“My cat, Atticus, absolutely loved Kait as a sitter! He warmed up to her immediately and felt very comfortable requesting food and pets from her throughout the week. :)”

About: I grew up on a 100-acre farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. My experience includes both everyday and medical care for livestock and household pets, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and individual needs. I have implemented treat based training as well as clicker training with my own pet. Over the years, my family bred and raised both small and large dog breeds, ranging from Beagles to Great Pyrenees. This hands-on experience has given me confidence working with animals of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels — from high-energy working dogs to elderly and disabled pets requiring extra patience and specialized care. Animal care has always been a true passion of mine. I believe animals are a gift to everyone they meet, and I am committed to providing compassionate, reliable, and attentive care to every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, allowing me to provide reliable, flexible, and attentive care for every animal I work with. I also attend school virtually while completing my degree in therapy, which gives me the ability to maintain a consistent schedule dedicated to pet care. My long-term goal is to open a therapy practice incorporating equine-assisted therapy to help support and heal others through the connection between humans and animals. I prioritize providing care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and able to maintain their normal routines and environment. I believe staying in a familiar space helps reduce stress and anxiety while allowing pets to feel safe and secure. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication administration, and any special needs. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while treating both your pets and your home with the highest level of respect and professionalism.

About: I believe all animals are “good boys” and “good girls“. Unfortunately, as an owner, you can’t always be by your pet’s side so please allow me to be your second pair of eyes, ears, and voice. I am a proud dog and cat mom so I am familiar with most of your pets’ behavior. You will absolutely receive updates regarding your pets wellbeing and the occasional cute pic :) I hope you consider me as your care taker and I look forward to hearing from you! I work through the weekdays between 7am-4pm and get a 1 hour lunch break. My weekends are typically free for house sitting/ frequent drop ins. I will accommodate to the owner’s rules and routines as well as I can. Your pets’ needs are prioritized during my care regardless of my schedule.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, rabbits, and even the occasional chicken. As a longtime pet owner myself, I understand how much our animals mean to us. I treat every pet I care for like part of the family, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s a daily walk or a weekend stay, you can count on me to keep your furry (or feathered!) friend safe, happy, and loved. I’m available for midday walks, check-ins, and evening visits. I also offer overnight house sitting if you're looking for someone to keep your pets company overnight. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their usual routine, feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I respect each pet’s personality and any specific instructions you provide. If I’m doing overnight care, I maintain a calm and cozy environment, making sure your pet gets attention, companionship, and consistency while you’re away.

“Bre did a great job taking care of our three cats! very friendly, good communication and thorough, it’s nice to know we have someone who cares taking care of our babies while we’re out of town!”

“Hannah has stayed with our pets several times now and whether overnight or just dropping in she is very punctual, communicates proactively, and is a pleasure to work with.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs. I am also experienced in cats, I’ve had one my whole life. I know how to take care of newborn kittens and puppies. I am an experienced dog bather. I’ve worked on dogs of all sizes and ages, and temper levels. I am trained in dog nails and behavior. I am ready to be there anytime a client needs me for their fur babies. I am home most the week with my fur babies. I have my own pets so I know how important it is to make your fur baby feel safe, I’m 100% down for cuddles and just making sure they get all they need!

“Felicia was great!! She wrote out her daily interactions with my cats. She played with them and gave medicine. She texted when she had questions about their care.”

About: I am an owner of two Jack Russell Terriers who make my life incredibly entertaining. Both of them are rescue pets. The relationship I've built with them has introduced me to a whole new part of myself. I love to dote on others' fur babies as well. I'm a professional musician who does this as a way of supplementing my income, so my schedule is *usually* accommodating to almost any pet owner's needs. I prefer to do drop ins and some house sitting. I don't typically want to bring my own pups along with me until I know your dog's temperament. Even then, it is rare. They are beginning to show that they’re senior pups. If you think I'll fit your needs, don't hesitate to call. I'f I'm available, your pups will be well cared for and smothered with affection.

About: I come from a home who owed/bred dogs. I’ve always had a pet. I’ve dealt with puppies, kittens, raccoons, birds, iguanas, and fish. I do crate train as that’s what we do with our own puppies. We provide a safe home for your fur babies, with lots of love and play. I already care for my one fur baby. We have a routine we like to follow, it helps with the pets and children in the home. I have a fenced in yard and generally crate train in my home. We have a routine for walks, feeding, and playtime.... lots of playtime.

