“This was my first time using Lauren and I was beyond pleased with what a great job she did taking care of Hope. She sent pictures and updates and I could tell that Hope was a happy “camper” when I picked her up. I will definitely use her again!”
“Stephanie and crew watched my 2 dogs for 2 weeks while I was handling a family emergency. I had to extend their stay once and she was incredibly flexible and even bought them more dog food so that they could stay longer. She sent pictures and videos every day. They had a ton of fun with her. I would rebook in a heartbeat.”
“I’m so thankful for the amazing care Elysa gave my dog, Roxy! 🐾 From the moment they met, I could tell Roxy felt comfortable and happy. Elysa didn’t just pet sit, she went above and beyond. She took Roxy on relaxing strolls, kept me updated with the cutest pictures 📸, and even gave her a little grooming session to keep her looking her best! ✨ I could really tell that Roxy was loved and well cared for the whole time. I highly recommend Elysa to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and genuinely caring pet sitter. Thank you so much again, Elysa! 🐶💛”
“We could not have had a better sitter for our 4 month old pup. Suzanne kept in touch everyday and Pixie enjoyed her 4 day stay. We would definitely recommend Suzanne. She is an animal lover for sure!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Pixie! ?”
“Amber made Charley feel very welcome into her home. Kept me updated how he was doing as it was his first time away from us. We would use Amber again if back to her area.”
About: Hi & thank you so much for your consideration! ☺️ We are a family of four with two sweet pups- our Olde English Bulldogge, Diesel & our Goldendoodle, Love. 🐶🐾 We have 2 teenagers who also adore pets & have been great caretakers. My husband & I are home during the day & will be able to give your furry friend the attention & care he/she needs. Your furry friend will be shown lots of love during his/ her stay. We know & understand the importance of not only caring for/ owning a dog, but that dog becoming a part of our family. 🩵💜 We believe in creating a safe & comfortable environment not only for our children, but our dogs as well. Our home is welcoming, fun, laid back, respectful, engaging & full of love. 🩵 No two dogs are alike. While some may need space & others love to be nearby- we will respect what your pup needs to feel at his/ her best. We started dog sitting for friends/family around 14 years ago & have been around dogs our entire lives. Over the years we have gotten to know some pretty amazing pups! 🐾🐶 Our schedules allow us to be home throughout the day to care for/ play with your furry friend. We have experience in giving meds, taking care of older dogs, younger dogs, & basic grooming needs. We know how hard it is to leave our beloved pets when traveling. We are here to make that transition a little easier. The comfort & safety is a top priority. We recommend a meet & greet to ensure both parties feel at ease. ☺️ Our schedules allow us to be home throughout the day & are pretty flexible. Your dog wouldn’t be left alone for an extended period of time( if any at all). Our dogs love to play & go for walks however, are pretty laid back. Our home has low windows that are great for sight seeing. I can take your pup on one walk or multiple walks a day. We have a back deck that is great for the pups to go sunbathing. ☀️ As well as a hammock & covered patio/deck that is fantastic for lounging out of the sun. If your pup prefers to sunbathe indoors- we have French doors where the sun perfectly shines in. ☀️ Our dogs have an open feeding station, however the food can be moved to another location if needed. We are a non- smoking household. We live on several acres tucked away from major roads & our property has a fenced in back yard. Our pups love to sunbathe, cozy up near the couch, lay close to each other & come in for snuggles. They also enjoy playing in the front yard, catching some shade under the trampoline, playing catch, tug a war, or chasing after a cat laser. Our dogs are house trained & use the back door with a bell when they need/ want to go outside. Typically, we don’t allow our dogs on the couch, however, we take into consideration with certain circumstances. Your dog will have freedom to roam around our house & be where we are. We want your pet to feel comfortable & at home in a new space. 🩵 Sleeping arrangements can be discussed as we have a few options.
“Amber went out of her way to make Snowflake feel at home. She even went to the store and bought her some chicken to boil because she didn’t want to eat her dog food. She was good to keep in touch and answer my questions soon after I asked them. She is a great sitter for my girl! I hope to book her to keep Snowflake again soon. Thank you, Amber!”
About: I have worked at a vets office going on 8 years now as a vet technician. I studied animal science at Auburn University. I have dog/cat sat for several years. I work 3rd shift as a supervisor at a processing facility. I work 11:30pm-~7:00am. With my schedule I would still be able to do any morning or night check in you would need. I have 4 dogs that love to have friends to play with. I have a fenced in yard, but walk mine daily. I am a few minutes from Albertville’s Dog Park where my dogs love to go run and play.
“Dustin was absolutely amazing! He took such great care of Juno. I didn’t worry one second about her. He kept me informed throughout her stay, let her run and play, and pampered her better than I do! I can’t recommend Dustin for pet sitting and boarding highly enough.”
“Christina was an amazing choice! She sent daily pictures, videos, and updates. This was my first time boarding Whisky and he was BEGGING to go back and hang out with his new friends! You can't go wrong with Christina and her family.”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes, I've turned my deep love for animals into something truly personal. From playful pups to seasoned seniors, I've mastered the art of tail wags, belly rubs, and understanding each pet's unique personality. Whether it's daily routine, special needs, or those little quirks only a true pet lover would notice-I treat every furry friend like family. I work Mon - Thurs 8am-4pm and Friday 8am-2pm. If you need boarding, check ins or walking during these times please message me and other arrangements can be made if necessary. I work within 10 mins of my home and take an hour lunch break daily. I have a fenced in backyard and 3 fur babies of my own to play with your pups. I can also offer crating if you would prefer, but in our house all pups are free to roam and get in the beds and on furniture.

I'm currently completely online doing college, so my schedule is always free and opened! I love having all of the furry friends around. My schedule is usually pretty open so message me! I love when clients leave me a listen on things they like to do/ their daily schedules, I love meeting the animals prior to the owners leaving so they feel comfortable with me both the animals and owners. I like when the owner gives me a run down on everything they do with the pets!
