“We hired Rhonda after a bad experience boarding our dogs last year. My husband and I were nervous but as soon as she came to meet our dogs they loved her ? They started to fall asleep they were so relaxed with her. While we were on vacation she sent us plenty of updates and photos of the pups and I did not worry once about how they were doing, because I knew they were in good hands! They even ate the first day we were gone which they typically don’t do cause they are nervous. We highly recommend Rhonda and will definitely be using her again in the future. She truly loves what she does and really loves and cares about animals!! ❤️”


About: What sets me apart is my personalized care, flexibility, and deep love for animals. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all pet sitting — I take the time to understand your pet’s unique needs, routines, and quirks. Because I make my own hours, I’m able to give pets my full attention, whether that means extra potty breaks, longer walks, or simply more cuddle time. I treat every pet like family, keep communication open with regular updates, and create a calm, reliable environment where pets feel safe and happy. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals — and it shows in the way your pets respond to me. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule — I make my own hours, so your pet is my priority! Whether it’s early morning walks, midday potty breaks, or overnight stays, I can adapt to your pet’s routine. My open availability means I’m able to give your furry friend the time, attention, and consistency they need to feel safe and cared for while you’re away. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like family. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I offer: • Frequent potty breaks and outdoor time • Plenty of attention, snuggles, and play • Daily walks tailored to your dog’s energy level • A consistent feeding and medication schedule • Safe spaces for rest and downtime • Photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing I make sure every pet gets the individual care, love, and structure they’re used to — because they deserve nothing less!


“Arial was a WONDERFUL petsitter! I am the own of one cat, but was fostering 3 young kittens that the time, and had to leave town for a wedding. Not only did Arial fill in on short notice, but she took amazing care of my cat and the young kittens. The kittens needed to be administered medication and weighed daily. She also made sure to not any changes in bowel movements as instructed. She also made sure their area was clean and tidy! I thoroughly enjoyed the photos and videos updates she provided while I was away again. I loved coming back to happy and healthy cat/kittens and a clean home! I highly recommend Arial!”


“My dogs (one of whom is usually very anxious) seemed to instantly like Danielle, which is always such a relief when I leave them with a sitter. My house was clean and tidy when I returned, and my pooches were securely locked up in their crates and calm. Thankyou!”


“Ashley was amazing! She gave constant updates and was totally fine with all of the instruction I gave her because my dogs can be difficult at times. 10/10 would book again and recommend to a friend :)”


About: I’ve been pampering pets since I was a young whippersnapper. I adore all creatures and I’d be thrilled to hang out with yours while you’re away! Lifelong animal enthusiast with a work-from-home setup—perfect for quick pop-ins or flexible visits. My schedule shifts often, so if you need care in my area, feel free to check in. I might just be your pet’s next favorite human. I’d love to host your pet, but my dog insists she’s an only child. Plus, I’m currently bunking with family, so it’s more of a “no room at the inn” situation. But I’m totally available for drop-ins, walks and overnights 🐾

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.

About: I have a deep connection with animals of all kinds. I have 4 animals myself, 1 XL Bully,, 1 pitbull, and two sweet cats. My husband and I work together to care for our little babies , and we raised them and treat them like our own children. I believe in scheduled times for everything to positively reinforce the animals. I go to college and have no current job so I'm very flexible and can care for fur babies full-time. When I was in foster care in my youth, I had a foster mother who fostered animals, so I know the ins and outs of taking care of animals all around with meds. Trust my hands to care for your babies like they were my own🖤 I have a pretty free schedule as a new mom so I have plenty of time to come care for your pets ! I am very organized as well so I maintain a high expectation of myself to care for things in an orderly manner. I can not currently board animals in my home, but I have easy access to come visit your home and meet animals elsewhere to care for them. I love to supply photos, updates and create a safe space so pet parents know they can be vulnerable with me and trust me with their babies. I stay organized and bring a doggy or cat bag full of supplies and tools I may need on hand to support every animals well being that I care for.

About: I’m relatively new to pet sitting, but I’ve already cared for several dogs and absolutely love it. I’ve always loved animals and currently have a puppy of my own. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur baby, and I treat every dog with the same patience, playfulness, and care that I give my own. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I’m a nursing student, and pet care fits really well into my weekly routine. Since my class schedule is flexible and I do a lot of studying from home, I’m able to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. I’m available for walks or drop-ins in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, and always make sure your pup gets plenty of attention and consistent care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow any instructions you provide and make sure their environment is clean, secure, and stress free. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality so I can keep them calm, happy, and engaged. When caring for pets in my home, I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and a friendly puppy who loves having a playmate. I can also separate dogs if needed to ensure everyone feels comfortable. Whether your pup is staying with me or I’m coming to your home, they’ll have constant supervision, fresh water, safe play spaces, and plenty of love and attention.

