Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Larkspur, Mobile, AL

“I have used Amelia’s services multiple times now. My cats are getting quite used to her. Normally they hide but they come out for her every time which makes me very happy. Everything is neat and tidy and taken care of while I’m gone and I know that my cats are in good hands. Thank you so much. I will definitely book you again!”

Jennifer A.

“Grateful that we chose Isabella for our girls! We have a very shy pup that warmed up to her quickly, and a high energy one that got lots of play time! She gave lots of updates and pictures. We will definitely have Isabella watch our girls in the future!”

Brenna N.

“Incredible sitter!! Excellent communication, incredible pictures, top-notch care of our fur babies, and detailed descriptions of the visits. She even gave them Christmas cookie treats and swept up their mess. Couldn't be happier!!”

“Meagan was very good at giving our guinea pigs love and attention. Kept them well fed and happy. They loved her as she spoiled them. We will use Meagan as our new babysitter whenever we need one.”

About: My household has always had a furry friend in it since the day I was born from small ankle biters like Chihuahuas to hefty cuties like my current Bully Pit that I can safely wrestle in some horseplay. Puppies, seniors, we don't discriminate 'round here! I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have small experience in clicker training younger pups along with an energy to match whichever personality I'm given. A boundless Collie? We can play all day! A sleepy old Bassett? We can chill with some TV. I'm not above being put to work either. Give me a litter box to clean. Give me medicine and I'll make sure it's getting swallowed. Toss a cat my way as well why doncha? I worked as a cat caretaker during my fall and spring semesters in Auburn University, as well as own a lovely kitten named Autumn, so having a feline to shake things up would be a nice treat! Trust me, my hands have a good pain tolerance. Beyond that, I know it costs major bucks to look after your pets. Or pay someone ELSE too. Sometimes a week stay for a pet can run up to $500! That's why you come to me. I offer affordable rates because I'm more concerned with the passion than the money. I have multiple pets of my own and I know the chip they can put in my wallet just from vet visits! So I won't let it get in your way! 🤠 I've graduated happily from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Sciences and am settling into a new job. This means that while I'm happy to take on new clients, my schedule is sporadic as it's determined on a weekly basis. It also means I will be gone for many hours at a time. My current work schedule and thus how long I'd be busy for July 14-20 is: Mon: 4-9:30 pm Tue: Free Wed: Free Thurs: 9 am-5 pm Fri: 5-9:30 pm Sat: 1-9:30 pm Sun: Free Safety is a non-negotiable when it comes to our furry friends. Just like I do with my own pals, I stay by them at all times when outside and encourage their attention with toys or loving scritches when they're not doing their business. If push comes to shove, I am capable of safely wrestling an overzealous dog into calming down or tightening the 'ol leash if need be. With cats, responsibly scruffing rarely fails. Inside, unless stated otherwise where they're allowed to park themselves, I stay with my little friends on the floor and can crate them if specified to do so when it's bedtime. If they're free roamers, I let them tag along where I go! Except the kitchen.

“Lizzy was great with peanut and provided helpful updates to let me know that he is okay. She was very helpful in assuaging my fears about my dog staying home.”

“Nikki was very nice. I enjoyed talking to her. She seems to know a lot about cats. Looking forward to her staying with my cat River.”

Bonnie G.

“I'm very happy with how my two dogs were cared for. One has a persistent problem with one of his ears, and she was very consistent with looking after it and giving him his medication when needed. Probably more consistent than I am normally. Usually by the time I get home his infection has gotten worse and requires a lot of attention to get it back under control. But this time he was his usual self when we got home!”

Ben K.

“Great communication and send lots of pictures of my little one which I love. She actually plays with my girl and takes excellent care of her.”

About: I've raised several puppies into adulthood throughout my life and I have experience in dog sitting that I have done for friends and family through the years. I'm currently searching for a new career, so I have plenty of time to take care of animals. I'm looking forward to a new experience! I have a fenced yard, and two small dogs to keep your pets company. I can also crate dogs if necessary! I have one big dog that stays in the back yard and in his crate.

