“Julia was wonderful with our dogs, and her communication was excellent throughout the entire process. She was incredibly patient, quickly bonded with them, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets. We highly recommend Julia and would gladly have her care for our dogs again! Shannon”
About: I am super flexible and comfortable with dog care. I currently have an energetic young german shepherd so I understand the importance of dogs getting lots of exercise so that they can relax throughout the day. The main breeds I have experience with are Labs/Retrievers, German Shepherds, Beagles, Mixed Breed herding dogs, and Horses! I understand when dogs want to play and when they need their own space to relax. I currently have a german shepherd that I exercise twice a day either by walking, hiking, fetching or chasing hose water. Typically, I do one of these activities in the morning and one in the evening. My dog is free fed throughout the day, but I am familiar with dogs that prefer the routine of scheduled feeding or don't have self control, so I am comfortable following the routine that the dog is used to. I have a great walkable neighborhood, but I am very familiar with great places to walk and hike with dogs throughout the city. I am a grad student with lots of flexibility so my schedule is different from week to week, during the summer I will have lots of time each day to spend with your pup, but during the year I will provide excersize but less one-on-one time. I have a fenced in yard and a 1900 square foot home with hard surfaced floors. I don't allow my dogs on furniture, but if your dog is used to it, that is not currently a concern. My fences are sturdy and chain link, and about four feet tall. I prefer dogs that are crate trained overnight, and am happy to provide my own crates for them to sleep in. If they are not, I would happy to set up a play pen environment for them to be in!
About: If I were to be asked my superpower of choice, I’d tell you I already have one. Never in my 23 years of life have a met an animal I couldn’t work with, including the mean old cat my mother inherited. I take pride in my work of taking care of animals, and find it equally as rewarding seeing pet parents not have to worry about their babies in my care. From juggling my own zoo at home, to being introduced into the Pet Care business as a teenager working at an equestrian barn, I have honed my skills at prioritizing the wellbeing of animals and their happiness. With a bleeding heart and nerves of steel, I will love your pets as much as you do. I will clean their messed with understanding, play with them to enrich their brains, note any worrying conditions or details to you with urgency, and overall be the sitter you’d wish to hired again and again. My schedule is open and booked first come first served. 24 hours minimum notice before time of service as well. My long term plans are to start school again in the spring to further my education and professionalism working with animals, but until then pet sitting is my first priority. Working with horses, I’ve developed a patient and calm disposition towards aggressive or scared behaviors. I try not to overwhelm any animal, and allow them to grow accustomed to my presence before I take part in whatever needs to be done. Meeting with said pets for the first time is a bit tricky, but I make it a habit for the first meeting to be with owners before services are rendered so both the client and myself are sure the animal(s) will be ok.
About: I have grown up with dogs for my entire life and I now have a cat of my own. I have taken care of friends and families animals in the past and I am very reliable, caring, and friendly. Animals bring me so much joy and I treat any animal as if it were my own. I am working in a salon four days out of the week but I will be available in the mornings and the evenings of any day to provide attention to your pet. Given that I have a cat of my own, I know how angry and hurt I would be if I put her in the care of someone else and she was neglected. With that being said, you can trust that I will not put you in that position! Animals are innocent and unable to communicate their needs. Not only will I provide the essentials, I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable!
“Zoe was great with Polly - and I know that Polly appreciated the walks and interaction while still getting new to her new home. Zoe was also flexible on meeting before the Dog Walking to get to know Polly. Thanks Zoe!!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I love animals so much they are family, I have a golden retriever and a great Bernice mountain dog. I am good with big and small dogs. I also have owned cats and know how to take care of them! I know how to walk, bath, feed, and make animals feel safe and loved. I am a student at the university of Alabama. I have class from 9 to 1 but after that I am free. I can also go before class and on the weekends I am available! Animals are so important so I would make time to let them out walk and take care of with my class schedule. I can play with dogs in the yard or in the house. Go on long or short walks based on the weather. Keep them company so they don’t feel alone and make sure they feel loved and cared for at their home.
About: I’ve always had such a huge love for animals and have been surrounded by dogs my entire life! I grew up in a household with multiple dogs, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my everyday routine. I’ve also worked with local animal shelters, which has given me experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have a yellow Lab named Ollie, who I’ve raised since he was a puppy! I have tons of hands-on experience with feeding, walking, potty training, basic training, administering daily care, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I’m always happy to adjust to their routines. I truly treat every animal like family and would love the opportunity to give your pets the same love, patience, and attention I give my own! I have a pretty flexible schedule since I only have a few in-person classes and take the rest online. Because of that, I’m free most of the day and can easily plan my time around pet care. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or spending extra time with them, I’m able to be consistent and present. I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own space by sticking to their normal routine. I’ll follow all instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medications if needed. I make sure they get plenty of attention and care so they don’t feel stressed while you’re gone. I also treat your home with respect and keep everything clean and as you left it.
“I high recommend Rachel, she was outstanding! She provided great photos and updates while we were out of town and adjusted the walk schedule based on the summer temperatures and our dog ability to walk long distances. She agreed to do a pre-visit to ensure all communication was clear. Her communication was quick and responsive to me each step along the way. We will definitely book her again. Thanks Rachel!!!”
