Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ivanhoe
“First time using the service and shayla was very knowledgeable and professional. She kept me updated with photos and information about my dog. She made the process very easy for me. When it was time to pick up my dog she gave a little sweet card and little doggy toy for my dog. Would definitely use her service again.”
“Gen was wonderful from start to finish. She is great at communication, has the perfect home and yard, sent pics and updates while we were away, and wasn't bothered by our Birdy's extreme excitement when she first got there. I would definitely love to book her again the next time we go out of town.”
“Helia was absolutely wonderful. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our dog. We received regular updates and felt completely at ease while we were away. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Helia made it effortless. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Taylor is absolutely phenomenal. She is so loving and caring towards your animal like her own. Willow is a sweet dog as well. My baby had a blast. Taylor stays in touch and sent pictures and updates. My first time using rover and I will always be using Taylor from here on out!! Absolutely 10/10 rating!!”
“Maria and her family loved my dog, Poppi, like their own! She was able to watch her last minute for me and was very responsive and friendly. She sent the cutest updates and Poppi was sad to leave! Will definitely be using Maria again soon ❤️🐶”
“Thank you David and Julie for taking such good care of Taina. We are already planning our next trip to Savannah since now we know that Taina will be in great hands while visiting Savannah.”
“Teddy had the BEST time with Ashley and her family. They took daily walks to the park, played outside, and even stopped by for a pup cup! I received beautiful pictures, videos and reports daily from Ashley, always keeping me informed of how my little guy was doing. She gave lots of snuggles and cuddles to my little guy and treated him as if he were her own. When I picked up Teddy, she gave him the cutest goodie bag filled with a doggie toy and a beautiful laminated portrait of Teddy for me to hang on my refrigerator. She is so personable and kind and am excited to have found her for my next journey away! Thanks Ashley! You truly are the best! You made my time taking my sweet daughter to college much less stressful. I appreciate you ?”
“Our pup had a great time with Renee! She kept in communication with us throughout his stay and we felt very comfortable leaving him with her. Highly recommend her services!”
“Tressa was fantastic with Tallulah! We were a bit nervous because this was our first time leaving her with anyone. Tressa stayed in constant contact by sending pictures and videos. She didn't just send pictures of our girl sitting alone, but showed her in action with her new pal. We will definitely make Tressa our first choice when we need boarding. You cannot go wrong with Tressa.”
“Alexa did amazing with my cat at her house!! (Even though Martina got a little messy here and there?) She was so sweet and so was her kid! i Think they’re gonna miss my Martina?”
“Kamal is a consummate professional. He is very attentive and cares about the details involved with caring for your pet. Kamal is very responsive providing updates, pictures, and videos. I will definitely book with Kamal again.”
“Brandy is the best sitter we have had, she took súper good care of our Kiba, you can tell Kiba was very happy staying with her. During our time away Brandy keep us updated constantly of what our baby was doing with text and pictures which allow us to enjoy our time away knowing that she was having a good time as well. Thanks a lot Brandy you will be without a doubt our first option for boarding for future needs.”
“Jade sent photos and updates regularly. She is the best sitter that we've ever had. I will continue to use Jade when we need a sitter. Completely the best service we have ever had on Rover.”
“Kaelyn was amazing! She gave Benne a safe place to stay while we went away for the holidays. She and her family loved him like he was theirs, even their dog Leo loved Benne. She sent regular pictures and videos so we wouldn't miss him too much. We will definitely use her again!”
“Usually Zhan can sometimes be a handful and gets some bad separation anxiety. Not only does he get a lot more social interaction with other puppers than usual, Jessica provides great care and great photos of how he's doing. It's not only going above and beyond expectations but I couldn't be happier with the service and based on Zhan's expressions on his face, he's going to be excited when coming back. 5/5 would recommend to anybody without hesitation!”
“We had an amazing experience with Qinrong and her family! They took such wonderful care of Youngjoo and treated her like part of their own family. We received so many photos and videos every day, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was always fast, kind, and thoughtful. We could truly feel how much they cared. Youngjoo can be a bit shy around new people at first, but she looked so relaxed, happy, and comfortable in every update. It was clear that she felt safe and loved with them. We’re beyond grateful for all the love, patience, and attention they gave. Honestly, Qinrong and her family are some of the best sitters we’ve ever had, and we’ll absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for warm, trustworthy, and caring people to watch their pup!”