About: I have house-sit and drop-in experience. I can do drop-ins and/or stay the night. I have taken care of pets up to a week at a time. Stayed with a mix of cats and dogs or one or the other. I have experience with dogs of smaller or larger breeds. I can stay overnight on weekdays but will have to do drop-ins around my college classes. I usually want to provide care for pets during the weekends because I will be more flexible with time and can spend the whole weekend with them and house-sit as well. I usually ask what the client’s schedule for feeding their pets is and how frequently they take their dogs out to use the restroom. If they have set schedules then I will always go by that and if they don’t, I go based off my own experience. Playtime is so important for active pets, so doing that is so important to me. I also ask if they would like for the dogs to go out on walks. I will take them out on walks, depending on if the client is comfortable with their dog going out.

“Courtney was 100% professional from the start. She was communicative, quick to respond (to initial request, questions, a change in the stay plan, etc.) and very clearly is a dog lover! Courtney made drop in visits for Molly while I was away for the weekend, and sent pictures throughout the time I was gone and updates. She also pulled my mail inside (THANKS COURTNEY!) and kept me informed of how things were going. When I returned home, Molly was happy and relaxed. I look forward to having Courtney care for Molly and her brother, Senna, in the future!”

“Kerrington takes good care of all our babies which includes a cat, dogs and fish. It makes leaving them much less stressful knowing they are in capable hands. Highly recommend.”

Peter R.

“Sophie was fantastic! She really cared about my cat and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable while I was away. She even offered to take him on walks since he loves going outside. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands, and I can tell my cat liked her too! Highly recommend!”

About: I have over 30 years of experience taking care of a variety of animals including: dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats, sheep, pigs, snakes, fish, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I have raised animals from birth up until their assent to heaven. I work for Uber, so I have a very flexible schedule that will allow me to fit your needs. I have two dogs myself, and while they come first, I have plenty of time and love to give. I am a very clean and trustworthy person and your animal family member will always be in a safe and loving environment. I want every animal to get their exercise, so if that's a walk or just playing I will make sure they do so in the most fun way possible.

About: We are willing to do whatever needs to be done to make your best friend comfortable. Someone is home at all times. We have had dogs for the last 15 years from puppies to seniors, including special needs. Four of our dogs have been dachshunds,one was a bloodhound, and one was a pitbull mix. Three dachshunds and the bloodhound now reside in the home. The bloodhound is a 6 year old female, the dachshunds are 7,2 and a 1 year old males. We have a very harmonious pack atmosphere. We believe that exercise keeps a pet happy! We are well acquainted with crate training, clicker training, and positive reinforcement. Our family members have dogs of various ages and breeds which spend the time with our pack so they are used to visitors! We look forward to meeting you and your doggy! I work full time, my wife does not work so she is home all day with the dogs. The only time we would leave the dogs is to go to the grocery store. We have a fenced yard and lots of toys for them to chew, we encourage tearing up toys and playing. We also allow the dogs to be on the furniture and beds.

About: I'm new to pet sitting but have taken care of my furry friend a few times and really liked it. I’m calm, responsible, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I'm home most of the time, so I have a very open schedule. I can give pets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. At my home, visiting dogs have their own space away from my dog. I have two cats who are used to dogs, too. Since our yard isn’t fenced, dogs will be on a leash whenever we’re outside. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re here.

About: We are a recently retired couple with 50 years combined experience raising children with a variety of pets. Now we have a loving, playful rescue dog that gets our full time attention. We are home all the time. We also engage and play with our pets all the time. We have plenty of toys to keep them amused too. Our large back yard is fully fenced and safe and clean at all times. We constantly clean up debris. We monitor playtime and meals to make sure they are safe at all times.

“So happy to have found Kaitlyn!! She took great care of my cats and was very attentive to my instructions on feeding them. She is super sweet and won over the hearts of my extremely judgmental cats quickly!! Would definitely recommend her to anyone and will be booking again in the future.”

About: Growing up there was always a pet in the house from my aunt and uncle's dog to my grandparents dog to finally getting our own dog. I have lots of experience taking care of animals including giving them baths, grooming them, walking them, making sure they are fed and loved on. My mom actually found this website and used it to house our dog as she came to visit me. I thought "Wow, someone is getting paid to hang out with my dog while my mom is away” which is something I love doing for free. Since I am away from my own dog I would love to take care of yours. Dogs have a special place in my heart and I would love to meet yours.
