Cat Sitting in Athens

“Shannon visited my boy cat Smokie at my house a few times. I couldnt be more thankful! (not to mention one day was Valentines) xoxo. I was unexpectedly delayed on my return home and Shannon is an angel to have stopped by to make sure he was safe <3 Thank you, R.”

“If you're looking for someone to care for your pets as much as you do, call Mike!!!! I was not looking forward to vacation because I was apprehensive about leaving my dogs for 3 weeks. I absolutely had NO reason for concern. Finding Mike was an absolute gift from God! He is amazing with all 3 dogs and caters to each of their personalities and needs. Mike even goes above and beyond and has exceeded my expectations. My oldest dog has skin issues. When I left, her skin was becoming more red and irritated. He applied the antimicrobial gel spray we use to help soothe her skin. This spray does eventually leave some 'build up' and he even gave Mya some baths so her skin can breathe and heal ♡. Having 3 Pomeranians we also tend to get some Pommy dust bunnies. Mike ran a vacuum to eliminate these so we could rest once we got home and not have to worry about any clean up. Thank you Mike for everything! It is such a relief to know that my girls are in the best care when I am not here.”

“We were very grateful that Robyn could come last minute to watch our older dog and fish. As with most dogs, she always pouts when we're getting ready to leave but I could tell from the pictures Robyn sent that she was happy, rolling on her back, playing in her pool,and having a good time playing ball (fish unperturbed). I will definitely use her again!”

“Ben is reliable, trustworthy and an asset to Rover!!! We can count on him to take care of our fur babies when we can’t!!! Will definitely use him again, and refer him to our friends and family!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets. I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was little. People know they can rely on me to give their pet the amazing treatment they deserve! As an online college student at UTK, I'm your ideal pet sitter, always available and ready for anything your furry friends need. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just some extra TLC, I prioritize your pet's happiness and well-being above all else. Throughout the day, between classes and assignments, I'm there to ensure your pets feel loved and attended to. From morning cuddles to evening adventures, I'm dedicated to creating memorable experiences and building a strong bond with your pets. With a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for animals, I'm not just a pet sitter – I'm a trusted companion for your pets, ready to make every moment special. Choose me, and rest assured your pets will receive top-notch care and endless affection. When it comes to caring for both cats and dogs, safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities. While cats won't be venturing outdoors, I ensure they have a stimulating indoor environment with cozy spots, toys, and scratching posts to keep them happy and entertained. In my home, for our canine companions, leash walks are the name of the game to ensure their safety and enjoyment during outdoor excursions. Meanwhile, our feline friends have their own special corners where they can lounge and play to their heart's content. From playful pups to curious cats, I welcome pets of all sizes and personalities with open arms. Whether it's a solo adventure or a cozy cuddle session, I tailor my care to meet the individual needs of each furry friend, ensuring they feel loved and cherished. While outdoor adventures may be off the table for our feline friends, there are plenty of indoor activities to keep them engaged and content. Whether it's interactive playtime, cozy naps in sunny spots, or exploring new toys, I'm dedicated to providing a stimulating environment that brings out the best in every pet. So, whether it's a purring cat or a wagging tail, rest assured your beloved pets are in caring hands. With safety, trust, and a whole lot of love, I'm here to make every moment special for your furry family members, indoors and out.

“Joan was very attentive to nacho. Treated him like he was her own little buddy. Very glad I found her and would highly recommend her. Thank you Joan.”

About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.

About: I have two dogs, two cats, and two snake pets of my own. I have taken care of some of these animals for almost 10 years now. Through out the years I have taught some animals some tricks, played outside, and have given them the love and attention they need. I am a freshman in college and looking for a beneficial way to spend my free time; what better way to spend that than with animals? If you are in need for someone to care for your pet I would be more than happy to help! I am a very active person and can take ur pets on walks, keep them entertained or anything of that nature to keep them healthy. For senior pets, I stay at ease, have patience, and am very calm to their liking. I am extremely cautious with any and every animal I take care of to ensure their safety!

“Sara was great and was able to stop by for a meet & greet before the scheduled drop-in visit. Our pups just need to be let out once a hike we were out for the day. Sara sent us pictures and details of her drop-in visit which went smoothly. We look forward to having Sara pet sit for us again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and love creating a calm, happy environment. Whether it’s giving medication, handling high-energy dogs, or comforting shy pets, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. Our pets are our best friends, and it's my goal to ensure that we enjoy our time together! While it may be my job to provide care and love to your pets while you're away, I can also say that I value my time spent with each animal! Nothing makes my heart happier than a wagging tail or a slobbery kiss :) I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets both during school semesters and breaks. I’m committed to providing mindful, loving care whether it’s a quick visit between classes or longer stays during holidays. Your pets will receive consistent attention and companionship no matter the time of year! When pet sitting in your home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely to minimize stress and keep them comfortable. I’m careful to secure doors and gates, avoid hazards, and monitor their behavior to ensure they’re happy and healthy.

