“Tracy and her family were so kind and attentive with our very senior, blind, special needs boy. Her attention to detail with his schedule and patience with him was so appreciated. We were able to go on a week long vacation and know he was getting the snuggles and attention he is used to at home. I cannot ever thank her enough for taking such great care of sweet boy. Her dog Geordie is such a sweetheart as well. Highly recommend. Thanks again Tracy!”

About: I’ve loved being around animals for as long as I can remember! Throughout college, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs while they were away and have also kitten sat, giving me experience with both dogs and cats. Growing up, I had a dog with diabetes, so I’m comfortable administering insulin and understand the importance of following a pet’s care routine closely. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly home with plenty of room for your pet to relax and explore. I just moved home from college and while my parents aren’t quite ready for the long-term commitment of having a pet of our own, I’d love the opportunity to provide a safe, caring, and fun temporary home for your furry family member through Rover! I’m currently working in person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and have the rest of the days of the week to play with your furry friends! Your pet will have plenty of space to feel comfortable and stay active during their stay! My home has a large backyard and front yard, providing lots of room for supervised outdoor time and play. Inside, my home also offers plenty of space for pets to relax, explore, and feel at home.
“Julie! Thank you so much for watching Milo. I really appreciate it, especially with going above and beyond taking our trash out for us on trash night. Definitely recommend, and will book with Julie again!”
“Veronica took care of our 4 dogs for 10 days and did a wonderful job. She was always on time, kept us updated on how the gang was doing and made sure each pet stayed on their routine. We received many pics of the pets and you could see everyone was well taken care of during our trip. Will definitely use Veronica in the future!”
“Christina did an amazing job! Every day I got pictures of my cats and made me feel so much better about leaving them. She even gave me a heads up when my older cat had something going on with his eye. I will 100% be using her again. She takes care of your pets like they are her own.”
About: I am an avid animal lover! I have always owned a pet (dogs/cats) and couldn't imagine my life without one! I worked at a kennel for 4 years and I've always pet sit for friends. I started pet sitting professionally 4 years ago. I had a beagle who was almost 16 years old so I have lots of experience with senior dogs. Now I have a puppy so I’m definitely used to puppies! I don't do pet sitting just for a job. I do pet sitting because animals are truly my passion. What is more fun than playing with precious doggies to and loving on them and receiving their unconditional love! It's very rewarding. I treat your pets as I would want mine treated! I will send you pics and/or videos of your baby while you are away also. I look forward to meeting you!
About: I have experience house sitting for people with animals including dogs of all ages (senior to puppy), cats, goats, chickens, and even gerbils. I am able to work with you to meet the needs of all pets within your household. You can enjoy your vacation knowing your home and pets will be in good hands with me. On the weekends I am available (for the most part) to be at your home full time. During the weekdays I am able to care for pets in the morning, come check in at lunch, then for the entire evening/night. I treat both pets and the homes that I am in just like I would my own - with love, respect, and integrity. You can count on me to follow all instructions left for me exactly as they are written.
About: I have taken care of animals of all sorts since I was a teenager. Dogs, cats, Rabbits, and goats and the list goes on. With my ten years of experience I have gotten to love and care for so many animals. I strive to provide the best care for all animals. I currently have a lot of free time and want to utilize that free time to play or entertain your pets. I am available most days of the week and weekends. I always pay close attention to your pups as if they are my own. I have two dogs at home, and a cat. I can walk your dog as much as they need and make sure they are getting optimal care.
“Morgan was so easy and sweet to communicate with—she took pics and videos of my little guy every day and left the funniest notes about each of her visits. 10/10 would recommend Morgan for all of your pet-sitting needs…she was professional, fun, and actually spent time with my cat when she was there! Will for sure use her services again.”
“Jose was such a great care giver to my dog Mack! He took great care of him, posted pictures and called with a concern. Jose took the time to come visit Mack twice prior to me being out of town and it made Mack very comfortable with him. I will definitely use Jose again!”
“Carlie, is OUR FAVORITE CAT SITTER EVER!! She stayed over with our cats for 3 nights, she followed every instruction I left for her. Most importantly, she kept them entertained and safe. She communicated with us and sent us pictures and videos so we could see our babies. We are so thankful for her, we will definitely use her services again…and recommend her to everyone 100%!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Raymond
About: We have three miniature schnauzers and a medium size Pharaoh hound that we adopted a few years ago. We have been the go to pet sitters for friends and family members for several years. Our family loves dogs and when they stay with us, we treat them like our family. Your babies will be well loved in our home. I work out of the house a couple days a week. Usually on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a flexible schedule and work at home often. When I am not home, our adult daughter is usually here and also helps with the dogs. We have full family participation in the care of our pup friends. I can care for your small dogs in my home. I have a large, fully fenced yard so there is room to run and have fun!
About: Thank you for visiting my page! My name is Michael, and I have been living with, and taking care of dogs my whole life. Growing up on a horse farm, with many dogs, I developed an unconditional love for animals, but especially dogs! It has been my dream to be able to take care of dogs for a living and I am so grateful for the opportunity and privilege to do just that! Your dog(s) will have just under 4 acres of fully fenced property to roam and enjoy, including access to the pool if they enjoy swimming! They will have their very own air conditioned room with a dog door to their own private deck to enjoy any time, day or night! Their room also comes with 24 hour camera access so you can check in on them whenever you want! I am home 24/7 to make sure your dog(s) are safe and enjoying their stay. My family has 3 bulldogs of our own. They are very sweet and fun loving pups! They love having new dogs over to play with, but if your dog prefers their own personal space, my dogs have a separate fenced area to enjoy. My dogs get multiple walks throughout the property daily, then spend the majority of the day lounging outside in the sun or under one of the many shaded areas on our property. Your dog(s) can walk with the pack or they can be walked privately. I will be with them at all times so they can let me know if they would like to roam, play or lounge outside or if they’d prefer to relax in their room or on their private deck. I am home with the dogs 24/7! We start the day with breakfast and a nice long walk around the property. My dogs tend to enjoy spending the rest of the morning lounging outside, but your dog(s) can let me know what they would like to do. We can play fetch, go swimming, lounge, or they can just roam. If they prefer their own space, I can put my dogs in their separate fenced in area so your dog(s) can comfortably enjoy the rest of the property. If they get too hot, I can put them up in their air conditioned room where they still have outdoor access through their doggy door if they want to relax on their private deck and enjoy the view. I like to take the pack on another walk in the early afternoon in the wooded area where it is cooler, and then we go on one more walk after dinner once it cools down before bed. The important thing is nothing is set in stone. I will allow your dog(s) to let me know what they want to do and I will keep you updated with messages and pictures as much or as little as you like. I have nearly 4 acres of fully fenced property. Half open and half wooded, with plenty of shaded areas for the dogs to lounge. Your dog(s) will have their own air conditioned room with a bed and a dog door that takes them onto their own private deck to enjoy the view. You will also have 24 hour camera access to check in on your dog(s) anytime. My 3 dogs are very friendly, but I understand some dogs may prefer or need to stay separated. In this case, my dogs have their own fenced in area so your dog(s) can still safely and comfortably enjoy the property.

