Red Dog Sitting Services LLC

Second time I've used Red Dog when I had to be away for an extended period. Excellent care of my 5 cats - much less expensive than boarding at the vets. My cats are happier too - they get to stay home!

Extremely well. They called to find out about each pet before sending someone over for the initial meet and greet. She was definitely a pet lover. She was very sweet and sent pictures each time she came. They charge by the amount of time spent not by the numbers of pets.

I can not say enough good things about our experience. We received text messages every day we were gone with pictures, videos, and a summary of what they did each visit. They not only fed and played with our kitten, but they watched out for any packages or mail delivered. They offered to do anything we needed done around the house while we were gone at no extra cost (take out the trash cans, pick up mail, turn lights on and off, etc. ). They went well beyond our requests. They even swept up after themselves before we returned.

I have used Red Dog Pet Sitting several times now for periods as short as one day and as long as eight days. From my first call they have been quick to respond to any correspondence and very accommodating, even when I have called at the last minute.  They have exceeded my expectations every time with their attention to detail taking care of my cats and my home while I?m away.
Before I started using Red Dog, any business trip or vacation was complicated by the logistics of getting two cats to the vet where I boarded them.  Knowing that Red Dog will be checking on the cats at has eliminated the stress of trying to catch the cats to take for boarding (usually when I?m trying to catch a plane), the worry of knowing that they are being boarded in a cage for however long I am gone, and the concern that if my return is not timed right, they will have to board for an extra day. 
By using Red Dog I have also gained the comfort of knowing that someone is checking on my house every day.  They are great about checking mail, bringing in papers, changing lighting and even watering plants.  They send me pictures and an update on the cats and make a note of anything they think I might need to know.
I only wish I had found them sooner!

They give your pets the best care imaginable and you the best value in service.  It was wonderful to return to an orderly home and a kitten who was calm, maybe a little tired from playing, and not at all love-starved!

They are very quick to respond to emails for sitting requests.  Keep me updated with daily emails when pet sitting.  Great service, prive and people.

Been using these guys for nearly five years now. They've always been kind, gracious and accommodating. Nice to know someone is checking on our home plus checking on our dogs while we are away. Any issues are addressed promptly and professionally. Have referred business to them several times. The text (or email) updates from each visit are fabulous!

We were very satisfied with the service and outcomes.  Will use again.

We recently moved to Birmingham but quickly needed find a pet sitter.  The owners of Red Dog Services have been nothing but responsive, professional and great to work with.  Julie is our pet sitter and she's the best!  She sends pictures of our pets (dog and cat) each time she visits and makes sure there isn't something she missed that we wanted her to do.  She has even gone above and beyond by helping us when we had a leak in our ceiling and letting us know about a new growth on our dog's head.  If you need a pet sitter, you should chose Red Dog Services.  Their the best and have great prices!

Excellent service

Excellent service.  They came to care for our cats on the arranged dates and times.  They texted us with updates every day and even included photos of the cats so we knew they had seen them and they were OK.  Everything was done exactly as agreed upon in the introductory meeting.  Everything was neat when we returned and they left a note explaining what was done each day and how the cats did.  Undoubtedly the best pet sitters we've ever used. We have already scheduled them for future services.

We recently moved into this area and needed a new pet sitter. We hired Red Dog based on their overwhelmingly good reviews on Angie's List. 
During a week's vacation, Red Dog fed the cat, brought in the mail and watered a whole lot of outdoor plants. They texted pictures of the cat to us on the days of the visits and left a journal with details from each visit for us to read when we returned home. 
Red Dog is fantastic and we will definitely hire them again. They're nice folks who are superb at what they do and offer a very reasonable price. Their attention to detail and professionalism was very much appreciated. 
Overall, it was perfect.

We have used Red Dog's services a dozen times over the last couple of years.  We have made reservations weeks in advance, and called for help at the last minute.  They have always responded in a timely and professional manner.
They send a daily e-mail with a snapshot to show that all is well.  On one occasion, one of the cats got past the sitter when she opened the door to the attic in search of the vacuum cleaner.  The sitter called us to ask about her favorite hiding spots.  She told us that she wouldn't leave until she located the cat, and would call us back when things were resolved.  She searched the house and finally located the cat in the attic.  She walked, balancing on the beams for twenty feet, to retrieve the cat which was hunkered down under the eaves.
Red Dog is cheaper than boarding the cats at the vets, and they don't come home crawling with flees and totally schitzo for a week.

Overall these services were prompt, and gave us security knowing that our pets were well cared for during our absence. The price was very fair.

I have used Red Dog Pet Sitting for several years and I am always happy with their service. They are willing to come for one day if needed as well as a 10 day vacation. I love the text messages with pictures as well as the notes when I get home. I appreciate that somone is checking on my house as well as taking care of my pets.  If I ask they even water my plants!

Red Dog Sitting Services took care of my 3 cats while I was out of town for 4 days. On the initial phone call with one of the owners, they were very courteous and thorough in their collection of information regarding my pets. A few days before they would start providing services, I had a meet & greet at my house with one of the owners of Red Dog and the person they had assigned who would be taking care of the pets. There was no charge for the meet and greet and they stayed for an hour to meet the pets and get all of the information needed to take care of them. Having the opportunity to meet with and get to know them gave me a high level of confidence that I would be leaving my pets' care in good hands. I received daily updates and pictures of my cats while I was out of town. This helped make the trip pleasant and worry free. When I returned home, all cats were healthy and happy. The price was very reasonable. I would definitely use Red Dog Sitting Services again!

Same as above.

We continue to use this wonderful service on an ongoing basis for our two large, rather spoiled black labs. The owner and sitter came over together the first time to meet and greet. They now have a house key and we call on them regularly for help - usually for several days at a time.  We will be using some overnight services when we're out of the country this year. You pay per 20 minute interval, as much time as you'd like your dogs to enjoy. The best part is that at each arrival, the sitter texts a picture to show she's there and dogs are fine. They do small chores too like bring in mail, water plants, etc.
Life saver for one who travels a lot.

We have been using Red Dog for several years now.  We have three large dogs that are our "children".  We don't trust their care to just anyone! :)  Red Dog has always been extremely reliable, professional, communicative and flexible.  We most recently used them this weekend and I realized I had not posted a review yet so decided to post today.  We trust Red Dog implicitly and highly recommend them to anyone.  Thank you, Red Dog!
