“Our dog, Dixie, was cared for very well during her stay. We received lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. Kayte was very accommodating for us when we kept experiencing hiccups on our travels! We're so glad we booked with her and we won't even have to think twice about who to go with next time!”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“Kristen was an exceptional caregiver for my baby. She provided excellent care and maintained open communication throughout our absence. She went above and beyond to ensure his safety and well-being.”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“Carli was a huge help taking our pup on a last minute request! She has great communication and was able to work with a couple changes in our travel plans to work out best for everyone. She stuck to our dogs schedule to keep him happy and comfortable and we didn’t have to worry about him at all for the duration of his stay.”
“Doug did an amazing job with our puppy. He was very gentle and kind with her. It was our first time using Rover and first time leaving her for the weekend and I can honestly say I didn’t worry a bit. Highly recommend Doug and hope to use his services again.”
“Opol was a godsend . Poppie seemed really happy and comfortable. I would.most definitely use her again! Her communication was awesome and he ate all his food. Thank you again!”
“Kyler was absolutely amazing and the sweetest with my fur baby. She sent so many pictures of her while she was away from home, just to ease my mind and let me know she was ok. I will definitely book with her again!!!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“Great again! He is so patient and kind when I changed my drop off time about 10 times the night before! Tilly and Smore always come home tired and happy! Zero complaints and will definitely use David again in the future for any stays we need!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bleu!!! Ryan was great with Bleu, he sent photo updates, answered and replied to all my questions which gave me peace of mind. We had to change the dates bc we had an emergency and missed our flight. Ryan was so flexible and understanding. Ryan also has a lovely Mom and Dad, they’re a wonderful family and Bleu literally didn’t want to leave. I was shocked!! Im definitely booking Ryan again!!! Even if we arent going out of town I’ll be booking again just so she can visit her friend!!”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”
“Jonathan and family provided a home away from home for our doggo. It was a long trip for us—6 days—and I was worried about our pup. But he thrived! It was such a great relief for me. I’m so grateful!”

“Courtney always takes great care of my cats! They are very picky with people and have really warmed up to her! She's wonderful with animals, very communicative, and sends lovely kitty cat reports.”
“We normally only trust our pets with family. So I was nervous at first but Charlotte was very thoughtful, followed our feeding instructions, and sent cute pictures assuring us they were safe. We would definitely use her again.”
“Alana was absolutely wonderful watching my two cats while I was out of town for four days. She dropped in daily and sent fantastic updates and pictures each day, which I looked forward to and deeply appreciated. On top of taking excellent care of the cats, she went above and beyond by bringing my delivered packages inside so they wouldn't sit out on the porch. Alana is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I will absolutely be hiring her again in the future!”
“Elizabeth was great! She was good with my cat Nova who can be standoffish/cranky to new people and she does more than just the bare minimum you ask of her! She was also punctual. I’d definitely use her again”
“Kate did an excellent job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She kept us updated throughout our trip with informative messages and gave our pets plenty of extra love and attention during each visit. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. We would absolutely book with Kate again and highly recommend her!”
“Abby is an absolute gem of a cat sitter. She took such thoughtful and attentive care of my cat, and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which I really appreciated, and it was clear my cat was comfortable and well-loved in her care. She’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who goes above and beyond.”
“Loved Tanya and would use again! My cat's food, water, and litter was all good, and she apparently even cleaned up a mess my cats had made of some bread I forgot to put away according to my neighbor/grandmother (sorry about that, by the way!)”
“Kyler took excellent care of our kitties. It was clear that they were at ease in her presence and they felt comfortable enough to demand treats 🙂. I would definitely book Kyler again.”
“Ashlyn provided drop in visits for our 2 dogs while we were away. She was wonderful & took such great care of them. They warmed up to her very quickly & were in great spirits when we got home. Would highly recommend!”
“Kayte was amazing to work with! She communicated quickly, was knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and took great care of my 2 cats. I will definitely use her pet sitting services again and highly recommend her! Thank you Kayte for taking such great care of Ridley and Olivia and giving me peace of mind while I was away.”

“We really enjoyed having Sara as a kitty sitter, she was very thoughtful and attentive to my cats. She was also very flexible with time/adjustments and responded quickly 😊 will definitely be re-booking again!!”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone patient, reliable, and attentive to care for your cat while you’re away. I understand that every cat is different, whether they’re playful and social or shy and independent and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I’m extremely dependable, communicative, and have plenty of references from happy pet owners who trust me with their pets. I’d love to care for your cat like one of my own!
“I knew from the moment I met Sarah that she was a cat lover. I’ve got five kitties and was away for thanksgiving week. She came by twice a day to take care of my babies, properly fed, watered, poopy scooped and played with them, sending several pics of each visit. My kitties felt comfortable with her and she engaged all of them, even my scaredy cat. We all like her very much! I was able to enjoy my trip with no worries about my kitties. I will definitely have her over again and I highly recommend this wonderful young lady!”

