About: Registered Veterinary Technician who works emergency medicine on the weekends looking for extra work through the week. I can’t stay at your house overnight, but your pet can come to mine. I can also do drop ins pretty regularly. I graduated college with a degree in Veterinary technology and passed my state boards. I work at an emergency clinic in Atlanta on the weekends and right now I’m free through the week. I can try my best to work out whatever you need help with. I’m skilled at giving medications and anything basic your pet may need in home, as well as lifesaving care due to any emergency. I can keep non child friendly cats in a different area, but dogs must be child friendly. I do have cats & ferrets, but they can be kept separately if your animals are not cat & small rodent friendly. I have 2 dogs as well. All of my animals are pet friendly with everything as many animals have come through my care fostering. I'm skilled in exotic pet care as well if necessary. I currently only work weekend overnights in the ER. So, I am home all week caring for my fur babies. As well as yours hopefully! I strive to care for anyone's else's pets exactly as I would my own. When they are with me, they are my babies too. I bring my ER compassion with me when I pet sit, in the ER the pets are without their owners & they are scared on top of being hurt. While my pet sits may not be hurt, I'm aware they could be nervous & unfamiliar. I try to treat them with the upmost compassion & kindness.

About: Hi, please call me Kat! I am a lifelong animal lover with over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s a shy senior, a bouncy puppy, or a special needs pet, I’m here to offer calm, compassionate, and reliable care tailored to their unique needs. I’ve been lovingly referred to as a “pet whisperer” by friends, family, and clients thanks to my gentle and nurturing presence; pets naturally gravitate toward me, and I treat every one like my own. I’m experienced with administering medications, supporting detailed routines, and making pets feel safe & cared for while their humans are away. Additionally, I have dedicated time to curating my care to make sure you receive a truly specialty service. While I always ensure I leave your home exactly how you left it, I offer optional add-on home cleaning and laundry services. I never mind having additional duties like tending to your flower garden, skimming the pool, and signing for packages either! I like to surprise, and wow, you & your pets. Complimentary treats, toys, teaching them a new trick, or getting the shy babies to open up like never before. I enjoy keeping things fun and exceeding the expectations. Can’t wait to meet your furry family! I offer overnight stays, drop-ins, and walks; all in the comfort of your home! In-home care removes the stressor of an unfamiliar environment for your furry friend. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility to stick to your pet’s schedule and offer plenty of one-on-one time. I am a local commuter student; my current schedule is 9:30AM-1:30PM Tues/Thurs. Let me know ahead of time if a prior arrangement is needed; I am more than happy to adjust my schedule accordingly. You'll get plenty of cute photo and video updates (frequency customized to your preference!) so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am Pet CPR & First Aid certified with a personal vet tech contact for additional peace of mind. A substantial part of my career is in the pet industry, so I am well-versed in central aspects of pet wellness and safety. Body language, chewing styles, vigilance against tick/flea/other disease vectors; please feel free to ask questions and see if any of my other skills meet your pets needs. I know more than my fair share on preventing unwanted pests bothering our pups and cats; I am vigilant with maintaining pet health by implementing best practices against flea, ticks, and mosquitoes.

About: I have taken care of dogs for at least 15 yrs. Mostly, I take care of my own dogs, including after surgery care and provide. Sometimes, I would also provide doggy daycare for my neighbors. I currently have one 7-yr old Australian cattle dog. I currently work from home so your dog(s) will have all the attention they need. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds in my home. I have a fenced backyard that they can play in and/or run around to their heart content. My dog is also a playmate for your furbaby.

“Sandy was great this was first time for my little one to stay with someone definitely will use her again. I felt comfortable leaving her there I knew she would take great care of my Lacey.”

About: My family and I have owned dogs since I can remember. I usually have two or more dogs on my own in the house along with two cats. I cared for 10 puppies from birth all the way up until they found their homes. As a child one of my first jobs was to help out with neighbors pets while they were on vacation. I work part time and I am usually available during work days and weekend mornings. Let me know what you need and I will be as flexible as possible. I keep all dogs in my climate controlled indoor outdoor facility with a dog park on the side to let everyone play. I have three dogs, two cats, two horses, and lots of chickens.

“Jennifer had great communication and her availability - even on short notice really helped watching my two dogs. She met us at the car and was very responsive on any check-ins. Super friendly and will use again!”

“Brian and Yui were very accommodating of our fairly last minute travel schedule, and sent us several photos during their stay. Our pups were happy and well cared for. Thanks!”

“Couldn’t be happier. Ryan was my first Rover experience and I am very pleased and now don’t ever need to find another dog-sitter. Rider was in good company, well socialized and able to have a great day playing with new friends and getting some long needed affection and guidance (he is fresh out of being in shelters for most of his 3 short years of life). Looking forward to having Ryan looking after Rider again in the future and I know Rider is too. Well-earned 5 star rating.”

