My pets aren't just animals; they're family, and I promise to treat yours the exact same way—with tons of love, cuddles, and attention to detail. Training Experience: I've successfully trained my own dog using fun, positive reinforcement. We can work on tricks, obedience, or just reinforce the great behaviors they already have!

Flexible Availability: I'm generally open weekends and most weekday afternoons. I'm happy to chat about your specific scheduling needs! I truly look forward to spoiling your dogs and cats while you're away and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! My work schedule is flexible. I'm available to care for your pets during weekends and most weekday afternoons. Please schedule your time on my calendar. As a devoted dog and cat owner with over five years of firsthand pet care experience, I know how important it is to provide pets with the same love and attention they receive at home. I take pride in my ability to follow detailed routines, maintain cleanliness, and ensure pets receive plenty of exercise and affection each day. From successful dog training using positive reinforcement to monitoring health and comfort, I bring reliability, patience, and enthusiasm to every pet I care for. My goal is always to make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I look forward to treating your furry family members as if they were my own!

About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I’m a reliable, detail-oriented pet sitter with a calm, patient approach that helps dogs feel safe and understood from the moment we meet. I’ve always loved animals, and caring for them is something I take seriously, always making sure they’re being cared for with intention. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy incorporating walks, play, and enrichment into each day, but I also know that every dog is different. Whether your pup is high-energy, prefers a slower pace, or just wants a quiet companion, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable. I currently have a reactive anxious dog of my own and am well experienced taking care of dogs with a variety of needs. She is very sweet with people but as she has her own needs, I make sure she won’t be interacting with your pet. I have also volunteered at dog shelters, taking care of dogs of all types, seniors, anxious dogs, puppies and more. I have a strong understanding of dog behavior and am especially comfortable working with anxious, shy, or reactive dogs. • I move at your dog’s pace and never force interaction • I’m attentive to body language and early stress signals • I’m experienced with leash reactivity and know how to avoid triggers and redirect calmly • I create a low-pressure, predictable environment that helps build trust • I’m patient with dogs who need extra time to warm up or who are sensitive to new people or environments I know that leaving your dog can be stressful, as I am a dog owner myself. I’ll make sure to keep you updated with thoughtful check-ins so you feel completely at ease. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, especially if they need a little extra patience or understanding. My goal is to make the experience feel easy and reassuring for both you and your pet. If it sounds like we’d be a good fit, I’d love to meet you and your dog—feel free to reach out anytime with any questions or concerns. My routine revolves around your dog’s routine - maintaining structure, exercise and play! Whatever your dogs needs are - I’ll work a routine around them. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I keep a structured but flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize walks, feedings, and dedicated time with each pet. I’m intentional about not overbooking so that every dog I care for gets my full attention, consistency, and a calm presence throughout the day. I am currently on a break from work so I am flexible and fully attentive to your pet. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, predictable, and safe environment. In a client’s home, I respect your space and routines exactly as instructed, keeping your dog on their usual schedule to minimize stress. I’m mindful of details like secure leashing, door safety, and avoiding known triggers during walks. In my home, I maintain a clean, quiet, and structured environment where dogs can feel relaxed. I closely supervise interactions, keep spaces hazard-free, and make sure each dog has a comfortable area to rest. I approach every pet with patience and awareness, especially those who are anxious or reactive, so they feel secure at all times.

About: I have an extensive background with caring and loving dogs! I had a French Bulldog named Stitch who stole my heart and helped me fall in love with the hearts and souls of all animals! When my baby passed away at almost 12 years old, I began fostering puppies and dogs from Paws of Atlanta. ***Note:*** ❤️🐶People friendly! ❤️🐶 **VIP (Very Important Pup) status for all pups! 😁 **Availability on Fridays are evening hours with some exceptions depending on the week.* **We can discuss those conditions as it applies to your request! ***Unable to accommodate Aggressive Breeds (small puppies of those breeds are okay)! **For the continued safety and security of all fur babies during bookings, I only accept ONE client’s pets at a time for boarding and/or daycare in my home. I have a fenced yard which is accessible to fur babies often during their stay. Pets can be crated if owners are working on crate training or at owner’s request. Pets are also welcomed to sleep in my bedroom.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 7 years old. I have a very active lifestyle— enjoy taking dogs for walks and spending time outside I have very few commitments and I am able to provide your pet with my undivided attention. I’m currently working full time during the week but I have very few commitments in the evenings or on weekends. My preference would be to provide care on weekends, but I could be flexible if care was necessary during the week. I have the utmost respect for my clients’ and their pets’ environment. I recognize that I am entering their space and I make the greatest effort to make my visits or walks as pleasant as possible. I closely follow the care instructions and leave things as I found them.

