“As always, Caylei took excellent care of my disabled boy. This time, she has a bit of an emergency when he was unable to be expressed for urine. She took him with her to work where he had his bladder drained, saving him. Thank you, Caylei, for always being so competent and capable, especially with my special needs guy.”
“Diana did such a wonderful job with our pup. I swear he’s learned some new things. He doesn’t nip as much. He’s waiting before eating. Trainer and sitter in one. Thanks for taking us last minute. Really appreciate you and your family for caring for our baby.”
“Stacy was awesome. I am a first time dog owner and left my 5-month old puppy with her for 5 days and she answered all my questions and put all my fears to rest. She kept me updated daily with pictures and commentary about how my puppy was doing. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Will definitely be calling her again.”
“Great experience overall. They were very accommodating to my schedule, which I really appreciated. Responded to my messages quickly and they made the whole process convenient and stress-free. Highly recommend!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Jill watch my dog over the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the moment I met her, it was clear that Jill has a genuine love for animals and a professional approach to pet sitting. Throughout the weekend, Jill kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was evident that my dog was not only well-cared for but also having a great time. Jill followed all my instructions meticulously, from feeding schedules to exercise routines, and even took the extra step to spend quality time playing and cuddling with my pup. When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and well-groomed, a testament to the excellent care Jill provided. Her reliability, attention to detail, and warm demeanor truly make her stand out as a dog sitter. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring individual to look after their furry friends. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future!”
About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds for my entire life. I have always loved animals and grew up learning how to care for them. I also have rescue volunteer and foster experience so I have cared for all kinds of dogs! I’m currently working remote, so I am home all day to care for and spend time with your pets. I am also available for drop-ins and walks at any time! I am happy to do whatever you need to ensure that your pet is well cared for and entertained! I take my own dogs on walks every week!
“We have two elderly pugs with special needs and were nervous to leave them for a weekend. Cassandra calmed our nerves and had us have a meet and greet ahead of time. Throughout the weekend stay she sent us pictures and updates to let us know how they were doing. Our dogs also need to take medication everyday (including insulin injections) and Cassandra was able to administer. We were very happy with Cassandra and would definitely recommend.”
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
“Riley answered very quickly to my request, and had great communication from the beginning. She welcomed my dog and I, and sent video updates throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend her ! Thank you again Riley!”
“Beverly was AMAZING!! I have a puppy, and had to board him for a week and was very anxious to do so. She was so reassuring, spent so much time with him, and her kids and him got along amazing!! I will always rebook with her, as she took incredible care of my baby while I was away, and eased my nerves :) 100/10!”
“Berkeley was immediately excited when he arrived to stay with Annette, despite being such an anxious dog. There were a few other dogs for him to play with and a great fenced in yard to run around in. They even took a trip to the dog park. I’m thankful I found Annette to provide such a safe and loving place for him to stay while we were away!”
“Becky was great with my dog Chevie! I really appreciated the pictures and updates while she was there. Chevie was very relaxed and content when we got home, will definitely use Becky’s services again!”
About: I've been a dog owner my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a part of who I am. Every dog has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. One of the most meaningful parts of my experience has been caring for senior dogs and providing compassionate end-of-life care. I understand how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are during every stage of a dog's life. Whether your pet needs medication, a slower-paced walk, extra cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company, I'm happy to provide the care they deserve. I value responsibility, communication, and attention to detail, and I'll care for your pet with the same dedication I bring to every commitment. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels happy, safe, and cared for. I truly love spending time with animals and am excited for the opportunity to give back to my community by helping local families care for their beloved pets. As a Ph.D. student, I have a flexible schedule and set my own working hours. Most of my research and academic work can be completed remotely, which allows me to spend a significant amount of time at home. I typically go into the lab for only a few hours each day and live very close to my workplace, so I often come home during lunch as well. This flexibility means your dog won't be left alone for long periods of time. I'll have plenty of opportunities throughout the day to provide companionship, playtime, and attention. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, games of fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I can also provide regular potty breaks, outdoor exercise, and enrichment activities to keep your dog happy and engaged. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine as much as possible while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I do everything I can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and any special needs, so they can maintain a sense of familiarity while you're away. Throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection. My home has a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and enjoy frequent potty breaks. I also live near a park, making it easy to provide longer walks, fresh air, and extra exercise for dogs who enjoy getting out and exploring. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized cats who are comfortable around dogs. They are calm, respectful of other animals, and have experience living alongside canine visitors. If your dog enjoys feline company, they'll have friendly companions, and if they prefer their own space, I'm happy to provide separate areas so everyone feels safe and comfortable. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'll provide regular updates and photos while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, loved, and receiving the best possible care.
“Jonathan is a great communicator. Our pup was very happy here for a longer stay. He loved having friends and seemed to enjoy his time. Came home just as happy as he left. Already planning to ask Jonathan to keep our dog again soon.”

