“Emilie is honestly the best! She’s incredibly easy to work with, is super friendly, and does a great job with my kitty! She always leaves detailed rover reports with lots of pictures and I know my baby is getting the best care and all the love when Emilie watches him!”


“Scar was amazing and even when there was an incident they were so patient and kind. I can’t thank them enough for their support and all the loving and extra pets my fur baby received while I was away! Sapphire and I thank you!! 🩷”


“Kayla always takes such good care of our kitty! I really appreciate her detailed summary of the visits, cute pics, and she is very willing to accommodate any requests. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my family, watching neighborhood friends’ dogs, and now have a dog of my own (Maggie). Maggie gets along with almost every dog and generally leaves those that stay with us alone. I’m happy to do meet and greets to make sure Maggie and your dog are comfortable! I've been watching my parents' large golden doodle regularly and have a yard to accommodate more. I work from home so I am easily able to accommodate walking and feeding schedules. I am happy to sleep at a clients’ house as long as my dog can join. I have a fenced in yard that is easy to take dogs out for quick breaks but my neighborhood is also very walkable for dogs.

“Andre was the perfect sitter for our two cats! He did everything we asked, was incredibly attentive and caring, proactively offered to do additional things to make our cats happier, and left very detailed updates and plenty of pictures for every visit. He left no question that we can count on him for future drop-ins.”


About: -Senior care -Topical and oral medications -Hyperactive pets -Fearful pets Along with my family pets (cats, dogs, rabbits, birds), I have had three years of experience in the pet care industry. I started as a volunteer at Tabby's Place, a shelter for disabled and sick cats in Ringoes, NJ. I worked there for two years before starting my college career at Agnes Scott. Over the summers, I work as a Kennel Assistant at a veterinary clinic in Langhorne, PA. There, I work with anxious cats and dogs, and pets who needed daily topical and oral medications. During my time caring for animals at home and in the industry, I have also gained experience caring for both senior and hyperactive pets. I am currently a full-time student and a member of Agnes Scott's NCAA Volleyball team. Any weekend travel games are blacked out on my schedule. I live with my cat full time at school. I pride myself on ensuring my pets' safety and comfort by seeing the world from their eyes. My cat has ample space to run and play, both independently and interactively. Due to limited space in dorms, I ensure her spaces are both hygienic and interesting for her. I ensure that your pets will feel pampered and loved in my care. They are your family--nothing less will do!

About: I always had dogs growing up and I would often puppy sit for friends. I recently lost my twelve year old pitty, Bella. I would love an opportunity to hang with furry friends. I work full-time, typical Monday - Friday from 9-5 and some Saturdays in Decatur. I am available in the evenings and some overnights during the weekend. Making sure they have their basic needs with food, water, and bathroom breaks. Lots of playtime, walks, or cuddles depending on the needs of your fur baby.

“Russel was great! He took wonderful care of my 4 pets and gave me thorough reports/updates as well as pictures of each pet. My kids seemed to get along with him, even the skittish cat came up to him on her own! He asked questions when he didn’t know the answer and made me feel secure in trusting him with my family and my home. Thanks Russel!!”


About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my whole life! I love taking care of my friend’s and family’s fur babies, and I am excited to care for your furry family members too! As a fellow pet owner, I know how stressful finding a sitter can be and I want to help ease your mind to help you know that your pets are safe and cared for while you’re away. I only work 3 days a week and hoping to help other pet owners anyway I can on my days off! I am available any time on my days off. I will ensure your pets are loved on with my undivided attention whenever I’m with them. I know how to protect them on walks from other pets if needed and know proper crate care. I would love to go above and beyond for your pets to ensure your pet receives the best care!


“Stacy did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She did everything we asked and was very pleasant to communicate with. I would happily trust her to take care of our pets again next time we are away.”


“Amanda did the most amazing job with our 2 cats! Due to the super cold weather over Christmas weekend, our water & heat went out, but she made sure our boys were warm & immediately notified us. She took great care of our boys and made sure they were both safe & happy while we were away. We’re so grateful and will definitely use her again!”


About: Hi, my name is Brittany and I love animals. (I'm sure everyone here says that.) I have been volunteering at various shelters for years, as well as fostering dogs and house sitting for dogs, cats, and chickens. I am trustworthy (I have client references if needed) and I take great care to make sure every pet feels love like they should. :) I do request dogs to be house trained. I can offer a nice walk on sidewalks or the trail, or just throwing a ball inside, if your pet is anything like mine was. (Miniature Rat Terrier, we played a lot of fetch in this condo.) I work from home so there will be a lot of one-on-one time. I’m that someone to water your plants and get your mail while you are away! Prices are based on a 24 hour cycle. (Example: If you drop off pup(s) at 10 am, your pick-up time is 10 am.) If you need to extend your time, 1-3 hours is $5, 3-6 hours $10, 6-9 hours, $15, 9+ hours, full day's rate. This is per dog. My standard routine is working from my laptop, occasional grocery trips, lots of watching Hulu and couch cuddle time. I try to take a daily walk around .5 miles but can adjust to shorter or longer walks based on dog needs. I prefer staying at client’s home, I’ve found most pups feel more comfortable that way. A meet and greet is preferred, just a walk through of how you keep your house, how your pup/s like to be cared for, etc. I’m a homebody, pets will be left alone for no longer than a trip to Kroger.
