“She took great care of Dixie! Super flexible and always sent photos. I can tell when Dixie is treated well when we show up to a dog sitter and leave, she loved it! Definitely plan on having Dixie back”

About: *Important* I just had a baby in February so all dogs must be okay with small babies! 💙 We're a package deal! I've had dogs my whole life, from big to small, they are all my favorite! This is the first time I've had an empty nest! ❤️ I have experience from newborn puppies all the way up until senior dogs. I've dog sat for friends and family my whole life. I love animals as if they were my kids, and would love an opportunity to care for your furbabies as my own. My schedule is pretty flexible! Tell me about your pets needs and we can go over how I can provide the best care for them! I will treat your babies, of any kind, as if they were my own. I love cuddles on the couch, walks, playing and taking naps! We can work on tricks too! I can also clean and take care of plants or anything else if needed!

“Remington gets so excited when we arrive. It's a comfort knowing Remington is happy there. She takes excellent care of my pup! So happy we found someone we can trust with our Remington.”

About: Hi my name is Katie and I have always loved animals! I am open to watching animals of any kind (dogs, cats, horses, etc). I have two doodles that are extremely laid back, lazy yet playful, and friendly. They love other dogs and they also get along great with cats! I am active and spend most of my weekends outside. I recently relocated to Nashville from Florida. I have countless repeat clients and can give many referrals! I was very sad to leave my clients and am hoping to find many more here in TN as I absolutely love what dog sitting. I live in my cozy home on 5 acres in Burns TN. The front portion of the yard is fenced. Cattle fencing along whole back perimeter of property. Plenty of room to run! I also live 15 mins from Bowie nature park so I can take your pup out for hours to play. If you have an older dog or a dog that doesn't love playing you can be confident they will still have a relaxing and quiet stay. If you're looking to wear out your pup for the day or just looking for an honest, reliable sitter then I am here! I also have a pond that all the dogs love to swim and play fetch in. I can ensure your dog will have a blast at my place! My pets are my children and are treated as such! My daily schedule works around them and their needs. I ensure that the pets in my care are happy, safe, and healthy (mind body and soul). I will treat your pets as if they were my own! I am all about whatever will make your pet most comfortable. Whether its spending more time outdoors and getting in some exercise or hanging around in the A/C snuggled up on the sofa! Currently working fully remote so I am home 5/7 days of the week. The other days I am only out for a few hours at a time! I also have the ability to take your pup with me to run errands if needed! Dogs can be crated if needed and also separated if needed. Feeding time is always done in separate areas of the home to prevent any accidents

“Christopher was great. My 1 year old pup had no issues. Christopher was very quick to response to all my questions and provided updates during the stay.”

“Ute was great proving day care for our new puppy. As he was in a new home and trying to adapt to life without his mom and littermates, Ute went the extra mile to attend to his needs as a young puppy. I highly recommend Ute!”

About: Welcome! Hi! We’re Madison and Kelly her mom, a mother-daughter pet sitting team with a lifelong love of animals. We understand that pets are family, and our goal is to provide dependable, loving care while you’re away. As lifelong pet owners, we’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals over the years. Madison also participated in FFA and 4-H for three years, gaining hands-on experience with animal care and responsibility. Today, our family includes a spunky black cat named Binx, who keeps us entertained every day. We also have an 11-year-old in our home who loves animals and is respectful of pets and their needs. We pride ourselves on being honest, reliable, and communicative. Whether you’re away for a long day, a weekend trip, or an extended vacation, we’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. We currently offer drop-in visits and are happy to accommodate your pet’s individual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, litter box cleaning, and plenty of affection. We also have a securely fenced yard, providing a safe space for dogs to play and enjoy outdoor time. Every pet is unique, and we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work full-time during the week, while my mom is a stay-at-home mom who homeschools my younger brother. This allows us to provide consistent care and flexibility throughout the day. My mom is available for daytime visits, potty breaks, feedings, walks, and companionship, while I handle morning, evening, and weekend care. Together, we make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout their stay. Because we work as a team, your pets are rarely without someone checking in on them, and we can easily accommodate most feeding schedules, medication routines, and exercise needs. Caring for animals is something we genuinely enjoy, so spending time with pets is already a regular and rewarding part of our weekly routine Whether we are caring for pets in our home or in a client’s home, our goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client’s home, we follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration, litter box cleaning, and any special needs. We know pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, so we work to maintain their routine while providing plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. We also send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. For pets staying in our home, they become part of the family. We provide a safe, supervised environment with a securely fenced yard for outdoor play and exercise. Pets receive plenty of attention, enrichment, potty breaks, and comfortable places to rest. We carefully monitor interactions with other animals and can separate pets when needed to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. Every pet is unique, and we take the time to get to know their personality, preferences, and needs so they receive individualized care and plenty of love while you’re away

About: Dogs have always been part of my everyday life. I’m not just a sitter; I’m a genuine animal lover who understands how important your pup is to you. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, giving each the patience, love, and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. My own dog, Dottie, is a gentle, social butterfly who loves making new furry friends. She’s well-traveled, kid-friendly, and has even been a source of comfort for people in my corporate office. If your pup loves companionship, they’ll have a ready-made best friend waiting here. I work 100% from home, which means your pet will never be left feeling lonely. I have the flexibility to give them plenty of attention throughout the day — walks, backyard playtime, cuddle breaks, or quiet time if that’s their speed. Daily care isn’t something I squeeze in; it’s a natural and joyful part of my routine. Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My half-acre backyard is fully fenced with a spacious patio and a covered area for shade, perfect for supervised play or lounging. Inside, your dog will be welcomed like family — cozy, cared for, and never crated unless that’s part of their routine. I get to know each dog’s personality and needs so I can mirror their home life as much as possible. I keep things consistent, calm, and full of love. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest communication every step of the way.

