“Miranda was absolutely fantastic! After our initial sitting plans fell through, I was worried that we may have to cancel our trip, but Miranda came through. We have two older dogs with some health concerns, and Miranda was able to manage their meds without difficulty. Our one dog is very picky but instantly loved her. Very trustworthy. We came back to our dogs and house in great condition.”


“Torrie was amazing with my dog, Boston, and made sure I got updates and pictures of their time together. Highly recommend and looking forward to our future bookings. ☺️”


“We are so glad Jordan was available to care for our elderly pups and house sit. From the initial interview to the day we arrived home her professionalism and attention to our pups and our home never wavered. Jordan updated daily, morning and evening with photo’s, and was very responsible and attentive to our pups special needs. When we arrived home our house was in perfect order and our pups safe and sound. Thank you Jordan”


“Shemoy was absolutely awesome with my boy. She visited him before the day and developed a good connection and interacted with him like she had known him forever. She was incredibly loving with him and I was more comfortable that I thought I would be for our first time away!”


“Benjamin exceeded our expectations. With three senior dogs, we were worried about leaving them with just anyone, but once we met Benjamin we knew they’d be in good hands. He stayed in constant communication throughout his visit, which also put us at ease. We look forward to using him again.”


“Leah was wonderful! Our pups loved her! This is the first time we’ve had a pet sitter, so we were a little nervous but she eased our worries. She was very prompt with messaging and gave us lots of updates! We will absolutely book her again!”


“Sure! Here's a concise and casual review: Virginia is an amazing dog sitter! She stayed at our house for a week and took such great care of our two dogs. It was clear they were happy and well-loved while we were away. She kept everything in order and left the house spotless. We’d definitely trust her again—highly recommend!”


“Alex saved the day and the dogs were happy when we got home. She was great about communication and sent picks while we were gone. So nice to nt have to worry. Thanks see you soon.”


“Callie was wonderful! I left my pup for the first time and knowing he was with Callie put my mind at ease! She sent frequent photos and was very responsive. Would 100% trust her with my dog again and recommend to anyone needing a sitter or walker!”


“Mariaeva was an awesome sitter for our puppy and 2 cats! Our dog is extremely high energy and Mariaeva seemed to handle her with ease. She left our house even better than we left it and went above and beyond by watering our plants! We would highly recommend Mariaeva and would love if she would be willing to watch our babies again!”


“Katie is incredible! She's wonderful with our two pups (one with special needs), kept me informed throughout the day while being respectful of my meeting schedule, administered medicine, and was a joy to have in the house. She gave us such peace of mind, and we're already looking for more dates to use her. Such a gem!”


About: Hello! I would love to help. I had dogs my whole life and now have a Shepsky named Mocha who I love very much. I also volunteered at a cat rescue and have two cats of my own. I’m experienced around all ages as well! I have a Ball python and a leopard gecko too! So I don’t mind helping out with reptiles. I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I am available for daily walks or pet sitting. Morning, nights, and weekends! I can help with their daily routine, play, and walk to get their energy out. provide as much pet care as I can, and monitor them while I’m there.

About: I have a variety of pet care experience, from a board in kennel worker, to a kennel technician at a humane society, and my own lived experience with 5 different dogs across my lifetime. I've never met a dog I couldn't get along with! I'm patient and give all the care I can to any animal in my care! I'm a graduate college student so if you need pet care during the week, it will have to be after 5 or before 9. The weekends are completely free and I would be happy to watch your dog or cat all day!! When I'm taking care of pets, I follow whatever routine is given to me as closely as possible. This includes regular feeding, letting dogs out to the go to the bathroom or play, and sitting with the dogs as much as I can, whether that be in the same room with them, or actively petting and playing with them. I try to be as present and caring as possible and I will follow any rules you have for your animals!

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, turtles, backyard chickens, turkeys, and goats, and I'm ready to take care of any and all other animals and reptiles you might have; plus, if you want plants watered, I do that, too! I have three giant dogs at home, a cat pulled in from the wild, my own chicken flock, and a turtle (not to mention the feral cats we feed), so I'm used to big personalities and a lot of work each day. I do have a part-time job, but that's only on Mon/Wed, and I leave for long lunches to take care of animals, check outdoor waters, give a little exercise, etc. I try not to crate unless the owner has requested it and then only if I'm at work; I don't mind animals on furniture or the bed with me, but I always ask the owners in case the pets are trying to be sneaky when they're not allowed! I make sure the food and water bowls stay clean (please let me know if there's a specific sponge you use for pet bowls!) and I make sure to play with the animals at least twice a day until they start to get tired. For outside animals, I keep a watch on their water and food and clean their coops/runs/etc., and in hot seasons I like to mist them with cool water from a hose, just in case.

About: I have cared for dogs in my neighborhood for seven years. I have done day visits as well as overnight visits. Additionally, I have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors. I am more than ready to take care of and love your pups! I am currently a college student at The University of Alabama. On the weekends, I am available at any time. During the weekdays, I am only unavailable from 8am-1pm but can do check ins between classes! I will make frequent visits to visit your dogs throughout the day (and night if necessary). During this time, I will ensure that all necessities are met such as feedings, meds, potty time, and playtime. Additionally, I am more than willing to stay overnight to ensure that the dog has the best care possible.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 11. I have taken care of neighbors and friends dogs! I took animal science in high school for two years which included dog grooming two days out of the week and also learning about all animals in general. I worked at Hayfield Animal Hospital as a Kennel Assistant when I was in high school as well. This required walking and feeding dogs on a day to day basis. Through my junior year of high school through college, I was a summer camp counselor for a Horse riding stables. This included taking care of 30+ horses every morning and night during the week. I have been riding horses for 20 years now and have an equine minor. I have lots of experience with dogs and cats! I currently have two dogs of my own that I love very much. I have grown up with cats and until recently have always had one or two in my life. I currently work full-time from home. I work from 8 to 5 but can sit before then, during lunch, or after work. I also have time on the weekends to sit as well. I have two dogs of my own at home, so I cannot do in-home sitting currently. I will take great care of your pups/cats at your own home and follow any instructions given!

“Linda was awesome. Sadie was relaxed and happy while in her care. It was nice to go on vacation and know that Sadie was being well cared for. I would recommend Linda to anyone who wants their pet to stay home while they are gone. I will definitely request Linda again if we go away.”


About: My dad was an animal whisperer, and his passion was gifted to me. Growing up with and being educated on many animals contributed to my ability to connect with and care for them. Family, friends and neighbors knew this and entrusted me to watch over their furry friends during vacations, work shifts and late nights out. My experience includes cleaning and refilling food/water bowls and litter boxes, dog walking and other forms of outdoor activity, and some medicine administration (mainly for cats). One of the best parts of being an adult living on my own terms means I can work the hours I want! This means my schedule is open and flexible mornings, days and nights. I will ensure your pets have a clean environment with all of the essentials like food, water and indoor or outdoor entertainment! Even our furry friends get bored.
