“Cynthia has been by far the best cat sitter we have hired. We were out of town for over 2 weeks and were anxious about what to do about our 3 cats. With our previous sitter, behavioral issues occurred and our cats decided to poop all over the house, plus they seemed visibly upset upon our return. Cynthia provided updates and photos during each visit and gave them lots of attention. They were happy when we returned and showed no signs of stress. Cynthia also did a great job with cleaning our multiple litter boxes and bringing the mail in. She went beyond our expectations!!”

“Jeff did a great job watching my two cats, making sure they got their food, meds, and lots of snuggle time or just time with some company. He was very responsive, was respectful of all my requests - including a bit of a crazy food/med routine - and I could tell my cats really bonded with him and were happy to see him. It's always such a relief knowing your pets are being well cared for while you're away!”

About: My dream life is to own 50 acres of land and rescue and save ALL THE DOGS! But in the meantime, I foster, adopt, rescue and care for as many dogs as I can, whenever I can. I have been taking care of large dogs for all of my adult life, rescuing dozens of dogs from the streets of Atlanta to beginning my fostering journey this past December while residing in Florida. I have gotten every dog I have fostered into a forever, loving home with a few foster fails along the way :) (oops). I have worked with aggressive dogs, behavior-challenged dogs, trauma induced dogs, fearful dogs and every other dog in between. And I have loved them all. My greatest joy in life (after caring for my two young daughters) is saving and taking care of dogs. I will honor your fur baby's requirements, desires, needs and wants to a T and will provide the utmost professional and expert care to your animal at all costs. I have trained challenging dogs in an environment that is positive and reward-based all while maintaining boundaries and full control of every situation. I have experience walking numerous dogs at once and will make sure your pet is safe and secure at all times. I will love your baby as my own and will make sure they are played with, walked, watered and pampered while in my care! Dogs are my passion and I look forward to taking care of sweet furry angel! I am currently a stay at home mom, with two kiddos in school, so I have plenty of morning and day time hours to take care of your furry baby. I am also available for night sitting, weekend and over night care with enough notice. I will make sure your dog goes outside, whether you want me to play fetch in the backyard or take your pup on a leisurely and/or adventure walk in the woods. I will make sure your dog has water, and a comfy crate (if you crate your dog) and/or make sure everything is secure in your home for your dog according to your needs and requests. I will feed your dog, administer medicine if necessary, play with your dog, work on training if you request, clean up any messes, and anything else in between that is in accordance to your doggo's daily schedule. Your wish is my command!

“My cat Charlie was in the best hands! She was punctual, professional, communicative, and attentive. She went above and beyond to make sure Charlie got the best possible care. During my week away from home I trusted that my pet was being cared for and I didn’t have to worry one bit. Would absolutely book again and recommend to friends!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 35 years. I am able to administer medications including injectable’s if needed. I work with all breeds and temperaments, and do not shy away from pets that have behavioral issues. I’ve worked extensively with large farm animals to include horses, goats, donkeys, and cattle and have cared for the occasional parrot, chinchilla, and snake. Since pet sitting is my only employment, I am able to provide companionship to your fur family 14-18 hours daily including overnight care. I also am able to check mail, grab packages, and water plants at no additional charge. I keep to your pets normal daily routine, to include walks, potty breaks, feeding schedule, and of course nap times. Let’s set up a meet and greet to see if I’m a good fit. Currently I am only doing pet sitting and it’s my primary and only employment. This enables me to spend more time with your fur babies. I care for pets in your home as requested. I stick to their normal daily schedule. I also water plants and grab mail as needed.

About: My partner and I bring over 10 years of dog care experience and 5+ years managing a stable multi-dog group. We carefully watch body language, work to prevent issues early, and keep feeding routines steady so each dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We’re comfortable working with multi-dog households, different energy levels, and group dynamics. Our focus is creating a safe, structured, and positive environment where dogs can socialize, play, and settle comfortably. My specialty is organization and structure, my partner specializes in socialization and behavioral management. Pet care is part of our daily life. Someone is home throughout the day. We organize our schedule around the dogs in our care so they receive consistent supervision, play, and individual attention. We have a fenced backyard and fenced front yard, giving dogs safe space to move, explore, and play. Inside we provide a dedicated dog room and crates for dogs of all sizes, creating a comfortable and secure place for them to rest when needed. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped by temperament, with attention to proper rest rotation and consistent feeding routines to support balance and comfort. Whether in our home or a client’s home, we focus on safety, supervision, and each dog’s individual needs. We follow established routines, maintain a steady and secure environment, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and at ease.

