Top rated Planter cat sitters
“Chayna was wonderful with our senior cat, Owen. He loved the extra cuddles and attention! We really appreciated the updates—receiving pictures and sweet texts about his time with Chayna gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was a gem of a cat sitter! We were gone for a week and when we came back our 4 cats were as happy as can be. She spent so much time loving on them, something our previous sitters never did. We will definitely be rebooking with Lauren for our future trips!”
“When I say that Caylei is amazing, I really mean that. My cat, Tim, has special needs and can be temperamental/ really grumpy, at times. He has been fired from several boarding facilities for his bad attitude. Well, Caylei was willing to take him on and not only that, her care and patience was rewarded with a super happy cat all week! I am truly so thankful to have found her. She sent me updates, photos, and videos while I was gone, which really helped ease my mind. We have a few other trips planned that I wasn't sure we would be able to take if Tim misbehaved for her, too, but everything went significantly better than I ever hoped. Caylei is smart, caring, knowledgeable, and very competent in pet care, even in special circumstances. I can't recommend her enough.”
“Leah was wonderful, thoughtful, and communicative! We will most definitely be booking her to cat-sit for us again next time we go out of town. Our senior cat, Buttons, has horrible separation anxiety, and Leah made sure she got plenty of one-on-one time and sent us thorough updates (plus lots of photos!). <3”
“Cheyenne was excellent with Mr. Poppy! She was able to book and work with my schedule on short notice, and Mr. Poppy was kept happy the entire time. Highly recommend!!”
“My husband and I had used another pet sitter a month or so ago, and that person was unavailable. We reached out to Darlene sort of last minute and she was so wonderful!! She understood our needs so quickly and adapted so well! We have a 8 year old cat who can be grumpy (mostly with the kitten), and she was able to gain his trust in no time. She came twice a day for a week to check in on our fur babies, and brought in packages that arrived as well. Everything was so seamless and allowed us to enjoy our time away. Thank you!”
“Samantha was so amazing! She followed instructions and gave me multiple updates throughout the visits! Provided great pictures. Our cat loved her and made the daily visits great. Thank you so much!”
“Isabelle was fantastic with my Lexi cat and made me feel so much more comfortable leaving her at home. She spent extra time loving on her each day and Lexi began waiting by the door for her visits. She left excellent communication each day, sharing whether or not Lexi finished her food and how her behavior was. 10/10 recommend trusting Isabelle yo care for your fur-family.”
“Kayla was wonderful! She took care of our Bella like she was her own and Bella loved her. We would’ve have kept her but Bella went to doggy daycare. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and took care of them when sick or when family or friends were away. I can continue training if needed. I love to take care of fur babies. I can confidently say when you get home your fur babies will be happy! I am a caregiver for the elderly with dementia my schedule varies but it is typically 12-5pm I can adapt to any set of rules you may have for your pets to help them be more comfortable and feel safe while in my care.
About: With years of experience in varied pet care, I can provide general and specialized care. I've cared for both cats and dogs, including those with medical conditions-such as food sensitivies, diabetes, epilepsy, vision empairment, and mobility issues-making me qualified to care for pets with specialized food, medication, grooming, and enrichment needs. I work part-time in the evenings, with a very predictable schedule, so I'll be able to keep your fur-babies company in the morning or during your 9-5 work hours. As a pet sitter, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for your kitty or pup. I take time to read each animal’s body language carefully, so I can respond appropriately to their needs and respect their boundaries—whether that means giving a shy cat space or offering gentle reassurance to an excitable dog. I maintain consistency with the pet’s established routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any training cues you use with them. This ensures there's no disruption to their daily rhythm, reducing stress and anxiety. I also keep a close eye on each pet’s behavior, noting any changes that might indicate stress, discomfort, illness, or injury, and I will communicate any concerns to you immediately. My goal is to ensure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and safe in their own home while you're away.
About: I have experience with house sitting with multiple pets from a few days to two months. I owned my own dog for 14 years before she passed away this year. I worked at the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia for a year. This past year I have been fostering a puppy for the Guide Dog Foundation so I have experience raising a puppy from three months old. I’ve just moved to Athens after spending many years building a solid client base in Gainesville. Right now I’m looking for pet care to be a main source of income so I have a very open availability. I have around eight years of experience caring for pets (outside of my own). I have been trained but the Humane Society of Northeast Georgia and the Guide Dog Foundation in animal care and have lots of love to give our furry friends.
“I don't need pet sitters often, but i needed a sitter at the last minute for a drop in visit for my 3. I had booked Joyce once before, so i messaged Joyce and she accepted right away which was much appreciated. She told me she always waves hi to my babies when she drives by my house. That tells me how much she loves dogs. When I returned home later that day, I could tell my babies were content and happy. I'm moving out of state later this year, and hope I can find someone as dedicated and caring as Joyce R. I highly recommend her to take care of your furry family members.”
“Claire went above and beyond with her drop in duties! She was very sweet, easy to get ahold of and stay in contact with, and we felt comfortable leaving her the keys to our apartment. Our cat loved her and was able to warm up to her immediately! She took great care of our baby!”
