About: I always love dogs since I was little girls and I always had this good heart to care for animals when they needed love and never had any. Mon-Fri Mornings walks, and spending time with them so they’re never alone. Dogs are a human bestfriend and they are companion to our needs just like we are to them Showing them love and being there for their needs. I think it is so important to look after dogs because they are our biggest protector

“Took great care of our 2 pups! Thanks again!”


About: My love for Pups started at a very early age and I was fortunate enough to have the chance to grow up with plenty pups. My uncle took care of many breeds, often I worked for him throughout my childhood and that's how the passion really came to me and my experience dealing with pups of all tempers. I provide a safe space for Pups full time, I am always on the job and I'm dedicated to what I love and do which is providing a safe space for Pups while parents are away. Our days begin early. I feed them according to the directions provided and the fun doesn't stop until bed time. I have a comfortable home with a very large fully fenced in yard providing lots of fun for the pups. I'm a full time dog sitter and will always be available to update you on your pups care with pictures and videos.


About: I have been working at boarding facilities, vet clinics,rescues and animal shelters since I was 17 (8 years professional experience!) and am currently working on getting licensed to be a vet tech. I have done both shelter work and TNR. I have handled countless scared and anxious animals as well as rambunctious energy filled babies so I have plenty experience with handling timid animals as well! This is my passion; I do my best to provide the best care that I can for your pet! I am also trained on animal behavior and medicating. I have plenty experience with elderly animals and pets with health concerns. Anything else you'd like to know I'd be happy to answer any questions! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of spare time to spend with your baby! I am usually naturally an early riser and a bit of a night owl so I am prepared for lots of different schedules and routines! I follow each animals' schedule to the T if possible. As well as providing treats and enrichment throughout the entire visit! I also make sure to give them lots of attention and accommodate any sleeping arrangements your animals are used to.

About: With 8 years of pet care experience, I’m passionate about giving dogs the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s long walks through the park, cozy cuddle sessions, or keeping up with their unique routines, I treat every pet like family. My calm and patient nature helps me connect with animals of all personalities, from playful pups to shy seniors. I’m dedicated to ensuring your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a lifelong animal enthusiast, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I’m committed to tailoring my care to meet their individual needs. Let’s chat about how I can keep your pet’s tail wagging! Current Schedule: • Work Hours: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM, Monday to Friday, at a Behavioral Health Organization (5-minute commute from home). • Pet Care Needs: 3-4 daily checks for your pets and park visit • Remote Monitoring: Remote egress/ingress for your dogs. • Free Time: • Weekends: Fully available for long walks and park visits. • Weekdays: Available after work from 6:00 PM to midnight for pet-sitting services. In My Home: • Gated community, no toxic plants, and pet-proofed spaces. Daily checks for hazards, locked cabinets for meds/cleaners. • Smart pet cameras for monitoring. Provide consistent feeding, exercise, and routines tailored to each pup’s needs. Clean, cozy space with bedding, toys, and access to water. Regular walks and playtime in a safe yard or nearby park. In Client Homes (Visits/In-Home Care): Follow client instructions for gates, leashes, and home security. Check for hazards (e.g., open windows, toxic items) on arrival. • Communicate updates via text/photos. Adhere to schedules for feeding, meds, and walks. Respect client privacy and property. Environment: Maintain client’s setup (e.g., crate, bowls). Ensure a calm, clean space with fresh water and comfort items during visits. With 8 years of experience, I prioritize safety with vigilant monitoring, build trust through reliability and communication, and create a nurturing environment for all pups. Available evenings (6 PM-midnight) and weekends.


“Kerry has saved me multiple times now with last minute bookings and I always love the pictures she sends over of the cats during her visits. 10/10 Would recommend booking with Kerry!”


“Salena is absolutely amazing. Salena has been my dog sitter since i moved to ATL and she has been great. She communicates well, shes on time to her visits and my dog loves her. Thank you Salena for being my go to person for Bella. I definitely recommend her for dog sitting needs”


About: I've had dogs my whole life and looked after dogs for members of the family or friends who needed it. I'm great with animals and eager to get to know yours! Don't be shy when it comes to letting me know about your baby's preferred places to walk, toys to play with, or anything else about them that'll help us both have a great time! Trusting someone with your furr baby can be scary but you won't regret it. I'll take all the photos and video to show you they're in good hands! I'm currently working as the night shift lead at Moe's, so I'm able to offer pet care anytime before 3 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday! If you let me know what needs to be done to ensure the happiness and health of your furr baby, I promise I'm up for it!

