About: Hello! I’m Brianna, a dedicated pet sitter with a genuine love for animals and a focus on providing top-notch care. I have experience with dogs, cats, and small animals, and I understand the importance of keeping your pets comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s daily feeding, playtime, walks, or just some extra TLC, I approach each pet with the patience and care they deserve. I am also well-organized, reliable, and able to handle any special instructions you may have, ensuring peace of mind for you and your pets. If you’re looking for a compassionate and trustworthy sitter, I’d be thrilled to care for your furry family members. Let’s connect to discuss how I can help make your time away stress-free! Let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like to add, like pet care certifications or certain animals you specialize in! I work from home, so your dog will have full care during their stay. Routined day, down to feeding schedule, walks, bathroom breaks, etc. Followed by lots of TLC ! I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I ensure they have a clean, cozy space, stick to their usual feeding and exercise schedule, and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I’m attentive to any special instructions, such as medications or specific behavioral needs, and keep the environment secure and pet-friendly. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed and happy as possible, just like they would with their family.

Mateo was so wonderful with our dogs! He handled all 4 like a pro, even the little one that is blind and requires insulin injections after each meal. We will definitely be calling him back for all our petsitting needs!

Great to have Alexis checking in on our fur babies and having her mom Becca help was also awesome. We loved getting all the notes, pictures, and videos updates. She also shared some toys as well. Very thoughtful and we never worried about a thing knowing our babies were well taken care of. Will definitely love to work with Alexis and Becca in the future if we are in need of assistance with our fur babies.

About: Greetings, I am Obadina and I am a graduate of AK9i as a patrol Detection K9 handler and trainer. I went to Tennessee State for Animal Science Pre Veterinary Medicine where I learned animal husbandry. I used that experience to go on to be a vet tech as well as a pet bather and trainer. I am current K9 detection dog handler and trainer. I have experience with high drive dogs as well as nervous dogs and puppies. I can work with any and every dog, from fearful to aggressive. I also offer DeShed nail care and bathing services. DeShed services is when I remove the shedding undercoat that comes out usually during the change of seasons. It prevents mats and painful tangles which not only can relive pain and odor, but also keeps them cool during the warm summer months. It’s a very good alternative to shaving, which actually makes them hotter because their fur keeps the sun off of them . Animal Husbandry is my profession as a K9 handler. Your dogs will be treated like assets they are. It’s an hourly routine as animals respond to predictability which lowers stress levels which leads to better boarding experiences. Your asset will be housed in a climate controlled dry lockable indoor kennel run facility with a fenced in secured play area that’s easy to clean and plenty of storage for your pets supplies.

Catecha was Exceptional dog sitter! Leaving your dog with someone can be stressful, but Catecha made the entire experience effortless and reassuring. Catecha communication was excellent, Catecha was dependable, attentive, and clearly have a natural connection with animals. My dog was not only cared for, but genuinely loved on while I was away. Coming home to a happy, calm dog confirmed I made the right choice. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Catecha again and highly recommend Catecha to anyone wanting top-tier care for their pet.

About: Hi! I am on rover because I absolutely love dogs. I have my own fur baby that is absolutely the best. I work full time- banker hours, so I am really looking to watch pets on the weekends and love on them while you are away but I am also out and about all day everyday and can drop in whenever needed, as that is what I do for my own dog. I have grown up with pets my whole life and I have been pet sitting for a long time coming. They are always treated as my own, and I can make sure they do all of the things they love in my care! I can't wait to meet your babies. Thank you! I work full time in real estate, so my schedule is flexible. I am always out and about and can play and walk the pets whenever needed during the work week! I will treat any pet like my own and make sure to follow their schedule as they would when they are at home with you.

About: I was a dog walker before I got hired at a pet store. My first dog was a lab pit mix, my second a Belgian Shepherd, and now I have my own pit mix. I have sat for family members with Chihuahuas and dachshunds. I am great with any size dog and have never met a pet I didn't love. I am familiar with many training tools, dietary needs and distributing medication. I have owned a couple dogs with severe allergies and sensitivities. I also have experience with exotic pets including ferrets. I care for my dog 24/7 including daily walks and a good amount of play time. I work from home as a counselor and create my own schedule so have plenty of time to tend to your pets. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup that loves other dogs. She would be great company or be able to be kept separate depending on your pets needs

Can I leave 15 stars??? Kay is fantastic. We had three of our regular sitters cancel on us for our trip over Thanksgiving. We were about to have to cancel our trip. Kay came in and took such great care of our girls, including our recent rescue that had some behavioral issues. She took great pictures and gave us updates on our babies. She even fed our fish and took in our black Friday packages. I'll be using her every time we have to leave our babies at home.

