“I am so happy that Ashley came to take care of our spoiled little babies. My dog Jack has the worst separation anxiety of any animal that I’ve ever known. He can’t be left alone, he will stress out so much, making himself sick and tearing up and house. Once he even chewed up the brass door knob. Ashley was absolutely wonderful with him, she was so patient and attentive to him. I thought our new Siamese kitten was going to worry her most but he was just playful and happy. All 3 of my animals were so well taken care of, if you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. I will use her again and I will recommend her to everyone that I know 🥰”


“Ashley did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs! They are on medications and can be a little rambunctious. I will definitely rebook when our next trip comes up.”


“Danielle did a great job! Thunder seemed very content when we arrived home. Danielle did everything we asked of her, she was reliable and I didn't have to worry about Thunder while we were gone. We will use her again! Thank you, Danielle!”


“Kattie was incredible! We had a last minute family emergency and she came to help. My dogs have absolutely loved her. I have several special needs dogs with meds needed. She was comfortable and great with administering them. We got daily pictures which helped out our minds at ease. If you need a great person that goes above and beyond for your pups this is your lady. Thanks again Kattie.”

“Tekera was amazing, communicates well, punctual and very sweet. My big girls loved her and didn’t want to see her go. We will be booking her again.”

About: What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and the genuine care I give to each pet. I take the time to understand their needs and routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.I also work a part-time position at the post office in Athens, which is a great perk because I get to see lots of dogs on my route. It’s a fantastic way to combine my love for animals with my daily routine! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, I currently work a part-time job and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I currently live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and am working toward getting a house soon. I’m flexible and happy to provide care that fits your pet’s needs and what you’re most comfortable with.

“This is the first time I've ever needed to hire a pet sitter for my senior cat, so I was very nervous about having a stranger in my home and how my fur baby would react. However, Jennifer eased my mind about the whole process. She was understanding and communicative, which was greatly appreciated. This was just an an overnight trip, but she will be taking care of him again soon when I'll be gone longer. It's such a relief to know I can get some R&R knowing that my pet and my home are in good hands. ?”
