“My dog Kona had another great stay with Kelsey! I would absolutely recommend her. She is super accommodating, quick to get back to you and sends the best photos. Kona always has such a great time playing with her dogs and going for walks on the beach.”

“Rachel was amazing! She sent us pictures and updates during stay and let us know of any issues our pup was having. My sweet girl has food allergies and Rachel reached out to let us know plus did what she could to help. Will 100% be using her again in the future.”

“I left my fur baby with Christopher and Sore for the weekend and after making my reservation, I realized that I had forgotten about my flight being at the Atlanta airport and the hour difference, so needless to say I had move my drop off time up.They were completely accommodating. Once meeting Sore I felt completely at ease, leaving cowboy with them.. I received updates, with pictures every day to see my boy was doing fine. I definitely would rely on their service again in the future..”

“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!!!”


“Barrie has been keeping our dog for several years now, and we are so thankful we found her! She treats Reagan as her own, sends lots of pictures, and is very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. It is such a relief to know Reagan is in the best hands while we are away.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Ray was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. My two are very new to boarding. They've never spent more than a day away from home, and with someone they didn't know. But for the most part, they did great. There were a few hiccups on their end, but Ray handled it beautifully. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you all booking with him. Again, I can't say it enough, he was absolutely AMAZING. Even with my Bipolar Dino and my ADHD Harley.”
“Lydia was so great without our baby! She sent update photos and messages and has lots of experience with handing difficult dogs. We will definitely be using her again! I felt very confident that my dog would be safe and taken care of in her hands.”

“Brittany is super awesome! Everytime I've brought my dog to her, he's exhausted for days afterwards, which is amazing since he's such a ball of energy. A tired dog is a happy dog, and from what I can tell, my dog is very happy at Brittany's place! I highly recommend giving Brittany a try! 😄”
“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”

“Libby was so wonderful. Our dog is so timid with everyone and I love how much care and attention she was given. I also loved the pictures and updates. My family will be using her again.”

“Chyna was absolutely amazing with our babies, Hampton and Willow! She cared for them overnight and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was attentive, loving, and made sure both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Hampton and Willow were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. We are so grateful for Chyna and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”

“Kayte was AMAZING! She sent me pictures and assured me that my puppy would be ok! She even helped me not to worry about him while he was with her! I would 100%. Board with Kayte and her loving family again!! They were phenomenal!”

“Cody and his wife were amazing! Not only did they treat Linus like a member of the family, but they were also super flexible when my flight was very delayed. Highly, highly recommend!”

“David and his wife are the best! Upon meeting them we knew our dogs would be treated like family with them. We were gone for an entire week and left both dogs with David and knew they were there n good hands. I got pictures of them on the couch being spoiled all week long. Our pups are worn out, thanks David!”

“Harold was so great!! Had a last minute need for some help with my pup, and so glad I chose Harold! Extremely accommodating for my GSP after a move from VA to BHM. Wasn’t ideal but Harold gave me the peace of mind (and CONSTANT updates) that helped me and my dog transition a semi-cross county move. 10/10 recommend.”

“Doug has cared for our little doggie, Freddy, a couple of times now. Freddy has diet restrictions that make for extra work, so we are very happy with Doug's attention and care. Great dog sitter! :)”

About: I first fell in love with cats when I was a little girl. I have a pit bull and Labrador , and the rest is history. I believe my calm demeanor puts most cats at ease, even the ones I have been told are shy around new people.

I keep frequent communication with pet owners, I’m able to accommodate to a dog needs, and am pretty knowledgeable about dog behavior to know their needs.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have two rescue pups of my own. I totally understand each baby has unique needs to live their own best life.

I also live directly next to a dog park and am happy to take them for an afternoon play! I have spent many years pet sitting in other people’s homes and am used to all different living situations for animals. I have crate trained my own dogs so can assist with that process, as well as take your baby on familiar walks and play time.

I’m also a canine coach at Dogtopia and have a lot of of hands on experience with dog behavior!

I make sure the animals I look after are well cared for, and the home I'm in is too if the service calls for it. I'm a strong believer of leaving places better than I found them so I love to tidy up to help your day be a little easier!
“Sarah was wonderful! She responded promptly and her home was perfect for Moose. She has a fenced yard, which I know Moose loved. He must have played with the other puppers a lot, because he slept the entire 5 hour drive back home. Thank you so much! Will definitely rebook if we are ever back in the area :)”

“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: **Privately Insured for Peace of Mind** I've been pet sitting since childhood for all kinds of pets. My care experience has even involved small mammals, piglets, arthropods, and repitlies. I particularly enjoy working with shy and anxious dogs and cats. As a sitter, I pay attention to the details, such as pet body language and making sure food and water bowls are cleaned, and I am diligent in keeping pets out of potentially dangerous situations. Overnight dog sits include at least one walk a day unless otherwise specified or the weather prevents it, in which case indoor playtime will be had instead. I am comfortable administering medications, including injections. I am avaliable for constant care overnights (no leaving the dog(s) alone) for an additional fee. I am self-employed, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I am avaliable for constant care for an additional rate. Most of my exercise comes from walking dogs, so I am more than happy to take the long route if your pooch is up for it! I am very careful with your pets, avoiding encounters with unfamiliar dogs or people to avoid conflicts. My food is never within reach, and I pride myself on keeping your home clean and ready for your return.

