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!!!!

I am openly available 7 days a week for pet sitting any time! I am also open to keeping more than one animal at a time. I have a nice big yard and trail that I like to walk my dogs on :) They enjoy chasing the birds. I have crates for toting and I enjoy taking them to the local park.

Your pets will be given the same care & love I give to my own. I am currently a stay at home dog mom. Your pets will have my undivided attention at all times or if they’re more independent we can just hang out on opposite ends of the couch and watch a movie (: I live in a second story apartment and have two very friendly pups of my own. We allow our dogs on the couch and bed so your pets will be treated with the same courtesy (:

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.

I’m the proud mom of two senior dachshunds, Buddy (15) and Casey (13), who have been my world since birth. I understand the deep bond we share with our pets, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply giving them belly rubs and playtime, I ensure each pet gets the attention, love, and care they need. I also specialize in accommodating special requests and needs—so whether your pet requires extra patience, specific routines, or special care, I’m here to help.
