About: Everything short of cutting claws and milking glands. We'll go out a lot together if that's what you’re after or stay in and play “hide the treats in blankets.” Skittish and vivacious canines welcome. I squeeze about thirty hours of my day job into odd slots around caring for my human and high needs dog. While taking two dogs on leashes to Vesuvius is probably a tall order, Central Bark or the Flatwoods dog park are no problem at all. There are so many rugs in this house that I don't care about that if your dog has an accident it is absolutely nothing to me. There is a 1/6 acre of about ten oak and maple trees directly next door for frolicking and my neighbor with her spayed female cat and fixed three year old Shepherd girl to walk over to. If your dog needs a little cooling off, most dogs like cooler conditions, and the five dollar coin op dog wash in Flatwoods

About: Since I was 12, I had a calling for pets! My dream job was to be a vet, but life had a different plan for me. I joined the Air Force and became a nurse. I now am a cat coordinator at Eglin Pet Welfare, where I have been able to expand my knowledge for animals and their well-being! Being in the military can be lonely at times being away from family. Asher, my 6 year old Great Pyrenees has been my rock through those times. We’ve expanded our pet family some more with Charlie my 6 month old Great Pyrenees mix and a few kitties along the way! Between my boyfriend and I your furry friend won’t spend more that 4-6 hours alone! My personal pets get morning feeding and play time before I head into work and then get and evening walk whenever I get home. I have a 6 Ft privacy fence and a very large backyard that your baby can enjoy! I personally have 3 fur babies that will keep your fur baby company! If you certain rules that you follow in your house I will ensure to continue with those rules during their stay. Thinking about bringing in a cat? I have a room that is camera monitored and tailored towards them!


8. Gino H.
“Gino has such a loving nature with all my animals. He truly loves all gods creatures. My pets immediately took to him. Went above and beyond to make sure they were all happy and comfortable. Was always on time, kept me informed, made me feel at ease while I was away. He is definitely what you want with your loved ones. I highly recommend him.”


9. Jeri Anna R.
“Jeri is very loving and kind to animals... she very much cares for the animal's well-being and was very dedicated to ensuring our dog was fed and watered to our requests. She also provided helpful suggestions on ways to improve our dog's health and vitality. Kaya always got extra doggie treats when Jeri was around. :) When our dog was hit by a car, she went above and beyond to ride with me to the vet and hospital while holding our Kaya lovingly as we drove from vet to hospital and back home. She also took special care of Kaya and assisted in many ways as we went through this traumatic experience... giving us encouragement through the whole process of surgery and recovery. Kaya is happy and healed... and in no small part because of Jeri's prayers and support. We highly recommend Jeri as pet sitter. She will care for your dog as if it is her own.”


10. Lexi W.
“We had lexi watch our 4 labs and you can tell she just loves dogs. She is respectful of our house and our pets needs. She even made sure they got some exercise outside.”


11. Molly M.
“Molly has been an absolute lifesaver! She treats my babies like her own and goes above and beyond for me and for them when I'm away! 10/10 recommend her to anyone and everyone!”


12. Jenna G.
“Jenna is an amazing pet sitter. I have had her pet sit my animals about 10 times and every time she does great. She actually trained one of my puppies. When I came home he was potty trained! I recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”


13. Mallory J.
About: Growing up, my mother ran a doggy day care out of her home and I often assisted her. I have much experience in caring for animals and also handling behavioral problems. I am currently unemployed as I am preparing to begin my student teaching through Marshall this fall. My schedule is open, other than putting time aside to care for my own furry friends. I feel it is important to constantly ensure that the animal being cared for is comfortable. I plan to reassure your furry friends with positive reinforcement and playfulness. I also plan to uphold quality and safe measures while with the animals. I will make it a priority to send you pictures of your furry friend during my visit!


14. Hannah S.

“Hannah was great, there were some issues getting into my house while I was out of town and she went above and beyond to make sure she could make it inside to take care of my cat!!”


15. Abby T.
About: I’ve been around animals, specifically dogs, my whole life! I am relied on in my family to take them out and groom them. I have five overall, (one with anxiety, a senior, and one deaf), and they’re my best friends. I have a cat who we found outside and have helped her to acclimate to a new life, and a kitten I’m in the middle of training! I know plenty of games to entertain your pets, but I also cherish wind down time. I problem solve and adapt quickly so you never have to worry about your babies under my care! Animals are my greatest passion and I would LOVE to meet yours! I am currently a college student, but when I visit home I take my dogs outside to burn off some energy and play with them, and take them out again later on in the day! I regularly bathe and feed them as well. I play with my cat and clean her litter box, and she lives a life in luxury sleeping in my bed! My kitten is being trained carefully and taught a schedule, so this is an all day, everyday thing! I will give your pets all of the attention they have ever needed and keep them busy! I will crate them if needed and go on walks, bathe, and brush them. They will receive all of my love and care! I can even do quick visits just to let them outside.


