About: Hey there! I am a 24 year old animal lover based in Hartwell, GA. I have a tuxedo cat and a Dalmatian, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I am very reliable and love giving animals all the attention they need, whether that is playtime, snuggles, or keeping them on their normal routine. I work Monday through Friday from 8 to 3 at a nonprofit which has taught me patience, consistency, and trust. I also occasionally photograph weddings, so I am organized and dependable. Outside of work, I love traveling, Trader Joe’s, mac and cheese, and peonies. Your pets will be treated like family with me, and you can feel confident they are in caring hands 🩵 I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and energy to care for your pets! Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they’re happy and well-loved while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets just like I care for my own! I’ll stick to your routine, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and loved. I’ll give them plenty of attention, whether it’s playtime or snuggles, and follow any specific instructions you have. You can count on me to keep their space clean, their mood happy, and their routine intact, all while making sure they feel comfortable and safe in their own home!!
“Kathleen is truly amazing! She cares for your pets as if they were her own, showing so much attention, kindness, and genuine love. Leaving your pet is always stressful, but she made the whole experience so much easier by keeping me updated on my cat’s day. She’s incredibly thoughtful, and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets and peace of mind when you’re away from home.”

About: Hi there! I’m Grace — a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I grew up with two cats, one timid and one diabetic, so I learned early on how to handle medications and even give injections with care and patience. Now, my husband and I share our home with two lovable black lab rescues — one who’s reactive and needs extra reassurance, and another who’s the definition of friendly! We also have a sweet outdoor orange cat who decided our yard was home. Because of my background, I’m comfortable with pets who are shy, anxious, or have medical needs, as well as those who just want all the cuddles and playtime. I’ve pet-sat for friends and family for years, and I treat every animal like my own — with love, respect, and attention to their unique personality. Whether your pet needs a calm presence, an active play buddy, or just someone reliable while you’re away, I’d love to help! i’m currently working as a full-time Wedding photographer. So, I have a schedule that is pretty flexible throughout the week. On the weekends, I’m available in the mornings and nights. However, I typically am wrapped up at a wedding during the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every animal has their own personality, boundaries, and needs — and I take the time to learn what makes them feel secure. Because of my background, I’m experienced with pets who need special attention or medication. I’ve administered insulin injections, handled reactivity with patience and calm, and cared for both anxious and social animals. I believe in gentle communication, positive reinforcement, and maintaining consistent routines so pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be cared for as if they were my own. I keep owners updated with photos, messages, and honest communication so you never have to worry. My goal is simple: for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
About: I had pets as a child. As an adult we became a dog family 10 years ago. He’s stubborn and way smarter than I am. I’ve learned so much loving on our Smitty. I’m patient and love to see their personalities shine. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to discuss your personal needs and work that into my day. I walk my dogs on leash on our property. For you I’d do what your pet is accustomed to. I’m very flexible and able to work with what works for you best.
“I must say I was hesitant at first using Rover and wasn’t sure how it would worked for our situation as our Bear is extremely shy. However it turn out to be such a blessing and peace of mind. And to see the photo updates with Bear were the highlights of my day. I would definitely rebook with Zoe again.”

“Kathleen was so sweet and took great care of Hazel. She also helped me out with a hose I left on and brought in my Amazon packages. I truly appreciated it and will use her again.”

I also have open availability on weekends. I always like to know what the rules of the home are and maintain them. I am big on following your requests and needs and upholding trust.

“Kayla was fantastic. She watched our three dogs and was timely, polite and communicated very effectively. She provided great updates and pics of our dogs. She overcame an obstacle I accidentally created by giving her the wrong street address of the Airbnb and was very pleasant in doing so. The dogs were very well taken care of when we returned. We will definitely try and book Kayla on our next visit.”

About: I’ve always been a dog lover but most importantly loving others like I love my own dog. I enjoy getting to take care of others dogs because I know what it means and feels like to have someone you trust take care of your pets!

“This was a meet and greet visit in preparation for an upcoming drop-in. Susie arrived on time, both dogs took right to her, and we discussed their personalities, routines and needs. I feel very confident that her upcoming visit will go very well.”

About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.
About: I'm Georgia born. I had a dog since I was 4 yrs. old until I moved out on my own. I was raised in the suburbs of Atlanta, so I know about road safety! I worked for apartments for 32 yrs. Every dog I met became my friend instantly. Many owners would laugh and say "why don't you take him/her. They love you so much!" Now I have the time to spend with them, since I retired. And nothing pleases me more than playing with, and walking a dog. It's good for your heart, physically, as well as emotionally. And that's Major! I'm very good with keeping things under control, always with a loving tone! They know they are in good hands. Always good time spent with a dog!
