About: I have taken care of most breeds from Great Danes to chihuahuas over the years! I’ve had to give meds, take to the emergency vet, and have them over at my house for days in emergency situations and it’s been fine, although I prefer normal situations like walks lol! I currently work part time from home in Buford and have decided to allow myself more time to do dog walks and pet sitting, as that’s my joy!!! Our backyard is fenced in at my house, and if your yard isn’t I will be sure to use extra precautions if you have a runner! I can crate dogs and come by enough to let them out or just stay over for a few hours if needed!
About: I’m experienced with senior dogs and cats. I love animals and I’d love the opportunity to care for your babies! Allow me to help you! I am retired and I’d love to fill my day/ evenings with caring for your fur babies! I’d love the opportunity to care for them! I will do as you instruct me. Your babies will miss you, but not miss being loved and cared for. You set for their needs.

About: I'm the type of person who spends all my time hanging out with animals at any function. I have lots of experience with aggressive, shy, senior, independent, clingy, and playful pets, and I pay close attention to your pet's personality so I can meet each pet's needs. I love to stay active but am also a homebody and could spend all day giving your pet the attention they deserve. I've had a dog since I was 10, and I know how much photos of your pet can brighten your day, so I will be sure to keep you updated! I work remotely, so I have flexible hours and plenty of time to play and take care of your pet. I travel often, but I update my availability weeks in advance. Please note: I am unavailable for Sunday bookings between 9 am and 3 pm. I am unable to care for pets at my own place, but I am more than willing to make the trip to stay at your home or drop in to feed/walk/play according to your needs. My dog is a very picky eater, so I understand that each pet's feeding routine is different, and I will always accommodate what your pet is used to.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years and truly believe our pets deserve the same love and attention they’d get from us—even when life pulls us away. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, cats, lizards, and even small animals. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, meals, or snuggles, I make sure your pets stay happy, healthy, and comfortable in their own routine. Your pets aren’t “just pets” to me—they’re family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving and capable hands. I am available weekends for in house pet sitting and weekdays for walks and drop ins. Let me take care of your pets so you can be the best pet parent. Look forward to working with you! I come to you! This way your pet can stay comfortable in it's own environment and less stressful. I can also bring in your mail etc while you're out.

About: I’ve cared for many family cats and dogs throughout my life and am currently a full-time solo mommy to my best boy Kai. I’ve trained and nurtured him since he was a 12 week puppy so I have experience with both puppies and dogs. I committed so much of my time to helping him grow to be the 4 year old happy pup he is today that I consider myself a doggy veteran. He is anxious and reactive in nature, so I also know how to handle dogs who may be a bit more fearful of the world around them. Your fur babies will be in good, experienced hands. :) I’m currently working part-time as a teacher and am available most weekday mornings, Friday evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to help assist you and your life schedule! I not only have experience with dogs and cats, but I also work with / teach children, so the natural instinct to nurture, protect, and care is one of my greater strengths! I’d ensure that your treasured fur baby is taken care of to the utmost best ability. I know a pet owner’s heart better than anyone and would do all I can to ensure yours is happy and well cared for.
About: I had a Yorkshire Terrier for 12 years until 5 years ago. I took care of daily walks, meals, and potty training every day. Now I live with a cat, and I’ve also learned how to train and care for cats. As a full-time homemaker, I am able to care for dogs and cats every day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, so feel free to reach out anytime. I have one well-trained, curious, and energetic cat. Although we don’t have a yard, we can safely take walks within the spacious grounds of our apartment complex. For the sake of my beloved cat, I keep the indoors clean and hygienic at all times.
About: Recent empty nester- let me love on your babies! I love both cats and dogs equally. Currently only offering 'in your home' house/dog sitting, drop-ins and walks. I work full-full time, M-F 7am-4:30pm. I enjoy running and also hiking the various mountains around the North Georgia area, but also love to curl up on the couch and watch TV for hours at a time. Whatever amount of activity your pet may need I am able to provide it. I have been a [people] nurse for 20+ years, giving me the confidence to take care of daily medication and/or exercises that may be needed for your pet. Please check out my reviews and allow me the opportunity to provide excellent care to your loved ones while you are away! Available weekends only for walks and drop-ins. House sitting can be arranged for extended periods, but please note that I do work away from home 40+ hours a week M-F. I do not care for pets within my home any longer but would love for you to trust me to come into your pets home and provide the level of love and care that you give them when you are home. Each pet has different needs and I try to quickly figure out how much attention and care they need to not feel sad that you are not home.
About: AVAILABLE FOR THANKSGIVING I understand the importance of animals as part of our family. I have experience owning and pet sitting for all types of animals including those who are diabetic or have special medical needs. I would be honored to share the love and compassion I have for animals with your fur baby! I'm currently working a flexible job where I am virtual and only come in person a few hours a week. My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to prioritize your pet when needed. I have cared for pets who live in a house with a yard as well as in an apartment in the city, so I know how to accomodate different environments. I make sure to keep walks, potty breaks, playtime, and outside times consistentent no matter what!

