Dog Sitting in Franklin

About: I'm a stay at home wife, so I have plenty of time throughout the day to check on your four legged friend. I love all pets, and have never met one I didn't like. I've been taking care of pets my whole life. I had a business as a pre-teen, and I always get asked by my friends and family to watch their pets. I'm a stay at home wife. I had a car accident 2 years ago, and I broke my back. I did a good amount of physical therapy, and my healing has gone well, but I didn't want to return to my job in a bakery. My husband decided to support us, which leaves me free to pursue passions, like pet care and amusemant. I treat my pets like people. I talk to them and listen to them. I work very hard to earn their trust. Cats, I get low to their level and let them look in my eyes, scent my hands. Dogs, I allow to smell me and greet me.

About: I have had pets my entire life. Dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits…I love animals of all kinds. My mom became paralyzed and I walked and took care of her 2 senior dogs for about 8 years until they passed. I gave them oral medication, cooked their food, walked and groomed them. Then she adopted a puppy and I took care of him as well as trained him. I currently have 2 french bulldogs of my own. One is a hyper little puppy and the other is a calmer 5 year old. I love caring for pets whether they are my own or someone else’s. I currently work part time in home care until 2pm 4 days a week. I am available most afternoons. My schedule changes if a client is in the hospital and does not need care those days which gives me the flexibility to pick up more last minute walks or check ins. I have children so I cannot work all weekend but i can be flexible and am open to them. I am open to walking your dogs in your neighborhood or wherever you prefer. I am also open to check ins and feeding dogs or cats. I will do my best to keep your routine with them if that is what you prefer. I would like to know a little bit about them beforehand and any preferences or habits they have.

“My dog instantly took to Abby as soon we they met! Abby was timely, responsive, and kind. I came home to a very happy dog after Abby’s drop in visits. Thank you!”

About: I love all pets from dogs to reptiles. I have grown up around cats, dogs, tortoises, bunnies, and horses to name a few. I have been watching cats for our family friends since I was 11 and have had my own cat since I was two. I have experience with dogs from newborn puppies to seniors. I have volunteered in an animal shelter and helped foster kittens. I love all animals and would be honored to watch your pet! I am currently working full time but remotely. I can do after 4:30 on most weekdays and am flexible on the weekends, in particular, the afternoons/evenings. I have experience pet sitting and honor the trust you are putting in me to not only watch your animal, but be in your space. I have also been a babysitter for years and understand the respect for a clients space.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid! I have always loved dogs and their sweet, and playful personalities. I would love to take your dog on a walk, and be their friend! I am pretty free throughout the week, I love staying active, and going on walks outside. My schedule this summer is super flexible to take your dog on a walk! I live right next to a dog park, and walking trails! I am happy to drive to any dog park or walking trail as well!

“Brianna is so wonderful! We’ve booked her multiple times to check in on our cat while away. She is super dependable and communicative. She sends updates and pictures on a daily basis which we love! We will absolutely book her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”

About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, they are my everything! I used to do dog walking when I was younger and am excited to start again! I am working part time right now but am a full time dog AND cat mom so I always have to make sure their needs are first! I helped train my dogs when they were younger so they are very good and listen well. I know they trust me and I trust them.

“Dana was great! Easy to talk to and very helpful with our cat. She administered medication to him, which is not an easy task. Very professional and reliable.”

“Our two kitties have the best time with Kate! She is always on board with anything we request when it comes to caring for our girls and is very communicative. Highly recommend her!”

“This was our first time hiring Jill and she did an awesome job coming to our home to check in on our three pups. We only needed afternoon visits and she did a great job spending time with them outside and making sure their water bowl was full. She left our house locked up and alarm set with no problems. Because Jill was so reliable and professional we hired her for the remaining 2 weeks that we needed the extra help. I not only recommend her but will hire her in the future!”

“Thienne arrived on time and had nothing but kindness for our girl Izzy! We would totally call her again ;)”

Christine S.

“I can't recommend Teaghan enough! I am a first time Rover user and I was super anxious about it. I had another sitter booked originally but they were flaky so I had to find someone else last minute and Teaghan was sooo easy to work with and accommodating. I am so happy I found her and would definitely use her again in the future :)”

“Gwen is reliable, on time, and followed every instruction perfectly. Gidget was happy, calm, and well taken care of. She’s responsible, kind, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

Kaiden J.

“Haylie was communicative and went above and beyond during the drop in visits.”

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life! I have had numerous jobs caring for and staying in homes to care for pets while families are away. I am currently available for quick visits or even longer stays! My schedule is very flexible at the moment, so I am happy to be of help where/when needed! I have two English Cream Golden Retrievers at home on an electric fence. Happy to discuss your home requirements when it comes to your pup!

“Needed someone to play ball with my dogs while I was out of town and my wife was home recovering from surgery. Peggy was accommodating and reliable. She helped tire out the pups so my wife could continue to heal. Would definitely use again!”

About: Hi! I live with my boyfriend and we love watching dogs! I already have one dog and treat her like a princess. She gets along great with other dogs and it's nice to have that time with another pup. We do have a cat! Dogs naturally listen to me well and I've been watching and taking care of dogs for over 14 years. I moved to the Lakes Region recently from Seattle this Spring. I'd love to take the dogs out to the park, hiking, running, or just to the dog park. I live in an apartment and we take frequent outdoor breaks. Someone is always home for the dogs. I work out of the home two days per week but my boyfriend is available those days :-). Otherwise we are on walks and getting outside rain or shine! I can easily crate your dog if needed. We take frequent outdoor breaks and I never mind going outside. We have several parks nearby as well as being right off the Wow Trail.

“Kelsey is awesome! She took amazing care of our two shy kitties while we were away. Highly recommend Kelsey for anyone looking for a wonderful person to keep an eye on your fur babies when you are away.”
