“Allison walked our dog Henry while we were away. She was prompt, responsive, and provided thorough updates and photos. She took great care of Henry and was thoughtful to make sure he didn't overheat during a particularly hot spell. Will definitely book her again!”

“As always, Nichole is amazing. She sends thorough reports. She’s so prompt. You literally never have to wonder when you book with her. She cared for our pups while we were staying in the hospital for labor and delivery and the peace of mind I had about our pups at home was truly unmatched.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole like, ranging from a senior, special needs poodle to large, young weim. I’m also a mom. My job turned to work-from-home with the pandemic, so I have a lot of flexibility in the day to walk dogs, pop in for feedings and bathroom breaks, etc. I understand pets are part of the family, and I will always treat your pet like the little fury human they are. It’s not just about making sure they have food, water, and bathroom breaks, but it’s also about giving them the love and attention they need while their humans are busy at work or out of town. I will never just drop in and rush out, but will be sure to take the time for lots of scratches behind the ears and play time they need.

About: I grew up with a cat of 14 years and later my family adopted a husky which stole our hearts! Since, I have cared for not only my sisters set of 2 beautiful golden retrievers since they were brought home but other dogs of clients and I currently live with a cat! I am currently a 4th year medical student at UAB. My clinical rotation schedule currently is extremely light for the month of February I after 12 PM. And through March April in the first half of May, I am pretty much fully free. Under my care, pets will be brought outside for a potty breaks or a walk only on a safe leash. No dogs will be brought anywhere near roads or construction where they could get injured.
“Courtney was great with my furbaby. She was timely, professional, kind, dependable, and took good care of my baby on his walks. We look forward to working with her again soon. Great job!!!”

About: Hi, my name is Meg! I am a play therapist for my day job and love channeling that same care and attention into my furry friends I get to care for outside of my 9-5. I currently work four 10 hour days at my day job so I am available during the day Friday -Sunday and open any night of the week for house sitting. I view my pets as apart of my family and will treat yours the same way! I am happy to communicate and share photos as I care for your furry family member. Always feel free to reach out!
About: I have been taking care of peoples pets since I was 12 years old. Love all kinds of pets and would love to be your go-to pet sitter! I work full time, but have time in the morning early afternoons or evenings to let your animal out for a break! Also have lots of time on the weekends. I will follow all of your suggestions and/or instructions and make sure that I provide the care that your pet needs. Your pets will get the attention and services they need!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and everything between. I’ve had a lot of experience with senior pet care. Ultimately I’m happy to make your pet feel at home, in routine, and loved while you’re away! I’m a college student with all online classes so I have plenty of time to give your pets all the attention they need. Weekends are a great time for me and I know that’s a perfect time to for pet parents to be away for a little! I really value keeping your pet in their routine and in the comfort of their home. I have a dog and cat myself that are the sweetest but a smaller apartment space so limited opportunities in my home.
About: I’ve been around and loved dogs quite literally all 27 years of my life. From a teacup Chihuahua to a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix, I have owned and loved dogs of all shapes and sizes. I truly believe they are man’s best friend and should be treated as such! My living situation does not allow for pets at this time, so I am happy to interact with pets as much as I can. I’m currently working full time in church ministry, which allows much flexibility during the week days. I am fairly open on all days of the week except for Tuesdays. I also am happy to dog sit in the client’s home on weekends and during the week as needed. For all services, whether walks or overnight stays, I would be happy to provide the client with as many updates as they would like throughout the service, as well as send picture updates! I am happy to do whatever makes the client feel most at ease and comfortable.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 10 years! I love all animals just like my own! I have a dog of my own that I’ve trained since a puppy! I’ve personally pet sit for dogs from 8 weeks to older dogs! I’m currently in school getting a Masters degree! I fit pet care into the afternoons as well as on the weekends! I love spending time with animals as it allows me to destress from school! I love being outside and have experience taking all dogs, from low to high energy on walks! In home I’m able to crate animals and safely play with them!
About: I have around four years of consistent experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have an older dog of my own, so I understand senior care firsthand, including monitoring comfort, energy, and health needs. I also regularly pet-sit for families with elderly dogs, which has strengthened my ability to provide calm, attentive care. In addition, I have cared for puppies and understand the patience, structure, and supervision they require. Having experience with both puppies and senior dogs allows me to adapt easily to each dog’s unique needs and routine. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. My availability can vary by semester, but I always communicate clearly and plan ahead to ensure pets receive consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety and trust in every home I enter. I carefully follow feeding instructions, walking routines, and medication schedules when needed. I monitor behavior closely, keep environments clean and secure, and always respect a pet’s comfort level. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including seniors, and understand the importance of calm, reliable care.

About: I have had several dogs and cats of my own and am very capable of taking care of both. I adore animals and wanted to be a vet for many years. Being away from home has made me miss taking care of animals so much and I would love to love on and take care of your pets while you are away. I am extremely enthusiastic, friendly, am not scared to get dirty while playing, and LOVE any type of animal. When I was away at school, sometimes I would go to the dog park (without a dog) and the local animal shelter just so I could play with them. I promise to take them on walks (if they like to walk), give them lots of belly rubs and scratches, to feed them on schedule, to play with them, to let them out when needed, to fill their water bowls, to give them any meds they may need and to be their family and give them lots of love while you are away. I adore pets and would love to take care of your furry friends!!
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and responsive pet sitter based in Birmingham with a strong focus on communication, consistency, and quality care. With 2 pups of my own, who are my entire world, I greatly understand the importance of trusted pet sitting care and I have 20 years experience loving and being around animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to following routines closely while providing attentive, personalized care. You can expect timely updates, photos, and a smooth, stress-free experience from start to finish! I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I promise to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve! I work from home and set my own schedule which is a huge blessing! Because of that I'm able to be very flexible and can be around most of the week I’m flexible and more than happy to take your pup on a walk around the neighborhood or even a long walk around the park nearby. If you just need somebody to sit with your pup at your home, I have plenty of experience making sure your dog is loved on and cared for in their own environment.
About: I’ve been a teacher/artist for 25 years. I enjoy walking dogs and consider it the best way to exercise! During school breaks and summer I am 100% available to love on your pet! During the school year I can walk/visit before and after school hours and again before bedtime. I love animals but I’m too scared to get attached to one of my own so I’ve come here to help others take care of theirs. As an artist, most of my commissions are pet portraits and it absolutely feeds my soul...they are definitely members of the family and not just pets. I would love the opportunity to help with your pet to keep from having to board them at a vet...no fear of kennel cough from me! Just send me a message with your requests and we will work something out. Before school, after school and in the evening I am available I follow your instructions for care to the letter. I talk to your animals like they are little people and treat them like they are mine.
About: I worked at an animal clinic as a kennel technician for 1 year. This included: walking, cleaning kennels, feeding, and bathing dozens of dogs each day. The word got around that I was good with dogs and cats, so I have been taking care of them ever since. Growing up with dogs as a kid, I’ve been told that I have a natural bond with them! I have a high-energy doggie of my own and do everything I can to make sure he is able to get his energy out every day! We usually play fetch in the backyard every morning before work and end the day either at the dog park or on a run! I always do my best to integrate my pet into my own schedule, in the most fun way possible! I have a fenced in backyard for some playtime in the sun, and then a big comfy chair for my buddy to rest.
