“As the others before have said, they are an extraordinary couple offering an extraordinary experience for pups. Exactly the haven and care I always want my dog to have. They are a dream, team.”
“There are no words to express how happy I am with the level of care my Kane received while visiting with Felicia and her family. Kane was treated like a member of her family. Felicia is the absolute best. If you are looking for someone to take special care of your fur baby I highly recommend Felicia.”
“I just have to say James and his wife De are AMAZING! We just moved in to town and we’re looking for a dog sitter due to a long trip that we had planned prior to our move. I am always hesitant leaving my pups with new sitters, but during the meet and greet at James’ house, I was instantly set at ease. He reassured the pups would be well taken care of while we were gone and I have to say he went above and beyond. He sent multiple pictures throughout each day and sent message updates to let me know how they were doing. He even spoiled them with extra treats (asked me first of course) and I know they loved it! If you’re feeling any bit of hesitation leaving your pups with someone new I can’t recommend James enough! Even living about 50 minutes from where they are, I will definitely leave my pups with them again and know they are well taken care of. Thank you so much again James and De!”
“Xionella was an angel. Our original sitter cancelled last minute and she was so quick to help us out. She's the only sitter who offered to meet at a dog park so our fur babies could warm up to her before we dropped them off. She was even kind enough to send us updates, photos, and video chat! I loved that she took them to the dog park, was extremely patient and understanding, and careful when administering our senior pup's meds and safety care. Will be back for future playdates with Groot!”
“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!”
“Diana was wonderful. I appreciated that she accommodated our situation on short notice and made modifications so that my dog was as comfortable as possible. Appreciate her flexibility.”
“Michelle and her family treated my Po and Basil as if they were their own! It was so great knowing my two were safe and sound, especially with her expertise in the vet med field. Will absolutely book again!”
“Love this laid back atmosphere where my very needy & spoiled lab can wonder in and out and all around this beautiful house and yet still b safe and contained. Very relaxed vibe with a very sweet caretaker. My boy has had 2 day visits and a 2 day/night over nighter and always comes back happy and tired. I would highly recommend this sitter.”
“Xiomy took amazing care of my dog. She kept me updated every day with the sweetest photos, and I always felt at ease knowing my pup was happy and loved. Her dog Elma is incredibly gentle and became the perfect playmate — they bonded right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I truly recommend her!”
“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!”
“If we could give 100 stars we would! Our Baby boy Jaxxson is our fur-son and we have been on the search for someone that would give us comfort when we travel in knowing he is in excellent hands and safe. Delmina and her Husband did just that! This is a beautiful family and they treated our baby boy like royalty. We received so many pictures and videos that we almost felt like we were there with him. We can’t say enough great things about how well this stay went. You won’t be disappointed with how she cares for your pet!”
“Kendall & Darbie were fantastic! Communication was excellent and they were super friendly and accommodating! We will book with them again the next time we're in Athens!”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”

“Tricie provided wonderful care for Cooper and Archie! She was very professional, communicative and detailed. Tricie provided daily photos of both Cooper and Archie. Based on those photos there is no doubt A & C enjoyed their playtime with Tricie too! Tricie brought in the took out the trash and brought in the mail, pkgs., etc. She kept the litter box cleaned daily and refreshed it on her last day of care. Tricie was an excellent communicator regarding the status of A & C! She gave us peace of mind that our fur babies were in good hands. We will definitely call upon Tricie again!”
“I have three cats, and one of them still requires special care. Ilana was wonderful, honest, and incredibly caring with all of them. I left them in her care for four days, and she was always willing to help and went above and beyond. I truly recommend her, and if I ever need a pet sitter again, I won’t hesitate to contact her.”
“Christi did a very good job. I also like the fact that she lives in the area. Niko seemed to really like her and my home was immaculate when I came back Niko was very happy to see me, but it was good to know someone was taking good care of him. I will use Christi again.”
About: I am an experienced dog owner and sitter. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including cats and dogs, and have owned multiple dogs since living on my own. Currently, I have one small chiweenie and regular dogsit dogs including Cocker Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, and Great Pyrenees. Shy or nervous rescue pets are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. Pets with medical issues are welcome as I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with a variety of issues who’ve needed everything from shots throughout the day or diaper changes or to receive mobility assistance. I also have experience caring for chickens if you need someone to care for your chicks. I work full-time from 8 AM-5 PM. I have a long lunch, so I can stop by to take care of any needs during the day. Drop off/pickup prior to or after work is preferred, except on the weekends when I’m free. If you really need a specific drop off or pickup time, please let me know early so I can try to accommodate that. I am up early every morning to give pets plenty of time to eat and play before leaving. When I get home, the first thing I do is let pets out to potty and to play. Throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for walks and playtime before bed. . First and foremost, I will strive to match or mimic the care and routine you give your pets at home. With a fenced in yard, your pet will have a safe place to potty and play. There are also many parks nearby to take your pet on walks or provide them with socialization. Pets are able to climb on furniture, sleep on my bed, and have mostly free rein of the house — my home is their home while we’re here. However, I have a pet gate I can put up and experience crating pets (as well as crate training dogs) for any pet who can’t be left free to roam.
“Shelby is awesome! She came through without a hitch when we found ourselves in a bind with our 4 cats as we were planning to go on vacation. She was close by and super sweet and even sent pictures. We would love to have her come take care of all our babies in the future.”

