Loving Care for Your Pets

Hi, I’m Dorothy! I’m a lifelong animal lover and pet parent to a friendly maltipoo and a curious cat. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in the Cumming area. Whether your pup needs a midday stroll or your cat needs company while you’re away, I’ll provide care that feels like family. I know every pet is unique—some need exercise, some just want love, and others prefer their space. I’m here to adapt to their needs and ensure they feel safe, seen, and happy in your absence. With over a decade of pet care experience, I know how to give your pet exceptional service and lots of love! I believe in honest communication, routine updates, and lots of pet photos while you’re away! Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet so your pets can get to know me.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in their home, my goal is to maintain their normal routine and make them feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding and medication schedules to walk times, play preferences, and where they like to sleep or relax. I treat each pet like my own, offering plenty of attention, affection, and playtime based on their personality. I also keep the home clean and secure, making sure doors are locked, lights are turned on/off as needed, and messes are cleaned up right away. Communication is key, so I always provide updates and photos to help you feel connected while you're away. Whether it’s a quick check-in or overnight stay, I want both you and your pets to feel fully cared for and at ease.

Dorothy always takes the best care of my two dogs! And she always sends me the best pictures of my boys while I’m out of town letting me know they’re doing great! She’s the best!
