“Stephanie did an amazing job at taking care of my cat. She was a great communicator throughout the process and super sweet. She went above and beyond what I expected, I would highly recommend her!”

“Ashley was wonderful to work with! She was very communicative, kind, and eager to help our pup. She went the extra mile to make sure he was well taken care of while we were out of the house. Would definitely love to have her help again!”

About: Hi! My name is Beth! I absolutely love animals! My husband and I have four dogs and four cats that we care for. They are our babies! So, I know how important getting the best care for your fur babies is! I can walk, feed, play or just check in for a potty break if need be. I had an older dog that had to take medicine every day for cancer, sadly he has passed on. So I am also able to give medicine if that's what your baby needs. I am also available to check on cats. I work as a school photographer, so if you need pictures of your babies while I am caring for them I will be more than happy to provide that! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I work a Monday through Friday job, usually until about 5pm. So I am available for drop-ins and walks, I am available anytime on Saturday and Sunday, and then Monday through Friday in the evenings or really early mornings. I unfortunately cannot care for anymore in my home, especially since I have an over protective pit mix who is very jealous. However in the clients home, I am very respectful and a people pleaser. I will do exactly as directed to the very best of my ability.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 150-pound large breeds. I currently own two cats and have previously cared for a pit bull mix, miniature schnauzer, toy poodle, and many other pets over the years. I have experience with senior pets, anxious/reactive animals, and administering medications both through food and oral syringes. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and have cared for up to five dogs and one cat at the same time. I truly love spending time with animals and enjoy taking dogs on walks and jogs, playing with them, and giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and always strive to make both pets and owners feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m currently a full-time student and work part-time, but pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. With at least two weeks’ notice, I’m able to accommodate my work schedule even more to provide reliable care for your pets. I’m dependable, flexible, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, jogs, cuddles, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and keep you updated along the way. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, including senior pets and anxious/reactive animals, so I understand the importance of patience, awareness, and creating a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet may need. I’m also a strong communicator and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Karen always takes great care of my (sick and complicated) cat. She is an excellent communicator and very conscientious. She even suggested a great solution when her schedule precluded her covering part of an upcoming trip.”
“Kayla was so amazing! Our dogs felt really comfortable with her and we knew they were well taken care of. She also left us a sweet thank you note and some adorable photos of our pups!”

About: Hey there! I'm your go-to pet sitter with a decade of experience working with all kinds of furry friends. From dogs to cats, I've got you covered. Need medication administration? No problem! With my expertise, your pets are in safe hands. When I'm not caring for your adorable companions, you can find me enjoying the company of my own two dogs and three cats. And guess what? I've got a fantastic fenced-in yard perfect for playtime! Let's give your pets the love and care they deserve. I’m currently a student at the University of Tennessee so I am available most afternoons and very early mornings. I also am home every evening for the entire night so overnight boarding is available. I am also completely free on weekends so if you want to have a date night, a shopping run, or just need someone to watch your babies while you take a well deserved nap, I got you! At home pets will be taken care of by preference or directions from the pet owner. I have multiple rooms in the house so if there are some older pals or some friends that are just a little more introverted, they will be made to feel as comfortable as possible with some one on one time to avoid over stimulation. I can take them on walks or let them play in the yard alone with my supervision. For those fluffy balls of energy that need more stimulation, my dogs and cats LOVE to play and run to their hearts content! My dogs are very social and have their whole lives experience playing and meeting new animals! Whether it’s playtime and long walks or cuddles and naps I am able to cater to your pets needs so that you can sit back and relax worry free!
About: Growing up on a farm equipped me with invaluable knowledge and hands-on experience with various animals. I am a reliable and compassionate caregiver dedicated to delivering exceptional care to every animal I encounter and have the opportunity to love on. I have two dogs of my own, a basset hound and an English mastiff, as well as caring for my moms senior Maltese. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pet! I have flexible open availability to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I am a stay at home mom looking to do this full time and put my heart into treating my client’s pets as my own. When I house sit for a client, I treat their home as if it were my own and their pets as if they were mine. I keep the same routine that the pet is used to and do my best to make them feel as comfortable as possible, all while keeping the owner updated on how their pet is doing. It is my greatest goal to have happy and satisfied pets and owners.
“I have booked Jazzy twice and she has been amazing with my two cats ! She communicated with me when checking on them, sent me pictures, and made sure that they were taken care of. Will definitely be booking her again!”


“Ethan and Paylee connect at first greet. He was very responsive and keep me well informed with his activities. I will recommend him to anyone for his use and plan on using him in the future.”

About: Medically retired Veteran and stay at home dad with lots of time on my hands to care for fur kids and keep a watchful eye on them. I have dog sat for friends' pets and personal pets that I've owned for over 30 years. I don't currently have another job. So, aside from medical appointments, I don't have any issues with daily or weekly routines. I should be able to conform to any and all needs. I always care for every pet as though that pet were my own. I know how sensitive each pet can be, so I try my best to keep that in mind when dealing with someone else's pet.
“We will always choose Jessica as our first pick for a pet sitter! Our babies love her and it is wonderful to be able to travel without worries and knowing they’ll be taken care of!”


“So glad we found Stephanie to take care of our fur babies. Our dog and cat just adore her. She is super reliable and always in constant communication about visits and any concerns. She has a heart for all animals and treats them like the loved family members they are. Stephanie even braved the ice and snow to make sure our dog was taken care of. Great service and we will use her again.”

About: I have had animals since I was born, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters, and loved every single one! I have experience watching neighbors and friends' pets since middle school and I am a college student now. I did a clinical internship at a vet and I am well versed in animal care. Whether that means walking, bathing, medicine administration, grooming, or just cuddles, I'm your girl! :) I have a part time serving job this summer and will be back to being a full time student in the fall. My part time job is very flexible and allows me ample time to check up/watch your pet. I will update my schedule every 2 weeks. I have cared for lots of animals and am able to crate your animal or put them away safely as needed. I also have lots of animal equipment (leashes, crates) on hand if there is any need to transport your pet.

About: I have several years of experience with pet sitting and dog walking. I grew up with dogs and have two cats of my own. I love animals and have been around them my whole life. I've cared for both dogs and cats for friends, family, and clients, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to overnight stays and check-ins. I'm very active, so I love taking dogs on walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I'm also attentive and patient, which helps me work well with all types of pets. Whether they're energetic, shy, or need a little extra care. I'm reliable, responsible, and treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and I always make sure to stick to their routines and give them plenty of care and attention. I am currently home for the summer in between semesters of school. I have lots of availability day or night for the next month. And love to be outside and in nature I have a great home that’s in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. It is not fenced in but is mostly secluded from anyone else, and has lots of walking and playing area.
