About: Hi! I’m Vanya I've been caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities since I was 12. From playful puppies to senior companions, I’ve provided loving, reliable care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s a quick drop in, feeding, playtime, or just some company while you’re away, I treat every pet like family. I'm committed to making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved, right in the comfort of their own home or mine if needing boarding. I’m currently in college but I’m in school online and also a sahm! I do have a baby to consider but I’m pretty open and flexible :) When caring for pets in your home or mine, I prioritize their comfort and routine. I always follow your instructions closely whether it's feeding, medication, walks, or playtime to keep things consistent and stress-free. I take time to build trust with each pet and ensure they feel safe and relaxed while you're away. During walks, I use secure leashes and stay alert to keep your dog safe at all times. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities.
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.

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. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any training routines. 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.
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.

Cat caregivers near you - Claxton
About: Experienced pet care professional with countless years of experience caring for pets of all types, ages, and temperaments. Particularly experienced with nervous/anxious pets and their special needs. I currently have completely open availability for all day and overnight care of your pets and your home. I am willing to stay in your home for your pets’ comfort or to visit late at night and early in the morning. I am unable to care for pets in my home because of my own dog’s anxiety. Because of my experience with him, I am well prepared to care for pets that have anxiety, aggression, and nervousness. I am prepared to provide all of the attention or distant care that they require.
About: I meet my first cat named Melly when I was 20 and she immediately took to me. She later had my baby Greyson who I fell in love with and ever since then I have been taken to cats! I have watched several cats before and I am aware and understand how each cat is different and require so much! I would love to meet and treat them as though they are my baby Greyson!
“Cheryl watched our cat while we left her alone for the first time, and she gave us peace of mind while we were away. I hope she’s available to watch her again during our next trip!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter!!! Samantha is an absolute gem and took such good care of our two kittens while we were away on vacation. She made sure they were fed, everything was cleaned, and that they had lots of love. Our kittens got into the trash and made a few messes but she did amazing and cleaned everything up for us. She even left some toys from her own cats that’s the kittens loved. I couldn’t say more positive things about this whole experience thank you so so much Sam we’ll definitely be booking again!!!”
About: I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size. At the moment, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and then on Mondays and Wednesdays I am attending a class from 9:30 AM to 12:30 AM, which anytime before or afterwards I can help walk or watch over pets. While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.
About: Since age 12, I've loved and cared for a lot of cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities.I have a soft heart for senior animals, and the playful energy for the little ones! I'm currently a student with a flexible schedule for walks and sitting for your pet. I'm available for house sitting, drop ins, and walks, during weekdays and weekends. When you trust your pets to me, you can rest easy knowing I'll care for them as if they're my own. Communication is key, and I'm happy to accommodate to your pet's schedule and routine, providing frequent updates to ease any anxiety.
“Highly recommend Timothy! I needed last minute help with my 2 pups (lab and great dane) and it was perfect! The boys were taken care of and happy! Great communication and on time for my appointment! I will be using him again for sure!!!!! 10 🌟!!!!!”
About: I grew up with a grandfather who had a service dog for his medical condition and from a young age I was fascinated with dogs because of it. The way she could smell his blood sugar levels and alert him and constantly be loyal and obedient to him just amazed me. People are pretty amazing, but dogs are inspiring. I not only learned how to treat a dog to gain the best companionship from one, but also how to be a good leader and caretaker. I also grew up with a family dog in my home (picture of me as young girl with my dog, Shyla). She was a gentle, loving, sweet dog who was given to us after her previous owner mistreated her and she was removed from her home and put into ours. Beyond that, my family has multiple cats that mostly remained outside but were typically snuck into the home by me and my siblings (my poor Mom loved them but has bad allergies to cats). In short, I have learned a lot through experience, observation, and inquiry and I would love to shower your pet with the attention and love that they deserve. I’m currently a stay at home wife who attends college online with my major focus being psychology. I spend most days at home tidying, working on school, and relaxing so I have plenty of time to play fetch, go on walks, and cuddle on the couch. I love to play and pet and cuddle with dogs but I also enjoy taking care of them and knowing their wants and needs are not only met but exceeded. As far as how I will care for your pet(s), will depend on what you ask of me and what boundaries you set for your pet(s). The secure feeling in knowing your pet(s) is taken care of in the manner you want or would have done is important for your peace of mind, and understandably so. I consider your requests or concerns with upmost respect because it’s ultimately about making you and your pet happy.
About: I have 2 pets of my own. A dog and a cat and I love them with my whole heart. 3 years ago I started watching my neighbors large size dogs and fell in love with it. I have graduated from Georgia Southern University with my Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice. I live in Statesboro full time and I am just trying to make a little extra money on the side! I am free Monday - Friday and on the weekends as well! I currently have a dog and cat that live with me. As for watching my neighbors dogs I have had them in their crates because that’s how the owner had them. I now live in Statesboro full time and sadly they moved away and I do not watch their dogs anymore.
About: I’ve had my cat, Halloween, for 4 years. I adore him, he’s a great little guy and has brought sunshine into my life. I have given him oral medication, I keep him entertained, and make sure to stimulate him throughout the day. I have the skill-set to take care of your kitty, and make sure they have the utmost care and attention.

