“Great experience with Ruth for my pet rabbit, Brownie. She was very patient, responsive, and kept me updated with great communication and adorable photos—Brownie looked so happy and well cared for! The place was super neat and clean. Ruth also helped keep an eye on the room temperature during the heat wave, which gave me extra comfort while traveling. I really appreciated her care and attention to detail. Highly recommend❤️”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life—I grew up in a home with two pups who were truly members of the family. From an early age, I learned the importance of patience, consistency, and unconditional love when it comes to caring for animals. That early bond sparked a lifelong passion for pet care, and since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have hands-on experience with crate training, leash manners, basic obedience, and administering medications. I’ve worked with energetic puppies learning boundaries as well as senior dogs needing extra TLC and mobility support. What really sets me apart is the individual attention I give every pup. I understand that each dog has their own personality and comfort zone, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. Whether your dog needs a jogging partner, a snuggle buddy, or a calm presence when you're away, I’ll be there with open arms (and plenty of belly rubs). I work a flexible hybrid schedule, which means I’m often able to work from home. This allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, care, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to coordinate with you to find the best schedule that ensures your pup gets all the love and companionship they need while you're away! I’ve grown up with multiple dogs in the family, so caring for pups has always been second nature to me. I truly believe every dog deserves to feel loved, safe, and well-cared for—even when their humans are away. That’s why I treat every pet I care for just like I would my own: with lots of affection, consistent routines, and thoughtful attention to their individual needs. Whether it’s making sure they get enough time to walk, run, and play, feeding them on schedule, or providing any special care they may need, I’m committed to keeping your pet happy and healthy. I always aim to create a calm and comfortable environment where your dog feels like they’re part of the family.

“Bruna is exceptional. She consistently responds promptly and demonstrates excellent punctuality. Hunter thoroughly enjoys his time with her”


“Colleen is an excellent sitter & great with animals. She made sure both our cats were well looked after & sent us lots of great pictures. I would highly recommend if you need a pet sitter.”


“Kristine is amazing! She took great care of our cat which made our time away not stressful. You could tell that Kristine loves cats and is super competent. and we knew our cat was In good hands. We would definitely use Kristine again.”


“I am very grateful Emma was available last minute to drop in and take care of Honey. She responded immediately and followed through. She is very reliable and professional.”



About: Being a former mom to a Yorkshire Terrier, I understand the love and attention dogs need. I'm willing to make your dog feel comfortable, safe and entertained in whatever way unique to them. I find personal joy and relaxation in playing, walking and giving calming massages and belly rubs. Rooted in my own concern with safety for my own dog, I pay very close attention to detail when it comes to dogs including closely monitoring what they ingest as well as the environment in which they play. I'm a nurturer by nature, so I look forward to all of the doggie affection coming my way! Cats are welcome- I will love and care for your feline friends just the same! I am willing to care for and/or board more than one pet from the same household upon request. I'm available 7 days a week, late afternoons and evenings Monday through Friday and all day Saturday and Sunday. I look forward to each day knowing that I will be able to connect and provide care with your pet during my afternoons and evenings, Monday through Friday from 3 pm and beyond (all hours Saturday/Sunday), although I'm extremely flexible and willing to travel! I'm available everyday, (including weekends and holidays) all hours in July & August. As a former dog mom, I'm super vigilant and take all safety precautions to keep pets safe including keeping a clean, obstruction-free space and implementing any requests you feel will keep your pet even more safe. I only use products, toys, treats and food approved by the owner. I myself have a sensitive nose, so my space is fragrance free in case your pet has allergies.

“Jessica took great care of my two shy kitties while we were away. We got detailed updates throughout the week and she made sure they got their wet food and some treats. She even managed to lure them out of hiding, which for these two is saying a lot. We hope to have her watch them again in the future.”



About: I've always had a special bond with animals—I absolutely love them! I think it comes from my dad, who grew up on a farm surrounded by animals. My family has always had four dogs at a time, until recent years when three of our beloved pups passed away and crossed the rainbow bridge. Now I have one dog, Niko my Morkie who lives with me and means the world to me. Niko shared a beautiful friendship and weekly playdates with all of our dogs and that brought so much joy to our family. While I’ve never officially run a dog-walking or pet-sitting business, caring for four dogs for most of my life has given me a ton of hands-on experience. Friends and family have always trusted me to care for their pets when they travel because they know I’m trustworthy, dependable, and absolutely adore animals. Over the years, I’ve learned so much through my own dogs and from helping with others’, and I’m confident I can give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I’m currently taking a break from work to spend time with my new baby girl and enjoy daily walks—fresh air and sunshine do wonders! I have a flexible schedule thanks to my husbands help. I care for pets in your home with love, attention, and reliability—keeping your pets comfortable, safe, and happy in their familiar environment while you're away.

