About: I have been a genuine animal lover my entire life! Since I was young I was quick to bond with any animal, no matter how ornery they were. For years, I have been the trusted sitter for my family's, friend's, and coworker's furry friends. My main passion in sitting is giving your fur babies all the love, companionship, and structure they need to keep their stress down and stay on routine. I also have a passion for animal photography, so there is a good chance you will be left with a cute little memento to welcome you back home. I'm excited and look forward to watching your tail-wagging sidekicks! I strive to be available for your pet whenever I am needed! I'm passionate about keeping your pets on routine as much as I can, and am willing to adapt my schedule as much as possible to achieve that. My experience revolves around pet sitting in the client's homes. I'm a "by the book" personality, so I will follow all pet care instructions to the tee. So I will care for your pets in the exact same way that you care for your pets.

About: I am privately insured for your peace of mind! I have been volunteering at animal rescues since 2016 and I used to be kennel tech. I am very knowledgable and experienced with geriatric and special needs dogs. I also have experience working with exotic animals! I currently only board pets under 40lb. I am pet CPR Certified through Recovery Initiative. Boarding: I mostly work morning weekend shifts, my mom and I live together and she only works Monday thru Thursday. There is brief periods where we leave the house to do errands but the pets usually have less then 3 hours of alone time per day. I am currently not offering in house sitting for large dogs, I have 3 dogs that get along well with small dogs. My animals get all the love and have a huge yard for play time.

“We have two very active labs. Duke & Daisy. Duke loves everyone so of course he was so excited to meet Allison. Daisy was a rescue and is very timid at first. Not with Allison! She loved her. She definitely has a way with dogs. They had the best walk. It was as though they have known each other for much longer. It’s nice to find someone you feel safe with caring for your babies! ??”



“Absolutely fantastic dog sitter. Kind and considerate. Felt extremely comfortable with her taking care of my best furry friend. Highly recommend.”

About: My name is Clea Kate. I am 25 years old and have been petting for about 5 years now. I have had here and there jobs for people in my current city of residence. Some were friends and others were acquaintances I have met and asked me to care for their animals. I do own a car and am available for transportation if desired. I love animals and have a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own. I have always been an animal lover and am good at taking care of their needs. I have experience house sitting with animals, walking, and drop in care for them. I am excited to find new jobs and keep a job related to being around animals. I look forward to these new experiences. I am available after 4pm, Monday-Thursday and Fri-Sun anytime. I will be available for walks, drop in care, and bathing during those times and days. I have an indoor cat so saftey is my biggest concern. I always am very careful with entering my home in order to not let her out and am very attentive to dangers around the house that she could harm or be harmed on. I am very attentive and can fit a client’s particular pet needs.

“Rikki was very prompt and communicative! Thank you for your patience with our crazy boy!”

I currently live with a dog that requires lots of specialized care

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I have a passion for animals. I workd at Camp Bow Wow for two years. It is a dog daycare and boarding facility. There distribute food and medicine, give baths and monitor the the dogs there. With my job I had had to learn about dog body language and illnesses. I am a full time student at the University of South Alabama and I have time in between my classes to take some furry friends out with me. My dog is crated if left home alone and loves going on walks in the neighborhood, parks, and beaches. I train him everyday and train certain things in the routine of our day for example he sits then eats with a release word and we are working on exiting the crate crate with a release word.


“We love Crystal! She is very consistent and reliable which is huge to us. We work in healthcare so we need someone we can trust to let our dog at since we can’t come home. We will definitely continue to use her in the future!”


About: As a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of various species, I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions, and even reptiles. I’m committed to providing your pets with the best care, love, and attention while you’re away, treating them as if they were my own. Whether it’s training a puppy, tending to the special needs of senior pets, or making sure your reptiles get their daily basking time, I’m equipped to handle it all. My work schedule is very flexible and during school I’ll be online so I’m home all day, where I can spend as much time with your pets. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, making sure your pets feel secure and at ease. Responsibilities include feeding, providing fresh water, and interactive play to keep them physically and mentally stimulated. At the client’s home, I maintain their routine and environment to minimize stress. I want to make sure they are as comfortable as they are in your home and treat them like my own pets.

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.

About: I am dedicated to delivering exceptional pet care. I understand that every pet is unique so I’ll work with you to create a customized care plan for your fur baby. I work part time right now so I’m usually available for morning and mid day walks. I can always work with your schedule as well. I treat all fur babies the same as I do my own. I like to engage in playtime, go on walks and even teach some new tricks.

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was 8. Currently, I have 2 cats, and am excited about taking care of your animals as well! I am a teacher on summer break, so I can be in and out throughout the day, or even stay all day. I am available to stay overnight as well. I am unable to offer pet care in my home as my cats do not like new people or animals. However, in your home, I will follow any and all instructions you leave for me. You want your pet crated? Done. You want your pet to sleep in the bed with me? Can do. We’ll have our own great vacation while you have yours!

“I am thrilled to write this testimonial for Avery because they have been an absolute blessing for both me and my furry companion. When I first hired Avery, I was searching for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker to help me give my dog the exercise and stimulation he needed while I was at work. Little did I know that I would find a dog walker who exceeds all expectations. From the very beginning, Avery demonstrated their professionalism and genuine love for dogs. They took the time to get to know my dog's unique personality, quirks, and exercise requirements. It was evident that they genuinely cared about his well-being and happiness. They are not only passionate about dogs but also highly experienced and knowledgeable. They possess a deep understanding of dog behavior, and I have complete confidence in their ability to handle any situation that may arise during the walks. They treat my dog with the utmost care, respect, and kindness, which puts my mind at ease every time I entrust my furry friend to their care. One thing I truly appreciate about Avery is their commitment to providing a tailored experience. They understand that every dog is unique, and they customize each walk to meet my dog's specific needs. Whether it's a brisk walk or a leisurely stroll, they adapt to my dog's energy level, ensuring he receives the appropriate exercise and mental stimulation. They also incorporate playtime, which my dog absolutely loves. Reliability is another standout quality of Avery. They consistently arrive on time and are always ready to take my dog for his scheduled walk. I never have to worry about cancellations or last-minute changes.”
