“Laura has been great! She has started daily afternoon walks for our pup. She has been reliable, provides great updates, is quick to respond to messages. Highly recommend!”

“Our elderly dog recently had procedures and Deedee was willing to accommodate to all his abilities and restrictions plus medications. We are so grateful for her care.”

“Solange is delightful. She was so responsive and helpful with my questions, communicative, and polite. She was genuinely excited to meet my two dogs and had a kind gentle energy. I felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care. Will use her services again and would absolutely recommend her.”

About: Hello Everyone, My name is Fallon, I am 27 years old and I graduated from Auburn University with a degree in marketing. I am looking for various pet sitting jobs I can do while I am working remotely! I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was in middle school and can provide recommendations if needed. I also have experience working in a doggy daycare as a canine coach. I have 2 cats of my own so I am very experienced with animals! I was a pre-vet major before I made the switch to marketing and took a non profit trip to Costa Rica where I assisted in surgery and administered medicine and other care to animals in need. I also administer medicine to 2 of my own pets daily so I am able and experienced to give medicine if needed. My hours are very flexible and I am free most days during the week. Because of my flexible schedule I am often times available the day of if needed. If anyone is looking for a pet sitter please feel free to contact me! I hope to hear from you soon -Fallon I am currently working remotely so I will have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I am able to make visits multiple times a day also I like to make sure there are no areas the animals can get into that could be harmful. I like to keep my home and others clean and leave it as I found it.
“AC was fantastic! I booked last minute and they were quick to respond and very accommodating. My dog seemed instantly happy and comfortable with AC which made me very relieved. I will absolutely use AC again and would recommend to anyone.”

“Mary always shows up right on time. Gus loves her and she is really good about sending pictures and filling out the walk card for every walk she takes him on. We have had problems with getting her access to our apartment and she has been very patient and understanding with it. I would be lost without her help every week!”

“I highly recommend Whitson! Whitson becomes an indispensable part of our routine. Not only do he arrives right on time, but he also goes above and beyond, often extending the walks beyond the agreed-upon duration to ensure our Tito gets the exercise and attention he needs. It's clear that Whitson genuinely cares for the well-being of our pet, and that peace of mind is priceless. If you're looking for a dog walker who is not just a professional but also a true animal lover, look no further than Whitson. He is simply the best!”

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life, and have been pet sitting for over a year! I have a kitten named Kyoshi who I'm convinced is my actual child. I know how hard it can be leaving your pet when going out of town, and I think every pet deserves the same level of love, attention, and care that I would give my own pet. I always say since realistically I can't have all the animals, I get to have the best job ever: loving on other people's fur babies! ****editing this to say that I am on break from school from December 15th to January 12th, and am available full time for overnights, drop ins, and dog walking during this time ******I am currently in grad school, but I am available during the weekends for overnight care and drop ins, and during the week I can do overnight care from 7 pm to 7 am, as well as drop in visits in the morning and evening (I am not available for mid day drop ins Monday-Thursday). When I am house sitting or doing drop in visits, I always treat the clients house like I would my own. I make sure to see if I need to water plants, bring in the mail, rotate the blinds etc, as well as cleaning up any messes the pet may make. I want you to come home to a space that's just how you left it!
“Jordan did a great job updating me and sending very cute pictures of my pup! Marlin is a ball of energy and she did a great job getting some of his energy out. She was very easy to work with as well :)”

About: I’m a huge dog lover, there isn’t much that I’m more passionate about than dogs. I come from a big dog loving family. I’ve been a dog owner most of my life. Since I was about 8 I would study and research all I could about dogs and I’ve even trained pretty much every family dog we’ve. It was mostly the basics and cool tricks. Even til this day I enjoy teaching my pup new fun tricks I pretty much have open availability on weekends. I work through the week but I’m willing to help out with the pups through the week as well My pup has free roam in my house. Only place off limits is the kitchen but I like for her to be comfortable . My pup is crate trained but I allow her to stay out if I’ll only be gone for a few hours. Making sure the house is clean first
About: I helped care for my family’s two cats since I was about five years old. One of whom was diabetic and got insulin shots twice a day, which gave me experience giving injections. I have also volunteered with the Humane Society and helped to care for my neighbors' pets. My family now owns a dog (Juno) and I own a cat (Blue). I am a full-time student at UGA, so my schedule will change every semester. However, I almost always have time for pet care in the afternoons, on the weekends, and for holidays! Just discuss any needs with me and I will let you know what my specific day-to-day schedule is looking like. I engage and play with your pets to keep them entertained while also keeping them well-cared for and safe! I ensure that they enjoy their time with me and I with them.
About: I grew up in an animal-loving home and have cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, and rodents. I have worked as a kennel tech at an emergency vet, volunteered at animal shelters walking dogs and socializing cats, and have volunteered at a local wildlife center for over 5 years. Right now, I have 2 amazing dogs and foster kittens for Dekalb County Animal Services. I strive to offer enriching and engaging pet care services, whether that includes going on walks, playing in the park, or staying home and playing or giving scritches. I also pride myself in staying up-to-date with pet care methods. I can administer medication, provide simple grooming services (bath and brush), and provide small animal care. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand that they can have extra needs. My schedule is flexible and can accommodate you and your pet's needs. I am currently job hunting and fill my time with child-care and pet-care jobs, and I keep my availability calendar up to date and always strive to provide as much advance notice as possible for any changes. I will follow your pet's typical routines as closely as possible while building trust and comfort. My priority is providing engaging and safe care and caring for pets as if they're my own.

“Jay is great with our dog, Theo! He not only walks him but he takes him to the dog park everyday! When we come home, Theo is happier than he has been in a long time--i do think that is a direct result of Jay's time and attention to him!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and family and friends dogs for the past several years. I understand how important it is to ensure that the pet feels safe and secure while their favorite humans are out of town, along with keeping their schedule on track. I am currently available most afternoons and weekends. My current schedule is very flexible and can work around most needs and days of the week. I will care for your pets as you would like them to be cared for, whether that is crating at night or making sure they are walked both in the morning and the afternoon.

Loved having Timo walk my two hyper dogs. He was very patient, followed instructions to the T, and got a long very well with the dogs. I could tell they were excitated to see him for their walk. He was very attentive and easy to get a hold of by text or through the app. Would highly recommend Timo for any one looking for a trustworthy reliable walker.
Kendall was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of Pumpkin and sent me the sweetest photo updates that really put my mind at ease. She even took him on a fun walk through a nearby nature preserve, which he loved! I can tell she genuinely cares for the dogs she walks, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend Kendall to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and fun walker!