About: I have house sitted for friends for weeks at times caring for their pets as well. I have also pet sat dogs, cats, and even a pig... I wish I was joking but animals of all kind need caring for at times. I am CPR certified and am intuitive of changes in animals the more time I spend with them. I am a teacher and have alot more free time now that it's summer time but would love to do this year round, walking dogs or house sitting when I can. I will not be caring for pets in my home since I live with roommates with allergies so I will only house-sit or walk dogs.

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life and have shaped who I am in many ways. Growing up surrounded by them made it feel natural to always have dogs around me. That lifelong love eventually led me to work as a dog sitter and walker in Atlanta during college. During that time, I had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of dogs. These dogs ranged from large Rottweilers to tiny toy poodles, as well as energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. I really enjoyed becoming a part of their daily routines and experiencing their faces light up with joy and excitement! I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, and this applies for the weekends as well. We usually start the day around 7:30AM with a quick potty break, and then the dogs either roam around for a bit or go back to sleep. Breakfast is at 9AM, followed by some time in the backyard to play or go potty again. During the day, I am working but make sure to let them out every two to three hours. If the weather’s nice and it’s not too hot, we’ll go for a walk around noon. I also try to play with them throughout the day by playing with their toys, checking in, and keeping them engaged. Before dinner, I like to help them burn off any extra energy by running around with them or letting them play together in the backyard. At 7PM they are fed dinner, and then they get some time to relax and digest. They usually nap afterward, and if they didn't get a chance to walk in the afternoon, I like to take them for a walk around 8 or 9PM. If they're still bouncing off the walls, we’ll play a little more in the house before they settle in for the night around 10 or 11PM. If I need to step out for an errand (typically takes about 2-3 hours), I always make sure they’ve been let out beforehand so they’re comfortable while I’m gone. I have three dogs at home two toy poodles and a senior husky. They all get along well with small to mid-sized dogs. The toy poodles have full access in our home, and our husky prefers to stay in the basement or backyard. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to spend a lot of quality time with the dogs and keep a close eye on them throughout the day. I always supervise potty breaks in our fenced backyard, and while I’m working, they’re usually either entertaining themselves or relaxing right next to me. Our backyard has stairs that lead down to a grassy area, along with various plants/ small trees, and a koi pond. I make sure to stay attentive while they’re outside, so they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. Inside, the dogs have full access, but we are typically on the main floor together. I’m always available to take them out whenever they need a potty break. We do have hardwood floors, with a few small rugs. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m always willing to give extra attention, patience, or care. Grooming is also a regular part of our routine, so I make sure their coat is brushed often, so they can stay clean and healthy.

About: I’ve spent years around dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and communication when providing reliable and loving care for pets while owners are away. As a college student with a passion for animal care, I offer house-sitting services that include feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and regular updates. Please note that I do not remain in the home full-time during weekdays and may need to leave for classes, studying, or errands for up to 4–8 hours at a time. If your pet requires constant supervision, please discuss their needs with me before booking so we can determine if we’re a good fit. I currently live in an apartment with four friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. Since I live in an apartment with four dogs, I understand the importance of structure, patience, and consistent care. I regularly take them on trail walks, feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and making sure each dog stays active, comfortable, and well cared for in both home and outdoor environments.

“Michaela took wonderful care of our pups while we were on our vacation. She even sent pictures and updates while we were away. I will definitely be using her services again soon and highly recommend her to anyone. This is my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous about a “stranger”. I’m so blessed to have found Michaela!”

“Max was amazing! Our dogs really loved him. Would recommend him to anyone. If you’re looking for a sitter who truly puts your pets first, Max is your guy. He kept everything comfortable, consistent, and stress-free — our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored their time with him. We are very grateful to have found him on the app.”

Johana A.