“Rachel was a wonderful sitter and would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. She was reliable and eased the stress of leaving my senior cat so I could relax and enjoy time with my new grandson.”
“Samantha was so amazing! She followed instructions and gave me multiple updates throughout the visits! Provided great pictures. Our cat loved her and made the daily visits great. Thank you so much!”
“Savanna is a wonderful house sitter! She took great care of my two picky cats that demanded lots of attention and effort to make them eat while I was on a business trip. My senior cat has to be fed wet food several times a day and has digestive issues, so I booked her for house sitting instead of drop-in visits. I left long instruction notes for when & how to feed him, and she kept every little detail I asked for and was always on time for the feeding schedule. She also sent me lots of pics and frequent updates. My apt was very clean and intact when I got back from the trip. Definitely recommend Savannah for any pet sitting & house sitting needs!”

About: Registered Veterinary Technician who works emergency medicine on the weekends looking for extra work through the week. I can’t stay at your house overnight, but your pet can come to mine. I can also do drop ins pretty regularly. I graduated college with a degree in Veterinary technology and passed my state boards. I work at an emergency clinic in Atlanta on the weekends and right now I’m free through the week. I can try my best to work out whatever you need help with. I’m skilled at giving medications and anything basic your pet may need in home, as well as lifesaving care due to any emergency. I can keep non child friendly cats in a different area, but dogs must be child friendly. I do have cats & ferrets, but they can be kept separately if your animals are not cat & small rodent friendly. I have 2 dogs as well. All of my animals are pet friendly with everything as many animals have come through my care fostering. I'm skilled in exotic pet care as well if necessary. I currently only work weekend overnights in the ER. So, I am home all week caring for my fur babies. As well as yours hopefully! I strive to care for anyone's else's pets exactly as I would my own. When they are with me, they are my babies too. I bring my ER compassion with me when I pet sit, in the ER the pets are without their owners & they are scared on top of being hurt. While my pet sits may not be hurt, I'm aware they could be nervous & unfamiliar. I try to treat them with the upmost compassion & kindness.
About: I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes EDD K9 handling, obedience training, working bird hunting dogs, and caring for high-energy working breeds that require structure and exercise. I live on 14.9 acres in Madison County, Georgia, providing dogs with a safe, spacious environment to play, explore, and relax. I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of maintaining routines that help dogs feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs active playtime, supervised socialization, or a calm place to stay, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side job. My daily routine is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and supervision throughout the day. Living on 14.9 acres in Madison County, I provide a safe, spacious environment where dogs can enjoy structured outdoor time and plenty of individual attention. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxed atmosphere, I tailor their care to their specific needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are being cared for by someone whose primary focus is their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dogs enjoy a structured daily schedule that includes supervised outdoor exercise, potty breaks, feeding according to their owner’s instructions, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one interaction. Each dog has access to a clean, secure run for rest and quiet time, while also receiving multiple opportunities throughout the day for exercise and socialization when appropriate. Because we accept only a limited number of dogs, we can closely monitor behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being. This personalized approach helps reduce stress, creates a calmer environment, and allows us to provide the level of care and attention that dogs deserve while their families are away. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home-away-from-home experience where every dog is treated like a valued guest rather than just another boarding reservation.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. My family has always accepted our pets as part of our own family. All this to say, I definitely have experience in helping a pet live a happy life by caring for their needs such as walking, feeding, bathing, clean after, and spending quality time. I currently am a stay-at-home “girlfriend” with a part time job (work 2 days a week), therefore I have plenty time and days available to help with any care I am able to do for your pets! At my home I have two inside cats that my boyfriend and I adopted last year, sisters. Taking care of them is easy, needless to say as we keep them up to date with checkups, have lots of play time and kept well fed. At my dad’s home he has two chihuahuas, and at my mother’s home she has two weenie pups. I visit both homes to spend quality time with the dogs and help with anything they may need. All my pets are well taken care of with regular baths, healthy diets, and quality time!

