Dog Sitting Lithonia

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and dedication to personalized pet care. I have a proven track record of watching my friends' and neighbors' pets for both long and short periods, ensuring they receive the best attention and care while their owners are away. My hands-on approach, genuine love for animals, and commitment to their well-being make me a trusted and reliable choice for pet sitting and dog walking. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. I make home visits to care for pets both before and after work, ensuring they receive the attention and care they need throughout the day. On my off days, I dedicate extra time to provide extended care and companionship. This flexible schedule allows me to be consistently available and attentive, making sure every pet feels comfortable and well-cared for. I care for pets primarily in my clients' homes, providing a familiar and comfortable environment for them. I stay at the client's home for a specified amount of time, during which I play with the pets, feed them, and walk them if needed. I ensure they receive the attention and care they need, monitoring their well-being and making sure they feel secure and happy. My goal is to maintain their routine and comfort, providing peace of mind for pet owners while they are away.

About: I’m not doing this as a side hobby—I live this every day with my own pets. I understand behavior, energy levels, and how to keep animals calm, happy, and cared for. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be understood, respected, and spoiled (in the best way). Because I work from home, I’m around throughout the day and can easily build pet care into my daily routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to handle feedings, walks, and playtime consistently while making sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I have a fenced in yard and my 3 dogs play well with others,I also have 2 cats but they stay in one part of the house and usually let the digs do thsir own thing.

“Sydney did a great job of checking in on our cats while we were away, with daily updates and photos. I'll be reaching out to Sydney again in the future!”

About: I am a wildlife biologist for the Georgia DNR working for the Urban Wildlife Program. I have years of experience dog-sitting, primarily for large- and medium-sized dogs in the Chicago area. 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. I am a wildlife biologist that works from home in Decatur. My workload is quite low so it is easy to fit pet care into my schedule throughout the week. 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.

“We had another excellent time with Marilyn taking care of our cat. Our cat was a little scared from the storms and also threw up, and Marilyn ensured she was in good care! She provided nice updates with how she was doing and took care of all her needs. Thank you Marilyn!”

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life! I have owned and cared for a very wide variety of pets....I have owned a little bit of everything....from fish to a golden retriever....I have owned fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, small dogs and larger dogs, and cats. I currently own 2 guinea pigs and a small cavachon. I really enjoy animal sitting for a family that wants to go some where for a long weekend trip or vacation. But happy to provide your family with any kind of pet services needed. I am always available and can easily work around my clients schedule. My job is very flexible and I am always able to work around my job. I only work 4 days a week, so I have plenty of extra time, both thru the week and on weekends. I don't go out of town very often, so I am usually always available most weekends. I treat all of clients pets like family and hope to build personal relationships with my clients. Personal pics of my client's pets having fun at our home is my specialty. I am also happy to come to your home a couple of times a day to also check on pets. Completely up to my client, whatever they feel comfortable with, I feel comfortable with. My children are very respectful to animals and they also have pets of their own. So they know how to love and treat pets with love and respect.

About: - [ ] Got a pup with endless zoomies or a curious cat who loves laser chases? You found the right sitter! I love keeping energetic pets happy, healthy, and thoroughly entertained.As a holistic and active person, I don't just watch pets—I match their unique energy while providing a grounded, comforting presence. Whether power walks, or dynamic floor play to happily tire out bodies and burn off restless energy. I also have plenty of calm for the older or anxious fur babies that needs more attention wether it’s medications or cuddles. I will take time to get to know each pet individually - [ ] I have an open schedule during the week and I enjoy being active. Going on walks, exercising and stimulating my mind. I especially love doing this with animals. I even make toys to keep cats busy. Finding ways to engage with animals is a true joy for me I believe that animals need consistency as much as they do loving. I will stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. However making sure I tend to the animals needs so an extra walk if necessary. Also making sure I communicate with you through out the day if I’m house sitting

“Denise was a great help in taking care of our cats, Bruce and Indie while we were gone on vacation. Very responsive and friendly. Will be happy to recommend and request in the future! Thank you!”

“Lindsey was amazing with my pup! She was so kind to my baby and made sure he got quality walks, was fed, and had plenty of time to use the restroom. She was very communicative and easy to work with, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely trust her again to watch Saint! Highly recommend.”

About: Hello everyone, my name is Alexandria and I love all animals, particularly dogs. I have grown up with dogs and cats practically my entire life, raising most of them since they were puppies. I currently have two dogs of my own — Pepper, my 10-year-old Dachshund mix, and Carson, my 8-year-old French Bulldog. Both of my dogs are on the smaller side, so my preference is to watch smaller dogs, as they tend to be the best fit for our home dynamic. I joined Rover to earn additional income, as well as to provide a companion for my dogs to hang out and socialize with. My schedule is pretty flexible, which means I can give your fur baby plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I am looking forward to meeting your little fur baby and providing them with a safe, loving, and fun environment while you’re away! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. Because my hours are not rigid, I am able to adapt to just about any routine — whether your dog needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, or a specific feeding schedule, I can make it work. Whatever your dog’s routine looks like at home, just let me know and I will do my best to match it as closely as possible. And if for any reason I am unable to accommodate something specific, I will always be upfront and let you know before booking so there are no surprises. Your dog’s comfort and consistency are always my priority. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, my top priority is making sure your dog feels as comfortable and at ease as possible. I believe in sticking to your dog’s established routine, because familiarity goes a long way in keeping them calm and happy while you’re away. I provide walks in the morning, midday, and in the evening to make sure your pup stays active and gets plenty of fresh air. Feeding is always done according to your dog’s schedule and dietary instructions — I will follow whatever routine you have at home so there are no disruptions to what your dog is used to. I also take the time to understand the individual needs of each dog in my care. Every dog is different, and I want to make sure I’m attentive to their personality, comfort level, and any special requirements they may have. My goal is simply to do my very best to provide a safe, loving, and consistent experience for your fur baby until you return.

“Deb had a challenge ahead of her with my dog Dani's personality. Deb would send me photos of her and Dani on their walks. She also was honest with me about Dani's behavior and told me how she handled it. I found this very helpful and was thankful that Deb had the patients to work with Dani. I came home to a happy, healthy dog. I will use Deb again for doggie house visits.”

“Lyric is 10/10 recommend for sitting your puppies. They fell in love with her in a day and I was sad to see the visits in because they will be looking for her. I will book her in the future 10000000%. Thank you Lyric for taking care of my precious pups.”

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.

“Georgia is fantastic! She’s always on time and very communicative. She always makes sure to send us photos of our fur babies to let us know that they are fine which is a huge weight off our shoulders.”

“Paola has been doing a great job! I have booked her multiple times. She shows great care and follows any instructions perfectly. She takes great pictures! She is also always quick to reply!”
