Pet Sitting

🐾 Pet Sitting in East Cobb, Marietta, GA

Because your pets deserve someone who loves them like you do.

When I’m not behind the camera capturing furry smiles, I’m caring for pets in my own neighborhood — offering personalized, experienced pet sitting exclusively in East Cobb (Marietta, GA). Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a little peace of mind, I’m here to make sure your beloved companions are safe, comfy, and cared for like they’re my own.

🐶🐱 Dog & Cat Sitting (via Rover only)

I offer dog and cat sitting services through the Rover app — where you can view my calendar, book securely, and read reviews from local pet parents.

To book a dog or cat sitting session with me, simply visit my Rover profile and select the dates you need. I provide care tailored to your pet’s routine, quirks, and personality — whether they’re a couch potato, a window watcher, or a late-night zoomie master.

🛑 Please note: I only offer dog and cat sitting within East Cobb.

🐍🐹🐦 Exotic Pet Sitting (via Contact Form Only)

Got a more unusual pet? You’re in luck — I happily care for exotics, including:

• Rodents (guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, etc.)
• Reptiles (lizards, snakes, turtles, etc.)
• Amphibians (frogs, axolotls, salamanders, etc.)
• Birds
• Fish & aquatic tanks

Exotic pet sitting is offered at a flat rate of $25 per night, with no extra pet fees — because I know how hard it can be to find someone who actually understands their unique needs.

📬 To book exotic pet sitting, please use the contact form on my site or email WinkAndWagPhotography@gmail.com — Rover doesn’t currently support exotic pet bookings, so we’ll coordinate directly.

🧠 Why Trust Me?

Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am.

• I’ve had pets my entire life and currently share my home with over 20 animals, including dogs, reptiles, amphibians, guinea pigs, and fish.
• Since 2021, I’ve worked full-time at a pet store, gaining hands-on experience with everything from puppy nutrition to reptile husbandry.
• I understand signs of stress, illness, and environmental needs across a wide variety of species — and I don’t blink at a gecko, hiss at a snake, or flinch at a tarantula (ok, maybe just a little, but I’ll still feed it!).

Your pets are family, and I treat them like it — with knowledge, respect, and the kind of care they deserve while you’re away.

Here are a few testimonials straight from my Rover profile:

🏡 How I Do House Sitting (A Bit Differently!)

You might notice my house-sitting style isn’t the traditional “I move in while you’re gone” approach — and that’s by design.

My version of house sitting works more like extended, thoughtfully timed drop-in visits that ensure your pets get the attention and routine they’re used to — without the need for overnight stays.

Here’s how it works:

💸 Rate: Flat $50 per day

That includes three guaranteed drop-ins, which would normally total $75 if booked individually via the “drop-in” option on Rover. You save, and your pet gets consistent care throughout the day.

My Daily House Sitting Schedule

☀️ Morning Drop-In | 7-8 AM

• Morning walk with your dog(s) — time to sniff, potty, and greet the world
• Breakfast if applicable
• Fresh water bowls
• Then I head off to my full-time job

☁️ Afternoon Drop-In | 3-4 PM (varies slightly by day)

• Let-out time as soon as I arrive
• Playtime and/or cozy hangout session
• Potty breaks and cuddles
• Stay is typically 30–45 minutes

🌙 Evening Drop-In | Based on Your Pet’s Dinner Schedule

• I’ll arrive around your pet’s usual dinner time
• Potty break followed by dinner
• Post-meal relaxation and hangout time
• A final walk before I leave for the night

⚠️ No Overnight Stays — Here’s Why:

I do not sleep over at client homes. This is a personal boundary I’ve chosen, and it works really well for my clients — especially those who live in apartments, rental homes, or simply prefer not to have overnight guests.

While I may not be staying the night, your pets won’t be left without love. With three thoughtful visits spaced out across the day and evening, they’ll get plenty of attention, routine, and affection to keep them calm and happy until you’re back.

This system has worked beautifully for my regular clients, and I’m happy to adjust slightly based on your pet’s needs. If you’re unsure whether this style is the right fit for your pet, feel free to reach out — I’m always happy to chat and make sure we’re a good match!