About: I have extensive experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, breeds, types, colors, and temperaments. I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, frogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a lizard. (I once had a pet worm in an animal cracker box. I thought he would like living in a little zoo.) For 7 years I took care of my disabled mom as well as 5 dogs and 2 cats. During that time, I also worked as a foster volunteer for Music City Pug Rescue–most of which were geriatric surrenders whose owners had passed away or moved into a nursing facility. While I questioned my own sanity at the time, looking back now, those were some of the very best days of my life! Today I only have one dog, Marley, (my lucky charm rescue–a Tibetan Terrier who was just hours away from euthanasia when I saw his picture online) and I am renting my home. So while I can't board your pets, I am happy to take care of them at their own home! Sadly I have lost pets to terrible chronic illnesses like cancer and diabetes. I've been through two torn ACL surgeries, one hip surgery, blindness, deafness, and incontinence. My current pup, little Marley, has been paralyzed twice. The first time, I was able to afford an expensive back surgery. But when it happened again six months post-op, I rehabilitated him myself. Now, 6 years later, he's still walking! I thank God every morning and night for giving me another day with him. My experience caring for all of these dogs and their health problems means that I know how to care for their special needs. Whether it's taking a dog to weekly chemo treatments or giving him two shots of insulin each day, I am capable of caring for your pets and promise to do so just like they are my own. Whether it's for a few minutes, a few days, or even a few weeks, I would love to spoil your pet(s) with lots of hugs,and kisses. Not to mention walks, toys, fur brushings, head massages, playtimes, and treats–at your request, of course! Plu$, I am always willing to work with you on rates, so don't hesitate to make an offer. No matter the price, I promise to give you the best service possible. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ I can design and 🧧 💰I can create a special GIFT CERTIFICATE for any of my services (final booking will be based on availability) I work from home and am free to pet sit, walk, feed, and take them on potty breaks throughout the day. While I only have availability to sit 41 dog at my home during the day, I am enabled to stay at your home for half an hour....or 24 -- or even a couple of weeks if that's what you need! (While I have extended stay rates listed, I am open to discussing long-term or permanent services, too. Just ask!) I do have a small dog and I take him with me everywhere. So if you do need someone for overnight services at your home, I will be bringing him with me. I will treat your canine and/or feline fur babies (or scaly ones!) just like they're my own. Likewise, I will care for your home with respect and with the utmost confidentiality. I can be as discreet as you need me to be, or I can take your pets to visit their friends if that's what you want me to do. For at-home pet sitting, I will meet with you and your pets beforehand to give you peace of mind. We can get as detailed as you want. Whether you give me a typed document outlining their care plan, or just hand me a key and tell me when to stop by, I am happy to accommodate you either way!

“Great communication, patient with our small dog. Lots of walks and updates! I couldn’t recommend Robin enough. We will always use her when we are in town.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and could not imagine life without them! Pets deserve all of the attention and love even when you’re gone. I understand the stress of having to leave your pup and can assure you they’ll be in great hands! We’ll go on walks, play throughout the day and snuggle at night. I work from home full time. I am here to hang with them and keep them busy while you are gone. I take my own pup on daily walks and Riley loves to have a friend around. I have lots of grass around my apartment and a big dog park for them to play. I also love going on walks with them and being active if that’s what they like!

“Sloane was so kind and took such good care of my girl! I will definitely reach out to her again for my pet sitting needs.”

Samantha S.

“Kathy & Gale are absolutely phenomenal. I never worry when I leave my fur baby with them as I know they're taking extra good care of him! They send me photos and updates throughout the day while he's there. And he always looks SO HAPPY! And of course makes himself at home. Kathy & Gale have been such a blessing to me since I recently moved to Nashville last year. I travel a lot for my job and they are always so accommodating of my last minute trips. ”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and horses most of my life and just generally enjoy their company. I am familiar w administering meds, adept at noticing issues and detail oriented. I am available full time during the week at my home and can do morning and evening drop-ins as well. Overnight stays are available as well. I have a fenced in yard, a pool for those that like to swim. A large area for running when weather permits. My home includes two kitty cats and one medium-sized gentle doodle who enjoys playing and snoozing depending on what your dog enjoys. :)

“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”

Emily C.

“Belle was very good about explaining everything---areas available to the dog, other dogs at the home, toys, food, water, vet etc. Everything was clean. It was the first time my dog had been left with someone other than myself and so it was all new to him. I felt confident that Flynn was well taken care of and will use Belle again.”

Celeste C.

“Our dog Greta was so happy with Jamie! She was flexible with our varying hours and very helpful throughout. We’ll definitely book her again next time we’re in Franklin. You can’t go wrong choosing Jamie as your pet sitter.”

Scott M.

“Taylor is amazing!!! She genuinely cared for Jackson. He was really sad when we left and she made him feel loved. When we returned, we could tell he had a great time with Taylor. We knew he trusted her when Taylor sent a picture of Jackson napping and he was lying upside down. He only does that when he trusts people. We will definitely reach out to Taylor again for day care.”