“Katie did an excellent job providing doggy daycare services for Maximus. She is a great communicator, very responsive, and kept me comfortable throughout the process. It is clear that she is truly passionate about dogs and genuinely loves caring for them. Her dog Louie is also very sweet, which made the experience even better. Katie has a beautiful fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and enjoy themselves safely. I would definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone caring, reliable, and dog-loving to watch their pup.”
“I’ve had a great experience with Jennifer! She always makes both me and my dog feel very welcomed and comfortable.

I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”
“BOOK HER☺️ my little old dog can be really particular and hard to deal with but Emmelin is so patient and sweet with him! I truly don’t know what we would do without her doggy daycare.

About: I have had all my life for the last 30 years I've had Rottweilers and for the last 18 years I've competed with them in obedience protection and tracking. I am a licensed AKC temperament test judge for all breeds. My house is dog friendly with a fenced in backyard sitting on 1 acre. I'm semi retired so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends. If your dog needs training, I'm also available for this as I am a professional Dog Trainer and AKC temperament test Judge. Now a days I'm not competing so much which allows me to spend more time at home. Your dogs will be spoiled here and may not want to go home. I like to play with them and also stimulate there natural instincts. For some that may be tracking for others that may be problem-solving with such things like puzzles made for dogs.

About: The level of personal care and attention I give, every animal I care for is treated like family. I don’t just feed and walk pets; I learn their routines, notice the little things, and adapt to their personality and needs. Whether it’s a nervous dog who needs quiet companionship or a playful dog who craves engagement. I create a calm, familiar environment that helps pets feel safe. Working remotely allows me the flexibility and presence to give pets the attention they need throughout the day.

I’m here, fully available to keep pets comfortable, engaged, and safe in a calm home environment. Whether pets stay with me or I care for them in their own home, my focus is always on creating a calm, familiar, and loving environment. In my home, I offer a safe space where animals are free to relax, and play. I maintain their usual routines as closely as possible with mealtimes, walks, medications, and quiet time. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat their space with respect and care, ensuring everything stays clean and organized. I follow your instructions closely, giving your pet the comfort of their routine and surroundings while you’re away. Whether it’s overnight stays or daily visits, I aim to keep things stress-free for both you and your pet.

“Valeria is the best!! I really can’t say enough good things about her. We use her services to walk our Doberman, Tag, and she is so good with him.

About: As an experienced dog & house rabbit owner and credentialed veterinary technician (FL), I understand that every pet and species needs vary. I am excited to work you as a pet parent to find out what works for you and your pets individual needs. Your dog will be with someone consistently thru their stay with potty breaks, walks, cuddles, and playtime as they enjoy. My partner works from home and my time is spent caring for dogs, tending our garden, and painting pet portrait commissions. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog (yellow lab) that can keep your dog company or be kept separate if needed. We can easily accommodate a crate in quiet spaces or more central based on what your pet is used to. My goal is to make my home feel as familiar as their own. I do require all dogs staying in my home to, at minimum, be up-to-date on their Rabies vaccination and be on flea prevention (I’m happy to provide resources where these are accessible if needed). Other vaccines and parasite preventions are highly recommended. Beginning August 2026: all dogs will be also required to have an up-to-date Distemper / Parvo (DAPP) vaccination as well.

