“I am so happy that Ashley came to take care of our spoiled little babies. My dog Jack has the worst separation anxiety of any animal that I’ve ever known. He can’t be left alone, he will stress out so much, making himself sick and tearing up and house. Once he even chewed up the brass door knob. Ashley was absolutely wonderful with him, she was so patient and attentive to him. I thought our new Siamese kitten was going to worry her most but he was just playful and happy. All 3 of my animals were so well taken care of, if you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. I will use her again and I will recommend her to everyone that I know 🥰”


“Sarina came through again. Our geriatric dog Sprite has a real finicky appetite. Sarina was great at communicating what Sprite was doing, and was great at trying different things to get Sprite to eat.”

“Emily watched my dog leo for 5 days. She was amazing with him, she kept me updated everyday with pictures. I will be definitely using her for my future trip!”


About: From raising puppies and kittens, to keeping chinchillas and sugar gliders, I have been around all sorts of animals for most of my life. Some required medications and others wanted to be left alone. I'm not shy or timid around any types of pets and I would love to meet yours! I am self employed as a gig worker in the music industry, so I am available anytime while not on the road. My only obligation is making it to the gym most days so other than that, I can be full time focused on your home/pets! Would love to help you keep your pets in their routine, in their home and the environment they're most familiar with. I am able to stop by whenever you need me, crash on your couch while you're away, or even stay in my campervan in your driveway! I'm reliable, trustworthy, and aim to provide you with peace of mind.

“Kattie was incredible! We had a last minute family emergency and she came to help. My dogs have absolutely loved her. I have several special needs dogs with meds needed. She was comfortable and great with administering them. We got daily pictures which helped out our minds at ease. If you need a great person that goes above and beyond for your pups this is your lady. Thanks again Kattie.”

“Tekera was amazing, communicates well, punctual and very sweet. My big girls loved her and didn’t want to see her go. We will be booking her again.”


About: What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and the genuine care I give to each pet. I take the time to understand their needs and routines so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.I also work a part-time position at the post office in Athens, which is a great perk because I get to see lots of dogs on my route. It’s a fantastic way to combine my love for animals with my daily routine! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, I currently work a part-time job and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I currently live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and am working toward getting a house soon. I’m flexible and happy to provide care that fits your pet’s needs and what you’re most comfortable with.

About: What truly sets me apart is my commitment to communication. I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed notes after each visit or walk, so you always feel connected to your pet. My background also includes volunteer work at a local animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience handling dogs with special needs and anxiety. You can count on me to treat your pet and home with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own. Reliability, compassion, and peace of mind—that’s what I bring to every visit. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize creating a consistent and safe environment for every pet in my care, whether that means early morning walks, timely feedings, or engaging play sessions throughout the day. I incorporate time each day to monitor health, behavior, and comfort, ensuring pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away. On a weekly basis, I plan for special outings, grooming (if needed), and ongoing communication with pet owners to provide updates and maintain trust. Caring for animals is more than a job—it’s a responsibility I take seriously, and I structure my schedule to reflect that commitment. I have a fenced in privacy fence back yard! As well as a temperature controlled garage if needed to separate! I have an extra crate if needed as well!

About: Since I was a child, I've been raising and taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. I've nursed plenty of bottle babies- kittens, puppies and even rodents and farm animals. I've worked at the Chattanooga Zoo and volunteered at shelters across the country, so there's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't seen before! I currently work full-time with Tuesday and Wednesday off, and I'm free in the afternoon as well. I usually have availability to step away as needed. I love matching a pet's energy and I'm happy hanging out on the couch or running circles in the yard- whatever the situation calls for!

“Had a great experience! Would definitely use again!”

About: With over a decade of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, I bring a calm, reliable presence your pup can trust. I’ve spent the last 3 years training dogs and currently foster for GSP Rescue in the Southeast—successfully placing pups in loving homes. Whether your dog needs playtime, cuddles, structure, or a little extra patience, I’ve got you covered! I currently work a hybrid schedule in the office and from home. I am available weekends and love to take the pups on rides in the car if they enjoy it. We love to get out and hike or take Remy for a drive to get coffee and pup cups. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac with peaceful neighbors. We have a completely fenced in yard with about .3 acres of area to sniff and dig. (yes, we let them dig) We love to spoil with cuddles and toys and treats. Structure time with toys and training time will always be a part of our care too. I have 3+ years training our dog and believe in short training sessions regardless of knowledge level.

Devin H.

“Had a great experience! Would definitely use again!”


Katherine & Kevin H.
“Katherine took excellent care of our dog Bear while we were on vacation. I never once had to worry about how he was doing. She gave updates every day and sent pictures to us. She even took him out on walks and to play at the park. Their dog Remi is precious and gets along great with other dogs so Bear had a playmate the whole time. We know Bear got extra attention and belly rubs the whole time and he came back happy and well taken care of. I 100% would recommend her to take care of anyone’s pup. She goes above and beyond!”