About: I grew up on a mini hobby farm and helped my family care for our animals starting at around age 7. As I grew older I continued to love animals and have had my own pet rabbits and cats. I currently have two beautiful cats and help to care for my family's aging Golden Retriever when I am at home. I am a student on summer break looking to fill in the gaps left by my part time jobs. I am most available early evenings, Saturdays and some mornings. I am very attentive to animals in my care and will be on the alert for possible hazards your pet may encounter in addition to providing for their needs and comfort . I aim to establish good communication with all animals I encounter.

About: Liscensed as a veterinary medical technician in the state of Tennessee. Attended college at Lincoln memorial university and have been practicing since 2004. I've always owned animals and have worked with all different species. Very flexible. I work from home right now and I have lots of freedom with my schedule. I generally know a week in advance if I'll be away. I live in the country and have little traffic on my road. We can take long walks away from all my pets. I have one medium dog inside and she can be separated from your pet.

“Danielle was fantastic! She was very attentive, caring, and very sweet to our pets! I would highly recommend and will be using her again!”

“Kara takes great care of our cats. We are new to the area and needed someone to take care of them for us. We found Kara and have not been sorry. Highly recommend her.”

About: Hey! I have always been passionate about dogs and have been raised around them since I was a child. I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have three of my own and I would adopt more. I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and willing to send you pictures and updates throughout the day of your precious pet(s). I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I will be able to check on the babies all day and play as needed. If I am coming to your home overnight, I will need access to wifi for work, that is mandatory. I would love to take care of and play with your furbabies; they’re family too. I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.

About: My name is Tina and I am a retired veterinary technician with 8 years experience in veterinary medicine and 20 years in animal care. I am looking to pet sit full time. I used to pet sit part time before I moved to Tennessee. I pet sat for 7-8 clients at a time. I take care of animals ranging from dogs, cats, pocket pets, reptiles, birds, farm animals ect. I do not discriminate against dog breeds or pet ages. They are all amazing to me and I have a huge passion for animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am 100% comfortable giving medications (pills, liquids, insulin injections, rx diets ect) to your pet if needed. My services would include stopping by to feed, water, give attention to your pet, clean up messes, give meds, let outside to go potty, and make sure everyone is happy and healthy. I will also walk your dog if needed to be leashed walked vs let into the fenced yard to play and potty. I have experience pet sitting for clients with MULTIPLE pets also. I can't wait to meet you and your furbabies! I am currently trying to make pet sitting my full time job, so I am pretty open when it comes to days and times to take care of your pet/pets. I can not stay overnight due to having pets at home myself to take care of. I go by all instructions left by pet owner. I know some pets have to stay seperate whether it be when eating or at all times, so they will not be together unless client is okay with it. All pets will be on a leash unless yard is fenced in for them to safely go outside to play. While in the fenced yard I will be there the entire time to supervise play time and to give the attention they need.

About: I’ve owned dogs and watched dogs for a long time. I’ve had experience with teacups to Danes. I bred Jack Russels for 3years and worked as a vet assistant for 2. I love all animals so, yes- I will watch your cats, birds, fish, and reptiles too. I currently work night shift- Sunday through Thursday. I’m off weekends and for all major holidays so feel free to save my link for those family vacations! My yard is fenced and I live right next to the greenway and dog park so, there are plenty of outdoor opportunities for excercise and play with me. I’m also very comfortable with cuddles in bed or on the couch on rainy days. 🥰

About: I’ve owned animals my whole life, especially dogs. I have two dogs of my own who are very spoiled. I would love to meet your dog(s) and take some stress off of your day. Thank u! I am a part time student getting out of class early in the day Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday . I work from 9-5 and 9-3 at a furniture store in Madisonville on Fridays and Saturdays. I have plenty of down time all throughout the week. I will accommodate any needs that you have for your pet(s) in your home. I would love to take them out for walks or take them out to play and burn off some steam like I do for my own dogs.

“Delaney, you were amazing!! Harold is shy and actually came up to you and you got great photos! Which says a lot about your warm energy:) Thank you again! I will definefitely request you in the future:) Lori”

About: I’m currently a kennel worker at the animal clinic of Athens, and going to school to be a veterinary assistant. I have two dogs, two cats, and a ferret of my own so there’s really not much that can phase me, and I love meeting new animals!! Since I’m working part time and pretty close to home my schedule is flexible. I also have hour long lunch breaks in which I go home for. I have a fenced in yard and doggy door! So if you’re worried about your pup getting out or not being able to have access to outside you can rest assured your pup will be alright.
