We had a great experience! They took wonderful care of our dogs and made us feel completely comfortable and confident while we were away. Our pups came home happy and well cared for, and the printed photos they sent home with us were such a thoughtful touch. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!

About: I have a half acre fenced in yard, a 20x10 run pen, have fostered senior dogs and puppies for the shelter near us, I have worked with trainers before on how to get tips for our own dogs so I can be better equipped to care of others as well. I can also care for almost any animal at my house while you need a sitter. Small to tall! (Sorry I don’t have the set up for horses) Fish to big and small dogs, all the way to reptiles! I have experience with all of them. Daily, your animal will be watched 24/7. I strive to make sure every animal in my care is cared for like my own. So, your animal will never be left for more than a hour or two (the occasional doctors appointment). They will also be taken care of just like my own in they will get PLENTY of exercise! My dogs and dogs I watch are crated when we are not home. (Of course without collars on!) I spend at the very least 2 hours per day exercising with my dogs in the backyard. High energy dogs need outlets! I have experience from Yorkies to Shepherds to Belgians.

About: Ever since I can remember I have felt very deeply about animals and their wellbeing; my dream since I was a kid was to become a Vet, and so I did! Not only do I love to be around animals, but I also have the knowledge and patience to take care of their needs, healthcare, and wellbeing. I have always taken care of our family pets. The feeding, the grooming, and of course, the walks in the park and exercise :) For the past 6 years I have taken care of all my friends and relatives pets, when they go to travel, and even tend them when they get sick and need special treatment at home. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for evening pet sitting and care in clients’ homes, and I also care for pets staying with me, where they aren’t left alone for long periods. On weekends, I’m available all day. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I can care for pets in my clients’ homes, always following their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m careful about safety, making sure doors and gates are secure and maintaining a clean, calm environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard and two friendly kittens who are used to being around other animals. Pets are always supervised and introduced safely in a relaxed, loving space.

About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.

About: I've been training small puppies with basic dog commands and crate training since 2014. I started my petting-sitting services in Berkeley, California. I love to walk, feed, bathe, and love puppies. I recently bought a house in Reform, Alabama, and I welcome my fur friends to join my Havanese AKC Woody Ivy and me. I'm currently in my Ph.D. program at The University of Alabama. I mostly attend classes twice a week while I am on campus. On the days I am not attending class, I am at home spending quality time with my puppy, gardening, and doing fun things around my house. I believe in constantly transitioning and supervising my puppy, offering different activities day and night. We have a routine that starts at 6 am. He goes potty and has the liberty to sniff trees or go back to sleep. He eats breakfast at 7 am, goes for a walk at 8 am and 6 pm CT (4 pm CST), plays until nap at 11a, lunch/snack at 1p, plays with toys until he is ready to play fetch, and is obedient training outside, and then we people watch on our porch (which he loves to do) while I read. We do everything together! And when the night is young, he goes to bed inside his crate, next to my bed, at 9 (ish) to rest up for another day of play.

About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.

About: After having to beg my parents for my first dog growing up, and raising him all on my own, I developed an appreciation for the love and attention raising a pup requires. I look forward to providing the best care for your pets as well. I currently have a very free schedule and have the ability to provide dog sitting/walking services 7 days a week. Can’t wait to provide your pets with the best possible care! Unfortunately I’m unable to offer boarding services; however, whether I’m just taking your pet for a walk or sitting them, I will treat them as if they’re my own.

I'm really not a petty person. The reason I have waited so long to leave a review is because of this. Ashlynd did a very good job. With that being said, I paid $896.00 for 2 visits for 9 days. Ashlynd stay about 5 minutes each time. She also was putting the cat waste in the kitchen trash can. My house smelled bad compared to what I normally smell. I know this because I went over the footage of my nanny cam. She clocked in and out at the appropriate time but didn't stay for the 30 minutes that was said. I know my cats are not to social but if she stayed they would have come out more. I really like her but I will never pay that much again. In fact I believe I should get some kind of refund because she didn't stay that long.