About: Having grown up with animals most my life…I pride myself in the ability to comfort and love your furry friend… Even from a distance. My special skills, are soft skills… Meaning that I work best with slow warm-ups for any anxious pets. But also, I’m ready for any high energy animals as well. I go to school, and work during the weekdays… But have a giant break in the middle of the day, for any pet care. Weekends work best for me. Making sure to adapt to whatever the pet owner, and pet need. Whether that means space, or extra attention… I can be that in-between person you request. I also pride myself on attention to detail… So will notice any change in behavior, or care necessary.
About: I've grown up around all sorts of pets all my life. My dad always brought around ex police dogs to train and multiple foster animals. Right now I take care of 3 donkeys, 4 goats, 2 pigs, around 30 chickens, 2 roosters, 2 cats, and 5 dogs including two French bull dogs, two large Belgian malinois and a medium sized mutt whenever I go back home. I also help train our dogs back at home in agility training, and overall love spending time with my animals. I'm currently working as a student 4 out of the 7 times a week with no classes Saturday through Sunday and finishing classes by 12:30 to 2 pm any other day. So I have a very flexible schedule to come pet sit the animals. The only time I cant pet sit is on Fridays from 6-10 because of Powerlifitng practice. Any pet that I will care for I will treat as my own. When I go out of time and have to hire somebody to come pet sit I want them to care for my animals as if they were there own. Making sure the pet has enough water, catches its breath after playing or walking outside, and is all settled down before I leave.

“My dog Kona had another great stay with Kelsey! I would absolutely recommend her. She is super accommodating, quick to get back to you and sends the best photos. Kona always has such a great time playing with her dogs and going for walks on the beach.”

“Rachel was amazing! She sent us pictures and updates during stay and let us know of any issues our pup was having. My sweet girl has food allergies and Rachel reached out to let us know plus did what she could to help. Will 100% be using her again in the future.”

“I left my fur baby with Christopher and Sore for the weekend and after making my reservation, I realized that I had forgotten about my flight being at the Atlanta airport and the hour difference, so needless to say I had move my drop off time up.They were completely accommodating. Once meeting Sore I felt completely at ease, leaving cowboy with them.. I received updates, with pictures every day to see my boy was doing fine. I definitely would rely on their service again in the future..”

“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!!!”


“Barrie has been keeping our dog for several years now, and we are so thankful we found her! She treats Reagan as her own, sends lots of pictures, and is very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. It is such a relief to know Reagan is in the best hands while we are away.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Ray was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. My two are very new to boarding. They've never spent more than a day away from home, and with someone they didn't know. But for the most part, they did great. There were a few hiccups on their end, but Ray handled it beautifully. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you all booking with him. Again, I can't say it enough, he was absolutely AMAZING. Even with my Bipolar Dino and my ADHD Harley.”
“Lydia was so great without our baby! She sent update photos and messages and has lots of experience with handing difficult dogs. We will definitely be using her again! I felt very confident that my dog would be safe and taken care of in her hands.”

“Brittany is super awesome! Everytime I've brought my dog to her, he's exhausted for days afterwards, which is amazing since he's such a ball of energy. A tired dog is a happy dog, and from what I can tell, my dog is very happy at Brittany's place! I highly recommend giving Brittany a try! 😄”
“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”

“Libby was so wonderful. Our dog is so timid with everyone and I love how much care and attention she was given. I also loved the pictures and updates. My family will be using her again.”

“Chyna was absolutely amazing with our babies, Hampton and Willow! She cared for them overnight and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was attentive, loving, and made sure both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Hampton and Willow were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. We are so grateful for Chyna and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”

“Kayte was AMAZING! She sent me pictures and assured me that my puppy would be ok! She even helped me not to worry about him while he was with her! I would 100%. Board with Kayte and her loving family again!! They were phenomenal!”

“Cody and his wife were amazing! Not only did they treat Linus like a member of the family, but they were also super flexible when my flight was very delayed. Highly, highly recommend!”

“David and his wife are the best! Upon meeting them we knew our dogs would be treated like family with them. We were gone for an entire week and left both dogs with David and knew they were there n good hands. I got pictures of them on the couch being spoiled all week long. Our pups are worn out, thanks David!”

“Harold was so great!! Had a last minute need for some help with my pup, and so glad I chose Harold! Extremely accommodating for my GSP after a move from VA to BHM. Wasn’t ideal but Harold gave me the peace of mind (and CONSTANT updates) that helped me and my dog transition a semi-cross county move. 10/10 recommend.”

“Katie and her family was so accommodating and wonderful to work with. I got daily updates and made me feel at ease while we were on vacation. Our weimerainer is an old girl and was t sure how’d she be but she ended up feeling right at home with Katie. 10 outta 10 recommend”
