“Rebekah was great and easy to book with. Great care of our baby and sent pictures so we would know he was in good loving hands! Thank you - we look forward to booking again- LL”
“Michelle went over and above taking care of Dash. She communicated daily with pictures. She exercised him daily and one day went to a dog park. I would recommend Michelle to my friends without hesitation.”
“My dog had an awesome stay with Lania. I booked her last minute for an overnight stay and everything was professional and comfortable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for animal care. He got lots of TLC and made new friends with her friendly and well behaved animals. She sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his stay. She was kind and reliable to communicate with and made drop off and pick up very easy. We will definitely be having a "sleepover" again with all our new furry friends!”
“Linda took great care of my girl. She also sent pictures and videos to help ease my fears of leaving Bella for the first time with someone other than family. I could not have asked for a better person to watch Bella.”
“Adrienne is awesome! She is so accommodating with drop off and pick ups. My 2 black labs love going to her house! I’m not even out of sight and they’ve already forgotten me! If I have to make last minute changes to my schedule, it doesn’t faze Adrienne at all. I would highly recommend Adrienne as a sitter to anyone. Pat M.”
“This was our first experience with boarding the pups. We were nervous and didn’t think we could find someone to care about them and treat them the way we do. Josh and Kerith exceeded all expectations. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I received multiple updates per day along with pictures. They even have a dog friendly/accessible pool. That’s where my lab spent most of the week. If you want your dogs to have their own vacation while you’re away on yours, send them to Josh and Kerith.”
“We love boarding our dog Winston with James. Not only is Winston safe and well cared for, but he also has a heck of good time! James is wonderful. We could not ask for a better person to watch Winston.”
“Catecha took amazing care of my pup while I took a small getaway. She was absolutely amazing and had all positivity and kindness towards both my little guy and myself. Highly recommend and would use her again!!!”
“Becky is amazing! She was able to help watch my dog with very short notice. She was a true blessing! She was very accommodating and took the best care of my dog who has some special needs, giving him medications, sticking to a strict feeding schedule, and providing pictures and updates.”
“Valeria had our two timid babies for 5 days. This was the first time leaving them, but they did great. They enjoyed the fenced yard and that freedom as well as her kids. She kept in touch and sent pictures, and never made me feel like I was bothering her. :) We are already planning to utilize her again for a trip later in the year.”
“Amber is AMAZING! Sent pictures of my girl everyday and gave her the best time. We did a meet up before hand to make sure our babies got along, and they had the best time together. She is a kind and safe person for your dog to stay with!”
“Gingi was the perfect person to watch my dogs for a week while I was out of town. Her calm attitude put my dogs (and my anxiety) right at ease. I was able to meet beforehand and let my dogs get to know her and her home. Her home is great, with a big fenced yard. My dogs loved her lounge chair on the back porch. She sent pictures, videos, and messages everyday to show how well they were doing. I definitely recommend her if you need any dogsitting or boarding, and I will definitely let my dogs stay with her if I need to go out of town soon! Thank you Gingi!!”
“Tom & Nikki were Amazing sitters! They were professional and sent us many pictures and updates throughout the stay. I truly felt at ease with all the updates, and I could tell that my fur baby was being well cared for, and he was also enjoying himself! I highly recommend Tom & Nikki to anyone looking for caring pet sitters!!”
“Katie was great ! I would use her again. The set up in the yard for my dog was beautiful. She also was great at sending pictures and updates on my dog. Thank you Katie for making me feel comfortable leaving my fur baby with you.”
“Michelle and her family treated my Po and Basil as if they were their own! It was so great knowing my two were safe and sound, especially with her expertise in the vet med field. Will absolutely book again!”
“It was such a relief when Susan, Aju and Skittles were available to look after Gertie. We enjoyed our time away stress-free, knowing Gertie was well taken care of and appreciated all the pictures Susan sent when she checked in with us every day.”
“King had the best sleepover party with Mika and her family. I appreciate you! I was able to travel for work and not worry about my puppy love. He acted like he didn’t want to leave. A good sign of a good time. Thank you!”
“our second time: i just love how they treat him like their family dog. just how we do it at our home. he’s always so much more well behaved then when we left him. thanks diana and family. love yall dog sitting for us.”

