“Lauren was a gem of a cat sitter! We were gone for a week and when we came back our 4 cats were as happy as can be. She spent so much time loving on them, something our previous sitters never did. We will definitely be rebooking with Lauren for our future trips!”


“Isabelle took wonderful care of my cats while I was on vacation. She was communicative and provided lots of photos which eased my mind, as I get nervous leaving them. I highly recommend her!”


“Sophia was amazing with our dogs. I didn’t have to worry at all and when I got home, they were doing great. I would highly recommend Sophia because she took the time to do a face to face chat beforehand and followed our instructions entirely. The dogs seemed very happy and she supplied us with pictures the whole time. I am very happy!”

About: With years of experience in varied pet care, I can provide general and specialized care. I've cared for both cats and dogs, including those with medical conditions-such as food sensitivies, diabetes, epilepsy, vision empairment, and mobility issues-making me qualified to care for pets with specialized food, medication, grooming, and enrichment needs. I work part-time in the evenings, with a very predictable schedule, so I'll be able to keep your fur-babies company in the morning or during your 9-5 work hours. As a pet sitter, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for your kitty or pup. I take time to read each animal’s body language carefully, so I can respond appropriately to their needs and respect their boundaries—whether that means giving a shy cat space or offering gentle reassurance to an excitable dog. I maintain consistency with the pet’s established routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any training cues you use with them. This ensures there's no disruption to their daily rhythm, reducing stress and anxiety. I also keep a close eye on each pet’s behavior, noting any changes that might indicate stress, discomfort, illness, or injury, and I will communicate any concerns to you immediately. My goal is to ensure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and safe in their own home while you're away.

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.

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.).

“Michele was absolutely fantastic! She really cares about cats and went above and beyond to make sure our shy kitty was comfortable enough to come out and play. Michele also took great initiative to keep the place clean of all cat mess. We really appreciate how sweet and wonderful she was with our fur baby.”


“This is the second time we've had Patricia come over for daily drop-ins with our dog when we can't let her out ourselves mid-day! She is great with our dog, follows all instructions provided, very communicative, and sends lots of pictures with her updates! We will continue to use her when needed and would recommend her to anyone! :)”



“Tracy was a wonderful sitter for my two cats and two rabbits. She kept me updated with each drop off visit and sent me pictures. Gave me a peace of mind to know that everything was going well with my pets. I will definitely be contacting Tracy again in the future!”


“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!”

“Using the Rover app for the first time was an inspiring experience thanks to Anna. She connected with our dog as if they had known each other for years. She was attentive and communicated beautifully with both pictures and text messages while with Rocket. Anna will definitely be our first choice for our pet care needs.”


“Claire went above and beyond with her drop in duties! She was very sweet, easy to get ahold of and stay in contact with, and we felt comfortable leaving her the keys to our apartment. Our cat loved her and was able to warm up to her immediately! She took great care of our baby!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life, pretty much. As a sophomore in high school, i landed a internship with the animal hospital i work at now. My junior year after my internship, I was employed at Ashley Hills Pet Center, which is a great boarding facility. Then later on when i graduate high school i landed a job at oconee county veterinary hospital. I have a huge passion for animals and always have. I am currently working and going to real estate school but i am available for dog walking, house sitting, dog sitting and drop in visits. i do not work full time so i can work you around my schedule! i am very flexable. i am a very well trained veterinary technician of almost a year now and i have learned so much. i have many talents and if there is an emergency i have my coworkers and boss to help me in anyway. I'm currently full time at Oconee County Veterinary Hospital, so I try to work around your schedule and mine to make sure your pets are happy and content! I have currently moved, so I am not taking pets into my home at the moment. I do offer many other services in my clients home. I try to stay within the pets schedule so they feel comfortable with me as much as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life but more so in my 20s, dogs are my people, and my love is like no other. I currently work from home and can make my own schedule. I can accommodate your needs as needed during the day or any day away. if caring for your pet I would ensure your pet is leashed while walking and protecting your pet at all times will follow your lead.

About: I have years of experience caring for animals in my hometown of Athens, Georgia. I grew up in a close-knit community where friends and community members solicited me countless times for pet-sitting services. I have provided services ranging from check-ins and walks, stay-in visits for days at a time, and boarding. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes, including elderly pets and pets with disabilities. I have a flexible schedule that I will make work around you, and I will always commit to providing the most loving care for your pets. I’m currently working only part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I do not have a car, so transportation is mostly by foot or metro, but I’m happy to go just about anywhere for a pet. I am very patient with pets, and like to give them plenty of time to establish trust with me when meeting for the first time. I like to work with incentives such as treats and verbal cues.