About: I have professionally cared for dogs and cats for the past four years, from working at Swan Kennels boarding facility in Columbus to training and caring for professional sled dogs in Alaska and Wyoming, I am happy to provide love and care for your sweet fur babies so that you can enjoy your time away without stress & worry! I am currently working part time in Downtown Columbus so I have a very fluid schedule to run back and forth to your home and make sure your beloved pets are getting everything they need while you are away, from outside time to feeding to walks! I provide supervised outdoor time and play if you have a fenced yard, otherwise I provide leashed walks around your neighborhood to make sure your pet is getting adequate exercise time and the stimulation they need and deserve. If you crate your pet I am happy to make sure they are safely crated and cannot get into things they shouldn’t when I am out of the house with proper access to fresh water/food. I can also administer oral medication if required.

About: Hi! I have loved all animals my whole life! I've always had a dog in the house. I have experience with all sizes of dogs from chihuahuas to Huskies! I have 3 fish, 2 dogs (Husky and Australian shepherd), and 1 chameleon! Haha I have house sit for friends and family who own cats as well. I love playing and taking them for walks and just cuddling! I am a full time student so the majority of my time is spent online doing school but I am in pilot training so I fly for a couple hours everyday, but other than that I'll be home the majority of my time. I can't offer services in my own home because my husky is reactive towards other dogs. I can care for the animals in your home though. I am very respectful and can stick to pretty much any schedule the animals need.

About: I’ve had cats for the last 4 years and have also cared for cats in the past and for friends and family. I’m experienced with feeding, litter box care, playtime, and providing patient, attentive care. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I always respect their routine and comfort level. I genuinely enjoy spending calm, quality time with cats; wether through play, companionship, or simply being there, so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.

About: I've owned cats my whole life from newborn to senior, and I take pride in being called a crazy cat lady. I've vonluteered at the cat house in West Point just to pet some kittens. I currently own 3 cats, and one of them is a senior cat who is 20 years old and still in good health. I have two years of experience working as a kennel tech where I assisted in administering oral medication, feeding, assisting the vet in examination procedures and surgeries. I'm very aware of cat body language after learning from Jackson Galaxys methods from “my cat from hell.” I've trained my cat to respond to commands like “please, up, and sit.” I also never forget a cat's birthday.

About: My dog Lucy and I love to play. We go for 30-minute walks (at least) every day, run around and play fetch in the backyard, and play tug of war with her toys throughout the day. We would love for your pet to join us! When I was little, I was the hired pet sitter in the neighborhood, plus I also had my own pets growing up. As an adult, I've had my own pets and have been hired to pet-sit for several friends' dogs and cats, both short- and long-term gigs, over the years. I have experience administering oral medication to both dogs and cats and some dog grooming experience (although grooming is not my passion, ha). Weekends are when I consistently have the most time to focus on your pet, but I sometimes have some availability on weekdays. Just ask and I'll see what I can do! We have a fenced-in backyard (tall wooden fence) that is the size of an additional lot. The yard has a few shade trees and is mostly open grass. We have several toys to play with, both in the backyard and inside, including a water sprinkler. Your dog will not be left unattended in my care unless I need to run an errand briefly and they are secured according to your instructions (crated, etc.) We have a large dog crate your dog can use if you'd like so you don't have to bring yours back and forth. There are several safe places to go for walks nearby with lots of grassy areas.

About: Hi, I’m Britney! 🐾 Ask me about military family discounts! 🐾 I have open availability on weekends and before and after 7:30-4:30pm Monday- Friday. Before joining the military, I spent three years as a kennel technician, so caring for dogs and cats truly feels like second nature to me. Whether your pet wants a playful walk, cozy cuddle time, or just someone patient and gentle to help them feel safe, I’m here to give them all the love and attention they deserve. I treat every fur baby like they’re my own, because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to care for mine. I work full time right now but can provide pet care before work, during my lunch after work and on weekend whenever needed from you! :) As a pet care provider, I offer tailored services to meet the specific needs of pets in my client's home since my dog prefers to be alone.

About: After having to beg my parents for my first dog growing up, and raising him all on my own, I developed an appreciation for the love and attention raising a pup requires. I look forward to providing the best care for your pets as well. I currently have a very free schedule and have the ability to provide dog sitting/walking services 7 days a week. Can’t wait to provide your pets with the best possible care! Unfortunately I’m unable to offer boarding services; however, whether I’m just taking your pet for a walk or sitting them, I will treat them as if they’re my own.

