1. Bethany A.
“Bethany was super communicative and followed all of the instructions I left. She took care of our two cats and crazy 2 year old lab puppy and wasn’t phased by her high energy and need for play. I will use her services again in a heartbeat. So thankful.”
2. Joan C.
“Joan did an amazing job watching our two pups while we were out of town. She sent us a lot of pictures and updates while we’re gone. She gave our dogs a lot of attention and is a responsible, trustworthy person. I would highly recommend her.”
3. Audrey T.
“My two girls had a wonderful time with Audrey while I was out of town over the weekend. They are very energetic German Shorthair Pointers and Audrey kept them exercised and safe. She sent texts, picture, and video updates. We will definitely book Audrey again for our dogs.”
4. Valarie K.
“Valarie was awesome! She took care of our girls while we were gone and was especially patient with our skittish chihuahua. We will definitely book with her again!”
5. Jean J.
“Jean was a wonderful sitter for our Pug and Bugg! They were worn out from all of the attention and exercise, and seemed very content when we got home. While the dogs are the obvious priority, Jean also took beautiful care of our home. We would never have known that anyone was there except it might have been cleaner than we left it! We highly recommend Jean for all of your dog sitting needs ?”

“Charlie’s love for animals is incredible. He cares for all as his own. He has an eye for detail and such a great understanding of dogs.”
9. Sarah P.
“Sarah was a wonderful choice for our two 20 yr old cats. She took EXCELLENT care of them, to include giving medicine to Tiglet 2x a day. She gave updates twice daily, to include pictures of our babies. She kept the litter box clean, and cleaned up after Tiglet, who can only use pee pads, which is above and beyond. She even brought in our mail, and rolled the garbage to the curb on trash day. My girls were in good hands. 100% recommend Sarah!”
10. Emily S.
“Emily was the BEST person I could have asked to keep my fur babies. She was very attentive when I told her our routine with them and didn’t miss a beat. It was the first time I had left my dogs alone with somebody else so I was super nervous and she handled all of my many messages with grace. She took care of my babies just like I would have and I know that they were loved beyond measure while I was away. If there was a star rating on here, she gets 11!”

I treat them as if they were my own. I have watched five dogs at a clients home for one month. Those dogs still know me because I go back and visit. I am a single woman living in Orange Beach. I live in an apartment so I cannot have my own dogs. I love dogs a lot. The photos I have provided are not my dogs, but I go and visit them still and they love me and I love them. If I’m staying at your house in the area, I will leave for work and then come home. Take care of Your pet babies by walking them, feeding them playing with them and I hope cuddling with them I don’t have any pets of my own, but if I see a dog in public, you can be sure that I’m gonna walk up to the owner and ask if I could say hi and then I proceeded to tell him “they’re good dogs”

18. Taylor W.
About: I have taken care of dogs of various sizes and ages for many year. As well as reptiles, birds, cats, and fish. Pets are my passion! I also volunteer for a rescue and foster! I have a very flexible schedule so I can accommodate anything you may need! I own my own business as well so I create my own schedule. All that being said, I will have plenty of time for your fur-babies! I have a fenced in yard and 2 kiddos that love animals just as much as I do! I also have the means to kennel if needed and separate from my pets and kids.

About: I have 27 years of experience. Haha I've only been alive for 27 years but you get the jist! I've had dogs my whole life! At the current time I have 5 dogs: a Golden Retriever, Bernadoodle, Black Lab, Boxer and a Bulldog. Totally down to come at random times throughout the day to take care of your pups and house sitting is totally okay with me to! I love any pup big or small! The first 10 years of my life I grew up with a Dalmatian named Lancey he was the perfect dog I loved him so much! You're puppers will be safe with me :) In the afternoon or on weekends works better for me. I work during the day from 9 until 5 so it is better before work and after!!! Exactly how the owner wants me to :)!! I only have one dog at my home with me currently! My Boyfriend and I love puppers! Send them our way!
20. Caitlin K.
“Caitlin is AWESOME! We have 2 large dogs that can be a lot to handle but she made us feel very comfortable that our dogs and our home would be well looked after. She is polite, thoughtful, and did everything we needed-plus some. Our dogs are usually exhausted and anxious when they come home from a boarding facility, but this time, they were just happy to see us and seemed like their normal selves! We will be booking her again very soon.”
