It was our first time leaving Pimento while we were out of town and I was definitely nervous about it, but Gingi was absolutely amazing! She sent updates with what their days were like, complete with multiple pictures and even some videos. Pimento is a very shy pup but was opening up by the end of the day. We will always try to book with Gingi first if we are out of town, she is a dream!

Based on the fact that my pup is EXHAUSTED (and maybe a bit depressed he had to leave) after his week at Adrienne’s must mean he had a great time! Adrienne was always quick to respond and sent pictures when asked. Her house has a great set-up for dogs, and you can tell she really loves dogs! Brutus will be back to play next time we’re in need of a sitter!!

Xiomy took amazing care of my dog. She kept me updated every day with the sweetest photos, and I always felt at ease knowing my pup was happy and loved. Her dog Elma is incredibly gentle and became the perfect playmate — they bonded right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I truly recommend her!

What a wonderful person to trust with my pets while traveling. Xionella is a very gentle and caring pet sitter. Both of my small dogs stayed with her for almost a week and were relaxed and happy on pickup day. She sent frequent updates and some of the most cute pictures I have ever seen of my pups. I recommend booking with Xionella and I know I will for my next trip.

Russel is amazing! Bacon stayed with Russel for 4 days vs and one of those days we picked him up for a quick doggy play date. When we returned Bacon was ecstatic to see Russel again! Russel even had him dressed in the Jammie’s we brought for him on a cold morning. Russel went above & beyond & that was very clear. Russel is quick to respond & sends lots of pictures!

About: Hi, I'm Alexa! I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have cared for many of my own, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve provided dependable pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families in my hometown, earning their trust through consistent, attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own—prioritizing their comfort, safety, and happiness at all times. As a college student pursuing a degree in the medical field, I bring a heightened level of awareness, responsibility, and knowledge when it comes to overall care and well-being. I am detail-oriented, reliable, and committed to maintaining routines that keep pets feeling secure and stress-free. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I provide a calm, nurturing environment that pet owners can feel confident in. I ADORE ALL FUR BABIES! As a college student currently taking online courses, I have a very flexible and consistent daily routine that allows me to prioritize your pets care throughout the day. My schedule gives me the ability to be present for feedings, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins without feeling rushed. I don't have weekends marked as a guarantee, but I may be available and will always be open to working something out, so don't be afraid to reach out! 🩷 I care for pets like they’re my own and try to keep them as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I stick to their usual routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else they’re used to—so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. I also make sure to keep things clean and send updates with photos. If I’m caring for pets in my apartment, I make sure they have a safe, clean space and get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and what they need so they feel happy and relaxed.

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 taken care of both cats and dogs growing up. I have always enjoyed playing with them and going out on walks. In addition I have experience bathing, grooming, and feeding them. Moreover I have volunteer experience cleaning up after and feeding animals at Sweet Olive Farm. I am working part time, however I should be free most weekend days for check ins or dog walking. I will also be available on weekends for dog sitting. Having pets growing up I would always ensure they had enough water and would feed them on their regular schedule. But most importantly I believe all pets need enrichment time. For house sitting I will uphold this standard. For walks I will make sure they get to sniff to their hearts content.

About: Hi, my name is Kenzie. I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m all about creating a calm, happy space where pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their people are away. What makes me different is how naturally I connect with animals and how much real experience I have. I’ve pet‑sat for lots of families with all kinds of pets and personalities, and I’m really good at helping them feel comfortable quickly. I also babysit, so families trust me to be responsible and respectful in their home. I’m easygoing, reliable, and I always make sure every pet gets plenty of love and attention.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

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.

Laraine was very good house sitting with our elderly, blind cat. Since he lost his sight, he has been skittish around new people. Even though she had to give him daily oral medication, he was comfortable enough with her that he would come to her for rubs. We plan to use her again. Her working from home is a plus.

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.

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!

