About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of dedicated animal experience, combined with the discipline and reliability of my military service. I’ve been a devoted dog owner since the age of 13, giving me a full decade of hands on familiarity with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Beyond household pets, I bring a unique level of capability honed by my time as a farmhand, where I gained invaluable experience caring for a variety of animals on a working ranch. This background ensures I’m not only comfortable and confident managing larger breeds or those requiring specific routines, but I also approach pet care with a heightened sense of responsibility, awareness, and maturity. When you entrust your furry family member to me, you’re hiring someone with instinct, professionalism, and genuine love that comes from a life spent caring for animals. I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at any given time. This practice allows me to perfectly integrate their specific feeding, walking, and play schedules into my daily routine, ensuring every pet receives my full focus and attention, just as if they were my own. Whether caring for your companion in your home or mine, my primary goal is consistency and comfort. I seamlessly integrate your pet’s needs into my structured military before and after shift schedule ensuring highly reliable timings for feedings, walks, and medications to provide a stress free experience. While I am at work, your pet will have a secure, restful environment, and my off duty hours are completely dedicated to their enrichment. If I stay in your home, I treat your property with complete respect. My ranch background guarantees I’m adept at subtle health monitoring, so you can be confident your pet is not only receiving plenty of focused cuddles but is also safe, stable, and well-cared for at all times.

He was conscientious and provided great updates during the visits. We can absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to trust their critters to him for care.”
“Over the past year of living in the area we have trusted Courtney the most to care for our girl any time we went out of town.

In my home, I will separate my pets as people bring in theirs. When the owners leave, I will introduce them one at a time. I can administer their medicine, do some light grooming, take on walks, and my schnauzer says he will let them play with his ball thrower. Oh, and pets will never be fed together.

“We were visiting Tifton, GA for a few days and wanted to find a sitter where our 2 year old active black lab could run and play and enjoy the day while we were sight-seeing. I requested the stay the day before and Michelle responded to my request within 15 minutes! Even though Michelle was 30 miles away from where we were staying, it was worth the travel to have a family so loving and attentive to Gus! Their home was perfect for Gus! Big wide open space to run, another friendly dog, Roscoe, to play with, and a dog-friendly home that met all his needs. If we are in this area again, we will definitely contact Michelle!!”

About: Hi there! I am a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. My background includes working in both veterinary and pet insurance settings, so I’m very comfortable handling pets with all types of medical needs and administering medications safely and correctly (oral, topical, injectable, and more). I am also comfortable with other critters as needed on a case by case basis. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a concentration in Equine Science and Companion Animals, and I’ve dedicated my time outside of my 9-5 to helping pets live happy, healthy lives. I currently have two dogs and a cat, a turtle, a tortoise, and 5 fish tanks. This is an animal loving home without a doubt. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member behind when you travel or need extra help. My goal is to make things easier by providing reliable, compassionate care you can trust, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands. I work from home full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. For boarding, that means I’m able to give them as much or as little attention as they want. Whether they’re social snugglers or prefer their own space. I keep a calm, comfortable environment and make sure their needs are always met. While we do have other animals in the home, I am able to provide a private place for your pet if needed, and typically do dedicate one private space for any cat boarders. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can also easily fit in drop-in visits before or after work, ensuring pets get reliable care and consistent routines. Pet care naturally fits into my day because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. All animals must be dog and cat friendly. If you're boarding a cat, they will NOT have access to our cat since they're a bit more difficult to socialize. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where the animal can feel safe and relaxed. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible regarding feeding times, litter maintenance, playtime, and quiet time! I also make sure they get the right balance of attention and independence based on their personality. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and routines with the same respect and care I would my own. I pay close attention to any specific instructions for feeding, medications, or enrichment, and always take time to make pets feel loved and secure while their people are away. Communication is key for me, so I provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind every step of the way.

About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.

Caring for Hailey has given me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, grooming, administering basic care, and recognizing when something just isn’t quite right. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, lots of playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm, comforting companion while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care that gives you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is in caring hands until you’re back home.

I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and pet sitting, with availability varying by week. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, so I never overbook and always make sure your furry family member receives the love, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Communication is important to me, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. When caring for your pet in the comfort of your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I’ll take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean and secure and leaving it just as I found it. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, healthy, and in caring hands. My goal is for you to return home to a content pet and the peace of mind that they were treated like family every step of the way.

About: I have raised a dog from a puppy to senior life. I love my dogs like they are my children. I feel the same with other dogs.

If you need other availability, please let me know. I can easily crate your pet(s) in your home if needed. We would just talk with each other to make sure that we are in agreement with how you would like me to provide the service(s).

About: I’ve had several pets growing up so I have years of experience playing and taking care of dogs and cats. I love going to the beach, park, or hiking so I can take the dogs with me on any adventures. I am currently working part time. I am available on most weekends to spend time taking care of the pets. I am pretty active so if the dog is high energy, I can take him/her out on a long walk/run. Currently, I live in an apartment with one dog. I can provide both at home or at clients home services as long as all house rules are given to me before hand.
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every dog as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort needs so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I am patient, observant, and comfortable caring for dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. I can support basic reinforcement of training, maintain feeding and medication schedules, and provide structured walks and playtime to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. I work from home and have alot of flexibility with my schedule. So your babies will get to hang out with me during the day, while I work. Gaurenteed to get good rubs and hugs as I employee them as my little stress relievers during my work day lol. Dogs staying in my home are treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they can relax and follow a routine similar to what they are used to at home. Inside the house, dogs are free to move around and choose where they feel most comfortable resting or playing. I do not keep dogs confined unless an owner specifically requests crate use. My goal is to make their stay feel as natural and stress-free as possible. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely spend time outside. They are able to go in and out, play, explore, and burn off energy while remaining in a secure space. I supervise outdoor time and make sure every dog is comfortable with the environment. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, walks if requested, feeding according to the owner’s schedule, and plenty of attention. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
