Our Stella gets so excited to spend the weekend with all of her friends and we have complete peace of mind knowing she is having fun and being loved on like she’s part of Shayla’s family.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, my life has truly revolved around man's best friend. I have raised dogs from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, learning how to read their body language, manage different temperaments, and anticipate their needs. Dogs are not just a job for me—they are a heartbeat for me. Over the last two decades, I have handled everything from administering daily medications and managing strict dietary routines to providing adequate playtime and basic obedience reinforcement. With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, my life has truly revolved around man's best friend. I have raised dogs from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, learning how to read their body language, manage different temperaments, and anticipate their needs. Dogs are not just a job for me—they are a lifelong passion. Over the last two decades, I have handled everything from administering daily medications and managing strict dietary routines to providing structured play and basic obedience reinforcement. I have a massive, fenced yard where your pup can securely run, play fetch, and burn off energy safely throughout the day!! A typical day/schedule would flow similar to this: Mornings: * 7:00 AM: Morning potty break in the huge yard, followed by a fresh breakfast and water. * 8:00 AM: A brisk morning walk or active fetching session to burn off early energy before work starts. * 9:00 AM: As I log onto work, dogs settle into my office. They can snooze on a cozy dog bed right next to my desk or look out the window. Afternoon: Play Breaks and Stretch Time • 12:00 PM: Lunch break! We head out to the big yard for 30 minutes of supervised play, sniffing, and sunshine. Afternoons/Evenings: 3:00 PM: A quick stretch and potty break. If a puppy needs a strict schedule or a senior dog needs frequent relief, this is when they get extra attention. Evening: Wind Down with added Hugs/Cuddling/Loving up on them! • 5:00 PM: Workday ends. We celebrate with dinner and a long, relaxing evening walk around the neighborhood. • 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Couch time. Dogs hang out with me in the living room for brushing, belly rubs, and plenty of love. • 10:30 PM: Final potty break in the fenced yard before a safe, peaceful bedtime. Daily sweeps of yard for any hazards; constant supervision, especially during yard times and feeding; transparency in meet ups, daily video or photo updates can be provided to help with any uneasiness or anxiety; leashes used during walks; this list is not all inclusive.
“Isabella O. was fantastic! From the beginning she made me feel at ease. She updated Teddy's stay with pictures and explained how he was doing, which was very reassuring. I will most definitely will be using her service again passing on to my friends who might have a concern with leaving a pet (family) with Isabella. Thanx for providing this service to me. JE from Georgia”
“Kyle was awesome. He took my reservation with short notice. Met me outside, helped me bring Benny's crate and things inside. He has a great dog of his own that my dog quickly became friends with. I could tell my dog was well taken care of, he sent pictures and checked in with me to say how Benny was doing. Kyle had all my things ready to go when I came to pick up my dog, helped me load up the car and had Benny walked and fed, ready for the trip home. I brought my dog with me on a trip up from Florida to Savannah and needed a place to keep him while I was in town for a few days. Kyle was really nice and did a great job taking care of my dog. I would definitely use him again the next time I am in Savannah. Thanks, Kyle!”
About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from tiny toy breeds to large working dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I provide patient, loving, and personalized care for each one. I'm comfortable administering oral medications, reinforcing basic training and good manners for puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs who may need extra patience and support. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet like family, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in experienced, compassionate hands. I have open availability and work from home, so your pet will rarely be left alone. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a large, fenced backyard for safe outdoor fun and can provide potty breaks every 2 hours—or more frequently if needed for puppies or senior dogs. Here's a warm, professional response that's well suited for a Rover profile: Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and playtime while making sure they always have fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, comfortable environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play, including access to a large, fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Since I work from home, they're rarely left alone and receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, and lots of affection throughout the day.

I also make sure your home is respected and secure while keeping you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“Was very impressed with how well the babies were taken care of and would definitely recommend booking with Liliana. She was so sweet to my babies even the scaly ones. Thank you for taking good care of my babies.”
“It was my first time booking with Melissa and let me tell you she did an excellent job! The communication was great and she went above and beyond for my cats and reptiles spending time with them and playing with them.