About: I have been raising animals of all breeds and species since I was 4 years old; my grandparents farm on the reservation always maintained at least 20-30 animals. I had my first goat, 4 dogs, a guinea pig and an African parrot named BoBo when I was 2. I am an ASPCA guardian, a WWF defender, PETA advocate and currently have 4 dogs of my own. They range in size from 110lbs of solid muscle to the slender 18lb body of the chiweenie whom is my newest (3 years in March). My dogs are all very well behaved, are not restricted to any areas or from furniture and are never exposed to potential dangers. My animals will be at our second home when any animals are in the home unless specified as a non-issue by the pet parent. The “bottom line” is your pets are treated like my pets and my pets are my family. Very simply, they are my life and you can guarantee yours will be treated the same. I specialize in elderly care, special needs, etc. you name it, I’ve fostered/adopted it I’m hoping to begin to do this full time soon, god willing. For now I am part time but a full time animal lover. For the next month I have free time all weekend I take care of them however and whenever they need taken care of. You just have to have keen senses and anticipate things even if they never happen, that’s how you stay prepared

About: I have taken care of different kinds of animal my entire life. Because of their unconditional love I find tremendous satisfaction when caring for and loving them. I am recently retired and can think of no better way to spend my time. Animals soothe the soul. I am very comfortable around all breeds. I do not have a fenced yard, but it is private. My dog is a member of the family, not a pet and your precious angel will be treated the same!

About: I have taken care of all of my animals since before I can remember. Walking them, playing with them, feeding them, bathing them, and picking up after them. I've had many dogs growing up ranging in different health needs and breeds. I've also had cats and so I have a lot of experience with them as well! I have a poodle, named Kai, and so I also have experience when it comes to grooming dogs as well! I also have experience with bearded dragons, sheep, horses, goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cows, and pigs. I'm currently a online college student that moved to the state of Georgia in 2021. I'm available just about any day and any time to care for your pets. When going to my clients home, I first notify them that I have arrived, I then greet the pets and take them right outside to go potty. If they made a mess of any sorts and the yard is fenced, I will leave the pets out to clean up then go back outside to play with them and get out some of their energy. If the yard isn't fenced and they made a mess I will bring them in with me and watch them while I clean up. Once done with all of the things that need to be done to care for the pets, I will inform the client of everything I did as well as how the pet behaved and give update photos/videos when requested to have them.

About: I’ve always had some kind of pet since I can remember whether that was a fish, frog, shrimp, rabbit, cat, or dog! I LOVE ANIMALS! I am that person at a family gathering/ party hanging out with the pet - not the people! ☺️ I currently have a 14 year old “lab/retriever” (I think part Rottweiler somewhere down the line) that I got from the humane society when she was a puppy - she’s the best part of every day! I’ve taken care of my aunts boxer while she has been out of town (during her heat cycle once) and my other aunts Beta fish! I appreciate the opportunity to take care of the best part of your day! 😊 I am currently working from home and starting my own business Capriluna🌙! I take care of my dog daily so I understand the need of pet care! My dog stays inside and is fed 3 times/day. She is a senior so potty breaks are frequent. She currently is not on any medication but does take joint care medicine daily. When watching my aunts boxer she is fed twice daily and a good bit younger, so her potty breaks are not as often. During her heat cycle, she remained in diapers (obviously except for potty breaks and outside time). Any pets that stay will receive the same amount of care/attention as my own dog. My dog is NOT a social dog and has been alone her whole life and out of respect for her space and comfort, all guest dogs staying over will stay in my office (NEVER in the same area as my dog). They will have separate potty breaks, walks, feeding, attention, etc. Her care and comfort is priority to me and I hope you as pet owners can understand this. Also, crates will need to be provided by the owner for overnight stays (until I can afford to buy one for my clients).

About: I have 10 years experience in specialized cat care, medication dispersal and tube feeding. I'm great with puppies who are still being trained and have a knack for keeping pets at ease. I work with dogs, cats, livestock, and most small housepets. I work part time in between being a pet and human mom. It's a fun experience to go care for other people's babies and I do best with afternoons or late evening trips. Very experienced with little escape artist dogs and keeping them contained. Can work with crate or non crated dogs. I am experienced with cats and keeping them clean and content, as well as farm animals.

About: I've worked with cats and dogs for my family for most of my life. I've pet sat as well as taken care of my own animals. I love cats so much and dogs as well! I'm able to take them out on walks, feed them, and play with them. I'm a full-time student with classes at night on Monday and Thursday. Besides that I am free to take care of pets at any time during the week! I have two dogs at my house, along with 3 cats. I will gladly take care of any cat or dog in someone's home, without making any sort of mess. Everything will be taken care of with your pet and I will make sure they have the best care while you are away.

About: I’m dedicated, patient and caring with every pet regardless of how challenging they can appear to be. It takes a lot of love to be loved. I currently work from home and have the flexibility to care for other pets as I do for my own. I’m available most any time with appropriate notice. I have a ton of experience to care for pets and handle situations others might not be able to since I have 3 pets of my own and have for over 18 years.

About: The family or just myself enjoy walks with the dog, we call it “our exercise time.” I have small children, 5, 7 and 9 but we're all a big dog lover. We have a dog of our own who is 1 years old, shitzu, very playful. Our home is fenced. My husband works from home twice a week. Our daily schedule would be feeding the dogs before we leave and take them out twice before we head out to school or work and by 3:30pm - 4:00pm we're home and all about the pups. I have a fenced yard and I have a dog who can keep your pup company. If the weather is nice, I’ll let mine play in back for awhile until I see he’s getting tired or there’s no more breeze, it breaks me to see a dog just laying outside, haha. My children love animals and every chance they get, they'll give them hugs and lots of love. (Even if they see a dog in public lol) This is a nonsmoking household.

“Bristol was in great care, Paul and Family treated her like family and we will definitely call on Paul again”
