“Kelsey did a great job taking care of our fur babies while we were away. We received thorough, report cards each visit. We had an unexpected need arise that she was happy to help with too, You can tell she really loves what she does. Very reliable!”


About: I LOVE dogs and cats. I have had dogs and cats of my own my whole life of all breeds and sizes. From over night stays, to just a quick check in I will be available for any need your dog(s) may have. Activities I enjoy most with dogs- walks, inside & outside playtime, and doggy cuddles. I am willing travel to reach you around the Dickson/ Hickman County areas. I am also willing to take dogs to appointments/dog parks in my car so I am versatile and mobile. I try my hardest to be flexible with my schedule to be available at different times as much as possible. No dog is too small or too big. No dog is too young or old. Trust me to take care of your dog care needs. Please note I don't mind dropping in to help with cats and walking cats also. Just due to allergies I cannot have them in my own home. I work from home and my husband and I are home most nights and weekends. So, he will be around your animals as well in our home. Any drop in visits and walking I will be handling myself. We have two (female) dogs of our own who require medications and extra care. So, we are familiar with routines for dogs with special needs/ requests as well. I have also had dogs in my care from newborn puppies to senior dogs. So, I am used to furry friends of all ages and sizes. In home we have two (female) dogs of our own who get along great with other dogs. Our home offers a fenced in back yard so dogs can hangout outside or inside. There are various dog beds throughout and an extra room to allow for personal space, alone, and quiet time. Going to other's homes I stay mindful of a dog's or cat's space and preferences, as well as clients personal property. I also have access to nearby dog parks and I live in a neighborhood where I can walk dogs for extra exercise as well.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. With plenty of experience, I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, flexible with scheduling, and always willing to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just keeping your furry friend company, I’m here to help! I work a full-time rotating schedule where I’m on for 7 days straight and then off for 7 days. My work week always starts on a Thursday and ends on a Wednesday. During those 7 workdays, I’m working full-time each day. After that, I get a full week off to rest and take care of personal things. It’s a repeating cycle—7 days on, 7 days off—so every other week I’m either working or completely off I pet sit because I genuinely love what I do — and animals love me back. Their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. When pets stay with me in my home, they become part of the family. I make sure every animal is well-fed, always has fresh water, and most importantly — plenty of playtime and affection. They get a safe, loving environment where they can relax and feel right at home. When I care for pets in your home, I follow all instructions to the letter — from feeding and medication routines to special care details. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Respecting your space and your pet’s routine is always a priority. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them, your pet gets the same thing: love, attention, and top-notch care.

“Madison exceeded all expectations! Our regular pet sitter had an unexpected emergency right before we left on a two week trip, the longest we’ve ever been away from our two fur babies. Needless to say we were devastated and left scrambling to find a reliable and trustworthy substitution. Madison did a meet and greet beforehand to explain her qualifications, answered any questions we had, and made sure to thoroughly understand the expectations of what we needed done to ensure peace of mind for us. She provided extensive details for us everyday and sent cute pictures of our animals so we could get a glimpse of how they were faring while we were away. She really takes the time to get to know the animals and it is reflected in her outstanding work ethic how much she truly cares. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone needing a sitter. Thank you Madison for providing excellent care for our babies, you made our vacation that much more enjoyable knowing there was once less thing to worry about back home!”


“Tara is a great caretaker, my dog and cat loved her! My dog especially enjoyed the walks and attention. Tara is really great with cats as well and my cat took interest in her very quick.”


“Madison was very nice and easy to work with. I was out of options, and decided to download rover last minute. I am very glad I did because it was a great experience. I highly recommend Madison if you want somebody that cares for your pups and communicates/works with you to satisfy your needs. I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”


“I am so grateful for Vickie! She was able to check on my cat several times with basically no notice when my original sitter had an emergency. She was communicative and thorough and sent me photos during each visit. I felt assured that Pumpkin was well taken care of.”


“Lonie has been wonderful with our pets! We have two big dogs and a cat. She’s taken great care and attention to each! She’s respectful, on time, and always communicates with me which I appreciate so much! Plus I love seeing all the photos she uploads of the animals while we’re gone :) couldn’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 7. I have always had dogs in the house since I’ve been a little kid. I often house sit as well as dog and cat sit for neighbors anytime they need!

About: I have taken care of many pets over the years, love to go on walks and play with the animals! Would love to cuddle yours! I am a homeschool mom with several pets of my own. I have daily flexibility with my schedule and can assist with your pets daily care. We have a big yard and can take the pets out on a leash to walk and potty.

About: I worked as a veterinary technician and ICU nurse at a veterinary teaching hospital for 11 years. I have a farm where I have 2 cats, chickens, 3 dogs, 2 dachshunds and an Australian shepherd. I would love to pet sit your pups and provide an adventurous, peaceful, home away from home. Most weeks I am working from home so I am here all day with my pets and yours. I give numerous potty breaks throughout the day along with pasture walks and trail hikes, all on my property. If I leave for appointments or errands, I am gone no more than 4 hours. I have 22 acres that my pups (and cats and chickens) roam on. The front is fenced and gated but there are still places around the perimeter that does not have a full fence. I can easily keep your pup on a leash while staying if desired. I am happy to crate your pup if you desire during bedtime and/or when I am out for a few hours. I have multiple sizes of crates available so you will not have to bring. I have a background in veterinary medicine and never let my pups out of my sight while we are outside playing.

About: I’ve worked in a vet's office and taken care of pretty much all animals over the years. I grew up showing horses competitively on a small farm with chickens, ducks, cattle, rabbits, pigs, dogs, and cats. Since then I’ve owned and cared for miniature donkeys, standard poodles, Weimeraners, Dalmatians, cats, and chickens. As long as it’s not a reptile, I’m game. I love those who need something extra that your normal pet sitter may not be comfortable with - and I also love all the others who don’t need anything special! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work around pretty much whatever you need. One thing’s for sure - I will be honest with you. If I can’t do it, I will tell you. I will come to your home and care for your pets just as you do! I don’t need a pre-visit (unless you would like that) - you can show me by FaceTime or you can leave me a note. I am also more than happy to have a pre-visit! I like to communicate with you while you’re away so you know how things are going at home.

About: I have a ton of experience with all sorts of animals. I have seen it all! I’ve pet sat puppies, senior dogs, aggressive cats, kittens and a lot more. I have experience with giving medication to animals as well! I truly would take great care of your animal and of course send you updates. I quit my job so i am just doing pet sitting so i have plenty of time to hangout with your animals or go on long walks and even play. I treat all animals how I would want someone else to treat mine. they have free range of the house. They’re able to jump on the couch and have a good time!

She's incredibly attentive to their needs and genuinely enjoys spending time with all animals.
