“First time using Rover and was so pleased with how helpful Kyle has been. He was fantastic with our cats for an entire week and followed my instructions beautifully. Highly recommend Kyle and will be using him for our future cat-sitting needs 😻😻”

“Saraelizabeth was absolutely amazing with both our dog and cat! She always worked out ways to keep them engaged even if the weather was bad and even got our grumpy elderly cat to come up and love on her and play with her so she is a total cat whisperer. Even all the crazy energy our dog has didn’t deter her and we are so happy we trusted her with our pets while we were on vacation.”


About: I've taken care of family pets and neighbors' dogs for several years, as well as cats and fish. I have experience with the Greater Birmingham Humane Society and my own dog for three years. I'm available and flexible, so I'm ready to help out whenever you and your furry friend need me! When I'm not helping with neighborhood pets, you'll likely see me and my dog out for walks or training. I believe in meeting dogs where they are at by responding to their energy levels. That may mean making sure they are comfortable during stressful situations or jumping in to play at higher energy times! My primary goal is to make sure they are safe and set up for success when you are not at home, so I am happy to employ specific care instructions. No two dogs are the same!
“Hannah was great and communicated well throughout, especially when there was an unexpected complication during her services. The cats were well cared for and house left clean. Will be using her again in the future.”

“Emily has been over for our pup twice now for drop in visits. She is super sweet and professional- our dog is always happy to see her and she is extremely flexible when she can be. We really do appreciate all her services- would highly recommend.”

“Isabelle has watched my cat before, and was just as communicative and amazing as last time! She gave me detailed updates, took great photos and videos, and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was taking great care of my cat! I would 100% recommend Isabelle to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!”

“Kyleigh was great with my two dogs! She was very quick to respond! She sent regular updates and pictures! I felt very confident that my dogs were well cared for! I booked her for a second time and she was great the second time too!”


About: Growing up with cats, dogs, and a turtle, I’ve always been an animal lover. Animals are my happy place. I have years of experience with lots of different temperaments and needs. From puppies and kittens, senior dogs and cats, the wild and excited, the shut down, scared or nervous, to everything in between. I am currently available weekdays and weekends for walks, playtime, and house sitting that meet your pets needs. I am also able to come for repeat walks/playtime during the day. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio where my dog loves to sunbathe and take in the scenery. We go on potty breaks and walks by leash with lots of sniff breaks (her favorite). In your home, depending on the style, I can play or supervise inside and outside fenced in play time. I will also take dogs on walks depending on your preference. I also love to give a treat after a good walk or playtime! Potty will always be picked up and dissuaded on walks. If waste needs to be cleaned during back yard time please let me know, I’m happy to keep your yard clean!
About: I’ve always had cats, and usually they were strays that we took in. As a teenager, I would pet sit for my neighbors frequently when they were out of town- cats and dogs! I had two dogs growing up. Now as an adult, I have 2 cats of my own, Sinclair (5yo male) and Petal (1yo female)! For most of June and July I will be free week days and weekends! Starting in August, I will be available in afternoons and on weekends. I am willing to spend time with your cats and dogs, play with them however needed, and I can take your dogs on long walks!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 7 years for some of my family, friends, and neighbors. I have tons of experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m a very active college student and athlete, so I love the opportunity to take long walks, playing fetch, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they deserve. I’m currently a college student on summer break a more than flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I’m more than willing able to do walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. Moreover, I’m committed to being very communicative and reliable, your pet is a part of your family, and deserves to be treated that way. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your needs and will always make sure your pet receives plenty of attention and care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are, of course, my top priorities. I will follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and household routines to the letter, treating the pets as if they were my own. I strive to always maintain a clean and safe environment especially during walks and outdoor activities. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I never rush the time to build that trust crucial to a healthy relationship.

About: I grew up with a cat of 14 years and later my family adopted a husky which stole our hearts! Since, I have cared for not only my sisters set of 2 beautiful golden retrievers since they were brought home but other dogs of clients and I currently live with a cat! I am currently a 4th year medical student at UAB. My clinical rotation schedule currently is extremely light for the month of February I after 12 PM. And through March April in the first half of May, I am pretty much fully free. Under my care, pets will be brought outside for a potty breaks or a walk only on a safe leash. No dogs will be brought anywhere near roads or construction where they could get injured.
About: Hi, my name is Kelsey! I have had pets my entire life and have experience with dogs and cats (and other animals, just ask!). I work full-time from home, so I will have plenty of time to stay with and pamper your pup! I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy and flexible, and I will make sure your pup is very happy while they are with me! If you do have any questions, please feel free to send me a message and ask! I have a flexible schedule that allows pups to have a great balance of relax and play time. While I’m a homebody and I work from home, I try my best to stick to your buddy’s normal schedule. I do try to go to the gym and errands, so I always try to coordinate the appropriate times to ensure I am able to give everyone a smooth time with me. I take tons of pictures paired with lots of updates on your buddy’s day while you’re away, so you can make sure they are comfortable and happy in their own environment. I always keep the house so clean it won't even feel like anyone was there after I leave!
“Sass did an excellent job taking care of our 2 cats! She was able to get 3 meds into our cat with her creative food mixtures! We recommend her highly and will use her again!”

“Devin took such excellent care of our 3 cats and ball python. Even our very shy kitty came out each day to spend time with her! Super highly recommended if your looking for someone to love your pets like you do while you’re away”

“Shelby was great! She sent me nightly photos and videos of my little dude while I was on vacation. I would absolutely ask her to watch my cat again! Great experience!”

Hannah did a great job taking care of my boys! This is my second time booking with her and I will definitely be booking again for future care. Hannah does a great job communicating, letting me feel at ease that my cats have the best possible care while I’m away.

Grace was an incredible addition to our home while we were away. She consistently posted updates and photos of our cats, which made me feel so much better about being away from them. She is reliable, trustworthy, and clearly cares deeply for the pets she watches. She kept them well fed, maintained the litter box, and gave us total peace of mind while we traveled. I would absolutely recommend Grace to anyone looking for someone to take great care of their pets.

Julianna was on time, kind, and patient with our cat. He is very timid around new people and we appreciate that she took her time with him and took care of his needs. This was the longest we’ve been away from our cat and we could tell he was doing well with each photo and feedback received!
