So amazing!!!! I had never left my sweet baby with anyone except my parents before. But when we all went on vacation together, I had to find someone - I’m SO happy/grateful that I found Bradishia. She knew I was nervous leaving Jelly, so she sent me a lot of pictures and updates which made me feel so much better. She left my apartment VERY clean and spotless and even washed the towels before leaving. She rocks!!

Ben did an amazing job watching our two dogs! It was the first time that we have left our puppy with anyone. Therefore, I was bit anxious but Ben was communicative and great with the dogs which put me at ease allowing us to enjoy our long weekend away. I was also very appreciative about his willingness to stay at our house in the middle of nowhere. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

About: I have had decades of experience walking and caring for dogs, cats, frogs, lizards, turtles, parrots, poultry and more. I have taken care of big dogs and little dogs, cats and kittens. I am familiar with giving medications to animals, as well. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule. I am a licensed paramedic and educator just earning extra income. I keep parrots and poultry currently with cats and dogs. I have had had herps and reptiles in the past, as well. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I know the anxiety of having to leave pets to get out of town and will do everything I can to make sure you don't regret it.

JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!

Delaney was fantastic! Was available sort of last-minute and took excellent care of the pets and the house. When I got home, I honestly couldn't tell anyone had even been here, but for the fact that the pets were happy and healthy. :-) She sent updates and pictures, and I never had a worry. I look forward to having her here again.

About: No animal is too much for me! Snakes, rats, anything! I love any species of animal, and no animal is too hard for me to take care of! The rarer the better! Just give me the rundown of what your pet needs, and I can do it! No matter how nasty or scary! I can care for pets as much as you need! Obviously, I need to take care of my little kitty, Binx, but I will always find time for your pets as well! Any pet is as precious as my own to me! I care for my kitty, Binx, like he is my own son. He is spoiled, and everyone loves him! He is the kindest kitty and was raised to know what and what not to do. He's a smart little fella, and the way I raised him is definitely a huge factor in this.

We would highly recommend Jay! - Always arrived on time - gave medication on the right time - played with and walk the doggie - great communication and very considerate. After a previous the dog sitter cancel the day-of, Jay’s willingness to help and great communication were what we need to calm our minds and hearts - we were already on a cruise and our little girl was by herself. Our doggie is super picky about people (she ignores those she doesn’t care about and plays with those she likes), she is older dog with lots of special needs (medication and stuff). After Jay told me she was playing with her toys, that was such a relief for us, because right then we knew Jay was a good fit for our little Ginger. Details: we hired Jay for 5 days to dog sit for most of the day, as our doggie needs to go out a lot due to her medication and health issues. No accidents seemed had happened and Jay kept the house clean and organized.

Five stars isn’t enough — Preston is the real deal. As professional dog daycare and boarding operators, we have extremely high standards for who we trust with our animals and our home. Preston didn’t just meet those standards — he obliterated them. Our four boys were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved when we got home. The house was spotless. And Preston had already handled everything. Here’s what truly set him apart: he noticed an ear infection developing in one of our dogs — something that requires a practiced, attentive eye — arranged transportation to and from the vet, cleaned the ear, and administered the post-visit medication. All on his own. That’s not just good pet sitting. That’s genuine expertise and real initiative. We’ve been in the pet care industry. We know what great care looks like. Preston is the rare kind of sitter you hope exists but rarely find on any platform. If you’re on the fence about booking him — stop deliberating. Book Preston. We won’t use anyone else.

About: I’ve been working with animals for 15 years, caring for dogs, cats, birds. I have handled breeds that are small to very large. I am available for walking, dog park visits, bathing them is optional, and I am open to any breed. I have always been great with pets, we have 3 of our own who are amazing with everyone and other animals. I am very flexible with my schedule. I love to ensure they are getting their exercise as needed, as well as a well rounded diet. I am a stay at home mom so I am very happy to be with them however they require. We use leashes and harnesses for outside. We have a dog park close by that’s fenced in and safe for giving them running time and ability to play freely

About: I’ve grown up with pets. I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was little. People know they can rely on me to give their pet the amazing treatment they deserve! As an online college student at UTK, I'm your ideal pet sitter, always available and ready for anything your furry friends need. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just some extra TLC, I prioritize your pet's happiness and well-being above all else. Throughout the day, between classes and assignments, I'm there to ensure your pets feel loved and attended to.

