About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10 years old. I love taking them for walks, feeding them, giving baths, and most importantly, showering them with love. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me because they know I treat every pet as my own—with patience, respect, and lots of affection. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and energy to care for your furry friends. I’m available for boarding on weekends, and on weekdays after 2 p.m. I can also adjust my schedule for drop-in visits, walks, or special care if needed. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. In my home, they’ll be in a clean, secure, and loving environment. During walks, I always use safe leashes and pay close attention to every detail. I follow your instructions exactly, so you can have peace of mind knowing your best friend is in caring hands.

“Leia was such a kind loving soul. The minute I met her I knew I had made the right choice. She took care of my cats as if they were her own. I left so many instructions and she followed each one perfectly.When I travel again there is no question that I will call on her. For loving, quality care you cannot get any better.”


About: Hi! I’m Kayla. I’ve had dogs & cats since i was little. I currently have a dog of my own ( a Yorkie mix). My parents also have our childhood dog and three cats. I absolutely love cuddling with my babies and giving them lovings. I believe that us humans are not good enough for the sweet souls of our fur babies. So, i do my best to spoil mine and will spoil yours too 😊. I have a very flexible schedule. Available for multiple walks daily or even available for drop in visits to check on your baby while you’re away! Taking your babies for walks, feeding them + giving them water or even medication ( I have experience in giving meds as my smaller dog is a senior baby who needs lots of attention + takes anxiety meds).

About: I currently live in La Vergne with my one dog that I adopted a few years ago. He is 10 now, He is very chill and can get along well with other dogs and even cats, he is not neutered. My brother lives in the house with me, Bulma is his 3 year old German Shepard mix, she stays in his room usually and is a total Velcro dog. She is not aggressive and unspayed. I love animals and intend to treat your fur babies just like my own. I've also been known to take the cutest pictures of pups that stay with us! Please reach out for any questions, we can't wait to meet you! I work night shift on the weekends so I have plenty of time to be with your pet during the day and through out the week. Our dog enjoy our backyard that we share with two pet chickens! Plenty of room to get the zoomies. We also go on night walks when the weather is right.

“Maggie was beyond wonderful to my cats. She sent lots of photos after each visit so that I could see how everyone was doing. I will definitely be asking for her to sit for me in the future.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up in a home full of both dogs and cats. Over the years, my family has loved and cared for Chiweenies, Pyrenees, Labs, Yorkies, and more. Now, at 26, I have a home of my own with four cats and a Beagle. We also have a family member’s Beagle who visits regularly for playdates, so I’m used to managing multiple pets and making sure everyone feels happy and loved. I work full time as a teacher during the week, but I’m available on Saturdays and Sundays for daytime walks and drop-in visits. I’m looking to connect with pet owners who need reliable, regular weekend care. I respect your home and routine as if it were my own. I’m attentive to your pet’s needs, ensure a safe environment, and keep a close eye on their comfort and wellbeing. I communicate promptly with any questions or updates and will alert you immediately if anything unexpected occurs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities at all times.

About: I understand the stress of traveling and having worry of who will watch the fur babies. I got ya covered! In house or drops in available. Special diets will be followed and medications can be discussed! My house has a fenced in yard and I do have 2 small dogs myself. Dixi who is 6 years and Chubbs who’s 12. My dogs are my babies and they are spoiled! Your pets will be loved on and taken care of the way you would take care of them. I work from home so my dogs are on a regular feeding and potty schedule. They love to bask in the sun and come inside when they are ready! Daily walks are nightly for them unless weather permits. I will ask questions to help me understand your dogs needs and schedule. Daily updates will be given to ensure the dogs are shown being safe and well taken care of! I ask for specific instructions with commands to not confuse the dog.

“Toni just watched my dog for the first time this weekend and was amazing!! She is very attentive and playful with my lab. She went above and beyond for us when we had meal prep arrive too early and even loaded them into our fridge for us so that they wouldn’t spoil before we got back. We will definitely book with her again very soon!”


About: I am a proud fur mama of two dogs and two cats! I am attentive and loving. I love taking my pups on long walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and socialization. I own a mini poodle/Maltese mix and a lab/Great Dane mix at 128lbs. I am great in handling large dogs and am also educated in the use of the e-collar when you have a pup in training. Rest assured your animals will be loved and kept busy until you come home. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me, I look forward to meeting you and your babies. Thank you very very very very (sorry they want 125 words) much for looking at my profile. I work remote and travel for work infrequently. I have a spouse that can manage our animals at home while I care for your babies. My pets are on a schedule. They have standard potty breaks and get fed at the same time each day. We make our own dog food and give lots of belly rubs. Additionally, I can work with existing training regimens I have familiarity with e-collar and treat motivated training.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 8 years old, from puppies to hamsters and baby ducks. I’ve helped my Yorkie through labor and cared for my senior dog until his last breath. I believe animals are innocent creatures who deserve a fulfilling life full of love and care. In my free time, I like to volunteer at the animal rescue center helping cats and dogs who were left helpless. At the shelter, volunteers care for them, feed and bathe them, and get them accustomed to humans, building trust through walks and playtime. I’d love to get to know your loving pet and treat them as family! I’m currently working a part-time job so I’d love to meet as many pets as possible! I’m open on the weekends for drop-ins and playtime/potty break visits. I’m also open on weekdays, but it depends on the week so please give me a heads up! I’m an early bird, so I prefer visiting early in the morning until 3pm. I have a spacious fenced backyard that my Yorkies love to play in. They are the real bosses of the house, so they’re spoiled to the max. They love long walks, car rides, and treats!
