“My baby had an amazing time with Amiee. She sent regular updates and photos, and reassured me, since it was his first time staying with anyone else. Got him back this morning, and she was able to help us out when we had to extend. I'd be happy to bring him back anytime :)”

“They did a great job caring for Rosemary!! I got updates every day, and Rosie seemed like a happy and healthy girl when she came back home. We have already booked again for another weekend!”

About: I’m 36 years old and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve had both small and large breed dogs, puppy to senior. I’m an animal lover. I will take very good care of your fur baby. I clean houses part time but still have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can board, walk, and do drop ins and doggy day care weekdays and weekends. My schedule is flexible. My yard is not fenced in but I can take your pet outside to play on leash or without leash if they don’t run off. I can watch in your home or mine . I have 3 kids who will love your fur baby just as much as you do.
“Kristi is phenomenal! She took my babies in last minute. She gave them their own huge room with a ginormous cat tree. They were extremely comfortable and had no stress whatsoever. She cared for them as I would, I have no doubt they were comfortable in their home away from home. I never worried about their food or their environment. I would most certainly recommend her and use her again a million times over. Thank you for everything Kristi!!!”

“Our dog had the best time with Leslie and her dogs. She was so well taken care of had lots of outside play. I enjoyed seeing many wonderful pictures. I would definitely book again.”

“Ray was great!! With Kobe being a big dog he was prepared with enough space and updated us daily with pictures. Seeing Ray's daughter interaction with our puppy was a plus keeping him entertained.”


“Ronda and her family made sure my baby was right at home. I was struggling trying to find somewhere to keep my big baby that wouldn’t keep him in a crate all day until someone could come get him out to play with him! Ronda made sure I was comfortable as well as Griffey with his stay with her. I can’t wait to use her again for my baby cause I know he enjoyed himself there with her!! Thank you so much for making sure my baby was safe and comfortable during his stay with you!”

“Sarah was wonderful! She sent daily pictures, had a great set up at her house for pet care, was friendly, fast to respond and flexible. She was a joy to work with and I will be contacting her again next time.”

“Kordell was amazing! This was my first time ever using Rover and I was a nervous wreck, but Kordell communicated effectively and sent daily updates and pics! Definitely will book again.”

“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”

“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer.

We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”

About: I have been caring for cats for 24 years, so I understand their unique personalities, behaviors, and needs. Whether they're playful and energetic or more reserved and independent, I know how to adjust my approach and make them feel comfortable. I'm patient with shy cats, experienced with administering medication, and attentive to subtle changes in behavior that might indicate stress or health issues. My goal is to create a calm, trusting environment where cats can feel safe and cared for while their owners are away!!

About: As a stay-at-home mom and experienced dog owner, I’m used to managing routines, details, and different personalities. I’m calm, reliable, and very attentive. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always send updates and photos so owners never have to wonder how their pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to plan visits consistently and reliably. I build my day around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they’re visited on time, fed according to their routine, and given attention during each drop-in. I don’t overbook, so each pet gets focused care. I care for pets in their own home by following the owner’s routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow feeding instructions, refresh water, provide potty breaks, playtime, and attention based on the pet’s energy level and personality. I’m comfortable giving oral medications if needed. During each visit, I monitor for any changes in behavior and make sure your home is secure before leaving. I also send photo updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Jenn — a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I have two fur babies of my own — Moxxi, a sweet lab mix, and Obi, a gentle Staffordshire terrier mix — both rescues with big hearts and friendly personalities. I offer boarding and daycare in my home so your pets can feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own familiar space. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and can tailor visits around your pet’s unique routine. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, medication, or just a little extra TLC, I’ll be there to care for them like one of my own. You’ll receive regular photo updates and quick responses while you’re away — I know how important peace of mind is when it comes to our furry family members. If your pet has special needs, training cues, or specific routines, I’m happy to follow them closely to help your pet feel at ease. Your fur baby will be treated with patience, love, and a little extra spoiling 🐾 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer consistent care throughout the day. I’m available for potty breaks, walks, check-ins, and overnight stays depending on what your pet needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent, their environment calm, and their safety top of mind. I always follow your instructions closely — whether it’s feeding, medications, potty breaks, or playtime — and make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure before I leave. I approach each pet with patience, respect, and lots of love, tuning into their unique personality and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I aim to create a peaceful, predictable experience that helps them feel safe and cared for while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing — because trust and communication matter just as much as belly rubs. 🐶💛