About: I have taken care of cats of every kind since I was 5 years old. I enjoy their observant, playful and often socially selective nature. I am drawn to cats, and them to me. Since I can only have two, I am thrilled to get to care for others. I welcome all duties related to cats- feeding, playing, cleaning the litter box, and administering medication.
“Tricie took great care of my older cat when I was out of town for a few days. She gave her daily medication and lots of care and love! Tricie did a meet and greet beforehand and sent lots of pictures during her drop-ins. She was even kind enough to bring in some packages from our porch. If I ever find myself in need of a pet sitter again, I will definitely contact Tricie! Thank you!!!”
“Christi did a very good job. I also like the fact that she lives in the area. Niko seemed to really like her and my home was immaculate when I came back Niko was very happy to see me, but it was good to know someone was taking good care of him. I will use Christi again.”
About: I am an experienced dog owner and sitter. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including cats and dogs, and have owned multiple dogs since living on my own. Currently, I have one small chiweenie and regular dogsit dogs including Cocker Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, and Great Pyrenees. Shy or nervous rescue pets are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. Pets with medical issues are welcome as I have experience taking care of dogs and cats with a variety of issues who’ve needed everything from shots throughout the day or diaper changes or to receive mobility assistance. I also have experience caring for chickens if you need someone to care for your chicks. I work full-time, but I am done at 4:30PM every weekday except for Friday - on Fridays, I am done at 1 PM. I also have flexibility in my schedule, so I can stop by to take care of any needs during the day or work from home if a pet needs additional care. I am up early every morning to give pets plenty of time to eat and play before leaving. When I get home, the first thing I do is let pets out to potty and to play. Throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for walks and playtime before bed. . First and foremost, I will strive to match or mimic the care and routine you give your pets at home. With a fenced in yard, your pet will have a safe place to potty and play. There are also many parks nearby to take your pet on walks or provide them with socialization. Pets are able to climb on furniture, sleep on my bed, and have mostly free rein of the house — my home is their home while we’re here. However, I have a pet gate I can put up and experience crating pets (as well as crate training dogs) for any pet who can’t be left free to roam.
“Taryn is wonderful-responsible & caring to both our pets and us. She stays in touch, keeping us informed and feeling confident that our home and animals were in the best of care. When we are in need of services, I first reach out to Taryn to see if she is available. I highly recommend!”

My goal is to create a peaceful, consistent experience so cats feel safe and secure while their owners are away!
“Shelby is awesome! She came through without a hitch when we found ourselves in a bind with our 4 cats as we were planning to go on vacation. She was close by and super sweet and even sent pictures. We would love to have her come take care of all our babies in the future.”
About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time. I'm a USC graduate and a rising second year vet student at UGA. I'm passionate about animal care and providing peace of mind to pet parents. I’m comfortable medicating and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I work part time as a veterinary technician during the summer. I'm available to pet sit any time that I’m not scheduled and most weekends. While I can't offer to keep other pets in my apartment, I am eager to keep pets comfortable in their own home while their parents are away. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.
About: I have always had very many cats from kitten to elderly. They are one of my favorite animals to have and know how to show you when there’s something wrong. I always make sure they have everything they need from food to water to having their litter boxes clean. I can also administer medication whether it’s oral or topical.
About: I have had a variety of cats since I was born, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. Cats are undoubtedly my favorite animal, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

I can't explain how excited I am to take care of your babies while your away! Every dog has his day, and today its going to be with me! Also I took a behavior class for an externship so I would be happy to help train if necessary. Training goes by the hour message me for details.
About: I have my own dachshund that I take care of on a daily basis but also have 3 other family dogs tha range from a dachshund to a german shepherd. I’ve always helped taken care of the family dogs growing up. I work 3 times a week and have school but my schedule is very flexible and I can adjust it around based on what I have going on. Any pet in my home that’s not mine would be treated like my own pets. They would be taken care of all the time. The same would apply in someone else’s home. I would follow a schedule feeding and letting the pets out just like I do with my own.

