“My dog, Peaches, loved her stay here for day care. She had lots of attention, treats, and play time with other animals. That being said mariadelcarmen always asked for permission prior to feeding her anything. She sent lots of check in photos I greatly appreciated!!”

“This was our first time working with Cassy. She was very responsive and responsible with our dog. She had a good environment with other dogs. She was an excellent communicator and sent us lots of videos and pictures. Farley and her kids got along great. It was adorable to see pictures of them enjoying each other. We would definitely work with her again.”


About: I worked as a Veterinary Technician and then Veterinary Front Desk Manager for 25 years at the same practice. In 2025 I had to step away for personal medical issues. I have a wide range of knowledge regarding the care and well-being of our beloved pets, in every stage of life. Making sure your fur baby is happy, healthy, and safe is my top priority. Taking care of pets in has been my life for many, many years. My mom is retired and lives with me, she is always available for as many snuggles as your baby requires. Me staying at your house is usually the best option for helping keep your fur babies happy and their routine as close to normal as possible. It lowers the amount of stress on them while their family is away. If boarding at my house, I do have pets of my own but can keep them separate if need be. I have a fenced yard and doggie door but I don't allow access to it for small dogs. I will take them outside myself or if they use wee wee pads, that is also fine.
“Again another perfect stay. My girl runs right in the house and grabs a toy. I know she I always loved and well taken care of. I am so grateful for this family. Thanks guys!”

“Zach was super easy to communicate with and was a great sitter while we explored the area. We will definitely use him again if we come back to town. Thanks again, Zach!”

“Excellent dog sitter! Tracey watched Dexter while my family and I went to Gatlinburg for the day. She accommodated our schedule and was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Dexter was very cozy and enjoyed his stay!”

“Tracy was great! With a pretty last minute request, she took great care of my older dog, provided pictures during the day, and was super responsive in communication. I'd recommend Tracy to anyone and will definitely use her again if we're in the area.”

“Megan was amazing with Benji! She really cared and Benji warmed up to her right away. While we were gone, she kept us updated with check-ins and photos. It was clear that Benji had a great time. He was happy, relaxed, and was well cared for by Megan and her family. She is reliable, kind, and genuinely great with dogs. I’d definitely recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pup!”

“Sarah was so friendly and took great care of my pup. We went hiking in the Smokey Mountain National Park, that doesn’t allow dogs on trails, during the most crowded time of the year, and we needed someone to watch my dog the entire morning, afternoon and evening so we could do a long hike and drive through the heavy traffic. Sarah was so flexible with pick up and drop off times, which made it possible for us to have a great day hiking without worry. She sent us updates, always communicated immediately and was a joy to talk to. She also has a lovely place that is very pet friendly. My dog was treated like family and had a great time. I highly recommend her. It was worth driving to her home instead of using a kennel or someplace closer for peace of mind and knowing that my dog was well taken care of and treated like family!”

“Kiki watched our pup, Sam, while we went to Dollywood for a few hours. She sent us the cutest pictures of him playing with her pups. She also met us in town which was very convenient for us. Sam slept for a solid two hours after visiting her and her pups - he had so much fun! Whenever we come back through we will definitely contact her again!”
About: I'm a veterinarian out due to an injury. Missing the interactions with fur babies! I'm slowly getting back to work but until I'm full time again is line to help people out by caring for their beloved pets! I will treat them as my own and communicate with the owners as often as they want! No animal is off limits! They will be in great hands. I have 3 cats and 1 dog myself. Other than working with animals as a veterinarian, my own pets are a full time job. They bring me such joy and entertainment. Even as an adult, if I pass someone with a pet I will always stop to ask to pet it. I'm extremely detail oriented. I'm always observing behavior and their regular routine. If something seems off I will address it and communicate it immediately. My love for animals is my life's work.
“Caitlin and her family took excellent care of our girl. We were nervous to leave her with someone we didn’t know for the first time, but Caitlin sent plenty of updates throughout the day and even took Dixie out hiking. We will definitely be booking again!”

“Emily was able to help us out a few times when we moved to town and we didn’t want to leave our pup alone in a new house. She took him on several walks and even to the dog park, both which Farley loves to do. We really appreciate her taking him into her home and taking such good care of him.”

“Callie had a great day at Wendy’s. She was awesome about sending updates throughout the day. We knew Callie was in good hands. She got lots of walks and belly rubs. We would definitely book with Wendy again. Thank you, Wendy, for giving us peace of mind and for giving our dog such a happy, loving place to spend the day.”

“Jenny is the absolute best person to watch your dogs. She’s so caring and genuinely love animals. My Milo loves her so much. I couldn’t thank her enough for helping me watch Milo while I had to work. 10/10 recommended. Definitely will be using Jenny again in the future.”


“Shannon and fam were wonderful! Shannon sent several pictures during the day to show how the day progressed! I know my dogs had an awesome time. Thank you again for taking care of my doggies and treating them like part of your family!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, many different breeds. My life would not be complete without at least one dog in it! I currently have an Aussiedoodle named Macy. She is five and would love to have a playmate or two. I can only take dogs that get along well with other dogs! I have raised puppies, so I know the extra care required. I nurtured my Jack Russel for 16 years and did everything it took to get her to Rainbow Bridge in the most dignified manner. I can give meds and will do whatever your pet needs as far as special care. I work from home part time, so I have plenty of time to pay attention to your fur baby! My home has a large open family room for an indoor play area, and I have an enclosed porch and fenced in back yard. You can expect that your fur baby will be loved like my own, will get frequent potty breaks, and will get walks in the neighborhood or at the local dog park (with your permission). Your pet's safety is my top priority. I will take only one family's dogs (up to two) at a time so that there are no "top dog" issues. My Macy gets along with any dog and will be super excited to share her rather boring day with your fur baby. I will only take dogs that have ZERO issues with other dogs, as Macy must be safe as well!!
“Stephanie was very accommodating to our needs, she is very friendly and personable. Her yard is fenced in and let’s your dog have plenty of room to run around. She will take great care of your furry kids.”