I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes ranging from Yorkies to Newfoundlands. Experience with blind, deaf and elderly as well as dogs with mobility issues. When your dog stays with me -Please bring food and a leash! -Also strongly suggested is any favorite toys, bones, treats or blankets to make them feel comfortable with the transition -Crate if he/she is crate trained or used to one -If your dog has any special feeding instructions or a specific walking schedule please let me know so I can accommodate them best. I currently make my own work schedule so will quickly be able to adapt to your pet(s) needs. I typically feed dogs twice daily and then allow for play time in the backyard. I have a large yard with plenty of room for dogs to play. Can use a leash if need be. Water always accessible. Can use a crate if preferred.
“Poppy is special, not just to me, but to everyone she meets so traveling with her can be a challenge. I always want to make sure she is cared for in a loving, safe, and comfortable environment. After a last-minute confirmation that I needed to be in Talladega for three days, I was extremely lucky to find Cassandra and her husband. They took wonderful care of Poppy during the day while I worked, and I was still able to have her with me overnight, which made the whole trip so much easier. Cassandra was responsive, communicative, and sent great photo updates, which gave me total peace of mind. I highly recommend her for any pet-sitting needs in the Birmingham area especially if you’re traveling between Birmingham and Talladega. Great experience all around!”

About: I have over three years experience of volunteering at a pet clinic, as well as owning everything from a Standard poodle to tea cup Chihuahua! I am a stay at home wife, working primarily from home within Odenville AL. Therefore my schedule is always flexible and open! This also means I will always be with your pup or cat during boarding!

“Brittaney is so sweet and my dog loves her! I noticed a significant difference in his temperment on the days she took him for walks. He is much happier when I get home from work and the pictures she sends me of him always make me feel like he is in good hands.”
About: I’m an animal lover and enthusiast who has grown up taking care of all types of pets and worked in the veterinary medicine industry since I was 17 years old. I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds, and because of my job I am comfortable administering medication of all types, including injections. I’m also very willing to work with the more “troublesome” pets. I’m currently in school getting my veterinary technician certification and need help making some extra money on the side. I hope you consider me to take care of and love your fur babies❤️ I currently work part time at a vet clinic and my Classes are usually done by early afternoon so I will have more than enough time to take care of your fur babies as needed. With my working background I am comfortable with any food restrictions, medications, walking, crating, and care your pet may need to be happy and comfortable. I will make sure to give meds, food, and specific care instructions extra attention as needed.

