“We had a last minute need for a sitter and Ann-Marie was absolutely amazing! We are so glad we found her- she took great care of our Stanley and sent plenty of updates, pictures, and videos to keep us assured of his condition throughout the stay. Would totally book again! Thank you Ann-Marie!”


“Sorelwing is the best. She has cared for my little multiple times. She is actually always my first choice. I get pictures to keep up with my little one as well. You will not be disappointed.”



“Ashley was great. She took great care of my two dogs while I was on vacation for the week. I would higher recommend her and I will be using her again.”

“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.”


“Helena took good care of 2 high energy puppies. She was flexible in rescheduling and helping with pickup and drop off. I recommend Helena for cats or dogs care.”


“Alvin was treated like royalty at Whitney:s. The family loved on him and gave him special attention.. We had no doubt we had left him in good hands. We definitely will be calling on Whitney again when we need a pet sitter!!”


“I’m so glad that I found Rachel to watch my high energy labradoodle for the week! This is my first time using Rover so I was nervous about how my Max would do, but he loved it! Rachel took him on walks/hikes and sent me videos and updates every day. You can tell that she really loves animals and is very knowledgeable about them. Would definitely recommend letting her keep your fur baby!”


“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.”


“Our dogs really enjoyed staying with Ray! They had access to a big backyard and we got so many cute pics while they were there. I definitely recommend!!!”


“Ghost had the most fun at her house!! He swam (for the first time) and played his heart out. He was so tired when he came back home and I love that. Rachel was so nice and ghost looked sad when he started leaving!! Highly recommend he will stay again”



“We loved leaving our dog with Barrie!! She provided regular updates and pictures which we loved! Our dog had a great time, we will definitely book with Barrie again!”


About: I've taken care of dogs for more than 20 years, including 3 years when I maintain a walking & sitting service on a sailboat. Dogs & I have always connected ❤️🐾 I am a college professor, so I work from home all summer long! I have a fenced backyard and large, open area with several couches and windows for maximum nature watching! I have a fenced backyard and a gentle mini-giant doodle who loves everything. I also have a home security system to keep us all safe. Lastly, I love to share photos & updates with the furparents, as often as wanted!

“We love Jordyn! She’s kept our dogs a few times. She is so accommodating, and our girls LOVE her. They get so excited when they see her. It’s the best feeling knowing they’re having as much as we do when we go out of town!”


“Lia and Daniel were so caring with my dog Fenway. He is a rescue pit mix who has some separation anxiety when at normal boarding places, but not with them (except for the initial few hours after I dropped him off, which should be expected)! She sent updates throughout the duration of my dog’s stay to keep me updated and I can tell she has a great heart for animals.”


“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! 😄”


“We never had to worry about Sam. He was in great and caring hands. We will definitely use Wes again next time we are in town. Thanks for taking such great care of our pet.”


“Jessica was so good at keeping me updated about my pup. She figured out how to get him to eat and he seemed very happy.”


“Lesley is amazing! So kind and my dog absolutely adores her. My dog always runs in tail wagging and has the best time with her dog Scarlett. Highly recommend!”


“Louann and her husband took wonderful care of Vida!! I wish I was local, so that I could use them all the time! I can tell Vida enjoyed her time. 100% recommend. 10/10.”


“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! :)”
