About: I have grown up with pets all my life, starting at the age of 7. My family currently has three dogs (one small and two medium) that I care for regularly. I am able to walk the three on a lease comfortably and have played a large role in training them. Although I prefer dogs, I grew up with a cat that I loved and cared for. I am able to provide compassion and care to a variety of pet personalities. With years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I understand how important it is to find a sitter/ walker you can trust. Whether your pet needs playtime, a dependable routine or just company, I’m here to provide loving and reliable care. I just received my Doctorate of Physical Therapy in May and am currently studying for the licensure exam that will be at the end of July. My availability is open as I have the freedom to adjust my study schedule as needed. I care for pets in their home by meeting them where they are at; literally and personality wise. With three dogs of my own at home, I am unable to watch your pet outside of their home. In caring for your pet in their environment it helps reduce stress and attempt to maintain any form of routine they have. I am considerate of multiple personalities and consciously make an effort to accommodate the pets needs. With dogs I have watched in the past, I attempt to give them familiarity with their routine, within mine and their comfort. I walk familiar roads/paths, feed them on their schedule (if possible) and attain to any of their needs. I will use any devices/ equipment you typically use and will prioritize safety outside the home (using leases, collars, etc.).

About: I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter for almost 2 years now. I have also been around animals my whole life. I’ve raised dogs, cats, and so many others. I’ve also house and cat sat for neighbors and friends. I will be moving away August 14th and won’t be able to take any bookings for this area anymore! I apologize for the inconvenience! I work part time, but have very flexible schedules. I would have most of my time to spend with your loved pets and can work around scheduling issues! My family has a little yorkie that loves all types of new friends and is very clingy. I take him on my runs and he loves it! I will always put the needs of your pet first and create a happy environment for them!

“Emily was wonderful. She kept in touch and sent pictures. Her love and care made my time away so much more relaxed. She is definitely on the list for all my trips. Lucky did make an appearance,Luda is skittish. All in all Emily was the best!!”


“Whitney took care of my 13 yr old dog and 11 months old kitten while I was out of the country for over a week. She did a fantastic job, and my pets loved her! I would definitely recommend her for any future dog or cat sitting.”


About: Hi there! We’re Justin and Esther—animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Justin is an author who’s had pets his whole life, starting with a sweet cat named China, who had a litter of kittens he raised until their passing. Today, we care for Lunae Lux, our energetic Siberian Husky, and Fayth, Justin’s affectionate cat. For Esther, being surrounded by animals was always a dream—and marrying Justin made it a reality. It’s allowed her to bond deeply with both Lunae and Fayth, fulfilling her lifelong wish to share her days with furry companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or training, we’re passionate about giving every pet the care and love they deserve. Animals are the first and most important priority of the day, afternoon and night. They are like children in that aspect, or fur children as people say. My cat and dog get along very well. I have trained my Siberian Husky to be more understanding and caring to smaller animals such as cats.

About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and took care of them when sick or when family or friends were away. I can continue training if needed. I love to take care of fur babies. I can confidently say when you get home your fur babies will be happy! I am a caregiver for the elderly with dementia my schedule varies but it is typically 12-5pm I can adapt to any set of rules you may have for your pets to help them be more comfortable and feel safe while in my care.

“Stephanie was super sweet to all our pets and very accommodating to our needs. We have a mixed pet family of an inside/outside dog, inside only cat, and outside only cat but Stephanie handled it all in stride. The photos, videos, and funny stories let us know our four-legged family was well-loved while we were away on an extended trip. She was great at communicating and quick to respond to any questions or requests. We will definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Katrine was a wonderful sitter for our girl Lillie. Lillie was happy and content when we got home. We will definitely book with Katrine again! We loved getting all the photos of Lillie!”



“Tracy was AWESOME. At the last minute I needed someone to care for my cat Rainbow for the weekend. Being a cat, she'd probably be ok left for a day or two alone, but she got sick and I needed someone to give her medicine while I was gone. Tracy responded to my inquiry immediately. She was prompt, professional, and really knew her stuff. I appreciate how thorough she was in our initial visit. She went above and beyond in caring for Rainbow, spending extra time to play during visits, sending lots of pictures, even giving great advice for administering her medicine (which had been a trial for me). This was my first time using Rover for cat care, and it went great. Rainbow is a new pet--it was my first time away from her, and Tracy really put me at ease knowing she was taken care of. I will definitely call Tracy again for my cat or dog needs in the future.”


About: I’ve had animals my whole life, both my grandma and my mother have worked in animal clinics. I love being around animals and taking care of them. Being in college can be lonely sometimes and taking care of animals brings me company. As a military college student in Dahlonega, I know how busy life can get, but pet care is always a priority for me. During the school year, I balance my studies with my passion for animals, offering pet sitting and dog walking whenever I can between classes and study sessions. Now that I'm back in Elbert County for the summer, I have more flexibility and can offer even more personalized care for your pets. My daily routine revolves around giving them the attention they deserve—whether it's morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles. My schedule may be a bit unconventional, but the love and care I provide are always consistent. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I make sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times. I keep a close eye on their needs, routines, and health, and I’m always prepared for any situation that may arise. In your home, I follow your instructions to maintain their familiar environment, while also providing them with the love and attention they need. In my home, I create a safe, pet-friendly space where they can relax and feel at ease. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets like family, with the same care and responsibility I would give my own.
