“Rufus and I were very suddenly put together by fate it would seem. I desperately needed help with his care to compensate for my schedule. Aneisha has been an amazing help in getting Rufus acclimated to his new home and routine. Simply excellent.”

About: Powered by passion, fueled by happy tails, and alongside a strong foundation in veterinary medicine, I am committed to providing compassionate, knowledgeable care. I take pride in forming trusting relationships with every pet I meet Pets free roam! I have an area for feeding, able to walk pets several times throughout the day, and my home provides a quiet/stress free environment for both dogs and cats! Pet care and enrichment are my top priority. I provide multiple walks throughout the day, positive reinforcement, and approved treats. Daily playtime is included!

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
“Kristen was wonderful with my two big babies! She came in clutch after two other Rovers fell through and I had to scramble to find a new sitter for the next day in a new neighborhood. Punctual, flexible, responsive and reliable. Can't thank her enough! 🐶❤️🐶”

About: Hi! I'm Monique, an Australian farm girl who's been surrounded by working dogs my entire life. I grew up with Kelpie sheepdogs and have always been amazed by a dogs intelligence, loyalty, and energy. As an endurance athlete, I'm already out walking and hiking several times a week, so I love bringing energetic four-legged companions along for the adventure. If your dog thrives on long walks in nature or by the river in addition to neighborhood strolls, you've found the right walker. I specialize in giving high energy, active dogs the exercise and mental stimulation they crave through longer walks on the Atlanta BeltLine, local parks, the Chattahoochee and nature trails. What you can expect: • Long, engaging walks tailored to your dog's energy level • Plenty of water breaks and a safety-first approach • Lots of sunshine and fresh air. Dirt on their paws! • Photo and video updates so you can follow along on our adventures • Lots of positive attention, encouragement, and affection I’m currently available Monday–Friday from 7am–6pm, with plenty of flexibility depending on your dog’s needs. For longer trail runs and hikes, I require a minimum hour booking however 90 mins to 120 mins is best to allow for travel time. I prefer early mornings before rush-hour traffic or between 10am–12pm, when we can make the most of the cooler, quieter hours outdoors. I’m also happy to accommodate regular walks, drop-ins and other pet-care needs throughout the day. Your doggo’s safety and wellbeing always come first. I’m especially passionate about caring for active dogs who love long walks, trail hikes and exploring the outdoors, but I’m equally happy to care for dogs who prefer a slower stroll, a backyard hangout or plenty of couch time. For trail adventures, I choose dog-friendly routes based on your dog’s fitness, age, temperament and experience, and I always carry water, waste bags and a phone. I keep a close eye on dogs throughout our time together and follow your instructions around leash use, recall, feeding, medications and any other routines that help your dog feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pup is an energetic trail companion or a senior who enjoys a gentle walk and lots of cuddles, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy, safe and having a great time.

My work schedule is very flexible, allowing me to take my time to care for your critters! A large part of my job is responding to wildlife emergencies using years of experience and best-judgment decision making, which makes for a great pet-sitter.

My flexible schedule affords me ample time to provide proper attention to animals. I have a calm demeanor with strong attention to detail when it comes to care instruction. My experience as a wildlife biologist has trained me how to monitor animals for emergencies and how to be calm in the face of the unknown or unexpected. I am used to following strict research protocol, so following along for the care of your animal will be a breeze.

About: I’m an animal lover, and have 2 cats of my own. I’ve recently returned to Atlanta after 4 years in Europe. I’ve grown up taking care of both cats and dogs - at the peak we had 4 cats and 2 dogs. I’ve also done pet sitting for friends, family and internationally. I’ve volunteered and fostered dogs through LifeLine, so I have experience with a wide array of ages and temperaments. I have a hybrid job which gives me increased flexibility during the week to care for your family members. I work 9-5, but on my office days I can easily pop home at lunch to check on your pets. Other days of the week, I’ll be working at home. I have a fenced in back yard, so your dog can roam around and explore.
