Cat Sitting in Friendship

About: I can’t remember a time when pets were not a part of my family! Although I am new to Rover, I have much experience in taking care of my own pets, as well as taking care of family members pets. I am all too familiar with how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies with a stranger, but I can assure you that your pets will be loved and provided for while under my care!💓 I am a stay at home wife-student, graduating in May. I am home all day most days, and only leave for a few hours at a time. I have a fenced in dog yard, connected to a heated and air conditioned dog house. Depending on your preference, animals are welcome to stay in my house or in their own personal “puppy room”! I have 3 dogs of my own that love having friends to play with, but can be separated if your pet does not enjoy company!

“Krista was awesome! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting on the farm where I grew up with pets and livestock. I have experience with all kinds of animals, from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s feeding, playing, walking, or just spending time with them, you can count on me to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. Pet care is my full-time job, so it’s at the center of my daily routine. Each day, I focus on providing personalized care for each pet, whether it's feeding, walking, or simply spending quality time with them. I’m flexible and adjust my schedule to meet the needs of every pet, ensuring they get the attention and exercise they require. Being fully dedicated to pet care allows me to give your pets the time and love they deserve, every single day. I care for pets in their own homes, so they stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I handle everything from feeding and walking to playing and giving medication, following any instructions the pet owner provides. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible while ensuring they’re happy and well cared for. I treat each home with respect and make sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 18 years. I love to meet and take care of your babies and I treat them like my own. I enjoy taking them on walks, making custom meals for them and bathing them. I’m a homemaker, so I am home everyday. And I can be very attentive to your baby(ies)! We are normally outside each day for 3-4 hours or as needed! I have a sweet friendly 8 year old lab, Lilly, and a 3 year old German Shepherd, Sammi who enjoy company!! We do currently live right by a dog park and if needed we can crate. But they will not be locked up all day. I respect all wishes for feeding habits, exercise routines and potty breaks!

“This was my first time having Lauren as a sitter for my two fur babies. She was great. She was communicative and sent photos each day. When I arrived home the babies were happy and my house was in order. I hope we can have Lauren in to sit again soon.”

Jackie W.

“Sheryl was phenomenal with our cat. Consistently updated with photos and messages on how he was doing. This was our first time using a sitter that wasn’t family and we could not have been happier and more secure with our decision.”

Elaine T.

“Great communication through the whole process. Loved the pictures we got. Very responsive if we had questions. No qualms about using Rachel again. Everything looked great when we got back. Highly recommend.”

About: I have takin care of animals since i was 5 from friends to family to strangers i love animals and they usually love my personality. I take care of a service dog full time and i almost always have an open schedule.Help me by letting me help you. Thank you. I walk dogs from pitts to yorkie mixes. From walking and playing to talking and bathing. I have cleaned up after them and loved them for who they are.