“I cannot say enough good about Savannah! She is an absolutely amazing caretaker. She treated my little girl like she was her own. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would.”
“Opal was so wonderful! You can really tell she loves animals. I felt very comfortable that my babies were safe and in good hands. They had a blast running around outside and playing with the other dog. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day. I look forward to booking with Opal again!”
“Kyler is an exceptional doggy-whisperer and caretaker, and she has been a tremendous resource for taking care of my pup with both sitting and boarding services. She is incredibly easy to work with, always thoroughly communicative, extremely accommodating and, without a doubt, well-knowledgeable and experienced in what she does. My pup is always happy and exhausted after time with Kyler, and I'm always at ease knowing that she will be well taken care of in Kyler's company. The praise in this review is absolutely well-deserved!”
“I was so nervous to trust someone with my new puppy. However, Kayte was so kind, understanding and patient with me. Our puppy really blossomed in her care and enjoyed spending time with her family. She was excited to go back each day and was exhausted from all the playing when she came home. Great experience!”
“We were planning to leave our pups in a large kennel outside because we were only taking a day trip. Last minute, I feel that it is going to be too cold for me to be comfortable leaving them outside. David agreed to take them last minute, easing my concerns. We felt our pups were well cared for during their time with David. He kept us updated on them settling in. He sent us a video of our pups outside, behaving as they would if they were home. All of David's interactions with us during their stay allowed us to enjoy time with our family without concern. We are also sitters so, the fact that I would highly recommend David should speak volumes.”
About: I adore dogs and would love to take care of your family members. I work from home so I’m able to be a consistent companion during the day, have a fenced yard for play, am active and love to take walks (if your pup likes). My old gal was with us for 17 years so I have elderly dog experience. I’m so excited to love on your dogs. I work from home, so during the week I am here most of the time apart from going to the gym or running errands. On weekends if your pet can’t be left alone for a couple of hours just check in with me at booking! I have a fenced yard, no pets currently, and a son (17) who is super sweet but usually at school or soccer training. I’m able to provide frequent breaks and walks.
“My babies came home fully intact! No parts missing lol! Jessica was a great host for my children. She sent updates throughout the day along with photographs. From the moment I dropped them off I was confident I had chosen the right person for the task. She is a pleasant human with a big heart. Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!
About: Growing up, I always had several dogs in my home, and have even adopted two of my own. Over the years I’ve gained a lot of experience working with hundreds of animals with a wide range of breeds and pets of all ages and sizes. I have experience taking care of dogs anywhere from feeding to walking to playing (etc) for any age range and any size. As mentioned in the title, I have experience working at Birmingham’s local Humane Society and in that time learned a lot about animal behavior. This will help me ensure an animal’s comfort level, safety and trust during my time caring for them. I believe the key to taking care of animals is showing them genuine love and patience. I love animals and do this work to make some money on the side, but also because it brings me so much joy! All pets are considered family, so it’s guaranteed to treat them as such. Your pet’s happiness and safety are top priority so I aim to create a fun and stress free environment for everyone. I’m currently working side hustle jobs that give me the benefit of working with a very flexible schedule. Whatever your needs will be for me to properly care for for animals will be easily catered to during my time caring for your pet/pets. During my stay at a client’s home, I will be able to cater to the pet’s regular routine. I also am comfortable and experienced giving dogs medication if they are on a vet prescribed medicine. I am happy to discuss any needs of the household and go over any expectations of my tile in your space.

“Lawden is amazing! Zeus loves her and loves going over to her house to play. It’s so reassuring to know my pup gets the same love and and affection and correction 😅 he would get at home. Lawden provides a safe and stimulating and social environment for Zeus and he loves going to see her!”
“I reached out to Mrs. Kim on very short notice after my dog sitter bailed on me days prior to a week long vacation I had scheduled. Mrs.Kim was very accommodating with my request. She does frequent updates and made my baby a part of her pact, and now my dog loves it there! 100% recommend Mrs. Kim and her family and will be using her again and again !”