“Winston had a wonderful day with his new friends James, his wife De and their dogs Charlee and Chloe. James did everything we could ask for and more to make Winston's stay a success. We received lots of photos throughout the day showing all the fun Winston was having. That allowed my wife and I to enjoy our day together knowing Winston was being well cared for. This was the first time we used Rover.com and it was a great experience. We will definitely be booking with James again.”
“Nikki and Tom are on the ball with their communication -- responsive in scheduling and eager to share pics of your pup throughout the day. Having a trusted place for my dog on busy days is a godsend. Thank you!”
“Annette was so great with my dog Nova! Her fenced in yard was perfect for playing and sniffing, two of my dog’s favorite activities! Nova had such a fun filled day and even took a trip to the dog park nearby with Annette and her dog!”
“Xionella is an excellent doggy dear care provider. My dog was happy staying with her and he made new friends with two of her dogs. I definitely will come back for her service again.”
“Marlina was fantastic, was super sweet and accommodating for our shy puppy, especially with our dog’s needs for pee pads. She was very gentle and considerate in introducing her dogs to Luna one at a time so everyone could get acquainted smoothly and successfully! We loved the pictures taken throughout the day! Luna had a wonderful time during her play date with Marlina and her dogs!”
“Katie did wonderful. I left my almost three month old pup with her for the day and she did fantastic. Kept me up to date on him as well. My boy is definitely tuckered out! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Michelle and her husband greeted and welcomed Moses to their home so sweetly! This was the first time I had ever left Moses with someone he did not know and they made it easy!! Michelle’s husband even picked Moses up and cradled him as I left. She has been great with Moses and his adjustment to her home and care and has also been very kind to me with updates and pics!! We will return as long as she will let us!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was young. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, XL American Bullies, and Cane Corsos. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of attention and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I promise to be dependable, responsible, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently a college student home for the summer and do not have another job, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. If your pet is staying with me, I will be home for most of the day aside from occasional errands or appointments. This allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in a house with a yard and access to a dog park within my neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions provided by owners and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I will provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs.
About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days. Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training. Then, I go on a walk every day on my lunch and often again when I log off for the day. I’d love for your fur babe to tag along! I have two fenced in yards full of sun and plenty of shade. I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred. I have fresh well water and a walking trail around our property. I can also crate your dog or offer them a bed if they need. Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!
About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work in a veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
About: As far back as I can remember I’ve owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters you name it and I’ve probably cared for it. I love dogs the most and currently own three. Training them, caring for them, playing with them are my passions. I can bathe, trim nails, give medications, train them, walk them properly, and integrate them into packs when requested. I work from home M-F and have flexibility with my hours. I like to travel and I know the cost of putting my dogs up in boarding or day care facilities. We've decided to reduce our travel for now to save up money. I am happy to help out where needed. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. We have a fenced in yard the dogs can run and play in. We also have 2 large dog crates and one small dog crate we keep in case the dogs want/need to be isolated. When we are home our dogs are able to play inside and outside. We have parks close by and take our dogs on walks 2-3 times a day. Your pet would either walk with them or separately depending on his/her ability. We play fetch, we do commands, we can run them or play in water if it’s hot. We love dog parks and shaded walking trails as well. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.. I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home. We have dog beds for them to lie on. We have a big yard and a pool.
“Gingi was quick to respond, and my pup Pi loved his time playing with her and her dog Twink! She sent us lots of photo updates showing how much fun Pi was having which helped me relax while I was out of town.”
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
About: I have had all kinds of dogs (even pits) and cats growing up. I have delt with many puppies and senior dogs;) I have also bottle fed dogs and cats. I have goats and chickens I don’t work I’m a stay at home mom with nothing to do. So I’m looking for things to do and I love animals so it’s a perfect match;) I have 5 acres to run and play on but I also have a fenced in area. I have tons of space for them to be happy. I have tons of space to run and play inside.
