“Catecha is the best. She was prompt, courteous and showed so much love to our Gracie. She updated us frequently on what was happening and gave Gracie plenty of love and attention. We will definitely use her services again in the future 😀!”
“Tiana was the absolute best. This was our first time hiring a house sitter for our three babies and Tiana put at us ease during our vacation. She was the best at and our dogs enjoyed her like family. Will look forward to booking her again very soon. ❤️”
“Dominique is the very best. Kind, compassionate and loves dogs. Our puppy was well taken of and loved. Dominique sends periodic photos and frequent updates. We appreciate her and definitely recommend her.”
“We have had Hershey for several years now and haven’t quite figured out how to travel that didn’t stress Hershey (and us) out the whole time. Uncle Devin to the rescue!! Devin and Hershey hit it off great. Hershey got to enjoy an stress-free week at home with his new friend, Devin, and we got to relax knowing everything was taken care of at home - and the price was very reasonable. I haven’t been that at ease on a trip in years! Highly recommend Devin!”

I am currently working part-time outside the home so I am very available to help with you babies. I have cats, dogs, fish & birds. I am available to visit, feed, medicate, give fluids, walk, let out, play with or just spend time with your babies while you are away.
“Murphy was absolutely great. All my dogs took to him right away, even the cat came down for a pet. He was very attentive and even found a new toy that our German shepherd loves. We came back to 3 very happy and well exercised dogs. Would absolutely hire him again!”
About: Taking care of pets has always been a joy of mine. My sister is a veterinarian technician and so she gives me plenty of advice. I’ve just finished school so I’m taking a break so I’m currently available at any time. Weekdays can vary so just make sure to give me a notice beforehand. Pets at my home are guaranteed to be inside. Pets at clients home will vary depending on how the client wants it. I make sure the area is always clean for their safety.
“Danny is amazing from his communication to the way he cared about our pets. Definitely was put at ease while away. He provided pictures, videos and a detailed summary of what they did for the day. He even wore our Malinois out versus the other way around. We are truly grateful to him. Will be booking him for all of our pet sitting needs.”
About: As a 4 cat, 1 dog momma, I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. I've been dog walking and pet sitting for both dogs and cats since middle school. Your fur babies are family, and I’m here to treat them like royalty! I am completely open for work Monday through Sunday! I'm trying to fill my time with more animals and outside time! I'd love for this to be my calling. specialize in caring for pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable. I’m respectful, tidy, and treat your space like my own—while giving your pets all the love and attention they deserve!
“JMark was absolutely wonderful. He kept us updated throughout each day he watched our babies with pictures and videos. We were worried that our Malinois would not accept him and she took to him right away. She was attached to him so much so that when we came back it felt like she wanted him instead of us.🤣 JMark is definitely our man for next bookings.”
“Carlee was awesome! So good in fact my dog looked all over the house for her when we got home. Didn't want anything to do with me! He likes me again but, I think he might still be looking for Carlee. I will definitely use Carlee again if she is available.”
About: I'm all about consistency, structured, and love. You and your baby(ies) will feel secure with me. I'm very detailed and organized. I grew up in an old school 24hr home daycare for children. I feel fur babies should get that same attention, devotion and love. I also provide transportation for humans. 🐶 Pups who enjoy car rides travel with me for ride. For my pup parents, I also provide transportation to the airport for an additional fee. Pup parents are welcome to park their vehicle in my driveway. I create a place of peace for my fur babies. My home has a calm environment. Older pups who don't care to be bothered with other pups are separated. I make sure personal space is respected.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—everything from Great Danes to teacup pups—and to me, they’re all family. As a proud dog mom to a sweet senior, I’m especially patient and experienced with older dogs who need a little extra care. I’m also well-versed in dog body language, which helps me make pups feel safe, understood, and happy in my care. Whether it’s giving medication, going for walks, or just sharing cuddles and playtime, I’ll follow your instructions closely and treat your dog like one of my own. Every pup deserves love, attention, and kindness—and that’s exactly what I bring. Caring for dogs is my top priority right now, so I have plenty of time to give your pup all the love and attention they need—on your schedule! I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, late evenings, and anything in between. I treat every pup like they’re my own, which means safety is always top of mind. I’m very observant and can quickly pick up on any signs of discomfort, stress, or excitement. Whether we’re out on a walk or just hanging out at home, I make sure every dog feels secure and cared for. I also have a fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor play, and I never leave pups unattended. Peace of mind for you = happy tail wags for them!
About: I have an 18 year old cat, 3 year old Dauschhund. I foster frequently as well, had 7 successful fosters adopted last year. I use rover for my own animals and feel like I’d to share the comforting care. In office 3 days a week, other then that usually home. Just moved to GA from TX two weeks ago for work. Currently just exploring the areas with my dog and cat. I would only treat your animals, as I do my own. I love love love my animals and would make sure they get all the proper care and attention they deserve.
“Mercy was continuously communicating on the dogs, took care of the house with much initiative, and my dogs were obsessed with her from the beginning. Highly recommend her and would book her again.”
“Audra stayed at our house and provided excellent care for Emma. We received daily "good morning" pictures of Emma and "check-ins" which provided us peace of mind. Audra's communications were clear and very friendly. Audra was clean and tidy and even took out our trash on trash-day. We highly recommend Audra and will use her again. Thanks!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life and currently have two of my own, a 7yo Yorkie and a 1yo GoldenDoodle. I’m very familiar with the needs of both small and large breeds, from managing energy levels and daily walks to grooming (the basics) and cuddles. My experience includes everything from puppy training to senior dog care, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, crate training, and giving lots of attention and affection. I treat every pet like part of the family and understand how important it is for them to feel safe and loved while you're away. *I’m currently helping my 10yo twins start their own pet sitting services as well because HEY, they love animals just as much as I do. They will be reasonable and very affordable.* With my remote job, I can work wherever I am, including schedule clients according to my availability. If caring for your pet(s) in my home, I am highly capable of meeting your furbaby’s needs. I’d maintain their feeding & potty schedule, allow them to have playtime, and take them on walks around our quiet subdivision. Just as my own two dogs love being spoiled and treated like humans, I promise your dog(s) will feel safe, comfortable, and loved too. In my home: I have a nice 2-story home with a fenced backyard that is spacious and pet friendly. I’m able to supervise your pets at all times (even if I have a virtual meeting going) and ensure that they remain consistent with their feeding, water & potty schedule. I can also watch for signs when a dog has to go outside which will prevent any indoor potty accidents. My overall goal is to ensure that your pet is comfortable at all times in a new environment. I even allow owners to bring anything special that their pet loves. While in my care, I’d love to text pictures and keep you informed of what your furbaby is doing throughout the time. In the client’s home: I always believe in respecting the property of others. As previously stated, I’d ensure that your pet stays on schedule when it comes to feeding them and their bathroom breaks. With close supervision, I will do my best to make sure your pet doesn’t destroy or damage anything. If there is anything else needed of me, I wouldn’t mind being of assistance.
About: I have a few pets of my own and know how to take care of them. I watch over friend's and family's pets very often. I work part-time but my schedule is very flexible so I'm available whenever! I am free all week, weekends and holidays. Let me know a day or so in advance. Pets love me! I have toys and treats ready to bring if needed or wanted and I have a truck in case a trip is needed.
About: I overall get along with every pet I come in counter with and I just have a passion for taking care of fur babies since I was little. I’ve always wanted to either save all the animals from animal shelters or a pet store and would always say if I had enough money I would rescue them all and give them the proper care and home they need.I till this day stand on that so for me dogs or even any animal holds a special place in my heart. I currently am unemployed and I am in college(online only) so right now for me would be the best time to take care of any pets in need of a care taker. I don’t really believe in crates unless it’s needed and I also believe in building a routine with the pets whether that be mine or someone else’s and that can also help with overall training for the owner if needed. Right now I have nothing but free time to assist with pets. I can walk them if needed or take them to a park with my son any fun activities I like to do I love bringing a doggie along so they would be with me 90% of the time.

