About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was a kid, and I absolutely adore them - so this made it a no brainer for me to continue caring for dogs throughout high school & college! When I first began working with dogs, I devoted much of my time to learning & identifying their behaviors so that I could take care of them by truly understanding them - which is knowledge that I still think of and use to this day! I’ve been consistently pet sitting dogs since I was 12 - and I’m 20 now! I fill up much of my time caring for my friend’s dogs as well for those in my community, all of which I treat as if they were my own! I work at a Pet Lodging/Daycare facility in my hometown and it truly is the best job I’ve ever had. Getting to take care of and hang out with dogs genuinely brings me so much joy and I look forward to continue doing so! I’m currently a full time student, so any time that I’m not in classes/on projects - I’m more than happy to lend a helping hand and take care of whatever your dog might need! I’ve listed my availability below! Mon: 5AM-10AM / 2PM-11PM / Overnight Care Tuesday: 5AM-4PM / 8PM-11PM / Overnight Care Wednesday: 5AM-10AM / 2PM-11PM / Overnight Care Thursday: 5AM-4PM / 8PM-11PM / Overnight Care Friday: All day / Overnight Care Saturday: All day / Overnight Care Sunday: All day / Overnight Care In my clients homes, I treat their space and animals with the upmost respect and attentive care. I note all safety concerns and practice focused awareness so that I can ensure your home & pet remain incredibly safe and cared for! I always review notes from pet owners - which helps me prioritize respecting their wishes & boundaries, as well as fulfilling any instructions/requests tied to the care of their pets!

“Alanna was amazing!! She took fantastic care of Roadie, sent lots of photos and updates, and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She also took great consideration of my home, and left everything in perfect condition. She was extremely considerate on all levels and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet/home sitter!”


“We were in town for our daughter’s wedding & stay downtown Savannah at one of the historic hotels. The day before the wedding, we realized our 2 Shih Tzu girls were anxious & we needed someone to sit with them during the wedding & reception. Signed up for Rover & Jessica answered our post for help! Jessica came by the day before for a quick meet & greet & knew right away she was the perfect person to watch our girls. She was on time & the girls were excited when she arrived. Jessica took the girls for a stroll in their stroller & even brought them over to the outdoor wedding site. She brought them over to us after the wedding & we were able to take pictures. She then brought them back to the hotel to chill. Jessica has a real love for animals. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies. She put our mind at ease & we knew our girls were loved while we were watching our daughter get married!”


“Katherine did an outstanding job staying in our home with our 80 pound greyhound and tabby cat! They loved her company and felt comfortable with her from the minute they met her! She did everything we asked and gave us so much peace of mind. Her love of fur babies shines through. We're looking forward to having her stay with our pets again soon!”


“Sharon was exceptional. Sharon house sat my two golden retrievers and was so so sweet towards them. I got pictures throughout the day and would highly recommend Sharon to look after your fur baby!”


About: I have a Cardigan Welsh corgi and she is the most fun! She is very expressive with ALL the personality but also the chillest dog you will ever meet. She loves to do whatever you’re doing, so if you’re relaxing, she’s relaxing. If you're eating, she's staring. She is the queen of the house but she loves to play with others and we welcome any visits! I would love to make your pet feel right at home with mine! I currently live in a one story home (with a fenced in backyard) in a super walkable neighborhood - so no trouble at all getting out and about for playtime. I can't recall a time when I didn't have pets, so I am extremely comfortable and I love them more than anything! I will send you updates and pictures throughout the visit and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable. I’m currently only doing part time contract work, so I have ample time to spend with your pet. Unless otherwise stated, my attention will be solely focused on your pet (and mine!). I currently have a fenced in backyard and dogs are allowed anywhere in my house and on my couch, they are treated like humans here!

“We can’t recommend Renee enough! We had plans to go out of town for a family weekend at our daughter’s college. Sadly, a hurricane came through the night before! Renee went above & beyond to make it to our home as scheduled to sit with our pup. She kept us informed throughout the weekend, & would’ve sent photos & videos if there had been adequate cell coverage & WiFi at our house after the storm. Renee’s communication was excellent. Our home was just as we left it with the exception of our yard. We left town in a hurry & decided to clean up the yard debris when we returned. Renee surprised us & did most of it for us! Our yellow lab was well cared for & enjoyed Renee’s company & all the walks & games of fetch. We will definitely book Renee again!”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was born. I love dogs so much and enjoy meeting new ones. I love animals so much and would love to do this for a while. I am currently employed and work 8:30-4:30 but have a good lunch hour. I love dogs so much and enjoy spending time with them. But I am available during the week to sit and/or walk animals when needed. I have had dogs my entire life and know how to walk them, feed them, and take them out when necessary. I am very experienced.

“Elena was great with our animals and our house! She came to meet everyone and get a rundown of everything before her time watching the house and took detailed notes and was ready when the day came! Our animals loved Elena and had a great time, she will be our go-to sitter moving forward!”



“Emily was very professional. She came on her own time to meet our fur babies before our trip so they would be comfortable with her staying in their home. She sent pictures and communicated throughout our trip and left our home clean and organized. We hope to have Emily again.”


“Overall very happy with the care shown to my cats while we were away. It was the first time leaving them so we were nervous. But they were in good hands! They followed all the directions and were great about communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. Thank you guys again!”


About: I’ve helped my grandma with foster over the last decade. I have walked, fed, entertained, and did minor grooming for over hundreds of adorable puppies. Now I’m here to help any pet owners that just have too much on their paws I work part time over night at walmart so my days are almost completely clear for me to come walk you dogs, play with them, or watch over them and the house while you’re away I have worked with many dogs over the years, and have learned many signs of possible problems that can be easily avoided, as well as have the strength to hold a dog back on a lease if needed so I’ll be walking the dogs they won’t walk me

“Amy was so wonderful to watch our dog Lola while we were in town for a wedding. Lola takes a little time to warm up to new people and unfamiliar situations, and Amy was so lovely to meet us at the park the day before our event so Lola could get to know her. She took great care of our pup and sent photos while we were away. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone needing pet care. She's a natural with animals and it's clear she loves them.”


“Anthony did a great job house sitting my 3 pets for a weekend I was away. He gave me updates throughout the weekend and when I came home I felt they had been loved. I will definitely use his services again.”