“Absolutely love Tara! She treats my sweet baby like one of her own! We will definitely be back and I would recommend her to ANYONE that needs any type of care for their pets. Jameson went to doggy day care and has been more worn out and happy than he ever has been at home!”
About: Hi, I’m Kaitlyn! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up caring for a variety of pets and developed a deep love and understanding for them from an early age. I currently work full-time at Oconee Veterinary Hospital and have several years of experience in both veterinary and pet care settings. In addition to my hands-on experience, I’m also a full-time college student studying in the medical field, which has enhanced my knowledge of animal health, behavior, and overall care. I’m highly attentive to animals’ body language and behavior, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care and compassion to your pets as I would my own. Whether you’re away for a few hours or several days, you can rest assured knowing your pets are in caring, capable hands. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your pets. My schedule includes working at Oconee Veterinary Hospital and attending Athens Technical College. Despite my busy schedule, I am committed to working with you to find a time that fits both our needs—ensuring your pets receive the care, attention, and comfort they deserve. Please note that I am not currently offering pet boarding in my own home due to a recent move. However, I do offer a variety of in-home services at my clients’ residences. I make it a priority to maintain your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away.
About: I have always had a soft spot in my heart for dogs. I have carried this love into adulthood and I enjoy having them in my life. When your four-legged family member is with us they will be treated as one of the family. They will be doted upon and they will be constantly engaged, touched, and talked to. We go for walks in our 1-acre fenced backyard, which facilitates safe rewarding exploration and discovery. We allow the visitors to play and interact with our loving and friendly standard poodles who are great role models to each other and to visiting pooches. Even though your baby will be on their doggie Vaca, We will still use every opportunity to encourage learning, good manners, and good behavior by giving treats and positive reinforcement throughout the day. Stability, engagement, routine, and structure makes a happy dog and we aim to make sure that every four-legged friend who lodges with us, is happy and never wants to leave. Our resident babies eat twice per day and are allowed out for potty breaks three times per day. If it is a rainy day we do indoor activities in our 35x40 temperature controlled dog suite and we even watch a little "Dog TV" We have a great time, rain or shine! Sleeping arrangements will depend on what your baby is comfortable with but we do not allow our pets on the furniture or in our beds (at least when daddy is around). We have kennels but we allow the dogs to sleep anywhere they want to in the dog suite. I am a retired nurse and I am always home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs in my day. We have a huge fenced in backyard where all the dogs enjoy their time outdoors. We also have plenty of equipment in the yard for their enjoyment.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 6. My childhood and the raising of my own family has included many beloved dogs. I have volunteered in animal shelters for over 30 years, and was a Shelter Humane Educator and Volunteer Coordinator. I love all breeds, and enjoy and and am experienced in feeding, walking, cleaning the yard, and administering medications. I am currently semi-retired and am available for walks and drop-ins most days with the exception of Thursdays, when I keep my grand-daughter. Pets enrich my life. I make sure pets are fed, exercised, safe, and comfortable. I follow a routine or the owner's instructions carefully. I keep the home clean and give pets attention and companionship.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m a retired veteran with a flexible schedule, and I provide dependable, attentive care to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like family. I have a very flexible schedule and can often accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and can provide dependable care, exercise, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins when you need them. During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s routine, ensure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe environment, and keep you updated with messages and photos. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats. Having grown up around animals myself, I understand how difficult it can be for pets when their owners are away. My goal is to make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re on vacation, and I’ll give them plenty of attention, affection, and care until you return. I am currently a college kid home for the summer. With that being said I have a completely open schedule right now until I head back in the fall! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they stay on their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on each pet’s individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I always send updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: My experience consists of watching family and friends dogs and occasionally cats. I had a small yorkie with hip dysplasia and cushings that required meds frequently and I had a black lab mix that has also passed away, who was blind in one eye and deaf. I offer companionship and exercise for your pets when you're away. I can help with training, taking them for long walks, going to the restroom, administering medications, or just being an awesome petter for your puppy (because all dogs are puppies, no matter how old). I occasionally work weekends from 8-4pm at a hotel, but am usually up very early and can walk your dog as early as 5am if needed. I have a fully Remote job and will be able to spend the majority of the day with your pets. Constant 24/7 care will have a higher nightly rate, if they are not able to be left alone in any capacity, as I will have to rearrange my schedule. When I walk my dogs, I prefer them to be in a harness for their comfort and safety. I make sure to watch the dogs closely, so if I see any signs of stress, I will promptly remove them from the situation. During the summer months especially, I will make sure to walk them early in the morning or in well shaded areas to make sure their paws are well protected from the hot pavement. I carry a dog water bottle with me on my walks, so they always have access to clean water if needed. When dog sitting, I take them out constantly, offer lots of playtime and stimulation while there, and always make sure the area is clean.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals of all kinds and my genuine passion for caring for them. I’ve cared for everything from farm animals to small dogs and cats, which has helped me become comfortable with pets of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I have also been volunteering at animal shelters since I was 12 years old, giving me hands-on experience working with animals that may be shy, energetic, anxious, or in need of extra patience and attention. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I am currently home from college and have a very flexible schedule. I am available most weekdays and weekends, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. I do have a few weeks during the summer when my availability is limited, but aside from that, I am generally wide open and able to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. In clients’ homes, I respect the pet’s established routine to help them feel comfortable and reduce anxiety while their owner is away. I keep the home secure, clean up after pets, send regular updates with photos if requested, and communicate promptly about any concerns or changes in behavior. Safety, trust, and the pet’s wellbeing are always my top priorities.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 22 years and currently work at the Humane Society of Walton County. Dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals—love them all! I’m energetic, reliable, and happy to give medications or extra care so your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I am employed by Humane Society Walton County but my schedule is flexible! I service Monroe, Social Circle, Madison and Covington! Saturdays I'm at HSWC all day so there is unlikely availability on Saturdays. I only accept jobs in clients home, I abide by what the client instructs and respect their privacy and property. I will not accept aggressive dogs. I currently cannot offer boarding in my home until after summer 2026.
About: I have grown up with so many animals and LOVE them all!!! I am raising a few babies of my own, 3 little cats, and they mean the world to me. I am a super easy going person and love animals so I would love to help you take care of yours! I currently work part-time for a local school in the evenings, but mornings I am completely free and will work around your schedule for sure. I am extremely flexible on my hours! I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, needs, and temperament. Before services begin, I will gather detailed information from the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, behavioral traits, and emergency contacts.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, ducks, geese, chickens, and roosters. I currently care for backyard animals for a regular client, so I’m very familiar with feeding routines, cleaning, and making sure everything stays safe and secure. Pet sitting is my full-time job, allowing me to be fully available and attentive for every booking. My partner Brayden is also on my profile and comes with me to bookings. He has over 10 years of experience working with horses and farm animals, including owning his own horse. Together, we’re confident handling multiple animals and assisting with farm routines and basic horse care such as feeding and turnout. We always follow instructions closely to keep your animals safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I provide full-time, professional pet and farm animal care with a flexible schedule throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight stays. Because this is my primary job, I am able to give each booking my full attention and maintain consistent, high-quality care. I have experience with dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals including chickens, ducks, geese, roosters, and horses, and I tailor my care to each animal’s routine and comfort level. I provide attentive, reliable care with a strong focus on safety, consistency, and trust. I carefully follow all instructions for each pet’s routine, including feeding, handling, and any special needs. I maintain a calm, clean, and respectful environment in every home I care for. I also believe in clear communication and provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away!