With a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for animals, I'm not just a pet sitter – I'm a trusted companion for your pets, ready to make every moment special. Choose me, and rest assured your pets will receive top-notch care and endless affection. When it comes to caring for both cats and dogs, safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities. While cats won't be venturing outdoors, I ensure they have a stimulating indoor environment with cozy spots, toys, and scratching posts to keep them happy and entertained. In my home, for our canine companions, leash walks are the name of the game to ensure their safety and enjoyment during outdoor excursions. Meanwhile, our feline friends have their own special corners where they can lounge and play to their heart's content. From playful pups to curious cats, I welcome pets of all sizes and personalities with open arms. Whether it's a solo adventure or a cozy cuddle session, I tailor my care to meet the individual needs of each furry friend, ensuring they feel loved and cherished. While outdoor adventures may be off the table for our feline friends, there are plenty of indoor activities to keep them engaged and content. Whether it's interactive playtime, cozy naps in sunny spots, or exploring new toys, I'm dedicated to providing a stimulating environment that brings out the best in every pet. So, whether it's a purring cat or a wagging tail, rest assured your beloved pets are in caring hands. With safety, trust, and a whole lot of love, I'm here to make every moment special for your furry family members, indoors and out.

About: Hi, I’m Cas – I'm here to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free at home! I’ve worked in animal shelters and as a veterinary assistant, so I’ve had hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m familiar with canine & feline CPR and first aid, and I have extensive experience stabilizing critically ill and crashing animals. Whether your pet is perfectly healthy, managing a chronic condition, or just needs a little extra support, I’m confident and comfortable providing high-quality care. Some of the conditions I’ve worked with include diabetes (including insulin administration - and I'm a T1D myself, so you can trust that I truly understand the complicated ins & outs of diabetic care, hypo/hyperglycemia, and monitoring), kidney disease (including administration of subQ fluids), allergies (both skin-related and dietary), and senior pet care. I’m experienced with both oral and injectable medications, and I always prioritize a gentle, stress-free approach. I am a Fear-Free Certified professional, I prioritize minimizing stress for pets during interactions. I will work to make every experience as calm and comfortable as possible for your animal. When you entrust me with your animal companion's care, you can expect a reliable, gentle, and knowledgeable approach. I offer pet sitting in your home because I truly believe pets are happiest in the space they know best. I do my best to maintain their routines and provide comfort, enrichment, and calm companionship while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting your pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care naturally fits into my flexible schedule, which means I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday playtime, or scheduled medications, I’m able to provide care that matches your animal companion's routine without conflicts or time constraints. The most comforting place for an animal is their own home, surrounded by familiar scents, sounds, and routines. That’s why I offer in-home pet sitting—so your animal companion can stay relaxed and happy in the space they know best. Whether it’s curling up in their favorite sunny spot or sticking to their usual feeding schedule, I make sure everything feels just right while you’re away. My goal is to provide gentle, attentive care that keeps your animal comfortable and your mind at ease.

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have spent the last several years providing dedicated pet care for friends and family. My experience ranges from standard pet sitting to managing more complex care requirements, ensuring that every animal in my charge feels safe and well-attended. I am highly comfortable with dogs of all sizes, from small to large breeds. Beyond basic care, I have significant experience assisting dogs with special needs, including the accurate administration of medications. In addition to my canine experience, I am fully equipped to care for cats and all of their specific needs. My background also extends to farm animals; I have hands-on experience caring for chickens, goats, pigs, and turkeys. If you have a multi-pet household, I am more than capable of managing several animals at once, ensuring each one receives the attention they deserve. ​I am available any day of the week for evening bookings starting after 6:00 PM. I understand that schedules can change unexpectedly, so I am open to last-minute requests and overnight stays within this timeframe. Whether you need an evening check-in or extended overnight care, I am committed to providing your pets with a high-quality, stress-free experience. While I do not offer boarding services in my own home at this time, I specialize in providing dedicated care within the comfort and familiarity of your pet's own environment. I am available for evening care (after 6:00 PM) and overnight stays, ensuring your home remains secure and your pets remain in their established routines. ​ ​I believe that every animal has a unique personality and set of needs. I take extra care to be exceptionally gentle and patient, especially with pets that may be shy, senior, or have special requirements. Whether I am administering medication or simply providing companionship, my priority is to move at the pet’s pace to build a foundation of trust. ​ ​When staying in your home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean environment and follow all safety protocols—such as double-checking locks and ensuring fences are secure—to give you total peace of mind while you are away. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pets are safe, happy, and receiving high-quality care.