About: I will tell you a bit about me and I need to know about your dog as well. Before contacting me about caring for your dog, make sure their profile(s) is completed here on Rover. Upload a picture and submit as much info as you can provide. It helps me determine if your dog is a good fit for what I can provide. About me: Raised in the country surrounded by both family pets and farm animals, caring for critters is second nature to me. I am a doting grandma who lives too far away from my kids to see my grandchildren so I channel that attention toward my Australian Shepherd, Gumbo, and my new puppy, Boo, the Yorki-Poo. After I lost my husband and best friend I found the best way to cope is to help others and keep busy. If I can help you out with your dog or cat while you're away, let me know. I can use the extra income but also I need to feel useful. I keep my fee low. Tips are appreciated. I board at my home in the country near Dukedom, TN. Think of boarding here as bringing your dog to Grandma's house. There will be some spoiling and if pet parents permit, homemade dog cookies! Currently I am home all the time. Your dog will be with me and my dog while here. Gumbo (30 pound neutered male) likes to play fetch or frisbee and we do this daily. I feed my dog early morning (6-7) and early evening (6-7). I give a lot of outside time when weather allows. I give my dog a lot of attention and your dog(s) will get the same. We are a pack and your dog will be part of that pack when he/she stays with us. I live on 6 acres near Dukedom, TN. My large backyard has a chain link fence. If your dog likes to play ball or frisbee this is a great yard to do it in. In addition to the backyard, I have a large field that I keep a path mowed around just for walks but to go there your dog(s) must have excellent recall or be leashed trained very well. I don't want to be pulled around or have to struggle to hold them. Dogs really like going to the field. "No" is the word I use to stop misbehavior. If there is a different word you use, let me know. It is good to know what words/phrases your dog recognizes. It'd be great if you write those down and give it to me. I have carpet throughout my living quarters so PLEASE only housebroken dogs. I give numerous long outdoor time between 5 AM to 9 PM. Potty breaks are every couple of hours. Your pet must be vaccinated! Bordatella vacs are recommended every six-to-twelve months. if your dog frequents places with other dogs, get 6 month vaccine. My dogs are vaccinated. In the warmer months, it is very important that dogs have a flea and tick preventative or have some defense against these nasty bugs because both are out here. I keep grass mowed but they still get on the dogs so make sure they have a preventative. My dogs wear clothing treated with Sawyer flea/tick spray and I have had great success with that method along with a monthly prescribed medicine. Bring your pet's food/bowls/treats along with feeding instructions. Filling out pet profile in depth on Rover helps tremendously! It has an area for vet info and anything I would need to know about your dog can be on their profile! Gumbo has dog toys that he shares but if your dog has a fave, bring it. If your dog must sleep in a bed or crate, bring it. Sometimes a sweater or anything with your scent on it comforts a dog that misses his/her owner. You're welcome to bring that. If he/she has a brush that you want me to use, bring it. I can brush dogs but have no proper facility to bathe. In the summer, I have a small dog pool to cool off in and plenty of shade in the backyard. NO cell service out here so I do not carry my phone with me. I check my messages several times thru the day but I'm not like most that have their phone on them. It does me no good. Many rural people pay for cell service despite not getting it at their homes. I have a landline that works providing my internet service works. If there is anything else you need to know, do not hesitate to ask. I have my profile set to only take in three dogs at a time. I have two so I think five is enough. I am very attentive so rest assured I am keeping a good eye on them.

“Savannah was awesome. We have 3 cats, one still a baby. The baby got on the counter and shredded paper towels while we were gone, Savannah cleaned it up! She didn't have to do that, but she went above and beyond the call of duty. If you are looking for a cat sitter, SHE IS THE ONE TO CALL! Thanks for being awesome Savannah!!!!❤️”

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog, Manny, since I got him when I was 9. I also worked at a doggy day care/boarding/spa place for about 2 years and I loved everything about it! I’ve loved animals since I was a kid and it’s my passion. I just moved back to Dyersburg, my hometown, from a year in Washington state so I don’t have a 9-5 job currently, I just really want to do something with dogs so here I am! I’ll be available pretty much any time. I’ve been trained to take care of dogs before because at the doggy day care it was just me in charge of a room of like 50+ dogs and that can get crazy. I’ve learned the tells a dog gives about how they are feeling, how to break up fights and how to prevent them.

“I just love how easy it is to contact Dana for any questions that I may have or to check up on Max. But what i really appreciate is the patience for keeping him until I can find a home. Thank you so much. I will recommend you to any and everybody.”

About: I spent last summer working at a kennel with over 60 hunting dogs. We prepared dogs for AKC/UKC hunt tests and field trials in competitions across the nation. I work with Doordash part-time which means my schedule is extremely flexible. The busy times for doordash are during lunch and dinner, but I'm able to schedule deliveries around pet care. All pets are different and require a unique approach and handling. There is no one-size-fits-all method even amongst a single breed. It won't take long for me to understand your pet and develop a routine around their needs.

About: I have raised 3 of my dogs from the puppy stage. I will always make sure yours is taken care of just like I do my own. I’m available mainly on the weekends. I could be available for more would need to ask me in advance so I can check my schedule. I will make sure to follow your instructions on how to care for your pet and what your pet is used to for a routine.

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs and I have been working at a dog groomer for a year now pets are family. I don’t mind puppies either I have two dogs of my own and they are amazing. I love them so much and will love your dog or cat as if they are mine I will have to come to your house as my dogs might not get along with your dogs and it’s for the safety of the dogs.