About: As far back as I can remember I’ve owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters you name it and I’ve probably cared for it. I love dogs the most and currently own three. Training them, caring for them, playing with them are my passions. I can bathe, trim nails, give medications, train them, walk them properly, and integrate them into packs when requested. I work from home M-F and have flexibility with my hours. I like to travel and I know the cost of putting my dogs up in boarding or day care facilities. We've decided to reduce our travel for now to save up money. I am happy to help out where needed. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. We have a fenced in yard the dogs can run and play in. We also have 2 large dog crates and one small dog crate we keep in case the dogs want/need to be isolated. When we are home our dogs are able to play inside and outside. We have parks close by and take our dogs on walks 2-3 times a day. Your pet would either walk with them or separately depending on his/her ability. We play fetch, we do commands, we can run them or play in water if it’s hot. We love dog parks and shaded walking trails as well. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.. I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home. We have dog beds for them to lie on. We have a big yard and a pool.
About: I have always loved with animals all of my life. I have had dogs and cats, to chickens and horses as well as a duck and a few birds. When a family member would go on vacation, I would be responsible to take care of the animals to make sure they are fed, groomed and taken outside as well as playing with them. I have also taken care of my neighbors animals a handful of times when they would have to leave. I am currently with no job as I am working on starting my own businesses. So I can work around any time needed to help those who need it I have a fenced in yard to let my dogs run around to play and use the bathroom. As for my cats, they roam around the house and have multiple cat towers to play and scratch on. When taking care of other peoples animals, some have fenced in yards to let them run in as others I have to hand walk their dog. I am fine with whatever the client prefers when it comes to caring for their pets.
About: Hi, I’m Katie! I believe pets deserve the same love, comfort, and attention they get at home. That’s why I never use crates, and I only take care of one client’s pets at a time. This way, your furry family member gets all the attention, care, and snuggles they deserve—without stress or overcrowding. I’ve been caring for pets for years and truly enjoy making them feel safe and happy. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime in the yard, or just lots of cuddles, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable and loved. You can feel confident knowing your pet is treated like family while you’re away. What You Can Expect: One-on-one attention (no other clients’ pets during their stay) No crates—unless you specifically request it Consistent love, play, and care tailored to your pet’s routine Lots of photo and message updates for peace of mind I’d love to meet your pet and make their time away from you as stress-free and happy as possible! 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! Since I only take one client’s pets at a time, I’m able to plan my day fully around their needs—whether that’s walks, playtime, meals, or snuggles. I adjust my routine to match theirs, keeping things as close to home life as possible. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s the heart of my day when I have a guest! In my home, pets enjoy plenty of space and freedom in my large 2-acre fenced yard. They get to safely explore, play, and stretch their legs without being confined to crates. I only watch one client’s pets at a time, so your furry family member will never have to compete for attention. Inside, pets are welcome to relax and make themselves at home—whether that’s snuggling on the couch, napping in a sunny spot, or playing with toys. I keep their routine as close to yours as possible, with scheduled meals, walks, playtime, and lots of love. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely to make sure they’re comfortable in their own environment. I respect your space and your pet’s normal routine so everything feels familiar and stress-free.