About: I have had 3 dogs in my life. Unfortunately I have lost two but I currently have my baby girl Luna who is very well trained and plays well with other friendly dogs. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 children and currently have time to care of and walk your fur babies. I have a car and I am available thru out the day. I have an enclosed backyard and can entertain them by playing fetch. If your dog is comfortable playing with other dogs, my dog loves to play and is very friendly with new dogs.

About: I’ve had dogs around me my whole life, so taking care of them feels totally natural. I genuinely love animals, and they usually seem to love me right back! Whether it’s a playful puppy or a chill senior dog. What sets me apart is the personal connection I build with each pet. I pay close attention to their needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog needs extra cuddles, slow walks, or just someone to sit by their side, I’m here to provide care that’s full of kindness and respect. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in loving hands. I’m fully available during weekends. On weekdays, I have a part-time job and school; however, my schedule is quite flexible. I always have time in the middle of the day, early mornings, and at night. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable. I follow their routine meals, walks, playtime, meds if needed and make sure they’re getting lots of love and attention. I’m super respectful of your space and keep things clean and calm. I’ll also send you updates so you always know your pet is doing great. My goal is to make things easy for you and stress-free for your furry friend!

About: Most importantly, I love dogs!! My dog, Jax, is 7 years old. I have been helping my family take care of him and play with him since he was a puppy, so I am very comfortable working with dogs of all ages. Also, it’s my dream to one day own an Australian Shepherd and a Dachshund, so I am more than comfortable walking, playing with, and taking care of dogs of all sizes (even though Jax is only 20 lbs :)) I just graduated from Emory University, so I am living at home with my parents for the summer. I start a full-time job in August, so I have a lot of free time to spend with dogs! I am very responsible, having lived in my own apartment off campus in college, so I am very trustworthy when it comes to being in others’ homes. I follow directions very well, and will make sure that your dogs are properly taken care of and sufficiently played with :)

Lori did a great job overall! She followed directions perfectly when doing drop ins to feed my two cats. Would def recommend!

Kristine was a great drop in sitter! Celery loved her and played with her each time she came. Kristine made sure to send us many photos and clear, detailed updates. Definitely would book again!

Bella was the perfect sitter for my baby while I was away. I was never worried about her in the slightest and it was such an amazing piece of mind to know that Bella had her in good hands. I can’t recommend her enough!

Ange is the best with my cat! Sometimes Dolly can get moody and anxious and Ange always knows how to handle thoughtfully.

Andrew was awesome. Super attentive to my 3 kitties, sent pictures and videos everyday while I was away, and made sure I was updated on how they were doing! The cats really enjoyed him

We can’t recommend Farrah enough! We’ve had a few cat sitters over the years but I honestly don’t think anyone has topped Farrah. She is so kind, compassionate, and trustworthy. She has a keen attention to detail and is a natural with animals. Our cat, Wrigley, took to her immediately and we felt so at ease knowing he was in good hands while we were away. We loved all the photos and videos she shared. She is incredibly responsible and saw to it that he was not only cared after, but that his environment stayed in top shape and if something looked like it could be better for him, she did it — no questions asked. We came home to a clean house, no litter scattered, fresh water, and a fed & happy baby! Would 100% recommend and we will definitely be having Farrah watch over Wrigley again!

This is the second time we’ve used Sophie and we are so pleased with her. We can be confident that when we travel she is taking care of our babies. She even found ants in one of the food bowls, and cleaned it out and moved it to another location. We trust her with our cat and our property. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophie to another cat parent.

A delightful, energetic, prompt caregiver! We met prior to Elliot’s first visit so protective Lettuce would know who was coming. She loved Elliot! Lettuce gives her 5stars as well as I do.

Bruna is exceptional. She consistently responds promptly and demonstrates excellent punctuality. Hunter thoroughly enjoys his time with her

I was very nervous using this service for the first time. However, Genesys did an excellent job earning the trust of my two girls and taking great care of them.

Sara is awesome! Responsible, communicative, respectful and sweet. Deeply cares about the animals she’s looking after and did a great job with our cat. Thank you!

Love Maddie. She spent quality time with Frigga and Sulley. Definitely trust and love her and will definitely have her take care of our dogs in the future.

Christine was amazing! She took excellent care of my two purr babies and I'm extremely pleased. She was prompt and thorough. It was a load off of my mind while I was away. I will definitely use her services again and recommend her as well. Thank you again!

John is a phenomenal human being that gives nothing but good live energy. He goes above and beyond any expectations I have ever had . It was a last minute arrangement and he agreed to help on the moments notice. He even realized my profile was not updated and helped me navigate the website. 5⭐️’s I highly recommend 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Erin was very understanding and flexible. Our older cat is a little anxious so she tends to hide and Erin did a great job trying to coerce her to come out and eat which I appreciated. In addition, she was willing to work with us when our flight got delayed and we ended up being away for longer than anticipated. However, she was not as diligent as I would have liked with following the cat care instructions she had been provided.
