“If you love your pets and want someone to love them when you’re away, Ashley is your girl. My cat has some health problems and Ashley combined competence with compassion and gave me peace of mind I did not expect to have when I was on vacation. She was extremely accommodating of a difficult request I had, and I simply cannot say enough good things about her! She truly went above and beyond and cared for my cat like her own. I will definitely be trusting her with my pets in the future.”


About: Hi, my name is Cat. I've been a lifelong Dog Mom and animal lover. I love how pets all have their own unique personalities. I know firsthand how much joy that they bring to our lives. I definitely consider mine to be part of the family. I have a Shiba Inu named Amaya who's 13. I'm comfortable with any breed/ages of dogs. I am competent in Puppy and Senior care. I can administer meds and reinforce training. I love taking long walks and engaging in play. I make organic dog treats for my pup and she loves them. I'll bring the treats. I'm looking to do this full-time. If you do something you love you'll never work a day in your life. I know as a working Mom how hard it is to find quality care for our dogs. I'm available M-F for all services and I'm available on the weekends to do at home care. So relax, book that vacation. I've got you. I was a Pet Sitter for my neighbors for over 10 years when they went out of town for events. I know this can be stressful for animals. I'll check on your pups, give fresh water and food per your instructions, clean up any accidents and give them some love and quality play time.


About: Hi everyone! I've raised and cared for many types of animals my whole life! Growing up i'd rehab and release squirrels when needed (in CA), and have had quail, chickens, snakes, mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits, lizards, parakeets, finches, an owl, saltwater and freshwater fish, dogs, cats, volunteered cleaning horse stables, and grew up in the woods bonding with animals like deer and chipmunks like a little Pocahontas. I'm willing to learn anything needed to care for any kind of animal and won't back down from a challenge! I am available morning, lunch, and evening as well as most weekends. I'm easy to work with and flexible as long as my own animals and kids are taken care of first! I follow instructions and will always respect your wishes when it comes to care for your animal. Their safety comes first and i'll never jeopardize that! When caring for an animal, I understand they can make a mess and i'm happy to clean up. You wouldn't have to worry about coming home to your pets messes if it happens!

About: Hi! My name is Ella. I currently graduated from UNG with a bachelors and I am a full time realtor. I have been dog sitting/walking/caring for 10+ years now. It all started with our neighbors, and then trickled down to friends. Since I thoroughly enjoy spending time with dogs, I thought it would only be appropriate to gain more friends/neighbors to help. My schedule is flexible for the most part, and I don’t mind making the drive since my real estate clients are in all areas! I wouldn’t even mind carrying your pups with me for work. Especially since COVID, I stay at home and work from home majority of the time if I’m not out showing or have appointments or errands set up! I’m excited to not only meet new friends, but to also meet your furry friends.

“Lynde was very prompt in responses and helped us with last minute needs. She took great care of our dog and sent pictures with each visit. She gave detailed descriptions of their visits and how he was doing while we were away. Thank you!”


About: I've been taking care of cats in my family my whole life, along with helping my neighbor's with their dog off and on again. Today, I've got a kitten and a tripod so I'm well acquainted with all types of cats. I'm currently working minimal shifts during the week in the mornings, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, including weekends. I can go anywhere on base or in the local area and take care of your pets exactly as requested, just leave a list or schedule.

About: I am a veterinary assistant and have been for 5years. I have a degree in animal science pre-vet. I have worked with all types of animals from ferrets to birds. I am very comfortable with all types of dogs and cats. I have no problems administering medications. I know that every animal’s personality is different and a little patience and TLC goes a long way. I treat your animals how I would want my pups to be treated when I’m not around. I have two Australian shepherds who both love making new friends (people and dogs) I have a big fenced in backyard that you fur baby will be able to run around freely in. We allow our fur guests to lounge on the couches and make our home their home. I send picture and text updates on how your baby is doing so you know they are being loved and cared for. I do prefer a meet and greet before booking a stay. I want to make sure both parties are comfortable and happy. I do have a 2year old who loves dogs but understands giving them space.

“I am so happy to have found Celeste! We are not in the center of town, and I am pleased to have found someone who lives nearby. Celeste took care of our cats over Christmas, and she was punctual, conscientious, and very polite.”


“Rover is the best decision I have made in a very long time. Brick loves Erika as do I. Erika is so kind and loving towards Brick. My heart melts everyday I get report cards from her. She is now a part of this small family. 🥰🙏”


“Savannah was amazing with our fur baby! From the moment I messaged her, I knew she would be the perfect person to drop in on our Aussie puppy. Her response time to messages were very fast and all communication was clear and comfotable. Savannah is very accommodating to any extra needs your pet may have. She brought her son when I mentioned wanting our dog to socialize more with children and I couldn’t be more grateful for that experience. Savannah gave me updates before, during and after her visit. The pictures she sent of playtime were precious. If you’re looking for someone to look after your fur baby, I highly recommend Savannah!”


About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs since age 5 and have been caring for other’s pets for the last 6 years! I have experience with many breeds and sizes! I am a full time ACOM student! In between studies, I’d love to get outside and get some exercise & get your pets some steps too!! I am a DOG LOVER! I am super passionate about our canine friends & have lots of love and attention to give to your fur babies when I’m with them!

About: Hi! I’m Dusty — full-time dog lover, part-time treat dispenser, and your pup’s next favorite human. I share my home (and heart) with two Australian Cattle Dogs: Leia the bossy big sister and Griff the chaotic little brother. They keep me on my toes and have trained me quite well in the art of fetch, belly rubs, and spotting squirrels from 300 yards. Whether your dog needs a cozy place to stay, a midday stroll, or just someone who understands that “zoomies” are a way of life — I’ve got you covered. I’m experienced, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re part of my pack (yes, baby talk included). Let’s make some tails wag! Growing up, I fostered senior dogs, walked pups for elderly neighbors, and even cared for a retired military K9 until he was reunited with his handler — so your dog is in good hands, and likely good company too. I’m currently working full-time 40 hours during the week. I have time after 6 PM during the week and all day during the weekend. Preferably early mornings. I want to make sure every animal I care for is comfortable And get to know their personality and what they enjoy so it can be an enriching experience for them and not stressful.

About: When people say dogs are humans best friends I completely agree. I love dogs any size. I have had dogs my whole life and currently have a 3 years old GSD who is light of my life. I am very familiar with different kinds of dogs from young pups to senior dogs. I am available to walk, play, feed and keep your four legged best friend entertained while you are busy. Available everyday. Either my husband or I are at home everyday. We have a small backyard that your pup can enjoy. We would have to do a meet and greet with our pup who loves to play and still thinks he is a puppy. We want to make sure we can go above and beyond for your furry friend and making sure he/she is comfortable is our top priority We have a small backyard where your pup can enjoy running around and playing. If your pup is older and like to lay around, we have a great back deck for them to sunbathe and relax. We will make sure your pup is not bored. We have baskets of toys that your pup can play with and beds they can snooze on.
