About: Over the years, my husband and I have had several pets, from cats to dogs to lizards to chinchillas. At one time we had 9 indoor cats. We have a soft heart and it’s difficult to turn away a stray. Any time we see a stray in our neighborhood, we do what we can to find the owner. Our two dogs have accompanied us on many day hikes and they both love the outdoors as much as we do. One of our dogs, Rosie, was a stray that we took in at 1-year-old. She is now 16. We adopted our other dog, Clayton, at the age of one. He is now 12. We have deeply loved all of our pets and look forward to new pets in the future. The bond between humans and animals can be so special. It is something I cherish. I look forward to caring for your fury family member! I am a Yoga Teacher and teach only a few classes per week. I am also an artist. I have a lot of flexibility in my daytime schedule to care for and/or walk your pet. I am a responsible and reliable person. I make sure to do everything I can to create a safe, trusting, and loving environment while in the presence of your sweet babies. While I am with your pet, my top priority is their safety & happiness.

About: I believe every dog is unique and needs their own special care, which I am more than happy to accommodate for :) My poor pup was hit by a car a few months ago, and he couldn’t even lift his own head up. I helped him eat his liquified food, flipped him on either side to avoid bed sores, fed him his medications, walked him in a sling harness, and practiced physical therapy with him daily. He’s since had a full recovery and is back to his usual, happy self. I am currently a full-time student studying cosmetology, so I am available all day Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. I am also available after 4:00pm on Thursdays. I’ve had my sweet boy for 7 years now, and I love taking him to the dog park, treating him to the dog bakery, and giving him all the cuddles. I will happily do the same for my clients’ pets. Keeping pets in shape and healthy is very important to me to give them the best life they deserve.

About: Hi! I’m zadie. I’m 28 and I’m a stay at home mom to my two children. I have four Pets! Ollie, a German shepherd, pickes and oatmeal our rescue tabby kitties outside, and my bearded dragon plum I’m currently fostering. I grew up with a ton of dogs and cats and have always loved everything about it. I’m a huge animal advocate and used to volunteer at a shelter before I had my children. I’m on an animal sanctuary non profit board here in Jefferson, Ga as well. My goal is to eventually open a rescue once my children are older. I can handle any type of dog or cat and am eager to do this! I had a 120 lb Doberman and pitbull growing up who I believe prepared me for any type of dog. I enjoy spending my free time exploring with our dog and relaxing on our front porch with our cats. I am so excited to meet some sweet pups and kitties and gain some new experience along the way. Looking foward to this and making some new animal friends. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a wide open schedule. I have tons of time in my weeks to provide care for your pets. I will always make sure your fur baby(s) is looked after. Leashed walks, awareness of surroundings, and gaining their trust in me before we do anything. I always want your pet to feel safe with me.

About: I've had dogs all my life, small and big. I'm a recent GCSU graduate. I'm an animal lover and enjoy being around pets. I have plenty of experience taking care of my family dogs, neighbor's pets and my room mate's dog (that really prefers me over the others in my home). I am affectionate and fun loving - dogs just really love me. I am a GCSU grad and enjoy pet sitting while on my job search. My weekends are free and I am flexible with my work schedule during the week. I'm available to walk your dog(s) as often as needed, give them play time and sit with them as long as needed. If special details are needed, I'm happy to accommodate. I have a 1 year old golden retriever that requires extra amount of attention and play time - so I understand that pets need lots of hang out time and long walks.

About: I honestly can't remember a point in my life where I have not had my own pets. I love all kinds of animals and treat any that I sit or walk like my own. I think every boy and girl is the best boy and girl, and love them as such! I own my own business and walk/sit to keep myself busy, active, and entertained. With the summer heat, I keep longer walks to mornings, late afternoons, and early evenings to keep your babies safe, but I'm available for daytime drop-ins and quick walks. Your pet's safety and comfort are my main priority. This means I follow your instructions for your pet in your home, rather than acting as if I know best. I keep as close to your schedule as possible so that your schedule and flow are not majorly interrupted by your trips.

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have always felt a deep love for them. My grandfather had a farm, so dogs, cats, chickens, horses, donkeys, and have loved every moment of being there. Now, my in-laws have a farm with 2 large breed dogs, goats, chickens and a mommy donkey and baby donkey which is my dream to have this as well! First thing in the morning I get my school aged girls breakfast going and the dogs and cats get their breakfast as well. The girls say their goodbyes and give loves before heading to school and the fur babies go in the backyard to play, use the potty and sunbathe or chill in the shade then back inside for some play, cuddles, or just hanging out. I really just go by what each fur baby’s preferences are. I’m a stay-at-home mom and this is my full-time job. So my day-to-day will be with your pet, loving them and caring for them just like or as close as I can to how you love and care for them. We have a large fenced in yard, but the dogs come and go in and out as they please. At bedtime they are in for the night and sleep in their crate or as we get more comfortable and see how they do on their bed or with the person they want to snuggle with that night. ***I do ask that pets are bathed before their arrival, just as a precaution for my pets, home and children. I deeply and sincerely appreciate the understanding in this request.***

About: I am a pet lover at heart! I have owned/fostered 13 dogs and 4 cats in my lifetime so far. I currently own 1 dog named Diesel who regularly attends doggy daycare in Athens. I work hands on with dogs and cats every day and have 3 years of experience in feeding, medicating, and hands on dog-to-dog socializing. I have a huge heart to foster pets and have done so with ages from Puppies to 10 years of age. I have fostered non-hearing and non-seeing pets as well as plenty of experience administering medication to dogs who are diabetic and require insulin. I work a full time job, but when planned in advance I can request off or specific hours if needed. Would need a notice of 2 weeks or more. I am more than happy to host in your home and can either bring Diesel my 70lb dog, or can arrange him to be at my home with my boyfriend as well. Either is completely fine for me! If you are seeking for me to host in my home: I reside in a 24 foot camper as my current tiny home, so most cases I cannot hold other pets with me unless special cases occur where size, needs, temperament, and such are approved to successfully accommodate them. I would prefer to meet them prior and have a relationship with your pups to be sure it would be a good fit for both parties.
