Customized services include 30, 45, and 60-minute drop-in pet care visits, dog sitting, cat sitting, dog walking, mini-farm pet sitting, extended in-home daily visits, as well as basic and overnight pet sitting visits.

Evidence-based dog training services, a specialty service we offer, has been especially important in helping leash-reactive or fear sensitive dogs (who may not have had these opportunities in the past) gain new social skills.

“Choice Pet Sitters has taken care of my two beloved pets on many occasions. The entire staff has a definite knack for taking care of and interacting with four leggeds of all varieties. My two dogs are precious to me, but when they’re in the care of Choice Pet Sitters, I have complete confidence that they’re going to be loved and impeccably attended to. I love the way they leave me extensive notes, scrupulously documenting the details of their visits and the behavior and state of my pets. I can best sum it up this way: they take care of and attend to my pets as well as I would. And my dogs are nothing short of adoring toward every member of their staff who has cared for them. They are so responsible and attentive that once, when I forgot to call and let them know that I’d arrived home, they called me, another reflection of their commitment to putting pets’ needs first. I recommend them whole heartedly and without the slightest reservation or criticism.”

Pet Sitters International Review
“Choices Pet Sitters has been a lifesaver the last few years. Getting the cat in a cage, and off to boarding, was extremely traumatic for both of us! My cat was such a terrible guest, so my vet asked that I find a pet sitter from now on. Finding Linda and Choices has been a dream! No more boarding problems. No more “cage fighting”! Miss Linda comes and takes wonderful care of my kitty each day, is very thorough about feeding and litter box and plays her music while she visits. She will even text you with each visit to give you an update if you want. Extremely security conscious, which I appreciate while I’m away.”
Michelle Hargett
What I appreciate most about Choices Pet Sitters is Linda Ross. Linda is a professional! Pet sitting is not Linda’s side job-it’s what she loves. She is extremely good at it, so good , in fact that on my latest five-day trip, my Rat Terrier didn’t even give me a guilt trip when I got home!
Linda Is extremely professional, responsible and caring.
Her scheduling system is very easy to use and she provides very personalized care-easy to reach and gives detailed updates after each visit. I will continue to use Linda with Choices Pet Sitters and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their Fur Babies!”

Pet Sitters International Review
“We recently moved to Pickens County and needed to find a pet sitter for our two cats. I saw Linda’s ad on the bulletin board in Bent Tree. We made contact and set up for a meet and greet.
Linda has pet sat for us three times now. She is absolutely wonderful. I believe she is the best pet sitter we have ever had. Linda is very professional and very experienced. She takes additional courses in her field to expand her knowledge to better care for your pets.
Linda has excellent communication skills which is very important to me. We receive photos with daily updates. I definitely recommend Linda and service.”
Kathy Ciomek
“For my FB loves in North Cherokee and Pickens County
‼️‼️. Linda Ross is absolutely the BEST pet sitter we have EVER hired!!!!
This is her BUSINESS and she goes above and beyond to help you completely at ease while you are away. We receive an email with photos after her visit so if you NEED to see that photo of your dog, cat, donkey, sheep, goat, chicken or duck you will have that peace of mind.
Linda has also saved one of my animals who was choking.
I can’t say enough great things about the professionalism of Choice Pet Sitters!!! Contact me if you need any more accolades!!!” #themisfitfarm
