Just wanted to get out to any pet owners visiting or actually residing in Atlanta that Atlanta Pet Sitting is a great service to take care of your pooch or kitty.  For visitors to Atlanta...there are a good number of people who take their pets on vacation with them, but aren't able to take them on their day trips while in town.   Say you're visiting your friends who are petless and you bring your dog.  Can't take Fido to the Georgia Aquarium and the World of Coke, but he's used to his 2:00 pm walk everyday.  I bet if you give Atlanta Pet Sitting a call, they'll be able to take care of your dog while you're having fun experiencing all that Atlanta has to offer -- guilt-free.  This idea came to me and I wanted to share it.  

I've used Atlanta Pet Sitting once and will definitely be using them again.  Read my review of them here on Kudzu.com.  The BEST part about my pet sitting experience with them is that my pet sitter actually sent me text messages about my cat after her visits.  "Felix and I watched TV together; he looked great; he has beautiful eyes; he misses you but is doing very well."  I thought that was very cool!  For those of us who love our pets like our children, the assurance that they are doing well is a huge relief while we're away from them. 

I couldn't agree with Galfriday more. Pet sitters can be quite liberating and even a great experience for your pets. I have used Buckhead PetPals quite regularly and they are very reliable to the point that you can just schedule them online once your account is set up and they come to your house, let themselves in and take care of the pet. I know my dog gets a much better walk than my kids give him so I am sure he really enjoys being left in their hands. Only downside to their reliability and efficiency was this past holiday when the sitter operated on a no news is good news policy, but I was on the West Coast panicking that I didn't know if the sitter had shown up. After a panicked phone call to them I was reassured that all was well, and upon my return my dog looked a few pounds lighter from the added exercise.