16. Courtney H.
About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. For the past 6 and a half years, I have gained a wide base of experience working with dogs of all sizes and breeds. In 2019 I worked to train service dogs for those in need. From there, I went on to work at a local shelter where I maintained kennels, walked and played with the dogs, and even worked on training exercises with all of them. I successfully rehabilitated over a dozen dogs with major behavioral issues, including a rotty who went on to become a bomb detection dog! My love for dogs expanded to Vet-Med, where I have worked for over a year. I can perform CPR, properly and efficiently give medications, I can even bathe and do nail trims; but most importantly I can provide a fun and exciting environment for your pup - whether it’s dropping in to take them on an evening walk or keeping them while you enjoy your vacations! My main goal is to be flexible and convenient for YOU! I am between jobs at the moment, so my availability is open. I can board dogs week day or weekend, whichever you need. I can do house visits, drop-ins, and everything in between any day after 9am. If you need something earlier than that, message me and let’s work something out! I have a huge yard out in the country where your dog can get lots of exercise. I even have a long line in case your dog needs help staying close! I have a pup of my own, his name is Mr. Peanut and he’s a sweet, gentle old man. He loves other dogs, but doesn’t play much. He’d rather sit and watch his fellow friends play and he’ll be there to snuggle up with when it’s nap time. I also have 2 cats who are no stranger to dogs. They are a little shy at first, but when they come around they want all the puppy lovins!!

About: I was born and raised in the country, my papaw gave me my first dog when I was 5 years old who I named Charlie and told me that I was responsible for taking care of him. That's when I learned the friendship, love, and compassion that pets can behold. He was the 1st of many pets that I had, he lived till I was 17 and will always have a special place in my heart. Throughout my childhood to my teens, I took care of many animals usually dogs but there were cats, ducks, chicken, rabbits, fish, lizards, hamsters, and even befriended a bear cub once thinking it was a dog until my papaw realized and ran it off to prevent momma bear from coming our way. I guess you could say I have always been drawn to animals and I'm so excited for the opportunity to care for your pet, giving you peace of mind that they are receiving quality care. I recently decided to work from home so I could have more time to contribute to things I'm passionate about and one of the things I'm the most passionate about is caring for animals of all varieties. Starting out, I will be available 3 days a week but if there is enough interest generated, I will open my schedule up more. I will follow any and all care instructions given by the pet parent especially if there are any specific care instructions such as administering medications, avoiding allergies, and assisting with physical limitations. I will provide a safe yet fun and happy environment for your pet, making sure they are fed and hydrated while having lots of human interaction. It will be the next best thing to having their pet parent there with them. I can also communicate frequently with messages, pictures, and videos also giving you the peace of mind that you deserve.

19. Evan Hope B.
About: Over the years, I have built a reputation as a reliable and caring dog walker and pet sitter, looking after both small and big dogs for multiple friends and neighbors. My experience spans various breeds and temperaments, ensuring that each pet receives personalized attention and care. Whether it's a quick walk around the block or extended pet sitting services, I provide peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their furry friends are in good hands!

Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, and I take pride in being able to balance my responsibilities while providing exceptional care for your furry friends. My reliability and dedication ensure that your pets receive the attention and love they need, no matter how busy life gets! When taking care of a client's pet in their home, I make sure to follow their rules and wishes to the letter. I understand that every pet has its own routine and preferences, and I am committed to maintaining that consistency. From feeding schedules and walking routines to playtime and specific care instructions, I ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you're away. Your peace of mind is my top priority, knowing your furry friend is in familiar surroundings and well cared for.


20. Kenzie R.
About: Pets both furry and scaly make my heart full of joy, and there’s nothing I’d love to do more than take care of your baby or babies for you! I love to get out and walk, play, and have fun or even sit and cuddle depending on what your dog enjoys. All breeds and sizes are more than welcome. If desired I can even teach your baby how to sit and shake. These are my two current training skills but I plan on expanding my horizons and can even try to practice new tricks with your baby if desired. I assure you that when your baby is in my care they will receive the utmost love, care, and attention they need in order to be happy. I’m always caring for my own pets and have plenty of time to take care of yours as well! My puppies are friendly so no extra time is needed to make sure they’re not mean to your furbaby I let the pets play in the yard (monitored) and inside depending on different variables such as weather or need. Every pet will have toys to play with and be guaranteed to have fun.