About: I have mostly dog sat in the past, but love cats just as much! I have assisted some dogs with health conditions take their medicine. Will strictly follow your preferred pet care according to dogs' or cats' needs. I work M-F, 8-5 but have flexibility. Sometimes I travel or work remotely. If working remote, I can drop in as needed or take my work with me if an animal requires more attention. I have always loved animals growing up. I do not currently have in-home accomodations for pets. However, I would love to meet and love on your pets in their home, and can even assist you by keeping the home clean before your return! My motto is, I like to leave things better than I found them. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

About: I’ve taken care of pets for my friends and family since I was a child. Taking them for walks, giving them baths, house sitting or bringing them to my house to care for them. I’ve always loved it! I have many years and types of animal experience. Let me know how I can help you out! I’m currently working from home- meaning I can be at your house 24/7 to care for your animals! I have a flexible job so walks, medications, and love and attention to your pet with be my priority! When staying in clients homes, I assure the animals stick to the schedules created by their parents! It’s important to me to keep the whole house running while my client is traveling- mail, trash, lawn services, etc. can all continue like normal with me there to keep things running smoothly! I also beleive it’s my job to leave a home “better than I found it” so you can return home with no extra chores from my stay!

About: I grew up just north of Birmingham in a rural town. We always had animal companions of some kind. I’m partial to cats, but I would make friends with most 4 legged animals if they let me! I’m currently a flight attendant and my husband and I have SIX cats of our own. Three are from a litter we took in a year ago intending to foster them until they found homes, but we soon realized they were already home. As a flight attendant, my schedule is sometimes up in the air. I always know my full month flying schedule on the 19th of the previous month. I’m typically available 3 days a week. We have six cats who own our home! Three males and three females. All are spayed and neutered. I’m completely comfortable scooping litter and cleaning up after dogs outside!

About: My love for animals began as early as I can remember. I have always had a deep reverence for all life around me. I'm currently a student at UNA studying environmental science and sustainability. I hope to one day have my own farm. I've had a wide variety of pets over the years; gerbils, Guinea pigs, a box turtle, and many of my friends growing up had dogs as well. My first true animal companion was our family dog, Logan, who was a rescued Golden Retriever/ German Shepard mix. He passed away at age 15 when I was 13 on Christmas morning (no joke- of all days..). My family took a long time to get another dog because we felt that no dog could ever top Logan. My parents did get another dog since, a rambunctious and loving beagle mix named Molly. I have also had an orange tabby cat named Señor Platáno of which whom I allowed to be indoor and outdoor while I went to school at Kent State University, but he was tragically hit by a car. To this day I still think of him more as a dog the way we were so close. I haven’t been in the right place financially to have a dog of my own but at my most recent job I was able to interact with dogs on a daily basis and it always made my day. I decided to sign up for Rover because I am currently unemployed and enrolled at UNA so I thought what better way to earn some side money than to become a dog walker/sitter. I look forward to meeting as many furry friends as I can and I will truly cherish every encounter I am fortunate enough to have. Thank you. I am currently unemployed so my schedule is practically wide open. I will be resuming my education at UNA in the Fall, but all of my classes will be online so my schedule shouldn't change much. I live in Florence and I like to stay local with my hobbies so I’m not usually ever far from the Shoals area. Dog and cat care will fit well with my schedule. Pet care at a clients home will always be carried out with honor and reverence towards the clients, their home and their pets. I was a boyscout growing up and my loving parents taught me well to respect people and animals so when I leave a home I will leave it in the same condition or better than when I arrived. Your pet will get my undivided attention and care as I will treat them like I would my own, with love and respect.

“We seriously have grown to love these two more and more! Hannah and Hunter have quickly gone from a stranger to a star sitting sitter for my babies. They are quick to respond and ask plenty of questions when needed. I couldn't be more grateful for them!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments! Any special requests, such as a bath is absolutely no problem for me!! I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to give special attention, I will also be sure to keep me schedule updated! I would love to complete any special requests or just give them some extra hugs! Of course until they know me, I allow them to get comfortable around me before making any big moves!

“Presleigh was wonderful! We had last minute change of Thanksgiving plans and she didng hesitate to pick us up and come feed our sweet kitty. She even went the extra mile and fed the strays we take care of that live outside and filled our water bowls that were low when she absolutely did not have to! If you want someone who can be asked to do one thing and she helps out with extra stuff, this is your girl!”