Here’s how I integrate pet care into my life, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve: Daily Routine Morning Care: Early Start: My day begins early, allowing me to attend to pets that need morning care, such as feeding, administering medication, and providing exercise or playtime. Routine Check-Ins: I schedule check-ins for pets that require multiple visits throughout the day, ensuring they have consistent care and companionship. Midday Break: Flexible Midday Visits: I allocate time during the midday to visit pets, whether it’s for a walk, a feeding session, or a quick check to make sure everything is okay. This is particularly beneficial for pets with separation anxiety or those needing frequent potty breaks. Client Communication: I use this time to update pet owners with photos and notes about their pets, keeping them informed and reassured. Afternoon and Evening Care: Extended Visits: For pets requiring longer visits, such as those needing more exercise or playtime, I schedule these in the afternoon or early evening. Night Routine: Evening care often includes feeding, medication administration, and ensuring pets are settled in for the night. Schedule Coordination: At the start of each week, I plan my schedule to accommodate all pet care appointments, ensuring there are no conflicts and that each pet receives dedicated time. Client Consultations: I reserve time for new client consultations and meet-and-greets with pets to understand their needs and establish a bond before starting care. Regular Clients: Consistent Visits: For regular clients, I set up a consistent weekly routine that aligns with their needs, whether it’s daily walks, bi-weekly check-ins, or weekly deep-cleaning of litter boxes. Adaptability: My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to any changes or additional needs that arise, ensuring I can always provide the necessary care. Personal Time: Self-Care and Downtime: I prioritize self-care and downtime to recharge, ensuring I am always at my best when caring for pets. This balance helps me maintain high energy levels and enthusiasm for my work. Professional Development: I also allocate time for professional development, such as attending pet care workshops, training sessions, or first aid courses to continuously improve my skills. Flexibility and Commitment On-Call Availability: My business structure allows me to be on-call for emergencies or last-minute requests, providing peace of mind for pet owners. Client-Centered Approach: I tailor my schedule to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring their pets receive personalized and attentive care. With my ability to manage my own schedule, I can prioritize pet care seamlessly, ensuring each pet receives the highest level of attention and love. This flexibility and dedication set me apart, allowing me to provide exceptional service to every pet and pet owner. When it comes to caring for pets, safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities. Here's how I ensure these elements are maintained, whether the pets are in my home or their own home. Caring for Pets in My Home Safe Environment: Pet-Proofed Areas: My home is thoroughly pet-proofed, with all hazardous materials out of reach, secure fencing, and no small objects that could be swallowed. Designated Pet Zones: I have designated areas for pets, ensuring they have a safe and comfortable space to relax, play, and sleep. Comfort and Well-being: Comfortable Bedding: Each pet has access to clean, comfortable bedding and cozy spots where they can rest. Climate Control: I maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, ensuring pets are neither too hot nor too cold. Play and Enrichment: I provide a variety of toys and activities to keep pets mentally stimulated and physically active. Health and Hygiene: Regular Cleaning: My home is kept clean and hygienic, with regular sanitation of feeding areas, litter boxes, and play spaces. Disease Prevention: I ensure that all pets are up-to-date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention to maintain a healthy environment. Emergency Preparedness: First Aid Kit: I keep a well-stocked pet first aid kit readily available. Veterinary Contacts: I have established relationships with local veterinarians and know the nearest emergency clinics. Caring for Pets in Clients' Homes Trust and Communication: Initial Meet and Greet: I conduct a thorough meet-and-greet session with pets and their owners to build trust and understand the pet's routine and preferences. Regular Updates: I provide regular updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pet’s well-being and activities. Maintaining Routine: Adhering to Schedules: I follow the pet’s existing routine, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and bedtime, to minimize stress and maintain consistency. Personalized Care Plans: I create personalized care plans based on the pet’s specific needs and preferences, ensuring they receive tailored attention. Safety and Security: Secure Entrances and Exits: I ensure all doors and gates are securely closed and locked to prevent pets from escaping. Pet-Proofing Checks: I perform a quick safety check of the home to identify and