“Kathy is great! This is the second time we have left Freya with her and she always seems to have a good time. Kathy sends you updates and photos which always makes me feel better about leaving Freya. I would definitely recommend Kathy to anyone.”
“Kayla was amazing! She watched my dog for a few days and kept me updated every single day, which gave me real peace of mind. This was my first time using a sitter, and she made the whole process feel easy and completely stress-free. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and in good hands. I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Bryan is an excellent care giver and took Great care of my Gypsy girl! She loved him and playing with all the dogs and was so very comfortable and relaxed when I picked her up. He makes you feel reassured that baby is doing well and sends pictures daily to keep you informed. Will be using Bryan often!!”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“I must say I do get nervous when Luna’s going to someone for the first time because she hasn’t met them before, but it seems that she did a great job. The sitter was very friendly, professional, and communicated very well and sent pictures which I love that. I’m glad that she also had someone to play with. I will definitely be using this Sitter again I highly recommend.”
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“I can’t recommend them enough! This was my first time leaving my 10-month-old puppy, Ollie, for several days, and I was honestly so nervous. They immediately put my mind at ease with regular updates, photos, and great communication throughout my trip. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to actually relax and enjoy my vacation. I’m so grateful for the care they gave him, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my sweet boy! 🤍🐾”
“She was so great with my fur son and he really enjoyed being with her. I was so relieved with the many pictures and videos I received due to never being apart from him. I will definitely use her services again and again.”
“This is our second time using Kim and we will use her again. Loki loves her pup Roxy, and they play all day. Kim has a wonderful setup, a great yard, and is very responsive. Loki is always happy (and worn out) when we pick him up. He was happy to see her and her dogs when we dropped him off and that says everything.”
About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home with pets and have spent my life feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for animals of all ages. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and deserves patience, love, and attention. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone to keep them company, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust, and my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and happy while you're away. I currently offer pet care Friday through Sunday. During the weekends, I'm able to provide attentive care, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and companionship. I only accept bookings when I know I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve, so your furry family member will receive quality care while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and a fenced outdoor patio where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and play under supervision. Pets are never left unattended outside. Inside, they are treated like family with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I can follow your pet's normal routine, administer medications if needed, and accommodate crate-trained dogs if that is part of their routine. I also have two friendly Yorkshire Terriers who enjoy meeting other dogs, but I always introduce pets carefully to ensure everyone is comfortable.
“You MUST book with Brandi. My yorkie, Mater really enjoyed himself. Brandi responded quickly when I messaged her and sent extra pictures (she sent multiple pictures already as her routine) to me daily of my sweet boy when I messaged about him. Her family loved on Mater and he felt at home. I must add that when I picked him up after my vacation, Mater whimpered as drove away. This means everything! He was sad to leave.”
“Monica and her family welcomed my sweet Maple and treated her as family. I loved the continuous communication, updates, pictures and videos they captured while together. We are most definitely looking forward to visiting Monica again. She is awesome!”
“Tanya is awesome she is patient living and caring for Sayon she took good care of him she is lije family I felt confident that Sayon was in good care. I have found a second home for my baby when I travel out of town Tanya kept me posted everyday sending pictures letting me know he was okay”
“Anastasia was fantastic! Both of my dogs were wonderfully taken care of and had a great time. She kept me updated and made sure to send pictures as well! I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”
About: With over 20 years of experience, your furry friends will have the best care and affection they could ever want. In addition, I provide daily reports and feedback to keep you informed while you are away. Currently a stay-at-home mom, so I can be quite flexible and work to your schedule. Our family is ready to help your pets feel secure while you travel. We have 3 acres of fenced-in land for your dog to roam free. In addition, we have a house and climate controlled barn should your babe need more space to themselves. Our ambassador hound Hermes should be able to keep them company as well.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters? For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly believe in “soul dogs,” the once-in-a-lifetime companions who leave paw prints on our hearts forever. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with two amazing dogs of my own: Dax, my gentle 110-pound giant, and Sandy, my spirited 23-pound sidekick. Living with dogs of very different sizes and personalities has taught me how every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and love I give every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime, or prefers quiet companionship and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, understand the importance of consistency, and believe that trust is earned through kindness and reliability. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your dog—it’s to become someone they’re excited to see again. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My two dogs, Dax and Sandy, have consistent routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, and I understand how important that consistency is for every dog. I work away from home Monday through Thursday, but I have a predictable schedule with consistent departure and return times. This allows me to provide reliable care and lets pet parents know exactly what to expect. On my days off, I spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of my family. My home is a safe, welcoming environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play throughout the day. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can run, explore, play fetch, or simply relax in the sunshine. On warm days, I like to put out a small dog pool so pups can cool off and have a little extra fun. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers lounging outside and soaking up the fresh air, I’ll make sure they have an enjoyable stay. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

