“Robin did a great job communicating with me and sending me photos. It's such a comfort to be able to have someone stay in my house so Anya can stay in her own home not be anxious. The house was left in great shape with no mess anywhere. Would definitely have Robin stay with Anya again.”


“We recently entrusted our puppy, Louis, to the care of Jill for four nights. Jill's communication skills were excellent throughout her stay. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages detailing Louis's activities and well-being. We recommend Jill for anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals make her a standout choice. Thanks to Jill, we were able to enjoy our time away knowing that Louis was in great hands. Thank you, Jill, for your exceptional care of Louis. We look forward to booking with you again in the future!”


About: Hello. My name is Marcus from Music City. Been around dogs my whole life. I have had small dogs and big dogs. Love them all the same. I’m not working at the moment. So dogs would be a priority for me. I can do this daily. I can do early in the mornings. 11-3 sometimes I have errands or doctors appointments. But it’s not everyday. Can do it in the evenings too. On weekends I’m available mornings, lunch and dinner. I treat pets like they are part of my own family. Make sure they are walked and played with. Make sure they burn some energy. By running and exercising. I make sure they don’t eat anything. Old food or dead animals.Make sure they are cleaned if they get dirty.
“Shannon was awesome! Sent lots of pictures and updates of our pup! We came back to the house exactly as we left it and a very happy pup! Will definitely be rebooking in the future! Thank you!!!!”

“Simply wonderful. Courtney took great care of our Great Dane, Marty— even took care of things we forgot to tell her! She stayed at our house and it was such a comfort knowing she was there with our big guy. Would recommend Courtney to anyone needing her pet sitting services. Exceptional!”

“Katie did a great job with caring for my 2 male cats for a week. One of my cats had been recently diagnosed with a medical issue. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Katie was staying at my house & frequently checking up on him.”


“She’s a pro!! Stayed at our house with our 10 month old Yorkie who started with diarrhea the day before we were suppose to leave for Disney!! ? Not many would have been willing to watch a sick little guy. Carol is very self sufficient, didn’t need all of my instructions and she made everything super easy for us. I also loved that she did a meet and greet before we left. Oh and a bonus...she brought in all of our packages and mail while we were gone. We had never had anyone stay in our house before. Our pup and our house were very well cared for! Will definitely use her again!”

About: There has never been a time in my life where I lived pet free. Dogs (all sizes and breeds), cats, horses, ferrets, and large birds. Sometimes all at the same time. Training is a must for these types of situations. I am available to help as needed. We have recently rearranged our lifestyle to spend more time at home for both, our human and pet family. This includes your pet as they are now part of our family. Large fenced in back yard and 7 acres to walk together. Offering indoor play area, kennel free stay, raised dog beds, chairs and doggie couches.
“You'll hardly find someone with more background knowledge and expertise when it comes to your pets. Doris is top-notch caretaker with a lot of experience. Grendel, Nora, and Roger were in good hands, and I would definitely request Doris' services again in the future. Thank you Doris.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds since I was 11. I have worked with senior dogs, puppies, and all the ages in between. I have 3 dogs of my own, as well as a gecko and fish. I have also worked with ducks/birds. I have worked with cats as well and love all of them!! I will be going into my freshman year of college at Lipscomb University, so I will have a lot of free time to see any and all animals! I always follow every rule provided about your animal. I know the importance of routine, comfort, and stability. I will ensure each pet gets the adequate exercise, food, and love desired by the owner.
“Elizabeth was WONDERFUL. Elizabeth is kind & sweet and I know she gave loving care to Billy. Elizabeth sent us pictures everyday with updates as to how the day went. Which was always a good day with Billy. Elizabeth is responsible caring not only for our dog Billy but also our home. Highly recommend Elizabeth, oh, our house was cleaner when we came home than when we left.”

About: I've had a familiarity with animals since a child. I enjoy speaking( even though they dont speak back) and giving attention to pets to build a loving, trusting, bond I Am not very busy in general so am able to take care of companions at almost any time of the day or night as needed. I do not offer services pertaining to bringing the pet to my home, however, on our first meet, I will learn and cater to the best interest you have for your pet's care in your absence
About: I’ve worked with all breeds of dogs since I was young, between pet sitting, working for a groomer, kennel assistants and working for multiple vet hospitals throughout the years. I can administer medications as needed. I have a wide array of knowledge and skills such as emergency medicine, and working with neurological patients. I currently work full time at an emergency vet hospital. I take care of cats and dogs of all sizes and breeds daily, and have been a veterinary technician for 15 years. I also have two pets of my own that are very spoiled. My pets are my babies, and I treat clients and friends pets just the same. Whatever their routine is, would be followed very closely and be kept a close eye on.
“Anita was AMAZING!!! Not only did she take excellent care of our stubborn furry baby, she kept watch over our home and we returned to a clean and happy house!! Peace of mind is what you’ll get by hiring her. We cannot recommend her enough. ???”

“Laurie went above and beyond in caring for my babies. They can be a handful (I have 3 cats and a dog), but she rose to the challenge and made sure they felt cared for and loved every single day for my extended house sitting request. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!”

“Meghan was amazing! Our dog loved her and she made sure he is comfortable and happy while we were gone. She sent us multiple updates with pictures of our sweet little pup. She followed all his feeding and walking routines to the t and communication was stellar. We couldn’t be happier. Our Shurik definitely found a new friend.”

Doris watched my dog for a week while we were out of the country. My dog got hurt the day before leaving and Doris kept Remington on her medicine schedule and limited activity to help her heal. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly made Remington feel safe. We received regular updates and photos which gave us peace of mind and let us enjoy our time away knowing she was in great hands. We highly recommend Doris and will definitely be using her again in the future!