Easily will bond with your furry friend, and ensure their happiness with our time spent together! Have experience with bathing, walking, playing with them, training mildly if they’re willing to listen, and on top of nourishing foods for them <3 I work part time Thursday-Saturdays at a chiropractor facility! If you are fine with me checking in on your furry friend before and after I am done with work, I’m happy to accommodate that! Sunday-Wednesday’s I am free and available to accommodate the needs you are seeking if it’s just a walk, check in, or even staying over in the comfort of their own home! Will notate and take in any rules, stipulations, or concerns when watching over your furry friends at your place!

About: 1I have had pets throughout childhood and into adulthood. I used to train dogs and I treat your fur babies with the same love as my own! I have a pretty open schedule that can easily accommodate boarding, last minute boarding/ house sitting and more! Let me know what service you need! I have plenty of room to run laps around the.backyard! We go on daily walks and sometimes we even get puppuccinos and become couch potatoes 😊
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, whether that being pets growing up or my dad taking me to the farm. I’ve been working at Cindy Lou’s Do’s for 3+ years now and I do weekend boarding every weekend for dogs, cats and even pigs every so blue moon. My compassionate and fun personality will ensure the best care for your pet. I work part time at 2 jobs currently and i’m a college student but im always home and have breaks in between classes and things. my work schedule during the week is either 7am-12pm or 12pm-5pm. On weekends I also do dog boarding and the times I go in to walk and check on the dogs are 8,12 and 5 so most weekends i’m free to stay for boarding as long as i’m able to leave in between. I live in a gated neighborhood with one dog and 3 cats occasionally when the one outside wants to come in. They are all friendly and get along well with other pets. Pets to me are like children and need to be watched at all times and basically coddled, that is no problem for me whatsoever. quite frankly i enjoy it.
About: I’ve grown up with cats for a while. I had three boy cats at once and they were the best. I know some cats can be skiddish or even grumpy but i know to leave a cat alone if need be. I’m also available to check in and give you cat love if they need it. I’m very good with cats!

I am definitely booking Jordan again in the near future.”

About: Hey! My name’s Matt and I’m a full time student online. I grew up watching my family’s dogs, cats, birds and fish. I also volunteered at my local ASPCA. Your dog will feel right at home with plenty of attention, treats and cuddles while I’m busy at my computer. I have a large yard and trail for walks/exercise. I do have a 14 year old dog named Benny who likes to sleep and lounge around during the day.

I’m a full time online student, so I’ll be home 99% of the time unless I’m running a quick errand. I have a spacious, 2 bed room house with a large yard.

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.

We will be booking with Jennifer again and highly recommend her for anyone who wants exceptional care for their furry friend!”

I make sure my pets are safely secured on their leashes before every walk. That they have what they need: water, treats, and doggie bags for cleanup. Making sure there are no electrical cords or anything else they could chew on. Double-checking they have food and water and are comfortable.

About: 1I have had pets throughout childhood and into adulthood. I used to train dogs and I treat your fur babies with the same love as my own! I have a pretty open schedule that can easily accommodate boarding, last minute boarding/ house sitting and more! Let me know what service you need! I have plenty of room to run laps around the.backyard! We go on daily walks and sometimes we even get puppuccinos and become couch potatoes 😊
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, whether that being pets growing up or my dad taking me to the farm. I’ve been working at Cindy Lou’s Do’s for 3+ years now and I do weekend boarding every weekend for dogs, cats and even pigs every so blue moon. My compassionate and fun personality will ensure the best care for your pet. I work part time at 2 jobs currently and i’m a college student but im always home and have breaks in between classes and things. my work schedule during the week is either 7am-12pm or 12pm-5pm. On weekends I also do dog boarding and the times I go in to walk and check on the dogs are 8,12 and 5 so most weekends i’m free to stay for boarding as long as i’m able to leave in between. I live in a gated neighborhood with one dog and 3 cats occasionally when the one outside wants to come in. They are all friendly and get along well with other pets. Pets to me are like children and need to be watched at all times and basically coddled, that is no problem for me whatsoever. quite frankly i enjoy it.
About: First off I am more than just a dog sitter..I am an animal lover and I have a lot of compassion for all dogs and animals ! Your dog/furbaby is going to think of me as a best friend before the day is over. I will be available at least 3 times a day to walk, feed, groom, play, and whatever else it is you and your dog need ! I have not only owned my own furbabies, but I have also helped take care of other people’s pets for at least 17 years now. I love all animals and can help take care of your pets even if it is more than just a dog..I also love and take care of cats, rabbits, birds, hamsters, fish, and more ! I work from home and only leave to drop-in on my other fur baby clients. So I am never gone any longer than 30 minutes a day. I have a fenced in yard, so all fur babies in my care get to roam free and I also take them on walks around my neighborhood for exercise. Not to mention the one on one attention they receive and endless love and cuddles! I make homemade dog treats too. Sweet potato, blueberries, and all!
