Mary went above and beyond caring for my kitties! Even the most skittish of the bunch ended up loving her. I didn’t have to worry for one second about the quality of care that they were getting!

Incredible sitter! Kayla is so sweet and patient. My dog is anxiety and she was able to win her over and took amazing care of her. I already have plans to use Kayla again.

Hannah is amazing! We booked Hannah for drop in visits for 5 cats during the week of Thanksgiving. Usually, we have family check on our kitties while away and have never used any type of pet sitting service so we were a bit nervous. Hannah visited a few days before our departure to meet the kitties and get the lay of the land. She was so friendly and sweet and spent time connecting with each cat (except our very timid Mali who wouldn't come out from her hiding spot) and asking lots of questions about their care. She really put both my husband and I at ease and we knew then our crew was in good hands. We received a notification everytime a visit started and then pictures and updates on the cats at the end of every visit. Hannah even kept watch on a humidifier we leave running for our plants and filled as needed. Our overall experience with Hannah was excellent and we will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future!

Sara responded quickly to my messages and my same day request to check on my dog. She helped me with the mess my dog had made chewing up a floor mat. Sara messaged me to tell me what happened and I was able to get her help with everything that day. I’m so appreciative that she was able to help me out that day.

Sydney took care of our cats while we were out of town and it couldn’t have been a better experience. I got daily updates and pictures, and she did everything I asked her to do, and what the cats demanded, lol! I won’t hesitate to ask her to petsit again, and would recommend her highly!

About: I have over a year of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from playful, high-energy pups to gentle senior dogs. I previously worked for a small dog walking business in the Birmingham area, where I provided both daily walks and drop-in visits. During walks, I made sure each pup was safe, happy, and exercised. I understand every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I always tailor my care to make sure they feel comfortable and loved. As a college student, I am able to fit pet care into my weekly routine at times most sitters can’t. I’m able to do morning and midday walks and drop-ins, and I will work with my clients to find the best times for their pup’s needs. I provide care in my client’s homes to keep pets comfortable in their own environment. During walks, I make sure the dogs get a balance between exercise and safety. For drop in visits, I handle feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to make sure each pet keeps their normal routine.

About: I’ve been a teacher/artist for 25 years. I enjoy walking dogs and consider it the best way to exercise! During school breaks and summer I am 100% available to love on your pet! During the school year I can walk/visit before and after school hours and again before bedtime. I love animals but I’m too scared to get attached to one of my own so I’ve come here to help others take care of theirs. As an artist, most of my commissions are pet portraits and it absolutely feeds my soul...they are definitely members of the family and not just pets. I would love the opportunity to help with your pet to keep from having to board them at a vet...no fear of kennel cough from me! Just send me a message with your requests and we will work something out. Before school, after school and in the evening I am available I follow your instructions for care to the letter. I talk to your animals like they are little people and treat them like they are mine.

Kennedy came by for drop in visits for 6 days. It was our first occasion to use Kennedy. She was everything we could have hoped for. She showed up every day at the agreed time window. We were notified every time she arrived and when she left. She was always there past the 30 minute visit time. We will rest easy the next time we need pet care and Rover will be my first thing I use to contact Kennedy. Thank you so much Kennedy for taking care of us! Love, Joe, Gus and Jaq (R&B too)
