“April was so nice and great with Duke. I tend to be very anxious about him but she made me feel so at ease and sent an adorable picture of Duke on his walk!!”


About: I am a fur mommy to an amazing little guy we call Charlie Brown! He is wonderful with adults and children alike! We would love to find him some new friends by watching your cute fur babies too! In my house, someone is always home, so your pet would never be alone! We love to go on long walks through the neighborhood and the local park. Our Charlie Brown loves car rides! My husband is great with animals and loves to play with them! We also have a 3 year old girl who is learning to play with our dogs as well and a full of life 6 year old boy who loves animals, so playtime is all the time here! There is never a dull moment, that's for sure! If you aren't comfortable with your pet coming to our house, that's ok too! I can come to you! I'm a trustworthy, respectful, playful dogsitter as well. Transportation is not an issue. I can stay over night or I can just check in from time to time with your little one. It's all up to you! Let me know what you need and we can figure it all out. I am looking forward to hearing from you and to getting to know all of those adorable fur babies!!!! "Ready to spoil, walk, pet and play! With our family, it's always a fun day!!!" I work for myself so my schedule is never an issue! Whatever may be needed, I will make happen. However, written instructions are always helpful! I don't have a fenced yard. However I do have a runner line that your pets can be hooked to outside so they can play as much as they want to without worry!!

About: I've had experience taking care of dogs since I was the age of 10 years old. I have done this for family and friends for many years and even assist with grooming needs. I also have experience with giving medications to pets as I have worked as a veterinary assistant in the past. I am currently working at an elementary school but going to school to allow me to have a work from home job. Until then I am more free in the afternoon and evening but I am able to free up some time in the morning to help out. During the summer I do summer camp, working the afternoon/evening shift; however, I am able to adjust my schedule as needed. I have a fenced in yard here at my house so my dogs have free range of the back yard, however when we did not have one we had them out at least every hour. Our dogs get feed twice a day, morning and night, but I can switch however to fit your pet best! During my free time my boyfriend and I like to take our dog, Rico, to go hiking and swimming. We would love to be able to bring him a friend!

About: I've taken care of cats all my life and dogs from time to time. From back when I was a teen at home with our family cat to my own Tuxedo Kiwi I've been caring for cats all my life. I have a deep understanding of cat body language, respecting their boundaries, and providing the attention and care they need. I work from home as a software developer and am looking for something to break up my day between calls and project tasks. Being a remote worker means I don't get much excitement day to day. Let me change up my day to day by helping you out with your pets! I live in my own home with plenty of space for walks, trails nearby for exploring, and an open and clean home for time away from the sun.

About: Hello! I am a responsible, dependable, young working professional but a lady of many trades! One of those side gigs includes pet sitting furbabies! I am very outdoorsy and enjoyed hiking and trail running with my dogs (my Jack Russell Terriers recently passed away). :( In my undergrad days I worked for a professional petsitter company and have checked on a variety of critters over the years. I have cared for pets in a variety of settings; including overnight visits, transports, daily walks or just hanging out for play time. I would be happy to take your fur baby out for a hike or a game of fetch! I've cared for everything from puppies, horses, farm animals, wheel chair doggies, old kitties and everything in between! As a child I had a desire to be a vet and much prefer spending time with animals (small and large) over humans! When I am not out in the forest adventuring you can usually find me hanging with cute fur babies and talking to them like they are humans. :) I am also human wilderness first aid and CPR trained. I try to work with people on scheduling as best I can! I have a fairly flexible schedule but need a heads up to accommodate usually. I am a early riser and let my dog out super early so welcome early a.m. visits as your place or mine. Can also accommodate hectic travel schedules, I.e met at airport late flight arrivals, change of plans. I have a unfenced yard but plenty of property for daily walks. Property sits against fenced in horses on 1 side. I am routinely around during the day.

About: I've always had dog(s) in my household since I was a little boy. I've seen them all, hyper dogs, lazy dogs, mean dogs, social dogs, and dogs that think that they're human. In my experience in dealing with all of these personalities I've noticed one trait that is essential in dog-care, patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of, I've seen it all. Trust me, I've seen the nitty, the gritty, and the nasty...nothing can scare me away. In terms of my tangible experience, I've logged an immense amount of hours volunteering at animal shelters and pet-sitting for various friends and family. I'm a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so if you leave your dog with me, I guarantee that we will be going on runs and playing outside.

“Mandy will go above and beyond for your doggos! We had to leave our dogs for the first time and she came and walked them, made sure they had food and water and was even willing to clean up some. She has really put our minds at ease while being out of town and will definitely use her services in the future ?”

About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15 years old. I’ve worked in 2 vet offices as a kennel assistant, so I have experience bathing, simple grooming, administering medication, and walking. I recently graduated from the University of North Alabama with a degree in biology. I would love the opportunity to look after your pets for you, I know for me my dog is much more than just a pet. She’s my baby, and I’ll treat your kiddos the same way I treat mine: with love and affection! I have plenty of free time to care for your animals. I’m more than flexible with scheduling and cancellations, so my availability is wide open. I have one other dog in the house, a red Doberman, and she’s never met someone she didn’t love. She’s so lovable and gets along with every dog she’s ever been around. I walk my dog daily and it would be no trouble at all to walk yours too.

Nicole S.
“For 9 days, Nicole took excellent care of our cat, Tigger, while we were on vacation. Nicole came over daily, gave him food and water, cleaned his litter box, and gave him attention. She did exactly what we asked her to do. Before our vacation, Nicole was nice enough to come over 3 or 4 times so that Tigger could start to get used to her (she didn't ask to be paid for this, but we paid her anyway.) Tigger doesn't like strangers, but Nicole was able to be his buddy while we were away. When we arrived home, we found Tigger to be happy and well taken care of. We hope that Nicole is available next year to watch Tigger for us when we take another vacation.”

Brendle W.
“Brendle did a fantastic job caring for Bubba while I was away. She was very flexible with her schedule, during pickup and drop off times, which took some of the stress off traveling. She ensured he wasn’t alone, and got all the attention he needed. I could tell by Bubba’s demeanor that he enjoyed his stay, he didn’t look stressed like he has in the past. Would definitely recommend Brendle!”