“Sam had a blast with Dana D. Drop off and pick up were so easy with clear communication throughout. She has a calm confidence that instilled trust right from the start. And she sent cute pics too! Our energetic pup was pleasantly exhausted after a playful day that included plenty of outdoor romping and stick fetching (his fave!). We were nervous to send our little Sammers for his first time with a sitter but couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.”
About: I’ve worked in a veterinary clinic as a vet tech in training, but what truly matters is my love for animals. From bouncy puppies to gentle seniors, I care for every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while keeping you updated along the way. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day. As someone with hands-on veterinary clinic experience and training, I’m comfortable building pet care into a structured routine—whether that means morning walks, feeding schedules, or evening cuddle time. Since I’m currently in school, my schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. For me, pet care isn’t an “extra task”—it’s something I love and look forward to. When I’m in a client’s home, I care for pets the same way I would in my own—lovingly and with respect for your space. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to playtime and routines, so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I keep things tidy, double-check doors and gates, and always treat your home with care. My goal is to make sure you come back to a happy pet and a home just the way you left it.
About: I cared for my family dog for 9 amazing years, giving me firsthand experience with senior care from administering meds to making sure older pups stay comfortable and happy. I’ve also had plenty of experience with small breeds and understand their unique needs. I’m not just here to watch your pet I’m here to understand them. I’ve worked with puppies needing basic training, senior dogs who need a little extra care, and even pets who are a bit anxious or shy. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply being a calm companion, your furbaby will be treated like family because that’s exactly what they deserve. I'm mostly working from home, so I'm basically always at home. Pretty flexible with my time as well, so I should be able to keep an eye with your babies. I have a fenced backyard and pet friendly house. I always make sure everything is clean and avoiding anything that can be chew or swallowed

About: My first friend was an old bulldog mastiff. My next one was a jack russell terrier. The list went on and on until I graduated college and took in my first little mutt. I've always had dogs, I've always found companionship and comfort in their presence. Growing up along side them, I've learned a lot about their behaviors. Just like people, every dog is so different! And it is such an exciting adventure to get to meet a new one and learn about them! If I walk your dog or do a drop in visit, know that I am devoted to making them as happy as possible! My senior chihuahua is blind and most owners don't allow another dog to be brought, so that is why I can't offer overnight stays. (If you are not most owners, feel free to message me and we can arrange a sleepover!) I also have an older boxer mix who is an awesome walking buddy if you don't mind. Other than my dogs, my current schedule is completely open to whatever needs you have for caring for your dog. I always respect the space I am in. "Leave it how you found" it is my motto. I like to spend a lot of time outdoors, and that means keeping a watchful eye at all times!
About: I have had experience with dogs my entire life. My friends and family have relied on me for their dogs and pets care in many occasions, and I have had dogs of my own my entire life.

My work from home job allows me time to cuddle, play, walk, and love on your four legged baby. I have a fenced back yard for your little one to play and use for their needs. I also have a 4 yr old mix fur baby of my own that can keep your fur baby company and make your fur baby feel at ease!

About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, from puppies to senior dogs and Chihuahuas to Great Danes! All of which I’ve had no trouble with as I’m extremely sensitive to dogs and their personalities/temperament. I’m especially good with active dogs because I love to play! So you don’t have to worry about your furry companion and I not getting along. I’m doing pet care full time for the summer and I will be doing online classes at UAB during the fall; I’m almost always available for you and your pet. I typically feed, walk or provide company and companionship for your fur baby. However this is very dependent on both the owner’s and pet’s needs. Please let me know what I can do for you!
About: I have experience with my own 2 dogs, a chocolate lab and a german sherpard. As well as helping friends and family when they need a pet sitter for their dogs or cats. I have limited experience with turtles, birds and lizards. I am currently a student, I am usually in class 8-12, so I will spend the afternoon, evening, or weekends open for pet sitting or drop-in visits. I have a fenced-in backyard for my two dogs. They are crate-trained; however, they are trusted to be in the home alone. They are well cared for, love people and other dogs.
About: Hey there! I’m Emily — I offer reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats, and I come straight to you. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, playtime, feedings, litter box scooping, or even baths, I’ve got it covered. I don’t do boarding or keep pets at my place, but I’m happy to help however I can in your home. I’ve got years of hands-on experience and also run a rescue, so I’m used to handling all kinds of animals, personalities, and needs. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make things easy, safe, and stress-free — for you and your animals. Let me know what you need! Pet care is nonstop for me — it’s what I do every single day. My routine revolves around walks, drop-ins, baths, enrichment time, and everything in between. I’m used to being on the move and keeping up with each pet’s schedule. This isn’t just a side gig — it’s a big part of my life, and I’m fully committed to giving every pet the time and attention they deserve. I provide care in my clients’ homes where pets are most comfortable and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible — whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or giving medication. I’m big on building trust with each animal and making sure they feel safe while their person is away. I always leave things clean, double-check food and water, and send updates so you know your pet is in good hands.
About: I have had pets most of my life. My dogs have been small breeds but I love them all. My dog recently passed away (age) and I thought how great it would be to love on others pets. I have a part time job with a flexible schedule so would be able to care for your pet most days. I would love to be of service. I am able to take your pet on walks, play with them to burn energy & whatever your needs are. These will be done at your house/neighborhood.
About: I’m 26 years old and work part time from home as an accountant! I have a lot of availability and time to spend with your pups! I have always loved animals especially dogs! I have cared for dogs of all ages from 6 weeks old to 15 years old. My childhood dog who passed away a few years ago lived until he was 15 years old. He was blind and deaf at the end of his life and required many medications and overall care.