About: I have worked in the veterinary field for over a decade, and in animal rescue before that. I grew up in a household with an array of pets- birds, rodents, fish, dogs, cats, rabbits- and have had dogs, cats, and a chicken on my own. Even in college, I had a pet fish because I missed having a critter companion! I love senior pets (the oldies are the goodies), pets with disabilities, one eye, no teeth, etc. I provide pet sitting in your home (no overnights), so your pets can stay where they are most comfortable! I am conscious about locking up your home, sending an update and/or photo of your pet, and following your instructions for your pet’s care. I can let dogs out in your own yard, or we can take a walk around the block. I will spend some time cuddling or playing with your cats (if they like company!). **Feel free to message me with any questions if there is something missing on my profile, or if you would like to verify specific dates or pet care services. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I am typically available over holidays and weekends. I can accommodate once a day visits, and sometimes can come by twice a day. I double check that all pets are accounted for prior to leaving your home - and will notify you if I did not see a pet during my visit. Since cats are super adept at hiding, I like to know their typical hangout spots before you leave so that I can look for them there. I verify that I have secured my entrance/exit points and will send photos or videos locking up so that you can also share this peace of mind.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Growing up, I was the go-to person in my family for all things animal care. In 2019, I adopted the first animal of my own, a Goldendoodle named Cooper. After adopting him my love for animals grew tenfold and I decided animal care is my passion. Since then we have also adopted a Poodle named Callie and two tabby cats named Oliver & Kevin. The love I have for these animals is just indescribable and it’s what made me want to dive into pet care and make this my everyday job. Animals are my true passion and I dream of one day owning my own boarding and daycare facility. I’ve gained valuable experience working as a manager at a local daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for a wide variety of pets. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or any other type of animal, I’m here to provide the best care possible. I’d love to share my experience and provide your pets with the care, comfort, and security they deserve while you’re away. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I’m dedicated to turning my passion into a professional career. Caring for animals is what I do every day, and it’s my number one priority. I’m eager to expand my experience by looking after a variety of pets, beyond just my own. With my flexible schedule, I have plenty of availability throughout the week and am ready to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight care, or just providing companionship, I’m here to give your pets the attention, love, and care they deserve. I’m experienced in all aspects of animal care and take great pride in ensuring each pet feels comfortable and well-cared for. Whether your pet has a unique feeding schedule, requires daily medication, or whatever the case may be, I’m here to provide the individualized care they deserve. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel safe and secure, and I’m dedicated to giving them the attention, consistency, and love they need.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I don’t just “watch” your pets—I care for them like they’re my own. With years of hands-on pet sitting experience, I focus on building real trust with both pets and their owners so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’ve trained several puppies and understand the patience, consistency, and attention they need, and I also have experience caring for senior pets and their specific needs—whether that’s slower routines, extra comfort, or medication reminders. I pay attention to the little things—your pet’s habits, personality, and favorite routines—so they feel safe, loved, and right at home. My goal is simple: spoiled pets and completely stress-free owners. I’m currently building my life coaching business, which only requires about 2–3 hours of work per day—and it’s all done from my laptop. Because of this, I’m home and available most of the time, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available for drop-ins, boarding, house sitting, and overnight care as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play safely and get fresh air. I also have an extremely loving 3-year-old cat who is very friendly, gentle, and used to being around other animals. I tailor care to each pet’s needs and personality. For larger dogs who need extra exercise and stimulation, I provide fun, exercise-based games and active playtime to keep them happy and engaged. For smaller dogs—or pets who simply want more affection—I’m always happy to slow things down with snuggles, lap time, and relaxing together (TV time included!). If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to follow their normal routines closely so they feel safe, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. My goal is to create a loving, calm environment wherever your pet is staying.
“Ashlyn is the BEST. Flexible, kind, and plays with our puppy until puppy is tired. Ashlyn also walks her and gives obedience treats. We are very happy with her in our home and will keep booking her services.”

I have a fenced in back yard of an acre and a half so your fur baby can have plenty of room to run around and enjoy the sun! I have 3 friendly dogs of my own to keep your pup company! I live in a lively house so your pup will never be spending their days alone!

About: Hi! I’ve always had a deep love for animals, especially after caring for my senior pup in their final years. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important it is to make pets feel safe and comfortable. I now enjoy caring for all pets (except snakes!) and I’m happy to match their energy with walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Whether your pet needs a calm, gentle environment or an active companion, I’ll treat them like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full time but I usually have a few days off during the week/weekend. I’m always looking for a way to stay active each week. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room. I’m respectful of other peoples homes and will always leave them better than I found them.

“My baby had an amazing time with Amiee. She sent regular updates and photos, and reassured me, since it was his first time staying with anyone else. Got him back this morning, and she was able to help us out when we had to extend. I'd be happy to bring him back anytime :)”

“They did a great job caring for Rosemary!! I got updates every day, and Rosie seemed like a happy and healthy girl when she came back home. We have already booked again for another weekend!”

