About: While I've had pets my entire life, I've professionally cared for the animals of others for nearly 10 years. While I was in the Army, I fostered for a local rescue and did the basic training and socialization for young, abandoned puppies to get them ready for forever homes. While pursuing my BS of Animal Science at ISU (Class of '19) I worked at Lloyd Veterinary Medical Hospital with equines of all ages, and spent several years as professional Animal caretaker working at the USDA with small animals. I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, as well as rodents and other small animal pets, geckos, and freshwater aquarium fish. I am semi-retired, and work my own hours part time so schedule is flexible and it's easy for me to fit your pet(s) into my daily life Your pets will be most comfortable in their own environment, and I am committed to caring for them in a way most similar to what they are accustomed to.

“Natalie is great- super sweet and very reliable! She dropped in daily to take care of my two kitties while I was out of town for an entire week. She was very responsive when I messaged her a couple of details I had forgotten while I was away. She consistently checked in around 11am every day, even though I told her I didn't really care if she stuck to that time or wanted to be more flexible. I hope to work with Natalie again in the future, and 10/10 would recommend!”


About: I am a veterinary student beginning this Fall at UGA, and also have been a veterinary assistant locally for the past 3 years. I have plenty of experience in basic care such as potty breaks, but can also administer medication and watch out for concerning symptoms! I have dog-sat for the veterinarian I work for, and many friends! I will be in veterinary school with a full-time schedule during the week. I am happy to provide morning and evening checks, but a 3rd visit is not guaranteed during the week. I am very available on weekends! I won’t be providing care in my home, however, will provide gentle care in my clients homes. I have set a radius close to my own house, so there will be minimal use of anything in yours other than caring for your pet!

“Nevaeh was absolutely FANTASTIC! Mila absolutely LOVED her & with my hesitancy of leaving Mila with someone we’d never met - Nevaeh was truly a godsend. She made me & my husband feel so comfortable leaving one of our most prized possessions with her. We 100% will book her again & we’ve already started recommending her to our family & friends. We truly can’t say thank you enough! We look forward to our next booking. Thank you SO much Nevaeh!”


“Mattie was amazing to take care of our pets during the storm. She calmed them down and went the extra mile to take the dog on a walk during the breaks to stretch her doggie legs. Mattie also made sure our house was ok during the storm.”


About: I have been taking care of fur babies for what seems like forever. I will take care of your baby with the utmost of care and love. I have experience with crate training, working with pups on how to walk on a leash, administering medications, and cleaning litter boxes. I also believe that communication is key so I will give updates and you can text me anytime you need get an update. Your baby will be taken care of while you are away. I work Monday through Friday. I can check on your pet once I get off and I am available on the weekends. It is just best to get in touch with me and we can work out what schedule works out best. I live in an apartment complex so I would walk your dog on a leash and there is an area for dogs to play if that is something that is in interest to you. If I am at your home, I will make sure the dog is taken out when needed, fed and given water when needed, and the litter box is clean. I can also administer medications or vitamins if needed.

About: I am an experienced dog owner and sitter. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including cats and dogs, and have owned multiple dogs since living on my own. Currently, I have one small chiweenie and regular dogsit dogs including Cocker Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, and Great Pyrenees. Shy or nervous rescue pets are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. Pets with medical issues are welcome as I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with a variety of issues who’ve needed everything from shots throughout the day or diaper changes or to receive mobility assistance. I also have experience caring for chickens if you need someone to care for your chicks. I work full-time, but I am done at 4:30PM every weekday except for Friday - on Fridays, I am done at 1 PM. I also have flexibility in my schedule, so I can stop by to take care of any needs during the day or work from home if a pet needs additional care. I am up early every morning to give pets plenty of time to eat and play before leaving. When I get home, the first thing I do is let pets out to potty and to play. Throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for walks and playtime before bed. . First and foremost, I will strive to match or mimic the care and routine you give your pets at home. With a fenced in yard, your pet will have a safe place to potty and play. There are also many parks nearby to take your pet on walks or provide them with socialization. Pets are able to climb on furniture, sleep on my bed, and have mostly free rein of the house — my home is their home while we’re here. However, I have a pet gate I can put up and experience crating pets (as well as crate training dogs) for any pet who can’t be left free to roam.

About: I grew up surrounded by loving animals. With four dogs, five cats, a rabbit, and some chickens, you could say I have some experience with caring for them. I fostered cats for animal shelters for nearly 5 years, and now I own one myself. I strive to provide the best care to make animals happy and comfortable. Being a UGA doctorate student, I will be the most available on weekends! However, I may be available during the week. Let me know, and we can work something out. At my client’s home, I will carefully follow all outlined instructions. If any medications are needed, I will make sure they are given correctly, and feeding will be done consistently. I will also pay close attention to the animal’s behavior to ensure its comfort.

About: I have had my own cats and been a pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors the majority of my life. Cats are precious and very particular. I am good at being patient and kind and have always been able to make a connection, even with strays. I’m a teacher just looking to make a little extra money doing what I love. My own cat is like my child so I understand the importance of having someone you can trust with your precious pet. I am a teacher during the day. I am available to drop in any weekday or weekend in the afternoons or evenings after 4pm most days. I enjoy playing with cat toys, loving on cats, or just sitting with them so they aren’t alone. Cats need time to acclimate to a new person. Sometimes a simple interaction is all they need.
