House Sitting Kushla

“Right off the batt, two words: HIRE DALTON! This young man exceeded every expectation of a pet/house sitter! We have a rescue pointer who can be pretty insecure. Dalton was so sweet, knowledgeable and patient that by day 2 of a week long pet sit, Buddy was completely at ease and happy. Dalton sent us updates every day with photos and details of their day. When we got home, the house was as if we never left, and he actually washed his bedding. Your pets will be in the best of hands and we simply cannot recommend him enough. We will be repeats for sure.”

About: Hi! I am a Biology student in my mid-20s in the process of obtaining my second bachelor's degree and working toward a career in animal conservation. Caring for animals has always been more than just a job to me. I've loved animals my whole life. I've had/cared for dogs and cats for over ten years. I have been pet-sitting professionally for friends, family, and others for the past five years. I've cared for animals of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your dog is full of energy and loves to play, enjoys long walks, or is a little shy or anxious, I'm happy to adjust my care to fit what makes them feel most comfortable. I know every dog is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personality and routine. I'm experienced with overnight stays, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, administering medications, and caring for homes with multiple pets. I always do my best to keep your pet's routine as normal as possible while you're away because I know that consistency helps them feel safe and comfortable. I'll also send plenty of photos, videos, and updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're gone. My goal is to treat every dog like they're my own—with patience, love, and lots of attention. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I'd love the opportunity to care for yours. Pet sitting fits naturally into my schedule because it's my main focus outside of school. I'm a Biology student, so while I do have classes during the week, I have plenty of flexibility before and after class, as well as on weekends and holidays. I will keep my calendar updated if any changes occur. I love spending my free time with animals, whether that's going for walks, playing with energetic pets, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible. I know pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any other special care they may need. I take the time to get to know each pet and adjust to their personality, whether they love to play, prefer quiet companionship, or need a little extra patience to feel comfortable. My priority is making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I also treat every client's home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep things clean, secure, and make sure your pet has everything they need. Throughout my visits or overnight stays, I'll send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Deanna was wonderful with Hero & all of his care needs while we were away. She took great care of Hero & our home. It was a big comfort to know that our fur baby was so comfortable. Deanna is such a reliable, attentive and very loving petsitter whom I highly recommend.”

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life and have a passion for animals. I regularly housesit for family who have three dogs (two small one large). I have experience with senior animals and am on time with medications. I am currently unemployed and start college in the fall. My classes are my main priority but I would like some money on the side. I have enough time between classes to do some “side quests”. I have lots of free time and would like to fill it with sweet babies. I can easily give commands to dogs in a non aggressive manner and can crate them. I’m an active person so lifting large animals or keeping a lead tight is easy. I have my own vehicle with no issues getting from point A to point B.

“Abigail did an excellent job staying at my house and taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we went out of town. She is very trustworthy and I really appreciated the daily photos!! I will call Abby next time for sure. Thanks Abby!!”

Corey D.

“Michael did an awesome job taking care of our fur babies! The pups were completely at ease around him and he did everything to make sure they were as happy and comfortable as possible. You can tell he really enjoys being around and caring for animals. He was also very conscientious of our home and kept up with our routines and instructions perfectly.”

Olivia H.

“Anna really helped us out this past weekend keeping our puppy for us in a hotel room while we had a few social events. We really appreciated her being so responsible and keeping our pup entertained. I would use her again. She was on time, friendly and very helpful. I didn’t have to worry at all while we were away!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, ranging from small medium and large, including senior dogs, walking, feeding, and generally taking care of pets. I have also cat-sit for friends and family changing littler boxes, and feeding cats. Waking, feeding, and generally taking care of pets I am currently in an online certification coarse and looking for part time employment, so I have plenty of time to look after and play with your pets. Please give me a weeks notice beforehand if you require any of my services so I can accordingly plan and block it into my schedule. I am very affectionate, patient, but firm with pets. But I understand that every animal is individual, and must be treated as such. I believe that consistent play time and structure is essential, and will maintain any structure that the pet/pet-owner requires, they are your pets after all.

“Maegan is amazing! She puts in So much effort to care for and bond with our pets! She gives detailed information regarding daily activities, so we have zero worries when we are away! We are glad glad we found her!”

About: I’ve been around all types of animals since birth; dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals. Etc. My friends call me the animal whisperer. I have that energy your pet will feel safe around. Currently I have 100% availability as I am new to the area from Central Colorado. As I try to lock down a job, I will be using my love for animals as a job to survive. In my clients home, I will follow any rules they have set in place when it comes to their pets. As far as feeding, treats, potty breaks, sleeping and being around other animals.

