1. Cami K.
“This was our first time having our dog stay with someone else and it couldn’t have been any better. My dog can be pretty shy, but she took to Cami right away. Cami sent updates and pictures, so that also helped us feel better. I plan on using Cami again in the future!”
2. Marissa G.
“Marissa was very friendly and easy to work with. She sent a picture of Luke every day and gave me an update on him as well. Would definitely use Marissa again in the future.”
3. Danielle M.
“Danielle (and her family) was everything we needed to leave our pup for our first extended time away. We had such peace of mind during our trip knowing our girl was in great care. Danielle made sure all of our dog's (and our) needs were met. She communicated wonderfully with us all along the way and we really appreciated seeing pictures of our happy girl. We are so grateful to have found Danielle!”

“Heather was great! She took our pups pretty last minute and even let us come over first to see her place. She was very responsive and our pups seemed to have a good time. We definitely recommend Heather and will be using her again!”
6. Ana F.
“my dog was happy and healthy after I picked him up. Ana was very communicative throughout the boarding period and sent me daily pictures which I used to wait for. My dog seemed to get a lot of outdoor times, walks, and playtimes with other dogs. I also opted for the bathing service. He came back looking fresh and his coat was very well taken care of. definitely recommend her!”
7. Christopher & Christina W.
“Super flexible, easy going, and tentative to my dog. Can not state enough how much I appreciated the ease of mind knowing my fur baby was in good hands!”
8. Roy F.
“Roy went above and beyond for our anxious and sometimes temperamental rescue dog Ginny. Ginny is a beagle mix with a history of separation anxiety, dog and people reactivity, and it’s been difficult to find a good dog sitting fit. Even though Roy had some serious life circumstances, he still agreed to watch Ginny since we had booked so far in advance. Ginny and Roy became buddies while my partner and i got to live it up for a week at Bonnaroo, without a care in the world. Roy was truly and amazing sitter and person - so glad we met and so appreciative for what he did for our girl. Thanks again Roy! ?”
9. Jodi B.
“Can’t say enough good things about Jodi! She took the best care of little Nemo while I was out of town. She shared an update each day and Nemo got so much love, walks and playtime. Nemo had such a great time and it was so nice being able to leave town and know he was getting so well taken care of :) Highly recommend!”
10. Josh Y.
“Josh and his family goes above and beyond, I could not of asked for a better place for my dog to stay while I was away. An amazing yard to play, and an even more amazing group of people who truly do care about your pet. If you are looking for peace of mind while you’re on vacation and want your fur baby’s to have fun too. This must be the place!”

About: I can only accept 4 dogs at a time. I will be available anytime even at last minute. I have a bernedoodle who is my spoiled child. I am very reliable, and quick to respond to any request. Please bring your doggies food, water dish, leash and favorite toy. I grew up in the midwest and consider myself a friendly and down to earth person. I moved to Shelbyville two years ago. I hope that you will consider me on watching over your dog(s). I'm currently have full time availability. Please don't hesitate as I usually can accommodate most requests. Thank you for the consideration of watching your dog. I am saving up to build a fence around my house. However will have to put a lease on your dog. While they are outside.
12. Chelsea S.
“Chelsea has been a family friend of ours for a few years now. She has always been great with all of our animals. I recently went out of town for a few weeks and left her in charge of everything. She took amazing care of them while I was gone including sending updates along the way. Chelsea has helped me with their up keep from baths to nails I honestly think they love her more than me haha! She’s definitely the person I can call and get advice from cause due to her knowledge I was able to find out my old pal had allergies.”
13. Christina R.
“I had a bit of a last second same day emergency with my pet sitting plans, and Christina agreed to watch my pup same day! It's always a bit nerve wracking leaving your pup in a new place for a weekend but Christina eased those worries immediately. Very good communication, sends lots of updates and My pup Maddux had the time of her life. I will definitely use Christina everytime I go out of town from now on and happy to have found Maddux's new sitter. Very easy drop off and pick up. Thanks Christina.”
14. Alexis P.
About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals in my life and have had many pets. I love cats and dogs and really appreciate the happiness and friendship they bring to a home. I work from home so I have plenty of opportunities to take pups potty and play with them. I have German shepherd who is great with other dogs and will love the company of a friend to play with. I have a fenced back porch and a large unfenced yard. I would keep your baby on a leash when going potty and make sure they get some good playtime in. They’ll have a friend in my baby girl Eris, a two year old German shepherd. She is spade and loves to play!
15. Toni S.
About: I have been watching dogs since about 06-08. My first job was a 3 month stay at one family's house. I love to watch dogs and get to know different personalities. I have had dogs in my house since I was 12 and haven't been without one since. I like to take the dogs to a dog park when the weather is nice if the owners are okay with that. I am available to stay as long as necessary. I am pretty open with where I can stay, within 20 miles of Murfreesboro. I have stayed with my clients' pets for years now, and I have built a rapport with them and their fur babies. I watch cats and dogs regularly. I help with multiple transport volunteer groups, as well, and that is so much fun. I have references available upon request. I work for 10-hour shifts, Friday-Monday, 2p-12a. My office is in Murfreesboro. If you live close enough, I try to go to the house during a short break, but there is no guarantee of that. If I am boarding, I generally leave the house around 1p and get back around 1a. I use leashes as necessary. I am open to staying in the owner's home or boarding at my house. I have a fenced-in yard. Due to my fence only being about 4 feet, I do not feel comfortable boarding larger dogs. If that is what the owner has, I am okay with being at their house because the dog is used to that environment. I have a dog of my own that I have with me, whether sitting at your house or boarding. She is a mini dachshund and gets along with others well. Cats are more interested in her than she is of them.
16. Mahalia R.
“Mahalia watched my pup for a few hours on a family vacation. She was very flexible and easy to get ahold of. She did a great job of caring for our dog by playing with her and giving her lots of pets/love!”
17. Catina C.
“Catina is loved by animals as much as she loves them. She treats her dogs and cats the same as she does her grandbabies, with love. She is attentive and caring and would trust her completely.”
18. Abby M.
“Abby went above and beyond watching our yellow lab over the Christmas holiday for us. She sent plenty of updates on how he was doing and even bought him a few toys for Christmas! Her services are very reasonably priced, even her holiday rate. We will definitely use Abby as long as she is offering her services and would recommend her 100%.”
19. Nickie P.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, horses, you name it. Animals are underrated as members of the family in my opinion and I just want to make sure any animal in my care is treated like family. I take care of my animals (two dogs and a kitty cat) daily and they have a pretty set routine, I would be working my schedule around their routine and working on my days off. I’m happy to drop in and check on your babies and give them love and attention on long work days. I know how stressful it is to be at work knowing your baby is alone at home and I’m happy to help!
20. Matthew G.
“My black lab had seizure and I am very picky about who watches my dog because he needs a special medicine if he is having a seizure to help stop them. Mathew has watched my boy and has been very good and attentive when he has had a seizure. My dog is my baby and I would not just leave him with anyone. I trust Mathew with boy any day.”