“I’m more than happy with Alysse’s service! Het attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly demeanor truly made a difference in my cats & my experience. The care and effort she puts into making sure everything was perfect. Her dedication to her work is evident, and it did not go unnoticed. Thank you for going above and beyond to ensure that I was satisfied with the service. 🙏🏾”


About: i have grew up with dogs. i have worked at a dog boarding/daycare place where we feed, water and let dogs out and cleaned up after them if they made a mess. i am completely free anytime during the day unless i have a doctor appointment which i would communicate with you about! so i would be free anytime to let your fur baby out and feed them and play with them for a while and just spoil them more than they already are! if your babies were in a kennel i would let them out and play with them for as long as y’all would let me and if you had a fenced in yard or if they do fine out in the yard without a leash i would play with them outside and before i would put your babies up i would take them on a walk and make sure they used the bathroom!

About: Because I live on a farm I can care for cats, dogs, plus farm animals and more! Love puppies and caring for senior dogs and cats! I’m retired and can work any day of the week and can stay overnight if timing works out. I can also bring my dog or cat for a companion play date! I have dogs and cats that live inside our house and barn cats outside. To stay at my house I would use the stalls in my barn if inside did not work for your pet

“Lauren was an amazing house sitter! Responsible and reliable, respectful of our rules/routines with the dogs and took great care of them and our home while we were out of town.”



About: My life is already so dog friendly because of my senior rescue and occasional foster so I figured why not share the benefits with others. I work from home full time so they do not spend much time alone. One of my dogs was a puppy mill mom for 8.5 years so I have a lot of patience and use positive reinforcement only and I understand the anxiety of dogs in a new place. I give them whatever they need to be happy. I have a park close by that we walk to every day that it is not too hot for them. My home is very clean. I am wide open since I work from home. I'm used to letting pups out frequently since My last three fur babies were senior rescues. I have a fenced in back yard. I don't require them to be in a crate but I can if that's what makes them happy. I live alone with my senior dog so my house is very quiet.

About: I worked at two different holistic pet stores for two years combined, so I have extensive knowledge on pets, pet products and know several emergency vets and pet services in the Chattanooga and Nashville area. I have pet sat since I was 10 years old and done overnight house sitting stays since I was 17. I have had three dogs in my lifetime, and each one lived a long and happy life, including my 6 year old lab who stays with my parents in the Nashville area. I trained all my dogs, and my 6 year old lab has seperation anxiety, so I am aware of the quirks that dogs can have! I also had a cat when I was younger who was diagnosed with diabetes toward the end of her life, so I learned how to administer insulin shots on cats, which I'm sure transfers pretty well to dogs. I have cared for my own senior dogs, sold products to benefit senior dogs, and am fit enough to lift any dog that needs assistance getting into the house or car! I am very knowledgeable, responsible and very easy to get along with! I’m currently unemployed and trying to fill the gap while I look for something full-time. I have a husband that can take care of my animals so I can fully invest in pet-sitting right now! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m the type of person who will cross a street just to pet a cute dog or a stray cat. I’ve never met a pet I didn’t like, or that didn’t like me (which to me is the best testament to my character!)

“Hailee was great! Very responsible and loved on our babies. Also communicated a lot throughout our absence and made me feel very comfortable about leaving our animals behind. Would definitely use her again!”


About: I have raised all of my dogs from puppies, through adulthood and even cared for them until the end. From potting training, basic commands and medication administration, I have done it, and will treat all pets as if they are my own. I also have experience with cats and other furry animals. No reptiles please. I do have a full-time job, but it is flexible. Depending on proximity to Russellville city limits and notice, I can arrange my schedule to care for pets in between work obligations. Even in last minute situations, there will be opportunities where I can fit in care between work obligations. Trust and safety of your pets are my number one priority. I will follow all pet parent's instructions and will ask questions rather than assuming. I do not stray from instructions without consulting with owners. Rest assured, that I can be trusted with the privacy and safety of the belongings of the owners home.

She's very diligent in her ability to care for animals and see to their needs when it may not be so apparent on the surface.

I will trust her to always look after my animals with the utmost scrutiny.”