About: Hi! I have loved all animals my whole life! I've always had a dog in the house. I have experience with all sizes of dogs from chihuahuas to Huskies! I have 3 fish, 2 dogs (Husky and Australian shepherd), and 1 chameleon! Haha I have house sit for friends and family who own cats as well. I love playing and taking them for walks and just cuddling! I am a full time student so the majority of my time is spent online doing school but I am in pilot training so I fly for a couple hours everyday, but other than that I'll be home the majority of my time. I can't offer services in my own home because my husky is reactive towards other dogs. I can care for the animals in your home though. I am very respectful and can stick to pretty much any schedule the animals need.

About: I understand how important it is for your pet(s) to be walked a certain way, have their food prepared exactly how they like it (because if not, they simply won’t touch it), and be groomed to their personal comfort. That’s why you can enjoy confidence and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by a genuine animal lover who will do everything possible to make them feel safe, happy, and relaxed. I live in the county, about 18 minutes outside of Starkville, and I’m happy to provide dependable, loving care for pets in the surrounding area. I offer flexible scheduling with reliable, on-time visits, because pets thrive on routine and familiarity. Whether your pet needs a morning potty break, midday check-in, evening walk, or consistent daily care while you’re away, I make their schedule a priority. You’ll never have to worry about rushed visits or missed routines — your pet’s comfort always comes first. Safety, trust, and consistency are at the core of my care. I follow all instructions closely, maintain secure entries and exits, and keep a watchful eye on your pet’s behavior and wellbeing during every visit. You can trust that your home and your pet are always handled responsibly and with full attention to detail.

About: There has never been a time in my life when I didn’t take care of some kind of animal. Mostly dogs and cats growing up. I would love to help take care of your fur friend! I work as a nurse part time. I’m happily married and we have two fun, rambunctious, sweet boys. We have 2 dogs, horses, cows and a cat. My schedule is pretty flexible and I love going out for walks whenever I can. Especially when it’s with my fur friends. We live on 100 acres down a dirt road in the middle of the country. Not much goes on around here! We have a fence, but it’s set up for cows and horses. Our dogs run free inside and out; However, the pets I sitter will stay inside and go out for walks and bathroom breaks frequently for safety guarantee.

About: I have a half acre fenced in yard, a 20x10 run pen, have fostered senior dogs and puppies for the shelter near us, I have worked with trainers before on how to get tips for our own dogs so I can be better equipped to care of others as well. I can also care for almost any animal at my house while you need a sitter. Small to tall! (Sorry I don’t have the set up for horses) Fish to big and small dogs, all the way to reptiles! I have experience with all of them. Daily, your animal will be watched 24/7. I strive to make sure every animal in my care is cared for like my own. So, your animal will never be left for more than a hour or two (the occasional doctors appointment). They will also be taken care of just like my own in they will get PLENTY of exercise! My dogs and dogs I watch are crated when we are not home. (Of course without collars on!) I spend at the very least 2 hours per day exercising with my dogs in the backyard. High energy dogs need outlets! I have experience from Yorkies to Shepherds to Belgians.

About: Ever since I can remember I have felt very deeply about animals and their wellbeing; my dream since I was a kid was to become a Vet, and so I did! Not only do I love to be around animals, but I also have the knowledge and patience to take care of their needs, healthcare, and wellbeing. I have always taken care of our family pets. The feeding, the grooming, and of course, the walks in the park and exercise :) For the past 6 years I have taken care of all my friends and relatives pets, when they go to travel, and even tend them when they get sick and need special treatment at home. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for evening pet sitting and care in clients’ homes, and I also care for pets staying with me, where they aren’t left alone for long periods. On weekends, I’m available all day. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I can care for pets in my clients’ homes, always following their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m careful about safety, making sure doors and gates are secure and maintaining a clean, calm environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard and two friendly kittens who are used to being around other animals. Pets are always supervised and introduced safely in a relaxed, loving space.

About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.

About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.
