“We’ve had Kevin house sit twice now and it’s been a great experience both times! He’s been punctual, respectful, and most importantly, our pets have been well cared for! He is trustworthy and very prompt in responding to messages and inquiries! We obviously would have him back again if needed in the future!”
“Hannah was a lifesaver. We have older dogs on a lot of medications and we needed to go out of town for a few days for a wedding. She stayed at our house and took care of our fussy dogs and cat and kept us informed all weekend. She was great and will definitely use her again!! Great job!!!”

About: I grew up taking care of family cats and dogs; now I have two beautiful girls of my own! Ample experience pet sitting for neighbors and friends from kittens to senior dogs. I am currently working part time and have plenty of availability to take care of your pets! I try my best to be an early riser and get a few walks in each day, so I’m excited to take care of your pet at any time of day. Through my experience with pets I am adept at picking up when animals are distressed or anxious and broadly any signs they are not well. I will contact you or provided vet information if needed. I am good at sticking to a schedule so your pet still maintains a similar routine with walks, food and play.
About: With five years of experience, I specialize in personalized care for a wide range of animals, including reptiles and livestock. I am skilled in working with animals of all ages, administering medications, and providing extra care for those with special needs. I am currently a part-time college student with a flexible schedule. Because of this, I am free throughout the week, only needing to leave your pet to attend classes. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize making them feel safe and comfortable in my presence. I maintain their routines, provide attentive care, and create a calm environment to ensure they feel secure while their owner is away.
About: From large to small, to young and old. I have also worked with dogs with trauma anxiety and medical needs. I am a dog lover and pet sitting is how I get my canine fix. I am a PhD student in Microbiology at UGA. I am early to rise and late to bed and moving the whole time in between. I am a runner and love to stay active so walks are never a problem. Pets are just like people in that they have individual needs. Some require more attention than others and I would try to treat them accordingly.
“Sophia is wonderful! She instantly connected with my senior dog and took special favor to her needs. Sophia didn't even flinch with med requirements and was an overall champion for the experience. Look no further when booking.”
About: I have experience with house sitting with multiple pets from a few days to two months. I owned my own dog for 14 years before she passed away this year. I worked at the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia for a year. This past year I have been fostering a puppy for the Guide Dog Foundation so I have experience raising a puppy from three months old. I’ve just moved to Athens after spending many years building a solid client base in Gainesville. Right now I’m looking for pet care to be a main source of income so I have a very open availability. I have around eight years of experience caring for pets (outside of my own). I have been trained but the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia and the Guide Dog Foundation in animal care and have lots of love to give our furry friends.

I specialize in caring for your felines!! I am currently retired and available for your pet/cat care. I love animals. I don't even eat them!!! I've had animals all my life ranging from horses to cats, but I want to specialize in cat care as sometimes they feel like an afterthought. I can watch your cat in your home or mine (if they have shots) and it works. Although most cats are most comfortable in their own home. I love animals!!
