1. Bailey B.


“Bailey arrived promptly and was patient with my reactive dog. Bailey is able to read a dogs body language which is super helpful for my dog who needs space and to get to know someone before she gets comfortable. I look forward to working with Bailey again.”


2. Stephanie K.

“Stephanie is always great at communicating with me and keeping me updated on any changes with Bruno.”


3. Amy C.

“Amy was a top-notch pet sitter! She arrived on time for all the drop-in visits and sent lots of photos and notes, in addition to helping me keep one other non-pet task handled in the house while we were gone. Her responsiveness to messages was always lightning-fast and helped set us at ease while away from our kitties. I appreciate how Amy made time to come over and see how the kitties were fed and where the litter boxes and supplies were before we left town. We will definitely reach out to her again when it’s time for our next trip!”


4. Davis W.

“Davis did a great job taking care of my dogs while I was out of town. One of my dogs is shy and skittish at first, but she immediately took to Davis when he came over to meet them. He has a natural way with animals! I will definitely use Davis again and highly recommend him!”


5. Miranda P.

“This was my second time using Miranda and I am very comfortable with her! She takes great care of my pets and I know they are getting a good walk. Thank you!”


6. Cambree R.
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Cambree! We have 2 cats she’s watched twice and every time she is kind, timely and thorough! You can tell she genuinely loves all animals and does an amazing job! We even had a leopard gecko she was also great with! We will only use Cambree and if you’re wondering about it, definitely choose her!”


7. Anne F.

“Anne really came through for us during the ice storm. I had to be at work and still needed dog care and she didn’t let me down. Our dogs love Anne.”


8. Ann B.

“Ann took wonderful care of our cat and updated us with delightful pictures of him with every visit. We’ll definitely use her services again for future trips!”


9. Rebecca O.
About: I worked at the PetSmart Pets hotel for several years. I also worked at Camp Bow Wow. Ive taken care of lots of fur babies. I have a cat and a dog. I'm currently working part time as a receptionist. I work Monday-Thursday from 12PM-5PM. It leaves me with plenty of time to house sit and spend time caring for animals. I am respectful of other peoples spaces. I am loving towards all animals. When I am pet sitting I give the animals lots of attention. When i am house sitting I make sure to leave the space tidy. I am able to watch dogs overnight in my home. Again I have a dog who loves to play with other dogs. I kennel him when I leave the house for short periods of time. There are two dog parks in my area. We usually go on walks and hit up the dog park. I would bring your dog along with permission. I have open availability for pet sitting. I can pet sit at your house or mine. I am available for walks and drop ins too. My pets have breakfast in the morning and dinner in the evening. We go on a walk in the morning and then when I get off of work. We go to the dog park a lot. I make sure to keep the dogs on leashes whenever we leave the residence. <3


10. Kaylyn B.

“I highly recommend Kaylyn as a sitter. My two cats seemed to enjoy each of the visits with treats, playtime, and plenty of head scratches. Kaylyn was great about following the instructions I left and communicating with me throughout the booking. I really appreciate Kaylyn’s flexibility and attentiveness to my cat’s behaviors.”


11. Julie M.


“We love Julie, she is wonderful. I love the pictures and videos she sends and I love how relaxed my bunnies are when I come home. She is amazing! Book Julie, your fur babies will thank you!”


12. Elizabeth L.

“Excellent first meeting with Elizabeth! She was very patient with Zelda and easy to communicate with. Zelda’s definitely looking forward to walking with Elizabeth soon!”


13. Kellece B.

“Both of our large dogs did well with Kellece's care, and we enjoyed the prompt check ins and photos. Thanks so much!”


14. Melissa G.
About: Recently moved back to Memphis and thrilled to start pet sitting again! I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, lizards, and more! I have cats of my own and my dog, Nyx, gave us 13 amazing years to love on her. I have volunteered for the last 14 years at rescue shelters and I believe in treating all animals with the upmost respect, patience, and kindness. I can bottle feed babies, walk dogs, run dogs, or just sit quietly with the shy ones. I am recently retired from full time work and can be flexible with times and needs caring for your pet. Once a day or a few times a day. I will come to you! Walking, feeding, petting, brushing, playing....I can do it all with love, care, and kindness. Special feeding routines are completely fine, too!


15. Arika F.
“Arika is an incredible dog sitter who genuinely cares about the well-being of animals. She has cared for my dog many times, and always makes him feel loved and safe while I am away. She’s prompt, communicative, and goes above and beyond to provide exceptional care—whether it’s sending updates or taking extra steps to accommodate special requests. Arika is simply a kind and trustworthy person, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for anyone seeking reliable, loving care for their pet(s)!”


16. Mery Ann L.

“Happy to be your first drop in - Gaia was well taken care of during my time away. Thank you for your professionalism and communication. I am very satisfied.”


17. Magnolia G.

“Magnolia was exactly what I was looking for in a pet sitter! I knew right when I met her that my senior kitty was in good hands while I was gone for the weekend. I’ve never used a pet service before and I was nervous, naturally. With a sitter like Magnolia there was no reason to be worried! Smeagol was well taken care of and I will not hesitate to book with Magnolia again. Highly recommend!!!!”


18. Adina D.
“Adina is a wonderful pet-sitter. I’ve used her several times now when I’ve been out of town to take care of my two cats Twyla and Meowra. I can clearly tell that they both love her and enjoy her company when I’m away. She’s very diligent about feeding and litter box cleaning. Adina goes the extra mile to tidy up after them, especially when they get a little rebellious when I’m away. I appreciate her fantastic work and expert care. Highly recommend!”


19. Micah C.

“Micah is BY FAR the best car sitter I’ve ever had! My very shy cats loved her day one, which has literally never happened. She was very communicative and kind and I’ll absolutely be using her in the future if possible! Would 11/10 recommend”


20. Brittney T.
About: Hello, I have always had a compassion for animals. Taking care of animals is something that not only makes me happy but makes the dogs happy too. I am a First Grade Teacher here in Memphis so I am available anytime after 4 p.m. during the week and anytime on the weekends after 4 p.m. Friday. I have taken care of animals for approximately eleven years. I have a ten year-old Shih Tzu that is like a kid. My favorite thing to do is get outside and take him for a walk. If you're needing someone to take your dog out or love on them please contact me. I would be glad to help you . Nothing breaks my heart more than seeing a neglected animal.