“As always, Caylei took excellent care of my disabled boy. This time, she has a bit of an emergency when he was unable to be expressed for urine. She took him with her to work where he had his bladder drained, saving him. Thank you, Caylei, for always being so competent and capable, especially with my special needs guy.”
“Diana did such a wonderful job with our pup. I swear he’s learned some new things. He doesn’t nip as much. He’s waiting before eating. Trainer and sitter in one. Thanks for taking us last minute. Really appreciate you and your family for caring for our baby.”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Jill watch my dog over the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the moment I met her, it was clear that Jill has a genuine love for animals and a professional approach to pet sitting. Throughout the weekend, Jill kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was evident that my dog was not only well-cared for but also having a great time. Jill followed all my instructions meticulously, from feeding schedules to exercise routines, and even took the extra step to spend quality time playing and cuddling with my pup. When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and well-groomed, a testament to the excellent care Jill provided. Her reliability, attention to detail, and warm demeanor truly make her stand out as a dog sitter. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring individual to look after their furry friends. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future!”

“We have two elderly pugs with special needs and were nervous to leave them for a weekend. Cassandra calmed our nerves and had us have a meet and greet ahead of time. Throughout the weekend stay she sent us pictures and updates to let us know how they were doing. Our dogs also need to take medication everyday (including insulin injections) and Cassandra was able to administer. We were very happy with Cassandra and would definitely recommend.”
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
“Riley answered very quickly to my request, and had great communication from the beginning. She welcomed my dog and I, and sent video updates throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend her ! Thank you again Riley!”
“Beverly was AMAZING!! I have a puppy, and had to board him for a week and was very anxious to do so. She was so reassuring, spent so much time with him, and her kids and him got along amazing!! I will always rebook with her, as she took incredible care of my baby while I was away, and eased my nerves :) 100/10!”
“Berkeley was immediately excited when he arrived to stay with Annette, despite being such an anxious dog. There were a few other dogs for him to play with and a great fenced in yard to run around in. They even took a trip to the dog park. I’m thankful I found Annette to provide such a safe and loving place for him to stay while we were away!”
“Becky was great with my dog Chevie! I really appreciated the pictures and updates while she was there. Chevie was very relaxed and content when we got home, will definitely use Becky’s services again!”
About: I've been a dog owner my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a part of who I am. Every dog has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. One of the most meaningful parts of my experience has been caring for senior dogs and providing compassionate end-of-life care. I understand how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are during every stage of a dog's life. Whether your pet needs medication, a slower-paced walk, extra cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company, I'm happy to provide the care they deserve. I value responsibility, communication, and attention to detail, and I'll care for your pet with the same dedication I bring to every commitment. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels happy, safe, and cared for. I truly love spending time with animals and am excited for the opportunity to give back to my community by helping local families care for their beloved pets. As a Ph.D. student, I have a flexible schedule and set my own working hours. Most of my research and academic work can be completed remotely, which allows me to spend a significant amount of time at home. I typically go into the lab for only a few hours each day and live very close to my workplace, so I often come home during lunch as well. This flexibility means your dog won't be left alone for long periods of time. I'll have plenty of opportunities throughout the day to provide companionship, playtime, and attention. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, games of fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I can also provide regular potty breaks, outdoor exercise, and enrichment activities to keep your dog happy and engaged. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine as much as possible while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I do everything I can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and any special needs, so they can maintain a sense of familiarity while you're away. Throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection. My home has a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and enjoy frequent potty breaks. I also live near a park, making it easy to provide longer walks, fresh air, and extra exercise for dogs who enjoy getting out and exploring. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized cats who are comfortable around dogs. They are calm, respectful of other animals, and have experience living alongside canine visitors. If your dog enjoys feline company, they'll have friendly companions, and if they prefer their own space, I'm happy to provide separate areas so everyone feels safe and comfortable. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I'll provide regular updates and photos while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, loved, and receiving the best possible care.
“Jonathan is a great communicator. Our pup was very happy here for a longer stay. He loved having friends and seemed to enjoy his time. Came home just as happy as he left. Already planning to ask Jonathan to keep our dog again soon.”

The communication was clear and consistent, keeping us updated and respecting any instructions or boundaries we gave. Our dog came home happy and very tired! He was clearly loved and played with throughout his time with Xionella!”
“Rudy absolutely loved staying with Avery at her place! She and her husband are so kind and it's obvious they love dogs and care for them as they would their own. Rudy loved going on walks and cuddling. I highly recommend Avery as a petsitter and I know Rudy would love to stay with her again!”