About: *9/2026: Back on the app after a hiatus due to meeting capacity for clients, currently looking for regular local clients after some of my previous clients have moved out of state! I am a pediatric physical therapist looking to dogsit on weekends or walk dogs. Walking or running with your dog(s) will allow me to stay active, and I am sure your pup will thank you for it! I get off on Fridays at 11:30AM and am free until Sunday nights at 10:00PM. My experience is fairly eclectic. I have fostered dogs for Houlagan's Rest and BARKVa for the 4 years, and currently have 2 adopted dogs of my ow (both foster fails!): a sweet American Bulldog mix named Big Mama, and a Black and Tan Coonhound Mix named Dusty. Fostering has allowed me to work with breeds, ages, and learning abilities of all kinds. I have leash trained, potty trained, and been a medical foster for those who have just been spayed/neutered as well as other medical complications. I am very comfortable with dogs that have barrier/food/dog aggression, as well as anxiety. In addition to my fostering/owning my own pups, I raised both of my childhood dogs (cockapoos) from 8 weeks onward for my mother during my summer breaks. I have also babysat dogs for my friends and family throughout undergraduate school and grad school. I believe that your pup should feel comfortable, safe, and happy throughout their stay with me, so I request that we do a meet and greet before confirming to make sure that I can sufficiently meet you and your dog's needs 😊 I will also be able to stay in your home full-time as my husband will take care of my pups while I am away, so no need to worry about splitting time!!! I am available to dogsit from Fridays after 11:30 AM until Sundays at 10:00PM, and can dog walk on weekends! I typically am home near full-time with your pup, and do not like to leave more than 2-3 hour intervals max most often. When at your home, I am always certain to implement whatever rules you may have. I am experienced with crate training, and am also happy to take the pup on adventures (I often like to go to the farmers market and on long walks around the Richmond Trails.) I am also happy to lounge on the couch and snuggle if that's what they prefer!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, including my own pets and my professional experience as a kennel attendant at a pet daycare. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, baths, medication, and providing care for pets with different needs and temperaments. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to give your pet the same attention, patience, and love I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I plan my days around making sure each pet gets proper care, playtime, walks, and check-ins without feeling rushed. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I pay attention to their behavior, needs, and any instructions provided to make sure they receive the best care possible.

About: Pets are great blessings to our lives and therefore deserve to be treated with the utmost respect and care we can give them. I will treat your pet as if he or she is my own and ensure they are well-taken care of! I grew up owning a dog and have since added 2 more to my family. I shared the responsibilities of feeding them, playing with them, and caring for each dog with my family members. I would be grateful for the opportunity to get to know and care for your pet! I will be free to care for your pet during both weekdays and weekends. I will have more availability during the summer. Can pet-sit overnight on weekdays as well. I will send pictures of your pet for each walk or stay I do. I am also happy to meet with families to get to know the pet before care starts. I can also be reached by phone or email if anything comes up.

We love Kyra so much! Even though we hadn’t needed her services in quite some time she was easy to book, extremely flexible when I made several changes, super attentive to our Mocha - and even pets she wasn’t asked to check on - and kept us up to date all day with notes and photos. Will not hesitate to book with Kyra again and again ☺️.

I’m so happy to have had Nina come over to walk and spend time with my dog Heidi while I was out of town for several weeks this summer. Nina is responsive and great at communicating, and it was clear from her thoughtful daily reports and photos that Heidi loved her visits. She took such good care of Heidi and I loved coming home to a happy dog. I hope to have Nina come take care of Heidi the next time I have to leave town!

Madison has made my work week so much easier and gives me so much peace of mind! I have two labs, one of whom was just a 2-month-old puppy when she first met him. I had struggled to find someone I truly trusted to care for them and love them the way I do, but Madison exceeded all my expectations. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dogs in her care. She’s clearly a big dog person and treats them like her own. She’s reliable, communicates well, and always keeps me updated. I truly can’t recommend her enough!