I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.
About: I live in Union Point, GA. I own a 5 year old mutt named Montag. She’s not the biggest fan of other dogs like I am, so she’ll likely stay home if I’m working with your dogs.

I look forward to meeting your lovable dog and taking them on adventures! All sizes and breeds welcome. Please feel free to contact me with any questions and thank you for your consideration! I have one routine client, but can be flexible with scheduling if needed. Always open to discuss possibilities for you to ensure your pets best care. I can’t care for other pets in my own home, but am happy to do drop in visits and potentially pet sitting depending on the situation.

I’m a part time educator looking to fill my extra hours taking care of your fur babies. Animals and kids have always been my passion so why not do both. I have lots of energy and patience to keep up with your animals care requirement's. Even on my days as an educator, I take long breaks to ensure my animals have enough one on one time.
About: I have my own dachshund that I take care of on a daily basis but also have 3 other family dogs tha range from a dachshund to a german shepherd. I’ve always helped taken care of the family dogs growing up. I work 3 times a week and have school but my schedule is very flexible and I can adjust it around based on what I have going on. Any pet in my home that’s not mine would be treated like my own pets. They would be taken care of all the time. The same would apply in someone else’s home. I would follow a schedule feeding and letting the pets out just like I do with my own.

“Rebekah was great and easy to book with. Great care of our baby and sent pictures so we would know he was in good loving hands! Thank you - we look forward to booking again- LL”
“Michelle went over and above taking care of Dash. She communicated daily with pictures. She exercised him daily and one day went to a dog park. I would recommend Michelle to my friends without hesitation.”
“Linda took great care of my girl. She also sent pictures and videos to help ease my fears of leaving Bella for the first time with someone other than family. I could not have asked for a better person to watch Bella.”
“Adrienne is awesome! She is so accommodating with drop off and pick ups. My 2 black labs love going to her house! I’m not even out of sight and they’ve already forgotten me! If I have to make last minute changes to my schedule, it doesn’t faze Adrienne at all. I would highly recommend Adrienne as a sitter to anyone. Pat M.”
“This was our first experience with boarding the pups. We were nervous and didn’t think we could find someone to care about them and treat them the way we do. Josh and Kerith exceeded all expectations. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I received multiple updates per day along with pictures. They even have a dog friendly/accessible pool. That’s where my lab spent most of the week. If you want your dogs to have their own vacation while you’re away on yours, send them to Josh and Kerith.”
“Xionella was great! Maple loved hanging out with her and her dogs for her overnight stay. She is professional, prompt, and communicative. She sent us lots of photos/videos throughout the day. Maple was very well cared for and we will definitely be asking Xionella to watch Maple again.”
“Catecha took amazing care of my pup while I took a small getaway. She was absolutely amazing and had all positivity and kindness towards both my little guy and myself. Highly recommend and would use her again!!!”

“Valeria had our two timid babies for 5 days. This was the first time leaving them, but they did great. They enjoyed the fenced yard and that freedom as well as her kids. She kept in touch and sent pictures, and never made me feel like I was bothering her. :) We are already planning to utilize her again for a trip later in the year.”
“Amber is AMAZING! Sent pictures of my girl everyday and gave her the best time. We did a meet up before hand to make sure our babies got along, and they had the best time together. She is a kind and safe person for your dog to stay with!”
“Gingi was the perfect person to watch my dogs for a week while I was out of town. Her calm attitude put my dogs (and my anxiety) right at ease. I was able to meet beforehand and let my dogs get to know her and her home. Her home is great, with a big fenced yard. My dogs loved her lounge chair on the back porch. She sent pictures, videos, and messages everyday to show how well they were doing. I definitely recommend her if you need any dogsitting or boarding, and I will definitely let my dogs stay with her if I need to go out of town soon! Thank you Gingi!!”
“Tom & Nikki were Amazing sitters! They were professional and sent us many pictures and updates throughout the stay.

I highly recommend Tom & Nikki to anyone looking for caring pet sitters!!”

I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, XL American Bullies, and Cane Corsos. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety.

I promise to be dependable, responsible, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently a college student home for the summer and do not have another job, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. If your pet is staying with me, I will be home for most of the day aside from occasional errands or appointments. This allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in a house with a yard and access to a dog park within my neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions provided by owners and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I will provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs.
“Sully loves going to Adam’s place and is always relaxed when coming home. He even eats when he gets home, which is a big sign for him that he enjoyed his stay away from me! Sully takes over Adam’s bed every time and I never worry about the amount of snuggles he’s getting while I’m gone!”
“Our English Cream Golden was well loved and well taken care of by Joey and his family. Joey shared pictures and updates with us during Hopper’s stay and was so accommodating. We highly recommend Joey!”
