Dogs Are A Girl's Best Friend

Pet care experience

*I do not charge for cats unless I am sitting for or dropping in on only cats. If your cat is charged on the itinerary, please let me know so I can remove them. Thank you!* I have been a responsible dog guardian personally and professionally for 22 years. My first dog was a chow chow who I loved for seven years, and my second is a dachshund/chihuahua mix who I've been loving for almost eight years. I have volunteered several weekends at the Humane Society of Northwest Georgia and the Humane Society of Jefferson County. I have been pet sitting professionally for nearly eight years. Additionally, I cared for the dogs of the families for who I used to babysit. I enjoy loving, caring for, and being active with all breeds of all sizes. My greatest passion in life is animals, so getting to hang out with them everyday is a dream come true. I can't wait to love your fur baby!

Katy was great with our animals! This is our second time having her watch them while we were on vacation. We are already booking our next vacation.

Katy did everything she said she would do, showed up on time, etc. She regularly sent pictures/updates, and displayed the common sense to let the taps run a bit with all the frigid weather we had. I would definitely hire her again.

I work in retail, so my work schedule varies week to week. However, a typical work day is around six hours. Additionally, I occasionally do drop-ins and walks. I am usually gone between two to three hours when I have drop-ins and walks scheduled.
