Personalized care for your dog or cat - Nicholson
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Nicholson
“Tim has stayed with Caylei multiple times now, and he absolutely loves it. He cries when I make him leave. Caylei is the first sitter he's had who can adequately care for him, as he has special needs, but she manages those so well and she treats him with such kindness. We love Caylei and are so thankful to have found her!”
“Stacy took care of Bear as if he was her own pet and provided us updates throughout his stay. Bear seemed like he was having a ball and was comfortable with her family in their home. We highly recommend Stacy and will definitely book with her again!.”
“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.”
“Chayna was awesome. She was so easy to book with and sent pictures to me. Since this was my puppies first time it was helpful to have pictures of him loving on her, it made me relax that he was gonna be just fine. He came back so very tired which let me know he had so much fun. I will definitely let her watch my little baby again.”
“Great experience overall. They were very accommodating to my schedule, which I really appreciated. Responded to my messages quickly and they made the whole process convenient and stress-free. Highly recommend!”
“JR took such great care of our baby 😀 He is diligent on asking questions about Theos care that we felt he was like family. Could tell dogs bring him great joy and Theo loved all the attention. Thank you JR!”
“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.”
“I was a bit nervous about leaving my Doodle with separation anxiety (for me as well as the dog) but Jonathan made it all good. The "meet and greet" at the dog park assured both of us that his and my dog were going to get along splendidly. I appreciated the great communication and pics that Jonathan sent to reassure me that all was well during the stay.”
“Riley was so accommodating with our travel schedule and took great care of our dog. Was awesome to get pics of him having fun. We will definitely rebook in the future- thanks again!”
“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!”
“Annette is magical! Earl had a wonderful time running in the park, exploring the paths of Annette's backyard, and playing with other dogs. He returned home calm, happy, and exhausted! We are grateful for Annette and her calm approach to caring for our Earl.”
“Jess was so amazing with my feline fur baby!!! He stayed at her house for about 10 days and I got updates and photos from her without having to ask! It was a first for me leaving him in the care of someone and she made it so easy for me to not stress and trust in her. I would highly recommend to anyone with a fur baby like mine. She cares for your pet as if it were her own!”
“This was our first time leaving our fur baby with another person. Bronx boarded at Tevin’s facility for 5 days. We were concerned, but Tevin gave us a tour of his backyard, the place (home) he would be keeping Bronx along with the rest of the dogs. The facility itself is clean. None of the dogs were in distress. Tevin’s wife is also a groomer, so I was also able to have our fur baby bathed before coming home. Tevin sent us pictures, videos, & updates multiple times. Tevin was great & you can tell that he is a natural at what he does. He also shows you his certifications & credentials. I would not hesitate to have him watch out for baby again. This was a great experience for all of us.”
“Becky was awesome! I reached out last minute and was thrilled she was available and even able to accommodate our change in pick- up time. She sent pictures of our dog, which is always appreciated to see how he is doing! Definitely recommend her and will reach out to Becky next time we are in need ?!”

“My husband and I had used another pet sitter a month or so ago, and that person was unavailable. We reached out to Darlene sort of last minute and she was so wonderful!! She understood our needs so quickly and adapted so well! We have a 8 year old cat who can be grumpy (mostly with the kitten), and she was able to gain his trust in no time. She came twice a day for a week to check in on our fur babies, and brought in packages that arrived as well. Everything was so seamless and allowed us to enjoy our time away. Thank you!”
“Caylei is the best! We love her, but more importantly, my temperamental, special needs cat LOVES her! We are so thankful to have found her. She has kept Tim multiple times and I always know he's in the best possible care.”
“Rachel was a wonderful sitter and would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. She was reliable and eased the stress of leaving my senior cat so I could relax and enjoy time with my new grandson.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Kaitlyn. I came home to some happy and relaxed cats so I know they were treated great. She sent me pics of them playing to put my mind at ease. I will definitely be requesting her services again! Thanks, Kaitlyn!”
“Samantha was so amazing! She followed instructions and gave me multiple updates throughout the visits! Provided great pictures. Our cat loved her and made the daily visits great. Thank you so much!”
“We have rebooked Madison and will continue to rebook her as long as she's available! Our pets absolutely adore her, and it's such a comfort to know that they are well taken care of when we're gone. I love the photos we get as well because you can tell how much fun and love everyone gets!”
“Alexis was awesome! One of my pups is a diabetic and it was a huge relief to find someone with the knowledge and ability to care for him and give him his shot of insulin. Highly recommend Alexis!”
“Savanna is a wonderful house sitter! She took great care of my two picky cats that demanded lots of attention and effort to make them eat while I was on a business trip. My senior cat has to be fed wet food several times a day and has digestive issues, so I booked her for house sitting instead of drop-in visits. I left long instruction notes for when & how to feed him, and she kept every little detail I asked for and was always on time for the feeding schedule. She also sent me lots of pics and frequent updates. My apt was very clean and intact when I got back from the trip. Definitely recommend Savannah for any pet sitting & house sitting needs!”
“Crystal was super flexible with timing and followed the very detailed instructions I gave her. She sent me pictures everyday and I really appreciated her communication with each of her drop-in's. Will definitely reach out to Crystal again before looking elsewhere! 100% recommend!”

