Pet Boarding Watkinsville

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always had a huge love for animals! I’ve dog sat for several different families and love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing outside, or just giving them lots of love and attention! I also had the opportunity to foster a blind and deaf dog, which taught me a lot about patient responsibility and caring for dogs with unique needs, I live a healthy, active lifestyle and genuinely enjoy. Making sure every dog feels happy comfortable and loved while their owners are away! I am a college student at the University of Georgia and have a very relaxed class schedule! I am home most of the time throughout the days and weekends. I treat every pet and home like it’s my own! Making sure to pay close attention to every detail and treating every animal and home with love and care!

“Samantha was AMAZING for our dogs. We have a puppy and we’re very nervous about leaving him, and our Boston needs his own emotional support human so it was not ideal to leave him either…. They were both so well taken care of and we appreciate the love she gave our boys while they stayed with her!”

About: Hello! I am a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a vibrant, pet filled home with 3 dogs and 16 cats. Having so many furry family members from a young age taught me exactly what it takes to keep animals happy, healthy, and safe. Today, my world still revolves around pets, including my own sweet dog, Tequila, who is my full-time sidekick! Because I am with my dog Tequila all day long, your pet will benefit from constant supervision, structure, and companionship. I have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends handling everything from quick dog walks to extended overnight home boarding. I understand that your pets are family, and I treat every guest with the same love, patience, and attention that I give to my own. I work from home and my job is flexible. My home has a large yard, large enough for lots of running and playing. I also, have a car in case of emergencies or for longer walks at the park. Taking your dog out on different walks or as many walks as they want to go on throughout the day should not be a breeze. There will be lots of safe exploring and running around outdoors depending on your dog’s energy level. I have a few indoors and outdoor toys for playing.

“Maria and Carlos are exactly who you want to care for your dog. My Chorkie CoCo was lavished with constant attention, and pictures and videos were sent to show that she was having a wonderful time. They were very patient with her picky eating and walking her on a leash. They will always be my choice for caring for my CoCo!!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes EDD K9 handling, obedience training, working bird hunting dogs, and caring for high-energy working breeds that require structure and exercise. I live on 14.9 acres in Madison County, Georgia, providing dogs with a safe, spacious environment to play, explore, and relax. I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of maintaining routines that help dogs feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs active playtime, supervised socialization, or a calm place to stay, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side job. My daily routine is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and supervision throughout the day. Living on 14.9 acres in Madison County, I provide a safe, spacious environment where dogs can enjoy structured outdoor time and plenty of individual attention. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxed atmosphere, I tailor their care to their specific needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are being cared for by someone whose primary focus is their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dogs enjoy a structured daily schedule that includes supervised outdoor exercise, potty breaks, feeding according to their owner’s instructions, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one interaction. Each dog has access to a clean, secure run for rest and quiet time, while also receiving multiple opportunities throughout the day for exercise and socialization when appropriate. Because we accept only a limited number of dogs, we can closely monitor behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being. This personalized approach helps reduce stress, creates a calmer environment, and allows us to provide the level of care and attention that dogs deserve while their families are away. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home-away-from-home experience where every dog is treated like a valued guest rather than just another boarding reservation.

About: With over 13 years of experience, I provide a safe, adaptive, and nurturing environment for pets of all ages and energy levels. For senior, shy, and low-energy pets, I offer gentle, slower-paced routines. For puppies and high-energy pets, I provide the engagement and play they need to stay happy. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take pride in adapting to their specific needs. Whether they need long nature walks, cuddles, or simply some alone time, they will receive exactly that. To ensure your complete peace of mind while away, I will also provide frequent photo and video updates! As a university student with in-person classes only twice a week, I have a highly flexible schedule. I'm available almost any day of the week for boarding and dog/cat sitting. While my weekly schedule changes based on my studies and schoolwork, any pet care can be placed between them all. If there is a day or time you need me to be available that is not on my availability, I am always happy to negotiate! In my home, I adapt the pets' schedule to the way my home is. I have plenty of roaming space inside, but also outside for pets (leashed) that enjoy being outside and exploring. If your dog is crate-trained and needs to be in theirs, I can easily crate them. I also have 4 friendly cats that can keep your pet company, but if your pet does not like other animals, I also have the layout to keep them safely separated. In my client's home, I simply follow the schedule and rules they have for their pets. If you still feel unsure or your pet needs specific accommodation, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. I would like your pet to experience only the highest quality stay/care!

“Bear was happy when he arrived and Kelly provided a great service for me by watching my pet. Yes I would refer her and allow her to take care of Bear again. Thanks Kelly”

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs, including senior dogs who require extra patience and attention. I’ve done multiple day pet sitting where I followed a set schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m very attentive to routines and understand how important consistency is for pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I also provide updates and pictures so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive consistent attention, feeding, and bathroom breaks. I’m flexible and able to do morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure I’m fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe.

“This is the first time we've boarded our 8 year old lab since he was a puppy. Our son has always come to stay with him so to say we were apprehensive is a bit of an understatement. However, from our first visit to Mary Kate's property, we loved her and so did Augie. His tail was up from the moment we got out of the car. He roamed around the property and then she took us inside. Both Augie and we were very comfortable. She messaged us with pictures while we were away and he was happy but not frantic when we returned. We went out of town 2 days after we left him the first time and when we took him back over, he walked right in with no problem. I am completely happy with Mary Kate and would recommend her with no hesitation.”

“Our dogs had an awesome time with Chantz! He is an excellent communicator, professional, and an all around lover of dogs. We will continue to use Chantz for our dog sit on each.”

“From the second we met Tara, she treated our dog Harley like one of her own. Tara is very quick to respond to messages and calls. It can be very hard leaving your dog with someone else, but Tara made us feel very comfortable. We will definitely be using Tara in the futre.”

About: I am dedicated to being an attentive caretaker, providing love, companionship, and meeting all needs to ensure the well-being of any pet under my care. I’m currently taking online classes at Kennesaw State University. Being at home will allow me to effectively take care of pets that are assigned under my care. Whether indoors or outdoors, every pet receives ample attention tailored to their needs: whether it's for bathroom breaks, walks, or simply lounging, their care is tailored to their owner's preferences.

About: Hi! My name is Valentina, and I’ve been dog sitting for several years now, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love getting to know each dog's unique personality and needs. I know that leaving your pet in someone else's care can be stressful, which is why communication is one of my top priorities. I'll provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident and informed while you're away. My goal is to make your dog's time with me as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I do my best to maintain their normal routine, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, or any special instructions you provide. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with plenty of attention, patience, and care. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter pace, I'll make sure they have a safe, loving companion while their family is away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work full-time during the week, but I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets in my care so they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any other specific needs to help your pet feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I believe consistency is important, so I make every effort to maintain the routines your pet is already familiar with. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and affection based on their personality and energy level.
