I also love her bold approach to let my dog play with her other furry guests! My dog came out very happy at the end of her three day stay.”

“I was so nervous leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time. After messaging with Vanessa, my fears were put at ease! After meeting her, I felt 100% confident my little dog, Cricket, was with a loving, caring, and knowledgable caretaker. By the time I got home from our initial drop-off, Vanessa had already messaged me photos of Cricket enjoying a walk and loving their time together. During Cricket's stay, I received daily updates, pics, and even videos. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my beloved pet was in such wonderful hands. I look forward to booking stays with Vanessa again! She is truly amazing!!!”

“Jessica was an attentive and communicative host! I left my dog in her care and have no doubt she was treated as a family member. Jessica kept me updated about my dog's behaviors and eating habits while I was away and sent photos and updates regularly. She answered all my questions and happily gave me a tour of her home so I could see where my dog would be staying. I would be glad to have Jessica as a pet sitter again and will recommend her to others as well. Thanks for everything!”


About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life. I’ve had a dog of my own for 14 years, and I’ve always had dogs in my life since I was 7 years old. Caring for dogs has always come naturally to me, and I understand how much love, attention, patience, and companionship they need. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I especially enjoy caring for senior dogs and understand that they may need extra patience, attention, gentle care, and a little more time to feel comfortable. I’ll treat your dog like family and make sure they receive the same love and attention I would want for my own. As a stay-at-home mom with one toddler and two school-aged children, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. While my older kids do have after-school activities, I’m still home for most of the day and can plan pet care around our family’s schedule. I have a fenced-in yard where pets can safely enjoy some outdoor time, play. I also have one friendly dog of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and helping them feel welcome and comfortable. I’m able to take dogs on walks and make sure they get regular exercise. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and potty breaks.

I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel relaxed and secure.

“Rebekah provided my cat with excellent care while I was away. She was responsive to all of my questions and requests and completed her job duties within the identified timeframe. Most importantly, my cat was not as stressed as prior occasions when I returned home. I highly recommend her and will request her services again.”


“Andrew cared for my 2 cats over the holidays. He was punctual and communicative, asking any questions about unclear instructions that I left to ensure my cats were properly cared for.

“Eve was absolutely amazing! She was able to take care of our little Dolly on very short notice while we were in Valdosta and wanted to spend the day at Wild Adventures. She kept us updated with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dolly was happy and well cared for. Eve was kind, reliable, and treated Dolly like one of her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will definitely be using her again the next time we’re in the area. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Seth did an amazing job caring for our dog. He was a great communicator, his house was easy to find and he took pictures throughout the day to send to us. We would definitely use Seth again.”

“Karin and her son were wonderful dog sitters to our two dachshunds. They sent us updates and photos the entire time we were gone and I know the girls were as spoiled as if they were with us!”

About: Hi! I’ve been raising my 6-year-old male Husky since he was a 3-month-old puppy, so I understand structure, training consistency, and high-energy personalities. We also care for our 16-year-old female Toy Poodle. Senior care has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to manage age-related changes with calm and routine. I personally handle bathing, brushing, nail trimming, and grooming for both dogs. Our home has a secure backyard with a dog door for safe bathroom access, and daily walks are part of our routine. We are a family home with a child, so I only accept dogs that are comfortable in a home environment. I work part-time and manage family responsibilities, so I require advance scheduling. Weekday mid-afternoon availability may be limited, but I’m happy to discuss options to ensure it’s a good fit for both sides.
“I can’t even begin to describe how awesome Jessica has been! She kept me so at ease the entire time, from open communication to pictures. Jessica has been the absolute best ! I can definitely say look no further , you won’t regret it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

My schedule is extremely flexible on a day to day basis which allows me to accommodate most pet schedules. Pets are true family members and deserve love and attention as much as kids. I enjoy providing each pet individual time and attention to help ease any stress while their parents/families are out of town or at work.
