“Elyssa was fantastic. Followed my instructions perfectly, provided great updates and always made me feel that my pup was in good hands. Will look forward to booking again!”


“Veronica was amazing! She was super communicative & our pups were well taken care of. We even had an HVAC issue while we were gone, and she was gracious & helpful as we worked to get it fixed. We returned home to happy, healthy dogs and a house that was cleaner than we left it.”


“Carissa was super communicative and took good care of my two dogs at my place for a long weekend. I can safely say my dogs were happy and she handled them wonderfully.”


About: I grew up with a poodle I took care of. My Aunt would have me house sit in high school and college and I’ve done it for a few friends. I have a cat and live with another cat and dog who I care for. I work part time so I am free usually in the afternoon or right at 12 then can be there the rest of the day. We have a fenced in yard for our dog. I take her on walks. They are feed morning and night. We have a great routine with them.

“Angela is such a great sitter. She follows every direction and tip we give her for our cat to be happy. He's a bit of an anxious cat and she has managed to learn his behaviors and take such great care of him. She sends us lots of photos and videos and even did some laundry and ran our dishwasher. We couldn't rave about Angela more!”


“We had a couple dates we needed to be without the dog while visiting in Madras. I was nervous about leaving Wren out of town with someone we had not met yet. Nishell was super helpful and comunicative with me about dates and times that changed a couple times. She was very accomodating! Sweetest girl ever and Wren did really well with her even being a stranger! I hope she will be available when we come back on our next trip. She walked him fed him did everything she could think of to make him feel at home. We are so appreciative! If you live in Madras you should use her!”


“Dominique stayed in house sat for our dog a few days and went absolutely above and beyond! We felt extremely comfortable with her watching vinnie in our home, she is very kind, respectful and communicative. She gave vinnie lots of attention. Will absolutely book Dominique again!!”


“She was flexible & accommodating with my night shift and Delta’s need for constant in home care. Delta is a very high energy puppy and on activity restrictions right now from her vet, so she is quite the handful to say the least, but Abigail did the best she could to manage that surplus energy and kept me updated throughout the night. I came home to see my little tornado of a puppy healthy and happy.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds! From golden doodle puppies to Labrador seniors I’ve cared for them! I had a childhood dog that I spent ever day with for 14 years that just recently passed but my mom and I cared for her every day. She had many dietary needs and help as she became older so I’m very familiar with those challenges! I’m also familiar with the challenges with many puppies as I used to puppy sit for an old friend in college who had a sweet baby with MANY needs (as most fur babies do:)). I love to meet new sweet animals every day and can’t wait to hopefully meet yours!!! I’m a recent college graduate currently in the job-search phase, so I’m very free any day of the week for animals! Weekdays are preferred, but weekends are totally doable with enough notice! I currently cannot house animals at my home due to owning a huge German shepherd who isn’t the best with new faces sadly. But, I’m more than available to meet you at your home and care for your pets as needed any time of day!

“Alexis took amazing care of my pup while I was out of town! She and her dog gave my pup all the love and play time that he could hope for, and he was so at ease when I came home he didn't even seem to notice I'd been gone. She was very communicative and sent messages and pictures frequently, I can recommend her enough!”


“Amanda was awesome as always!! The dogs were well taken care of, I received pictures everyday, and the house was in great shape when I returned home. I will continue to rebook Amanda whenever she’s available!”


About: Hi! I’m Calea Crawley, a 19-year-old lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of pet sitting experience. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds—ducks, dogs, lizards, and more—and I currently have two dogs of my own who are part of the family. I live just outside of Nashville on a spacious farm with plenty of room to play, plus a pool for pups who love to splash! I treat every pet I care for like family, giving them the same love and attention I give my own. I offer flexible scheduling, accept same-day bookings, and I’m even happy to pick up your dog if needed. I’m also excited to share that I’m almost finished saving up for a brand-new fence, which will elevate the dog boarding experience even more. Your pup will be in safe, loving hands—and have a tail-wagging good time! As a college student studying architecture at Belmont University, my class schedule is set—so all the time I’m not in class, your pup will get my full love and attention. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily routine, and when I’m not home, there’s always someone at the house 24/7 to make sure your dog is safe, happy, and never alone. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or cuddle time, your dog will be part of a caring and attentive environment from the moment they arrive! In my home, your dog’s comfort and routine come first. I’m happy to crate them if that’s what they’re used to—or they’re more than welcome to sleep in my room for extra snuggles and security. I can follow any feeding schedule your pup needs, administer medications, and provide regular brushing or bath time if requested. Whether your dog loves playing with others or prefers solo time, I make sure every pup has the space and care they need to feel right at home. My goal is always to match your dog’s routine and personality so they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease while you’re away.

“We used Thomas for house sitting our five pets which include a senior dog with a host of health issues and an anxious, reactive bigger pup. He took great care of everyone and was very respectful of our home. His communication was fantastic and friendly with lots of pics of our happy critters. I'm always nervous leaving our pets but I would feel very comfortable and confident having him take care of our home and critters again. Definitely hope to use him in the future!”


About: I volunteer with many rescues locally and have 20+ years of experience with many types/ages of dogs! My dogs are very social and also happy to stay separate if needed! Depending on the needs I can be full time or part-time! flexible schedule currently. Please give specifics on what is needed so I can be sure our house is ready for your baby! I have a fenced yard and happy to leash walk for safety and crate and separate if the pup needs private time vs social time! whatever the owner needs!

“Within two minutes of meeting Alex we could tell she understood how important our June Bug is to us. She was very thorough and we were instantly at ease with her. Our dog loved her right away. She was terrific at communicating with us and sending photos. We will definitely use her again. Very trustworthy.”

Meg B.
“If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog like they’re royalty (and let’s be honest, they are), Meg is your girl. I’ve known Meg for over 15 years, and in that time, I’ve watched her be the kind of dog mom that makes the rest of us up our game. Not to mention she probably more photos of her pups than most people have of their kids. Meg doesn’t just love dogs — she gets them. She’s worked with rescue dogs for as long as I’ve known her, which means she’s got the patience of a saint, the instincts of a trainer, and the heart of someone who truly understands that every dog is different. She knows their quirks, their zoomies, their nervous habits, and their deep, spiritual bond with cheese. Whether your dog is a couch potato, a senior with special needs, a high-energy goofball, or needs a little extra TLC, Meg will meet them exactly where they are — usually with treats in one pocket and poop bags in the other. She’s responsible, calm in a crisis, and absolutely obsessed with animals in the best way possible. If I were a dog, I’d want to live at Meg’s house. Actually, I still kind of want to live at Meg’s house. Hire her. Your pets will thank you. Probably in licks.”

She was terrific at communicating with us and sending photos. We will definitely use her again. Very trustworthy.”

“We have used kainen to watch our cat for every vacation and he does a great job! 10/10 recommend!”
