About: I was born and raised with Dobermans by my side, but my expertise does not just span large dogs--but also small dogs, puppies, seniors, cats, and other furry friends. I’ve been a reliable pet sitter, taking care of my friend’s and family’s cats and dogs. I’ve ensured they’re well-fed, entertained, and they have taken care of business 💩. I’ve stayed at homes and made drop-in visits, so I can provide flexible care. I understand that your pets are like family members, so I’ll treat them with the same patience and respect they deserve! I am currently working part time at an office and applying for other jobs. I have a lot of extra time on my hands and I am looking to fill it by spending time with animals and getting my steps in! I am open for last minute bookings!!! I prioritize your pet’s comfort by following your specific care routine. My process begins by gaining your pet's trust through a calm, patient approach, ensuring they feel safe before we dive into anything. I like to keep the line of communication open with the pet parent to ensure transparency throughout the whole process. I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and affection to minimize any anxiety they may face without their typical routine away from parents.

Sara is not just a sweet person in general but she was so great with our fur babies while we were out of town, I don’t even think they missed us! She went out of her way to make sure the house and our fish were cared for as well. 🥰

Kathryn is an amazing dog sitter. She has dog sat for us multiple times and she always does a great job. She comes exactly when she says she will and the dogs love her. She leaves our house clean and sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. Thank you for being so trustworthy Kathryn!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. I have walked them, bathed them, cuddles , massages, gave medications you name it. I absolutely love the feeling and genuine love that dogs give so I protect and love them at all cost! A stay home wife with no children home currently, so I’m free a lot! Needing a new hobby I enjoy to consume my days now. I have small babies so the house is already baby proofed! Also can purchase whatever is needed to make them feel comfortable! Not big on dogs being in crates and cages but if that’s what your prefer that can be arranged as well! Long as the dog is comfortable I am happy!

About: I’ve had many pets since the age of 6 years old and I’ve always had an absolute love for any and all animals out there. I’m currently a college student with a very flexible schedule for every one needed. I’m available on weekdays (Mon-Thurs) from 12pm and weekends (Fri-Sun) after 5:30pm. I have many experiences with caring for other owners’ fur babies in their home and I’m as respectful as I can be in their houses. I can send many pictures if the client needs them in order to be comfortable.

Had Cheyenne house sit our 80lb pittie for about a week while we were out of town and can’t recommend her enough! He can be a bit hesitant at first, and he warmed up quickly to her. Also she constantly sent photo updates- and we absolutely loved and appreciated seeing a new enrichment toy being used in almost each pic.

About: I have over five years of pet sitting experience and began caring for pets back in high school, where I built a pet sitting business of my own. Through that experience, I learned how important reliability, communication, patience, and personalized care are for both pets and their owners. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, multiple-pet households, walks, feeding routines, playtime, and providing companionship. I also have many past clients in Florida who would gladly speak highly of my care and professionalism. As a pet owner myself with two dogs and one cat, I understand that pets are family and deserve genuine love and attention. I will be relocating to Homewood in mid-May and will have a very flexible summer schedule while taking online classes. This allows me to be available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and last-minute needs. Because I travel by bike or electric scooter, I’m focusing on nearby clients so I can provide dependable, punctual care and consistent availability. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In a client’s home, I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and household preferences to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times. I provide gentle attention, exercise, companionship, and updates so owners feel confident knowing their pets are in caring and reliable hands.

Stephanie is highly recommended. She stayed at our home and cared for the dogs like they were her own. She took them to the dog park daily and played with them in the yard. She also texted daily and sent pictures. I'm already considering her for another job.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and truly love spending time with them. I had a German Shepherd named Sheba and two cats, Pichu and Mitzu, and I’ve also cared for friends’ pets. Through Rover, I’ve walked and cared for pets of a wide range of ages. I’m experienced with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving pets the attention and care they need to feel comfortable and happy. I work remotely and thus have a flexible schedule when it comes to pet care. I am happy to accommodate the needs of my clients. In my client’s home I am happy to abide by any and all rules specified by the client, and ensure that their pet is happy!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for them since childhood and have gained extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am certified in Cat & Dog First Aid through the American Red Cross and I also hold a Fear Free Pet Certification, meaning I prioritize low-stress, positive handling techniques to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and secure at all times. Your pet’s safety and emotional well-being are always my top priority. I spent two years working at an animal shelter, where I handled everything from socializing shy rescues to assisting with basic training and caring for high energy dogs. In addition, I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs, including mobility challenges and anxiety. I am the owner of Salty’s Pet Services LLC, where I provide professional boarding, walking, and drop-in visits. Every dog in my care receives personalized attention, structure, and plenty of love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or playtime, I’m dedicated to making sure your dog feels at home while you’re away. Weekday Care & Supervision I am home-based which means I am home throughout the day providing attentive, hands-on care. Dogs receive frequent potty breaks, meals on schedule, enrichment, and consistent supervision. This setup is ideal for dogs who benefit from structure, routine, and human presence rather than being left alone for extended periods. Weekend Care I am fully available on weekends and intentionally limit my schedule to ensure each dog receives quality, individualized attention. Whether it’s relaxed downtime at home, structured walks, or light outings, your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. Potty Training Requirement All dogs must be potty trained. If your dog is prone to accidents, diapers or potty pads are required to maintain a clean, comfortable environment for all pets in my care. What to Bring for Your Dog’s Stay To ensure a seamless and stress-free experience, please pack the following: 🐾 Food & Treats: Sufficient for the entire stay 🐾 Food & Water Bowls: To maintain familiarity and routine 🐾 Collar/Harness & Leash: Required for walks and outdoor time 🐾 Emergency Contact Information 🐾 Daily Routine Overview: Feeding, potty, sleep, and behavior notes 🐾 Medications (if applicable): Clearly labeled with instructions 🐾 Bedding or Blanket (optional): Familiar scent for comfort 🐾 Crate (optional but recommended): For rest and decompression 🐾 Poop Bags (optional) 🐾 Favorite Toys (optional): Comfort items from home Care Standards I intentionally keep my environment calm, clean, and structured. Your dog will be treated as a guest in my home, not just a booking on a calendar. Safety, communication, and your pet’s well-being are always my priority. If you have specific expectations, questions, or care requests, please reach out prior to booking. I look forward to providing your dog with exceptional care. 🐕❤️ I have a small yard with a secure chain link setup, providing a safe space for dogs to play and stretch their legs. While my yard is not fully fenced, I always ensure supervised outdoor time to keep your dog safe. Having a companion can help ease anxiety and make their stay more fun and engaging. Whether they love to play, lounge, or explore, I create a comfortable, stress-free environment where every dog feels at home. Safety is my top priority, and I’m committed to giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐕

About: Hi! My name is Alysia, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years through family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. During visits and walks, I focus on keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine. Whether that means a long walk, playtime, feeding, administering simple medications, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work at a childcare center, where responsibility, patience, and attention to detail are essential every day. Those same qualities carry over into the care I provide for pets. I understand how important updates are when you’re away, so I always send photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 12:50 PM to 5:30 PM, which allows me to provide morning walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and playtime before work. I am also available on Tuesdays and Thursdays for additional daytime care and can accommodate evening visits after work. I understand the importance of consistency for pets and always make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I do not usually have dogs stay at my house because I have family members who are allergic but I am very respectful of your space. I make sure that they are fed at the exact times needed especially if they have a certain schedule and make sure that they get their exercise daily.
