“Incredibly professional, reliable, and great with our dogs. I know they are in great hands and are getting excellent care. Timely communication”


“We are very particular with our springer doodle, Sadie. The first time Mollie met Sadie was so pleasant. Mollie knew how to handle the regular size doodle even though Sadie is just as big as Mollie. On the day of the visits, we could tell Sadie enjoyed seeing Mollie each time. We will be using Mollie again!!”


About: As a dedicated pet sitter with 7+ years of experience, I go beyond basic care to provide pets with love, attention, and an stress-free environment while their owners are away. I have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, small pets, and even exotic or farm animals. Whether it’s administering medication, handling special dietary needs, or providing structured exercise and enrichment, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I specialize in working with shy, anxious, reactive, or senior pets, using patience and positive reinforcement to help them feel comfortable and secure. With an extensive background in the Veterinary field, I ensure pets stay safe and happy under my care. My goal is to not only meet but exceed your expectations—providing updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Let me treat your pet like family! With an open and flexible schedule, I can provide pet care that fits seamlessly into your routine. Since I am not currently employed elsewhere, I am available for last-minute bookings, extended stays, and midday visits—ensuring your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a late-night check-in, or specialized care throughout the day, I can accommodate your pet’s specific schedule without restrictions. My priority is making sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and well-cared for while giving you peace of mind. I am currently enrolled in school to continue pursuing my Doctorate in Psychology. I understand that a pet’s home is their safe space, and I take great care in ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. In your home, I maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions—so they experience minimal disruption. I treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, tidy, and just as you left it. My goal is to provide not just pet care, but complete peace of mind, knowing that your furry family member is happy and well-cared for in the comfort of their own home.

About: I cared for my 2 sweet black Cocker Spaniels as a child and as a young adult I had a Coon Hound as well as a Chihuahua. I am retired and have plenty of time to care for your pet. I only leave for short grocery runs, but if asked, will not leave your precious pet alone. I have a medium sixed fenced back yard for exercise, sunshine, and lots of fetch games for you precious small dog and a cool home during the hot months.

“Bre did a great job taking care of our three cats! very friendly, good communication and thorough, it’s nice to know we have someone who cares taking care of our babies while we’re out of town!”


“Hannah has stayed with our pets several times now and whether overnight or just dropping in she is very punctual, communicates proactively, and is a pleasure to work with.”


“Wendi did a great job keeping our dogs happy and well exercised! She is great with sending pictures and communication with us. We will definitely be using Wendi in the future!”


“Presleigh has been so good! She’s so helpful and kind and has helped me out with my dog so much this week.”


About: I've loved/cared for animals since I was born, but once I turned 16 I started house-sitting overnight as well as walking dogs for friends, family members, and neighbors. I currently have one dog, Ringo, who has special medications and allergy needs, so I am familiar with administering medication to animals if need be. My part-time freelance position gives me an abundance of time to help with your precious little fur babies and include them into my day to day schedule 💗 I care for pets specifically in their owner's home, whether that be specifically dropping in to take them out on walks, or keeping them company while their family is on vacation!

“We were super grateful to be able to meet with Haley and schedule her to care for our guys while we were away. She provided lots of photos which we love seeing! Thanks so much for keeping our crew cared for and busy!”


About: I started pet sitting and walking when I was a kid. I took my passion in animals and became a professional certified pet groomer. I’ve been grooming for 3 years now, with experience in EVERY breed, age, temperament, and special needs. I pride myself in giving your pet(s) the best quality care and comfort possible. I have a special place in my heart for senior pups, but even the young puppers steal my heart. I currently work Monday through Friday with some evenings that I am free. Saturday and Sunday are my free days where I have the most flexible time. I have two dogs of my own, who love meeting new friends. I have experience with crating pets, walking, feeding, giving medications as needed, working with reactive and temperamental pups, and doing whatever is necessary for the safety and comfort of your pet(s). Whatever they may need.

About: We have been caring for dogs, cats, donkeys, goats, and pigs for well over 10 years. We have recently moved to Athens and bring with us that experience to offer to you! We have helped birth and raised numerous dogs, numerous cats from birth, to include bottle feeding both dogs and cats. I have worked at horse ranch as well. My wife and I have grown up around and cared for animals all of our life. I currently work full time and I'm home by 5pm, but my wife is a stay at home mother, so someone will always be available for potty breaks, feeding, watering or play time! We are able to do drop in visits, boarding as well as dog sitting! We currently have 4 very friendly dogs that get along great with any animal we have had over or around, so plenty of friends for your pup to play with! We also have a large fenced in yard, and a shop with concrete flooring for shelter if needed.

About: I have had 2 dogs of my own for 7 years. My sweet pups get pampered at home, so I would to share some love with other dogs around town while I have some extra time on my hands. I also have experience dog sitting for friends & family, but would love to expand to help new families! I am a teacher, so my afternoons and weekends are wide open! I’d love to spend some of my free time with your sweet animals. My pets have comfort, safety, and fun in my home. It is so important to keep my animals as happy and healthy (physically and mentally) as can be, because they help me be the best version of myself with their companionship.

About: Through my time working in shelters, as a pet sitter/dog walker, and head trainer for multiple companies I have met and loved hundreds of dogs. My scientific background as well as extensive behavioral knowledge makes me extremely capable to take care of any breed and personality. I am an avid hiker and love to show dogs a good time. Whatever your pups preferred activities, I can accommodate and more! I love to add in mental exercise in the form of training and games to truly tire out your pup, not just physically, while working on valuable life skills as well. I have experience with reactivity, resource guarding, fearful/shy dogs, anxiety, medical issues, deaf/blind dogs, puppies and adolescents and more. My own three dogs- Flash, Capri, and Keller- are my best friends and best teachers. I can’t wait to meet your best friend too! Owning my own dog training company provides so much including a flexible schedule. My lessons are no longer than 2 hours at most and I typically only have 1-2 a day which gives me plenty of time morning, afternoon, and evening to continue to care for dogs in whatever capacity you need. I treat every client’s home and dog as my own. I respect privacy and security making sure to check and double check all gates, doors, and locks. Working at a professional pet sitting company for many years in the past has given me the experience to get in and out of your house safely while caring for your dog and providing you with peace of mind. Your dog is my top priority when I am with them. I value leash safety and carry my own safety equipment at all times including non-slip martingale collars, extra leashes, and carabiners. I am a pro at avoiding off leash dogs or other unwanted attention on walks depending on your dogs preferences. I pride myself on a deep understanding of canine body language allowing me to determine when and what your dog would like to do or avoid.

“The puppers say you're great ;) me, too!”


“Quianna is super nice and really does love pets. My pups liked her on their first meeting. She took pictures and movies for me which made my day. I will absolutely be going to her first next time I need a sitter!”