“Thank You Hannah! Hannah took care of my 2 kitties over a long weekend. One of them is very old, but I felt completely comfortable with leaving him in her hands.

I will definitely use Hannah again and I highly recommend contacting her if you are in the PTC area! Thank You!”

Beyond everyday play and cuddles, I have hands-on experience noticing subtle shifts in feline health.

I bring that same careful eye, patience, and vigilance to every visit, ensuring your cats stay safe, healthy, and happy while you are away.

About: I’ve worked at the rescue in my hometown for a few years now, I’ve worked in 2 different grooming salons, and have also been involved with some vets.

He is such a good companion and helped get Penny out of her shell.”

“Elizabeth is truly a Godsend! Since relocating to Griffin, my pup Lulu has been anxious and just not her usual bubbly self. Elizabeth has been so patient, loving, and professional — helping Lulu adjust and gain confidence again. I’ve seen such a big difference in how Lulu interacts with other dogs and people. She absolutely loves spending time with Elizabeth and honestly doesn’t want to come home afterward! 😂 Lulu comes back happy, tired, and relaxed — like she worked a full-time job in just half a day. I’m so grateful for Elizabeth’s care, expertise, and kindness. She’s been a huge part of helping Lulu settle in and feel like herself again. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 💕”
About: I've worked in animal care for several years, starting at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I spent six years. I began as a kennel technician and worked my way up to general manager, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviors, and medical needs. I'm currently pursuing a long-term goal of becoming a veterinary technician. In my free time, I foster animals for a local rescue that I'm passionate about. I take pride in using fear-free handling techniques, understanding animal body language, working through behavioral challenges, and providing compassionate care for medically compromised pets. While I'm relatively new to Rover, I've been caring for pets in my home for years. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time as a veterinary assistant at a local animal hospital. I have at least two days off each week and work a half day on Wednesdays. While I am away during part of the day, I come home every day during my hour lunch break to let your baby out for a potty break, playtime, and some extra love and attention. In the evenings, I enjoy taking dogs for walks (weather permitting) and spending quality time with them. When I have pets in my care, I plan my schedule around their needs. I avoid making additional plans so I can provide plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, cuddles, and consistency with their normal routine. I do provide care in your home, with the same schedule/availability. Such as; going to your home on my break to care for the pet(s), only sitting for one family at a time, walks, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable, loved, and at home as possible while you're away. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a pool that is currently being fenced for added safety. My philosophy is simple: pets are never left unattended outside. If your pet is crate-trained or simply feels more comfortable in a crate, I have plenty of space to set one up for daytime or overnight use. I only care for one client's pet(s) at a time to provide the safest environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. I have a designated "dog cabinet" stocked with essentials like pill pockets, peanut butter, and ability to keep any medications your pet may need during their stay. If your pet rides in my vehicle, I use a pet seat belt to help keep them secure during travel. I ask that owners provide a properly fitted harness or collar and leash. If you're unable to do so, I have extras available (with your permission) to safely transfer your pet to and from my home and for walks. I do my best to maintain your pet's normal feeding schedule, so I appreciate detailed instructions regarding meals, treats, and any special preferences. I also always ask about food sensitivities, allergies, or other dietary needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. These apply to in your home as well.

