“Emma was so great with our animals! She stayed in touch and sent pics all the time! I never had to worry if our animals were being taken care of. From the pictures, they all adored her!”
“These ladies are truly amazing! Went above and beyond for me and my dogs, never once had to worry if they were taken care of. They even went out of their way to celebrate Christmas and get gifts for our boys! Definitely recommend!!”
“Brandy was phenomenal! She sent multiple updates every day along with pictures of our boys while we were gone. She took such great care of our dogs and our home. We will definitely use her again in the future. She is very professional and amazingly sweet. I could tell our boys were happy to have her here while we were away.”
“I cannot recommend Ayla enough; she took such good care of our cat while we were on vacation. I immediately felt at ease during our first meeting. Our cat needed eye drops while we were out of town and Ayla was so attentive to his care. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands. Thank you again, Ayla!”
About: I’ve always loved and have always had animals my whole life. I just love animals and nature overall and most animals love me right back! :) I grew up with my first dog from age 1-5 then I’ve had a bunch of aquatic animals, chickens, bunnies, ducks, turtles, even more dogs and recently had my first cat! I’ve taken care of friends and family pets as well and we always have a great time. I recently moved from Hawaii to TN and I’d love to care for someone else’s fur baby in the meantime. I now have a pet cat that I adopted in Hawaii🥰 He stays in my room for the most part because he still doesn’t rest like venturing around the rest of the house, so he won’t be in the way if I have other animals over. I currently work from home and can give all my time to pet care if need be. I’m used to taking care of animals of all ages and different breeds, so I can cater to pretty much whatever your fur baby will need. ***HAS MILITARY BASE ACCESS*** I live in a townhouse where there’s lots of space for walks & exploring. I have a small fenced in patio that they can play in or we can go for a walk around the neighborhood. There’s a really big open area that I love walking around where no one else really goes so it would be nice for animals to walk around there. Other than that your baby will be inside of the house, there’s a bunch of space so they can pretty much go wherever until it’s time for a walk. I also have space for crates if need be.
“We loved having Caitlin watch our furries! It was awesome to be able to leave our home and them in her care without worrying. One of our dogs gets anxious, one is shy at first, but both warmed up to her as they could tell she was a wonderful human friend. We could barely tell she had been staying at the house were it not for the two happy and well cared for dogs that greeted us when we got home. Can't thank her enough, she is fantastic!”
“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. 🙏🏾”
“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.”
“I can't say enough good things about Lilia. She dog/house sat for 8 days and she was excellent. She was very communicative, active with the dogs and sent lots of great photos. She kept me updated throughout the day so I never had to be worried about my pups. She went over and above my expectations. Highly recommend!!”
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
About: I worked at a grooming place washing dogs and getting to know more about animals and how to handle them and I also have always had dogs in my life and animals in general. I do not work a job at the moment but I am about to go to college to be a vet tech and I just want a job that is animal related but is flexible with me and my hours I care because I would want someone to care about my animals the way I do. I truly feel like animals are the most precious thing to ever be on this earth and won’t never do wrong to hurt or harm any animal.
About: Ive taken care of dogs for several years now! I enjoy walking dogs, dog sitting, or even just hanging out with your fur baby. I currently am working part time as a registered nurse, while also in school for my Masters of Nursing for my family nurse practitioner, so I am home often and able to help with dogs as needed. I am also proficient at pet training including commands, and potty training. I am home often as I am in school full-time, but I also work part time and get off of work around 1pm. My weekends are free as I am able to pet sit, walk, or board on weekends. I have a fenced in yard, open concept home that enables a great environment for dogs to enjoy running around and getting lots of love. I also have a petite golden doodle who gets along with all dogs as well.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Started with an older Cocker Spaniel, then got to grow up with a Beagle from puppy til old age. Now I have a Min Pin and the family I live with have 2 Boarder Collies and a Basset Hound. All my life I’ve taken on the responsibility or caring for, feeding, cleaning up after and walking dogs. Being with them makes me happy and I couldn’t imagine a life without them. I recently completed my Commercial Multi Engine flight rating and have been working on building up my hours for the airlines. My current schedule is pretty easy going. My mornings and afternoons are completely free Monday-Sunday. On Monday through Friday I currently work 6pm-10pm so can manage dinner and walk around 5pm pretty reliably. With my own pets, I typically start the day around 6:30 to let them out, feed them breakfast, and take them on a morning walk before it gets too hot out. After our morning ritual I will typically head out for a quick hour flight and an hour at the gym before returning home to let them out again. I’ll typically give them something to chew on while I’m gone then proceed for our late afternoon walk leading into dinner around 4:30. Finally when I get home from work I’ll let them out one last time before bed. Then repeat the cycle all over again the next day! I can be a bit of a worried father when it comes to my own dog. If something feels wrong or out of the ordinary, I’m not hesitant to get an experts opinion on the matter. I am great with keeping to a schedule for feeding time, walks and potty breaks. As well as giving every dog no matter the size equal amounts of love!

Andrew F.
“Andrew is an outstanding dog watcher/walker! Growing up with and airline pilot as a dad, my family took frequent trips out of town and the 1 time we took our dogs to a doggie hotel, they came back stressed the heck out. We knew we had to find an alternate option. Fortunately, my best bud Andrew was around and was able to take care of them! He did an amazing job! Made sure to feed each one their appropriate portions, cater to their dietary needs, and walked them 2-3 times a day! My own dog Nugget gets awful separation anxiety when I leave, so luckily Andrew was even willing to stay the night to keep little Nugget calm and have someone to cuddle up with. My dogs like him so much, that whenever Andrew would come over, they would drop everything and go hang out with him since they knew it was time to play and get all their energy out. Needless to say, Andrew is a top notch dog sitter and I believe he would do a phenomenal job”
Nathaniel A.
“Nathaniel was great. He updated us with videos each day and let us know how how our pup did. She has anxiety in new spaces so having Nathaniel stay in our space was great.”
