Recs for a Cat Sitter in Atlanta
January 14, 2018 2:05 PM Subscribe
I've recently moved into a new neighborhood & my go-to pet sitter friend isn't in range anymore.
Any recs? Called a few places that allegedly serve our part of town (IP north of I-20) but getting calls back has proved hard. Is this a job for mefi jobs?) Thank you! I'm looking to pay ~$30/visit for two gentle cats but lmk if that's not reasonable.

When I moved to a new neighborhood, I asked my old pet sitter who she recommended in my area.

We actually found our last cat sitter on Pet Sitters International. Rover.com also has cat sitters.
Sorry I can't make a personal rec. I agree that your old sitter might know someone who can help you out.

If you’re near any of the colleges I’m sure you’d find a students who is happy for the extra cash- perhaps focus on grad students?

Do you have a neighborhood Facebook group (or are you on Nextdoor)? The pet sitter question comes up every once in a while on mine, and they might have better recommendations for your area. I had the same experience as you with not getting a call back from one place and it took a while to get a sitter assigned to me when I initially contacted Frogs to Dogs.