“Ashley did an amazing job of giving prompt replies, detailed updates, and lovely pictures. It was our second time having her care for our cats and we would be happy to do it again!”
“This was my first experience with Rover, and it was great. Meep can tend to be nervous and anxious when I get home after an absence, but with Melissa taking care of her, this was the calmest I have ever seen her. Meep LOVED her, and recognized, as do I, Melissa's kind heart and great love for animals. She sent me pics of Meep each day, so I could have peace of mind knowing Meep was in very good hands. I highly recommend Melissa as a pet sitter!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Chrystal was fantastic! She is quick to respond and sends detailed info about each cat with each check in. Even sends pictures to go along with it. Extremely trustworthy! Will 100% use her again!”
“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 🌟!!!!!”
“I booked with Ms. Heather and she was so sweet! She did a meet and greet and sent me lots of updates whenever she came to walk max. It was very last minute and she still agreed and did a great job!”
About: I have a ragdoll cat that it was to rescue from a really really bad home. She had bad fleas and a lot of scabs and a really bad chicken allergy. I was able to nurse her back to health and get her in a stable condition she has been with me for two years now and she has not had a single outbreak since we discovered her chicken allergy so I know how to get a cat medicine and treat open wounds. I also know how to handle a cat with allergies.
“She was absolutely amazing!! She took care of my kitty and sent me pictures of her throughout the booking when I was out of town. She was very understanding and patient as well. I will book with her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets of all kinds since I was a little girl, from the family pets of cats, dogs, birds and hamsters. To pets of all ages and kinds, of friends and neighbors. Walking, bathing them, helping to nurse them back to good health after surgery’s to even just taking time to sit and snuggle and talk with them when owners are busy with work or vacation. I’m currently working for the Elementary school. I have a break at lunch to come and care for pets needs during the day that might have a sleep over or I’m free at 5pm Monday- Friday to come and care for pets. I’m off on weekends and have very long holiday breaks due to working for the school as well as summers off. I have lots of extra time to make sure your family pet never feels lonely while in my care. I have a big fenced in yard. And a nice large downstairs space with hardwood floors. My neighbor is perfect for taking walks, very low traffic. I currently don’t have any pets of my own, which means more time for yours. I do have 2 very responsible and loving nine year old children that can’t wait to help be hands-on with caring for your pets as we don’t have any of our own ( as of now).
About: I am a registered veterinary technician with 10 years of experience caring for animals! I am able to administer medications as needed, including injections (i.e: insulin for diabetic animals). I am available Wednesday-Friday and some Saturdays and Sundays. I work part time and stay home with my daughter the rest of the week, so she may be with me for drop ins and walks. I have 10+ years of experience as an RVT and work in a specialty setting, so I am very comfortable with pets who have more complex needs.
“Helene showed up on time and took great care of our family which consists of cats and dogs. The drop in visit gave our family the break and attention they needed. I have used Helene a few times and I will continue to use her.”
“Shannon is attentive to your pet as if they are her own. She was a very sweet down to earth girl I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with. Her visits are well documented with cute pics and detailed information about the visit. Her comfortability level with the bully breed was a huge plus! I highly recommend Shannon's services. Feel safe and confident choosing her to care for your pets.”
About: I understand that every cat has their own personality, some are social and playful, while others prefer space and a calm environment. I’m comfortable adjusting to their needs and letting them come to me on their own terms. I keep litter boxes clean, follow feeding routines closely, and make sure your cat feels safe and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide playtime or just quiet companionship, depending on what they enjoy.
About: I have had all kids of fur babies since I was 5. Dogs, cats, reptiles, even helped rehabilitate and release some wildlife for a few years. I am free almost every day to play with, walk feed or bathe your fur babies! Weekends are also free for the most part! see you soon! I currently have a 2 year old Mountain Cur mix who is my little shadow! She is part of the family and she is spoiled rotten.

“Gen took great care of Maisie this week! Maisie had lots of time to play and snuggle! Gen was super accommodating with our crazy schedule! We would absolutely leave our Maisie with her again!”
“Jennifer helped us out at the last minute with our dog Maggie. She was VERY responsive, and she provided updates when I asked for them. Maggie appeared to have a good time with the other pups in the house. If we're ever back in this area and need a dog sitter, we'd use Jennifer again without hesitation! Many thanks to her for taking good care of Maggie, and at the last minute. This was our first time using Rover; it was such a great experience that we plan to use it again.”

