“This was our first time using Rover, and Lisa was great. She was friendly to work with, and extremely conscientious. She gave us regular updates on all four cats, and really helped make our first experience a good one.”
“Karson did a great job with our 3 cats. We came home to happy babies after fall break. Great communication and was nice enough to vacuum even though I didn’t ask. I will absolutely reach out again the next time we leave! ?”
About: I have had my own dogs, cats, birds, fish, and gerbils. I treat them all with respect and love. I am very reliable and responsible. I currently have an open schedule, so can be flexible and we can discuss options as needed and work around what fits for everyone involved. I am able to board or day care a pet at my home, which has a large fenced yard. Also can do home visits or walks.
About: I’m a proud dog mom to two pups—one full of energy and the other a total couch potato—so I’m used to handling different personalities! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I’m currently studying online for my real estate license, so my schedule is super flexible! I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else—that’s why I prioritize communication and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your pet may have.
About: I've raised, nurtured & loved long-lived dogs & cats my entire adult life. I've fostered dogs & cats for Humane Society affiliate in Kentucky, performed dog rescue transport & cared for my friends' pets. I am retired and home most of the time to pamper, love on & protect your fur baby in my home, drop-in at your pet's happy place and to take your fur ball for walks. I have a large, fenced & level back yard. 24/7 access is through a doggie door off the sunroom. I am a recent pet widow so your pet will have my full attention in my home.
“Karen is the best! Not only does she take great care of Hobie with lots of pictures but she also was kind enough to take pictures of my chickens even though I didn’t ask her to take care of them. It just proves that she cares a lot about all animals!”
“Stephanie wow, she has such a beautiful energy, my puppy baby onyx fell in love with her instantly! Stephanie is kind, easygoing, hardworking, and very professional! I truly appreciate her excellent way of communicating and notifying me about her visits. So grateful.”
“Emma was absolutely amazing, I was a little hesitant given that my dog weighs more than her but she had him on his back acting like a big ole baby within two minutes of them meeting each other.”
About: While I have cared for a number of my own pets over the years, I also held down a career as a veterinary technician. With this experience, I not only gained medical knowledge, but also gained experience in pet handling, behavior management, and responsive training. I currently work a full time position with open remote capabilities. I work five minutes from my home and can easily make regular trips to the house to provide extra outdoor breaks to any pet. I also am very active with my own lovable hound dog. We take regular evening walks and spend every morning basking in the sun in our fenced in backyard. I care for every pet like they are my own. I respect every pet parents wishes on the care and safety of their pet but will also allow them to have the freedom and comfort that they would have in their own homes. We live in a child free home with a fully fenced in back yard in a quiet suburban neighborhood that offers a peaceful and safe place to live and play.
“Kayla was awesome! The dogs loved her and she was always on time. She also made sure to send pictures after every visit! Kayla even accommodated when our plans changed which was super helpful. We’ll definitely be using her services again!”
About: OVERVIEW: I work from home and love being able to give pets the consistent care and attention they deserve—whether that’s through boarding, house sitting, dog walking, or drop-in visits. I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years, including senior dogs with medical needs and dogs that benefit from extra training and enrichment. I have a 9-year-old Boxer named Alice, and we stay active with daily walks, playtime in our fenced yard, nature hikes, and lots of snuggles. I’d be happy to bring that same level of care, attention, and activity to your pet’s day—whether you're at work or away on vacation. In addition to general care, I also have experience with basic training and behavior support, and I’m happy to include enrichment activities or training reinforcement during our walks and drop-ins. SCHEDULE: Because I work from home, I’m able to be flexible with my schedule to meet your needs. Whether you need regular walks during the workweek, drop-in visits while you're at an event, or full-time care while you're traveling, I’ll do my best to accommodate. ENVIRONMENT: I have a fenced backyard and a friendly resident dog to keep yours company if they enjoy socializing. I can also easily crate if needed or feed separately. There’s a nature trail and a quiet park just a block from my home that I use regularly for walks. I also have plenty of toys and treats available to keep your pup happy. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed—just like family.
“Steven did a fantastic job taking care of our many cats (one with daily medication). Steven sent many videos and photos, assuring us that our cats were healthy and happy. His cleanup was really outstanding, leaving our cat areas so clean and tidy. We are grateful for his good care of our kitties.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I enjoy training commands and just spending time and playing with all animals in general. Each animal has their own personality and quirks and I love to discover that makes each animal unique. I currently work full time and am a dog mama of 2(11 years old and 6 years old) I have free time on evenings and weekends to care for your pals. I care for pets with the upmost care and respect towards the animals and their owners. My animals are my family and I will treat yours as the same.
“Alicia checked in on my cat while I was out of town. She was so loving and sweet with him, and really went above and beyond! If I ever need someone to watch him again, she’ll be the first person I contact!”
About: I have grown up around dogs since I was a baby. My family was big in showing and grooming so I’ve always taken care of family/neighbors dogs when then would be away. I love to spend time and play with and care for them! I used to volunteer at a humane society feeding animals and cleaning cages and taking them out for playtime I am a junior in college at Middle Tennessee State university and have a fairly open schedule. I will not be able to stay all day at a house but nights are definitely possible! I do live in an apartment so overnight boarding will not be offered, but my cat loves exploring the house and has so much fun!