I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, enrichment, and gentle interaction tailored to each cat’s comfort level. My goal is to create a peaceful, consistent experience so cats feel safe and secure while their owners are away!
About: Taking care of cats is easy for me, I swear I was a cat in another life. I find cat behaviors so interesting and funny, plus my dog would rather play with a cat than another dog. Every cat is a kitty to me, no matter the age, they are all babies.
“Michelle is so sweet. We had originally booked her for the second week we needed coverage for our babies since we already had someone booked for the first week. Well the sitter for the first week cancelled last minute and Michelle picked up that week too. My needy girls took to her almost immediately and kept her on their schedule. Thank you Michelle for watching our girls. They can’t wait to see you again!”
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life (walking, giving water, food, and medicine, picking up waste) and have 10+ years of experience with large animals. I am almost always free, which gives me lots of time to spend with your pets! Im heading into my freshman year of college, and don’t have a formal job which leaves my schedule pretty flexible!

I am able to walk any amount of time or distance you need!

About: Hello! My name is Gina and I am very excited to be a part of this community. I have years of experience with dog walking, pet feeding, and boarding pets. I have house & pet sat multiple times throughout the years and I absolutely love it. To be honest, I cannot afford a pet myself at the moment, so in the meantime I hope you'll share yours with me! Also I work from my computer, so my schedule is very flexible. Which means more time to spend with your fur babies. I am very responsible, friendly, and believe open communication is the ticket. I do not smoke, and have a clean record. I have my own vehicle. And most importantly, I can't wait to meet you!

About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I have worked in a full service veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
“Benjamin took great care of our 3-year-old high-energy lab. He’s a natural with dogs and we feel lucky to have found him. Our pup came home tired and happy after a day chasing balls in the dog park and playing with Benjamin’s dog. This was the second time Benjamin cared for our lab, and he enthusiastically jumped in his car when Benjamin picked him up. We highly recommend Benjamin for dog care services.”
“Gingi was quick to respond, and my pup Pi loved his time playing with her and her dog Twink! She sent us lots of photo updates showing how much fun Pi was having which helped me relax while I was out of town.”
About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days. Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training.

Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!
“Michelle and her husband greeted and welcomed Moses to their home so sweetly! This was the first time I had ever left Moses with someone he did not know and they made it easy!! Michelle’s husband even picked Moses up and cradled him as I left. She has been great with Moses and his adjustment to her home and care and has also been very kind to me with updates and pics!! We will return as long as she will let us!!”
About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up caring for a variety of pets and developed a deep love and understanding for them from an early age. I currently work full-time at Oconee Veterinary Hospital and have several years of experience in both veterinary and pet care settings. In addition to my hands-on experience, I’m also a full-time college student studying in the medical field, which has enhanced my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and overall care. I’m highly attentive to animals’ body language and behavior, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care and compassion to your pets as I would my own. Whether you’re away for a few hours or several days, you can rest assured knowing your pets are in caring, capable hands. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets. My schedule includes working at Oconee Veterinary Hospital and attending Athens Technical College. Despite my busy schedule, I am committed to working with you to find a time that fits both our needs—ensuring your pets receive the care, attention, and comfort they deserve. Please note that I am not currently offering pet boarding in my own home due to a recent move. However, I do offer a variety of in-home services at my clients’ residences. I make it a priority to maintain your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away.
“Annette was great! Chevie, who’s normally wary of other dogs, immediately started playing with her dog and settled in well! I appreciated all the outdoor/dog park time Chevie got. She was tired and relaxed when we got home!”

