Dog Sitting in Mabelvale

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.

“Taylor was amazing!!! She took such good care of my cat and spent time playing with her and giving her lots of cuddles. She went the extra mile even to clean her litter. Definitely recommend!”

“Aaliyah was so great! She kept us in the loop, had great communication, and provided lots of updates and photos! I definitely would recommend her to care for your fur babies”

Peyton S.

“My doggies loved Amanda and she was so great with them! I was so pleased when she came by and met them prior to dates of service so they could be familiar with her. I was shocked how much they trusted her. She took great care of them and was so loving and kind. She did great with taking pictures and updating us on how they were doing. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”

Darla S.

“This was our first time using Rover, and Tabitha made it such a wonderful experience! She came by beforehand for a meet and greet, took thoughtful notes to make sure our girls were well cared for. Even our most skittish pup warmed up to her right away! Tabitha was punctual, sent plenty of pictures, and kept us updated throughout the visit. We’d be happy to book with her again in the future!”

Lydia S.

“Can't say enough good things, every day she's stopped in to check on my pup, he's had a great day playing fetch, running around, getting some of his energy out. His commands have gotten better, crate training better, and she's given me good tips and tricks that she's observed spending time with my pup. Also takes and sends great little videos and pictures of my pup playing or being crazy whenever she does a drop in.”

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs from years of dog sitting for families in my neighborhood during the summers. Those experiences taught me how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm naturally patient, dependable, and attentive, and I enjoy helping others whenever I can. I also love being outdoors, so long walks, playtime, and plenty of fresh air are never a problem for me. I'll treat your pup like family and make sure they get the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. I have open availability on weekdays and am looking to be as available for your pups as possible! My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of walking and drop-in needs, and I'm happy to work with pet parents to find times that fit their routine. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space to run and play, and I live in a welcoming cul-de-sac that's very dog-friendly. When caring for pets in their own homes, I'm experienced with checking on crates, dog beds, food and water, and making sure backyard areas are secure and safe for playtime and potty breaks.

“Lindsey did an awesome job taking care of our cat for the past 3 weeks with drop in visits. She took good care of raja and our home. Our cat is very cautious of people but he took to Lindsay really well, she followed our pet sitting requests/instructions to the “T”. I definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. The availability I have is on weekends and after 4 pm on weekdays, available holidays. Stay overnight and accept long-term stays (longer than one week). I will love on your pooch with everything I have. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it’s sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!

“Natalie is very sweet and took great care of my babies! If ever I’m in the market for a sitter or drop-in services she will be my first choice 🫶🏻”

About: My lifelong love for animals and my personal experience caring for pets set me apart. I took early retirement to pursue my passion for helping both people and their pets. As a biologist, I bring a strong attention to detail—I am observant, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s behavior, health, and individual needs. Dogs and cats naturally sense my love for them, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. In addition to providing excellent pet care, I care for your home with the same respect and responsibility—bringing in mail, taking trash cans in from the curb, and following any specific instructions you provide. I keep pets’ spaces clean, maintain routines, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable in your absence. I am also flexible with my hours when given advance notice. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is not only cared for, but truly loved. With open availability, pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give each pet dedicated, unhurried attention, ensuring their comfort, safety, and overall happiness everyday. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes, as I am unable to accommodate animals in my own home. Caring for pets in their familiar environment ensures their comfort and reduces any stress associated with changes to their routine or surroundings. In clients’ homes, I follow all instructions meticulously to maintain the pet’s established feeding, exercise, and care schedule. This includes cleaning litter boxes, feeding and hydrating pets, administering medications (if required), and providing companionship through playtime or affection. I prioritize keeping the home tidy and secure, ensuring the pet’s space remains clean and well-maintained.
