“Tabitha was incredible. She took great care of our place and our pups. She sent regular updates, great pictures, and she talked about my dogs like she really got to know them. 10/10 definitely recommend”
“Sara recently completed a long term stay with our two dogs, and I cannot say enough good things about her professionalism, her dedication to ensuring our dogs received excellent care, and her willingness to go the extra mile when faced with extraordinary circumstances. During her stay, the internet stopped working and despite her best efforts, we just couldn't resolve the issue. I was able to get an appointment with Xfinity and Sara agreed to meet the technician. Sara took charge of the issue, worked with the technician and got the problem resolved. This is just one example of Sara's willing to go above and beyond what she was there to do. She is wonderful and I have no reservations entrusting her to care for our dogs.”
“Kaitlyn was so wonderful to our girls while we were out of town for a week. I’ve always been hesitant to leave them for long periods of time, but I’ll definitely be using Kaitlyn in the future. She was outstanding!”
“We love Sara ! But our kitties love her more ! We even just got a new adult cat and she loved Sara ! We will continue to always choose her thank you Sara you're amazing !”
“Emily was FANTASTIC! The dogs warmed up to her pretty quick and never once did I worry about them while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday. We got picture updates daily and she was very quick to respond to every message. Emily made the whole process 10x less stressful! THANK YOU AGAIN EMILY!”
“Jessica is amazing. She took great care of our pups while we were out of town. She kept us informed, sent pictures, and left our house spotless. We highly recommend her when you need someone to love your pets while you are away.”
“My dog is usually shy and skittish with new people, but she warmed up to Valencia very quickly! Our usual sitter was out on vacation and the sitter we booked instead had a family emergency, so I had to find a sitter last minute on a holiday weekend. Valencia was available to watch my dog on very short notice, and she did great!”
“We were in town for our daughter’s wedding & stay downtown Savannah at one of the historic hotels. The day before the wedding, we realized our 2 Shih Tzu girls were anxious & we needed someone to sit with them during the wedding & reception. Signed up for Rover & Jessica answered our post for help! Jessica came by the day before for a quick meet & greet & knew right away she was the perfect person to watch our girls. She was on time & the girls were excited when she arrived. Jessica took the girls for a stroll in their stroller & even brought them over to the outdoor wedding site. She brought them over to us after the wedding & we were able to take pictures. She then brought them back to the hotel to chill. Jessica has a real love for animals. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies. She put our mind at ease & we knew our girls were loved while we were watching our daughter get married!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I'm experienced in all dog life stages, from puppy to elderly. I've worked with tough walkers and anxious puppies, and even participated in a few Doggy Days Out at the Savannah Humane Society. I have a semi-flexible schedule as I am also working part-time and a college student. My work schedule varies weekly, so my availability will be updated to match! When living in my hometown, I kept my dogs well fed and entertained. I made sure to cater to what they needed, whether it be a walk, outside time, or even just a cuddle on the couch. Dogs have unique personalities, and I am comfortable catering to all types.
About: I have been dog sitting for the past decade, plus owned my own furry friends over the years and I am a huge dog lover! Dog CPR experience and practice caring for both puppies and senior dogs. Currently my job is in their off season for the summer so I'm looking to add some extra cash-flow and will have plenty of time to spend with any furry friends! The only thing I can't do is have pets at my own place, my dog is a rescue and doesn't play well with others but I'd be happy to stay with or visit your pup! I will come to the clients home for appointments, if you request dog walking I can keep to a consistent schedule and if dog sitting I can spend a majority of time home with your dog, just let me know your preferences! :)
About: I’ve taken care of animals for all my life as I have owned animals for years both dogs and cats. I have been trusted by family members and friends to take care of their furry friends! I am currently home for the summer from college. I am available any time of the weekdays and weekends and for as long as needed! If there is a fenced in backyard I will allow them to be off leash(if wanted) but will keep a careful eye on them. With lease they will be kept close and have an eye on them always!
“Darin was fantastic! Showed up when asked, listened carefully to instructions for my three pups, and they all seemed to love him! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a house sitter. Thank you again for all your help!!”
“What a great experience we just had!! McKenzie was amazing the whole way through with our fur baby. She updated us, asked questions, and spent lots of time with her. Will definitely book again!”