About: After the passing of my senior dog, Fezzik, I felt the need to share my care for pets with others in my community. With experience volunteering at animal shelters and caring for senior animals, I can be the attentive caregiver your furry companion needs! I currently am starting my career in online teaching and content creation, which means I work from home and have a flexible schedule. With frequent walks already built into my schedule, I am a good fit for pets of any activity level! I live in a gated community with ample space for leashed walks and time in the grass for pets who are boarding. I maintain a clean, second-story apartment which includes a balcony and dog bed. I have my own transportation for at-home visits as well.
“Angela is very responsive, sends plenty of updates during your dog's stay, and made our pup feel right at home! Plus she has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things canine. She was even able to accommodate a *very* last minute schedule change with no issues. I would absolutely recommend her for any of your doggy related needs!”
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.

In a client’s home, I stick to their usual routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else they’re used to—so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. I also make sure to keep things clean and send updates with photos. If I’m caring for pets in my apartment, I make sure they have a safe, clean space and get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and what they need so they feel happy and relaxed.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of my own and those belonging to friends and family for years. I have no problem feeding, exercising, playing with, and cleaning up after cats and dogs. I also have experience dispensing medicine and caring for sick cats and dogs. I’m currently working part time, but I should have lots of time off this upcoming month (July/August). I can pet sit on busy days as long as owner is comfortable with me possibly leaving for hours at a time. In my home, I like to keep my cat inside. My back yard is fenced in for our dog. I try my best to keep the house clean and orderly to avoid any potential danger for my pets, and would do the same for yours. For walking, leashes are always a must.
About: I've been taking care of my family pets as far back as I can remember! I have a small dog of my own who I spoil beyond belief. I love cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes and I truly believe they deserve every good thing life could possibly offer them. I've dealt with all the ups and downs of having pets from allergies, injuries, diets, and fleas to cuddles and grooming. I'd love the opportunity to meet your pet and help you give them the attention and care that they deserve! I'll be available all summer outside of the evenings Friday-Sunday due to my part time job. During the fall I'm free every Monday and Wednesday. I'll also be available from morning to noon on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. My own pets have taught me so much about caring for dogs and cats. I understand their body language when they are agitated or hurt and I pay close attention to the things that catch their eyes. Therefore, I can easily keep your pet out of trouble in and out of the house whether that be in your yard, living room, or walks. My priority is always their safety and happiness. I can easily crate dogs, keep them on their leash, and be wary of that suspicious crunch sound in their mouth when they find something they shouldn't have.

About: @ahartpetsitting on insta!! I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. Hermit crabs, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, chickens, you name it! I just love every animal, and I still believe that they can speak, just not when we’re in the room. I work professionally with dogs every single day as a manager of a dog care facility. I’m known for liking the “bad dogs” at work along with special needs and older pets as well (I love powdered sugar faces)! I treat each animal as my own, and I would do the same with yours! I work full time as a manager at a doggy daycare, I would be able to get you a registration forms and take your pup to work with me if you’d like! My job is very flexible so I can also come home at any point and let your pup out instead of bringing them with me. I am also open to not working during the time I care for your pet. Message me and let’s talk! If you don’t have a dog, I am more than happy to talk with you and figure out if I need to come home for breaks or not work! I care for each pet exactly how owners ask me too, just with lots of extra love! I can chill if that’s what your pet likes to do, or I can adventure. I love being outside in nature as well as cozying up on the couch :)

About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life (walking, giving water, food, and medicine, picking up waste) and have 10+ years of experience with large animals. I am almost always free, which gives me lots of time to spend with your pets! Im heading into my freshman year of college, and don’t have a formal job which leaves my schedule pretty flexible!

