Cat Sitting Athens

About: Caring for pets has been a lifelong passion of mine. As a teenager I took responsibility for my own cats, dog, and fish and became comfortable working with larger animals spending time with a friend's pit bull. When I pursed further education I was put in charge of raising animals for Historic Robbin's Crossing and learned about animal care and rights. Since then I have gained experience taking care of elderly pets and doing daily check in's for people in the Athens community. I am currently working a night shift position, but am happy to try and schedule to your needs. I am available seven days a week, especially Sunday, and with some heads up am always happy to come by to check in and go for walks. I am always happy to report in on how pets are doing and am comfortable in managing medication for animals. I do my best to be as accommodating as possible and meet pets where there needs are.

About: I offer more than just pet sitting—I provide personalized, compassionate care for every stage of your pet’s life! As well as clear communication! It is key to great pet care! I prioritize staying in touch so I can get to know both you and your pet to the best of my ability. My goal is to make sure you and your pet feels completely safe, happy, and well! I’m currently working part time- so I’ll have plenty of time to hang out and play with your animals, Pet care is a natural and fulfilling part of my daily life. I am available to pet sit any time, as well as on the weekends! :) Whether I’m caring for pets in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In your home, I maintain your pet’s routine to minimize stress—following feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions exactly. I also keep communication open with regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: As someone on the autism spectrum, I do very well with animals because they understand non-verbal communication as well as verbal. I’ve looked after numerous cats of all ages 3 months and older. I currently on the job hunt, so I’ll have plenty of time to drop in and look after your fur babies. I can do any time of day as well. I have a car and can drive to your home daily to check-in on your pet. I live in a condo with close access to lawn space, but boarding a pet will probably not be possible. It depends heavily on whether or not they can get along with my cat. She’s very friendly, but mainly prefers to cuddle on the couch rather than running around.

“Came on short notice and fed/played with the girls! Gave timely updates and photos. Was very kind!”

About: I bring over 6 years of pet sitting experience, along with a year of hands-on service dog training. This background has given me strong skills in structure, positive reinforcement, and confidently working with dogs of all temperaments. I’m comfortable reinforcing training for puppies, providing mental stimulation for high-energy dogs, and offering patient, attentive care for seniors who may need a slower pace or extra support. Safety, consistency, and clear communication are always my priorities. In addition to training service dog pups, I’ve trained my own dogs using cues in different languages, strengthening my understanding of how dogs learn and respond to clear, consistent guidance. I don’t just “watch” pets — I actively engage with them. Whether it’s structured walks, playtime, or reinforcing good manners, I make sure your pet feels secure, stimulated, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I can accommodate weekday and weekend bookings and will communicate clearly about any scheduling changes in advance. Every pet deserves patience, consistency, and a safe space while their family is away. I’m attentive, reliable, and committed to providing loving care while maintaining clear communication and a secure home environment.

About: I have a husky and two kitties at home, and have always found working with animals to be the root of my happiness. I believe in treating our animals with the utmost care, so that they live a happiest and healthiest of lives. However, I can understand that when lives get busy it is hard to give our pets the exercise they deserve. This said, I would love to help out! I am a freshmen in college, and am 18 years old. I have classes during the weekdays, so some hours I may be unavailable but with communication and planning I can be available almost every time of day. Weekends are more open for me. I have worked as a dog walker and sitter for about a year now, through contacting neighbors nearby. Whether it be walking my own husky or helping out in the neighborhood, I have walked dogs of all breeds. I would love to get in contact with you and see if your pet and I would be a good match!!

“Caitlin is fantastic! My cat loved her visits, and she will definitely be my go-to sitter in the future. I loved getting regular photos and videos while I was away for a long trip. She was also great at communicating and providing quick updates whenever needed. Thank you, Caitlin!”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 10. My neighborhood frequently go to me when they need a dog/cat sitter for a week and I'm used to going over as many times as needed. I'm patient and have had puppies growing up. This job is exciting for me because I genuinely love and care for all animals. I find that they brighten my day and I'm prepared to help my community take care of their pets. I'm about to graduate and have plenty of free time throughout my weekdays and weekends that I'm not out of town for soccer. I'll have lots of flexible times so I'm confident my schedule will work for many. I have a golden doodle named Stanley that loves to play and run around my yard he is a friendly giant that my neighborhood has all come to love. He loves walks and going for car rides.

About: I grew up with a dog and have since provided pet sitting services for neighbors and friends. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I currently volunteer at the county dog shelter, where I work with dogs of all temperaments, including shy or nervous pets who need extra time to warm up to new people. Being very active myself, I’m also comfortable handling strong dogs who tend to pull during walks. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pups while you're away on trips or at work! I work a typical 9-to-5 schedule and primarily work from home, which allows me to take breaks and visit or walk your pets frequently throughout the day. I currently don't have any pets of my own, so your pet will receive my full attention while in my care. I am happy to meet before booking to see if I am the right fit for your pet!

“Keila was super communicative, sent many photos, and gave lots of playtime to our cat! Would absolutely book again.”

About: “Dog” was my first word! I’ve had dogs since I was born, including HIGH ENERGY huskies. As a Physical Therapy student, I have interest in helping SPECIAL NEEDS dogs. My last husky had an arm injury and took meds, so I have experience! Open to learning injections and first aid as needed. Human CPR/first aid certified. I have experience with BIG dogs and puppies, dogs that pull, anxious doggies, and walking multiple dogs at the same time. Would be happy to help care for any injured or special needs dogs! I’m in graduate school, but have availability in the mornings and evenings daily, along with generally free weekends. I have a set schedule so know exactly what to expect week-to-week! I am especially interested in big, high energy, or special needs dogs. I will treat your doggies like they are my own! I have such a love for every living thing and want to help keep local pups happy and safe.

“She was super nice and communicative, and even my shy kitty who always hides warmed up to her ❤️ Would definitely recommend! 😸”

“Amanda did a fantastic job keeping me updated and caring for my pet cat. My cat required multiple drop-in visits per day, and had some complicated instructions, but Amanda handled it perfectly. I was updated with photos and messages with how time was spent with my pet, and would reccomend Amanda too any pet parent going out of town for an extended amount of time.”
