About: I have had animals my entire life, so 30+ years of experience. I know that your fur babies are apart of your family. You can count on me to make sure they feel at home. I currently work full-time. My partner has a very flexible schedule so your fur baby will have several opportunities throughout the day for potty breaks. I have a fenced in back yard. I have two extremely friendly medium sized dogs (both are spayed/neutered). I also have 2 playful cats that interact very well with the pups. All of our pets are inside only.
“Moniii was awesome!!! She came, she saw, she conquered and snowy does not like everyone, but she was sitting on her lap.”
About: With over 5 years of experience, I care for pets as if they were my own. From energetic pups to mellow seniors, I tailor my care to fit their unique needs. Walks, belly rubs, playtime, and dependable care—your pet is in gentle, capable hands every time. I have afternoons, evenings, and weekends available. I’ve built my routine around animal care, and I love it! I have fur babies of my own at home, so providing daily love, structure, and attention comes naturally to me. Your pets will be treated like family. I respect your space, follow instructions closely, and always put pets’ well-being first. I’m trustworthy, communicative, and passionate about creating a safe, happy environment for your pet—whether we’re on a walk or I’m caring for them in your home.

About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time. I'm a USC graduate and a rising second year vet student at UGA. I'm passionate about animal care and providing peace of mind to pet parents. I’m comfortable medicating and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I work part time as a veterinary technician during the summer. I'm available to pet sit any time that I’m not scheduled and most weekends. While I can't offer to keep other pets in my apartment, I am eager to keep pets comfortable in their own home while their parents are away. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.
About: I've had pets almost my whole life. I've had bunnies, guinea pigs, fish, cats and dogs. I have given my pets medications when needed and baths when needed as well. I love giving them lots of cuddles and toys and treats. They are my babies!! I have 2 cats right now, one that is 9 and one that is 4. I will be getting an English white lab puppy later this year. I will also be getting a fenced in back yard before the puppy arives. I have taken care of senior dogs and I have taken care of a blind dog as well. I have a part time job right now that can be adjusted on a daily basis. I am able to work around your pets needs. As of right now, I only have 2 cats that are both very friendly and shy. I will be getting a dog later this year and will be getting a fence as well.
About: I have experience working with large breed, small breed, cats, reptiles and farm animals. I have volunteered in shelters and on farms.

I enjoy the company to be honest. I have no pets in my home. A large front and back yard. I have plenty of safe space for your fur baby to play in or outside with a clean & loving environment. I am happy to follow and special care instructions your pet might need.
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, farm, and exotic animals my whole life. Whether they are senior, young, large, or small, they will be taken care of. I’m a part time educator looking to fill my extra hours taking care of your fur babies. Animals and kids have always been my passion so why not do both. I have lots of energy and patience to keep up with your animals care requirement's. Even on my days as an educator, I take long breaks to ensure my animals have enough one on one time.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals since I was 5 years old! I spend most of my free time with my pets and I work at a pet store! I own a Jack Russell Terrier, a Mainecoon, a cockatiel, a hamster, many different types of reptiles, and fish. I am very experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to pets! I am constantly caring for animals of all shapes and sizes, as I own 14 myself! It is part of my daily routine and I enjoy doing it. I am very well versed in dog training, as I have studied it in hopes of becoming either a dog trainer or a groomer. I have easily taught my 7 year old rescue dog basic commands such as sitting, spinning, laying down, and even potty training after he had been an outside dog for years. I am able to correctly follow care instructions as I've been doing it for over a year now working with a pet store!
“I knew our cats were in good hands as soon as Amanda met them during the meet and greet! She has such a calm disposition and they were drawn to her immediately. One cat needs medication, and she fully took on that responsibility, allowing us to travel for a week with the assurance he would be tended to accordingly. I could tell from her photos that they really loved her visits, and it gave us peace of mind while we were away. Plus, they were in such great shape when we got home. It’s like we had never left! I definitely recommend trusting Amanda with your fur babies. She is reliable and consistently communicates, and has a natural connection with animals.”
