About: My goal as your pet’s sitter is to be attentive to and anticipate your fur baby’s needs while their person is away. Growing up, I always loved animals and took care of hamsters, cats, and dogs. I am gentle and loving while allowing the animal to take the lead with contact. I always respect animals’ autonomy and will always strive to make them feel comfortable and safe. I am available to become your regular go-to sitter or a helping hand when you need one on occasion! My schedule is flexible and can accommodate your pet’s care as you need it to! Your furry family members are my top priority as you are away. I will ensure your pet sticks to their routine as you dictate it and feels comfortable despite your absence. Additionally, I will make sure to spend quality time with your pets so they don’t feel too emotionally distressed while their person is away.
“Anna took the best care of my little pup! She was exactly on time, gave lots of updates and sent so many cute pics of him. I will definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking to take care of their pet!”
“Carly was great! She was on time and sent pictures throughout the walk. I would definitely recommend her, as I will be requesting her services again in the future :)”
About: As active Rover sitter since 2023, I want to make your pet feel comfortable and happy in their own home! My job is to care/love for them as I would my own pet. I am open to take care of your pet(s) anytime between 8am -8pm any day of the week. Only reason I would decline is if your location is out of my range or I am fully booked that day. I can’t have your pet come to my home but happy to continue with any rules you have created for your pet in your home.
About: New clients get $20 off first boarding booking! Hi there! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and absolutely adore them. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to dog sitter for friends and family, and I truly love being that trusted person. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I pride myself on being empathetic and attentive—always tuned in to a dog’s body language and needs. Whether it’s recognizing when a pup needs a water break on a hot day, or sensing when they’re asking for something vs. just feeling a little bored, I try to meet them where they are with patience and care. My own dog is truly my baby, so I deeply understand how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone else with your fur family. I want you to know that when your dog is with me, they’ll be treated with the same love, respect, and attention that I give my own. I'm here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work during the week with most free time in the early morning, afternoons & on the weekends. I can pet sit during any day of the week. Below is an outline of my availability Monday-Thursday: 7-9am & 4:30pm-Midnight Friday-Sunday: all hours I live on the beltline for quick access to long walks with the pups. I have a small, 12 year old pup who can keep yours company! If your pup prefers one on one time with a sitter/walker, let me know and I will be sure to keep them separate - both in house and on walks. When caring for your dog in your home, my priority is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while keeping your space just as you left it. I follow your routines closely - whether it's feeding schedules, walk times, or favorite toys and spots they like to nap in - so your pup has consistency and feels secure. I’ll also keep in touch with regular updates, photos, and anything you’d like to know while you’re away, so you feel fully at ease.
“Alex was amazing with Reggie! He is a pretty young and high energy husky so he can be a lot at times, but she made sure he got enough activity in and even offered to run with him! He was very happy and tired after her visits!”
“Tristan was awesome! This was a very last minute booking and Tristan responded in minutes. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our boy. Thank you, Tristan.”
“Cori has been great to work with. I had a big hole in my dog walking schedule and she has proven to be a great fit. My dog has some anxiety/reactivity problems and she has handled them without a problem. I look forward to continuing to work with Cori 😊”
“Tatiana is extremely respectful and communicative with my dog. She is very understanding of his quirks and is willing to adjust her schedule based on those quirks such as if it’s scheduled to rain. I recommend her walking your dog.”
“Grace was really nice 🤗it was Oatmeal’s first time meeting her and he automatically was excited when she came. This was a sign of good energy. I will definitely be using her services again. Thank u so much Grace!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—from growing up with a black lab to raising two cats during college and early adulthood. I’m the first person my sisters call to watch their golden doodle and rescue mutt, and I regularly help train my friend’s goldendoodle in Miami. His sister, a vet, taught me hands-on dog care and training techniques I still use today. My uncle, a dog lover and owner of three Scenthound locations, also trusts me to care for his pup. Whether I’m walking on the Atlanta Beltline or relaxing at home, animals gravitate toward my calm, playful energy. I truly love cats and dogs equally—and I’ve even bird-sat! Your pet will be treated like family. I’m available most days and weekends for pet care, with the exception of Wednesday afternoons and Monday/Thursday mornings before 10 a.m. Pets easily fit into my daily routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions closely, and I give pets the space they need to feel secure. I keep a calm, clean environment, and I always treat your home—and your pet—with respect and care. Trust and consistency are key, and I’m happy to send updates so you always feel connected while you’re away.

Carlos L.
“I've trusted Carlos to care for my dog, Nessa, many times, and I can honestly say he’s one of the most reliable and thoughtful people you could ever leave your pet with. Nessa is a rescue and usually very slow to warm up to people—but she took to him almost immediately. His calm, patient energy really puts animals at ease. He grew up with both cats and dogs and has continued to care for them into adulthood, so he’s incredibly experienced and confident handling different pet personalities and needs. He’s kind, responsible, and truly pays attention to what each animal needs to feel safe and happy. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving caregiver for their pets!”

Would definitely book again!Even though this was a last-minute booking, Collette was able to accommodate us and gave Tessa exactly what she needed. The half-mile walk was perfect for her energy level since she's older, and she loved getting to play with the Gouda afterward. Tessa came home happy and tired, which is exactly what we were hoping for with my busy schedule. Will definitely be reaching out again!
