2. Bethany M.
“Our dogs and our family loved Bethany. She put all our fears at ease, as we have never used a dog sitting service before. Scheduled a meet and greet before hand and was able to see personally that our dogs loved her as well as photos during her stay and updates. Our babies have a new best friend when Mom and Dad can’t be home. ❤️”

“Ren was very thorough with taking down instructions and asked questions if she needed to. Our dogs, hamster, bearded dragon and tree frog were great when we got home and the house was too. Thanks, Ren!”
4. Madeline P.
“Such a great sitter! Thoughtful and more caring than I could ask for. She even gave our pup a bath. Super communicative. This is our second time having Madeline watch our pup and would love to have her stay at our house with her again.”
5. Bethany W.
“Highly Recommend!!! The moment I met Bethany at our home, both me and my dog fell head over heels 💓 Her communication is clear and prompt. Her care is stellar! Bethany stayed at our home with our senior dog who is experiencing painful arthritis for the weekend. She shared photos and kept me updated throughout her stay. I returned to a spotless home and a happy, wagging, old Charlie. Thank you Bethany!”

16. Madilyn G.
About: I’ve been taking care of multiple dogs at once since I was 13. I work at a doggie day care where I am trusted to take care of up to 60 large and small dogs at once, feed, take out, and give medication to. I absolutely adore all animals, dogs, cats, large and small ! I also am a certified groom tech! I also love and will take care of exotic pets of any species! I have Guinea pigs and a bird of my own but lots of know how when it comes to them! I work full time and adjust my schedule according! But I’ll be able to still stay and help accordingly! I’ll always be available on weekends, and most likely most week day afternoons I can easily handle many dogs at once, including ones that are reactive to other dogs or have other behavioral issues. I’ve handled lots of dogs with behavioral issues and have no issue with it I’m always happy to accommodate and help in whatever way I can
17. Jasmine K.
“Jasmine was great! Would book her again. Excellent communication throughout our trip - we felt very comforted that the animals had such an attentive and conscientious caretaker while we were away. When we got home the animals were all happy and the house was pristine. Highly recommended.”
18. Jordan W.
About: Proud animal owner of 20 plus years! I’ll be glad to make your animals feel right at home. Looking to meet all of pet/pet owner needs! I’m available any time. Long term or flexible schedules are welcome, recently relocated to Cullman, so even a friendly animal would be of help to me. I go on occasionally runs/walks, get out in the yard to enjoy nature, and also have a place for animals to stay inside. I can assure your animal will love my company/amenities.
19. Elizabeth K.
“Elizabeth was wonderful! Proactive, responsive, great communications, above and beyond. I will define use her services again.”
20. Alicia O.
About: I am very attentive to all animals. I allow animals in the house, and on the furniture. I do live in an apartment, but will gladly grab a leash and head to the park or lake lake for a nice walk. I have other animals, that get along great with strange animals. I am willing to feed, and groom. I am easy going, and am very easy to get along with. I am very accommodating to every need that your sweet pet may need. If there are any medications or a certain diet that must be followed, I will make sure it happens. I have references to ease your mind, and to reassure you that your baby is in good hands. I can’t wait to work with you and your sweet babies! Hope to hear from you soon! I have a schedule that is different from most. I am a paramedic, so I work 24 hours at a time and off 48 hours. I am also active and looking for things to do on my two days off. My kids and I enjoy animals so much that we would love to bring a new friend around in our days. I have two lovely dogs that are always wanting to make new friends! I am willing to keep whatever schedule your baby has going as normal as possible for them. I will feed and administer medication as needed. They have free range of the house and a back yard to go potty.
