Crystal was such a gem! She sent me thorough updates and lots of pictures of my babies! I’m happy they had some human interaction so they didn’t feel so alone while I was away! I will definitely be using Crystal again so my kitties will get to know her better and feel more comfortable for play time! Thank you so much for taking care of my babies and going above and beyond!

Annie was great with my two boys. Even my older of the two, who approaches new people with sus, took to her by the end of my near week long trip. I’ll definitely be looking to see if she’s available for my next trip.

Starr was fantastic with our dogs! She sent the cutest photos so we knew what they were up to and she spent a lot of time playing with them so they were worn out! We have never left our dogs before, so we were nervous about how they would do. Starr made us feel so comfortable and at ease when visiting the dogs and I know the dogs loved having Starr to keep them company. Would 100% recommend and hire again!

I trust Sophia 100% with our dog, Covey. She is so incredibly patient and easy-going. Any high stress dog or situation will be met with calm, confidence and most of all love. Our dog loves her to pieces since he was a pup. She has fostered dogs before and even breeds that most people wouldn't take. We are grateful for to Sophia for her love for all creatures great and small. Any request is taken care of and your pet will be glad you picked her!

Stephen did a great job in transporting my dog Wilkie to the vet health center. He came on time as agreed and communicated effectively throughout the job. He is also calm and composed and knows how to handle with a new dog. Definitely recommend him to take care of your pet.

About: My experience with dogs began at birth with pets I called my brothers. Now, I am raising my own German Shepard/Lab mix whom I have had since he was 6 months old. I am a graduate student with pretty full days but mornings and evenings are perfect times for me to look after pups. I have a pretty set schedule that allows for me to know exactly when I am available, just ask and we can arrange something. I am a stickler for a schedule because it makes all the different in raising a dog. I make sure my pupper gets fed and goes out around the same time everyday.

About: I am originally from England and currently a student here in Athens! My family have always been animal loves and I was fortunate enough to have a variety of animals growing up from dogs, cats, birds and gerbils! I currently have two cats and regularly dog sit and walk for my father-in-law who has a German Shepherd mix and an American bulldog mix! My partner is also animal crazy and was brought up basically on a farm with more animals then could ever be imagined from dogs to deers to goats. I have also helped out at dog sanctuaries in Greece and enjoy just being around animals. If you have any questions please feel free to message! I've recently just moved to the US so I have plenty of free time while I settle and I don't think there is any better way to settle in than with some animals! I have two dog-friendly indoor cats that mind their own business. I have a great dog park near my home I enjoy going on long walks and hikes too if your dog enjoys that! I have a crate if that is required for your pet

About: I have been pet sitting for as long as I can remember and have several years (roughly 6) of veterinary experience. I am a DVM/PhD student at UGA and have experience handling all types of dogs including those with special requirements. I can easily medicate, am happy to take them for walks/runs, and give endless cuddles! I am currently in grad school so my schedule is pretty variable. I always come home during lunch to walk my dog and let him stretch his legs from being in the kennel (30mins-1hr). Walks before and after school with longer walks in the evening. I live an apartment complex with a cat and dog (Dalmatian). There is no yard but I walk Riley, my dal, at least three times daily. I have a spare room that can easily fit a crate.

We were lucky enough to find Lauren available for our last minute getaway and we will definitely be booking again. Our senior girls are very particular about who they like and I was shocked at how quickly they accepted her. Lauren communicated after every visit and sent pictures. She followed our feeding/medication instructions perfectly and left everything super tidy and clean. Highly recommend!!!
