“We were extremely happy with the care our 3 dogs received while in Shaquitas home! The pictures we were sent were comforting because they seemed relaxed and also like they were having fun!”


“Haley was so helpful in agreeing to care for Josie after another sitter canceled last minute. It was a long stay and our Josie can be anxious but she seemed very happy at Haley’s house and came home a happy dog. Haley went the extra mile in caring for Josie and has a very kind and positive personality. I will definitively look forward to using her again.”


“As always Nicole took great care of our pups. She goes out of her way to insure they feel comfortable, secure and loved. You can tell because even though they are excited to see us, they always go back to tell Nicole goodbye before we leave.”


“Anna and her husband were wonderful! They were very familiar with watching all types of dogs and knew how to make Gracie feel comfortable! Gracie looked comfortable with them from the moment they met. She can sometimes act different when getting to know someone but was totally fine and happy to be with them for 10 days! I trust them and would definitely use again.”



“Would give 10 stars if we could. Lisa is professional, responsive and took wonderful care of our 2-year-old small breed dog Rita. We were so pleased with her care that we booked a 5-week extended stay for an upcoming overseas trip, with full confidence that Rita will be cared for like her own. We love that she has a dog of her own who is great with ours. Lisa provides daily photos and communication which helped us feel connected. Highly recommend.”


“Kristie and her family were quite a find when I needed a dog sitter as I was going into the hospital getting a knee replacement. They were like a rare jewel. My dog absolutely fell in love with them mostly Kristie but had affection for all. They treated my Cody like he was they’re own. I thought Cody would not even want to come home he was having so much fun. He did did come home but I knew I had a great place to take him whenever I needed a place for total care of my pooch. My pooch is 11 years old and set in his ways but Kristie managed to win his little heart over.”


“Meleah took great care of my Australian Shepherd! She was great with communication and kept me updated with pictures the whole time. She was also very accommodating with last minute bookings. Will definitely book her again!”

About: Hello there! I have 2 dogs, several chickens, quail, and a bunch of bees — and they’re all my babies. 🐶🐔🐝 I work from home in the heart of Athens, so I have a pretty flexible schedule for drop-ins, walks, and snuggles. I’m a fast and effective communicator and LOVE sending pics and videos of your babies while you’re away so you always know they’re SAFE and HAPPY! 📸💛 My only weakness? Too many pet cuddles sometimes give me a little back ache — but I wouldn’t trade the love for anything! 🥰 Looking forward to loving on your fur babies like one of my own! I work fully remote and can break away to take care of your best friend relatively easily. If there are any delays in attending to your pet, I will always communicate effectively. Overcommunication is better than undercommunication in my experience. I have several personal references I am happy to provide who have used my services. Upon request, I have opened my home to overnight stays- I have a fenced in yard with double secure containment and two extremely friendly dogs who grew up with lots and lots of play dates

“Hannah was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures throughout Kovu’s stay, and let me know how he was doing while I was away. We will definitely be contacting Hannah for any future endeavors we have!”


“Alanis was the BEST! Our three Bernedoodles can be a handful but she did great with them and they appeared just as happy as if they were home! She treated them as if they were her dogs! She allowed them to make themselves at home. She sent us lots of pictures and videos during their five day stay there! I’m grateful to have found someone I trust to leave our babies with! Thank you Alanis, for loving our babies like we do!”


About: I have one Aussiedoodle and one furrry cat. I would love to host your fur babies and make them feel at home while they’re away from home.