About: Hi! I’m Emma, an experienced animal lover with 5+ years of trusted pet sitting experience and a background in veterinary medicine and pet care. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets for neighbors and families for years, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to medications and personalized care. I also have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attention, and care they may need. Along with pet sitting, I have over a year of veterinary experience, which means I’m comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering basic care, and making sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I’ve also worked at a pet daycare, giving me hands-on experience managing dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels in both group and one-on-one settings. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own! I have pretty open availability during the weekend and am open to discussing any additional times you made need. I am happy to accommodate longer visits as well. I always prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications, crating, and any other specific care needs.
About: Animals have always had my heart. I truly believe every pet deserves to be spoiled with love, kindness, and the best care possible. I have an elderly dog of my own and have raised several puppies, so I understand the extra patience and care that both senior dogs and little ones need. I'll treat your furry family member like they're my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable from the moment we meet. Also, I am a runner. I love to run and if any of your dogs need extra exercise I would love to get one of my runs done with your dog! I am a college student looking for work that I love. Caring for pets doesn’t even feel like working. I will fit in as much as I can as my schedule allows! For sitting or drop-ins, I like to ask as many questions as possible and maybe meet the pet beforehand so that they feel comfortable.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 22 years and currently work at the Humane Society of Walton County. Dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals—love them all!

I am employed by Humane Society Walton County but my schedule is flexible! I service Monroe, Social Circle, Madison and Covington! Saturdays I'm at HSWC all day so there is unlikely availability on Saturdays. I only accept jobs in clients home, I abide by what the client instructs and respect their privacy and property. I will not accept aggressive dogs. I currently cannot offer boarding in my home until after summer 2026.
About: I have been around animals my whole life and I love them! I have a 4 year old kitty named Bunny and she is everything to me. My best friend has a mini Australian shepherd that is very friendly and I love being around him. I also have watched my brother and sister in law’s dogs for 2 years now. They ranged from having 4-8 dogs at different points and I would love to go stay with them, feed them, and get to play with their fluffy selves! I am working limited hours at this time, so I am available weekdays 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.- 9 p.m., and also weekends any time! I will monitor the animals needs and be there in any way I am needed. I will take them outside as much as directed, feed them, make sure they have water, and love on them!

About: Hello! My name is Gina and I am very excited to be a part of this community. I have years of experience with dog walking, pet feeding, and boarding pets. I have house & pet sat multiple times throughout the years and I absolutely love it. To be honest, I cannot afford a pet myself at the moment, so in the meantime I hope you'll share yours with me! Also I work from my computer, so my schedule is very flexible. Which means more time to spend with your fur babies. I am very responsible, friendly, and believe open communication is the ticket. I do not smoke, and have a clean record. I have my own vehicle. And most importantly, I can't wait to meet you!

I've been pet sitting for families in my neighborhood for around 10 years now and am open to care for your pet with any qualifications you provide. Whether that's going for a walk, having playtime, or simply lounging and giving some pets!

“As the others before have said, they are an extraordinary couple offering an extraordinary experience for pups. Exactly the haven and care I always want my dog to have. They are a dream, team.”
“Xionella was an angel. Our original sitter cancelled last minute and she was so quick to help us out. She's the only sitter who offered to meet at a dog park so our fur babies could warm up to her before we dropped them off. She was even kind enough to send us updates, photos, and video chat! I loved that she took them to the dog park, was extremely patient and understanding, and careful when administering our senior pup's meds and safety care. Will be back for future playdates with Groot!”
“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!”
“Diana was wonderful. I appreciated that she accommodated our situation on short notice and made modifications so that my dog was as comfortable as possible. Appreciate her flexibility.”
“Michelle and her family treated my Po and Basil as if they were their own! It was so great knowing my two were safe and sound, especially with her expertise in the vet med field. Will absolutely book again!”
“Love this laid back atmosphere where my very needy & spoiled lab can wonder in and out and all around this beautiful house and yet still b safe and contained. Very relaxed vibe with a very sweet caretaker. My boy has had 2 day visits and a 2 day/night over nighter and always comes back happy and tired. I would highly recommend this sitter.”
“Xiomy took amazing care of my dog. She kept me updated every day with the sweetest photos, and I always felt at ease knowing my pup was happy and loved. Her dog Elma is incredibly gentle and became the perfect playmate — they bonded right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I truly recommend her!”
“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!”
“If we could give 100 stars we would! Our Baby boy Jaxxson is our fur-son and we have been on the search for someone that would give us comfort when we travel in knowing he is in excellent hands and safe. Delmina and her Husband did just that! This is a beautiful family and they treated our baby boy like royalty. We received so many pictures and videos that we almost felt like we were there with him. We can’t say enough great things about how well this stay went. You won’t be disappointed with how she cares for your pet!”
“Kendall & Darbie were fantastic! Communication was excellent and they were super friendly and accommodating! We will book with them again the next time we're in Athens!”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”