About: I grew up with a dog as a kid, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I also raised and trained a puppy from 13 weeks old before gifting him to someone, which gave me hands-on experience with training, patience, and understanding a dog’s needs from an early age. Pet sitting full-time allows me to provide feeding, walks, play, and care consistently, creating structure in my day while ensuring pets stay happy and healthy. To care for pets safely at home, I provide secure spaces, remove hazards, keep supplies out of reach, maintain clean feeding and bedding areas, and ensure calm, supervised interactions.

About: I've had dogs and cats and been taking care of them since I was a a kid. Recently had to put my dog down due to cancer, and my grandmother is allergic to pet hair so I'm looking for another way to connect to pets until I can get my own again. Currently not working so unless I'm on vacation and out of state, I have a pretty open schedule. Willing to spend nights or extended stays if discussed and I can make it work. Willing to do whatever works for your pet and their routine, previously had a dog with stomach and skin issues so I have experience with different responsibilities.

About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been one of my favorite parts of life. I also care for rabbits and guinea pigs, so I understand the responsibility and commitment that comes with keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe every day. What sets me apart is that I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to providing dependable care while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am available for pet care 24/7. I have a consistent daily routine and will always communicate my availability clearly with pet parents. I do have my own pets that I care for, including two guinea pigs, a rabbit and a dog, so I will need to return home briefly each day to maintain their feeding and care routine. I am happy to discuss schedules with each pet parent to make sure their pet’s needs are fully met. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s unique routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, personality, and any special instructions you provide. I keep their environment clean and safe, pay close attention to their behavior, and make sure they have fresh water, plenty of love, and the care they need while you’re away. I will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for your dog in your home, I will treat your pet and your space with the same respect, patience, and care that I give my own.
About: I grew up in a house of 20 dogs mostly puppies. I've been Careing for animals since before I can remember. I do some basic training mostly with dogs. At my moms I care for 3 dogs ranging from 4 to 2 years old and at my grandmother's I care for a 6 month old puppy and 3 month old kitten. I'm getting a part time job while I'm in college. I'm in the biology major with a prevet focus. I'd love to have some relaxing and fluff filled time with your pet(s) They will be supervised if outside, fed according to your instructions. Given all the love and walked at least every 2 hours if they are capable

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I lost my fur baby Oakley(in my pic) to cancer in 2023. Whether it’s throwing a ball, going for a nice walk or lounging on the couch and cuddling I’ll give your fur baby all the attention they want! I have experience giving oral medication and insulin injections to dogs as well as cats. Picking up and discarding poop doesn’t bother me! I’m a stay at home wife and mama to a six year old son who is now in elementary school so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I worked as a pet sitter/dog walker for a company in 2018-2019. My schedule is very flexible! Your babies can stay in their own home where they’re most comfortable! I’ll come to them to keep their routine as normal as possible! I do have experience giving insulin shots to both dogs and cats.
About: I have lots years of pet experience. I also do dog walking-boarding with Wag! Where we become certified and are background checked. I have two dogs on my own, a Chiweenie (Duke) and Maltese mix (Chess). I live with my parents and we are a pet friendly home! I always had a passion for animals and I will guarantee you and your pup won’t regret any minute! I love going to the dog park on my free time, taking walks and of course my favorite is play time (which is all day long). I do work part time over night but my parents are disabled so someone is ALWAYS home. I hope that you choose me to fulfill your wants for your pet and I hope to see you in the near future :) Thank you, Alexis PS: I do understand accidents happen when your pup enters a new home but if your dog constantly urinates or poops on carpet/floor along with them being let outside to do their business I will add a cleaning fee of $20. I work over night so I’ll be home all day to ensure your pup gets all the attention they need with lots of play time and walks. I treat each pet as if they are my own. All allowed on furniture and free to roam all throughout the house but I do have a gate keeping all the dogs away from the front door so you have no worry about your pup sneaking out. They also have free access to the backyard.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