I have found my favorite sitter and you should definitely book with her she is so sweet and really takes pride in caring for your pets. Thanks Melissa!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Arcola
About: I've had animal experience as long as I can remember. I've had a ton of pets growing up, from ferrets, to fish, to cats, and of course dogs. I had to take care of all of them and all of the responsibilities in taking care of a pet. Animals make me a happier and better person. One day I plan on owning and operating my own pet day care, where you can bring any animal you'd like and myself and my crew will take care of them Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is take care of my pet; I let my dogs out and I feed them. They go out multiple times a day and get fed twice a day. I will provide your pet with as much outside time as needed. If you have a crate and they consider their crate as their safe space, I will be more than happy to set it up in my home.
About: I bring 15 years of hands-on pet care experience, giving me a deep understanding of different breeds, personalities, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and senior pets who may need extra love, slow walks, or medication reminders. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood, especially while their family is away. My goal is to keep routines consistent, provide lots of affection, and give you peace of mind with updates, photos, and clear communication. I work from home and I’m also a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I’m home consistently, which means your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and a steady routine — not just quick check-ins. Whether it’s regular walks, feeding on schedule, or extra cuddle time, I’m able to be present and attentive. Pets are part of our daily rhythm here, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and included in a calm, comfortable home environment. I truly treat every pet like family. Whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I focus on keeping their routine familiar and their environment comfortable. I offer plenty of affection, playtime, and patience, and I make sure their needs are met — from feeding and walks to quiet cuddle time. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level, so they feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. My goal is for them to feel at home, not stressed or out of place.
About: I am a pet lover who really enjoys to engage with animals. It is a form of therapy as well as exercise for both me and your fur. I have been around animals all my life. I enjoy being a caregiver for such an important part of your family. I have experience with show dogs, grooming, and dog behavior. My number one concern is giving the owner piece of mind that one’s pet is safe and cared for while the owner is away. A dogs surroundings is what makes that fur most comfortable. It will be an honor to serve you and your pet. Finally, I will provide you daily updates, pictures, and videos of the care and love I provide to your pet. Thank you for trusting me with an important part of your family

Everywhere humans can be the dogs can be also. The backyard is fenced in and the gate is rarely ever opened. We have cameras everywhere so we always have a visual of what's going on inside and outside in the yard. If needed we have a baby gate to section off areas for pets.

“Piper loves her stays ❤️❤️ I really appreciate the great communication and all the picture updates. I’m usually very cautious about sending Piper to other people’s home, but Brydget and Chad put my mind completely at ease. I never have any worries when Piper is with them, and I fully trust their care. Plus they get all of Piper’s photogenic angles 😉”

“I 've used Chrystal for daily drop ins and a drop by walk. She is great and I am glad I found her for my senior dog. Dottie took right to her and even one of my cats visited with her while she was there. I will certainly use her again. I appreciate all the pictures from the visits!”
About: I have always been in charge of care for dogs since I was young. I currently have four dogs back at my family home and care for my roommates small pomeranian and occasionally care for my sisters two dogs (large and medium sized). I am skilled in training animals and have experience with puppies even from birth. I have experience with senior dogs and know the special techniques to care for them. I have not had much experience with cats however other than the couple strays I help with sometimes, but I am open to getting to know cat care better. I currently work full-time at a local day care, but I am allotted long breaks M, W and F. I am also a full-time student so T and TH a lot of my time is taken by classes. S and S, I do have a flexible schedule and can stretch my availability to fit your needs! AVAILABILITY: M, W, F: 11am-12pm & 6pm-8pm T, TH: 6pm-8pm S, S: 7am-6pm I work full-time currently at a Daycare and am a full-time student, but during my breaks from work I would love to come and help when available. I keep my pets into great care. They eat two/three times a day, are well groomed and well played with. They are showered with love and care.
“Rachel has truly been the best to my pup. She came to visit/walk my dog almost daily for the past few weeks and she has been reliable, responsive, attentive, and kind. Every visit, she left me with lots of cute photos and a detailed update about my pup and their time together. My pup always seemed nothing short of happy, comfortable, and at complete ease. Rachel is a kind hearted and thoughtful sitter who truly treats your dog like her own. She even purchased my golden doodle some of her favorite treats when we ran out at home and made sure to ask for my permission before doing so! The only reason I have parted ways with Rachel is because I have moved out of town, and leaving her was the saddest part about moving! I wish I could continue service and proceed with the same peace of mind Rachel gave me. Like many pet parents, I have a lot of anxiety about others caring for my pup, but I never felt an ounce of that with Rachel. I always had the upmost confidence that my pup was in great hands. I highly recommend her to all!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently care for my own large dogs and chickens, and I run a local pet service business in the Statesboro area.

I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each animal’s unique needs. I’m happy to send photo updates and messages so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away.

Their happiness and safety will always be my top priority.
