Pet Sitting in Elberton

About: I have provided pet care for dogs & cats since the 1980s. I have also cared for my pets over my lifetime: dogs, cats, rabbits,& birds. I also have experience with horses, llamas, pigs, goats, sheep, monkeys & lemurs. But I do NOT do spiders or snakes. Besides caring for my 3 rescue pups, I also run my own business, so my schedule is usually somewhat flexible. But my calendar books up quickly. I currently do drop-in visits at your home. I have my own transportation. Besides keeping to your pets feeding schedule, I am happy to spend time with them, if they're not afraid of new people. And I'm happy to walk dogs that are 40 lbs or less.

“New Rover sitter. Learning the ropes but clearly a good heart and engaged well with my dog and parrot. Sent good photos with Frisbee playing with Roscoe and singing and dancing with my parrot. Would use her again”

“Savannah is the absolute best! We had a last minute need while we were out of town and she dropped everything to help us out! Our pups adore her and she kept us informed of her visits without ever having to ask or wonder how things were going. Responsible. Reliable. Kind. Caring. And very in tune with our pups! An absolute gem!”

About: I had pets as a child. As an adult we became a dog family 10 years ago. He’s stubborn and way smarter than I am. I’ve learned so much loving on our Smitty. I’m patient and love to see their personalities shine. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to discuss your personal needs and work that into my day. I walk my dogs on leash on our property. For you I’d do what your pet is accustomed to. I’m very flexible and able to work with what works for you best.

“Stephanie did a great job of taking care of my five fur babies while we were gone! We also had a new kitten who was scared and Stephanie won her over by the end. She also won over my grumpy old man cat. Appreciate the daily pictures and for doing the extra chore of taking our trash out. So happy to have a neighbor in Colbert that we can trust!!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was young. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, XL American Bullies, and Cane Corsos. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of attention and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I promise to be dependable, responsible, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently a college student home for the summer and do not have another job, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. If your pet is staying with me, I will be home for most of the day aside from occasional errands or appointments. This allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in a house with a yard and access to a dog park within my neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions provided by owners and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I will provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

“Highly recommend Jade as a sitter. She was absolutely incredible and treated my dog, Butter, as if she were her own. She communicated consistently and effectively, always made sure to send photos during her visits, and was such a sweet person. Will definitely be using Jade for all my travels to come!”

About: I’ve taken care of my community’s pets since I was 17. I’ve cared for almost all kinds of pets. Cats, dogs, birds, lizards, you name it! I always try to go the extra mile so that pet parents not only come home to a happy, healthy pet; but a clean and well-cared for home! I am a middle school band director who works 7-3 most days. However, I can go before and after school care and I can spend nights! My kittens get fed twice a day, they get a new toy once a month and go to the vet once a month! They also have their litter box scooped every night and cleaned once a week. They even sleep in the bed with me. If I’m caring for dogs, they go on at least 3 walks a day of varying length (depending on the dog). I frequently watch a 13 year old pug who can’t stay out very long, so he goes on 3, 10-minute walks a day. However, if your dog has the endurance to go on a longer walk/run with me - I’ll take them up to 3 miles!

“Andrea was very personable and our dogs seem to be very comfortable with her.. she seemed to have experience with big dogs and was very confident around them which was a definite plus!”

