Alexia is amazing! She came and met our pups before her first visit with them. She sent photos, updates, and gave them lots of pets while we were gone :). She clearly loves animals but is also obviously super knowledgeable about their care, which is invaluable! She is trustworthy and kind, and we will absolutely use her again in the future. Would highly recommend if you want a kind, knowledgeable sitter who communicates well!

Stephen was such a great sitter for my cats! He’s good at communicating, sending photos and keeping on schedule with drop ins. When I returned home it looked like everything had been very well tended to and I could tell that he remembered to do everything that I had asked. Would highly recommend Stephen he’s a great guy!

About: I have over 4 years of pet care experience and am a dedicated dog owner myself, with two dogs at home. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and energy levels, and I also truly enjoy working with cats. I have basic training experience, including reinforcing leash walking and simple commands. My goal is always to provide reliable, attentive care so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I am currently working morning part time shifts, I have more then enough time though out the day to come and hangout with your pets walk talk and play! I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure the environment is nice and calm. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I am a firm believer in communication and love sending updates. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and rest based on their individual needs and energy levels. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and like to keep everything tidy while ensuring their pet feels secure and cared for in their usual environment.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

About: From lizards to dogs & cats, I have been taking care of pets ever since I can remember. In recent years, I have cared for my family's elder dog Molly. Along side our puppy (whose not so puppy anymore) Bella. I am currently enrolled at The University of Georgia, where I live and care for 2 very fun cats, Juno and Ziggy. There are many times where I am the first to go to whenever any family member or friend needs care for their pet/pets. I am currently in the process of getting a part time job, so I am available at nearly all times of the day to care for pets. I will adhere to any instruction given to the dot. Whether it be closing doors at specific times or only letting them roam in a specific area, no matter the rules to care for a pet in or around ones home, I will follow exactly.

Jaden was amazing with my dogs. Taking care of them is definitely not easy, and he showed so much patience, dedication, and willingness to make sure they were well cared for. This was the first time I had ever left my dogs with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but Jaden gave me complete peace of mind throughout the entire experience. Thank you so much for everything. I’m truly grateful for the excellent care you provided, and I would absolutely trust you with my dogs again in the future.

About: I have worked at vet clinics and at barns so I have diverse experiences to handle animals. I also have had pets my whole life. I recently moved to athens to start vet school. Since it is the summer I am a free book and have time all day to watch your baby. I have a townhouse with a dog park to take your baby out. I also have a spacious living room where we can play and cuddle. In your home, I will respect your schedule and follow it to a tee.

About: I’ve been caring for pets and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was young. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, XL American Bullies, and Cane Corsos. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of attention and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I promise to be dependable, responsible, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently a college student home for the summer and do not have another job, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. If your pet is staying with me, I will be home for most of the day aside from occasional errands or appointments. This allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in a house with a yard and access to a dog park within my neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions provided by owners and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I will provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs.

About: I am a current doctoral student at UGA with flexible hours and experience with pet-care throughout the years. I am a pet owner myself (a 4 year old dog named Buckets) and would love to assist you with your pet care. While I do not have any formal certifications, the animals I have cared for range from 6 months to 7 years. I have been through several training classes with my own dog, including AKC Canine Good Citizen Certification, and, while I am not certified to formally train, I am happy to include these techniques in my pet care. I currently work approximately 13 hours a week and have classes approximately 10 hours a week. My hours are flexible as I set them myself, outside of class, allowing for opportunities for care at various times of the day. Wednesdays are less flexible. I have a fenced in yard and a pup of my own who is crate trained. I have experience walking dogs who have a strong pull as well.

Stephanie did a great job of taking care of my five fur babies while we were gone! We also had a new kitten who was scared and Stephanie won her over by the end. She also won over my grumpy old man cat. Appreciate the daily pictures and for doing the extra chore of taking our trash out. So happy to have a neighbor in Colbert that we can trust!!

Alicia you were amazing!!! Thank you for taking such great care of my babies. They were perfectly happy and content when I got back and it’s because they had you to check in each day. You made this long trip bearable for all of us. The boys and I look forward to seeing you on the next trip!!

About: I currently have a cat and a dog of my own, but I have always had at least one pet ever since I was a kid. I love working with dogs to train them, as well as spending lots of time cuddling and playing. I am comfortable grooming dogs. I love pets of all ages, but I have a soft spot for senior pets. I currently work as a caregiver all day Mondays and Tuesdays. I also draw and work on art a lot in my free time. I participate in various art markets and exhibitions throughout the year, but have a lot of free time aside from those days. I don't have a fenced in yard and I have a dog and a cat so I typically don't offer to host other pets at my home, but I am happy to spend some time with your pets in their own home where they should feel the most comfortable. I can take dogs on long or short walks, take them to a dog park, or just spend time with them at your house. I can bathe, brush, play, and cuddle your dogs. I am not a certified trainer, but I can work on simple commands and behavior modification. It's up to you how you prefer I help take care of your pet!

About: I’ve loved animals and pets my entire life. I’ve taken care of all sorts from large dogs to small, cats, fish, and livestock. I grew up on a farm and have been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. I’m an avid fly fisher and student at UGA and my partner is a full time dog groomer. Let us make your pet safe, comfortable, and happy as can be! I’m a full time student in an academic research field, so between research, studying, and class, I’m very free and would love to fill that time with furry friends. As of right now I’m home all day for summer! Pets in our household are always played with, comfortable, well fed and have an eye on them 24/7. Beyond anything else I will ensure your pet is safe and comfortable. The last thing you want while out of town is to worry about your little friends

About: There's not many people out there who love animals as much as me. I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, guinea pigs, reptiles of all kinds, and other exotics such as sugar gliders. As a part of one of the biggest pet rescues of the Southeast, I have fostered and cared for dogs of all sizes, with all kinds of needs from medications to heartworm treatment. I've also apprenticed with an experienced and well-known dog trainer. I can read dog behavior well, and am patient and understanding with anxious, frightened, and grouchy pups. I want to make sure my client's pets have someone trustworthy looking after them; my pets have always been my family, and I know many others feel that way too. I strive to be of the utmost reliability, the one who will not let you down. I also strive to work with a client's budget as much as possible, because I know I'd want the same done for me. I currently work full-time from 8-5, but my schedule is usually pretty flexible, making it possible for me to handle drop-in visits/walks, and keeping dogs in my home. I really enjoy letting an owner know how their pet is doing. I send lots of pictures and updates. My aim is to make the pet feel as comfortable as possible while their human is away!
