Sara Beth
East Ellijay, Georgia
25+ YEARS EXPERIENCE, OVER 100 SITS!
Sara has taken care of our creatures multiple times since she first sat for us in 2020. She has done both short- and long-term sits. This one was a long one, we were overseas, and I didn’t worry about Shauna one minute. Not one minute. Sara loves animals, and it shows in her care of them. Sara is also experienced as a house sitter, mature and self-sufficient, and careful with the household. In fact, she has been educating me on how to use my new air fryer! We come home to a clean house and happy dog. You can’t ask for more than that. And by now, we are more friends than host and sitter. Thank you, Sara!
Sheri

I am ready to love your Little ones along with respecting your home and privacy
Sheri was a totally fantastic sitter. She was neat and organized and responsive and communicated extremely well. Most importantly, she took fantastic care of my dog - walking her, playing with her, and seeing to her needs. She was great!
Nicole
East Ellijay, Georgia
Respectful, Neat, Energetic, Medical Professional and Lover of Fur Friends
We want to express our sincere thanks to Nicole and Gino for a great sit. As with all pet owners, we love our kitty dearly, and we could tell that Nicole and Gino love them too. They provided daily updates and sent daily pics. Chipper is a relatively easy sit and we're glad that Nicole and Gino got to experience some of the Knoxville area in the short time that they were here. Nicole also took care of our plants, both indoor and outdoor, and kept the house spotless. If they are ever available for a future sit, then they are welcome back at any time.
Melinda
East Ellijay, Georgia
Conscientious & Empathetic Professional To Love Your Pets & Home
Melinda was an AMAZING HouseSitter! She asked really thoughtful questions and went above and beyond in taking care of my home. In terms of my cats, she was absolutely wonderful; Melinda had patience and (more quickly than most) coaxed my quiet cat out. She also had a lot of patience with my energetic, mischievous little one! I am so appreciative and look forward to having Melinda come again.
Natalie
East Ellijay, Georgia
Natalie and Mark!- Travelers and Professional Pet Snugglers
Natalie and mark were Nina’s first sitters and they’ve set the bar high. Nina was very happy and well cared for, with updates and pictures sent during their stay which was much appreciated. Friendly, helpful, kind and caring and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them or indeed using them again. Thank you very much
Curtis
East Ellijay, Georgia
Active vibrant married couple wishing to care for your home and see the world
Curtis and Deena were excellent house sitters. They kept us informed and even had to deal with a few unexpected household maintenance and repair issues. They did so with grace and care for our home and our pets. We were so grateful to have them there. They also left our home spotless. We would highly recommend them and hope they will sit again for us in the future.
Roy
East Ellijay, Georgia
My human and Woody Woodpecker.
Roy was very attentive to our dog care directions; he was eager to learn about nearby walks. When he met our dog he gave him a good welcome and lots of TLC which continued thru the week! Roy checked in regularly while we were away and left the house as he found it - clean and tidy! We recommend him highly!