“Ansley did wonderful walking my senior furbaby! She is professional, courteous, pleasant, and accommodating. My boy warmed up to her quickly and they were able to forge a good bond. I look forward to her continuing to walk, care for, and interact with my furbaby.”
About: I’ve had pets in my home my entire life! Multiple dogs and at least one cat at a time. We have fostered many puppies and dogs some were medically fragile through our local humane society. As a child I learned how to be responsible for my pets and all their daily care. I am excited to meet your pets because I miss being around my own pets since I’m 4 hours from home and they are truly like one of our family members! I’m a full time student at the University of Alabama so I’m able to fit in pet care around my classes!! My classes are primarily in the morning!! I would communicate the pets needs with the owner to ensure I can provide the same care and attention they receive when their owner is at the home with them!
About: Whether your pet towers over your countertop or can fit in your purse, I’ve taken care of them all. Cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes - I have had the opportunity to take care of these animals with all the love! As a cat and dog owner myself, I know first-hand what it is like to put trust into someone when you need help or have to leave.. it's scary! That is why I strive to provide the service you would do yourself if you were home, send lots of photos, give lots of snuggles, and love on your pets as my own! I am a full-time PhD Student and Instructor at The University of Alabama, but I have quite the flexible schedule. If you need a service, I will make it work to fulfill you and your pets' needs! Your pet is at the forefront of my routine. If your pup needs a walk, we will go on two. Your cat needs cuddles? I’ll be there until they get tired of me. I will treat your babies as my own because they deserve it!
About: I have always had a huge spot in my heart for animals and I wish I could help every single one in bad situations. I have always known I wanted to work in Veterinary Medicine so currently I work at a clinic as a Veterinary assistant training to be a licensed Veterinary Technician !! I have so much experience with animals from puppies/kittens to senior dogs/cats including their different needs and type of care and can’t wait to learn even more!! *If possible, I do request proof of up to date vaccinations and preventions (flea, tick, heartworm and worm)* Since moving to Tuscaloosa, I’ve gotten a job at a vet clinic and my boyfriend (Mason) attends UA. He loves animals just as much as I do and we will always have them in our home! Our schedules are very flexible and someone is almost always home:) My dog Tug is a GSP (German shorthair pointer) and is absolutely rotten! He loves going to the dog park and is very friendly and loves meeting new people and friends!! With that being said we can always take them to the dog park if allowed and play with them in the backyard and definitely go get pup cups! I will not be alone any of the time for my safety and the animals safety, I will always have help and support!
About: I have been dog sitting since my teenage years for family, friends, neighbors, and repeat clients. I always send frequent photo and video updates to give you complete peace of mind. I also have hands-on experience administering oral medications safely and on schedule. Your pup’s safety, routine, and comfort are always my top priorities! With my highly flexible schedule it will be easy for me to give your fur babies the love, time, and attention they deserve and are used to! Your pets will be safe and sound at home with me! I tailor my care to their personality, giving them all the love and attention they're comfortable with!
About: I have had a dog for years now. I left to go to college years ago and left my dog with my parents. I miss having pets around extremely. I have experience bathing, walking. playing with, and loving on dogs. I can do anything at your request. My schedule is very open as I am an online student at Alabama. My schedule does change weekly as I do have a part time job, but also make my own hours so I can accommodate. I will ensure to give your pets my full attention. I understand being paid for something your pets deserve the best of the best. I will be on time, feed, walk, and give any medications needed to your fur babies.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, from the neighborhoods dog to good friends. I also breed French bulldogs and very knowledgeable on welping litters. I currently work remotely from home, so I'll be at home majority of the day with your fur baby to give them 100% of my attention. I prioritize pet care by meeting their needs. Daily picture and video updates are sent of your fur baby. Trust is key—I maintain a safe environment free of harmful substances. Additionally, I promote exercise and mental stimulation for their well-being.
About: Hi! My name is Adrian, and I've been around dogs and cats for most of my life. I grew up helping care for large dogs and have always been the person my family relies on to feed, play with, and look after our pets. I especially love large breeds and enjoy spending time outdoors, playing, and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust so they feel comfortable and safe while you're away. I'll treat your pets with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'm currently very flexible and have plenty of availability throughout the week for house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks. Because my schedule is open, I can dedicate plenty of attention to your pets instead of rushing between commitments. I communicate regularly, send photo updates, and always make sure owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. For everyone's safety and comfort, I currently only offer care in my client's home. My family dog is not comfortable around unfamiliar animals, so I don't provide boarding in my own home. When caring for pets in your home, I carefully follow your routines, make sure fresh water is always available, maintain feeding and bathroom schedules, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular photo updates so you can relax while you're away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a clean home

I can’t say enough good things about Savannah. My pugs love her! She does what she says she will do, and she takes them on nice long walks. She also spends time playing with them. She makes the booking and planning so easy. We use her on a weekly basis. I feel better about going to work when I know she is taking care of my pups.
