“Jen was absolutely amazing! 10/10. We booked her with a short notice and she still came over the meet the dogs before we left. She kept us updated and even checked the mail and helped sit a package outside for me. She walked the dogs and fed them and snuggled them each day while we were gone! We came home and she had cleaned everything up and washed her bedding and made it all back up! She went above and beyond. Highly recommend Jen!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals pretty much my whole life. I have a huge heart bucket for animals. All animals deserve snuggles, hugs, and sunshine. I am looking to make this my main source of income so I’m free according to YOUR schedule which makes this easier! I’m young and can take your pets for runs! My cat and I have a routine, we play a lot and play Tag and fetch with his favorite ball. I feed him 2x a day and then we sit outside from time to time. He roams the apartment and does pretty much whatever.

About: I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 10 cocker spaniels and 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I really know how to care for animals. I also am experienced in special needs dogs, my parents have a cocker spaniel who has special needs and he’s the sweetest dog i’ve ever met. Me and my girlfriend do this together and she is an amazing help, she’s cared for many animals like horses, dogs, cats, and fish. she’s like an animal whisperer.. she always knows what the animal wants and needs and always tends to them. she especially knows how to make dogs feel at home. ❤️🔥🐾 I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. 🐾 What i offer : • Boarding (Overnight stays) • At your home doggie sitting • Day care • Walking • Drop in visits • Clean, and spacious home • Structured play time, nap time and lovin time • Fully fenced in yard for supervised outdoor play and potty time • A calm living space where pups are free to play and relax • Lots of squeaky toys and stuffed animals 🦴🧸 • Doggie pool for the hot summer days 💦 • 2 walks a day 🐕 if they need more we are happy to provide more walks :) I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why i am firm on communication. I’ll send you updates, videos and pictures so you can see how much fun their having and be comfortable having them in my hands :) I am home most of the day, there may be a time where i have to run to do an errand like grocery shopping etc. My girlfriend is home all the time so she will be home to take care of your pups. Their safety and well being always comes first 🐶 Im 18 and work from home with my girlfriend. We are available 7 days a week. I have a fully fenced in yard so your pup can play outside and be safe. My home is tidy, and very clean. We make sure everything is put away. We know how it is to have a pup that likes to put everything in their mouth so we make sure to vacuum and mop. I live in a quiet little neighborhood. My house is a very spacious 4,000 square foot home and it was a church before it was turned into a house so it’s very unique. I have a cocker spaniel and a brittany mix, they are both very sweet and love new company. My brittany is 15 so he kinda just lays around but my cocker spaniel is 3 so she loveeesss to play.

“Sean went over and above to provide communication about the sit and Jack’s status. He gave him so much kindness and attention that we couldn’t have asked for more. 100% recommend!”


“We are so grateful to Brittany for taking the best care of our dog Ace and cat Bobby over the long weekend at our house! We got updates at least twice a day on how they were doing, and lots of pictures of two happy pets! She sat outside in the yard with our dog Ace to enjoy the sunshine (something he loves!) and she also took him to the park several times! She was very patient with Ace when it took him some time to warm up to her too. You can tell she's knowledgeable about animals, and loves to be around them! She took great care of our house as well, and we just can't thank her enough!”


“Annabeth is amazing! She watched 4 of our pets while we were gone on vacation to St. Augustine. She sent pictures of the pets and had great communication skills. She was very polite and gave us great feedback when we asked about how the stay was because this was our first time using Rover. We have already offered her a 2nd job for the winter if she is available because she did so great. This is the person that you want watching your pets! She put us at ease and we felt that our pets and house were in good hands.”


About: My name is Kristen and I am 35 years old. I would like to offer to you my dog services to you, which would include watching your dog, walking, running, feeding and making sure they have plenty of exercise!! I have a true love for animals and love working with them. I have much experience with different breeds of dogs and would like to meet your friend!! I also will offer pick up and drop off to better serve you. About this sitter: I love working with people and their pets!! I am able to walk, run, and play with your dogs whenever you need me! I care for pets by greeting them and playing with them, taking them on runs or walks, giving them extra affection and attention and treats!

“Kelsey was the absolute sweetest. She came prior to my trip to meet my two cats so she could learn a little about them and my apartment before hand! Kelsey watched them over a holiday weekend where I assumed there would be lots of commotion and fireworks in our area and she was very communicative in reassuring me that the cats were safe. She sent me photos of the cats every night and they looked so so happy! In addition to all of these amazing things, we came home to our apartment fully cleaned even tho we told her no cleaning was necessary. Kelsey really helped to alleviate the anxiety of traveling and leaving your pets at home for me!”


