Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll treat your pets like family!
I am a lifelong animal lover. My best friend growing up was my chocolate lab. I have had several pets in my life since then…as many as four dogs and four cats at one time! I recently moved to the Nashville area from Charlotte, NC with my 12 year old lab mix (a foster fail) along with two dog-friendly cats. They bring me such JOY and are a very important part of my world! I have cared for three senior, geriatric dogs and understand what they need, raised many puppies (and potty trained a dozen of them), raised a dozen kittens (and rescued more!) and had a diabetic cat. I had a horse for 16 years, and have had hamsters, chameleons, fish, hermit crabs and a ball python! When my daughters left for college, I started fostering puppies and dogs for local and out of state rescue groups. And for a few years, I also enjoyed welcoming and caring for dogs in my home while their families were away. Animals make me happy and fill my heart and life. I am well equipped to care for your pets and their unique, special needs, whatever they may be, but mostly, I will be a trusted, reliable, fun and loving friend they look forward to visits from.

Safety, trust & environment
I know my pets are more comfortable staying at home with their routine disrupted as little as possible when I am traveling. And I know that having trusted care for my pets when I am away from them is such peace of mind. All of that is my goal for you and your pets! I want you and them to feel as comfortable and at ease as possible! I will care for them and your home as if they were my own.
Ratings and reviews
The best!!!!
Gayle was great! Winnie loved her, she had amazing communication!
Absolutely amazing!!!!
She was so sweet and my pets love her. Very knowledgeable and attentive to both dog and cat. We love all the pics and updates while on vacation, it help so much to know they were in loving hands. Highly recommend her!
We absolutely loved Gayle!! She helped us with our puppy during her very first week home, and we seriously could not have asked for someone better. She was so sweet and attentive with her, incredibly flexible with timing, and would even stay longer just to give her some extra love and attention while we were at work. Our puppy absolutely adored her and was always so excited to see her! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was being loved on and taken such good care of. We are so thankful we found Gayle and would recommend her in a heartbeat!
Gayle was wonderful and I know my dogs enjoyed their snuggle time with her😊

Schedule
I currently work from home and have some flexible availability to come love on your pets, whether you are home or away! Maybe it’s for a walk in your neighborhood, a romp in your yard, a game of fetch, a sunbathing snooze or a snuggle on the sofa! If your dog is up for a car ride, we can find some new places nearby to roam together! I am available throughout the day for feeding time, or just hanging together time! With some notice, and if you live nearby so I can easily check on my own pets and other Rover clients, I may be able to house sit and do overnight visits in your home as well.

- I’d like to know feeding routines and schedules, along with any meds or special care your pet may need. I’d also love to know how your pet typically acts when you are away and how they react to new people and routine, and of course anything else you find important to share! The more I know the easier our time will be together.
