1. Rebecca S.


“Bubba loves Rebeca she is great at communicating and is very flexible making it easier for me! Definitely one of my favorite walkers ever!”


2. Regina B.
“I can say without hesitation that Regina truly loves all living creatures. I've known her for almost a decade, and she has a kind heart and a gentle soul towards all animals. She will love your fur babies as she does her own furry children. I am VERY particular about who I would trust with my own fur children, and for certain, Regina would be one of the few that I would hire to look in on my beloved babies. I would (and will) choose her in a heartbeat if I am ever in need. For me to say that speaks volumes about how I feel about her love and devotion to all living creatures. Don't even think twice about this decision if you're looking for a pet sitter, she is it. Her husband is a veterinarian, and I feel it is also important to state that she is a complete vegetarian (vegan) because of her genuine heartfelt adoration and respect for all living things. Book her now. You won't regret it. She's a jewel. ”

As a dedicated and experienced pet caretaker, I bring a wealth of knowledge and genuine passion to ensure the well-being of your cherished furry family members. As a dog owner myself, having recently experienced the loss of my own beloved companions, I understand the deep bond and special care that each pet deserves. My commitment to providing exceptional care is underscored by a lifetime of experience and the ownership of three fabulous felines. My expertise extends to senior dog and cat care, reflecting a comprehensive understanding of the unique needs of aging pets. Unveiling my pet care expertise: Feline Fandango: Having been a Cat Momma since the age of 6, I am fluent in the nuanced language of "cat" and well-versed in their distinctive needs. Whether it's lively playtime, gentle grooming sessions, or providing a cozy lap to curl up on, I comprehend the intricacies that make cats purr with contentment. Doggo Delight: As a recent dog owner, I understand the profound impact of canine companionship. Although my own dogs have passed away, the memory of their joy and companionship remains fresh. My understanding of a dog's wagging tail, from invigorating walks to indulgent belly rubs, reflects a commitment to ensuring your canine companion experiences joy and comfort. Pet Parent Communication: Recognizing the significance of keeping you informed about your pet's well-being, I provide regular updates, adorable pictures, and delightful anecdotes from our time together.

15. Anastasia R.
“Anastasia (Rhys) has been watching my pets for years. Whenever I have to work or need to go out for the day, I know I can shoot Rhys a text and they’ll be there to make sure my dogs are fed, watered, and go outside for plenty of playtime.”


16. Tiffany W.
“I have worked at a spay/neuter clinic with Tiffany. She is/was a wonderful Vet assistant and was in charge of all the drugs and headed up the support team for the vets in surgery. She also was my pet sitter for many years. Even though she lived one hour from me she helped me out. I had at the time about 20 cats, 4 dogs, a parrot and some chickens. I felt so safe leaving them in her care. She even stayed overnight so my dogs had company and if needed to go out she was there. I can't say enough of her professionalism and dedication to my pets. When me and my husband came home she had left the place spotless. And the comfort it gave me that she could handle any emergency as a trained vet assistant was priceless to me. I recommend her highly to anyone who wants a professional pet sitter and someone who loves animals.”


17. Tiffany S.
“I have let Tiffany watch my fur babies, and she is one of the best, she treats them like babies, she treats them like her own.”


18. Delaney S.

“Gwen had two amazing walks with Delaney - absolutely recommend!”

“Taylor is kind, communicative, and responsible. I never have to worry about my dog when she’s sitting for me. Sadie is always well taken care of and tuckered out by the time she comes home.”


20. Alexandra S.
About: I’m currently a kennel worker at the animal clinic of Athens, and going to school to be a veterinary assistant. I have two dogs, two cats, and a ferret of my own so there’s really not much that can phase me, and I love meeting new animals!! Since I’m working part time and pretty close to home my schedule is flexible. I also have hour long lunch breaks in which I go home for. I have a fenced in yard and doggy door! So if you’re worried about your pup getting out or not being able to have access to outside you can rest assured your pup will be alright.
