About: Animal lover without a pet, so I’ll treat yours like they are my own! I’m an experienced pet sitter and previously a foster/volunteer at Atlanta humane society looking to have some more dogs in my life. I live near Piedmont park and have a fenced in backyard. I’m taking a sabbatical from my full time job in the tech industry so will have plenty of time and attention to give to your pets. I have a fenced in backyard and live very close to Piedmont Park. I’m very happy to give dogs their space to play outside, take for frequent walks and even to the dog park if you’d like! Depending on your pet/their level of training and comfort, they’re welcome to stay in bed with me overnight or happy to keep them in their crate as well if you bring that! I typically don’t let animals on my furniture, but if you have a prince or princess who’s used to sofa snuggles just let me know ahead of time and I can cover the white couch 😂
8. Maria Del G.
“I can’t say enough good things about our pet sitter! From the moment Ruby met her, it was clear there was an instant connection. She's not only incredibly loving and attentive, but also very experienced with dogs, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Ruby was so happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back—it was like a little vacation for her too! I got regular updates, photos, and even videos, which made it feel like I was never too far. If you’re looking for someone to treat your dog like family, look no further. Highly recommend!”

She clicks so many pictures to send me as well. I would trust my dog with her anytime.”

“Banks watched over my puppy (Male, 8 months) recently and took great care of the him!

I will definitely be going back to banks when I go out of town again!”