We recommend Sarah for anyone needing a caring and kind dog sitter. We had a lovely day in Savannah with no worries. Thank you Sarah!”
“We reached out to Maria for a last-minute request and she was not only able to accommodate, but was very flexible with us. Sika had an awesome time lounging around with Maria and her family; I thought we may have a hard time getting her to come home with us! 🤣 We will definitely be reaching out to Maria in the future for any of our sitting needs for Sika in this area!”
“A very friendly and professional sitter I would recommend to anyone. She takes great care of my dog and has been reliable for pick ups when I have to be at work early in the mornings.”

“As a first time Rovee customer, I am very delighted with my experience. Jordan was very welcoming not only to Frankie but myself as well. She kept me informed bout his behavior from being with the other dogs, her 1 year old and even during feeding time. She was also understanding of my lateness picking him up. I am definitely booking Jordan again in the near future.”
“Theresa was amazing with my dogs and when we ran into an issue getting back, was extremely understanding and empathetic. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her services again when we visit Savannah again! Thanks, Theresa! 🐾”
“I’ve used different providers for daycare for my dog in the past. Whenever I pick him up, he is always very anxious to leave. That was not the case at all this time. He was clearly very well cared and not ignored while with Simone. I would absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for someone to take care of your pet.”
“Mrs. Amanda was an outstanding dog sitter for my golden doodle, Simba! I highly recommend her to family and friends. She maintained great communication, made pick-up and drop-off a breeze, and Simba enjoyed socializing with other dogs as well!”
“Derv did a wonderful job looking after our senior, high maintenance dog for the day. She even took professional grade photos that she shared with us while we were out. Highly Recommend!!”

I do have a fenced in backyard and I could crate your dog if needed I did take them for daily walks to get some exercise
“Our Chocolate Lab spent the day with Marston and his 2 pups while we explored Savanna. This is my first experience using Rover and it is intimidating to leave our sweet Charlie with someone we do not know. I read his reviews and was confident I was making the right decision. Once we met him and his dogs I knew Charlie was in good hands. Charlie ran right in to party. He sent pictures of their adventures. Charlie came home exhausted. I highly recommend Marston.”
“Brandy is an amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking day care for their fur family members. She went above and beyond keeping me updated on how my dog was doing in her care and is truly passionate about providing too notch care for dogs.”

About: Welcome to Bed N. Biscuit Petcare!❤️ My name is Shayla (34 years old) and I am excited to share my petsitting journey/business with you. ▪️Get to know me: I was born and raised in Valdosta, GA. In my hometown, I volunteered at the local animal shelter for 4 years working with domestic, exotic and farm pets. I knew then animals was my love and enjoyment. Following my passion for animals, I moved to the city of Savannah where I graduated from Armstrong State University with a bachelors in Biology and volunteered at a local wildlife rehabilitation center. I have learned and developed my Veterinary skills and knowledge from working as a kennel technician caring for pets in a boarding environment then naturally transitioning to a Veterinary technician career at a general vet hospital and then later at a specialty practice that included oncology, neurology, physical therapy, internal medicine and also ER. I enjoy applying my years of experience to the well-being of animals and now offering pet care services. My dream home would be living on a farm but for now my husband (Antonio), our son (Levi) and I live with our pitbull mix (Pixie) and cat (Sir Tom). When not volunteering or fostering, I can be found at dog parks with Pixie or fishing with my husband and son. I currently work part time at a local veterinary hispital and offer drop-in services around my work schedule and boarding in my home. ****Please continue to read to ensure full understanding of my business. Thank you for your interest and consideration. **** ————————————————————— [Bed N’ Biscuit’s Information] ▪️Complimentary Meet & Greet Meet & Greet (one): Drop-in meet & greet are done at the location the pet is needing care and scheduled upon our agreed date and time (video chat option also available). If you would like more than one meet & greet then a drop-in fee is applied. ▪️Drop-in Visits We offer 30 minute and 60 minute drop-in visits for pets (cats, dogs, chickens, fish, hamster/Guinea pig, horses, some reptiles). I care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. Great for potty/play breaks during long work schedules and extended vacations or for more sensitive/elder pets for example. Included in this service (if applicable) is bringing in mail, rotating house lights, playtime/potty time for your pet(s), and poop clean up (using your provided materials), litter box scooping. **Prices vary for small animal care or homestead animal care* ————————————————————— [Bed N Biscuit General Rules] • All pets receiving services must be up to date on Rabies vaccine. I’m currently working as a Vet Tech 3 days a week so I offer drop-in and boarding services around my work schedule and am a stay at home mom when not at the hospital. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and stick to the owners routine as much as possible. All care needs will be met for both owner and pet. Any boarding dogs will receive all care and routine in the comfort of my family home. Boarding is provided 1 per household at a time with a max of 2 pets per household. Please reach out to discuss you and your pets needs.
About: With over 6 years of pet sitting experience and 15+ years caring for my own animals, I treat every pet like family. I’m dedicated to providing personalized care, your way, ensuring your pet feels loved and safe while in my care! My open weekly schedule is a little bit tricky due to me working full-time about 20 minutes away. My availability on those days would only be to the pets who don’t need to be let out side for about an eight hour period until I got home. Otherwise, my weekend schedule is fully open and I can be home all day to let any pets outside that I would need to. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and walks—with help from my two kids (ages 9 and 11) to keep them company. Pets are welcome on my furniture! In your home, I’ll follow your routine closely and tailor care to your pet’s needs in any way you request.

