“This is our second time using Georgia to care for our 4 kitties while we are gone. She has been great each time! Our boys are well taken care of and we’ve had such peace of mind knowing someone is loving our babies in our absence.”
“Excellent dog watcher!! It was my second time hiring Daniel and was such a comfort to travel while letting my senior dog stay at home. Daniel did great, kept me up to date with pictures and information about my dogs eating and drinking habits. Would definitely recommend if your like me and want your dog to stay in his comfort zone, hiring Daniel to look after your pet.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life and loved them each so much. I am experienced with a gentle heart and genuine love for animas. I’m currently home all week raising my kids and cats. I’m available anytime throughout the week to take care of your animals needs and wants! ❤️ I have a fenced in yard and can easily crate your animal inside my house. I have three friendly cats that sleep on their own level of the house at night.
“Highly recommend! Addison has watched my dog Luna multiple times, and I’ve been very happy each time. She’s reliable, always arrives on time and communicates if there’s any change in arrival. She gives Luna a great walk and is very understanding if I ever need to cancel”

“This is my second time booking with Jaclyn, and I’m so happy I did so! She is incredibly friendly and responsive, and takes great care of my two cats. She gives daily updates with the cutest pictures. I don’t ever like leaving my cats, but Jaclyn makes it a great, worry free experience for me. If you’re in the area, I’d highly recommend booking with her!”
“Rachel was fantastic, and our Penny loved her! Rachel was very prompt with all of her communications, and she offered to come by and do a meet and greet before our appointment with her. We also appreciated her willingness to stop by for a second puppy visit after we found out we would be delayed getting home. Great young lady and a great puppy sitter!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, in all shapes and sizes. Ever since I was old enough, I have been pet/dog sitting for my neighbors and family friends. Currently having a senior dog, I understand that some pets need special medication, food, etc. I am more than happy to provide whatever type of care your furry family members need to feel comfortable. I am currently taking a class at Heartland Community College and have physical therapy twice a week. The class is only in person twice a week, so I am pretty flexible with dates and times for pet sitting. I want to make sure your pets are as comfortable and happy as possible while you are away. My focus is to give them lots of love and attention, as well as provide exercise through walks and playing in the backyard.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and my current golden retriever, Lulu, is 5.5 years old. We love our daily walks, sitting on the patio together or playing outside. She’s my best friend :) I work remotely from home and have tons of flexibility in my schedule for play, walks, and potty breaks. My kids are at college so it’s a distraction free and quiet household. I have a fenced in yard with a happy go lucky golden retriever who loves to play and is the sweetest and most gentle fur baby
“Michele was great! She dropped in over 4 days to feed, administer medication to and clean up after my 4 cats. My cats were well taken care of and happy. Michele is also very responsive to messages and I was never worried. Would definitely recommend her services.”
About: I have trained dogs and cats of all ages, senior and puppies. I love to spend time with animals and help them blossom. I specialized in skunk care, but I'm an all rounder. I am currently unemployed looking for new opportunities while I wait to start school up again. I am open to working with all manner of clienteles, and I am flexible in timing and help. I am all about giving pets the respect and space they need. I am not an up in their face person, and simply wait until the animals decide they are ready for attention. I like to build trust with the animals I serve, and love to have repeat customers. Please give me a shot, and your animals are sure to thank you.
About: I’m currently the mom of a male Yorkie. I have had dogs for 17 years, from puppies to seniors. I am familiar with all of the stages they go through as they grow. I work full time Monday through Thursday but can be available for walks or visits during my lunch break and after work. It would all depend on the requirements. I will do whatever is requested or required within reason! Also willing to get the mail, water plants, set garbage out - whatever is needed.

Amy P.
“It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Amy for any position in pet care. She is a warm, nurturing soul by nature, and her love for animals is evident in every interaction I’ve witnessed. Whether she’s caring for her own pets or looking after someone else’s, Amy approaches each animal with patience, gentleness, and a deep sense of responsibility. What stands out most about Amy is not only her attentiveness, but also her willingness to learn and adapt. She doesn’t just go through the motions—she takes the time to understand each animal’s unique personality, needs, and quirks. I’ve seen her research new techniques, ask questions, and go the extra mile to make sure every pet in her care feels safe and loved. I would entrust Amy with any of my animals without hesitation. She has both the heart and the work ethic to excel in this field, and I know she will bring warmth, reliability, and dedication to any pet care role she takes on. Sincerely, Maggie Holliday”

Avery S.
“Avery is a major dog-lover, and may come close to being a “dog whisperer.” She is very attentive to the needs of a dog and will give it lots of love and attention. Avery is detail-oriented and will follow the specific regimen for your dog. She is extremely responsible and timely. Avery owns a very reactive dog and is comfortable with how to manage one in a setting encountering other dogs or people. She also owns a senior dog with food sensitivities, visual impairment and physical challenges. She can easily adapt to the needs of your dog.”