About: My family has spent a lifetime caring for and loving pets of all kinds, from energetic new puppies and kittens to cherished senior companions. Big or small, feathered, furry or fluffy, they are always treated as family. Our own dogs are trained using German commands, and even our cat is leash-trained, reflecting the time, patience, and care we invest in animal companionship. I understand how important your pets’ health, safety, and happiness are, and I recognize that busy schedules can make it challenging to give them the attention they need. It would be my privilege to provide dependable, compassionate care for your beloved pets and to treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I am a homeschool mom of two independent children and many fur babies including two dogs, three cats, and a few extras. I am also a youth pastor so my schedule is flexible and late nights not a problem. I have a safe fenced yard and lots of furry companions; however, I will not be sitting animals in my home as I prefer this space to stay limited to my own.
About: Hi! I’m Connor. I am passionate about dogs and giving them the love and care they deserve. I have spent time volunteering for Shelby humane as well as adopting my two dogs. I have also both cared for and been around dogs my whole life. I would love to go above and beyond and treat your fur baby like I would my own! I am currently in school for real estate. this helps provide a flexible schedule for my potential clients. My dog is very active so we have lots of time to play! I am happy to follow any instructions you provide for your home, while making sure your dog is safe and taken care of! I am very diligent to ease your mind
About: I love all animals - especially dogs and cats. I have a cat named Zelda and two dogs named Goldie and Simba. I walk and take care of my parents, Bischon named Lacy, when they go out of town. I worked at Pet Palace during my time at Auburn University. I was responsible for bathing, feeding, and walking all the dogs that would board with us or come to doggie daycare. I worked with all breeds and sizes of dogs. I live across from Heardmont Park with a fenced in backyard and a big park and walking trail at the front of my neighborhood. I work full-time, so I'm do not have as much availability during the week. But I am available most weekends. I can also do walks and drop-in visits. I may be open to house sitting for repeat clients once I get comfortable. I will treat your dog or cat like one of my own. I suggest a meet and greet to make sure that they are comfortable with me before booking the stay.

“Our dog, Dixie, was cared for very well during her stay. We received lots of photos and updates throughout her stay. Kayte was very accommodating for us when we kept experiencing hiccups on our travels! We're so glad we booked with her and we won't even have to think twice about who to go with next time!”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“Carli was a huge help taking our pup on a last minute request! She has great communication and was able to work with a couple changes in our travel plans to work out best for everyone. She stuck to our dogs schedule to keep him happy and comfortable and we didn’t have to worry about him at all for the duration of his stay.”
“Opol was a godsend . Poppie seemed really happy and comfortable. I would.most definitely use her again! Her communication was awesome and he ate all his food. Thank you again!”
“Kyler was absolutely amazing and the sweetest with my fur baby. She sent so many pictures of her while she was away from home, just to ease my mind and let me know she was ok. I will definitely book with her again!!!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“Great again! He is so patient and kind when I changed my drop off time about 10 times the night before! Tilly and Smore always come home tired and happy! Zero complaints and will definitely use David again in the future for any stays we need!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”
“Jonathan and family provided a home away from home for our doggo. It was a long trip for us—6 days—and I was worried about our pup. But he thrived! It was such a great relief for me. I’m so grateful!”
“Carson is amazing and we felt very confident that our Rosie would be safe and loved while in her care. She is always super quick to respond and sent pics and updates throughout the stay. She has a fenced in yard, which was a huge plus for us. We'll definitely be booking with Carson again!”
“As dog parents for the first time, we didn't know what to except leaving Curie for a week! Rachel took care of everything. She always kept us updated and sent an occasional pic when we missed her. Surprisingly Curie came back calmer, more obedient, with less biting habit. I'll surely recommend her service. Thanks Rachel.”
“Cody was awesome! Received daily updates with pictures and videos. Exactly what this mom needed! Charlie seemed very happy and enjoyed the other dogs. Will be using Cody again!”
