2. Ellen M.
“ELLEN WAS FANTASTIC!!! After some bad experiences with friends that did our pet sitting my husband was super against a stranger coming into our house to take care of our furry children. As we just moved to a new state and hadn't made any friends we could even ask, he agreed to give Rover a try. He has very high standards of care and treatment, so this was a big step for him. Together, we looked over the profiles, read reviews and looked at the number of repeat customers the pet sitters had. He was impressed with Ellen, so we set up a meet and greet (m&g). He was still very anxious about leaving the "children" the morning of our m&g and wanted to just cancel our Anniversary cruise instead of taking a chance. After meeting Ellen, he felt SO much better that we completed the booking. He loved getting the updates of her visits, it helped him to relax. When we got home, he looked everything over very carefully and declared the experience a HUGE success! We are already talking with Ellen about setting up the next booking. It is so nice to have someone we can depend on to care for and treat our "children" the way we would. Ellen, I can't thank you enough for providing such peace of mind for my husband so that he can now fully relax and enjoy our vacations!!!”

13. Lucy T.
“Lucy was great! We’d recommend her to anyone who wants their baby well taken care of. She came over the day before to familiarize herself with our dog and she did the job the next day responsibly and with tender, loving care. She sent us pictures and stayed in touch.”
14. Breanna C.
“I’ve known Breanna for about 3 years now, and since the day I met her, she’s shown nothing but care and love to those around her, including animals. She has a dog of her own, which she treats with so much love and adoration, you’d think it was her own child. Anytime there are animals around us, whether we go out for coffee, take a walk around town, or go to a friends house, she always spends the most time playing with them, taking them for walks, or trying to teach them tricks. I would, without a doubt, trust her to watch any of my animals while I’m away, because I know with her, they’re in the best care possible.”

About: I am a 37 year old woman who has worked at vet clinics as a groomer/tech for 10 years and 1 years as a professional dog walker and pet sitter. I do offer service for more than dogs and kitties. I also have experience caring for reptiles and birds. If you have livestock please feel free to message me. I have had a variety of pets my entire life both domestic and livestock. I worked as a dog walker, pet sitter, and groomer in Memphis then eventually Boston. I am now in Georgia. I stay home full time in a house on 14 acres. We have a 500sqft fenced in play yard for the dogs. Your pet will get to enjoy lots of play time and walks (on leash) or off leash if you have an e-collar, play time in the play yard, kiddie pools for swimming during warmer months, and lots of comfy naps on the many dog beds we have for our guests. Feel free to bring your pet's bed, smelling their own home can make them feel more comfortable. I live with my boyfriend who also loves pets! We do have an 8 year old spayed cat that is used to dogs staying over. We also have a 4 year old, neutered German Shepherd mix, a 4 year old hound mix, and a 6 year old Jack Russell mix. So your pet would have plenty of interaction both human and animal! If your dog isn't cat friendly no big deal, we have a cat room! Just message me. Monthly flea and tick as well as heartworm prevention is recommended as we do live in the woods. I do require proof of up to date vaccinations. I am a trained pet groomer so I am very familiar with taking care of a pet's coat if brushing is required. If you'd like me to give your pet a bath, trim nails, express anal glands, clean ears, brush teeth feel free to inquire about prices. Disclaimer- Prices depend on breed and condition of the coat and services requested It is not just the flat $35. am currently not set up to do haircuts in my home but I can do basic sanitary cuts, trim faces, nails, ears, and bath. About this sitter: I am a 36 year old woman who has worked in a vet clinic setting for 8 years. I am comfortable with all breeds/sizes as well as special needs pets. I am fairly quiet. We enjoy a good Netflix binge,. cooking, museums, video games, hiking, fishing, and reading. My boyfriend and I have a 6 year old cat and a 2 year old pup so if your pup is staying in our home we do need them to be cat friendly. Why I love dog sitting I have grown up with dogs and other animals my entire life. I have worked at vet clinics since 2005 as a pet groomer but was also taught to perform tech duties. I had a highly successful dog walking and boardinf business in Boston. I have former client references available. The household Is a 3 bedroom home on 14 acres. There is a small fenced in area for quick potty breaks, a large unfenced yard and we love to go on leashed hikes on our land. I give your pet the personalized attention and affection that they require. I do offer overnight stays in your home with no dog limit. Client references for that as well. This also covers mail, packages, plant care, and leaving your home exactly the way it was left. Many dogs (and cats) prefer to be in their own environment My experience administering medication Having worked at vet clinics and also having a family pet that required daily medication, I am quite comfortable administering mediation. My pets and I have our own routine but I will keep your pet on their normal schedule. I am home 7 days a week. We have a large fenced,play yard that encompasses the front and back yard for off leash fun. I do hikes on our back acreage on leash or e-collar if your dog has good recall. In your home everything is exactly the way you care for your pet. I stick to their schedule and how you care for them. I encourage clients to email me or leave a written schedule and any important information about the house and get information.

About: I own & sit for many years. I’ve trained & i’m open to elderly pets. Animals are truly my passion! I understand that everyone needs a vacation from time to time and I’m here to secure the pet sitter option. I work part time so I have plenty of time for drop in and walks! Open to dogs & cats no matter how large or small. I have 2 German shepherds and the are complete opposites. I understand the need & wants from a dog that likes to sleep and occasionally pet and one that has enough energy to play sunrise and way past bedtime.
