“Kristin is the best! She's so kind and dependable. Having her to come stop by and give Stu some love while we're gone has helped us feel better about leaving him home alone when we travel. And it helps his anxiety too, we tell him when she's coming and he stops panicking about us leaving! He loves having her visit. We will always highly recommend her! :)”

About: I grew up with a dog and have since provided pet sitting services for neighbors and friends. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I currently volunteer at the county dog shelter, where I work with dogs of all temperaments, including shy or nervous pets who need extra time to warm up to new people. Being very active myself, I’m also comfortable handling strong dogs who tend to pull during walks. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pups while you're away on trips or at work! I work a typical 9-to-5 schedule and primarily work from home, which allows me to take breaks and visit or walk your pets frequently throughout the day. I currently don't have any pets of my own, so your pet will receive my full attention while in my care. I am happy to meet before booking to see if I am the right fit for your pet!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. My family has had dogs of all sizes, including three pit bulls and a mastiff so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds as well as smaller pets. Our family dogs and cats have ranged from young puppies to seniors, which has given me experience adjusting to different energy levels, routines, and care needs throughout a dog’s life. I’ve also cared for our pets on my own for week-long periods when family members were away, making sure they were happy, safe, and well cared for. More recently, I adopted my own cat named Muffin, who I’ve had for the past seven months. Being a pet owner myself has made me appreciate how important it is to find someone you trust, and I would care for your pets with the same attention and care I give my own. I work part-time in the evenings, which gives me a flexible schedule during the day. Most days I’m available after 11:00 AM for drop-in visits, walks, feedings, or spending quality time with your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the care and attention they need while you’re away. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and routine rather than treating every visit the same. I’ll make sure they get the care, attention, and consistency they’re used to, while also treating your home with respect and keeping you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going.
“I can't say enough good things about Stefania! She went above and beyond to make sure my cat Boo Boo was happy and well-cared for while I was away. I received updates with photos and videos, which put my mind at ease. She even managed to win over my cat, despite his tendency to not like strangers. What really impressed me was that she stayed longer than scheduled on drop ins. It's clear she genuinely cares about animals and their well-being. I highly recommend this cat sitter to anyone looking for top-notch care for their beloved pets!”
“Laura is amazing with our doggie! She gives her lots of love while we are out of town, and treats her as if she was her own dog. We will definitely keep scheduling with her. You will like her with your doggies too!”

I also began pet sitting in high school and loved the experiences I had getting to know clients and their amazing pets. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule.

Right now I am in college at Ohio University, I definitely have time to watch any animals you have anytime before or after my classes and during the weekends! I have two black labs and two cats that I love endlessly, I play with them all the time making sure they are played with and fed well, as well as my family does too. One of my dogs has been through surgery for back legs after both tore ACL which causes to limp and with that, I know ways to help care for in a situation for any dogs.
About: My family growing up always had a tendency to take in stray cats, so all my life I've had opportunity to care and play with them. Due to an unexpected litter when I was a teenager I have lots of experience in taking care of kittens. I'm also comforting taking responsibility for elderly and cats with disabilities. I don't have a cat currently but am happy to have them in my life, so am always eager to get to help out.

About: Hi! I’m a local woman with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I approach every animal with deep love, respect, & a strong sense of responsibility—safety and comfort are always my priorities. I’m currently studying psychology through online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and an attentive, thoughtful approach to pet care. One of my favorite things to do is get outside, so if your dog loves adventure, I’d be happy to take them on trail runs or hikes with me! I always approach each pet with gentleness, patience, and respect. Whether it’s a trail run with an energetic pup or a quiet visit with a shy cat, I tailor my care to meet their needs. I’m currently taking online psychology classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and a thoughtful, attentive approach to pet care. Safety, trust, and love are at the heart of everything I do. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all. I create a calm, secure environment that’s free from hazards (no loose cords, toxic plants, or access to unsafe areas). I make sure each pet has their own space to decompress, especially for cats or anxious dogs. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, medication, and rest, and I keep in close communication with you throughout their stay—updates, photos, anything that gives you peace of mind. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I make sure doors, gates, and windows are always secure. I also do slow, supervised introductions if there are other animals in the home (or none at all if your pet needs solo time). My goal is to make every pet feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.