I am available most weekdays and weekends during day time and evening hours and can tailor my schedule to your needs. I am in Rincon and Guyton daily for recurring midday walks so let’s chat and see if it’s a match! I will not be offering services in my home at this time. I hope to be able to offer in home services as time passes in the future. When I provide care for you pets, my promise to you is that your home will be just the way you left it.
About: I have one German Sheppard lab mix and she is like my own child. I have always loved dogs and I am ready to take care of your sweet babies. I am currently a full time student with a lot of flexibility to do overnight sitting at my house or everyday dog walks. I can do last minute appointments too. I have a fenced in yard so your dog or dogs will have plenty of room to run. We love cuddles so your dogs will get plenty of love. I love to walk, throw the ball and give treats.
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 😊

“First time using the service and shayla was very knowledgeable and professional. She kept me updated with photos and information about my dog. She made the process very easy for me. When it was time to pick up my dog she gave a little sweet card and little doggy toy for my dog. Would definitely use her service again.”
“Helia was absolutely wonderful. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our dog. We received regular updates and felt completely at ease while we were away. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Helia made it effortless. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Taylor is absolutely phenomenal. She is so loving and caring towards your animal like her own. Willow is a sweet dog as well. My baby had a blast. Taylor stays in touch and sent pictures and updates. My first time using rover and I will always be using Taylor from here on out!! Absolutely 10/10 rating!!”
“Maria and her family loved my dog, Poppi, like their own! She was able to watch her last minute for me and was very responsive and friendly. She sent the cutest updates and Poppi was sad to leave! Will definitely be using Maria again soon ❤️🐶”
“Teddy had the BEST time with Ashley and her family. They took daily walks to the park, played outside, and even stopped by for a pup cup! I received beautiful pictures, videos and reports daily from Ashley, always keeping me informed of how my little guy was doing. She gave lots of snuggles and cuddles to my little guy and treated him as if he were her own. When I picked up Teddy, she gave him the cutest goodie bag filled with a doggie toy and a beautiful laminated portrait of Teddy for me to hang on my refrigerator. She is so personable and kind and am excited to have found her for my next journey away! Thanks Ashley! You truly are the best! You made my time taking my sweet daughter to college much less stressful. I appreciate you ?”

During our time away Brandy keep us updated constantly of what our baby was doing with text and pictures which allow us to enjoy our time away knowing that she was having a good time as well. Thanks a lot Brandy you will be without a doubt our first option for boarding for future needs.”
“Usually Zhan can sometimes be a handful and gets some bad separation anxiety. Not only does he get a lot more social interaction with other puppers than usual, Jessica provides great care and great photos of how he's doing. It's not only going above and beyond expectations but I couldn't be happier with the service and based on Zhan's expressions on his face, he's going to be excited when coming back. 5/5 would recommend to anybody without hesitation!”
“Samantha took wonderful care of Tobi while we were away. She went out of her way to meet with us beforehand for a meet-and-greet, which made us feel so much more comfortable. Throughout his stay, she sent updates and photos, giving us peace of mind that he was in great hands. Tobi came home happy and well cared for. We truly appreciate everything Samantha did and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
