About: My father raised and trained dogs so I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I have been personally caring for my own dogs as well as dogs of family and friends for the past seven years. I am medically trained for emergencies and can care for special needs and sick dogs. I will treat your pet with the love and kindness as I do my own. I can be available day and night, weekends and holidays even on short notice. I am hoping to make this a full-time position and will be available seven days a week 24 hours a day and can provide same-day service. I will follow all rules of the home in which I am sitting. I will never leave pets unattended. They will have my full attention and safety is my number one priority.
“Cheryl did an exceptional job staying at my house with my dog. My dog is acting like I never left, which shows she was comfortable the entire time. Bonus- the house was spotless. Thanks Cheryl!”
“Chloe did a fantastic job taking care of my pups! I loved all the photos and updates. They were happy and my home was as clean as I left it. Thank you, Chloe, Cohiba & Ollie look forward to seeing you soon!”
“This was the first time in almost 10 years Ive ever left my furkid with a stranger. Everything went great and Id book her again if im ever in Nashville! Thank you for taking good care of my baby!”
“THIS IS BIG! ROCCO LOVES CAITLIN :D! We threw EVERY spoiled little bratdog curveball at Caitlin and she delivered excellent poochy care with each loving pet, hug and cookie! (Truly, Schnoz was likely a cat in a previous life and is disgusted by all humans' inadequacies.) Caitlin spent three (probably long days) in our home with our moody little knucklehead .. and with us popping in and out. We were all a handful! Caitlin was prompt, caring, detail-oriented and devoted to Rocco having a bestest time ever while Mom & Dad were gallivanting around Funk Fest without him. (He even got to stop at his beloved Golden Lantern where all of the bartenders have finally earned their keys to his heart.) Our happiest moment was when Caitlyn sent over a picture of Rocco ALLOWING her to snuggle him. NO SMALL FEAT! Caitlin, you're a GODDESS, and we're thrilled to have found you! (Rocco is, too, even though he'll never admit it.) See you soon! :D”
“Ryan is conscientious, attentive to deal, kind, dog-loving -- he's the whole package!He was a support and trusted advisor to me on our recent trip when our older dog was not doing well. I cannot recommend him any more highly.”
“Michael is amazing!!!! Super reliable and friendly. Great with my special dog possum. Very communicative and truly left the house better than he found it.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and they’ve always been my favorite kind of company. I’m patient and keep things calm and low-key. I only watch one dog at a time, so you can rest assured that I will treat your dog as if they were my own. Since I work remotely, your dog won’t be left alone much and will get attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow whatever routine helps your dog feel most comfortable. Happy to send you photos and updates throughout the day as well. I’m flexible with pickup and drop off times. I will be with your pup all day, and they’ll get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. If they’re a high energy dog, they’ll get long walks. If they’re a senior or low energy, I’ll take them on shorter walks or just let them sniff in the yard.
“Anna did a great job taking care of our pup and watching the house when we were gone. She was very responsive and gave me updates throughout our trip. She did a great job!”
“Ashley took amazing care of our two dogs. Provided us with so many photos and updates and just went above and beyond. She made us feel completely comfortable that our dogs were in great hands while we were out of town. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Janna was great! She came by to meet our dogs before we scheduled our trip. The boys seemed to really like her. She asked good questions to get clarification on our instructions. When it came time for her to sit with the boys we had lost our old boy. So, she only had to take care of our young dog. He can be a real handful. She let us know she played outside with him and took him for several walks during the day. We are pretty sure he felt like a king! Some of our plans were cancelled and we did not have to rush back home so we asked if we could adjust the time she would be there. She was very flexible. Since we were returning the same day as planned only many hours later than planned, she returned late in the day to let him out. Not only did she let him out, she took him for another walk. Way above the call of duty! When we got home, Dugan was happy and relaxed. Janna left the house in great shape. She wash sheets - something I did NOT expect but truly appreciated. We were looking for a new "Go To" dog and house sitter and she fits the role perfectly. We will definitely be using Janna again.”
About: I have hands on experience with dog walking, house sitting, and cat sitting, and I’ve also had dogs of my own, giving me a strong understanding of daily care, routines, and pet behavior. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail oriented, making sure your pet stays on their routine and feels comfortable at home. I provide updates, follow instructions closely, and prioritize your pet’s safety and well being at all times. I’m currently a nursing student working part time, but I have a flexible schedule and make time for pet care. With summer break coming up, I’ll have significantly more availability and flexibility throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. I can accommodate more daytime care during the summer. I’m reliable with scheduling and make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I have experience caring for dogs and understand the importance of proper introductions, routines, and supervision. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and make sure your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away.
