About: 🐾 About Me 🐾 Hi there! I'm Joan. As a dedicated and experienced pet caretaker, I bring a wealth of knowledge and genuine passion to ensure the well-being of your cherished furry family members. As a dog owner myself, having recently experienced the loss of my own beloved companions, I understand the deep bond and special care that each pet deserves. My commitment to providing exceptional care is underscored by a lifetime of experience and the ownership of three fabulous felines. My expertise extends to senior dog and cat care, reflecting a comprehensive understanding of the unique needs of aging pets. Unveiling my pet care expertise: Feline Fandango: Having been a Cat Momma since the age of 6, I am fluent in the nuanced language of "cat" and well-versed in their distinctive needs. Whether it's lively playtime, gentle grooming sessions, or providing a cozy lap to curl up on, I comprehend the intricacies that make cats purr with contentment. Doggo Delight: As a recent dog owner, I understand the profound impact of canine companionship. Although my own dogs have passed away, the memory of their joy and companionship remains fresh. My understanding of a dog's wagging tail, from invigorating walks to indulgent belly rubs, reflects a commitment to ensuring your canine companion experiences joy and comfort. Pet Parent Communication: Recognizing the significance of keeping you informed about your pet's well-being, I provide regular updates, adorable pictures, and delightful anecdotes from our time together.

A Lifetime of Pet Experience: As a lifelong pet owner, I comprehend the joys and responsibilities that accompany the care of your furry family. Every pet under my watch receives the same love and protection as my own, ensuring a nurturing and secure environment that grants you peace of mind while you're away. Trust a dedicated professional, offering not just care but an enriching experience that exceeds expectations. As a stay-at-home homemaker, I have the advantage of having a flexible schedule, which can be beneficial in providing pet care. Stability in routines, potty breaks, feeding times, exercise and play times provides consistency in care. It's important to prioritize the safety, well-being, and overall environment of your pets. I will rely on you to be very specific of your expectations of me concerning the care of your pets. Remember, each pet is unique, and their needs may vary. It's important to understand your specific pet's requirements and preferences in order for me to provide the best care possible. **Please, note: I cannot accept requests if your fur dog is aggressive. This is for my protection as well as yours. **

“Judith has watched my dog Coda on many occasions. She has a natural love for animals. I never have to worry about my dog when he is with her. I would recommend her to watch any animal if you want a caring professional and courteous pet sitter.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have help trained dogs new skills, take them for walks, and get them exercise. I also love the therapy aspect dogs have on mental illness, athletes, the elderly, children, and many more. I am willing to work with all kinds and sizes of dogs and willing to learn new skills and tasks. I will always communicate with you if anything happens unexpectedly when I cannot provide my services as soon as I can. I would be willing to take your dog to the park or for a car ride to get them out of the house. Overall I absolutely love dogs and will consider them as my own dog and part of my family when providing care for your dog.

“Dustin has done a phenomenal job working with my pup on walks daily. He’s caring, patient, and provides very detailed feedback. I am so thankful for the time hes taken to let Farrah get used to him & the updates on their progress. I highly recommend his service to others!”

“Goes above and beyond for my pups, even in bad weather”

About: I have taken care of cats & dogs since I was about 4 years old. If i was to be put in a room with an animal over a human, i’d pick the animal. I am a lover of all animals basic & unique together. I want to make your trip out of town (vacation) or stay-cation closer to home as stress free as i can. I have worked in dog daycare/dog boarding facilities as well as a veterinary clinic; hints to why i am very knowledgeable when it comes to animal care and why i’d like clients to book with me because i can accommodate mostly all of their special requests and their furry friends needs! I have a Siberian Husky who is 2 years old, his name is Kane and he is one of my fur babies. I also have a tabby cat mix named Zuka who is just a little baby kitten who is almost 4 months old. I have pet care in my daily life considering I already have clients who i stay overnight with their pets, and walk their pets even if they are at work and still close to home. My family has many animals considering we live on a farm, so I can basically provide care considering what my client would like for me to do. I go above and beyond for my own pets, and others pets. I treat them the same as I treat humans because they deserve the same kind of love that we get. Any pet big or small would be welcome in my home aggressive or non-aggressive (some animals have their guards up just like humans do sometimes! and that’s totally okay.) I am willing to stay the night in the clients home and take very well care of it just like how i would take care of my home.

“Alaina is a dog mom and lover of all things furry with 4 legs. She is the kind of girl to go across the street to pet someones dog. She makes all her own dog's meals weekly so her pup is a spoiled one. You can find plenty of pictures of her and her furry companion going on amazing adventures as they both love hiking together all over the place.”

“I have had multiple breeds and rescues over the past 6 years especially and have been amazed at the depth of Jinxx's knowledge and her ability to train all breeds. Definitely more than impressed!!!!”

“Jessica is my daughter and her love for animals is never ending. Her own animals are treated better then most humans. She will love and care for your fur babies as her own.”

About: I love being able to emotionally connect with animals. That’s one thing that I’ve been very proud of since I was very young. I'm a firm believer in the saying "Animals aren’t just pets they are an extension of our family" I’m currently a stay at home mother, so my schedule is pretty much open. Aside from other family members getting to work with mainly one vehicle, and my child's nap I'm able to provide adequate care for your sweet baby/babies. My cats are my children. There’s no doubt about that. They get two servings of purée a day on top of their gravity feeder dry food and fountain water fall. I scoop their box every other day simply because I’m working on my own personal executive function. We have a fenced in yard and mama, my older cat that was a part of a colony goes outside when it’s nice and warm out and I’m able to chill with her. I’m always open to hang out with your babies in your environment whatever makes anyone comfortable.

“Tina was prompt and so sweet with my animals. It's apparent she's know what she is doing.”

“I recommend samrae as a responsible dog sitter because she is loving, caring and has a love for animals like no other. She has cared for my pets for 10+ years. She loves taking them on walks, giving them plenty of exercise, feeding them and they always have fresh water. What makes her stand out is her love and affection she provided my pets when I cannot be there.”

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.

“We have requested Alexandra‘s pet sitting services on several occasions over the past year. During our first visit, and introduction to our dogs, she was very thorough and made notes of their individual needs. She has always been professional, trustworthy, generous with her time, and most importantly, compassionate and loving to our two dogs. I would highly recommend Alexandra to anyone searching for an attentive and devoted animal caregiver. I cannot thank her enough for all of the love and care that she has provided our pups during their time together. I am confident that anyone that engages her pet sitting services will quickly feel the same way.”
