About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for family and friends, including dogs and cats with different needs and personalities. I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets happy and safe. My current hours of work are 7:30 am - 3:30ish pm. I’m available throughout the weekend definitely and may possibly be available throughout the day sometimes. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment whether pets are in my home or their own. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or special diets. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel relaxed and secure.
“Kayla took care of my puppy for 4 days. She was very attentive to the schedule I gave her and giving his medication at the times I asked. She gave me frequent updates and pictures so I never had to worry about what my dog was doing. A great dogsitter!”

“Carly was an outstanding sitter! She greeted us and our boy with politeness and welcoming vibes. She kept us updated periodically on how he was doing. Very sweet family and I would definitely recommend her services to anyone in the Valdosta area.”

“Jane became family after the first stay, my dog didn't want to leave. She treated her like a princess and loved her like she was family. Absolutely blessed to have found Jane. Would 1000% recommend Jane to anyone in Valdosta. She sent pictures and kept me updated, she also only pet sits one dog at a time, zoey loved being the center of attention. Thank you again Jane for such a great experience and taking care of our baby like your own.”


“We are visiting San Antonio and chose Sarah to watch our dog overnight so we could go downtown. We got to meet her ahead of time and felt very comfortable leaving our 11 month old dog with her, her family and the other dogs. The atmosphere is calm, it's apparent that they are set up for watching dogs, and have a fenced backyard so the dogs can play and socialize. I appreciate that our dog got to wear-off some of her puppy energy safely and was allowed to socialize with her children. She sent us with a little Christmas gift for our dog. We plan on using Sarah again while we are here.”

“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. He went on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as requested without issue and spent time with my fur babies, and sent photos every day to keep me reassured. I will be contacting him again to continue watching my little boys! Highly recommend!”

About: Hello! I am a teacher looking to love on animals and make some money to help pay for my wedding! I have cared for many kinds of animals/homes over the years and pride myself on building close bonds with dogs and owners alike!

“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.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Absolutely Amazing! Kayla was phenomenal with my pup, Romeo! I am ecstatic about how wonderfully she cared for him during his time at her doggy day care this week. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in loving, attentive hands. Kayla kept me updated, sent the sweetest photos, and made sure Romeo felt comfortable, happy, and entertained. He came home each day relaxed, playful, and clearly adored his time with her. It’s such a relief to find someone who genuinely loves what they do and treats your fur baby like their own. I can’t recommend Kayla enough — she is truly exceptional and I will 100% book with her again!”

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! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“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: I truly love animals of all shapes and sizes. I personally have 2 dogs, (a 3yo dachshund and 12yo golden retriever) and 1 cat that will be 17 this year. I am familiar with senior and special needs as well as puppies in training. I am currently a SAHM with our 1yo daughter and pets. 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.
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! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have experience in training and handling dogs from puppies to seniors. I have veterinary care experience which allows for low stress administration of medications or other treatments. My experience in behavioral management allows for all dogs to feel safe and comfortable. Plus I am a huge dog lover and want to have as much fun as possible! I work from home and will provide your pet with plenty of company! I also love hiking and exploring new places. Active dogs will join me on these adventures while other dogs will join me on the couch! I take plenty of pictures and provide numerous updates on your pet as well. I live in a quiet and safe community where pets are welcome. Pets will be taken outside every 2 hours and allowed to relieve themselves. Playing, exploring, and ample time and care will be provided!
About: While growing up, there’s never been a time where an animal was not in my home. From dogs to horses to chickens to cats and much more. I currently have 2 rescues and know how much your four legged friends mean to you. I promise with any service you book with me, I will make sure to care for your pet just as much as I would care for my own. I’ve always loved animals and hope to pursue a career in taking care of animals as a zookeeper. I will make sure your pets will get plenty of walk and play time as well as making sure they are as happy as can be! I promise you won’t be disappointed when booking a service with me!