“Rachel took such great care of our pups and responded quickly when we had a last minute request due to delays in getting home from out of state. She was kind and courteous and communicated with us every step of the way!”


About: Hi! I’m Ensley. Animals are my entire life. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. For the past 3 years I’ve been working at a rescue/ boarding facility, and during that time i worked closely with the head trainer, from basic obedience to socializing anxious pups. My idea of the perfect day is spending hours at the dog park! I am currently only working weekends right now, so I will be available all hours Monday through Friday. Including late nights and early mornings! :) My number one priority is keeping you and your fur babies happy! I’ve cleaned every kind of pet mess imaginable so nothing surprises me. I can guarantee a clean, safe environment as long as I’m involved.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years whether it’s boarding, walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I have experience with all sizes and breeds, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra love. I’m confident with routines, feeding schedules, giving medication, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I treat every dog like they’re my own and love building connections with them! ❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or just cuddles, I make time for pets like they’re part of the family. I enjoy getting outside for breaks with them and keeping their routine consistent and loving🎀🐶 Whether in your home or mine, I provide a safe, loving space, follow routines closely, and keep pets happy, calm, secure, and cared for .🐾

About: I am a passionate animal lover. I am a courteous, sweet hearted, patient person. I am also very flexible. It is okay to text me at anytime. For any last minute calls, If I am working another job, will make sure I am there within 4 hrs or less. Usually, it is immediately. I am very comfortable with all kinds of pets; dogs, cats and others; fun loving and aggressive, big and small. I keep a professional nature with all of my clients. My calm and loving personality gives animals a positive vibe that they feel safe and loved with. Also, don't be afraid to ask me about training and grooming, or even tips about your pet. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I work at home with my regular job. So they have care around the clock. And I coordinate pets as necessary. Puppies get more attention and care than older dogs. But they all get the same amount of love. My yard is partially fenced. I have 1 dog. He is super hyper and friendly. They are leashed walked throughout the day. Starting between 6:30am and 9 am.


About: I am a passionate dog lover and have been since I can remember. I have a large fenced in shady back yard that I treat regularly for fleas and ticks. I live in an older quiet neighborhood (close to the Atlanta Airport) where all the neighbors watch out for each other. I will walk your dog daily, play fetch, daily brush, or whatever your dogs desire. I am currently doing on-line dog grooming, dog obedience, and dog CPR/First Aid through Animal Behavior College and will be certified by June 2015. I provide a safe and comfortable environment inside and outside. Your dog will be my main concern while in my care. I have a female Pitbull puppy who I socialize with people, animals, children, and babies; she is my sweet heart. My son, daughter-in-law, three year old grandson, and their two Chihuahuas live with me at this time and they are animal lovers just like I am. We promise your furry loved one will always want to return for another visit. We hope to hear from you soon, so that you can take care of your business or go on a vacation and not have to worry about your loved furry family member. I will keep you posted daily with pictures so you do not worry while you are away. Look forward to meeting you and your furry family member. Lela About this sitter: I am a very compassionate, caring, and patient person, especially with animals and the elderly. I will love and care for your dog/cat to the point where he/she will always want to come back for another visit. Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs since I can remember. I was always bringing home strays as a little girl and drove my parents crazy. My last three dogs I have adopted from rescues, who have very strict guidelines. This time I chose to raise a puppy from the get go and her name is Zena. Actually, all dogs love me. I have never been without a dog for long and when I didn't have a dog, it was just because I didn't have the time to give them the attention I know they need. About my yard I have a wonderful mostly shaded fenced in back yard with two separate fenced in areas. My yard has three different levels, each lower than the other, but each level ground with barrier walls. If dogs needed to be separated while outside, my yard is equipped for this. All total, I believe it about 2000 square feet, with a shaded back porch as well. My hope would be that I am never in the situation to have to separate dogs, but I am equipped to do this, if needed. My yard is bigger than my house, even though my house is small, it is very comfortable.

Their patience, warmth, and genuine love for pets shine through in every interaction.

He’s watched Max and Luna multiple times, handling everything from special diets to giving Max his meds with ease.

Lela V.

“Lela dog sat for our big baby, Daisy, for an entire month. We were kept updated along with pictures. She has a great yard for dogs and it is obvious that she loves dogs. Daisy actually went into heat while in her care, unexpectedly. Lela took it in stride and made sure she was secure so we didn't have unexpected puppies. We will definitely be taking Daisy back to Lela's. Daisy loved being there and showed no signs of being home sick while at Lela's.”