“Rachel was incredible with Stella! She was super communicative and reliable. 10/10 will be using again!!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that animal care has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mom serves on the Huntsville Animal Shelter Committee Board, and through her involvement, I have had the opportunity to work closely with animals from a young age. Our family has fostered countless animals over the years, specializing primarily in dogs and cats, but also helping a variety of other animals in need. Through fostering, I have gained experience caring for animals with all kinds of personalities, medical needs, and backgrounds. Some of the most rewarding experiences have been helping neglected and critically ill cats that arrived in extremely poor condition. With patience, proper care, and lots of love, we were able to nurse many of them back to health and help them find wonderful forever homes. Because of this experience, I am comfortable working with shy, anxious, senior, rescue, and high-energy pets. I understand that every animal is unique and deserves individualized care. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, basic training reinforcement, medication assistance, or simply someone who genuinely understands animals, I will treat them like part of my own family. My years of hands-on experience with foster animals have taught me how to recognize behavioral cues, provide compassionate care, and ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my life as a college student home on summer break. I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days and times, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and reliable care. I enjoy spending my free time doing small hobbies, but working with animals is something I’m truly passionate about and prioritize. This summer is a great opportunity for me to do something I love while continuing to build experience caring for a variety of pets, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for every animal whether it’s my own pets or someone else’s with genuine kindness, love, and passion. In my home, I create a calm and safe environment where animals feel comfortable, secure, and cared for like family. I pay close attention to their needs, routines, and personalities, making sure they are not only looked after but also genuinely understood. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, respect, and compassion, because I truly believe they deserve to feel loved and at ease while their owners are away.

“Amanda was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I will forever use her to watch my babies! She was wonderful and my puppies absolutely adored her! She sent me so many wonderful pictures and took such great care of them and not once did I have to worry about their well being! Thank you so so much and I can’t wait to praise your sitting to other families who are in need of someone caring to watch their babies!”

About: I have plenty of experience when it comes to caring for dogs, especially big dogs (as a great dane owner). Feeding, walking, cleaning up after them, and even training them. Taking care of multiple pets at a time is no problem! I am currently a college student who only has classes in the mornings so my afternoons and nights are free. If needed, I am available to wake up early before my classes to care for your pets. I will ensure that all animals are accounted for and taken care of. I will make sure all doors are shut and everything is in order. It’s very important to keep anything dangerous out of site and stay alert while caring for animals.

“William was great with my cat! Super communicative and understanding when my plans changed. My pet just loved him. Would recommend to anyone.”

Grace F.

“I can’t thank Sara enough for taking such wonderful care of my Yuki while I was on a 7-day trip to Europe. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and safe. When I came home, my Yuki was relaxed and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter—I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I have been in-house pet sitting for 8 years now. What started as a college side gig has now turned into my side job business. After years of getting referrals by word of mouth, I recently, in 2026, decided to go public with my business! So that brings me to Rover! 🐾 I believe pet care is about more than just a task of feeding, potty breaks, and walks. I have always had a deep love for animals and making sure they feel LOVED. When you choose me as your sitter, your pets become my bonus-furbabies, and I love them as if they were my own! I learn your pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they receive love and care that is tailored to them. A lot of my clients are repeat clients, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality. As the owner of Paws & Relax Pet Staycation, I value building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I know how important communication is, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel cared for and comfortable in their home, and for you to return home knowing that they were treated like family. I currently work full-time near Grelot Rd. and University Blvd. When you hire me as your in-home pet sitter, my goal is to spend as much time as possible at your home with your pets, seamlessly blending their care with my workday schedule. I also provide overnight stays to ensure your pets have companionship throughout the night, keeping their usual routine completely intact and stress-free! If your home is within 15 to 20 min from my workplace, a midday visit is available for a potty break for your pets. I only provide pet sitting inside the client's home, as I believe pets do best in their own familiar surroundings. I always schedule a Meet & Greet at least two weeks before your trip so I can meet your pets with you there—that way, I’m a friend walking through the door on day one, not a stranger. While I'm visiting, we’ll fill out a personalized care sheet together. We'll map out everything from feeding schedules and medications to their favorite games, daily habits, and emergency info, ensuring they get the exact care they're used to.

About: Hi! I’m Linda, and I’ve always loved animals and the comfort, personality, and joy they bring into our lives. I’m dependable, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets — whether that’s going for walks, giving them attention during drop-in visits, or simply helping them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi, so I understand how important reliability, communication, and trust are. I’m looking to offer flexible evening and weekend pet care and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and extra attention to help both you and your pet feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi and have availability during evenings, weekends, and some daytime hours on work-from-home days. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits are a great fit for my schedule and lifestyle I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get attention, exercise, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of care and patience. I also understand how important communication is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits.

About: Hey y’all! I took a break from pet sitting due to my full time job at the clinic but I’ll be back as of 6/5/26💜Animals have always been part of my life. As a teenager I used to do volunteer work with dog shelters/cat sanctuaries, and I currently have 3 years experience as a kennel technician/vet assistant in a clinic setting. As a stay at home parent/wife, I have a flexible schedule to focus on providing care and attention for your fur babies. (Pets with indoor crate/pen training are a plus in case I have to leave the home during the day at any point to ensure your pets safety) I have recently decided to start working from home, so i am able to provide quality time and attention for your pet while they are in my care. (My weekends are mostly open, but during the summer months we spend a lot of time on the lake/river, so it’s also a plus if you have a dog that loves the water. My dachshund would love a boating buddy!) I have a large, shaded fenced in yard where your pets can freely run and play. When your pets are in my care, they are treated the same as my own. My couch is their couch, and if they want to burrow under the covers or at the foot of the bed, mine will just have to scoot on over and make some extra room, haha. Above I mentioned that crate trained pets are a plus for any time during their stay I have to leave the house. My dachshund is a known chewer/scavenger, so she stays in a large indoor pen if I have to leave the house and it has become a safe space for her.
