giving us time for longer playtime and cuddles. With our love for animals and established routines, your dog will feel safe, cared for, and part of our little family. If we visit your home, we will be sure to take care of your animal before and after our work day-as needed. We have a fenced in backyard, two dogs for company (a dog fence in the house if they you’re not comfortable with them mingling), and we will spoil your dog-just like we do ours! Our dogs have prescription food, need special care, and medicine, so those things are not unfamiliar to us!

“Mary demonstrated absolute resilience in providing care for Nyla, a pet requiring SIGNIFICANT attention, successfully navigating challenges through extremely innovative approaches. We absolutely appreciate Mary never giving up and insisting on making it work! Thank you so much, Mary!”

“I’m so grateful for the care Kanese gave my dog while we were away for a week. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my pup’s well being. I loved getting photo updates and could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I am a loving dog mom who views pet care as a privilege rather than a job. I have three dogs of my own and have been taking care of pets basically my whole life. I want people to feel they can be absent without being missed while I keep their pets happy, healthy, and entertained at their home or mine. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to keep your pups entertained and cared for whether it be house sitting, walking, stop-ins, or boarding. Can board anytime of the week as long as pet is crate trained (crate is provided by me). I have a fenced in back yard with 3 friendly dogs to keep your furry friend entertained. Dogs are more the welcome to run around and play inside my home as well. I have lots of toys and lots of energy. My dogs and I love going on walks just as much as we love cuddling on the couch watching movies.

“Leah was great!! She always showed up for drop-ins, and followed our feeding instructions perfectly. She took great care of our cat, played with her during visits, and sent pictures each time. I'd definitely choose Leah again!”

“Great Experience!”

About: I’ve grown up having two dogs in my house at a time since I was born until I left for college. Since being in college, I’ve been fostering dogs to give them a happy, comfortable, and safe few days out of the shelter! I have always had a love for dogs whether they are my own or one passing by me on the street. I’ve pet sit for many acquaintances and family and would love to take care of your fur baby as well! I’m a college student with a very flexible schedule, and I’m never away from my apartment for more than 1–2 hours at a time. I also foster dogs often, so I’m used to providing consistent attention, care, and love. I can easily be available throughout the day for walks, cuddles, and any extra care your pet needs! I live in an apartment with a floor-level balcony, so there’s no fall risk but plenty of space for some fresh air and outdoor lounging! While I don’t have a yard, I make up for it with frequent walks and lots of attention. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe, keeping their routines as close as possible to what they’re used to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, keep things tidy, and make sure each pet gets plenty of care, playtime, and cuddles!

“Anna was very sweet and patient with our three animals. One dog was a bit hesitant the first day but Anna was incredibly patient and got the dog to love her. She stayed to play with the dogs even if it went over the 30 mins that we paid for. The pictures she sent were adorable and we will definitely use her for our next trip.”
