Pet loving sitter or walker!!
Pet care experience
Hi I’m Grace, former vet clinic volunteer and pet-sitting business owner. While at undergrad at UGA I spent my time outside of class walking dogs, house-sitting, and even taking care of bunnies. I graduated in May and with my graduation I paused my pet-sitting business to pursue a job in my major. I have now gone down to part time, so my schedule has freed up and I can get back to playing with pups and petting cats! Growing up I’ve had shih tzus, labs, and bull mastiffs, so I can care for big or small dogs. I just raised my own golden doodle from puppyhood so I am familiar with puppy care as well. I know the ins and outs of caring for an animal as well as the wants and needs of the pet owner for their dog. I’ve been to many training classes for my dogs, so I can also reinforce training that you’ve taught the dog while I am around them. Every dog (or cat) is special and has different needs, and I can accommodate to any of those! I can’t wait to meet your dog!
Reviews
Super communicative!! Thanks, Gracie
Our cat Miley was very well taken care of, and Gracie went above and beyond to bring in packages and clean up where Miley got sick. Would highly recommend!
Gracie communicated very well and took pictures throughout the walk with my dogs. Will use her again!
Max had a wonderful stay with Gracie! We were in town for a wedding and needed a safe , friendly place for Max to stay. I think he felt right at home with Gracie and her dogs.

Safety, trust & environment
I am attentive to instructions and understand that dogs have routines that they are used to, and I stick to those as close as possible so that they can be comfortable while their parents are away.

Information Gracie H. would like to know about your pet
Some of the most important information I need is - feeding schedule and amount, any quirks that your dog may have, hiding places they may have, and favorite toys/games to play.
A typical day
When I pet sit I make sure that the dog is as comfortable as they can possibly be while their owners are away. this means lots of play time , los of petting and giving them treats and positive reinforcement. I usually go with the flow of what the dog wants to do to make sure they're comfy. If they indicate they want to play, we play, if they indicate they want to relax, we will sit down together and peacefully go about our business.