“I want to thank Claire for taking such good care of my cat, Cala. She played with her, kept her toilet clean and tidy and gave her the affection she needs. Cala was very happy with Claire and I definitely recommend her!”
“That’s hilarious. Yes, Miss Mae is not so much a fan of the walks. I try to make her, but it’s a challenge. Thanks so much for taking great care of everyone! Hope you had a great time at the show!”
“Ivy was fantastic. I really appreciated her attention to detail. She arrived on time for every drop in visit and took meticulous care of my senior dog. I will definitely call on her again in the future!”
“Leah and her partner were wonderful and gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone! I got thoughtful updates and plenty of adorable photos at every visit. My cats seemed happy and comfortable with them and I’ll be rebooking for future trips!”
“Kayla was wonderful! She took care of our Bella like she was her own and Bella loved her. We would’ve have kept her but Bella went to doggy daycare. We will definitely book her again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Nicholson
About: Registered Veterinary Technician who works emergency medicine on the weekends looking for extra work through the week. I can’t stay at your house overnight, but your pet can come to mine. I can also do drop ins pretty regularly. I graduated college with a degree in Veterinary technology and passed my state boards. I work at an emergency clinic in Atlanta on the weekends and right now I’m free through the week. I can try my best to work out whatever you need help with. I’m skilled at giving medications and anything basic your pet may need in home, as well as lifesaving care due to any emergency. I can keep non child friendly cats in a different area, but dogs must be child friendly. I do have cats & ferrets, but they can be kept separately if your animals are not cat & small rodent friendly. I have 2 dogs as well. All of my animals are pet friendly with everything as many animals have come through my care fostering. I'm skilled in exotic pet care as well if necessary. I currently only work weekend overnights in the ER. So, I am home all week caring for my fur babies. As well as yours hopefully! I strive to care for anyone's else's pets exactly as I would my own. When they are with me, they are my babies too. I bring my ER compassion with me when I pet sit, in the ER the pets are without their owners & they are scared on top of being hurt. While my pet sits may not be hurt, I'm aware they could be nervous & unfamiliar. I try to treat them with the upmost compassion & kindness.

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!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes EDD K9 handling, obedience training, working bird hunting dogs, and caring for high-energy working breeds that require structure and exercise. I live on 14.9 acres in Madison County, Georgia, providing dogs with a safe, spacious environment to play, explore, and relax. I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of maintaining routines that help dogs feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs active playtime, supervised socialization, or a calm place to stay, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side job. My daily routine is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and supervision throughout the day. Living on 14.9 acres in Madison County, I provide a safe, spacious environment where dogs can enjoy structured outdoor time and plenty of individual attention. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxed atmosphere, I tailor their care to their specific needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are being cared for by someone whose primary focus is their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dogs enjoy a structured daily schedule that includes supervised outdoor exercise, potty breaks, feeding according to their owner’s instructions, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one interaction. Each dog has access to a clean, secure run for rest and quiet time, while also receiving multiple opportunities throughout the day for exercise and socialization when appropriate. Because we accept only a limited number of dogs, we can closely monitor behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being. This personalized approach helps reduce stress, creates a calmer environment, and allows us to provide the level of care and attention that dogs deserve while their families are away. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home-away-from-home experience where every dog is treated like a valued guest rather than just another boarding reservation.

About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs.

Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs

I work remote and so dogs get attention/company all day when they stay here. There’s usually multiple play/fetch sessions outside with the dogs every day and neighborhood walks throughout the week. The dogs enjoy a large fenced in back yard and free run of the house whenever they’re inside (after their paws get wiped down). Dogs here will enjoy plenty of attention from myself and my golden retrievers throughout the day.

