“Nikki is the absolute best!! Pics, videos and communications every day. We were able to enjoy our week long trip knowing that our puppy was in the best hands. I’m already planning when he will get to go back. He had so much fun!”


“Lauryn was absolutely great and kept us informed of our pets' adjustment while in her care. Will definitely utilize her services again. Thank you Lauryn for your attentiveness and accommodations.”



“Courtney was an excellent sitter and very pleasant to meet. We met prior to the stay and although Beta was a little wary of her dog, Tito, she was phenomenal in getting them comfortable with each other. Beta has had exposure with many dogs but I was a bit nervous as most parents of how he would handle to anxiety (he has quite a bit at times!) I am so incredibly happy with Courtney's expertise and her sweet pictures that she sent during out trip. She is highly recommended!”


“Savannah provided the absolute best experience I’ve ever had with any kind of dog sitter. Like most owners I was pretty hesitant leaving my doggo with someone but honestly, will be booking through her again. 5/5, best sitter and awesome prices. I will tell anyone who asks she’s the person to goto for dog sitting and boarding.”


“Our Marlo enjoyed his time with Piper. They had a spacious fence back yard. We received daily photos of his stay. Will be using her services again for our summer vacation.”


“Girl had an amazing time, she was exhausted when she came home that’s how I knew she was having an amazing time. Will definitely be booking again!”


“Laura was wonderful in every way. Happy dog, happy owners. Got updates and photos multiple times a day and she was flexible with our needs. 10/10 recommend!”


“Brenda did an amazing job boarding my Tibetan Spaniel in her home. Her home was clean and soothing and I could tell my dog felt instantly comfortable. She had lots of dog toys and her house was set up to make sure dogs can be safe. She had baby gates around the front and back doors so dogs can’t rush out the door into the street. She also had a separate gated off area with a small doggie door through the gate so a small dog like mine could enjoy his food separately from a bigger dog. She had soft blankets on her furniture and my dog loved snoozing on them. She sent regular photo and video updates of him playing and snuggling and enjoying her lovely fenced in courtyard and yard. I could tell he was having the BEST time. I was so glad my dog got to go on a fun vacation too! We will definitely be boarding with Brenda again!”

“Isabella was amazing and my dogs were more calm and happy than they've ever been after being separate from us for the day. They loved their time with Isabella! Thanks so much!”


“Kaee was trustworthy and we felt very comfortable leaving Bentley with her. From the first time we met, we knew she would be the sitter for Bentley. First impression is very important and tells a lot about a person. We will definitely be calling her again and recommending Kaee.”


“Sonya was absolutely amazing! She cared for Nipsey Hussle like he was her own. She kept him for a whole week and sent me several photos and videos while I was away. He looked like he was having so much fun, and we will certainly use her again.”



“Ms. Ann is AMAZING!! My first time using Rover and I was a little skeptical because my fur baby is my everything.. but Ms. Ann knows exactly what she’s doing. Please book her for your dog sitting needs!”


“Sarah was wonderful and went above and beyond caring for our dog during a very stormy weekend. She made sure Charlie felt comfortable and safe and sent us a ton of pictures and updates. We love her!”



“We were visiting the area from out of town. Our dog Ronnie is high-needs bc he has DM and has limited use in his hind legs. Laurie was so patient with Ronnie. She sent us pictures daily and kept in touch with us over the 4 day stay. We would highly recommend her!! Ronnie was happy and so are we that our baby was in a loving home!”


About: Cats and dogs have always been a very important part of my life and I enjoy spending time with them..I can care for cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. I can also administer medicines if needed...And your pets will receive plenty of TLC🐈⬛️🐾🐕 I am at home every day, so I will always be with your pet...I'm also home every night, so I don't mind caring for pet for several days or longer... I have a beautiful home. Cats will have a clean litter box, fresh water at all times and I will feed them the cat food that they are used to. For dogs, they can go outside and play in my fenced backyard, or I can take them for walks in my lovely neighborhood.


“As always Melanie has done an outstanding job at taking care of my pup. The big plus this time was Koda finding an extra person to adore and care for her who was Melanie’s son. He treated Koda as if she were his own and formed a bond with her. Words can’t describe how satisfied I am. Thank you!”

“Sweetest lady ever. We were afraid our dog would not want to come home.”


About: I will provide care and love to your dog just like I do for my very own fur-children. Your dog will enjoy being able to be comfortable and relax on the couch while enjoying time with two other very friendly dogs. We go on lots of walks and stay as active as the weather will allow for. If you want your dog to run for their walk, I would be more than happy to provide that service as well! I’m a full time nursing student wanting to help out fellow pet owners while I have a little free time! I’ve also experienced the hassle of finding boarding for overnights, and I’d love to ease the stress of that. I’m currently earning my degree from home, so I have flexibility and availability for your furbabies and will be able to provide attention and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I have a fenced in large backyard with two playful friendly dogs of my own to keep your furbaby company. I can also easily separate or crate your dog if needed.

“My dog Flo immediately took to Alyssa, who took great care of her. She sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how Flo was doing. I'll definitely call on Alyssa again when we're near Mobile!!”



“Allie was friendly, warm, and responsive. I received pictures and regular updates. Butter looked so calm and happy at her house. I will recommend Allie and will definitely use her again.”
