1. Sally M.
“Sally is fantastic. It was a long trip for us and the dogs started to get stressed, but Sally was calm and helped them through it. Excellent communication throughout.”
2. Savannah C.
“Savannah was fantastic house sitting not 1 but all 3 of my puppers! I have three big pups, over 300 lbs of dog, and she was great with all of them, taking care of my old guy's needs, and sending me pictures of the relaxed doggos. Couldn't recommend any higher!”
3. justyce j.
“Justyce did a great job with our pets. They seemed tired out when we got home. Even with a small scheduling mistake they were willing to work with us to take care of all of our animals.”
4. Alicia R.
“Alicia was wondering. Came to visit prior to watching our fur baby Emerson and this past weekend was the first time we have ever left him. He will be 5 July 13th. She frequently sent pictures to show how comfortable he was and keep us updated on their day! Emerson appeared to be extremely comfortable and happy! He didn’t even bark “YELL” at us when we got home like he does when we have to go to run errands. We have another vacation planed in July for a whole week and we feel extremely comfortable her house sitting again. Kudos to Alisha!”
5. Isabel M.
“Loved Isabel’s care of our Willow! She also washed the sheets and blankets, totally unnecessary but we loved it!”
6. Carson C.
“Carson did a great job with our two dogs. We would definitely book her again!”
7. Annabeth T.
“Annabeth has been a long time pet sitter for us. We have had anywhere from 9 to 19 dogs, a cat, reptiles and other mammals over the years and she has always taken very good care of them. We love to go on vacation so she comes in and keeps them fed, loves on them, plays with them and walks them when they are rambunctious. She’s helped us deliver new puppies and came to help us monitor the babies during the first few days of birth. She’s also bathed our dogs if we needed that before we came home. Very well rounded sitter, you can’t go wrong hiring her.”
8. Lyn T.
“We had Lyn come and house sit/dog sit while we were on vacation. When she first came to meet Jax he took to her instantly. I sent detailed notes about his personality, walks and mealtimes for her to make it easy to care for him. Unfortunately we had to return home early due to a hurricane. Lyn was understanding and flexible when it came to modifying the booking for us early. Lyn took great care of our home and our dog Jax. Will definitely book again!”
9. Gina H.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and I absolutely love them all the same. I currently care for two beautiful boys and would love to bring more into my life! I'm currently unemployed and focusing on dog sitting 6 days a week. I have a reliable car and full focus on your fur babies as needed! I have two leads in my yard that go pretty far, with shade and water. Dogs only outside for potty. Mostly inside with house all day.
10. Karissa W.
“Karissa did a great job. Very reliable. Definitely recommend her”
11. Debbie H.
“Debbie is by far one of the best sitters I've ever bought my dog to! She went above and beyond when she looked after my fur baby! I can say from personal experience if you pick her you won't be disappointed”
12. Kaylee M.
“Kaylee has a HUGE heart for animals and it surely shows in the way she cares for my dog, Murphy. The love is very mutual, as Murphy is always happy and excited to see her. If you haven’t already booked with Kaylee for your pet sitting needs you are missing out. I promise your furbaby will be well cared for.”
13. Jessica W.
“Jess was absolutely awesome. She worked with us to find a time to meet us and our pets ahead of a long booking, and she was so easy to talk to. I could tell she really loves animals, and I was certain our dog and cat would be in good hands. When she came to stay, she kept communication flowing and sent lots of photos of the animals, which was great. She also willingly took on the care for our (many) houseplants, and she left the house absolutely spick and span, which was such a pleasant surprise when we returned from vacation. I’m pretty sure our animals missed her after we returned! We’re looking forward to the next time we can have Jess back to the house to watch our pets.”
14. Crystal S.
“Crystal did an outstanding job watching our fur babies. She sent pics every day and updated us way beyond the expected. We would definitely book her again.”
15. Samantha D.
“Samantha was great with Stella! She accepted a dog/house sitting gig at the last minute and came over to meet Stella that day and get acquainted. She sent lots of pictures and made me feel confident that Stella was in good hands.”
16. Kylee K.
About: I have been helping my mom with dog sitting since I was 5 years old when we got our first golden retriever. Ever since then she has been dog sitting with my help and now I am branching out on my own since I’m in college now. I have been working at a vet clinic since my junior year of high school and have gained so much pet care experience as well as medical experience for cats and dogs. I currently work full time at the vet clinic (typically 4 full days). Our team at work is very flexible and makes it easy to make drop in visits to check on and let out the fur babies during the day. I am available to do drop in visits multiple times during the day or do overnight stays with the fur babies. I follow the pet's established routine for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks, ensuring consistency and comfort. I engage with pets through play, walks, or interactive activities to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I monitor pets for any signs of illness, administer medications if necessary, and ensure they stay hydrated and well-fed. I secure the home, ensuring doors and gates are locked, and pets are safe indoors. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding household safety.Many pets need affection while their owners are away. I make sure to provide love, attention, and comfort to ease any anxiety. I keep the owner updated with photos, messages, or calls to ensure they feel connected and reassured. Overall, my goal is to provide a caring, consistent, and stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.
17. Anna W.
“My pups had a lovely time with Anna. She hung out with them and made sure they had all the comforts of home and someone sweet and kind to look after them. Upon my arrival home, the pups were happy to see me but clearly had been loved while I was away. It is always such a comfort to know that they are being taken care of by a loving human when I can't be with them. Thank you, Anna!”
18. Saige J.
“Saige was amazing! She went out of her way to take care of my cats while we were on vacation for a week. She not only fed them and lived on them she cleaned up after them! She even sent us updates and pictures so we knew they were all ok. I highly recommend her.”
19. Baylee W.
About: I have been pet sitting and loving my own dogs since i was 13. I have been relied on by a variety of people to feed, walk, day sit, give medicine, and love on pets. I’m currently working full-time as a Gymnastics coach in Bessemer Monday-Thursday. I moved down here from Huntsville about 2 years ago and really miss watching and helping take care of other peoples fur babies. Available whenever needed! If you have questions, just ask me. I do not have a fenced in yard. I know how to walk and can control bigger dogs. I know how to do almost everything you need to for dogs and i am willing to do so.
20. Jabari D.
“Jabari will take great care of your amazing pet. He will make sure they go out for walks, he will feed them, as well as give them love and care. He loves animals.”
