Pet care experience

Veterinary Assistant and Pet Lover!

Hi there! My name is Sierra & I am 29 years old. I moved to Athens a few years ago from Macon, Ga, and South Florida before that. I packed up my pups and embarked on this new journey with them. Back in Florida, I loved watching other families pups. It made me happy to help someone out by watching their furry loved one while they were away. I understand how hard it is to leave your pets, but I assure you your pet will be incredible well cared for and loved while you are not home! I have been around dogs almost all of my life, and can't think of a better way to spend my time. I work as a veterinary assistant at UGA, and want you to know your pets are safe and healthy with me! I hope you consider me to be your pups and kitty’s new best friend! Why I love dog sitting I got my first pup when I was three years old. My grandfather adopted her and brought her right home to surprise me. My three year old little mind thought "Frizby" would be her name, because I thought she could jump as high as one could throw a Frizby. Silly, yes, but we all loved her name and the time that she spent with us. When I turned 12 I was gifted my second dog for my birthday, who I named Kingston. Flash forward a few years and I have a house full of them! I currently have 3 dogs with one on the way. Needless to say I am obsessed. My experience administering medication I am very comfortable administering medications. I have wanted to be a veterinarian my whole life, and soon aspire to work in a vet office. I have spent a great deal of time learning how care for pets on a medical level. Should your pet need anything special, I will gladly and confidently be able to do it!

Sierra is incredible. I’ve been so lucky to have her the past 3 years. My cat (who is a very picky girl and usually a b***h to new people) really took a liking to her. Before I hired Sierra, I’d come home and she would yell at me. She’d shed a ton because she didn’t let anyone pet her. I come home and she is happy, she knows she is cared for when I’m out of town. No shedding because she gets all the cuddles and pets she needs. My cat feels good with Sierra.

Sierra got along beautifully with Pepper and showed her lots of love and care while I was away! I got lots of pictures of treats and brush sessions and playtime. It was so lovely to know my kitty was comfortable and looked-after while I was out of town.

Before sitting a pup I would want to know what it is that makes them happy so I can accommodate to the best of my ability. I want to know your pet's favorite toy, where they like to sleep, if they like to run or swim, and how they like to play. My job is to provide the best care as possible and I am extremely dedicated to doing so!
