Dog Sitting Decatur

“Sarah is a great sitter! I have booked her a few times and she has been great with Georgia each time! Today, she picked up pieces of a box and grass pee pad that Georgia destroyed before she got there. It was greatly appreciated :)”

“Viva is so attentive and dedicated to our dog when she comes to walk her! We always get the best photos and reports back from Viva after her visits. She asks about our training goals to keep things consistent for our dog! Highly recommend!”

“Ryan is great with our dog Wylder. He drops in over the weekend and takes him for walks/potty breaks. He sends photos of him playing and info on what they did. Wylder definitely seems happier and calmer since Ryan has been dropping in.”

About: I have experience caring for my own dog as well as pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding routines, crate training, and providing a calm, structured environment for dogs of all sizes. I am a teacher so I am currently on summer break. This means I have a very open schedule to provide pet services. Inbox me to learn more! I have both a front and back yard, but they are not fenced, so all dogs are always safely supervised and kept on a leash while outside. Inside, I provide a clean, calm, and comfortable environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at home. Max is my friendly, well-socialized rescue dog who loves meeting and playing with other dogs. He’s gentle, adaptable, and does well with different personalities and energy levels.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and also have regular experience with birds and some with lizards. I love walking even running with dogs and hanging out with the kitties. I’m very orderly open and loving. I’ve been assisting my family and friends in pet care all my life. I’m currently self employed as a personal trainer training folks in their homes. I have an unusual schedule and am used to being a part of my clients households so I’ll be comfortable meeting and caring for your furry pals and will have time through the day and night to pop in for walks, potty breaks etc. I’ll treat them like they’re my own pal!! Play, hang, and live the good life! It’s my pleasure to get to spend time with these awesome creatures.

“Cecil was a great sitter! Both of my cats warmed up to him quickly, including my shy one. He was very quick to respond and give updates. Would definitely book again!”

“Another fun visit with Maria! Bentley and Maria have clearly bonded. He was happy to see her and enjoyed cuddles and belly rubs. Maria even thought to put dog shows on the tv to keep him company until I got home. Thank you Maria - we will see you again soon!”

“Kelly provide great pictures and was a super communicator. She filled in at last moment when I could get home in a timely manner. I recommend her for your fur baby needs.”

“Took such wonderful care of Holly! Lots of play and snuggle time and made sure her food, water and litter were always in order 😊”

About: I was born to my family who already owned 2 dogs and then I have always had a dog ever since until I went to university. Since I don’t currently have my own, I love to spend time caring for dogs whenever I can! I am very experienced with giving medicine of all types (topical, oral, in food), adhering to specific schedules and food preparations, as well as basic hygiene like bathing or brushing. I grew up around bigger dogs and smaller dogs and as a sitter have had the most experience with medium to small dogs. I am currently working two part-time jobs in the mornings typically. Generally, my evenings after 6 pm I keep free for pet-sitting and I generally try to keep my Sundays and Mondays free aside from an appointment or two virtually. My experience with pet-sitting in NYC has been through house-sitting or by checking in on the pets at least twice a day (morning and night). The majority of my care happens at the client’s residence and I like to gather all the information for the pet’s schedule and routine from the family before I care for them. I believe in clear communication and giving regular updates to the family to ensure that the care their pet is receiving is the very best it can be and in-line with what they are used to in their daily lives.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of animals my entire life. I’ve never been without an animal in my 24 years of living. I’m really good at giving baths and following specific instructions. I have my own transportation. I have also done some drop ins for my family and friends while they’re out of town to take care of their animals. I promise I am extremely responsible and you can trust me with your furry friends. I also exercise so walking animals can help me get in my workout as well as theirs so it’s a win win for everybody. I do not discriminate against any dogs or cats. I love all of them equally and they will all get equally loved by me every time I see them :). I am currently working part-time so I have a lot of availability throughout the week to take care of your animals! I can drop in, I can walk them whatever your needs are I can meet them for you! I have experienced distributing medicine so if you have any animals that need that I can do that for you. I will feed them,play with them-cuddle. Take them out for walks. Anything that you need!

“Georgia was great with our three cats while we were away! She sent plenty of photos and updates. I’ve booked her twice already and will definitely book her again next time we’re out of town!!”

About: I've taken care of a couple friends and coworkers dogs for years and I'm excited to meet a whole new group of great furry friends! I do freelance work from home, so my schedule is highly flexible, I'm available for walks throughout the day, and I have reliable transportation if needed I have a fenced in yard and a very dog friendly, gated neighborhood. Pets are welcome anywhere in the home and will need to be able to climb stairs (or be light enough to be carried)

