“Katie was an amazing sitter for my dog over the weekend! She was incredibly friendly and made me feel at ease by sending frequent updates and photos. It was clear my pup was well cared for and happy the entire time. I really appreciated her communication and how attentive she was. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


“Kayte was great at sending photos and updating us on our dog, Dixie. Our girl came home happy & tuckered out. We would definitely book again!”


About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little girl. I have always loved playing with them and loving them. They are such great entertainment and being so much joy to life! I have a very flexible work schedule and work from home part of the day. I enjoy taking evening and morning walks so pups will get plenty of exercise. I have a fenced in backyard and there is a fenced in dog park on the property where I live. There is a very safe area for walking all around my complex.

“Amazing dog sitter! Lauren kept me updated the entire stay with our pups. She made my dogs feel comfortable and was flexible with drop off and pick up scheduling. Would definitely recommend her and rebook her!”


“Dear pet owner, you may find yourself looking for reasons to go out of town so you can leave your pets with Jessica. She is such a sweet and caring soul and took such good care of my cats for me. I can’t imagine a better caretaker for animals.”


“Loved having Charlie, her daughter, and her puppies take care of our dog. It was a wonderful experience as far as care and communication are concerned. Could not recommend more!!!”


“Karla is fantastic!! She was flexible on pick up and drop off times, sent pictures/videos everyday to keep me updated as well. Goose got a lot of exercise and attention. I’ll definitely book Karla again in the future.”


“Mel was absolutely outstanding! I can’t say enough good about the love and care she gave our pup while we were away. She sent photos everyday and made sure we were in the loop on everything going on. Would highly recommend and will use her again without a doubt.”


“I came to Birmingham for a wedding during NYE weekend and Laderius and his family were so accommodating and helpful. I put in the request really last minute but while speaking with them they had no problem watching my little on Karter. I’m always nervous leaving him but they sent pictures and were extremely welcoming. Whenever I’m back in town, I most definitely will contact them again.”


“Westyn was great! He kept me informed on my pups experience was I was away. Pictures tell a thousand words and I could tell she had a great time and felt right at home. I will definitely rebook again!”


“First time boarding our pup anywhere and very happy with the decision! Kelsey is accommodating and made our boy feel right at home. Communication was excellent and we got daily updates/photos of our boy while we were away. We will definitely be taking him back for daycare and boarding!”


“Annie has great communication and was available at short notice! She provided a safe environment for my dog and he got to socialize with her pets. Definitely recommend!”


About: I'd love to care for your pet! While here, they will have access to their own room (away from my personal pets), which they will stay in overnight and any time I am out of the house. Otherwise, they can hang out with my pets as much (or as little) as they want - always with my supervision. My own dog is shy and nervous, so I am happy to accommodate your dog's particular needs if they also are nervous with new people. I am at home all day, other than stepping out to run errands/socialize. I can provide potty breaks as often as you'd like and build your pet's schedule into my day/week. I can do drop-in visits and walks any time of day and play with your pet as long as you'd like. I have a small, fenced in yard (but your pet will always be supervised outside). I have a 31 pound female dog who is good with cats and small dogs. I also have a cat, who mostly keeps to himself. Our neighborhood is quiet and safe, with sidewalks on all streets. While here, your pet will have access at all times to their own private room (normal bedroom with windows) if they want to have their own space away from my pets, or if I am not at home to supervise them.

“Breanna was amazing - she sat my dogs last minute and was great about sending pictures with them, flexible with pick up and drop off, and helped me enjoy the weekend worry free knowing she had my pups. Will def be sitting with her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 13 years old. I was the first person family world call when a pet needed to be taken care off. Because of my educational background on animal biology, I am familiar with the nutritional needs of dogs and cats, what exercises they need to keep on being healthy, and how to make them generally happy. I treat pets like family and love them dearly. I can work most evenings because I work part-time during the day. Additionally, I am available for last minute pet care. I am available all day on Saturday and Sundays. At home, I make sure my two cats have fresh food and water everyday. Additionally, I clean their litter once a day, and change it once a week. Play time takes about 20 minutes throughout the day, depending on the cat’s mood, of course. I love to take dogs on a walk and have play dates with them. I can also clean after themselves.

“Courtney made me feel so comfortable taking care of my fur baby. This was my first time leaving her for this long of a stretch, but I knew she was in good hands. Maple was so calm and sleepy when we got home that I know she had a great time!”


“Raegan was absolutely incredible! Starting right from our initial correspondence and communication and continued throughout the entire weekend. She is friendly, has a nice well-kept living space, and is very accommodating. I highly recommend that you send your dog to her if you have the need! Craig Babbidge Portland, Maine”


About: I have grown up with pets my whole life! I currently have a 3 year old golden doodle who loves other dogs and people. I’m happy to care for all kinds of pets with various needs! I’m currently working an evening shift 4 days a week, so weekends are best if you want your dog to have full-time attention. I’m also happy to watch pets when I work, they will just have to stay home alone while I am gone! I do not have a fenced in yard, but have lots of room to walk! I take my dog to the dog park at least a few times a week, so we will have plenty of exercise and play time!

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had dogs, and I quickly became the go-to dog walker in the neighborhood. In college, I volunteered with the local humane society, where I spent time walking dogs and taking them on fun “puppy dates” every day. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—and animals tend to feel naturally safe and comfortable around me. More recently, I’ve also become a big cat person! I didn’t grow up with cats, but I adopted one two years ago and have absolutely fallen in love. Whether it’s a playful pup or a snuggly cat, I’m here to provide loving, attentive care while you’re away. I’m fully available all day, every day for walks, check-ins, or extended pet care. I’m going online school until August 26th and have a very flexible schedule! My home is very pet-friendly and a great environment for animals! I have one dog—an English Lab—who is sweet, well-behaved, and uses an electric fence. I also have a cat who gets along great with dogs. We live in a dog-loving neighborhood where people are always out walking their pets, and my dog has regular playdates with the neighborhood pups. It’s a fun, safe, and social environment for any visiting pets!

About: You might be a great pet sitter for several reasons: 1. Love for Animals: My passion for pets creates a warm and caring environment. 2. Reliability: I show up on time, keep to schedules, and ensure pets receive consistent care. 3. Experience: Past experiences with different types of pets equip me to handle various situations effectively. 4. Attention to Detail: I notice small changes in a pet’s behavior or health, which can be crucial. 5. Training Knowledge: Understanding pet behavior and commands helps me manage them well. 6. Flexibility: I adapt to different pets' needs, routines, and personalities. 7. Communication Skills: I keep pet owners updated and address any concerns they might have. 8. Trustworthiness: Being responsible with keys and personal items builds trust with pet owners. These qualities not only ensure the pets are well cared for, but also give pet owners peace of mind while they are away. I work full time but will always make sure the animals are well taken care of !! Their routine will always be fulfilled! Weekends I am free all day I will always ask how you treat your dogs and how you discipline your dogs so that i can portray the same as well ! I will make sure the routine is followed throughly and pictures and updates will be sent daily