About: Over the years, my husband and I have had several pets, from cats to dogs to lizards to chinchillas. At one time we had 9 indoor cats. We have a soft heart and it’s difficult to turn away a stray. Any time we see a stray in our neighborhood, we do what we can to find the owner. Our two dogs have accompanied us on many day hikes and they both love the outdoors as much as we do. One of our dogs, Rosie, was a stray that we took in at 1-year-old. She is now 16. We adopted our other dog, Clayton, at the age of one. He is now 12. We have deeply loved all of our pets and look forward to new pets in the future. The bond between humans and animals can be so special. It is something I cherish. I look forward to caring for your fury family member! I am a Yoga Teacher and teach only a few classes per week. I am also an artist. I have a lot of flexibility in my daytime schedule to care for and/or walk your pet. I am a responsible and reliable person. I make sure to do everything I can to create a safe, trusting, and loving environment while in the presence of your sweet babies. While I am with your pet, my top priority is their safety & happiness.
About: I have three years of pet care experience, including three years at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and two years as a veterinary assistant. I'm skilled in caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior animals needing extra attention. My veterinary background allows me to confidently handle medications, special diets, and recognize signs of illness. I’m also experienced with anxious or reactive pets and always prioritize their safety and comfort. What sets me apart is my blend of medical knowledge and compassionate, hands-on care. Pet care is an important and consistent part of my weekly routine. I currently work part-time as a veterinary assistant at a rescue hospital while completing my college degree in animal bioscience, which has deepened both my practical skills and understanding of animal health. Throughout college, I’ve also fostered cats, providing them with daily care, enrichment, and medical support as needed. Before that, I spent three years working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I helped manage feeding, playtime, and behavioral monitoring. Whether through work, fostering, or my studies, caring for animals has always been a central and rewarding part of my daily life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable and sticking to their usual routines. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I’m experienced with administering medications if needed and keeping the home tidy and secure while you're away. For dog walks, I focus on safe, engaging walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and needs. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so your pets feel safe and happy in their familiar environment.

“Annette is magical! Earl had a wonderful time running in the park, exploring the paths of Annette's backyard, and playing with other dogs. He returned home calm, happy, and exhausted! We are grateful for Annette and her calm approach to caring for our Earl.”
“Jess was so amazing with my feline fur baby!!! He stayed at her house for about 10 days and I got updates and photos from her without having to ask! It was a first for me leaving him in the care of someone and she made it so easy for me to not stress and trust in her. I would highly recommend to anyone with a fur baby like mine. She cares for your pet as if it were her own!”
“This was our first time leaving our fur baby with another person. Bronx boarded at Tevin’s facility for 5 days. We were concerned, but Tevin gave us a tour of his backyard, the place (home) he would be keeping Bronx along with the rest of the dogs. The facility itself is clean. None of the dogs were in distress. Tevin’s wife is also a groomer, so I was also able to have our fur baby bathed before coming home. Tevin sent us pictures, videos, & updates multiple times. Tevin was great & you can tell that he is a natural at what he does. He also shows you his certifications & credentials. I would not hesitate to have him watch out for baby again. This was a great experience for all of us.”
“Becky was awesome! I reached out last minute and was thrilled she was available and even able to accommodate our change in pick- up time. She sent pictures of our dog, which is always appreciated to see how he is doing! Definitely recommend her and will reach out to Becky next time we are in need ?!”
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds for my entire life. I have always loved animals and grew up learning how to care for them. I also have rescue volunteer and foster experience so I have cared for all kinds of dogs! I’m currently working remote, so I am home all day to care for and spend time with your pets. I am also available for drop-ins and walks at any time! I am happy to do whatever you need to ensure that your pet is well cared for and entertained! I take my own dogs on walks every week!
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.
“Cayla was very nice and took great care of our little pup, Cinnamon. She sent pictures regularly showing Cinnamon doing well and having a good time with her resting, playing, and walking. We thought Cayla did a great job and Cinnamon was happy and healthy when we returned.”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and lifelong experience caring for them. I’ve been watching and caring for dogs since I was 10, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same love and attention I’d give my own. I am a nurse but only work 3 days a week, and I’d love to help out on my days off! I have weekends off :) I provide safe and attentive care for walks and drop-in visits. I always follow your dog’s routine, ensure secure entry and exits, and keep them on a safe leash at all times. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy levels, and comfort, making sure they feel happy, calm, and well cared for while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and peace of mind are my top priorities
“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!”
