“Our old cat is grumpy and doesn’t like strangers. He runs under the bed whenever someone even comes knocking. But he loved Samantha and obviously was comfortable with her. We even have photo proof! Our weekend at Atlanta was stressful, but not because we were worried about our old boy. I will absolutely be asking for repeat visits if he’s schedule permits!”


“I know I can always trust Corryn to take care of my cats whether I'm gone for a few days, or over a week. She follows all instructions and gives great updates. Even my shy cat who hides from strangers is comfortable with her!”


“Ashley was wonderful with my special needs cat! He is on several medications and it was comforting to know I could trust someone with my baby. Ashley is just so sweet and took great care of Cricket. I will definitely rebook her in the future!”


“From the start, Dorothy was great with responding/communication and set up a meet & greet the same day I reached out to her. She was very pleasant, and asked a lot of questions to make sure that my kitties were properly cared for. She also took notes and paid great attention to detail, and I totally trusted her with successfully dosing insulin to my diabetic cat. Will be more than happy to use her again in the future, and would highly recommend her a pet sitter. Thanks for your help, Dorothy!”


“I was scared at first because I never let someone else see about my fur babies 🐕. She was really patient and kind to them, they really did fill comfortable with her. I will be using her again.”


“Emily always does a great job with our dog. Our dog loves to play and have a lot of attention and Emily gives it all to her when she is there. She goes the extra mile to play and have fun with her.”


“i have a fussy and super outgoing bengal cat. Alden has exceeded my expectations with his attention towards my cat and he takes amazing pictures. He is also very communicative with me about how things are going. He is also quick to respond which I appreciate. I will definitely use him in the future!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since childhood. When I was 9, my mom would bring home strays of all kinds and we would nurse them back to health the best we could and then find responsible owners. I’m talking cats, dogs, birds, lizards, etc! If we found an animal that needed help, we took it home and tried our best to love it! My mom was my inspiration and I’ve continued doing this for years. I’m responsible and loving and patient! Trust me to care for your babies and you won’t be disappointed! I’m retired from full time work. I do work part time but it’s based upon my preferences. My husband is also retired and is home all day. My Yorkie is given free range of our spacious home. We walk him 2 times per day. Although our yard isn’t fenced, we sit outside with our dog frequently and have a nice play area for dogs. They will never be left alone!

“Matt has been extremely attentive to our cat lil bit and our dog Lucy. He has provided many pictures of their outings and we know they are in good hands.”


“Clinton was awesome with my fur baby! He provided pictures and a detailed updated about how shes doing every visit, will be booking him again soon.”


About: I've been both a long term and short term pet sitter for both dog and cats. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I do require meeting your precious pooch before accepting an assignment. My availability varies from week to week as a substitute teacher. I would love to drop by to make sure your friend is well-fed, walked, and relieved. I am available seven days a week for overnight stays to ensure your baby is not alone. I do require that I meet your pet before overnight stays. I like to assess our friends personality and hear about their unique needs and routine.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals, wild and domestic. I have shared my life with my own dog fur babies, ferrets, and chickens, and other livestock. I’m currently working from home and available for boarding services around the clock. I’m available for walks and playtime visits outside of the home at pre scheduled times. I have a large yard and two dogs to keep your pup entertained. Additionally I have plenty of crates for sleeping if you prefer one. If your pet prefers to free run or go on walks, they are sure to get plenty of exercise.Cats will have plenty of perches and toys to play with.

Meaghan did a great job taking care of our animals! Highly recommend. Will definitely continue to use her services in the future.

Amanda took wonderful care of Milo this weekend, and I came home to a happy cat. She was reliable and kept me updated with photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals, and Milo took to her right away—which says a lot, since he can be shy with new people. I’m so grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly recommend!

I work 12 hour shifts and always feel bad leaving my puppies for so long. My dogs love when Sachiho comes to visit and play with them and I love the pictures and notes she leaves about their visits when I’m working! There have been a few times where I’ve forgotten to request a visit or need to reschedule and she’s always very prompt and helpful to try to work around her schedule to accommodate!

Matt has been extremely attentive to our cat lil bit and our dog Lucy. He has provided many pictures of their outings and we know they are in good hands.

Sarah is amazing with our Izzy! We have used her for overnight sitting in our home and drop in visits. She is always reliable, communicative, and takes great care of our girl.

Julianna did a fantastic job taking care of Papaya over the Christmas, New Year break. She is communicative, responsive and reliable. We appreciate Julianna going above and beyond to clean up after Papaya and we know for a fact that Papaya is going to miss playing with her! We would highly recommend Julianna to take great care of your fur babies! 💗