About: I grew up with a house that was always full of animals. Dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, fish, even pet rats; I've cared for many kinds of fur babies. My family has had many breeds of dogs that I've been close to and helped raise/care for including German Shepherds, Boxers, Pitties, Terroirs, Goldens, Spaniels, Weimaraners and shelter mixes. All animals have a unique personality, and I know that some pets may take more time to adjust to a new friend than others.I have confidence that I can walk, bathe, feed and even help administer some medications for your family pet. I am a firm believer that all animals deserve love and affection. I currently have a cat, Lil Guy (crazy orange cat) and a dog, Dave (black lab/lap dog). I understand that our pets are incredibly important, and that we all want the best for them. I will treat your animals with just as much love, compassion, patience, and affection as I would my own. I am new to the area, and am looking for work that can that can sustain my financial needs. I would LOVE it if helping to care for pets became that opportunity. I am happy to come by and take your pet for a walk, a bath, a play date at the dog park, grab a bite to eat, see the vet, play with the cat, clean the litter box, and anything in between.

About: After the passing of my senior dog, Fezzik, I felt the need to share my care for pets with others in my community. With experience volunteering at animal shelters and caring for senior animals, I can be the attentive caregiver your furry companion needs! I currently am starting my career in online teaching and content creation, which means I work from home and have a flexible schedule. With frequent walks already built into my schedule, I am a good fit for pets of any activity level! I live in a gated community with ample space for leashed walks and time in the grass for pets who are boarding. I maintain a clean, second-story apartment which includes a balcony and dog bed. I have my own transportation for at-home visits as well.

Xionella did a great job caring for our 2 dogs during the day while my wife was out of town. Our dogs were walked multiple times a day and got along perfectly with Xionella’s 2 dogs. We were sent pictures throughout the day and notified of anything of concern. I would highly recommend Xionella and will use her in the future.

About: What sets me apart is the level of real care and attention I give every pet. I treat them like family, not just a job. I’m patient, observant, and experienced with different personalities, including energetic puppies and calm senior pets. I can help reinforce basic puppy training like routines, potty habits, and behavior, while also providing gentle, attentive care for older pets who need extra comfort, medication reminders, or slower-paced attention. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I prioritize consistency, reliability, and attention. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and care they need. I’m organized and flexible, so whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or multiple visits throughout the day, I make sure pets are never rushed or overlooked. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I give each visit my full focus and make it a regular, dependable part of my week. I provide care based on each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and scheduled feeding. I monitor behavior closely to make sure pets are adjusting well and getting the care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets in their familiar space and sticking to their usual routine, including feeding, walks, litter or potty care, playtime, and any specific instructions like medication or special needs. I respect your home, keep everything clean, and provide updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

She was so easy to talk with and kept in touch with updates and photo. She went out of her way to make Millie feel comfortable and it worked. I think Millie would have moved in with her if I needed her to! I won’t hesitate to contact her again. She’s a superb choice for any person to wants/needs o leave their pet in a loving and caring home. Couldn’t think of anything she could do better❣️

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 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: Hi, my name is Kenzie. I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m all about creating a calm, happy space where pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their people are away. What makes me different is how naturally I connect with animals and how much real experience I have. I’ve pet‑sat for lots of families with all kinds of pets and personalities, and I’m really good at helping them feel comfortable quickly. I also babysit, so families trust me to be responsible and respectful in their home. I’m easygoing, reliable, and I always make sure every pet gets plenty of love and attention. I just graduated from UGA, so I have a lot of free time right now and would dedicate all of it to your pet. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so taking care of them never feels like “work” to me. I’m flexible throughout the day and can easily fit walks, playtime, feeding, and whatever routine your pet needs into my schedule. When I’m taking care of pets in a client’s home, I keep things super simple and respectful. I follow whatever routine you already have in place, keep your space clean, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and not stressed. I’m good at sticking to feeding times, walks, litter box care, and any little details you want done a certain way. I’m calm, patient, and I always let your pet set the pace. At my place, pets have plenty of room to hang out, explore, and get cozy. It’s a clean, safe space with no chaos, and I’m always paying attention to doors, windows, and anything that could be a safety issue. I love having animals around, so they get lots of attention, cuddles, and a relaxed environment where they can just be themselves. Your pet’s comfort is the main thing I focus on, and I make sure they feel happy and secure the whole time.

