“They were fantastic! They took care of our baby who is a special-needs dog and made sure he was taking care of and he fell in love with them! In fact, it seems like he wanted to keep them and not us! Lol thank you so much! That’s what we wanted; someone to love our baby like we love on him.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 20. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets—and I treat each one like my own. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and those with special needs, and I know how to read body language and respond calmly and confidently in any situation. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priority. I work full-time but have plenty of availability for evening, weekend, and overnight care.

“Jennifer watched our two dogs for two separate week-long vacations this summer. She is our favorite and go-to dog sitter! She stayed at our house while we were gone and gave us frequent updates and pictures. The house was just as we left it when we returned- if not cleaner. I appreciate her calm presence and the fact that she walks our dogs a lot! I know that they are safe and happy when they are with Jennifer and I highly recommend using her!

About: I am SUCH an animal person. I have had pets my whole life, even more unique animals like hamsters, lizards, and even a tortoise! I love dogs of any size or age. I have experience with big dogs (my precious baby was a Cane Corso at 175 pounds), and I have also had little dogs (my Stella, the 3-pounds yorkie). I took care of both of my dogs until they passed, so I also have skills and patience with senior/elderly animal care. I also dog and cat sit quite frequently in my home town. I love walking and being outside and can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I moved to the Huntsville area for the summer and I have completely open availability. I’m looking to work, exercise, and get out of the house. I’m happy to help any time of the day and in any way I can! I will not be offering pet sitting in my home, however, I am open to all other services. I love going on walks and playing with all types of animals, so I am happy to help in any way I can.

From dogs and cats to snakes and lizards (yes, even bugs!), I believe every creature deserves love, respect, and the absolute best care. I’m the proud mom of two senior dachshunds, Buddy (15) and Casey (13), who have been my world since birth.

About: I have over 2 years of pet-care experience, but I have loved animals my entire life! In 2021, I started a job at the Wiregrass Humane Society. There I gained experience with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes, from baby to senior. I learned how to read body language and how each specific breed acts. I also gained experience with special needs animals, including giving medications whether it be oral or injected. In 2022, I started a job at Wags & Whiskers, where I still currently work when I am home from college. Here, I have gained experience working with multiple dogs in a group to keep the group fun and playful! I have learned even more body languages of dogs with each other and how to care for special needs babies. Caring for animals isn’t what I do, it’s who I am! I could not imagine doing anything else in life. It is truly my passion! I am currently a full time student at Troy University! I have plenty of time outside of classes to come check on your fur babies! :) As someone who has years of animal care experience, I can promise that any animal I encounter, whether it be in my home or someone else’s home, will always be treated like they are my own. I would love nothing more than to be able to love on and take care of your babies!!!!

About: I worked in a Doggy Daycare and Boarding facility in my home town for the last two years, through which I gained experience in both basic animal care and handling and administering medicine, and basic medical emergencies such as seizures, heat-related illness, and bloat. Before that job, I spent several years pet-sitting for a family friend, who had 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 rats. I can certainly provide references for both. I also have my own dog right now, a 2 year old (very high energy) pit mix named Miller. I’m currently a student at Troy University but my classes are all in the morning. I also work part time at a restaurant but can work around that easily. I don’t work every day at the restaurant though, I have every Sunday completely free and have 1-2 weeknights off as well. While I can’t provide care in my own home due to my lease, I will provide lots of play time, love, and affection for your fur baby at your home, as well as feeding, walks, etc. I can adjust to whatever energy level your pet has- if they want to run laps around the yard, then run we shall.

“Olivia is a wonderful caretaker! She is always happy and quick to help anytime I’ve needed her. She loves animals and I believe she was pursuing veterinarian school at one point. She’s super sweet and communicative and absolutely does not mind going the extra mile for someone in need. She took care of my senior dog and mid-aged dog while I was on Christmas break out of the country. She follows instructions and doesn’t hesitate to reach out with concerns. Olivia is a trustworthy individual in all aspects, but especially with attending to people and animals. You will not be disappointed if you hire Olivia for any of your needed pet services.”

Over 19 pet parents in Troy have booked house sitting
Troy pet parents share their Rover experiences
Griffin was amazing with my dog for house sitting while I was on vacation. He is a 90 lb mix who can get a good case of the zoomies and isn’t the greatest walker, but she took him on in stride and showed him the same love we do. Griffin was always on time with her visits to make sure my dog got his food and potty breaks throughout the day - I didn’t have any bits of worry on my vacation. Her visits included long walks and I’m sure all the attention my dog needed. Griffin graciously volunteered to help check on other items that come along with being gone from the house which made my vacation much more worry free. My dog and I will be hoping to use Griffin for house sitting again. Thank you!