About: I’ve had experience pet sitting for dogs, cats, and rodents. I also worked with Toedters Isle of Frenchies (ethical frenchie breeders) and volunteer at Shane’s Kitty Adoption Center. I’ve studied animal science and vet science through Murray State. I have also gained a lot of experience through owning animals of my own, such as dogs, cats, and other small animals. I currently work part time, I updated my schedule weekly. Weekend afternoons are typically free, I also make sure to update my schedule though. Hopefully I’ll get to make more furry friends and ease your mind while you’re animal is in safe care:) I always make sure animals are comfortable with me first. Letting them sniff me, helping them stay relaxed, feeling unthreatened. I’ll follow any certain steps you need if your animal requires special care. I like my animals to have a clean home, which includes cleaning food and water bowls daily, wiping out cages, fresh blankets. So I’ll make sure your animal is treated just as well!

About: I’ve walked dogs of every breed weekly for 5 years at an animal shelter, so I have lots of experience caring for and walking dogs of all shapes and sizes. I can handle large dogs and small dogs without issue, I love all dogs equally!! I was taught all the signs of dogs so I know how to read their emotions and adjust accordingly. I love to play with dogs and cuddle as well when they are up for it. My family has had a dog my whole life so I have lots of care experience. I work full time during the week (7-3), so after and before work is when I can walk or let out dogs. My weekends are completely free for boarding, walking, and sitting! I can also let dogs out on my lunch break depending on distance. I have 1 dog in my home, he is a sweetheart so no worries there! I also live alone so no issues with roomates or space. I have a yard and a dog park in my neighborhood, but it is not fenced. I pay strict attention to dogs I am watching and make sure they are always happy and healthy, I do not take my eyes off of them! I walk dogs focused with no music or phone distraction to make sure I am ready for anything, and I have handled aggressive dogs often and can adjust when needed. I always clean up if accidents happen, and I leave places better than I found them, always!

About: As a pet sitter, my greatest joy comes from the wagging tails and purrs of contentment I receive from the animals in my care. Each pet is unique, and I take pride in understanding their individual needs and personalities. Whether it's a playful pup who loves fetch or a cuddly cat who enjoys a good nap, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. Knowing that I can provide peace of mind to pet parents and a comfortable environment for their furry friends is what makes pet sitting so rewarding for me. I am freshly graduated from empire beauty cosmetology school. I now work in a restaurant so I have mornings and early afternoons available and nights. I have 2 dogs at home and used to have a cat. Everyday it is my duty to feed, water, and play with my pups to keep them happy and healthy, and I can do the same for yours!

“Jordan met my pets before house sitting. I could tell right away that he was interested in my 2 dogs and a cat. He got down on their level and rubbed ears and neck exactly as they prefer. He was wonderful even doing little chores around the house unasked but very appreciated. All my pets are on meds and he managed them without difficulty even my cat’s ear med. Usually when I get home, my cat cries for a day as she is so happy to be back on her routine with me. This time she hardly peeped, letting me know that Jordan had been a pretty good substitute. I really wish I could keep Jordan a secret but I guess I need to share how good he is.”


“Rachel did such an amazing job caring for our labradoodle, Stella. She’s 3 and never been left alone for more than a few hours. Rachel eased our minds and took wonderful care of her while we were gone for a last minute trip! Rachel was very kind, understanding and easy going. She made the process very easy and painless. She also did a great job communicating with us. We highly recommend Rachel!”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life! All of my dogs have been raised by me since birth, and I easily fall for puppy dog eyes I’m currently a college student back home for summer break with a ton of extra time! I’m looking to keep my schedule busy helping others around and near me. I treat any animal I see or visit as if they were my own!! I have so much love for every fur baby out there.

About: "With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from playful puppies and senior cats to Guinea pigs and hamsters. I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, nutrition, and health. My compassionate approach ensures every pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for, while providing peace of mind to their owners." As a self employed person my schedule is generally flexible. I am available most days and I wouldn’t accept a service that I am unable to commit to if my work interrupts. If planned in advance, I can create my schedules around your needs. As a dog walker I will take whichever route is best for your pet. If they prefer a certain direction I will happily take them. If they are curious and want to go somewhere else, I’m good for that too! As a sitter in your home I will always do my best to stick to any routines they are familiar with to ease any anxiety of their humans not being home for them. I’m happy to sit or check on cats if owners are traveling. I know most cats are okay with a clean litter box and food. They are certainly self sufficient little critters. I have 5 in my own home and care for 15 feral fur babies that we attempt to spay or neuter when we can catch them and release them back to our yard where they know food is always available. They also have warm homes for those cold winter nights.