When I returned home , my house and yard were in perfect order . Wow!!! I feel extremely fortunate to have had Beth and Mark stay in my home . Many thanks to these wonderful people .
Gary
East Ellijay, Georgia
Retired " Tennis Dude " + Clown looking to love on your pets !
Gary was great. Otie was his normal healthy self and the house was clean on arrival. The only 4 star is for a suggestion-get a phone with a good GPS and more data to help getting to a remote place. He is a good house sitter. He sent regular messages and pictures. I recommend Gary.
Jane
East Ellijay, Georgia
Retired Principal ready to travel, help you and love your pets.
Jane is not a recommended petsitter if you have cats or if you want the house to be treated properly when you are away. 1) When she arrived the day before our departure, she didn’t show any interest in the cats, I had to suggest her several times to interact with the kitties in order to make sure the cats were used to her smell. 2) She acted in a superior attitude when I was giving instructions about how to feed the cats or understand their routines. 3) Since the moment we posted the sit offer, we were clear about the simple tasks: feed the cats 3 times a day, play with them, brush them, keep the house safe and clean, inform twice a day about what the cats ate with photos and videos. Her level of communication was minimum by whatsapp. Example of messages “Nala has not appeared yet this morning”, “not much to report”, “everyone has eaten well”, “all well fed”, “too busy feeding, taking pictures and answering your texts” 4) When we arrived the house was dirty (her bathroom had not been cleaned at all, she had not vacuumed nor mopped the floor, the kitchen was sticky) the basic rules of the house were cleaning the floor, kitchen (to avoid ants) and I specified the products to clean bathroom/toilet before leaving. The minimum ALL petsitters had done in the past before leaving were cleaning the basic areas. 5) Two windows were unlocked, when safety issues were explained as a main concern. The biggest window with access from the street was not locked with the screw (anyone could have entered the house) and the window of the guest room was not locked with the handle 6) She never sent a message after leaving the house making sure everything was ok and telling us if the cats were ok. Conclusion: We could clearly see she doesn’t like animals, especially cats, she came just to have a free place to visit the area (which is a very touristic place, mainly this time of the year, when the accommodations are really expensive), she had a bossy attitude and was clearly annoyed by our explanations of how to take care of the cats and house, her communication was not fluid (I had to send a message asking her how were the cats almost every day in order to get feedback), she was a person that clearly did not care about the basic level of cleaning. The only thing she did was feeding the cats at least once a day. When we arrived the cats were really hungry.
Reviews from Pet Owners
Mike
Mary was fantastic from start to finish and looked after our elderly dog with love and attention to her needs. She also looked after our home with respect and care. We couldn't have asked for a nicer sitter and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
Heather
Amanda was the perfect housesitter and pet sitter for our cat. She is organized and communicative, and took care to ensure she understood the guidelines for taking care of our home and our cat. She left our house in perfect condition and we returned home to one happy kitty! Would not hesitate to have Amanda housesit for us again or recommend her to others looking for a sitter.
Allison
Once again, having AnnaMarie take care of our pups was absolutely the right choice!! Her frequent updates, care of our house and fur babies was stellar! Although the dogs were thrilled to see us when we returned, as we chatted with Annemarie, we could see them continuing to go to her for affection and cuddles. It was so sweet to watch our one-year-old lick her ear and Annamarie just giggled and happily tolerated it. What a great sport😎. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would also suggest if you happen to see a less than perfect review for her ( there is only 1)I know the true story... it's unfortunate that some people are so unappreciative of someone who will go out of their way to care for their home and Pets (at no charge🙃🙃)-- it just boggles my mind and am confident they are not being honest! Suffice it to say she is a gem and perfect sitter in every way- if you can get a chance to book with her- do not hesitate! We truly think of her as part of our family now and all 5 of our pups would agree!
Barrett
Caitlyn, KJ, and their pup Sully were excellent house guests and pet sitters, and we would highly recommend them! I was able to meet Caitlyn and KJ prior to them house sitting for us, and we are always super appreciative when sitters are able to make that work and are willing to take time out of their schedule to come over and get the lay of the land. Their dog Sully was full of good boy energy and was a great playmate for our two Golden Retrievers. During the stay, Caitlyn & KJ sent us photos every day and followed all of our instructions for pet care to a T. They were super self-sufficient and gracious guests that left our place looking just like it did when we left, and we were very at peace knowing that our dogs were in great hands, getting lots of exercise, and romping around with new friend Sully. Don't hesitate to book this family of three, your house and your pets will be well-looked after!
Jenna
Felecia was an excellent sitter and perfect companion for Livi, our 3 yr old Aussie mix! She was always prompt with communication when needed, took great care of our pet and house and was just as clean coming home as we left it. I would not hesitate to recommend Felecia for other sits.
Nancy
Not only did our pets enjoy meeting Kelly and Christopher, my husband and I enjoyed meeting them as well! They are personable and kind, organized and communicative, and most of all excellent pet sitters.
Kelly and Chris are attentive housesitters. They went out of their way to connect with our dogs, especially Smitty, our rescue. The dogs were walked, brushed, and played with throughout the weeklong sit. They sent pics of how our fur babies were doing and truly seemed to enjoy their time with them. The peace of mind that comes with great house sitters who care for your precious pups and the home you love is priceless. Thank you once again, Kelly and Christopher! We hope to see you again!
Kim
Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month. I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did. Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why. Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her. I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love. Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her). She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants. We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup. Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet. Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs. I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁
Bonnie
Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers. I would recommend them over and over. I wish I could add numbers to the scale. They would get a 10+. Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate. They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left! I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

Ramona and Brandon were the perfect sitters! They rescued me and were very accommodating with my needs. Ramona's communication with me was A1. We spoke multiple times before she arrived and throughout the sit. She was good at keeping me updated and I was very grateful for that, being so far away. The pets gravitated toward them from the moment they arrived and you could see that all she and Brandon wanted to do was spoil the pets with lots of cuddles. My female pup was in heat and they handled that very well and were able to keep her and my male dog separated. I could only imagine how exhausting that may have been but they didn't complain one bit. Ramona and Brandon had to hand over the sit to another sitter and were kind enough to write out the details and everything they observed to make the transition a seamless one. I must say, it helped tremendously. I'd have them back in a heartbeat to sit for me as they showed that I could trust them, not only to take care of my pets but to respect my home they way they would their own. Thanks again for making my trip away worth it!
