Angela was a lifesaver for us! She did two visits a day for our 9 week old puppy (and gave our 11 year old some love while she was there, too.) before her forst drop in, she came to my house to meet my puppy (and me). She was always prompt and left detailed messages and sent several pictures each time. I will definitely be using her each time I need a sitter!

Princess is WONDERFUL. Our dog absolutely adores her and loses his sweet mind when she comes around. She keeps us informed about how he’s doing, how he’s eating, etc. We love and trust her completely.

Jessie was amazing!! She was very dependable and took great care of our cat, Luna, while were on vacation. Our shy cat warmed up to her very quickly and was happy to see Jessie each day. We loved that Jessie sent us pictures and videos with daily updates. I could tell that Luna was in great hands and much less stressed. Jessie treated Luna just like her own fur baby and gave her all the love and attention she is used to getting while we are home. Overall, this was such a great experience, and I would recommend Jessie to anyone. We will definitely book again next time.

About: I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, from puppies to senior dogs and Chihuahuas to Great Danes! All of which I’ve had no trouble with as I’m extremely sensitive to dogs and their personalities/temperament. I’m especially good with active dogs because I love to play! So you don’t have to worry about your furry companion and I not getting along. I’m doing pet care full time for the summer and I will be doing online classes at UAB during the fall; I’m almost always available for you and your pet. I typically feed, walk or provide company and companionship for your fur baby. However this is very dependent on both the owner’s and pet’s needs. Please let me know what I can do for you!

Our cats seemed happy when we got back and Kennedy made a sweet Fourth of July enrichment box for our cats to play in. Our cat, Ginger, in particular, looked like he was having so much fun with it in the photos. 🧡 I highly recommend Kennedy and will absolutely be booking with her again!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5 and have had all ages so I have had experience in how handle them all. i do not go to school until after 9am and I am able to be home by 11:30am Monday thru Friday. I can be home all day Saturday and Sundays. Monday-Wednesday I typically work but have a flexible schedule and can change it if needed. So this will allow me to be the only person caring for your animal. In my home we let our cats roam and have their bowls out so they can eat whenever. If you need me to keep your cat on a schedule I can also do that. We feed our dog morning and night. I let him out in the morning and let him stay outside in our backyard/deck until I or someone else get home.

About: I love animals, I have owned various furry friends throughout my life. Cats, dogs, bunnies, fish, etc. I work with animals on a daily basis. Providing for animals is my dedication. I have worked for pet stores and handled tons of different pets with personalities all different than the last. I have a puppy of my own whom I currently training, sit, potty training, lay, and wait. She’s currently understanding sit and stay. Great progress! Dealing with animals is healing and I try to fill my weekly schedule with caring for pets. Including after hours for my current job and to also help individuals who need assistance. I always take my time to deal with animals in their own environment. It is their home and I will always respect the pet, and let parent, since it is their area of living. Cleanliness, and respect, is always #1!

Dana is fantastic! She stopped by to let Albus and Tom out to potty, and everything went so smoothly. Tom can be a little shy and anxious with new people, but she was so patient and gentle that he warmed right up to her. Both boys were well-cared for and happy after her visit. Highly recommend!

Kyler is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond with her drop-in visits to care for my doggies. Not only did she make sure they were happy and well taken care of, but she also sent me the sweetest pictures and videos that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. You can tell she truly cares about animals and treats them like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—highly recommend Kyler to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive!
