Doggy Day Care in Forestdale

“Gracie has taken care of my dog Bowser multiple times and I couldn’t have anything better to say! I can tell he is so loved and well cared for when he’s with her. He’s always a happy little guy when I come to get him. She has helped me pretty last minute a couple of times now and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you have a pup, you can trust that Gracie will not only take care of them, but she will make sure they are so, so happy. I highly recommend her for boarding or doggy daycare!”

“Sarah was a life saver. I was visiting from Atlanta for a funeral. I never leave my dogs alone. Sarah arrived to pick Louie and Marie on time and dropped them off on time. She sent pictures and gave me updates. Very good experience.”

“Dave and his family (including his canine kiddos!) were AMAZING! I cannot speak highly enough or give enough kudos and praise! Dave was an excellent communicator; he was warm, welcoming, and caring. My little guy was happy and excited to see Dave’s pups and Dave, and to me, says everything I need to know!”

“Max had an awesome time at doggy day care with Daniel and Angela while I was working out of state! 🐾 Their home is so warm and welcoming—it’s the perfect pup retreat. They treated Max like one of their own and sent us thoughtful updates throughout the day (which totally made my day!). Max was all smiles when we picked him up and seemed pretty proud of himself for making new buddies—Barley and Greta, their two sweet terriers. They even let us know how much he ate, which this dog mom really appreciated. 10/10 would book again—Max gives them two paws up! 🐶💛”

“My little one is just 2 mos old. I was so happy to find Selena. Not only was she extremely loving to my Romeo but was also accommodating with adjustments needed to my booking. MOST OF ALL - Romeo loved her, I could tell he was in good care and in a safe environment. Thank you Selina.”

About: I’m Jessica! Sitter and caregiver to your pets! I also do short term fostering and am a cat kennel assistant volunteer at the Greater Birmingham Humane Society. My husband and I have two dogs, Maki (Brindle Belgian Malinois mix) & Turbo (American Staffordshire Terrier/Black Lab mix) who are sweet, goofy, smart babies. Totally spoiled! Many of the pet pics are with my husband, Joe, bc I never get good ones of myself apparently ha. Not only did I grow up in a pet loving family that allowed me to get to know and love many different breeds and types of fur babies, but I have been trusted to pet sit by friends, neighbors, and relatives many many times over the years. Several of the photos up are of foster pups and of some I’ve rescued. Some of my skills include potty training, social training, aggression correction with puppies, recognizing early illness symptoms and care. I’m trained to watch, recommend and act when medical treatment is needed. I also have experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medications with dogs and cats. I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking your pup. I also enjoy hiking the trails at ruffner mountain. I offer cuddles and companionship for the pup or kitty that prefers laps and affection over walks or hikes. I don’t mind sitting at my home or yours. I stay home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give a lot of attention to your pet and accommodate most plans! Respect to pets in their home is always given on my part. It’s your pets home and they should always feel safe! I will listen to the guidelines you give me and do my absolute best to be a trusted safe space person to your pet. I’ll spend as much time as your pet needs! I have a fenced back yard and two friendly pups that love to play. I also have indoor crates for mine and guests to be safely separated.

“Doug did a great job taking care of our dog, Paisley! We were visiting family and needed a sitter in a pinch (during a holiday weekend no less) and Doug was super quick to respond and help us out. He provided nice updates with photos, and it was clear Paisley had a great time and was well taken care of. He even took the extra effort to replace her ball when she lost it the bushes while playing outside. Would definitely use Doug again.”

About: I'd love to care for your pet! While here, they will have access to their own room (away from my personal pets), which they will stay in overnight and any time I am out of the house. Otherwise, they can hang out with my pets as much (or as little) as they want - always with my supervision. My own dog is shy and nervous, so I am happy to accommodate your dog's particular needs if they also are nervous with new people. I am at home all day, other than stepping out to run errands/socialize. I can provide potty breaks as often as you'd like and build your pet's schedule into my day/week. I can do drop-in visits and walks any time of day and play with your pet as long as you'd like. I have a small, fenced in yard (but your pet will always be supervised outside). I have a 31 pound female dog who is good with cats and small dogs. I also have a cat, who mostly keeps to himself. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe, with sidewalks on all streets. While here, your pet will have access at all times to their own private room (normal bedroom with windows) if they want to have their own space away from my pets, or if I am not at home to supervise them.

“Emily was so sweet! She was able to take our dog, Dixie, so I could attend my graduation. I was nervous, because I’ve never left her with someone she didn’t know. My mind was immediately put to ease when I met her! I know Dixie was paid a lot of attention, because she had no problem napping on the way home!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾
