“Donna did such a great job taking care of my little kitty boy Sebastian while we had flooring done in our home. Thank you so much Donna for your kindness and I will definitely be in contact in the future when I need a trusted person to care for my pet.”
“Steve is wonderful! He boarded and cared for our little Havanese while we were on vacation. Steve is welcoming, responsive, and has a genuinely kind heart for dogs. Yuki was loved, calm, and happy when we picked her up. We would highly recommend Steve and will definitely be a repeat client!”
“Brandi was wonderful with our fur babies. She sent lots of pictures and was great at communicating with us during their stay. She was also quick to reply when I sent an inquiry for sitting and was flexible with pick up and drop off. I can tell my poodles felt relaxed in her care. I’d be happy to book her again and would recommend her to others in need of a sitter.”
“My dog absolutely loved staying with her! She’s great at communicating and sending me updates of my baby, I felt safe with leaving my dog with her, and she took great care of him. Will definitely be coming back!”
“After our initial Meet & Greet we were super impressed with Poria! We have already had a second extended stay for our Fur Baby and it turned out awesome! Poria sent lots of pictures and updates and was so understanding about Gunny's needs. She came home a very happy puppy! I would highly recommend Poria. She's the best.”
“My pup was well taken care of and happy. He came home tired (that's a good sign) and content. He didn't even seem that happy to see me. Haha! So I guess he was planning to live with his new friends.”
“Brooke was absolutely amazing with Ellie while we were away for 6 days! I received daily updates and soo many pictures, which was so much fun to see her being treated like her own. I never had to worry about her and knew she was in great hands. I highly recommend Brooke and would definitely book with her again! 🐾 ❤️”
“Our baby loves staying with Emily!! I don’t trust many people to watch him but she does such a great job and he’s always worn out when he gets home from playing! We will continue to use Emily for all of our pet sitting needs!”
“Excellent experience all around. This was our first time leaving our unsocialized dogs anywhere outside the home they know. Joshua's experience in training and socialzing dogs was apparent in their demeanor in the daily updates. Getting daily picture updates kept our minds at ease as well.”
“We had an amazing experience boarding our pup, Appa, with Tessa & Travis! They took fantastic care of him, and their dogs loved playing with him. Highly recommend their services for any pet parent!”
“Nicole is amazing- from booking to pickup she made everything easy and was incredibly accommodating and flexible when my flight got delayed. The dogs came home totally relaxed having had a great weekend with lots of love and attention. We’ll definitely be bringing the girls to Nicole again!”
“Marcus was great with Rosco and from the pictures he sent Rosco enjoyed being there!! This was the longest I have left Rosco behind so I was nervous how he would act, but he seemed happy and unbothered in the pictures. THANK YOU again Marcus! I will definitely rebook when there is a need. 🤗”
“Jenn was beyond amazing! She cared for our boy Loki as her own and made sure to keep him fulfilled and entertained throughout his stay. Went above and beyond to help him feel welcome, happy, and loved 😊 The backyard was an advantage as well and a very safe space! Very grateful for all the pictures and updates she would send even if it was just something simple, made us feel connected with Loki while away ❤️ He had an amazing time with Jenn and Millie! Loki definitely loved his stay and we will for sure be messaging for future stays!”
“Angela and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ellie, while we were away on our spring break vacation. From the very beginning, Angela was kind, communicative, and clearly loves animals. What meant the most to us was that she sent daily pictures and updates, which really helped ease my son’s worries about being away from Ellie. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Ellie was not only safe but also happy and well cared for. Angela and her family treated Ellie like part of their own family, and we are incredibly grateful. I highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Paws & Effects exceeded my expectations while watching my little girl Phoebe. From the meet and greet through pick up, Alexcis experience and love for her job shined. From start to finish Alexcis was beyond professional. Phoebe was sad to leave Alexicis and her friends. We will definitely book again!”
“Valerie was great with our dog Mocha! She took Mocha on lots of walks and sent us lots of cute pictures. Her apartment is very dog friendly. Valerie is very nice and friendly. I was very comfortable leaving Mocha there and had no worries.”

About: I love all animals (except maybe tarantulas) and know how important it is to have a responsible person to care for your pets while you are away. As a former vet tech, I can identify issues early, know when they can be treated at home vs requiring a vet visit, and I can also administer medications and fluids. While I cannot board animals in my own home due to having two dogs of my own, I can't wait to cuddle with your pets while you're away and ensure they are well taken care of! I have worked remotely for the past 12 years. I am in between jobs at the moment but still only searching for remote roles, so my schedule is very flexible. I know it can be hard to trust a stranger in your own home so I thank you in advance for giving me an opportunity to prove that I am trustworthy, responsible, honest, and genuine. I promise will treat your home and your animals better than my own!
“Hannah did a great job taking care of my kitties!! She even went above and beyond and swept around the litter box and brought in packages for us! She sent me pictures and kept me updated on them as well.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats since I was born and I’ve always had at least one animal in the house. As a result, I’ve grown very accustomed to the needs and languages of pets. I have watched over my extended family’s pets since I was about 11. I can walk, feed, bathe, and play with cats and dogs alike. I’ve raised my 95 pound german shepherd by myself but I also have experienced raising a small chihuahua mix and various sizes of cats. I am available everyday, however I need to be able to be gone for some hours during the day, as I have a part time job. I am able to be with your pets in the morning and night, and sometimes during the day too. I can adapt to care for the animals in your home however you wish. Whether that’s through walking them to go to the bathroom or watching them as they run around in the backyard. I will do whatever you need me to do for your pet.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I can make sure your furry baby is loved and well taken care of no matter what size, age, and energy level! I also have experience with puppy training & sitting. We go for walks every morning and evening and welcome any addition to the pack to make sure everyone gets enough exercise & stimulation for the day! I work from home with flexible hours so am able to get your fur babies out whenever needed. I live in a house with a fenced yard so there is plenty of space for your pets to run around and play. We also have a very friendly, 4 year old, golden retriever to keep your pups company during their stay!
“Mary was absolutely amazing! She made sure to make our dog feel so comfortable and loved. She always made sure to do everything we requested so that nothing in our dog’s routine would be different. Will be rebooking in the future!”
About: You don't have to board your dog in a business that locks up and leaves at night. Your dog can stay with a loving family like ours for around the same price point. I, Angela, have lived in a loving home with dogs my whole life, so I'm comfortable with all kinds of dogs. We call my husband, Rodger, the "dog whisperer" because he channels that Cesar Millan energy and dogs love his calm, assertive energy. We're a happy family of four (2 adults & 2 pre/teens) who all love helping with the dogs who stay with us. Furry friends are given full run of the downstairs of our home and 24hr access to a dog friendly yard outdoors through a doggie door. We're happy to give lots of walks and snuggles and snuggles as well. We are currently in an employment transition, with at least one adult at home during the day. We have a flexible schedules for walking/feeding on your dog's schedule. We have a four year old, well trained, fun loving Golden Retriever, fenced in dog yard, doggie doors for full access to outside, and the dogs have a full run of the downstairs inside our home.

“I had Hannah over again to hang out with Moonwater and just knowing someone is here is enough, but knowing someone my cat actually likes is worth every penny! Hannah is respectful of the space and communicates well 💯”
About: I’ve cared for cats of every age and personality since I was 15 years old — from playful kittens to calm seniors. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, groom, administer medications, and keep litter boxes fresh and clean. I understand that every cat has its own unique routine and quirks, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. Whether your cat loves playtime, quiet company, or extra cuddles, I’m here to make sure they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Brandi did a great job with Rocky. It was his first time with a sitter and I was very apprehensive about how well he would settle in. He ate, pottied, played, napped and had a good time. Brandi communicated throughout the day and really made me feel more comfortable that she was taking good care of him. I would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Brandi.”
“Alexcis did a great job at making us feel comfortable during our meet and greet before leaving our Charlie for doggy day care. She asked us important questions about Charlie so that she was prepared to make sure his stay was a positive one. She sent us multiple pictures and updates through out the day because she knew we missed him and its Charlie and ours first time leaving him with someone else. I’m very glad to have had her take care of Charlie and we 100% will have her take care of him in the future.”
“Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe are an absolute pleasure to be with! I can already tell that they are going to provide continuous top level care for my puppy while she’s with them. Absolutely going to be taking her back. Thank you Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe! I’ll be seeing y’all again very soon!”
“Kristina and her boyfriend are amazing people !!! My puppy was well taken care of without me in site. Kristina also sent me a lot of good pics while he was there and kept me updated on what was going on and everything. I think I have a lifelong friend now with them both!! They have beautiful spirits and great energy to be around. I look forward for Paco to go over there again and again !!”
“We drove down from Ohio for a graduation in GA and needed to find someone to care for our 1.5 year old golden doodle. We’ve never left her with anyone before and were a bit nervous, especially before 12 hours from home. We were so happy with Mary and Felix and the care they gave her. We appreciated the pictures of our sweet girl that they sent to us as well. We have another graduation next year and will be reaching back out to them again for sure when we are back in the state.”
“Heather was great! She was very flexible and accommodating to my schedule especially on short notice. She took care of my frenchie Papi for daycare over the course of two days. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me well updated. Her two dogs played very well with him and Papi was wore out, which is exactly what I wanted!”
“Cassie is absolutely wonderful. She has a calm spirit and was great with my puppy. She's excited to see Cassie everytime we visit. I got pictures, video and even a little training for my puppy. If you're looking for someone professional and who will take great care of you dog, Cassie should be your first choice.”
“Michelle was a joy to work with , she kept me updated on my pup with pictures and videos his entire stay and her dog Max is a gentle giant he made Dash feel welcomed”
About: I've had dogs of all sizes and ages since childhood. My husband faithfully walks the dogs at least once a day. We have two small dogs who love to play and run. We would love to have your dogs here with us well-taken care of while you are away! Tessa is a stay-at-home mom who occasionally babysits or subs at school. If we accept your reservation, she will be here at home to take care of the dogs as needed. We have a fully fenced yard. We usually leave our doggie window open except in extreme weather, so your dog can go in and out as desired. We have a dachshund mix and a shiz tsu/ poodle who would love to keep your dog company
“Larissa and her dog took excellent care of our 8-month-old Golden Retriever. He had a wonderful time playing with her dog. We are planning a long trip soon, and we have complete trust in Larissa and her family to take great care of him again. Thank you!”
“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”
“Geraldine and her husband has been amazing with our Nui boy! They have been amazing in watching, caring and loving him while we went on our family trip to Hilo. She kept us up to date on how he was doing every day and took lots of pictures of him which made us so happy that he was enjoying himself. She is great with Nui as he is very anxious and it was his very first time away from us at all. She’s amazing and so much so that we asked for her to watch him for the day so that we could enjoy celebrating a birthday without having to worry about him. We appreciate Geraldine and her hubby for all that they do and we definitely recommend her to everyone! We will definitely keep her in mind should we need services again. Grateful and thankful for the aloha she shares with our Nui boy. Mahalo Nui loa!”

Feel free to reach out if you want to know more or set some time to meet beforehand ☺️ Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I’m home all day. Between my own two dogs and any pets I’m looking after, my day usually includes lots of walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping everyone on a good schedule. I love being able to give each pet the attention and care they need throughout the day. My backyard is fully fenced and offers plenty of space for potty breaks and outdoor play. I am very trust worthy and make sure your pet is secured safely in my home leaving no doors open for long periods of time.
“Michelle is my go-to sitter. Her and her husband are extremely accommodating to my and my husband’s constantly changing schedules. My dog loves running around in Michelle’s yard and playing with her dogs. My dog is always exhausted when she comes home after a day with Michelle and she’s always ready to jump in the car and gets so excited when we arrive in Michelle’s neighborhood. We will continue going through Michelle for our sitting services.”

About: I have fostered, nurtured, rehabbed, and found appropriate and long term homes for many animals throughout my life. Many of the dogs and cats I’ve found abandoned/ or in danger of being euthanized have gone to long term homes with people who I am still in touch with. I have also rescued and nurtured native wildlife and found numerous programs to move them back into the wild. I believe my compassionate approach and love for animals has led to care for animals in a way I find deeply fulfilling. I have gained so much experience with specialized medical care, patience, and a gentle approach that has, I hope, left a positive impact on all animals and people involved with them. These experiences have shaped me into a person whos been able to assist with many complex pets and handle unique needs. My goal is to create trusting bonds with your pet and provide thoughtful and respectful care to any animal I encounter. I work from home Monday through Friday and am afforded flexibility. Id love to add spending time with your pet to my schedule, and enjoy bonding with animals. I have two cats, one spent years in foster care and is very friendly. I also have extra space in my home to accomodate a pet that would not typically get along with the cats.
“When it comes to select a person I usually count on my dog senses and since I needed to choose a dog walker I totally relayed on his preferences. When Paige first met us it was like pure love. They couldn't stop petting and play with each other. So I decided to give it a go and see. After a few walks i am happy with my choice. Paige seems to take good care of my baby in a very responsible way. She is also very accommodating. I would recommend her with no hesitation of any kind.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for my family for about a year now, and I’ve been wanting to walk dogs for a while now, and I believe I’m the best choice for your needs. I am currently on summer break, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with you animals! I am available any day of the week from 7am-9PM. I live in a house with a fenced in yard that my cat loves to play in. He loves to go on rides weekly. I also clean out his litter box daily.
About: Pets are part of our families, so I know how stressful it can be to worry about your fur babies while out of town or even at work. I have been watching pets for friends and family for several years now and I strive to give excellent care and attention to any animals under my care. I have experience with both large and small dogs, cats, and many different species of reptiles and rodents as well. I am happy to accommodate any needs or wants for your pets while in my care and I assure you that they will be given the utmost care and attention. Whether it is overnight or simply a walk around the neighborhood, I will treat your pet as if they were my own. I am currently available all day, every day of the week so I can give plenty of individual attention to your fur babies at any time of day! I currently have three years of veterinary medicine experience and use this to enhance my care of the pets I come in contact with. Recently, I acquired my fear free certification to show my commitment to keeping animals as calm and relaxed as possible in any situation.
About: With over five years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs — from energetic play sessions and long walks to quiet cuddle time. I’m experienced with basic training reinforcement, feeding schedules, bathing, and giving medication when needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment so your dog feels happy and secure while you’re away, giving you complete peace of mind. Available for house sitting any day of the week. On Mon–Wed, I won’t be at the home 24/7, but I’ll still provide regular check-ins, potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and overnight stays as needed. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or mine, I treat them like family — the same way I care for my own two fur babies, Romi (my sweet Schnauzer) and Mocha (my playful Yorkie). Every day, I make sure they get plenty of fresh water, nutritious meals on schedule, regular potty breaks, and walks that match their energy levels. We play, cuddle, and keep a routine that makes them feel secure and loved. I bring that same approach to every pet I look after — paying attention to their unique personality, comfort level, and needs. I’m mindful of safety on walks, keeping pets away from hazards and monitoring them closely around other animals. During pet sitting visits, I make sure your pet gets not just the basics, but also companionship, mental stimulation, and affection. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a midday walk, or staying overnight, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter while giving your pet all the love and care they deserve.

I am able to walk your pets and let them out into fences in back yards as well as put them in crates if need be while no one is home, along with feedings and medications.
“Dorothy is amazing. She has been doing routine walks with my dog for a while now. She’s the ultimate professional (reliable, prepared, and responsive), but also brings an incredible amount of warmth and caring to her visits. She’s been so wonderfully patient with my reactive dog and has gone above and beyond by finding ways to help her interact with her surroundings more harmoniously. Cannot recommend Dorothy enough!!”

I do have a fenced in back yard (privacy fence). I have a few different rooms within my house and can be flexible on the care that you want for your baby
About: The one thing I remember about growing up is that there was always a dog in our house. I'm used to all varies dog breeds ranging from a full sized Akita to a small Yorkie and a Corgi. I am a trusted neighbor with taking care of pets and I've also watched my coworkers, family friend's and my boyfriends animals when needed. I currently live with two medium/ large sized dogs and a small orange cat. I understand the stress of wanting your pets to be loved on and taken care of when you're gone. You can trust me to love your fur babies as much as mine. I work as a gym coach specifically in the evenings for no longer than 6 hours at a time. I am attending Augusta University and my class schedule often changes. We can discuss when booking!

About: My family was against the idea of animals in the house. Instead I was the neighborhood animal caregiver! I still would like to thank my neighbors for trusting me with their animals. Thanks to them I have a love for animals that are out of this world! The way they can tell you boundaries and what they want without any words is amazing. And it is our job as humans to read the body language. Since I have 2 cats at home, I would want the people caring for my animals to treat them well and with respect. So I shall do the same for your fur babies! I currently work at a restaurant downtown and I will be starting school again in the Spring! But I am available most days of the week! Please look at my availability and message me if you have any questions and I would love to work something out with you! I live in an apartment but we do have a small dog park! I would prefer to take care of your fur babies at your residence but I could also (if you would like) take them to a dog park, trail, or something like that! I know dogs love a change in scenery and love to sniff things along the way! Please let me know what YOU as their owner feels comfortable with!
About: Growing up on a ranch, I was constantly around animals and wouldn’t have it any other way! I’ve always loved them. I’ve had many dogs, cats, and all the critters in between! Let me know your pets needs, typical schedule and if you need help redirecting any behaviors or encouraging any commands! *Lost or damaged items are not the responsibility of the sitter. I am available most days and times to give you peace of mind and the best care for your pet when you can’t be there! I always try to accommodate my clients to ensure the best services. I have an older Lab who is friendly but gets stressed if our guests don’t understand when he doesn’t want to play. Dogs that can understand a little bark for boundaries, or are receptive to my commands, fit best to ensure everyone has a good time. Queenie is kind of a mixed bag- she can be protective, submissive, dominant, sweet, grumpy- it just depends on the guest! She seems to get along well with bigger dogs! You can find her protecting me or Benjamin or playing chase or fetch! We have a fully fenced yard. Dog beds, toys and pet friendly furniture!

“Steve is wonderful! He boarded and cared for our little Havanese while we were on vacation. Steve is welcoming, responsive, and has a genuinely kind heart for dogs. Yuki was loved, calm, and happy when we picked her up. We would highly recommend Steve and will definitely be a repeat client!”
“My dog absolutely loved staying with her! She’s great at communicating and sending me updates of my baby, I felt safe with leaving my dog with her, and she took great care of him. Will definitely be coming back!”
“My pup was well taken care of and happy. He came home tired (that's a good sign) and content. He didn't even seem that happy to see me. Haha! So I guess he was planning to live with his new friends.”
“Our baby loves staying with Emily!! I don’t trust many people to watch him but she does such a great job and he’s always worn out when he gets home from playing! We will continue to use Emily for all of our pet sitting needs!”
“Excellent experience all around. This was our first time leaving our unsocialized dogs anywhere outside the home they know. Joshua's experience in training and socialzing dogs was apparent in their demeanor in the daily updates. Getting daily picture updates kept our minds at ease as well.”
“Nicole is amazing- from booking to pickup she made everything easy and was incredibly accommodating and flexible when my flight got delayed. The dogs came home totally relaxed having had a great weekend with lots of love and attention. We’ll definitely be bringing the girls to Nicole again!”
“Marcus was great with Rosco and from the pictures he sent Rosco enjoyed being there!! This was the longest I have left Rosco behind so I was nervous how he would act, but he seemed happy and unbothered in the pictures. THANK YOU again Marcus! I will definitely rebook when there is a need. 🤗”
“Angela and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ellie, while we were away on our spring break vacation. From the very beginning, Angela was kind, communicative, and clearly loves animals. What meant the most to us was that she sent daily pictures and updates, which really helped ease my son’s worries about being away from Ellie. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Ellie was not only safe but also happy and well cared for. Angela and her family treated Ellie like part of their own family, and we are incredibly grateful. I highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Paws & Effects exceeded my expectations while watching my little girl Phoebe. From the meet and greet through pick up, Alexcis experience and love for her job shined. From start to finish Alexcis was beyond professional. Phoebe was sad to leave Alexicis and her friends. We will definitely book again!”
“Valerie was great with our dog Mocha! She took Mocha on lots of walks and sent us lots of cute pictures. Her apartment is very dog friendly. Valerie is very nice and friendly. I was very comfortable leaving Mocha there and had no worries.”
“Terry is an amazing sitter! Lucious and I are blessed to have had her as a sitter. She took Lucious in as her own and practically made him part of her family. She kept to his feeding schedule, took him out for walks, gave him treats and socialized him with her pets, which he very much needed. She also shared pictures of him each day. Lucious enjoyed himself with Terry and was very relaxed in her home. I will definitely continue to use Terry each and every time I need a someone to keep Lucious.”
“It was my first time using Rover and I loved it! She is attentive and understanding. You can tell she loves the animals that she takes care of. With it being my first time away from my dog, especially with Maxi being under the care of a stranger, I was worried and have been missing her even more. Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“Ashley was awesome . My Rose had a great time at her house! I was a little nervous leaving Rose there because she has two pits but they handled her like she was one of the pack! Rose is 9 months old and very energetic , all in your bubble, hey look at me kind of dog and her dogs was wonderful with her!!! I highly recommend Ashley for your pet care needs!!!”
“Samantha and Cole were amazing with my dog! From the moment we met, I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup in their care. They sent regular updates and the sweetest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked so happy and relaxed in every picture, it was clear they treated him right like one of their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”

“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“Extremely knowledgeable in her medical care for pets. She takes creat care to ensure your pet stays healthy, and has an emergency plan in place. She even gave me recommendations on what I can do to keep my babies healthy. Would definitely recommend for pets needing more detailed attention.”
“Katie P. was a great caretaker to our teacup yorkie, Baby. She kept us very updated on how Baby was doing and adjusting to her stay. Another great aspect of Katie P.'s services is the Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/StaffordPups/?hc_ref=SEARCH&fref=nf) she created to allow dog parents to keep up with their dog as much as they want! Katie is very flexible, responsive, and we even believe she taught our dog a thing or two. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