address any potential hazards. Health and Hygiene: Clean Feeding Areas: I keep feeding areas clean and wash bowls after each meal. Litter Box Maintenance: I regularly scoop and deep-clean litter boxes, ensuring a clean and odor-free environment. Medication Administration: I administer any required medications accurately and on schedule, with careful handling to ensure the pet’s comfort and safety. Emergency Preparedness: Emergency Contacts: I keep a list of emergency contacts, including the pet’s veterinarian and nearby emergency clinics. First Aid Skills: I am trained in pet first aid and CPR, ready to handle any emergencies calmly and efficiently. Creating a Nurturing Environment Emotional Well-being: Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior and build a trusting relationship with the pet. Affection and Attention: I provide plenty of affection and attention, ensuring pets feel loved and secure. Physical Activity: Regular Exercise: I ensure pets get regular exercise tailored to their energy levels and health needs, whether it's walks, playtime, or interactive games. Outdoor Safety: When taking pets outdoors, I use secure leashes and harnesses, and I choose safe, pet-friendly areas for walks and play. Mental Stimulation: Enrichment Activities: I provide a variety of enrichment activities, such as puzzle toys, interactive games, and new experiences, to keep pets mentally engaged. Routine and Stability: I maintain a stable environment with consistent routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. By prioritizing safety, trust, and a nurturing environment, I ensure that each pet in my care feels secure, happy, and well-loved, whether they are in my home or their own.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind! I’ve had neighbors, friends, and family dogs. We always have FUN and I always enjoy their company! I am currently a Stay at home Mom/Student. I am looking for an extra income doing something I love and enjoy…animals! Free all days of the week. I have a big fenced in yard and I can crate your dog(s) if needed. But I am home most days. I am able to walk dogs if they enjoy walks as well as playing in a big yard.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I currently have two dogs of my own and understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and consistent care. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve fostered two puppies, helping with feeding, potty training, socialization, and daily care. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for friends and family, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship while owners were away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet care fits easily into my schedule! I am employed by the school system, which gives me a very flexible schedule during the summer, holidays, and school breaks. During those times, I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and playtime. When school is in session, I am available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends, making it easy to provide reliable care for your pets when you need it most. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have plenty of exercise, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and lots of love and attention. I follow any instructions provided by the owner to keep pets on their normal schedule and ensure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also love sending photo updates so owners can stay connected with their pets while they’re away.
About: I grew up with a Siberian Husky at home as a kid and have helped foster and care for dogs of all different sizes over the years. Currently a proud dog-dad of a Shih Tzu who I raised since he was just a month old! I work remotely from home with a very flexible schedule so I am available for drop-ins throughout the day and evening. Willing to help out as needed. Whether a dog or a cat, I believe every pet has their own personalized needs. Some enjoy playtime more than others while some can prefer their own personal space. It’s up to the sitters to get to know them well enough to meet those needs.
About: Hi! I took a break but now I’m back, though with limited availability! My name's Taylor, and I've never owned a dog (my dad is deathly allergic) but I have dog-sat for several family friends since I was ten! As long as I am given clear instructions then I can roll with anything. I have been working retail for several years, and have just recently started an online degree program with LSU. You might recognize me from the appliance department at Lowe’s of Newnan! Lowes is my full time job, so my availability can be limited. Please request well in advance!! I’m eager to learn and I’m excited to take care of your sweet furbabies! See you soon! I used to mainly house sit, but going a different direction this time around! Primarily offering dog walking and drop ins, I am available around my full time job’s hours. Unfortunately it is retail, and those hours can be very inconsistent, but I am happy to accommodate as much as I can! When sitting or walking, I have a good habit of being very attentive to all surroundings. No need to worry about your pup when they’re with me!