“Kayla was a last minute booking to have her come and walk our dog around noon because my husband and I were at work all day. She was on time, extremely responsive and gave a very detailed report after the walk. We will DEFINITELY be using her again. Thanks again!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life my whole life, and I love nothing more than a happy pup! Growing up with four dogs in my household, and now owning my own high-energy cattle dog for the past two years, I have gained extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have experience walking and caring for large breeds, including labs, pitties, and retrievers; medium-sized dogs such as cattle dogs and beagles; and smaller breeds, including shih tzus and yorkies. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, strong pullers, and pups that need extra patience, structure, or attention during walks. I also adopted my cattle dog at just nine weeks old, so I have experience with puppies and all the energy, training, and consistency that come with them, especially high-energy breeds like my Oz boy! Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just a dependable companion while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I’m taking this summer off from my office job to unwind and mentally prepare for starting law school in the fall, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to your pup (in addition to my own)! I’m terrible at sitting still and absolutely love dogs, so I figured spending my summer making tails wag would be the perfect fit. I’m available almost any day of the week between 8 AM and 8 PM, and I’d love to help make sure your dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve! I have a large, fully fenced backyard and a friendly, dog-socialized two-year-old cattle dog who loves having company! I’m happy to crate either your dog or my own if needed, and I can easily accommodate different routines, preferences, or comfort levels to help your pup feel safe, relaxed, and at home.

About: I’ve got over 3+ years of professional caretaking experience. As well as, plenty of hands on time caring for my own pets, dogs, cats, birds, etc…All in all, I enjoy giving back to my community through providing compassionate care. Although, I am full time employed. I can be flexible with scheduling. Whether that be daytime, afternoon, or evening care. You can be rest assured that your furry friends are in safe hands. I am attentive and receptive to the specific needs of your pets. Whether medical, dietary, or otherwise. I believe open communication is a priority, so please feel free to share any concerns at any time, and I will do the same.

“Alexis was very kind and treated my pup so well. Great communication and she kept me updated.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 20 years and have had fur babies of my own since I was a kid. I stay home full time, which means your pup will always have company and care. I’ll love and spoil your fur baby just like they’re my own. 🥹💛 I stay home full time, so your pup will never be short on love and attention. From morning cuddles to afternoon play sessions, long walks by the lake, and plenty of cozy downtime, I’m here to make sure they feel right at home. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch, or just hanging out side by side, they’ll always have a buddy by their side. 🐾💛 I have a fully fenced yard and 2 sweet, laid-back Frenchie named Onion and his grandma Brownie. Onion is 5 years old,Brownie 8 both house-trained, crate-trained, and friendly with both people and other animals. I also have a gate to separate pets if needed. 🏡 I live in a beautiful neighborhood with a park and a lake, perfect for walkies and playtime. 🐕🌳

About: I want to start off by saying I LOVE dogs. I have 2 pups myself. A Staffy Terrior Mix and an American Pitbull Terrier. They are my world. I would be more than happy to take your dog to the park for a walk, to the dog park to socialize with other pups, and of course playtime is essential. Whether it's through walks or playtime, your pup(s) will have plenty of exercise during his/her stay with me! I have a pretty open schedule so your pup(s) won't ever be alone for more than a couple hours at a time. You can contact me anytime with any questions you may have and I'll reach back out as soon as possible. I can't wait to meet you and your pup(s) !

About: I've never worked with animals but I've owned all kinds of animals all my life! I grew up on a farm with 3 dogs, 2 cats and bunches of farm animals, I've even had a parrot! I've fostered all kinds of animals from sick kittens to squirrels and bunnies! So I may not have ever worked with them but I'm definitely experienced at taking care of them. :) My apartment complex does have certain breed restrictions so I may not be able to accept some dogs for overnights stays unfortunately. :( I am not working at the moment so I will be home all day with your fur babies expect when I'm checking on other clients or just running errands. I do have a camera running at all times for me to keep an eye on them while out. They will have to be crated anytime I leave my house! If you've booked a boarding service or doggy day care your fur baby will be hanging out with my pup, Neo! Neo is an absolute sweetheart who loves other dogs but he can get annoyed sometimes, especially if the other dog barks a lot. He has never shown aggression but if either dog begins showing it I will quickly separate them. I will never take your fur baby outside without being harnessed and all areas that they go off leash will be fenced in.

About: I have always had a love for taking care of animals and am very active! Love going on walks and being active and a plus is with a 4 legged buddy by my side. My dog is much older, so I miss going on the long walks! I am a teacher, so summertime is open and flexible for me! Looking to get my steps in and make extra cash! I love animals dearly. I have a dog park, just steps from where I live. Though, I love going on long walks, taking dogs out and about, and loving on them with endless pets and treats.

“She handled Friday very nicely. Very polite and just overall awesome!!!! Definitely recommend her”
