“We had two elderly sick kitties. We lost our boy kitty a few days before the reservation. The reservation for drop ins changed a few times. It worked out in the end. It was just three days, but was important to have someone there for our girl kitty after she lost her littermate of 16 + years. Sage was very understanding of our situation.”
“Zyane is an excellent dog sitter and took great care of my Indy. She was more than willing to shift her schedule whenever I had last minute changes in my work schedule. She is reliable, consistent and considerate. She let me know in advance whenever her schedule changed so that I wasn’t rushing to find a last minute pet sitter. She would clean my dog’s paws after he got them muddy on their walks and I didn’t even have to ask her. She is very attentive and amazing to work with. 10/10 recommend”

About: I’ve taken care of large, active breeds and smaller, more relaxed pups - all are welcome! All pets will have the opportunity for consistent, safe walks on post with play and attention throughout the day. I am available throughout the work week to help ensure pets are able to get their walks in or to host (at our home or yours) for training or weekend passes and leave. Happy to coordinate a routine schedule or arrange for unexpected care! I have a fenced in yard in Bowden terrace, with a large residential field nearby to take for fetch or for walks around the block. At home, we have a relaxed corgi of our own; your pet is welcome to lounge in the front room, receive healthy snacks (with your approval), and may either sleep in the open or in a kennel for the evening if you prefer. All care will be coordinated with you to ensure your pet feels welcome and comfortable!
“Isabella is a great pet sitter. She looked after my two cats Luna & Lola, for four days, spent time with them and followed the feeding instructions. Definitely will book again when I'm out of town.”


“Danielle was excellent for checking in and feeding, scooping litter, etc. My Bucky boy. She sent me messages when she was there to feed him and a pic each time. I was relaxed and calm knowing he was in good hands.”

“Thank you Rover and Tiffany for your services! We are very happy that we found you to help us in our time of need. Tiffany is a true professional who showed up when scheduled and took care of our Red with the same loving attention we give him. I highly recommend her to anyone who may need someone to care for thier dog.”

“She did wonderful with our dogs! They immediately liked her and they were the most relaxed that we had seen them after we returned from a trip. Definitely will be requesting her again!”

“Hannah was a wonderful drop-in pet sitter for my three fur babies. She won over Memphis's trust very quickly. Jesse always hides and Molly is first to greet everyone. Molly did enjoy playing with Hannah and Memphis snuggled with Hannah for scratches and kisses. Pictures were provided daily and more. I will definitely use Hannah again....perhaps even next month ☺️”

“Elizabeth was amazing! One of our pups was being very stubborn and did not want to go inside but she’s was so patient with him and played the waiting game with him. We really appreciate her.”

About: I’ve been caring for other people's pets for over 10 years, and it’s something that has always come very naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve built long-term relationships with families, including providing overnight pet sitting in clients’ homes for a week or more at a time. While I’ve done a lot of overnight, in-home pet sitting in the past, I now focus on drop-in visits so your pets can stay comfortable and relaxed in their own home and routine. I truly believe pets do best in their familiar environment, and I’m here to support that. I would describe myself as attentive, gentle, and genuinely loving with animals. I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, cared for, and not alone while their family is away, whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or just extra affection. I have experience with dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including giving medications when needed. As a military spouse, I also have access to Fort Rucker, which allows me to provide care for families living on base. Communication is very important to me. I love sending updates and photos, because as a pet owner myself (my cat Zuzu is my whole world 🐱), I know how much it means to feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the responsibility of caring for them very seriously. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible and consistent with scheduling. I can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits depending on what works best for your pet. I make it a priority to give each pet my full attention and to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I understand how important familiarity is for animals, so I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and any specific instructions closely. During visits, I make sure your pet gets the attention they need, whether that’s playtime, walks, or simply companionship... while also being mindful of their individual personality and energy level. I am very respectful of your home and treat it with care, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. I also make sure doors, gates, and any safety measures are always properly handled. Communication is a priority for me, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for, and for you to have complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve had numerous jobs working with animals including the care of livestock, dogs, cats, birds, sugar gliders, you name it! I worked at a horse stable for 6 years and Petsmart for 2 years as an animal caretaker. I am not working right now but I’m going to school Mondays and Wednesdays from 10-3pm. So I have a lot of free time to take care of your fur babies. I usually make a list, or have the pet parents make one to ensure I’m taking care of their pets to their standard. . .
About: I’m excited to apply what I’ve learned about my pets to others. Every pet has their own personality I want to get to know them. Pet car fits perfectly into my schedule as I complete college online and am home majority of the day they always have my undivided attention. I have a semi fenced yard but so much for them to run in the back. I have a fur baby of my own who loves to play, he’s gentle and sweet. He treats other dogs with respect and knows to set a boundary if they want to play or not.
About: I have been caring for cats and dogs since I was around eight years old and have extensive experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and relatives. Currently, I am the proud owner of one cat, which has deepened my understanding of feline behavior and needs. Additionally, I have a bit of experience caring for senior dogs, allowing me to provide the specialized attention they require. My lifelong passion for animal care, combined with hands-on experience, ensures that your pets receive the highest level of attention and care. I'm currently only studying and testing for my GED so I have a pretty flexible schedule! The rest of my time is spent with my own pets and with family! I'll use the tools provided by you to provide upstanding care for your furry friends. Walking, feeding, play and enrichment, even bathing if requested! It's a pleasure to work with these animals and make them happy and comfortable!
