I left my 3-month old puppy with Xionella for the whole day, and she had never been away from me or with other dogs. She had the best time!! I got updates about her well being all day!! My mind and heart were at ease🩷

Angela is very responsive, sends plenty of updates during your dog's stay, and made our pup feel right at home! Plus she has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things canine. She was even able to accommodate a *very* last minute schedule change with no issues. I would absolutely recommend her for any of your doggy related needs!

Annette was great! Chevie, who’s normally wary of other dogs, immediately started playing with her dog and settled in well! I appreciated all the outdoor/dog park time Chevie got. She was tired and relaxed when we got home!

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the unique needs of felines, and I provide a comfortable, loving environment for all pets. As someone who works from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m able to provide regular feeding, playtime, and walks throughout the day, ensuring your pet receives consistent attention. With a flexible schedule, I can accommodate special needs and adjust routines as required, all while keeping your pet safe and happy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of space to play, relax, and receive attention. I follow your pet’s regular routine for feeding, exercise, and rest, while offering extra care if needed, such as medication administration or special dietary needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to keep their environment familiar and stress-free. I stick to their regular routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions for their care, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away.

With school wrapping up, I’ve got plenty of free time—and what better way to spend it than caring for and hanging out with awesome animals? I live in a cozy two-story home with plenty of space for pets to relax and explore. There's a temporary fenced area for outdoor time and lots of room for walks in a quiet neighborhood. It's a calm, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel right at home.

I highly recommend Misty as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She took excellent care of my two dogs while I was out of town for five days. Misty was incredibly flexible, checking on them at my home for the first half of the trip and then taking them into her home for the second part. She provided regular updates with pictures, ensuring I was at ease during my trip. Her dedication and affection towards my dogs were evident, and they were happy and well-cared for upon my return.

Christina is the biggest animal lover I know. She has helped take care of my kitten since he was little and has a dog of her own that is so loved and well cared for. I would trust Christina with taking care of any pet I have or adopt in the future and will be recommending her to anyone in the neighborhood!

I can’t recommend Fionna enough as a dog sitter. She took SUCH great care of my dog, Midnight. He’s a German Sheperd, with very high energy, but Fionna was up for the challenge. She made sure he had plenty of outside time (to get his zoomies out) and gave him so many treats. She also made sure to send me updates and pictures of him while I was away. She went above and beyond, and for absolutely nothing. I can say with 100% certainty that she is the perfect person to watch your pet.

Lauren is very loving and caring towards animals. When we were out of town she made sure to spend a lot of time caring for our dogs and cat. She sent photos, updates and wasn’t afraid to ask questions if they came up. I would recommend Lauren to anyone that needs some extra love and attention for their fur babies while out of town or even just to stop in during the day when you can’t get away from your commitments.

About: Hello everyone! I hope this message finds you well! I'm excited to share that I’m offering dog sitting services in our community (Athens) As a proud dog owner of four adorable Chihuahuas, I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy to care for your furry family members. I moved to Athens 9 months ago. I just started on Rover but have watched several dogs in our community. That’s why you won’t see reviews. Here’s what I can offer: Safe & Secure Environment— I have a fenced yard where your pups can play and enjoy fresh air. Flexible Schedule— I work part-time for Amazon, but my schedule is flexible. On the days I’m dog sitting, I won’t pick up any shifts, ensuring your pets receive my full attention. Loving Care—- With my experience caring for my own dogs for 11 years, I promise to provide a loving and nurturing environment for your pets whenever you need! If you're interested or know someone who might be, feel free to reach out! I’d love to discuss how I can help take care of your furry friends. Thanks for considering me as your go-to dog sitter! Best, Gianni I work part time but have a very flexible schedule, so I won’t pick up any shift when it’s time to take care of you pup. I have a fenced yard and 4 adorable chihuahuas to play with new friends. Peewee, Lilly, Lola and Lilly. My male chihuahua is neutered, so no worries. The other 3 are females but they are not spayed.

Kayla has looked after our 2 precious dogs 2 separate times. They’re very cuddly and hate when we’re gone. But Kayla was so diligent to walk them and stay at our home to keep up with them. When it was cold out, she put them in sweaters to make sure they were safe! She took great care of our home while she was there, and even let Macy (the mixed breed with curly fur) sleep next to her! She made sure to ask me before driving them to a park and she sent me pictures of them having fun! I could tell she loved spending time with them and they loved her! Highly recommend Kayla!

Benjamin was a fantastic sitter for our 2-year-old high-energy black lab during our vacation on St. Simon’s. He went the extra mile entertaining our dog while we went on a biking/lunch excursion. He sent pictures during the day to assure us our boy was safe and happy. Seeing how much he was enjoying himself made it possible for us to thoroughly enjoy our outing. We highly recommend Benjamin and would hire him again in a heartbeat.
