Pet Sitting in Golden Pond

About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, from Great Danes and Mastiffs, to chihuahuas and Teacup poodles. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior with special care requirements, I know how to meet them where they are—with patience, gentleness, and respect. I’m confident handling medications, monitoring health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. And yes, I’m fluent in belly rubs, leash manners, and the art of a good treat toss. My training as a veterinary technician adds another layer of confidence and skill. I’m experienced in administering medications, monitoring subtle health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. Whether your dog needs special care or just a gentle presence while you're away, I offer both professional know-how and genuine affection. Im currently working part time from home, so I will have PLENTY of time to check in on your babies. I’m attuned to their moods, their health, and their quirks—whether it’s a sudden burst of zoomies or a subtle shift in appetite. Throughout the week, I build in time for deep-cleaning, play therapy, and medication routines when needed. I approach each task with intention and honor, recognizing how much trust goes into watching your home and pets. Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.

“Squints loved Amanda! She took great care of my girl. Absolutely pleased with Amanda and will use again.”

About: All kinds of animals have been drawn to me starting when I was a little girl. I haad a pet squirrel, raccoon, cats, dogs, rabbits, feret. I am exteremly tuned into nature and exhibit a lot of love, care, attention and compassion for animals. I currently am retired and fully commited and available to assist you with any pet care, including horses. I request as much notice as possible to ensure I will fit you in my schedule & dedicate my time to your specific needs. I would like to go to a person's home since we have 2 Golden's and a cat at my own home. I would love to take your pets for long walks, to the dog park, swimming and just cuddle with them.

“Alyssa took care of my most beloved dogs for almost 3 weeks and she did a fantastic job!! I got updates with pictures after every visit. The dogs learned to trust her and she became family to them. Thanks for taking this huge burden off my shoulders, I haven't left my dogs in someone's care for the last 12 years. I can highly recommend Alyssa , especially for people with older dogs. She was awesom. Thank you Alyssa❤️🩷🧡”

“I didn’t worry about my cats at all, I knew that they were in very capable hands. Bree was able to get them to come out of hiding and interact with them. She’s wonderful and I highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Haley was amazing with our two kitties! We had some very detailed instructions and she followed everything to a T. She provided clear constant communication while we were away and we felt our kitties were in great hands. Would definitely book again, thank you Haley!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life. I own a farm and would love to watch after your farm while you are away! I have super flexible hours, so your pet will be cared for around the clock! Your pet is my top priority and will be well taken care of! I live on a farm with plenty of room for your pets to run and play while being supervised. Your dog will never be left alone.

“She did a late night and short notice drop in for my boy who was barking and having anxiety and our friend was unreachable. She helped him even tho he was scared since he hadn’t meet her, but she took time and he went to her so well and calmed him down. Even tho I wasn’t there, I saw how sweet and patient she was with him on the camera and I just knew she was great with our boy and pets in general! She saved us a ton of stress! ❤️ definitely will ask her to help in the future and recommend to others.”

About: I have my own ESA cat and French Bulldog. I take very well care of my pets and assure you I will take the best care of yours! I love going on walks so adding an animal to that wouldn’t be so bad. I work part time and do this on the side for fun. I keep my space very clean and/or yours and feed and care for the dog or cat per the owners instructions. Every animal owner is different.

About: Hello! It's so great to meet you! I'm so glad you're considering Pawsome Pet Care for your furry family's needs! I am a college student who absolutely adores animals. I have grown up on a farm with cattle, sheep, horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, and of course dogs and cats. I have had 2 sets of puppies that I helped care for and train for their new families and a litter of kittens as well. I have cared for animals of all ages including newborns all the way over 15 years old. I have 6 years of official petsitting experience, but I have almost 20 years of experience as a pet owner. I have also owned a chameleon and a turtle and cared for a bearded dragon and a snake. I do work 6:45am to 3:45pm daily in Murray, KY. I do get an hour for lunch so if the home is local I would be able to go back at lunch to care for the animal if needed. My weekends are open so long as im not already booked! Thanks again for the consideration! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine. I have had animals my entire life so feeding, walking, playing with, and loving my animals has always been a constant for me. Doing pet sitting is no adjustment for me because it's been my entire life. I love caring for animals. I cannot care for animals in my home because my Great Dane gets very stressed out when new animals come to the house. That being said, I have a great support system to take care of my babies while I take care of yours. So, I am more than happy to come to your home and keep your babies in a space they feel comfortable. I will keep them on the same routine they are used to so that the transition is as seamless as possible. Being sure to throw in some extra love and understanding along the way.

About: Hi! I’m Kelly, 32 years old, with 11 years of experience in the veterinary field and 10 years of pet sitting for clients. I have plenty of references and a true passion for animals. I’m currently pursuing pet sitting full-time and offer in-home visits, feeding, drop-in care, walks, and more. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. I know there are lots of great options on Rover, and I hope you find the perfect match for you and your fur babies. If you’d like to chat, I’d love to help care for your pets! 🐾💛 I am currently not working and am doing petsitting full time keeping your babies in their routine. I am very flexible for your pets needs. I care for pets in the clients home right now as I am unable to board in my home due to my pets being territorial.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my genuine love for animals and my dedication to providing personalized care for each pet. I have experience with puppy training, ensuring they feel safe and learn healthy habits, as well as senior pet care, offering patience and attention to their unique needs. I pride myself on building trust with both pets and their owners, treating every animal as if they were my own. I am also a very active individual and love going on walks with my own dogs! I am currently working part-time and have the spare time to care for your pet when needed! I am currently available most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Friday morning, as well as Sunday as needed. If you have a fence, I can let your pet out. If you do not have a fence, I would be happy to walk your pet at any local trail or neighborhood. I can provide a leash if necessary!

About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.

“My dogs were taken such great care of for the weekend I was gone! They looked so happy in every picture that was sent! I would definitely recommend Hanna!”

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I enjoy spending time with animals big and small, some pets might need time to get to know you. I understand and pay attention to pet behavior I am patient, respectful, trustworthy, I have no problem cleaning up after pets. I also offer home cleaning and house keeping services if needed. I have no other commitments right now at the moment i am open for scheduling and looking forward to getting to know you and your pet. I would be doing pet care in the clients home animals feel more comfortable in their own homes and I am not able to bring them to mine for the time being. I will be asking clients what their expectations will be during our introduction to make sure I can provide the best service and quality care for their pet.

About: I’ve always had/been around dogs. With that comes responsibility and loving care. I have experience with all sizes and willing to accommodate any special needs. I’m currently a college student at Murray State, almost all my classes are online besides on Tuesday. My schedule is flexible, we can work out a time/date together. I do go to church on Sunday, so I would need that morning/afternoon off. I am a big cuddle bug. I pay attention to the small details. I enforce rules while trying to add some tricks. I keep the environment light and I try to accommodate in anyway for my clients and their babies(dogs).

“Kayla was amazing! I needed a sitter very last minute and she was perfect. She was prompt in answering the booking request and any messages. She took amazing care of my crazy pups and made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing and made sure everyone ate and went potty. Will 100% be using her again!”

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.
