1. Lauren M.


“Lauren did a great job looking after my chickens and ducks! It was a relief to know that they were in good hands with someone who truly cared about their well being. Thank you, Lauren, we appreciate it!”


2. Bekah H.

“Bekah was so wonderful with both of our cats! The pictures were adorable and I could tell both Ann (the usually hesitant older kitty) and George (the rambunctious young kitty) we’re both comfortable and happy during her visits! Wonderful care! Will definitely be asking Bekah to care for them again!”


3. Mollie F.

“Mollie is fantastic and I would recommend to anyone that she was absolutely perfect for my Chow Chow! Mollie, thank you so much and I will definitely use you next time!”


4. Retta S.
“I've paid Retta to watch over my dogs a plethora of times. She's taken care of them while I've been at work and for multiple days when I have to go out of town. They adore her to death, and honestly, I wouldn't pick anyone else to watch over them. She's trustworthy, caring, and follows all instructions, which is particularly important since the chihuahua has a number of food and outdoor allergies. I recommend that anyone that needs someone to watch over her pets to choose Retta.”


5. Ambree L.
“Ambree has watched my dogs on numerous occasions and she's the best! My dogs love her, she's super patient with them and truly loves and cares about them and it reflects in her care. She has a really big yard and it's fenced so I don't have to worry about my dogs getting out and she takes a lot of precautionary measures to ensure that they have the upmost care. The daily updates and pictures also offer a piece of mind! You really won't regret using her!”


6. Anna I.


“Anna took great care of my dog doing drop-in visits and notified me with pictures and provided updates. I would definitely use her services again. Thank you Anna!”


7. Natalie I.

“Natalie was great with Harper while I was out of town. I would highly recommend her!”


8. Meaghan & Johnny L.
“I've watched Meaghan and Johnny raise their three children and their three pets. Their home is nurturing and loving with lots of patience. They've watched my dog Zoe on multiple occasions, and it's much better for Zoe than boarding is. When I was suddenly admitted to the hospital in North Carolina, Meaghan drove almost six hours at night to pick up Zoe from being alone in my cabin! You won't find better people or a better environment to entrust your pets with.”


9. kattie y.
“I have a Great Dane and a Great Dane mix that Kattie used to care for while I was away for work or business trips. Although they were bigger dogs, Kattie did great with them! She gave them around the clock care when needed and never once "forgot" or "accidentally" missed an appointment to be at the house to get them/care for them. I would recommend her to any and everyone! She has a caring soul for animals and has a very positive upbeat attitude which is hard to find these days.”

About: Follow us on Facebook at Doggone Good Pet Services located in Decatur, AL! I’ve owned and cared for many fur babies in all shapes, sizes, breeds and I’ve enjoyed taking care of animals all of my life. My husband has always told me if I could have an animal sanctuary I would take in every single animal I came across. I worked as a veterinarian assistant before I became a full time stay at home mom. Since I am home all day with my two year old, I will have plenty of time on my hands to give love to your babies. I’m at home all day except 10-15 minutes out of the day to pick my kids up from school. Each and every fur baby will always be treated like family I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to play and roam. Anytime I would have to leave the house, I always make sure all dogs are separated to ensure nothing happens while I’m gone. No need to bring toys, blankets, crates, beds, bowls, etc, I have all on site and make sure they’re cleaned and sanitized every day. My own fur babies are a 6 year old chocolate lab, and two 1 year old French bulldogs and a 8 month old French bulldog. They all stay indoors and ready to meet some new furry friends!


11. Kayla J.

“Kayla was lovely with my special little guy. Excellent communication and care for his special needs during her drop in visits. Highly recommended!”


12. Kayleigh N.

“This is the best experience I have had on Rover! Kayleigh did an amazing job caring for our cat and dog. She is knowledgeable and made our fur babies feel loved!”


13. Kristen H.
About: I've helped care for all kinds of animals, from baby chicks to horses since I was a little girl. I had my first dog about 15 years and he was like my baby. I currently have a chihuahua and mixed breed (Italian greyhound/jack Russell) I brought home from Italy. I can care for birds, fish, and reptiles as well. I'll even feed your chickens. I have 4 years of experience fostering puppies and dog sitting as well. I'm flexible on hours. I love to go on walks, play, and make it a fun day! Pets are family and I would care for yours like they were my own. While following any instructions you give, I'll ensure your pet is safe and accommodated at all times. I'm a student and homeschooling mom, so I'm flexible on time. I play fetch a couple times a day with my own pets and work on simple commands with rewards. I make sure my pets feel loved and cared for. With guidance on how you'd like me to care for your pet, I can be accommodating. If your dog plays well with others, and you are looking for boarding, I have a large fenced in yard and a safe neighborhood for walks. I can follow your feeding schedule, no matter if it's dry, wet, or raw foods. I can come morning or afternoons, or both if you need me to come to your home.

They also sleep beside her most nights! She grew up on a working farm with part of her responsibility was tending to the animals. She has never met a dog that didn't like her.”

About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have had the opportunity to care for many breeds of dogs from Maltese to pitbulIs. Our family dog is a blue heeler who is always down for a game of fetch we spend hours together outside. I watch dogs for family and friends when they are out of town I make sure when they return home everything is tidy and thier furry friend is full of love . I've also worked in the professional setting at a doggy daycare giving me the chance to learn about the many different dog breeds and thier traits . I am very flexible with open availability in the afternoons and evenings . I'm always willing to work with a client to make sure thier furry friend is taken care of and given the attention they deserve! I am unable to watch cats due to a severe allergy. Dogs must be COMPLETELY potty trained. (With the exception of senior or special needs animals ) I will provide pet care in the clients home. I will happily send picture and video updates of your puppy pal. I will gladly play with them and thier favorite toys and give them the extra snuggles they need while they are missing you !
