Pet Sitting in Newbern

“Cheryl was wonderful during her check in visits with my kitten Callie. Very easy to communicate with and went out of her way to provide the best service. I hope she will continue to take care of my girl when needed in the future!”

About: I have takin care of animals since i was 5 from friends to family to strangers i love animals and they usually love my personality. I take care of a service dog full time and i almost always have an open schedule.Help me by letting me help you. Thank you. I walk dogs from pitts to yorkie mixes. From walking and playing to talking and bathing. I have cleaned up after them and loved them for who they are.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a wagging tail and a happy pup! 🐕 From tiny puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s going on long walks, giving belly rubs, or sticking to a special care routine, I treat every dog as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. ❤️ I’m currently attending Union University for nurse anesthesia. Being a graduate student gives me the perfect balance of structure and flexibility, which means I can easily make time for your furry friend. My schedule allows for breaks throughout the day, so I can stop by for walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets — it’s the highlight of my day — and I love incorporating their care into my routine as a fun and rewarding part of my week. Your dog’s safety and happiness come first. I will always follow your care instructions closely. I believe trust is built through consistency, communication, and genuine love for animals — so you can feel confident your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of many dogs & cats (and more!) in my lifetime, whether it was for family, friends, babies I have adopted, you name it! I will be available every weekday from 2pm-9pm and all weekend! I am very reliable and passionate about pets and animals. I can't wait to sit them! I can lovingly treat your pets with kindness and feed, crate, take on walks, give attention to and do what you think is best! ♡

About: While I don’t have any pets of my own, I have experience in taking care of family and friends pets, keeping them happy and healthy and having the owner satisfied with my work. I have fed, bathed, and walked pets all while keeping them safe. I work and volunteer part time so that leaves plenty of time to visit your pets! I can visit on tuesdays Wednesdays, and thursdays and some weekends! Unfortunately due to the apartment life I have no room to bring your pets to my home, which is also why I have no pets of my own, but at your home I will ensure that all your pet is safe and things will not harm him/her!

About: I spent last summer working at a kennel with over 60 hunting dogs. We prepared dogs for AKC/UKC hunt tests and field trials in competitions across the nation. I work with Doordash part-time which means my schedule is extremely flexible. The busy times for doordash are during lunch and dinner, but I'm able to schedule deliveries around pet care. All pets are different and require a unique approach and handling. There is no one-size-fits-all method even amongst a single breed. It won't take long for me to understand your pet and develop a routine around their needs.

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog, Manny, since I got him when I was 9. I also worked at a doggy day care/boarding/spa place for about 2 years and I loved everything about it! I’ve loved animals since I was a kid and it’s my passion. I just moved back to Dyersburg, my hometown, from a year in Washington state so I don’t have a 9-5 job currently, I just really want to do something with dogs so here I am! I’ll be available pretty much any time. I’ve been trained to take care of dogs before because at the doggy day care it was just me in charge of a room of like 50+ dogs and that can get crazy. I’ve learned the tells a dog gives about how they are feeling, how to break up fights and how to prevent them.

“Great communication through the whole process. Loved the pictures we got. Very responsive if we had questions. No qualms about using Rachel again. Everything looked great when we got back. Highly recommend.”

“Michele makes it super easy and I appreciate her!”

“Sheryl was the BEST ever, and we will definitely ask for her help again. She is super reliable and sweet, and is a dog-lover for sure :-) She kept both of our dogs super happy and healthy during our time away, and kept great communication with updates and pics. Wonderful!”

“Erica is the one! It was our first time leaving our dogs at home while we travel, because our bulldog is getting old with health issues. She gave us thorough updates with pictures while she was at our house (We did drop ins 2 times a day). Our Westie wasn’t eating, but Erica went out of her way to make sure she was well taken care of. We will definitely use her again 😊”

About: I will tell you a bit about me and I need to know about your dog as well. Before contacting me about caring for your dog, make sure their profile(s) is completed here on Rover. Upload a picture and submit as much info as you can provide. It helps me determine if your dog is a good fit for what I can provide. About me: Raised in the country surrounded by both family pets and farm animals, caring for critters is second nature to me. I am a doting grandma who lives too far away from my kids to see my grandchildren so I channel that attention toward my Australian Shepherd, Gumbo, and my new puppy, Boo, the Yorki-Poo. After I lost my husband and best friend I found the best way to cope is to help others and keep busy. If I can help you out with your dog or cat while you're away, let me know. I can use the extra income but also I need to feel useful. I keep my fee low. Tips are appreciated. I board at my home in the country near Dukedom, TN. Think of boarding here as bringing your dog to Grandma's house. There will be some spoiling and if pet parents permit, homemade dog cookies! Currently I am home all the time. Your dog will be with me and my dog while here. Gumbo (30 pound neutered male) likes to play fetch or frisbee and we do this daily. I feed my dog early morning (6-7) and early evening (6-7). I give a lot of outside time when weather allows. I give my dog a lot of attention and your dog(s) will get the same. We are a pack and your dog will be part of that pack when he/she stays with us. I live on 6 acres near Dukedom, TN. My large backyard has a chain link fence. If your dog likes to play ball or frisbee this is a great yard to do it in. In addition to the backyard, I have a large field that I keep a path mowed around just for walks but to go there your dog(s) must have excellent recall or be leashed trained very well. I don't want to be pulled around or have to struggle to hold them. Dogs really like going to the field. "No" is the word I use to stop misbehavior. If there is a different word you use, let me know. It is good to know what words/phrases your dog recognizes. It'd be great if you write those down and give it to me. I have carpet throughout my living quarters so PLEASE only housebroken dogs. I give numerous long outdoor time between 5 AM to 9 PM. Potty breaks are every couple of hours. Your pet must be vaccinated! Bordatella vacs are recommended every six-to-twelve months. if your dog frequents places with other dogs, get 6 month vaccine. My dogs are vaccinated. In the warmer months, it is very important that dogs have a flea and tick preventative or have some defense against these nasty bugs because both are out here. I keep grass mowed but they still get on the dogs so make sure they have a preventative. My dogs wear clothing treated with Sawyer flea/tick spray and I have had great success with that method along with a monthly prescribed medicine. Bring your pet's food/bowls/treats along with feeding instructions. Filling out pet profile in depth on Rover helps tremendously! It has an area for vet info and anything I would need to know about your dog can be on their profile! Gumbo has dog toys that he shares but if your dog has a fave, bring it. If your dog must sleep in a bed or crate, bring it. Sometimes a sweater or anything with your scent on it comforts a dog that misses his/her owner. You're welcome to bring that. If he/she has a brush that you want me to use, bring it. I can brush dogs but have no proper facility to bathe. In the summer, I have a small dog pool to cool off in and plenty of shade in the backyard. NO cell service out here so I do not carry my phone with me. I check my messages several times thru the day but I'm not like most that have their phone on them. It does me no good. Many rural people pay for cell service despite not getting it at their homes. I have a landline that works providing my internet service works. If there is anything else you need to know, do not hesitate to ask. I have my profile set to only take in three dogs at a time. I have two so I think five is enough. I am very attentive so rest assured I am keeping a good eye on them.

“Dana was amazing to check in on our elderly cat while we were gone. She was so kind and considerate to all of our cat’s needs and was available to talk to about our cat everyday! We are so grateful for her! 💕”
