“Katie is the best! My pups are my life and she was so wonderful with them. I haven’t left them with anyone else besides family since of one of them became blind. She was phenomenal with sending me pics and keeping me updated. I will be using her from now on.”
“Darla took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was out of town, including my senior dog that recently started having some health issues & needed daily medication given. I felt no stress being gone & she had great communication with me & left my house spotless. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Wow! Dalton is the best of the best. Attention to detail was fantastic. We have very big dogs and one is a puppy in a new strange house as we just moved to the area so he needed special attention. Dalton was a joy to work with and loved our dogs as if they were his own. Dalton would receive our highest recommendation! (I wish we could keep him all to ourselves. Ha Ha) if Dalton can manage a 200lb dog and a 90lb. 6 month old puppy.. in a house with multiple large staircases… he can handle your dogs with ease.”
“Maegan took such good care of my babies. I was nervous to leave them with sitter for the first time but they loved her (even the cat that loves no one). I loved getting the updates while I was gone.”
“Michael has watched our dogs twice now. His communication is excellent, and he probably takes better care of our dogs than we do! It’s obvious he truly cares about our animals. Thank you Michael for giving us peace of mind that our dogs are well cared for while we’re away!”
“Amanda was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I will forever use her to watch my babies! She was wonderful and my puppies absolutely adored her! She sent me so many wonderful pictures and took such great care of them and not once did I have to worry about their well being! Thank you so so much and I can’t wait to praise your sitting to other families who are in need of someone caring to watch their babies!”
“Vivian was amazing with our two doggos. She even sent us a pic mid week to let us know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and we will book her the next time we have an extended trip planned.”
“Laura stayed in house for two weeks pet sitting for us. She took our dogs out for walks, ran errands with them and was in tune to each pet’s quirks. She even watered my plants, check mail, and brought in packages! Our home was turned back over in the same condition as we left it - I highly recommend trusting your babies with her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds my whole life. Family, friends, and clients have trusted me with their fur babies. You should too!!! I’m home for the summer may 7th - July 2nd and I can take care of your sweet animals at any time during the week including weekends! I have 3 other dogs who are very friendly, my neighborhood is not dangerous at all and I have a fenced in back yard! I also would have family to help!
“Deanna came to our rescue after our other sitter had a death in the family and could not watch our dogs. She is awesome she did great watching our dogs. She took them out and spent several hours with them a day. We originally booked for overnight but because she lives so close we let her do drop in visits and it worked out just as well. I highly recommend Deanna to watch your pets because she'll treat them like family and did an amazing job! We will be using her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Linda, and I’ve always loved animals and the comfort, personality, and joy they bring into our lives. I’m dependable, organized, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets — whether that’s going for walks, giving them attention during drop-in visits, or simply helping them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi, so I understand how important reliability, communication, and trust are. I’m looking to offer flexible evening and weekend pet care and would love to help give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and extra attention to help both you and your pet feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full-time at the University of Southern Mississippi and have availability during evenings, weekends, and some daytime hours on work-from-home days. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so walks and drop-in visits are a great fit for my schedule and lifestyle I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get attention, exercise, fresh water, potty breaks, and plenty of care and patience. I also understand how important communication is for pet owners, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits.
“Anna really helped us out this past weekend keeping our puppy for us in a hotel room while we had a few social events. We really appreciated her being so responsible and keeping our pup entertained. I would use her again. She was on time, friendly and very helpful. I didn’t have to worry at all while we were away!”
About: I’ve been a vet tech, a zookeeper, and have been caring for animals almost all my life. I went to school for wildlife ecology, and I am trained in home introduction techniques. I’m happy to care for any special needs or particular requests you have to make your pet’s as comfortable as possible during their stay! Looking forward to caring for your furry family members soon. I work full-time, but when I am home I make sure to give your fur babies my undivided attention. My wife is home all day, so she can definitely help out with your fur babies! I make sure every dog is comfortable with me, and I let them walk around my home to get a sense of the area. If the clients home I make sure the dog/dogs are comfortable with me as well, and once they are I proceed with taking care of them.

Darla took amazing care of my 2 dogs while I was out of town, including my senior dog that recently started having some health issues & needed daily medication given. I felt no stress being gone & she had great communication with me & left my house spotless. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
I highly recommend Maegan. She took exceptional care of our two golden babies and our home while we were away. She provided daily pup check-in updates and lots of pics! Yogi and Tucker have a new girlfriend who gave them lots of cuddles, walks and let them sleep with her. I could tell by the pics how happy they were. This was our first time using a pet sitter service for our dogs and thanks to Maegan - it will not be our last. Because of her we will have the freedom to take a trip here or there to explore AL and not worry who will love 💕 our doggos.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received from Paige. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does. She walked him several times, kept him company, and stayed with him while I was away, giving me total peace of mind. I came back to a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly well‑loved in my absence.