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.

I am happy to help with pets who are more active and pets who just need someone to give them attention and be a comforting presence. I work with pets of all sizes and have lots of experience with senior pets who need more medical attention- This experience includes giving shots, pills, and applying topical medication! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care and play with your fur babies! I have a flexible schedule when it comes to fitting in walks and check-ins, I am usually working on weekend mornings and afternoons, but usually only for 4-6 hours at a time! I am currently unable to take care of your pets in my home due to a dog of my own who gets stressed around new animals! I can care for your pets in whatever ways they need, whether it be giving them oodles of attention, talking or singing to them, or simply just be in the room with them as a safe presence to ease yours and their minds!

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 love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby!

I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

I’ve always been surrounded by dogs growing up, but having my own has taught me so much about love, responsibility, and the joy pets bring to our lives. Even with a busy schedule, I make it a priority to give Patch the care and attention he needs. We enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, and plenty of playtime. Patch is a friendly, social pup who gets along well with both dogs and cats. He’s even great at being gentle with smaller animals, making him the perfect companion for meeting new friends! I absolutely adore dogs, and it would be my pleasure to help care for your furry family member. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions—I’d love to learn more about your pet’s needs! My husband started a new job, so I am currently between jobs and trying to find full time employment. So, I have a lot of free time and I am easily able to accommodate your pets needs! I have a 2BR apartment with a nice dog park and one sweet pup to keep your pet company. We have plenty of room and I can easily crate your dog if needed!

While juggling my studies and pet care, I ensure that I dedicate several hours each day to look after my dog, as well as any other pets I have the chance to care for. My dog’s day includes multiple walks throughout the day, along with an evening trip to the dog park. Any dog I care for will also enjoy their own outdoor walk or playtime!

About: I’ve grown up with animals! I’ve always had a cat to take care of! I got my first kitten when I was around 5 years old! ever since I’ve had an amazing connection with all animals but especially cats more than anything. I have watched over dogs many of times. I can handle a big dog but I am mainly used to small/medium dogs ahah:) I’ve currently have dealt with puppies and them being sick! I have learned many new things along the way! I am so excited to learn more things about animals as I watch over them. I have only ever pet sit once through rover, but I can assure you I have plenty of experience and knowledge when it comes to animals! Your dog/cat would be so lucky to have me watch over them:) I currently work a full time job, I usually work 10-4 Tuesday-Saturday I am currently in school working on getting closer to being a veterinarian assistant:)) my schooling is completely online though so I can bring it wherever I go. I am majoring in Animal Science! At my house I have a big back yard so the dogs go out can can play with lots of land and room to run and use the restroom! we no longer cage our 2 dogs, we also have gotten chickens and ducks:)) so please beware if you send your dog to my house to let me know before hand how your dog is with other animals and around farm animals! your dog could sleep inside with the other doggies or inside the sunroom! when I am gone! I tend to walk my dogs daily! I also have 2 kittens I am leash training so if your cat likes to go on walks I can work with that too!

I worked at a veterinary office as well as multiple doggy daycares. I also possess everything needed to fully bathe and de-shed a dog including a forced air dryer and cologne. I took a brief break from the field to work with my family, I’m very excited to start working with dogs again! I am currently not working outside of rover and am able to provide full time care for your pets. I myself have cared for high needs animals and understand some babies need more care than others. Im happy to provide whatever you need to make your pets comfortable! I have worked with a variety of dogs of all temperaments and sizes (so I’m not afraid of your Pittie or your Rottweiler) and I know meeting strangers is scary, and I’m more than willing to take the time to build some trust with your animal. And as far as the care while they’re with me, that’s all up to you. I will provide as close up or laid back care as you need for your home.

