Pet care experience

Pampering Your Pets is My Priority!

Not only have I been dog sitting for the last 15 years, but I also have a lot of other experience with pet care! I have worked in a pet store as well as in veterinary offices when I used to live back in Indiana so I have learned a lot about caring for animals. I attended veterinary nursing school too before I moved, but I didn’t get to finish before moving down here and am currently looking to re start schooling here in Alabama. While I there I gained even more knowledge on animal health and care. I was the kennel manager for the shelter pets that we had at the school, where I was in charge of administering oral and IV/IM pet medication. I have experience working with elderly pets with medical issues as my own fur baby who passed in 2025 suffered from CHF and she required a lot of extra care towards the end. I love all types of animals and have experience caring for not only just dogs and cats. Over the years I have owned reptiles, turtles, and currently own 2 rabbits as well as 2 cats and 1 dog! If you book with me I will treat your pet as though they were my own so you can rest easy knowing they are loved and taken care of!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard and a dog door that my two dogs go in and out of freely. I will walk or run with your dog daily. There is usually always someone in my house at home at all times, who all love to interact with dogs. I have one other dogs. She is typically nice with other dogs but can be very skittish, so they would need to be introduced prior to being watched. The safety and comfort of all of the dogs including my own are my priority, so it needs to be a good fit. My dog does love to play a lot so they usually enjoy having another furry friend to play with. My 2 cats and 2 rabbits also live in the home, but the layout of the house allows them to stay in the upstairs portion of the house and it is blocked off to allow them to be separated. They all get along, but I feel more comfortable to allow them to have their own spaces.

Lucy did an outstanding job taking care of our dogs over Labor Day weekend. She updated us often on how things were going and we would definitely use her services again.

Lucy was amazing!! Beau had surgery and she watched him while I was at work. She sent pictures and dealt with all my frequent check-ins. I will 100% be using her again in the future when I need a sitter.

Lucy is a wonderful person. She is great with dogs and people! We have 3 dogs and she loves them all! She has even picked up our puppy, taken her to get a bath, bought her a new dress and collar, and returned her back clean and happy!! I would highly recommend Lucy for any dog sitting needs you might have!!
