Pet Sitting in Madison

About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days. Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training. Then, I go on a walk every day on my lunch and often again when I log off for the day. I’d love for your fur babe to tag along! I have two fenced in yards full of sun and plenty of shade. I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred. I have fresh well water and a walking trail around our property. I can also crate your dog or offer them a bed if they need. Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats. Having grown up around animals myself, I understand how difficult it can be for pets when their owners are away. My goal is to make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re on vacation, and I’ll give them plenty of attention, affection, and care until you return. I am currently a college kid home for the summer. With that being said I have a completely open schedule right now until I head back in the fall! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they stay on their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on each pet’s individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I always send updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Tricie was great checking in on all my cats! She fed, watered, and played with them. She sent pictures for every drop-in and was responsive if I sent her a message.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m a retired veteran with a flexible schedule, and I provide dependable, attentive care to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like family. I have a very flexible schedule and can often accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and can provide dependable care, exercise, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins when you need them. During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine, ensure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment, and keep you updated with messages and photos. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 6. My childhood and the raising of my own family has included many beloved dogs. I have volunteered in animal shelters for over 30 years, and was a Shelter Humane Educator and Volunteer Coordinator. I love all breeds, and enjoy and and am experienced in feeding, walking, cleaning the yard, and administering medications. I am currently semi-retired and am available for walks and drop-ins most days with the exception of Thursdays, when I keep my grand-daughter. Pets enrich my life. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, safe, and comfortable. I follow a routine or the owner's instructions carefully. I keep the home clean and give pets attention and companionship.

“Christi did a very good job. I also like the fact that she lives in the area. Niko seemed to really like her and my home was immaculate when I came back Niko was very happy to see me, but it was good to know someone was taking good care of him. I will use Christi again.”

About: I am an experienced dog owner and sitter. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including cats and dogs, and have owned multiple dogs since living on my own. Currently, I have one small chiweenie and regular dogsit dogs including Cocker Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, and Great Pyrenees. Shy or nervous rescue pets are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. Pets with medical issues are welcome as I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with a variety of issues who’ve needed everything from shots throughout the day or diaper changes or to receive mobility assistance. I also have experience caring for chickens if you need someone to care for your chicks. I work full-time, but I am done at 4:30PM every weekday except for Friday - on Fridays, I am done at 1 PM. I also have flexibility in my schedule, so I can stop by to take care of any needs during the day or work from home if a pet needs additional care. I am up early every morning to give pets plenty of time to eat and play before leaving. When I get home, the first thing I do is let pets out to potty and to play. Throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for walks and playtime before bed. . First and foremost, I will strive to match or mimic the care and routine you give your pets at home. With a fenced in yard, your pet will have a safe place to potty and play. There are also many parks nearby to take your pet on walks or provide them with socialization. Pets are able to climb on furniture, sleep on my bed, and have mostly free rein of the house — my home is their home while we’re here. However, I have a pet gate I can put up and experience crating pets (as well as crate training dogs) for any pet who can’t be left free to roam.

“Taryn is wonderful-responsible & caring to both our pets and us. She stays in touch, keeping us informed and feeling confident that our home and animals were in the best of care. When we are in need of services, I first reach out to Taryn to see if she is available. I highly recommend!”

Because this is my primary job, I am able to give each booking my full attention and maintain consistent, high-quality care.

“Jessica was nothing short of amazing! We had never used the app, new to the area and nervous about leaving our dog for a long time. Jessica was a Godsend. She was so thorough, sweet, and funny. She made sure our old, anxious dog was so well taken care of, went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable, and was always so on top of things and responsive. We feel so lucky we got her and could not recommend her enough!”

“Shelby is awesome! She came through without a hitch when we found ourselves in a bind with our 4 cats as we were planning to go on vacation. She was close by and super sweet and even sent pictures. We would love to have her come take care of all our babies in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 22 years and currently work at the Humane Society of Walton County. Dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals—love them all! I’m energetic, reliable, and happy to give medications or extra care so your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am employed by Humane Society Walton County but my schedule is flexible! I service Monroe, Social Circle, Madison and Covington! Saturdays I'm at HSWC all day so there is unlikely availability on Saturdays. I only accept jobs in clients home, I abide by what the client instructs and respect their privacy and property. I will not accept aggressive dogs. I currently cannot offer boarding in my home until after summer 2026.

“Ciara is extremely kind and communicative. She gives detailed updates and cinematic photos, and our cats absolutely love her. We will be booking in the future with her!”

About: I have always loved with animals all of my life. I have had dogs and cats, to chickens and horses as well as a duck and a few birds. When a family member would go on vacation, I would be responsible to take care of the animals to make sure they are fed, groomed and taken outside as well as playing with them. I have also taken care of my neighbors animals a handful of times when they would have to leave. I am currently with no job as I am working on starting my own businesses. So I can work around any time needed to help those who need it I have a fenced in yard to let my dogs run around to play and use the bathroom. As for my cats, they roam around the house and have multiple cat towers to play and scratch on. When taking care of other peoples animals, some have fenced in yards to let them run in as others I have to hand walk their dog. I am fine with whatever the client prefers when it comes to caring for their pets.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals of all kinds and my genuine passion for caring for them. I’ve cared for everything from farm animals to small dogs and cats, which has helped me become comfortable with pets of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I have also been volunteering at animal shelters since I was 12 years old, giving me hands-on experience working with animals that may be shy, energetic, anxious, or in need of extra patience and attention. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I am currently home from college and have a very flexible schedule. I am available most weekdays and weekends, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. I do have a few weeks during the summer when my availability is limited, but aside from that, I am generally wide open and able to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. In clients’ homes, I respect the pet’s established routine to help them feel comfortable and reduce anxiety while their owner is away. I keep the home secure, clean up after pets, send regular updates with photos if requested, and communicate promptly about any concerns or changes in behavior. Safety, trust, and the pet’s wellbeing are always my top priorities.

About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time. I'm a USC graduate and a rising second year vet student at UGA. I'm passionate about animal care and providing peace of mind to pet parents. I’m comfortable medicating and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I work part time as a veterinary technician during the summer. I'm available to pet sit any time that I’m not scheduled and most weekends. While I can't offer to keep other pets in my apartment, I am eager to keep pets comfortable in their own home while their parents are away. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.

“Josh was great and very communicative. It’s obvious that they truly care about animals and I will definitely use them again!”

About: I have had pets all my life. I could never see myself without one. I have helped friends and family feed, walk or care for their pets. I am available to help you when you need it. I work from home with a very flexible schedule allowing me to help day or night. I do not keep pets at my home due to me having 4 other dogs. I feel your pet will be more comfortable and relaxed in their own home.

“She’s great but only did she take care of my pups, she put extra eyes on my little escape artists and even helped Mend my fence temporarily until I could return home!”