About: I have loved dogs, my entire life, both big and small. I do specialize in large breeds, but I love the little babies too. When it comes to my pets, I put their needs and desires before my own. I just can’t help it. They are my children. Animals are everything to me. In 2018 a person took my beautiful, precious angel pitbull away from me simply out of fear and misunderstandings of the breed. I will never forget the day he was harmed. I am now a pitbull advocate and I’ll advocate for any other animal, period. At my full time job, I have countless opportunities to love on dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. They know exactly who to come to for delicious treats! Getting the big time bonus by being around all the dogs while I work, helps my day at work go great!!!! I work full time but will care for your special family member any time any day. I will come nights, weekends, mornings and holidays. You name it, I will be there ahead of time and stay as long as I am needed. Animals are everything to me as they make my heart fulfilled. I am very trustworthy and respectful of people and animals. I put the safety and well being of any animal at the top of my priorities list! I enjoy providing toys and any special treats at the owners discression. I love cuddles, kisses and my heart melts when I see a waggy tail.

It was our first time leaving Pimento while we were out of town and I was definitely nervous about it, but Gingi was absolutely amazing! She sent updates with what their days were like, complete with multiple pictures and even some videos. Pimento is a very shy pup but was opening up by the end of the day. We will always try to book with Gingi first if we are out of town, she is a dream!

Based on the fact that my pup is EXHAUSTED (and maybe a bit depressed he had to leave) after his week at Adrienne’s must mean he had a great time! Adrienne was always quick to respond and sent pictures when asked. Her house has a great set-up for dogs, and you can tell she really loves dogs! Brutus will be back to play next time we’re in need of a sitter!!

Xiomy took amazing care of my dog. She kept me updated every day with the sweetest photos, and I always felt at ease knowing my pup was happy and loved. Her dog Elma is incredibly gentle and became the perfect playmate — they bonded right away. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I truly recommend her!

They send the BEST photo and video updates and take such good care of my pup! I never have to worry about leaving him with them because I know he’s in great hands. They’ve also been wonderful at accommodating last minute changes to my schedule when I’ve been traveling.

What a wonderful person to trust with my pets while traveling. Xionella is a very gentle and caring pet sitter. Both of my small dogs stayed with her for almost a week and were relaxed and happy on pickup day. She sent frequent updates and some of the most cute pictures I have ever seen of my pups. I recommend booking with Xionella and I know I will for my next trip.

Russel is amazing! Bacon stayed with Russel for 4 days vs and one of those days we picked him up for a quick doggy play date. When we returned Bacon was ecstatic to see Russel again! Russel even had him dressed in the Jammie’s we brought for him on a cold morning. Russel went above & beyond & that was very clear. Russel is quick to respond & sends lots of pictures!

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: What sets me apart is the level of real care and attention I give every pet. I treat them like family, not just a job. I’m patient, observant, and experienced with different personalities, including energetic puppies and calm senior pets. I can help reinforce basic puppy training like routines, potty habits, and behavior, while also providing gentle, attentive care for older pets who need extra comfort, medication reminders, or slower-paced attention. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I prioritize consistency, reliability, and attention. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and care they need. I’m organized and flexible, so whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or multiple visits throughout the day, I make sure pets are never rushed or overlooked. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I give each visit my full focus and make it a regular, dependable part of my week. I provide care based on each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and scheduled feeding. I monitor behavior closely to make sure pets are adjusting well and getting the care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets in their familiar space and sticking to their usual routine, including feeding, walks, litter or potty care, playtime, and any specific instructions like medication or special needs. I respect your home, keep everything clean, and provide updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Bailey was great, she updated and sent photos everyday. it was difficult for me to leave my babies and she made the process seamless- drop off, pick up and everything in between. she was very reassuring. will definitely recommend to others, and if ever needed, i’d rebook with her. she was great!!