About: Dog mom and lover who prioritizes calm and fun experiences for pets! Recently moved to Atlanta from NYC with my gentle giant and boyfriend. I do drop-ins, playdates, and walks, and can also feed / administer medication while you're out. Overall, I'd love to tailor every visit to what you're hoping your dog gets to experience in their social time, individually with me or alongside my dog, Zeppelin. He is very calm, well-trained, and friendly, and we'd love to help your puppy practice their social skills f you'd like. If your dog is working on confidence, manners, or just needs a gentle friend to learn from, my dog is a great teacher! It's also important for me to create an environment that they genuinely enjoy, whether at your home or outside, so would love to chat about what your dog likes, doesn't like, etc. prior to our meet-and-greet so I can come with some treats or ideas of things to do together! 🐶 Creative play: Enrichment games, fetch, scent games, and simple training fun, either one-on-one with me or alongside my own dog, Zeppelin, who loves other dogs and is very calm and gentle! 🌳 Slow sniff-walks: Perfect for puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, or anyone who needs to decompress. Sniffing is brain work, and we take our time. 🏃 Faster-paced walks & runs: For high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam and come home happily tired. ☀️ Heat-smart care: I pay close attention to heat tolerance, pavement temperature, shade, and water breaks, and I plan activity and feeding times around them so your dog stays comfortable, safe, and well adjusted. Adventures Beyond the Block My car is equipped with a safety puppy seat, so if you'd like, I can take your dog on outings like hiking trails, nearby parks, or fun new places to explore. Just tell me what your dog enjoys, and I'll plan something that fits their pace and personality. Sidebar - I love making homemade treats for all my clients and am happy to whip up batches for you and your fur baby as well! Credentials and philosophy: I've volunteered at dog shelters (specifically on dogs with behavioral and medical challenges) since high school (for the last 15 years) and I've owned and trained 3 dogs (2 family, 1 my own) and self-studied dog behavior and nutrition! I'm really keen on making sure dogs feel many different sources of love, dignity and simple joys throughout their day. Having a secure and happy dog is one of the most rewarding feelings ever, and I'd love to help make sure that special days with me contribute to that! I'm currently working part-time and from home, so I have lots of time to create a schedule with you around walks, playdates or different adventures. do a free meet-and-greet before every first booking, collect detailed health and behavior info, and tailor every outing to your dog's needs. All dogs are leashed with secure, well-fitted gear, and in my car they ride in a safety puppy seat. I watch heat, pavement temperature, hydration, and feeding times closely, and I'm familiar with the signs of heat stress. Playdates are always supervised and approved by owners first, and I'll keep you updated with photos and notes throughout.

About: Hi! I would love to take care of your furry friend!! I’ve had the experience of caring for a large dog for the past 13 years, so I understand the commitment, consistency, and attention that goes into caring for a pet. I often volunteer to watch neighbors dogs while they are away, and am able to anticipate the pets’ needs very well. I’m very comfortable sticking to established routines, including regular walks, feeding schedules, and medications. I know how important it is for pets to have consistency, especially when their owners are away! I’m also a huge animal lover and am happy to give your pet as much attention, playtime, and affection as they need! Whether your pet loves long walks and playing or would rather curl up next to me for some company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I also have experience with dogs who experience anxiety and understand the importance of being patient, calm, and attentive to their individual needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routines, and comfort level so they feel as safe and relaxed as possible. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away! 🐶❤️ I have a hybrid working schedule, and flexible in-office days! I can spend all day with your pet Friday - Monday when I work remote. On Tuesdays-thursdays, I can check in with your pet in the mornings and evenings, and leave work once or twice during the day to spend time with them as well! My office is flexible enough for me to leave a couple times during the day if needed. I live in an apartment so I’m not offering boarding. But I am a respectful houseguest and will ensure the safety of your pet and your home, whether it is a drop in or a full stay!

“Talya is great! It's clear how much she adores animals, and she took wonderful care of my dog. She responded quickly to messages, took tons of pictures, and was super easy to work with. (Plus my dog seems pretty happy with her too ?) I'll definitely book with her again!”

About: I've enjoyed having a dog since before I moved out of the house. My current dog, Leo is very friendly with all the neighbors-the kids love to stop and pet him. I've helped with dogs and cats when friends and neighbors are out of town. My sister's dog, Ferguson, a terrier/chihuahua mix has stayed with us off and own for a few years. It's interesting how you rise the occasion when you have a sick pet. My dog Sampson suffered from cancer several years ago now, and part of the treatment was to provide him with subcutaneous saline. In exchange for all the love and comfort a pet provides, it's paramount that we as owners provide the same in return. I am a recent retiree and have a flexible schedule. Weekday and weekend opportunities to help people with their pets is easy for me to do. All my dogs have been crate trained. When we leave the house it is not an issue to use the crate. My current dog, Leo behaves very well in the house alone, so we use the crate less and less with him. Almost always he camps out by the back door waiting for us to come home.

About: I have been the proud fur mom of several animals over the years. Now that I am working from home, I have the flexibility to help others care for theirs. I have experience with administering oral medication and working with high energy pets. If there are special requests I am more than happy to discuss what is needed. I also have experience with taking care of cats, so if there are extra animals I am more than happy to care for them as well. I am available mornings, afternoons, evenings and nights during the week and have open flexibility on the weekends. Having someone you can trust to care for your pet is a huge relief, I promise that your fur baby (or babies!) will be in good hands and feel the love when you are not able to be there! Im currently working from home with schedule flexibility, so your pet will have the time and attention they need while you are away. Whether it’s an early morning walk or time needed after dinner, I can assist. I like to keep to the same schedule that the pet is used to. I ensure pets are fed and walked at times they are used to. I make sure to spend time with pets after feeding and then take them out before leaving. We currently do not have pets in our home, so if boarding is needed you do not need to worry about other pets. We also have a large fenced in backyard and live in a dog-friendly neighborhood that includes a lake with lots of ducks and geese, a fun time for everyone :)

“Kristen and Jason have consistently been so reliable, great communicators, and take great care of my cat. I have booked them three times and would do so again. Thanks you two!”