About: My name is Alexis and I recently moved back to Athens, Ga after finishing college at UGA! I am currently pursued a major in psychology and minor in communication! I've grown up with animals my entire life and I'm a volunteer foster! Fostering brings me such joy and I just want to be able to help as many animals as I can. I have my dog Coco, who lives with my parents. She is coming up on 14 years old. She is my absolute best friend and I took care of her every step of the way. She's been on medication her entire life for epilepsy. I know how to administer medication to cats as well. I have three of my own. Kiwi, Olive and Jack! Kiwi is 6 years old and Olive is 4 :) Jack is around a year old he's the baby. They are the absolute sweetest and are very socialized with other cats since I foster as well! I use to always collect polaroids of my animals and I love sharing that memory with my friends and fellow animal lovers! If you select to have photos sent to you during the trip, I include a little goody bag at the end full of Polaroids of your animals during their little vacation at my home! Quick Info: -Two Story house -Dog Park -Will be home throughout the whole day, I dont do much on the days I decide to board animals. -Same goes for house sitting, if you need me there 24/7 I'll be there. Plenty of space for doggos to roam around! I live in a really nice neighborhood, dogs are always out being walked. I've taken care of animals for many years. I will absolutely provide the best possible care your pup or kitty needs :) Tip is not expected, but greatly appreciated!! Rover gets about 20% of all sitters earnings! I'm currently working part time so I have all the time in the world to play with the pups or kitties! When I book jobs, I make sure I'm home almost 24/7. If I need to leave it'd only be for an emergency. This is basically my full time job for now!! I care for them by providing them with the love I'd want my animals to be given if I was away. I have anxiety when it comes to leaving them so I absolutely know how it can be. I keep owners very up to date with photos and videos of their fur babies.

“Jesse does a great job of keeping the animals on schedule and I was so relaxed all day knowing he was coming by to check on them twice while we were at a ball game in Athens.”

About: I have raised several puppies successfully and have helped a family member with caring for large litters of Great Danes. We have had senior dogs that have required medication administration, including insulin. I also volunteer at the heart Humane Society in Georgia taken care of the cats and the dogs that are waiting to be placed into a forever home. I currently work par-time so I have plenty of time for pet care. I do have other family in my home that can care for my pets if I am needed for over nights. I love caring for pets it makes me feel rewarded when pets respond positively with me. I have 2 dogs in my home both weigh approx. 50 pounds. Our yard is fenced in so they go in and out. I take them on walks and hikes to nearby waterfalls. They are fed twice a day, just dry food once and with shredded chicken the second time. I also bath them and trim their nails and brush their teeth. I would be happy to assist where I can with your pets routines.

About: I have a Bachelor's degree in Zoology, and Associates degree in Science and have cared for other peoples pets since I was 17 (August, 3 2026 I'll be 22) besides caring for my parents dogs and cats. I have expireance with special care needs like diabetic pets who need to be given insulin shots, elderly dogs with oral pills they would rather not take, and bouncing puppies who need to let out alot of energy. I also have owned many animals since I was little with minimal parental help. These animals include dogs, cats, snakes, mice, rats, fish, birds, spiders, and frogs. I have experience in highschool vet care and college lab and field experience in herpetology, ornithology, and ictheology. Your fur babies will love spending their time with me when you can't be there. I just graduated college and would love to make money doing somthing I'm good at; careing for animals. Since I just graduated and don't have another job currently I'm free at most times and would love to be of service to you. I will give my undivided attention to make sure your animal is happy and well cared for. I can take your dog to the dog park, and if you want I can bring my dog over for them to play. Dog/cat's needs and feed schedules can be precise. When I was caring for my aunts Diabetic cat I had to feed half of a 1/4 cup give him his insulin shot then feed the other half, this had to happen at 6am and 6pm exactly. The shot had to go into his opposite hip every time (left morning, right afternoon). I hope to offer your pet similarly the best care imaginable.

“Consistently reliable and trustworthy! I always know she will take great care of our boy when we book her!”

About: I'm a living cliche' : Reclusive award-winning best-selling novelist on the lake (I work outside--lakeside--when weather permits). I don't see many humans...I prefer dogs; they're my muse. And the more, the merrier. My life revolves around my own 2 dogs, and they love company and play-dates! I work mostly outside, if weather permits, under my huge covered patio overlooking the lake. With plenty of supervised playtime, your dog will have endless opportunities to engage in fun activities and exercise with George & Steve, while enjoying a huge view of the lake and the forrest. My yard is fenced in with plenty of room for the dogs to play. My home is is designed with my pets' comfort in mind. Cozy beds, tons of toys, and soft blankets... and social-sleeping (sleeps in Pack Mama's room with the pack on the bed--or on a dogbed on the floor) for companionship and comfort. Crates available upon request.