April B.Star Sitter
“When I got my 3rd fur baby 2years ago, I didn’t think it through. Totally forgetting I am gone from my home 10 hours during the day. I remembered seeing Ms. Apriluh advertised her services on Nextdoor. I was nervous at first because I didn’t know her, but didn’t have any other options. Calling her was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She is warm, kind and most importantly honest. My fur baby loves her, and we do too, she is now part of our family.”
Jordan T.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Paws Up for Jordan! 🐾 If my dog Specs could type, this review would be written in all caps with lots of tail wags and drool emojis. Since he can’t, I’ll take over—though Jordan is probably better at handling those too! Jordan has been an absolute lifesaver for us! Whether she’s staying overnight or popping in for quick visits to let my furboy out and get his zoomies in, she treats Specs like royalty (and trust me, he now expects that level of service). Reliable? Always. Communicative? Like a pet-loving pro with adorable updates and tail-wag-worthy pics. Thoughtful? Without a doubt. From belly rubs to keeping Specs on his routine, Jordan goes above and beyond every single time. Honestly, I think Specs might love her more than he loves me—and that’s a little rude but also totally fair. If you’re looking for someone who’s loving, dependable, and basically a dog whisperer with a magic touch, don’t wait—book Jordan now before your pup does it for you. 🐶💕”

LaShannah R.
“I have known Shanna since we were in elementary school and I have always known her to have a big heart for animals. Whenever our family travels out of town, I automatically call Shanna to help. Even at the spur of the moment, Shanna makes herself available. Just as she does her own, she gives our dog so much love and attention. I can assure you that Shanna will give your dogs the best of care. When unavailable to FaceTime, we receive updates on what our dog is doing, along with pictures. It’s evidently clear that Shanna truly cares about animals, whether big or small, because she treats them like family.”
Jaxon K.
“I entrusted my two dogs, as well as, my son’s two dogs, to Jaxon for 5 days. He followed my instructions for each of the four dogs to the letter. He was on-time each day and took the time to make sure our babies were safe and well-cared for. I will definitely hire him again!!”