With a dedicated team of three, we ensure that coverage is always available for walks, playtime, meals, medication, and any special needs. We only board one pet family at a time, so your pet(s) receive consistent and undivided attention throughout their stay. Whether it’s a quick drop in, a long walk, or an extended stay, we integrate pet care seamlessly into our day so your furry friend always receives one on one attention, love, and consistency, even when our work or personal schedules are busy. Every day is built around the pets in our care, so they have companionship, enrichment, and comfort at all times. This routine allows us to provide a safe, happy, and stress free environment for your pet while giving you peace of mind! For drop-ins, we follow the schedule you provide, offering walks or playtime in the yard, companionship and belly rubs, and meal times to keep your pet happy and comfortable. In our home, we provide a dedicated space tailored to your pet’s needs. For pets who love to play, they will enjoy spending time with our Golden Retriever, Murphy, who loves to play both inside and out. With nearby walking trails and a pet park, your dog is ensured all the fun, exercise, and play they need. Boarding includes two half mile walks per day, a potty break, and indoor/outdoor playtime. Please note that dogs who require longer or additional walks may have a small extended exercise fee depending on the routine requested. For pets who need some space, we offer an entire level of our home pet-free, so they can feel comfortable and safe while still having access to cozy spots like a couch, belly rubs, and extended walks for extra stimulation. For cats, we provide a private floor where they can lounge, soak up the sun, play with toys, and enjoy a calm, comfortable environment without the stress of unknown pets around. We also provide a complimentary litter box, so you can board your cat without the worry of hauling their personal throne, just bring their preferred litter. For small animals, we offer a secluded and relaxing environment where they can enjoy their enclosure in a way that best suits their individual needs. Our approach is all about personalized care, comfort, and enrichment, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and stimulated while in our home or during visits.

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have potty trained numerous puppies and have taken care of my own and friends for 20 plus years. I have given medication for allergies and diabetes. Since retiring pet sitting is enjoyable to me especially since I dedicate all my time to giving attention and care to all kinds. I mostly prefer dogs and cats though I did grow up with horses and rode all during my youth. So horses is also a plus for me. I would love the opportunity to take care of your fur babies. I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands and what better way then to play with fur babies. I have had a dog inside of the home since I was 2. At this time I cannot board dogs due to my dogs. They are in an underground fence system which gives them run of the front and back yard if my home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. While I don’t have any, people around me trust me to look after theirs. I’ve always had cats and currently have 4 of my own. I have also had experience taking care of reptiles as well! It’s always nice to feel needed in an animals life and to give them the love they deserve. I do not currently have a job- so I am available when you need someone most! Just shoot me a message and I’ll reply asap! I make sure my own pets feel comfortable in their space and I’d make sure yours felt the same. Providing a comfortable environment for pets is essential to gain trust and respect from them.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, from tiny, energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler touch and extra patience. I’m experienced in all aspects of pet care—including feeding, walking, playing, bathing, administering medication, and giving your fur baby all the cuddles they could want. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, so I always take the time to get to know them and adjust my care to make them feel safe and loved. Whether your dog needs high-energy playtime, a slow walk with extra breaks, or a little help with anxiety or medications, I’m happy to accommodate. I’m flexible with scheduling, available for last-minute bookings, and can handle special routines or requests without a problem. And don’t worry—while you’re away, I’ll send plenty of sweet and silly photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands and having fun I am a college athlete but I always love working with sweet cats and dogs!!

If that means going on walks, being crated, going on a drive, or just snuggling the couch. I would love to make your baby happy.
About: I've always had at least one dog at any given time, and up to 4 at the most. I know what a fur baby needs, whether it's petting and naps to repetitive frisbee or tennis ball play! I enjoy the love each doggie brings. I know how hard it is to be at work or out of town and wonder if they are being adored in the same capacity as I would want to show. I can help alleviate the stress of being bored and alone all day, so YOU get all the best parts of your loving pup at the end of your long day. If they need snuggles, you've got the right girl! If they need a brisk hike or a run, let's give them what they deserve! Cats, birds, snakes, lizards and fish are all cared for in my presence

