Colleen came over for a week to care for our two cats, one who hides from everyone but myself and my husband. The first day we were gone, we were shocked to see a picture of our scaredy cat! And a picture of them each day we were gone. Both of the cats loved her, she really is a cat whisperer! Colleen was very dependable and not only took care of my fur babies, she also took care of my plant babies and brought in the mail! I highly recommend her!

Colleen is a TRUE cat whisperer! My husband and I have been needing to get our cat groomed - he has bad dander and oily hair - I have tried to bathe him on my own and have not been able to! Colleen calmed him, was so gentle and kind, and was able to bathe him! It was a miracle! You can tell that she is a genuine animal lover and I would trust her with any of my fur babies!

Omg. Where to start???? Colleen is AMAZING! Look no further for your pet-sitting needs!!! I found Colleen because I ended up with a 2 month job that coincided with the start of my boyfriends deployment. I was so nervous about leaving my two cats for that long and not even sure I could find someone who could commit to sitting for that length of time! Colleen took it on with no issue. She’s a true animal whisperer, one of my boys is very shy and he took to her like they were old pals. She was super responsive whenever I had questions, sent me updates and pictures, and was totally unfazed by my shifting schedule. I was so anxious about leaving my babies and that anxiety disappeared as soon as I met Colleen. I actually ended up making a booking with her for a future vacation before I even got home. I could absolutely go on, but bottom line?? BEST PET SITTER EVER!!!!

Colleen has become our go-to pet sitter. All we wanted was someone we could wholeheartedly trust to take care of our animals so that we didn’t have to worry or check behind them. We found that trust in Colleen. Now we can travel without being anxious that our horses, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks & fish aren’t being taken care to the standards that we take care of them. I think our dogs actually miss her when we get home. We are so happy to have found Colleen.

Colleen has been taking care of my animals for nearly twenty years. Ok, she is my daughter, but there's a little more to the story. I used to breed and show Persian cats, and while I was away at shows, Colleen was responsible for a whole bunch of persnickety cats and kittens. She fed, watered, cleaned eyes and noses, brushed out knots before they became disasters, and gave scheduled medications. I have never worried about my kitties when Colleen took care of them. Now I have two Chow-chows with allergies and separation anxiety, and a Husky with behavioral issues, in addition to my Persian cats. Colleen keeps them when I'm out of town, and follows my instructions to the letter. If Colleen can't sit for me, I just stay home.

Colleen does an awesome job at what she does!! I felt comfortable and happy to leave my kitties at home while we went out of town for a week. I knew they were going to be taken care of and they were, it was like we never left! We got pictures of them everyday. She was wonderful!

We had Colleen come over twice a day, mainly to take care of our dog, Jenny, while we were out of town a few days. Jenny LOVES Colleen, we were super pleased, and glad she was making sure the cats and chickens were okay as well! Getting pictures was a bonus! I highly recommend Colleen!

Colleen does a great job! She is quick to respond and was able to continue walking and caring for my dogs when I unexpectedly had to lengthen a trip.

My biggest concern when I go out of town is who is going to take care of my fur babies. Now I never have to worry about it! Colleen sends pictures & updates on every visit. Not only that, she brought in our packages from the porch and SWIFFERED OUR FLOORS from our dogs muddy footprints. I cannot recommend her enough!!!!!

FAQ
Are you insured and bonded?

Yes we are! We use KennelPro for both insurance and bonding.

What area’s do you serve?

The greater Savannah area. The islands, downtown, midtown, Tybee, Pooler, Berwick, Georgetown, and Richmond Hill.

What payments do you accept?

Credit and Debit through SquareUp. Cash and check. 

What benefit is there to hiring a pet sitter?

Pets are their most happiest and comfortable when they are in their own home. You having to leave your fur kids is stressful enough on you both. Why add to that stress by removing them from the one environment that they feel the safest and most secure in? Having an experienced pet sitter allows your pet to maintain their everyday routine and receive the love and care they need right in the comfort of their own home. No need to impose on family and friends or have to operate your schedule according to kennel hours. When you come home your pets will be waiting to welcome you.

What is a Meet and Greet?

This is the initial meeting. The visit usually lasts between 15-30 minutes and will provide time for you to show us where all your pets, food, litter boxes and supplies are located. This will also allow us to evaluate your animals. Prior to the meet and greet, all documents should be filled out.

What pets do you care for?

We care for your stand cats and dogs. We also care for small caged animals such as chinchillas, hamsters, lizards, snakes, and some insects. Barn animals are also a speciality of ours!

Will I always get the same sitter?

We always strive to assign the same pet sitter for your visits, but sometimes its just not feasible. Please understand that pet sitters also take time off or have scheduling conflicts so in that case you would be assigned another sitter.

Do you charge extra for holidays? What are your holidays?

Yes, we are at your service 24/7 365 days per year. Holidays are a very busy time for us. We charge an additional fee per each service scheduled on all dates listed below to motivate and compensate staff for working on their holiday. Our Holidays are: New Year’s Day, President’s Day, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Father’s Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Thanksgiving Friday, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve.

You operate on time ranges. What does that mean for me?

A time range is the window of time that a staff will arrive between to visit your pet or walk your dog. For example, a dog walk or pet visit can be scheduled at 8-10am, 11am-1pm, 5pm-7pm, etc and the dog walker  or pet sitter will arrive within that range to care for your pet.

Is a tip expected?

Our dog walkers and pet sitters don’t expect a tip, but most certainly appreciate it.
If your dog walker or pet sitter did a nice job and you would like to leave a tip, you may put it in a sealed envelope on the kitchen counter with their name on it; or, you may mail it into us and we would be happy to give it to them.
