“Lauren was a gem of a cat sitter! We were gone for a week and when we came back our 4 cats were as happy as can be. She spent so much time loving on them, something our previous sitters never did. We will definitely be rebooking with Lauren for our future trips!”
“Tricie took great care of my older cat when I was out of town for a few days. She gave her daily medication and lots of care and love! Tricie did a meet and greet beforehand and sent lots of pictures during her drop-ins. She was even kind enough to bring in some packages from our porch. If I ever find myself in need of a pet sitter again, I will definitely contact Tricie! Thank you!!!”
“Natalie is great- super sweet and very reliable! She dropped in daily to take care of my two kitties while I was out of town for an entire week. She was very responsive when I messaged her a couple of details I had forgotten while I was away. She consistently checked in around 11am every day, even though I told her I didn't really care if she stuck to that time or wanted to be more flexible. I hope to work with Natalie again in the future, and 10/10 would recommend!”
“Erryne was wonderful. Very professional and great with our dog. She has a veterinary background as well for those who have pets that need extra care! We will surely use her again in the future!”
“Jade did a great job at taking care of my kitty! She sent feedback on how my cat was doing, pictures and did a great job of cleaning and feeding her! Would recommend her to others in need of a pet sitter!”
About: I am an experienced dog owner and sitter. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including cats and dogs, and have owned multiple dogs since living on my own. Currently, I have one small chiweenie and regular dogsit dogs including Cocker Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, and Great Pyrenees. Shy or nervous rescue pets are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. Pets with medical issues are welcome as I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with a variety of issues who’ve needed everything from shots throughout the day or diaper changes or to receive mobility assistance. I also have experience caring for chickens if you need someone to care for your chicks. I work full-time, but I am done at 4:30PM every weekday except for Friday - on Fridays, I am done at 1 PM. I also have flexibility in my schedule, so I can stop by to take care of any needs during the day or work from home if a pet needs additional care. I am up early every morning to give pets plenty of time to eat and play before leaving. When I get home, the first thing I do is let pets out to potty and to play. Throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for walks and playtime before bed. . First and foremost, I will strive to match or mimic the care and routine you give your pets at home. With a fenced in yard, your pet will have a safe place to potty and play. There are also many parks nearby to take your pet on walks or provide them with socialization. Pets are able to climb on furniture, sleep on my bed, and have mostly free rein of the house — my home is their home while we’re here. However, I have a pet gate I can put up and experience crating pets (as well as crate training dogs) for any pet who can’t be left free to roam.
About: I have had my own cats and been a pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors the majority of my life. Cats are precious and very particular. I am good at being patient and kind and have always been able to make a connection, even with strays. I’m a teacher just looking to make a little extra money doing what I love. My own cat is like my child so I understand the importance of having someone you can trust with your precious pet. I am a teacher during the day. I am available to drop in any weekday or weekend in the afternoons or evenings after 4pm most days. I enjoy playing with cat toys, loving on cats, or just sitting with them so they aren’t alone. Cats need time to acclimate to a new person. Sometimes a simple interaction is all they need.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life (walking, giving water, food, and medicine, picking up waste) and have 10+ years of experience with large animals. I am almost always free, which gives me lots of time to spend with your pets! Im heading into my freshman year of college, and don’t have a formal job which leaves my schedule pretty flexible! I try to go over to clients' homes every 2-4 hours for bathroom breaks and walks when every you need. I also feed at which every time you choose. I am able to walk any amount of time or distance you need!
About: I have been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, primarily dogs, but my experiences also include caring for cats, a bird, a rabbit, guinea pigs, and a gecko. I believe that providing care and compassion for animals is essential, as they deserve the same love and attention that we extend to humans. I have 3 small dogs of my own, my work schedule is flexible so I’m able to go home and let them out and play during the day. I care for them as if they were my own, a lot of love and snuggles and a lot of play outside! I think it’s important to show them the most attention
About: My experience consists of watching family and friends dogs and occasionally cats. I had a small yorkie with hip dysplasia and cushings that required meds frequently and I had a black lab mix that has also passed away, who was blind in one eye and deaf. I offer companionship and exercise for your pets when you're away. I can help with training, taking them for long walks, going to the restroom, administering medications, or just being an awesome petter for your puppy (because all dogs are puppies, no matter how old). I usually work the weekends from 8-4pm, but am usually up very early and can walk your dog as early as 5am if needed. During the week I can stop by and check or walk your pet in the morning or afternoon. Wed-Sun I can watch/walk them at night as well. When I walk my dogs, I prefer them to be in a harness for their comfort and safety. I make sure to watch the dogs closely, so if I see any signs of stress, I will promptly remove them from the situation. During the summer months especially, I will make sure to walk them early in the morning or in well shaded areas to make sure their paws are well protected from the hot pavement. I carry a dog water bottle with me on my walks, so they always have access to clean water if needed. When dog sitting, I take them out constantly, offer lots of playtime and stimulation while there, and always make sure the area is clean.
“Katelyn was amazing! She was super nice and very qualified. We boarded our senior cat with special needs with her for the weekend. She gave us frequent updates on how he was doing and even sent photos. Our cat seemed to be very happy and comfortable staying with her. When we picked him up it was obvious he was very well taken care of. We will definitely use Katelyn's services should we need them in the future! Thank you so much Katelyn we appreciate everything you did for Chicken this weekend.”
“My dogs absolutely LOVED Rachael! My mastiffs can be a handful but she managed them with no problems. Rachael was also really great at communicating and following directions about my dogs' particular needs. If I travel near her again, I will definitely seek to rebook with her.”
About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time. I'm a USC graduate and a rising second year vet student at UGA. I'm passionate about animal care and providing peace of mind to pet parents. I’m comfortable medicating and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I work part time as a veterinary technician during the summer. I'm available to pet sit any time that I’m not scheduled and most weekends. While I can't offer to keep other pets in my apartment, I am eager to keep pets comfortable in their own home while their parents are away. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.
About: I've had dogs and cats in my life as long as I can remember and I'd love to add some more friends to my list. I've helped my family and neighbors with their pets pretty much anytime they needed it and I'd be honored to help you too. I have a part time job at the moment so I have a number of hours throughout each day that I can take to take care of your pets. Besides your pets bathroom needs, I would have no issue making sure your pet has the food and water they need if you would wish. I can also definitely satisfy their need for some playtime or scratches, it really depends on what your pet likes the most and what they are comfortable with

“With very last minute notice, Taryn offered to watch our 8 month old puppy (Black Lab and Golden Retriever mix) for a week. Not only did Moxie immediately attach herself to Taryn, she almost didn’t want to come home. Taryn gave us daily updates with hilarious pictures and videos.