About: Dogs have been at the center of my world for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered rescue dogs, which taught me how to connect with, comfort, and care for dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. Today, I am the proud owner of two dogs that I have raised and trained since they were puppies. I know firsthand the dedication it takes to keep a dog healthy, well-behaved, and thriving. Your dog’s health and happiness are my absolute top priorities. I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attentiveness that I give my own. Because I believe a happy dog is an active dog, my visits focus on physical exercise and mental stimulation. I work a full-time, hybrid schedule in law enforcement with standard hours from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. I work from my home office almost the entire month, meaning I am present all day to provide companionship, frequent potty breaks, and a highly structured routine for your pet. I am only required to go into the physical office about 3 days per month. On those specific days, I am still fully available for early morning and evening care, though any pets boarding with me would need to be comfortable being left alone during my core office hours. My schedule is very flexible. Having pets and working with them my whole life I understand how important routines are. I respect the pet's normal feeding, medication, and exercise schedule precisely as requested. I keep client’s homes clean, tidy, and secure, just how I found it. I send regular photo and video messages so pet parents feel relaxed while they are away.

About: I’ve worked at the rescue in my hometown for a few years now, I’ve worked in 2 different grooming salons, and have also been involved with some vets. Working at a rescue and a grooming salon gives you so much experience to learn more about each breed and each dog. You get to learn everything about each sweetheart so we’ll over time that you also start to love them like they’re you’re own. I had to deal with almost every experience when it comes to pets as well. I love dogs so very much they have such a soft place in my heart and it’s always great to get to learn about their owners as well when they’re steady customers!

“Bryan is an excellent care giver and took Great care of my Gypsy girl! She loved him and playing with all the dogs and was so very comfortable and relaxed when I picked her up. He makes you feel reassured that baby is doing well and sends pictures daily to keep you informed. Will be using Bryan often!!”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“I must say I do get nervous when Luna’s going to someone for the first time because she hasn’t met them before, but it seems that she did a great job. The sitter was very friendly, professional, and communicated very well and sent pictures which I love that. I’m glad that she also had someone to play with. I will definitely be using this Sitter again I highly recommend.”
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“This is our second time using Kim and we will use her again. Loki loves her pup Roxy, and they play all day. Kim has a wonderful setup, a great yard, and is very responsive. Loki is always happy (and worn out) when we pick him up. He was happy to see her and her dogs when we dropped him off and that says everything.”
“You MUST book with Brandi. My yorkie, Mater really enjoyed himself. Brandi responded quickly when I messaged her and sent extra pictures (she sent multiple pictures already as her routine) to me daily of my sweet boy when I messaged about him. Her family loved on Mater and he felt at home. I must add that when I picked him up after my vacation, Mater whimpered as drove away. This means everything! He was sad to leave.”
“Monica and her family welcomed my sweet Maple and treated her as family. I loved the continuous communication, updates, pictures and videos they captured while together. We are most definitely looking forward to visiting Monica again. She is awesome!”
“Anastasia was fantastic! Both of my dogs were wonderfully taken care of and had a great time. She kept me updated and made sure to send pictures as well! I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly believe in “soul dogs,” the once-in-a-lifetime companions who leave paw prints on our hearts forever. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with two amazing dogs of my own: Dax, my gentle 110-pound giant, and Sandy, my spirited 23-pound sidekick. Living with dogs of very different sizes and personalities has taught me how every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and love I give every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime, or prefers quiet companionship and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, understand the importance of consistency, and believe that trust is earned through kindness and reliability. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your dog—it’s to become someone they’re excited to see again. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My two dogs, Dax and Sandy, have consistent routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, and I understand how important that consistency is for every dog. I work away from home Monday through Thursday, but I have a predictable schedule with consistent departure and return times. This allows me to provide reliable care and lets pet parents know exactly what to expect. On my days off, I spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of my family. My home is a safe, welcoming environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play throughout the day. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can run, explore, play fetch, or simply relax in the sunshine. On warm days, I like to put out a small dog pool so pups can cool off and have a little extra fun. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers lounging outside and soaking up the fresh air, I’ll make sure they have an enjoyable stay. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
“I am a thankful a friend told me about this app and I found Maggie! Her and her family were great with our CC! She kept me updated on how she was doing as well as sending pictures! We will definitely book again! Thank you Maggie!!”
“Randi was excellent! I recently moved to Georgia and was very hesitant about leaving my 15 year old cat but she put me at ease and took the best care of him. I received daily pictures along with detailed updates. My cat looked fine and even snored when he slept so I knew he was doing well. Randi would definitely be a great sitter for your fur baby! 10/10!!!”