About: I’m 36 years old and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve had both small and large breed dogs, puppy to senior. I’m an animal lover. I will take very good care of your fur baby. I clean houses part time but still have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can board, walk, and do drop ins and doggy day care weekdays and weekends. My schedule is flexible. My yard is not fenced in but I can take your pet outside to play on leash or without leash if they don’t run off. I can watch in your home or mine . I have 3 kids who will love your fur baby just as much as you do.
“Kristi is phenomenal! She took my babies in last minute. She gave them their own huge room with a ginormous cat tree. They were extremely comfortable and had no stress whatsoever. She cared for them as I would, I have no doubt they were comfortable in their home away from home. I never worried about their food or their environment. I would most certainly recommend her and use her again a million times over. Thank you for everything Kristi!!!”

“Our dog had the best time with Leslie and her dogs. She was so well taken care of had lots of outside play. I enjoyed seeing many wonderful pictures. I would definitely book again.”

“Ray was great!! With Kobe being a big dog he was prepared with enough space and updated us daily with pictures. Seeing Ray's daughter interaction with our puppy was a plus keeping him entertained.”


“Ronda and her family made sure my baby was right at home. I was struggling trying to find somewhere to keep my big baby that wouldn’t keep him in a crate all day until someone could come get him out to play with him! Ronda made sure I was comfortable as well as Griffey with his stay with her. I can’t wait to use her again for my baby cause I know he enjoyed himself there with her!! Thank you so much for making sure my baby was safe and comfortable during his stay with you!”

“Sarah was wonderful! She sent daily pictures, had a great set up at her house for pet care, was friendly, fast to respond and flexible. She was a joy to work with and I will be contacting her again next time.”

“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs both full time and part time since I was around 14. I was the sole caregiver for my previous dog (American Staffy) for 4 years as well as pet sitting for family. I’m currently home from college and work from home, so I am able to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I’m also an active person who loves outside. I have a fenced in backyard as well as a very walkable neighborhood with ponds and trails. If needed, I also have a crate available.

“Kelsey was great with Dexter. He made himself right at home during his first stay with Kelsey and her pups. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout the week. Will be rebooking with Kelsey.”

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my entire life, but currently I have a 7 year old golden retriever I treat like my child! I’ve always trained all of my dogs myself and participated in many safety training classes regarding training. I am currently in graduate school and unemployed, so mostly it’s just me and my golden at home most days, so I have plenty of spare time to help in your pet’s care! I am open to boarding and house sitting, but also happy to do drop-ins or just walks! I have a big fenced in yard and a sweet golden who loves making new friends to keep your pup company! I have plenty of room to crate your dog if needed.

“Chase was amazing and sent photos of our Birdie each day. When we returned from our trip, we asked to extend her say for an extra two nights. Chase was able to accommodate our additional stray. Highly recommend!”

“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer. I honestly think Su is going to have separation anxiety from Freya, she loved playing with her so much!! Ashley sent daily updates with photos/videos. We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”

“Excellent service & care!! This was our first time not only using Rover, but having a pet sitter. I highly recommend Whitney as she cared for our pupper dog like she was her own!! Thank you so much!!”

“Addison was so great! I was so nervous about having to board my pup for the first time. But Addison took great care of her she got so much love and attention! I also got pictures daily and multiple pictures most days! Will definitely be be booking with Addison for anything in the future!”


“Kmya was awesome! Very responsive and kind. My cat had a good time and was safe. Kmya sent pictures of my Lil fur baby without being prompted. I'll definitely tell everyone about her!”

“Holly watched our little 8 month old schnauzer for 3 days. Our pup hadn't been around any dogs or people and we thought she might be a handful. Holly took great care of her and made her feel like it was her home away from home. We will definitely use Holly again when the need arises and highly recommend her as a dog sitter !”