“Emily was the best pet-sitter we have ever had! She was caring, responsible, and had great communication. We received lots of pictures of our fur babies, and she checked in often, putting our minds at ease. We came home to very happy animals and our home was cleaner than how we left it. We will definitely be asking Emily to pet sit again!”
“Mackenzie was amazing with my 2 anxious Shiba Inus. She took her time to get to know them and they loved here. Mackenzie was communicative and did exactly what she said she would. I would definitely recommend booking her for your pets!”
“Martha stayed with our two pups while we were out of the country for a week and a half. She did an amazing job caring for our elderly dog who has some significant health issues. The dogs clearly loved her and were super loving with her. Thank you so much, Martha!”

“My dog is often anxious, and Abby was so patient and kind in working to get him comfortable. After the initial meet and greet she was willing to do another drop in the day before I left so they could meet again, and it made a huge difference! She communicated well during the stay and I felt totally confident that she had everything under control. Thank you, Abby!”
“This is the second time I’ve had Jan watch Ruby and I will definitely ask again next time I travel. Ruby is shy, and Jan is patient, caring, and gets her to come around pretty quickly. If you are looking for someone to trust to take care of your fur baby, I highly recommend Jan. Thank you again, Jan, so much!”
“Keily was reliable and great with our dog, Clark. He has separation anxiety and she helped to keep him calm with her own very calm presence. Keily was flexible with her schedule in meeting before sitting for Clark. We look forward to working with Keily again.”

Chloe was an excellent house sitter and took wonderful care of both our home and our dog while we were away. She was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and well cared for. We returned to a clean home and a happy dog, and it was clear that Chloe treated both with care and respect. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.
Daphne was wonderful with Estes. We are from out of town and she was super flexible so we could go and enjoy our time in NOLA! Daphne was prompt, communicative and did just as we asked. We are looking forward to our next trip back to the city. Knowing our dog was taken care of made our visit even more enjoyable when we are out and about. I’d recommend her to anybody!
We had a great experience with Mackenzie! She communicated throughout the stay, left the house clean, and took such good care of my dog. She even treated him to a pup cup, his favorite. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book with her again!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mike! From the moment we connected, Mike was professional, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Scout can be a bit anxious and requires extra attention, and Mike went above and beyond to make sure Scout felt comfortable, safe, and cared for. That meant the world to us. We received thoughtful updates and could tell Scout was in such good hands the entire time. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing our sweet pup was being so well cared for. Mike is reliable, attentive, and truly treats your pet like their own. We would absolutely recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Don’t hesitate—Mike is a gem!
Grace was fantastic. Being away from our pup over the holidays is never easy, but she made it so much better by being friendly, reliable, and very communicative - especially when some unexpected things came up on our street. We were also blown away when we came home to find she had gone above and beyond cleaning (vacuuming, dishes, linens), which we never asked or expected of her, but deeply appreciated. Her dog was sweet and got along well with Watson as well. We’d happily have Grace back anytime and highly recommend her!
Sarah is amazing… She walked in and could read the personalities of each one of our dogs within one minute of meeting them. She is clearly an animal lover and will take great care of your home and your pets. One of the best we’ve ever had! Thank you so much Sarah for watching our pups!!
I can’t recommend Wendy highly enough. She took care of my dog Fenn for 7 days at my house. She is very responsive and sends photos and videos (in which my dog is grinning ear to ear) everyday. She handles the meds well and even watered the garden. She has a very sweet low key personality so animals love her. I will definitely be using her again soon.
Kenzie provided outstanding care for my 14-year-old dog with special needs. She managed his medications reliably and gave him the patience and attention he requires as an older dog. It was clear she understood how to care for senior pets and made his comfort her priority. She also took excellent care of my cats, ensuring all of my pets were well looked after during my time away. I returned home to happy animals and a well-kept house. I highly recommend Kenzie to anyone seeking a responsible, dependable, and skilled pet sitter- especially for pets (and nervous pet owners!) that require extra care.
Will went above and beyond to make my cat (and me) feel comfortable during her first week alone. Our cat is very play motivated and Will ensured that she was fully entertained with ample play time and pets throughout the sitting. Will sent both pictures and videos and it was clear our cat was having a wonderful time. It was comforting to know I didn't need to worry about her while I was away. We will definitely be using Will again for future trips whenever possible.
