“Talhia was excellent!! She provided regular updates, sent numerous photos, and made the entire process seamless. I look forward to utilizing her services again in the future. Thank you!!”
“My family and our dog met Jennifer before my dog’s 2 night stay. I was confident that my dog would be well taken care of during my weekend trip. Jennifer also gave me some advice on some things I need to work on with my dog. She has been an only dog, so I was happy that she was able to be around other dogs during her stay. I highly recommend Jennifer. Thank you you for meeting with us before her visit and allowing her into your home.”
“Larissa took care of our dog Jace for three days. On the first day, she texted me to let me know that Jace was acting nervous around the other dogs. She told me that she is giving him all the extra love and attention that she can! She did this while caring for the other dogs and her newborn baby. Larissa even gave Jace a bath after he threw up on himself. Larissa sent me pictures of Jace cuddling with her and her mom during the trip and put me at ease about his anxiety. Jace finally felt comfortable and began to relax and started playing with the other dogs. I highly recommend Larissa and will book her again. THANK YOU LARISSA!!”
“Anna is always wonderful with my Nahla. This is my second time having Nahla board with her. She’s very accommodating and sends updates daily. I love that Nahla enjoys their fenced backyard!! She goes in happily every time seeing Anna!”
“Chelsea was amazing! She was available last minute to watch our dachshund and was very kind! She sent multiple updates including pictures and videos. Frank loved his time hanging out with her and her doggos!”
About: I have 5+ years of experience in pet sitting and am a huge animal lover! I have two cats of my own, and have fostered about a dozen kittens and cats from shelters. I love interacting with dogs and cats of any size and personality, and enjoy dog walking as well. I have volunteered at the Humane Society cat house, as well as walk dogs through the Metro Animal Shelter happy hour. I would love to spend time with your pets and am committed to providing them a safe environment, as well as sending updates and pictures while you are away so you know they are in goods hands. I am currently a UAB medical student living in Tuscaloosa. I currently have a flexible schedule in my fourth year, and most of my weekends are completely open as well as some weekdays. I will ensure that my calendar stays updated routinely with availability. I am fully willing to tailor my pet-sitting for you and your pets needs! I am very flexible as far as needs for feeding, walking, etc and check ins at your home. Love going to the Tuscaloosa riverwalk for dog walking! Your pet can also stay in my home if needed! I live in a house with two adult cats so I prefer that your pet be cat-friendly, but I also have an extra bedroom where your furbaby can stay if separation is needed. My house has a walking trail and lake behind it which is perfect for dogs. My cats have been introduced to many foster pets over the years!
“She was great. House was clean, doggie updates were adorable and pups came home happy and bathed. Be really specific on pick up and drop off times well in advance and this is a perfect sitter”
“Lauren took great care of our three fur babies. They were happy and healthy when we arrived back from our trip. Her little pup is a sweetheart and together they made our dogs a welcome part of their pack. She has a fabulous fenced yard. Highly recommended.”
“Highly recommend!! Morgan sent me photos and videos throughout the entire weekend and my dog was always playing and having fun. Her dogs were playing with my lab all weekend. I felt very comfortable knowing he was in good hands and will absolutely book with Morgan again!”
About: I have experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I’m really good at picking up on their needs. I’m patient with training, gentle with older pets, and always go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe and loved. I treat every animal like family and take pride in being dependable and caring. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days around each pet’s needs to ensure they receive consistent, personalized attention. Mornings typically begin with feeding, walking, or checking in on pets who stay overnight or require morning visits. Midday is often dedicated to dog walks or drop-in visits, especially for pets who need a bathroom break, medication, or company while their owners are at work. Follow the pet’s regular feeding schedule, including any medications. Provide fresh water at all times. Take dogs on walks or let them out as needed. Keep cats’ litter boxes clean and odor-free. Stick to the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. Spend quality time with pets through play, affection, and attention.
About: I've been training small puppies with basic dog commands and crate training since 2014. I started my petting-sitting services in Berkeley, California. I love to walk, feed, bathe, and love puppies. I recently bought a house in Reform, Alabama, and I welcome my fur friends to join my Havanese AKC Woody Ivy and me. I'm currently in my Ph.D. program at The University of Alabama. I mostly attend classes twice a week while I am on campus. On the days I am not attending class, I am at home spending quality time with my puppy, gardening, and doing fun things around my house. I believe in constantly transitioning and supervising my puppy, offering different activities day and night. We have a routine that starts at 6 am. He goes potty and has the liberty to sniff trees or go back to sleep. He eats breakfast at 7 am, goes for a walk at 8 am and 6 pm CT (4 pm CST), plays until nap at 11a, lunch/snack at 1p, plays with toys until he is ready to play fetch, and is obedient training outside, and then we people watch on our porch (which he loves to do) while I read. We do everything together! And when the night is young, he goes to bed inside his crate, next to my bed, at 9 (ish) to rest up for another day of play.
“She is definitely the best!! She gave updates throughout the day/night and almond with Pictures of our fur baby!!! If you’re looking for a safe and loving home booked with Ainsley!!!!”
“Julie did an amazing job taking care of my kitty! I needed someone on really short notice to take him for over a week and I was really nervous giving him to someone I didn’t know. My expectations were beyond exceeded. I got multiple pictures a day and didn’t have a single worry while I was away. I will definitely be booking again in the future!!”