“Tenisha and Eric were the answer to my prayer. My little fur baby, Snowball, is somewhat spoiled and I'm very particular about his caregiver. My wife and I generally take several extended vacations each year and, In the past, we have had to cancel or end our vacation plans early because Snowball would not eat, sleep, or interact with other pets at the boarding facility. We'll, we did not have that issue with Tenisha or Eric. From our initial meet and greet to our recent 8 days cruise vacation. Snowball, has been happy and full of life. The pictures and videos they sent daily of Snowball running and playing with Tenisha, Eric, and their adorable pet poodle Sybil were very reassuring. I even jokenly told my wife that I think he may prefer them over us. Needless to say, I highly recommend Tenisha and Eric as your preferred csretaker if you love your fur baby and want the peace of mind of knowing your pet is being professionally cared for in every way during your absence.”
“I got more than what I bargain for! I was only looking for a sitter for a quick trip over the weekend, and hoping that they would be patient enough with a dog which I just adopted from the shelter with who knows what trauma he had; I landed on a professional! This was my first experience and a pleasant one as well! FYI this is not a drop off service! I appreciated the time that Joshua took to ask me as much as I knew about my "new" dog. After a couple of minutes he says “he has dog in him", which for me meant that he accepts and was looking forward to getting to know him. Besides the basic questions, allergies, vet info and all, he genuinely asked about "my" concerns. I appreciated that. During my time away he volunteered updates on how my Buddy was doing, even had breathtaking photoshoot! Buddy was looking fierce and sexy! (see pics in album with red and blue collars : ) My greatest appreciation was the feedback when I returned. Buddy was at his best behavior and Joshua also shared his thoughts on Buddy's true potential. After sharing my habits at home with Buddy, as a professional trainer, Joshua pointed out the does and don'ts and why they were important which was very helpful! He shared commands and how to execute and reinforce them, and helpful items I could purchase to help with training at home. I won't write a book here, but to sum it all up, I won't turn anywhere else, Joshua is "my go to" for the future. Thank you Joshua!”
“LeKesha took such great care of my Monte. It was my first time booking with LeKesha, so I was nervous at first. LeKesha quickly offered to let us come by her house for a meet and greet before we left for our trip. Monte quickly made himself at home and played with the other dogs. While we were away, I got pictures and updates. Overall, it was a great five star experience!”
