“Donna did a wonderful job at making my little Lucy comfortable while we traveled! I believe it has benefited her to be able to spend time with her doggie pals and her new Auntie and Uncle! Donna is excellent at boarding. I highly recommend!❤️”
“My 3 dogs got along splendidly with Shaquita's 3 dogs. They had fun in her large home and yard. Shaquita was very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely book her again.”
“Nicole was amazing. She provided pictures and video of our dog and was so kind to her. She spoiled our dog and we absolutely loved how she took care of our Leia. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Absolutely wonderful service, took my dog LITERALLY last notice (booked 10pm on sunday and took him)! Made my dog feel at home. I cannot recommend Meleah and her family enough, they know what they are doing.”
“Anna and Alex consistently provide exceptional care, treating our furbaby with immense love and attention. Chomper is always happy and well-cared for under their watch. A heartfelt thank you to this amazing duo!”
“Great sitter. I received daily pics and when by dogs tore up their beds she replaced them and got them extra treats. They were spoiled by all members of the family and I felt completely comfortable my entire trip.”
“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
“Ben did a wonderful job taking care of my high energy puppy! He provided excellent communication before and during the booking. I appreciated the daily updates along with photos of how my girl was doing while we were away. I could tell she was well loved, cared for, and played with! I also appreciate how he went above and beyond to help her be comfortable while in his care. I will definitely use him again!”
“Megan and her family were awesome! They took such great care of our baby, Ash, and I couldn't be more pleased! They were able to take him at the last minute on a major holiday and I am so greatful for that. I will definitely be using them again for Ash's boarding needs. Thanks again, Megan & family!!”
“I found Hope last minute for a 2 week trip. She immediately sent me a message asking about my pups and letting me know that she keeps their schedules as much the same as possible. This edged out the other offer I received (the other person just accepted my request but never sent a follow up message). The dogs were at ease with her immediately. She sent me pictures of the dogs every day with updates. I was concerned if my pups would want to come home with me! They had a great time and Hope was aweosme! I will definitely use Hope again!”
About: I’ve always loved Animals! I’ve had a dog since I was 7. I’ve never met an animal that didn’t get along with me. I always felt like they gravitate towards me! I also currently have two dogs, who are my world! I am a stay at home mom, who also works retail part time! With my dogs we play and cuddle whenever I can! I also walk my doggies 3 times a day, depending on the weather! So my schedule is flexible to take care of your fur babies! I will walk your dog as much as I’m instructed or as needed! I do have a large kennel if they have to go in or one isn’t brought from home! As long as you tell me your dogs schedule (if they don’t have one , that is fine!) we should be fine!
“Alex was an outstanding pet sitter. We feel so lucky to have met her and chosen her to take care of our dog. She sent updates and photos often and let us know our dog was in good hands.”
About: Hello there! I have 2 dogs, several chickens, quail, and a bunch of bees — and they’re all my babies. 🐶🐔🐝 I work from home in the heart of Athens, so I have a pretty flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, and snuggles. I’m a fast and effective communicator and LOVE sending pics and videos of your babies while you’re away so you always know they’re SAFE and HAPPY! 📸💛 My only weakness? Too many pet cuddles sometimes give me a little back ache — but I wouldn’t trade the love for anything! 🥰 Looking forward to loving on your fur babies like one of my own! I work fully remote and can break away to take care of your best friend relatively easily. If there are any delays in attending to your pet, I will always communicate effectively. Overcommunication is better than undercommunication in my experience. I have several personal references I am happy to provide who have used my services. Upon request, I have opened my home to overnight stays- I have a fenced in yard with double secure containment and two extremely friendly dogs who grew up with lots and lots of play dates
About: Hi 👋 I’m Victoria! I graduated with a degree in Biochemistry with a concentration in pre-veterinary medicine from Mississippi State University in 2019. Then was admitted to Ross University for their veterinary medicine program. I love animals but decided I’d rather own the vet clinic than be the veterinarian so I worked as a vet tech while getting my MBA. I finished my masters in December of 2022 and have plans to start my own animal hospital. I have volunteered with several animal shelters and wildlife rehab centers since 2016. I worked at Animal Tracks Veterinary Hospital from June 2018 until August 2019. I have been trained in dog CPR at Mississippi State University’s school of veterinary medicine. I can do grooming (dogs and cats), with nail trim and ear cleaning for an extra $20 fee. I am able to medicate (oral, injections, creams, etc...). I have closely worked with with diabetic cats, cats with strokes (wobbly cat syndrome), post surgery care, and canine seizures. I can go on long runs, take them to the dog park, or just spend some time cuddling your furry family member. I will send daily pictures or videos of your pet while you’re away as well! I have experience working with domestic animals (large, small, and farm) as well as bobcats, bunnies, squirrels, birds, skunks, opossums, and coyotes. I am currently working on obtaining my wildlife rehabilitator certification. I’d love the chance to come meet your baby! I am currently working full-time for a tech company and am remote. If your fur babies need out in the middle of the day I can accommodate this as ling as I can use the WIFI. I have a cat, and 2 Australian Cattle Dogs who are very friendly. They are welcome to stay with me if they are potty trained and get along well with others.
“Shane and Kayla were great sitters for our dog Luigi! They sent pictures daily and we're very responsive to questions. Luigi had fun with their dogs and children! They went above and beyond with giving Luigi a bath multiple times while there and cleaning his bedding in his kennel prior to coming home. We highly recommend them and will certainly use them again!”
About: I have watched & took care of families animals since I was a teenager! I have lots of pet experience! I would prefer your fur baby crate trained, spayed & neutered I’m currently a stay at home wife with my toddler! I have plenty of time to play with your fur baby and give them all the love and attention they need! I have a fenced in yard & your fur baby will be treated like one of my own they are apart of my family and treated like my child. In my home they are allowed on my couch but if you don’t want them on the furniture I will stick to your rules so your pets don’t get confused!

Grace B.
“We LOVE Grace! She's our first call whenever we need someone to watch our two dogs—a rambunctious mixed breed and a hyper terrier. Grace goes above and beyond every time she cares for them, always keeping us updated on how they’re doing while we’re away. Both of our dogs are thrilled whenever she comes over and are always showered with love in return. We can’t recommend Grace enough to watch over your furbabies!”
Victoria M.
“I can heartily recommend Victoria as a loving dog sitter/caregiver. She takes excellent care of about a half dozen dogs of her own. She has a former Mississippi State "campus cat" that she adopted as well. He gets spoiled just like the dogs. She has also regularly volunteered at the Decatur, AL Animal Shelter for many years, and has also had part-time work helping local area veterinarians. She just flat out has an unlimited supply of compassion for God's critters. She would make an excellent caregiver for your dog(s) and/or cat(s).”
