About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the unique needs of felines, and I provide a comfortable, loving environment for all pets. As someone who works from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m able to provide regular feeding, playtime, and walks throughout the day, ensuring your pet receives consistent attention. With a flexible schedule, I can accommodate special needs and adjust routines as required, all while keeping your pet safe and happy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of space to play, relax, and receive attention. I follow your pet’s regular routine for feeding, exercise, and rest, while offering extra care if needed, such as medication administration or special dietary needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to keep their environment familiar and stress-free. I stick to their regular routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions for their care, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away.

Angela and her husband were absolutely amazing to my mini goldenoodle! I need somewhere or our dog to stay while painters painted inside our home. Angela is a gem! She was so easy to talk with and kept in touch with updates and photo. She went out of her way to make Millie feel comfortable and it worked. I think Millie would have moved in with her if I needed her to! I won’t hesitate to contact her again. She’s a superb choice for any person to wants/needs o leave their pet in a loving and caring home. Couldn’t think of anything she could do better❣️

I highly recommend Misty as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She took excellent care of my two dogs while I was out of town for five days. Misty was incredibly flexible, checking on them at my home for the first half of the trip and then taking them into her home for the second part. She provided regular updates with pictures, ensuring I was at ease during my trip. Her dedication and affection towards my dogs were evident, and they were happy and well-cared for upon my return.

Annette was great! Chevie, who’s normally wary of other dogs, immediately started playing with her dog and settled in well! I appreciated all the outdoor/dog park time Chevie got. She was tired and relaxed when we got home!

I'm confident handling all temperaments and know how to recognize signs of illness or stress. Whether it's a senior dog or a high-energy pup, l'll treat your pet like family. With school wrapping up, I’ve got plenty of free time—and what better way to spend it than caring for and hanging out with awesome animals? I live in a cozy two-story home with plenty of space for pets to relax and explore. There's a temporary fenced area for outdoor time and lots of room for walks in a quiet neighborhood. It's a calm, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel right at home.

Bisskit had so much fun with Fionna while I was out of town! He really loves her and is always super excited when he sees her! She sent cute pics of him smiling and playing. She also took him on car rides and adventures. If he doesn’t eat his food, she will come up with fun ideas to make sure that he does.

I'm excited to share that I’m offering dog sitting services in our community (Athens) As a proud dog owner of four adorable Chihuahuas, I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members.

Here’s what I can offer: Safe & Secure Environment— I have a fenced yard where your pups can play and enjoy fresh air. Flexible Schedule— I work part-time for Amazon, but my schedule is flexible. On the days I’m dog sitting, I won’t pick up any shifts, ensuring your pets receive my full attention. Loving Care—- With my experience caring for my own dogs for 11 years, I promise to provide a loving and nurturing environment for your pets whenever you need! If you're interested or know someone who might be, feel free to reach out! I’d love to discuss how I can help take care of your furry friends. Thanks for considering me as your go-to dog sitter! Best, Gianni I work part time but have a very flexible schedule, so I won’t pick up any shift when it’s time to take care of you pup. I have a fenced yard and 4 adorable chihuahuas to play with new friends. Peewee, Lilly, Lola and Lilly. My male chihuahua is neutered, so no worries. The other 3 are females but they are not spayed.

About: I love pets! I have a dog and a cat (Audrey and Tricky) who are super nice and friendly. Our apartment is safe to receive a cat or a dog and make sure he/she is safe. Nowadays I am working from home, so I have plenty of time to share and take really good care of your pet. I will send you a lot of photos and videos if you want me to, so you can be sure he/she is safe and happy. Looking forward to meet you! . . . . . . . . . I work from home so your pet will never be alone. I’ll make sure he drinks enough water and eats his food, and have the litter always clean for cats, and regular walks for dogs. The cat will never leave the apartment we have our own cat and we are really careful about it. My pets are super friendly with visitors and will play with yours.

Xiao helped me treat my cat's gastrointestinal problem because its poop smelled too bad. After checking my cat's food, he found the major concern was the low-quality food with too much chicken oil.