“Caitlin did a fantastic job with my dog Dingo! After his walk he snuggled up in his bed and took a nap while I continued my WFH day. Dingo is looking forward to more walks with Caitlin!”
“Hi Rachel. I wanted to ask you to do something for me. As I am VERY allergic to poison ivy and oak, please don’t let Ryman hang out in weeds around my house or neighborhood. I get it from his fur and am just getting over a patch. I know he loved it but I really don’t want to deal with it all summer. Letting him sniff a bit, pee on it is fine; but it’s all over the hillside and fields around here too. Plus it may help avoid ticks on him. Thanks”

About: I grew up with 3 dogs and spent years taking them on walks, so being around pups has always felt natural to me. Now that I live on campus, I miss having a furry walking buddy! I love animals, enjoy spending time with them, and will treat your fur babies like my own. I already go on multiple walks every day, usually around Athens and along the bike paths, so dog walking fits perfectly into my daily routine!

I currently only offer dog walking services, but I’m flexible with what works best for you! I can either come to you, or if needed, your dog is welcome to be picked up and stay at my house for a bit before or after walks.

I have cared for animals at all life stages; helped cats in labor, bottle fed kittens, trained shelter dogs, provided senior animal care, administered medicines including pills, oral syringes, ointments, eye drops, mucosal membrane gel, subcutaneous fluids, sprays, and topical liquids. I completed the 4H horse husbandry program when I was a kid and I completed the Joel Silverman Foster Dog Handler Certification Course in 2018. I have volunteered at the Brevard County Humane Society (socializing cats and working in their thrift store), S.A.F.E. Pet Rescue (walking dogs and assisting with adoptions), and Saint Augustine Wild Reserve (preparing diets for a wide variety of animals). I currently have a turtle and three rescue pups of my own. I call my dogs my dogters and I treat them accordingly. I will give your fur kids the same level of care. I am a stay at home dog mom looking to re-enter the workforce and caring for animals is the thing I love to do most. I am currently working part-time as a dog bather and caring for pets on Rover. I generally have lots of availability and only really block out times that I have other appointments. I will put your pet's safety first. I know how important details can be. I will make sure the latches are latched, the medications are correct, and preferences are adhered to. I'm reliable, accommodating, and will work to build a genuine rapport with you and your pets.

“I had confidence when I left my dogs with Tracy. Lots of experience, very dog friendly home full of dogs and dog lovers. I would definitely recommend Tracy to anyone.”
“Adrian was so kind and helped us out with a last minute booking due to death in our family. He took great care of our two border collies and stayed in communication with texts and pictures. We will definitely book again.”
“Wendy was outstanding. She was appropriately communicative and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. My dog was a bit anxious the first day and Wendy was patient and caring with him. Also, my plane got back late and Wendy was understanding. Cannot recommend highly enough”
“Bridget was wonderful for an overnight stay for Shelby. She was very communicative and sent many pictures and videos of her playing with and snuggling with Shelby. I would 1000% book with Bridget for any dog sitting needs!”

About: By day I’m a work-from-home U.S. government employee, and in my free time I manage my 10 acre homestead. I have a wealth of animal care experience on the farm: housing 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 alpacas, 4 peacocks, 5 goats, and too many chickens to count. With that cast of characters I’ve learned a lot about animal care, and have the vet on speed dial just in case lol. I have a fenced in play area which can accommodate even larger breeds and some friendly dogs of my own to keep everyone entertained (and exercised). I’m also adept at administering medications (if necessary) and will consider accommodating special needs pets on a case-by-case basis. Most importantly, I absolutely love dogs and can’t wait to hang out with yours.
