1. Kayla C.
“Kayla set my mind at ease. My Chihuahua is 18 and on meds. She is very good about everything! Her children are helpful too. I can't say enough of how great she is. My dog was so calm and taken care of as one of her own pets.”
2. Tom & Nikki M.
“Tom and Nikki do a wonderful job of making sure my pup feels at home! They check-in and send regular updates so I know my pup is having a great time, they have a fenced yard for him to enjoy, and they give him all the belly rubs! When he stays with them it truly is his home away from home.”
3. Kendall & Darbie M.
“Kendall + Darbie are great! We set up a meet and greet for Phineas and as soon I got there I knew they would be a great fit for him. Throughout his stay they were consistent with spending updates and photos of Phineas. I trusted them completely and would 100% recommend them as your dogs babysitter!”
4. Cassidy D.
“Cassidy was wonderful with our baby!! She was very caring with him, took pictures of him and sent them to us. Took him on a walk, as long as he would walk, catered to his special dietary needs. She loved him like he was hers! We will definitely be calling on her again! I highly recommend her, she has the perfect setup at her home and is the perfect foster mom ♥!”
5. Kyle R.
“I have known Kyle for several years professionally and personally and he has all the qualities you want in a pet sitter. He is detail-oriented, reliable, trustworthy, and is an experienced animal caretaker. Kyle is among the few people I would consider to care for my pets and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
6. Will M.
About: I have taken care of 3 dogs for multiple nights in a row various times. I love hanging out with all of them and it’s fun to watch them play and get along. I am usually taking care of my Great Pyrenees/Australian Shepard. He’s the most friendly dog I’ve ever had. I also take care of golden doodles and mini Australian Shepard. I love all dogs!!! I am an Econ student at UGA and I am only taking 1 class this semester. I have lots of time on my hands and would love to fill my schedule with more friends to take care of! Love being outdoors. I have an awesome home in a fenced in complex. I have 2 bedrooms for pets that prefer privacy, and I welcome all animals to explore the whole house wherever they please. We will constantly go on walks and hang out. I treat every animal with care as if they were my own dog. Will follow your schedule however you design.
7. Eliot W.
“Eliot was awesome, and will be our go to guy from now on. Pepper is a sweetheart but can be a handful, and he was totally unphased by Pepper’s quirks. He met up with us ahead of time to introduce our two dogs and was communicative throughout the weekend that we were away. I’d recommend Eliot to anybody!”
8. bennett b.
“Bennett was great with our pup. Very friendly and caring. He was great with communication and sending us pictures every day. We would definitely recommend boarding with him again!”
9. Bailey M.
“Bailey was great! I think she really enjoyed our cat SJ. Her promos are mostly about dogs but she's clearly a cat person too. We'd definitely do this again.”
10. Shelby A.
“Shelby took such good care of my girl Luna. She took her on walks every day and made sure to send me pictures to show me how much fun Luna was having. She also gave me updates 1-2 times a days to keep me at ease while I was away. You could tell Shelby is very passionate about pet sitting for animals. I will be rebooking with Shelby in the future.”
11. Olivia N.
“Olivia was great with my two dogs. She followed instructions perfectly and sent plenty of pictures. She is very responsible and amazing with the pups!”
12. Becky N.
“Thank you Becky for talking care of my big goofy dog Jasper. He is looking forward to coming back to hang out. I can tell he had a restful and relaxing weekend. You're awesome!”
13. Gabby L.
“Gabby was awesome! My puppy is pooped from how much fun he had! Gabby responds quickly and gives great updates. Totally recommend her and will be using her again!”
14. xionella a.
“What a wonderful person to trust with my pets while traveling. Xionella is a very gentle and caring pet sitter. Both of my small dogs stayed with her for almost a week and were relaxed and happy on pickup day. She sent frequent updates and some of the most cute pictures I have ever seen of my pups. I recommend booking with Xionella and I know I will for my next trip.”
15. SK T.
“We have had Sydney take care of our dogs for many years. We appreciate how much she loves and understands animals and how she treats our dogs like her own. One of our dogs is anxious and needy but that never bothered Sydney, she handles him like a pro. She is very energetic just like our dogs and is great with potty training and giving meds. We get pictures of our dogs and/or updates on longer trips, and it’s always nice to come home to a house that doesn’t have hair balls floating along the floor or dirty water/food bowls waiting for us. We really can’t imagine anyone else taking care of our fur babies.”
16. Raegan R.
“Raegan has been a caregiver and animal lover her entire life. During her lifetime, we have had a zoo at our home from all the pets she has lovingly taken in. She prays for a dog and one shows up the next day. She dreams of a cat and, guess what, one shows up a few days later out of nowhere. She loves animals and they love her. She is a pre-vet student and is very responsible and reliable. I would trust her to care for my pets over anyone else I know.”
17. Mary F.
“Mary took such great care of Moose! She did a great job communicating and sending pictures of how he was doing. Very happy and will definitely use her to watch Moose again in the future!”
18. Amelia H.
“Amelia took great care of Toby for us while we were out of town, and kept us updated on their activities, which were awesome! Will definitely board with her again, and I highly recommend Amelia!”
19. Kristin L.
“Kristen started with a nice pre-stay meet-and-greet with our dog and her and her dogs. Kristen kept us updated on our dog while he was in her care. Our dog enjoyed playing with Kristen’s dogs, and sounds like he settled into a good routine pretty quickly. We felt confident that our dog was well looked after, was showed affection, and was comfortable and happy during his stay.”
20. taylor c.
“Taylor was incredible with Mason! He really treated him like one of his own. Taylor also came through when I needed a sitter last minute. He’s a great person and sitter, I would absolutely have him watch Mason again!”