About: I own a 6 year old 120lbs German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix and happily trained him myself! I am experienced with all sized dogs, but the large breeds are definitely my favorite! I am a supporter of the military and disabled veterans. I moved here from KY and my dog and I enjoy long hikes and camping trips. I am pretty available right now as I do not work full-time. I’d love to care for your pet(s) on normal days or even during emergencies. I try to be as reasonable and negotiable as possible with prices, so please reach out with any questions! In any clients home, my top priorities are respect and safety. Giving me access to your home is a lot of trust, so know that it does not go unseen. I treat anybody’s property and pets as if they were my own. Feel free to record and use Ring, Furbo, etc!

About: I love being active and outdoors, dogs always have a special place in my heart. I am currently a veterinarian assistant and have been working with animals for over 7 years through the military. I have been trained on: first aid, grooming, hygiene, and care for all animals. Working with dogs of all sizes helps me better my skills so I can someday be a vetanarian and open my own hospital. I strongly believe that dogs are men best friend and should be treated with the best care and love. Running around with young and energetic dogs or walking and relaxing with older and relaxed dogs I love them both. And I look forward to having this great opertonity and experience with your dog. I work relief for a vet hospital but my availability is very flexible. I am able to take your pet out twice a day if needed. I have a fenced in back yard and a nice neighborhood where we are able to run and walk with our dogs. So there is plenty of space to play and relax.

About: I have had animals my entire life, so 30+ years of experience. I know that your fur babies are a part of your family. You can count on me to make sure they feel at home. I am currently not working so my availability is usually wide open! I would love to turn petting sitting into a full time gig, as animals have always been a way to my heart. I have a fenced in back yard. I have two extremely friendly medium sized dogs (both are spayed/neutered). I also have 2 playful cats that interact very well with the pups. All of our pets are inside only.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets since I was 7 years old. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny pups to giant breeds. And I’m comfortable handling energetic, strong, and high-maintenance dogs as well. I understand that every pet has their own routine, needs, and quirks, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and dependable presence, I’m happy to help! I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they get the care, attention, and love they deserve. I currently work part time and have a new baby, but I am available Thursday-Sunday anytime before 2pm! If a day is needed outside those days and hours it will depend on if I have child care available! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure each pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I respect your home and your pet’s space, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety and comfort. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away!

About: Hi, I’m Josh, and I offer nothing but the most reliable pet care around, tailored to you and your pets needs! 🐾 I’ve been around animals my whole life and truly believe every pet deserves kindness, routine, and a whole lot of love (and maybe a treat or three). From playful pups to wise old doggos, I’ve cared for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether it’s: Gentle strolls for seniors Play-packed walks for energetic pups Cozy care for anxious or shy pets Basic routine reinforcement …I meet every animal where they’re at. Your pet won’t just be walked or watched, they’ll be nurtured, and treated like family. Plus, I’m a firm believer in consistent communication! You’ll get updates, pics, and plenty of peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I’m home full-time, so your pet’s schedule? It becomes my schedule! Early morning potty breaks, midday zoomies, afternoon sunbathing, or evening snuggles… I’ve got the time and the treats. My days are pretty flexible, so whether your pup needs structure or just someone to hang out with while they nap, I can make it happen. I keep things calm, cozy, and consistent because pets thrive when they feel safe and seen. Basically: if your pet has a routine, I’ll stick to it like peanut butter on a chew toy. 🦴 And if they’re more of a go-with-the-flow type? We’ll create a new groove together. Let me know what makes your fur baby happiest—and I’ll make sure every visit or stay feels like a mini vacation (with belly rubs included, obviously). My home is a peaceful, pet-friendly space where your furry friend will feel right at home. I work from home, full-time, so pets are never left alone for long, and I’m always nearby for cuddles, potty breaks, or the occasional “did someone say treat?” moment. A fenced-in yard is in the works soon (yay!), but in the meantime, we have instant access to Academy Springs Park; just a few steps away, and we’re a short drive from the Chimney Park dog park too. Plus, my quiet, sidewalk-lined neighborhood is perfect for low-stress walks and curious sniffing adventures. I keep my space clean, calm, and cozy. No overwhelming noise, no overcrowding, and definitely no chaos. Whether your pet needs space to lounge, room to play, we’ll create the right setup for them. I care for every animal like they’re my own because honestly, they kinda are while they’re with me. 💛
