1. Kacy W.


“Kacy was wonderful! Definitely will be booking again when the need arises. She sent us video and pics while we were away which was so nice. She also stripped the bed and put out trash which was great too. Thanks Kacy 😄”


2. Michael K.

“Michael did a good job overnight sitting with our two large dogs for a weekend at our home. Very nice and was patient with our anxious boy. Will be booking again!”


3. Heather H.

“Heather was a life-saver for us!! All good dog sitters can take dogs on walks, play with them and care for them, but not everyone goes above and beyond when something goes wrong. Heather is the kind of person you want taking care of your dogs when things go haywire. One of our dogs got sick the last day we were gone and Heather didn’t hesitate to immediately assess the situation, make sure our dog was ok and contact me to walk through next steps. We were 300 miles away and worried, but heather was cool, calm and collected. She even cleaned up a messy situation when she absolutely did not have to. Would absolutely ask her to watch our pups again. She is fantastic!!”


4. Hailey H.

“Hailey took great care of our dogs (and house) while we were away for a long weekend. Communication was excellent, with pics and updates to keep us from worrying, and we came home to happy pups. She was also super understanding when we got sick shortly before our trip and had to flex our schedule a bit. Definitely recommend!”

17. Orchideh H.

About: I know if we could we would bring our little loves EVERYWHERE, unfortunately that not always an option. I want to give you peace of mind while not breaking the bank. I have loved all kinds of animals from slimy to furry since I can remember. I would bring strays home all the time and they would eventually become my own. I care for friends, family, and neighbors pets when ever I can and I hope I can care for yours too! I work full time and have pets of my own. I live 7 minutes from work so I see them at lunch and we play together. I take them with me where ever I can. I have a big yard and a local dog park down the street. I have two lovely dogs that can keep yours company. I can come visit and love on them how ever you need. I can take them to vet appointments or have play dates.


18. Taylor & Clayton C.

“Taylor is absolutely incredible! She housesat for us and took amazing care of our dog, Rosie. She went above and beyond with everything, from taking the time to do a meet and greet to leaving our house completely spotless after her stay! Taylor is also very mindful, she took the time to understand all of Rosie's routines, needs and quirks and made us feel so comfortable and confident leaving our girl with her for the long weekend. She was very responsive, checked in each day and sent us some really great photos and videos of Rosie enjoying their time together! We cannot say enough good things about Taylor, highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!”


19. Katie B.
About: I’ve had my fair share with dogs of all ages, from taking care of my senior dog to dog sitting puppies, i have a love for all ages and treat them like my own! I am a college student at UTK, but the good thing about that is I am only gone for a few hours a day with large breaks in between. It’s easy to do work from home leaving me a lot of free time daily I have a love for furry friends; I’ve wanted a dog but being in college i’ve felt like it would be unfair to the dog, so taking care of others for short periods brought me great interest, baths and brushes are something that i like to do, walking daily brings exercise and just giving love all around!


20. Chelcie B.

“Super pleased with how well Chelcie took care of my 14-year old dog. My dog requires different meds at different times of the day. Chelcie kept track of everything with no worries. She provided daily reports to me on how well all was going - much appreciated. Sweet. Thoughtful. And very Trustworthy. I'll be using Chelcie again for sure!”
