Pet Sitting Rossville

“Kathleen has watched our dog twice now and we have such peace of mind while on vacation. She is prompt, respectful of property and our dog loves her. She is fantastic!”

About: Ive spent most of my life caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, growing up with family pets, sitting for friends and family for years, and volunteering with BARCS. Today, I’m the proud parent of my two hound “dawghters,” Willeaux and Scarlett, so high-energy breeds, strong prey drives, and active routines are second nature to me. Because one of my girls is dog-reactive, I am highly experienced in reading canine body language, spotting potential triggers early, and calmly de-escalating high-stress situations during walks. ​I genuinely love working with dogs at every stage of life and of any size; whether providing high-energy exercise for active pups or offering the gentle, patient attention and mobility support that senior dogs need. Additionally, managing daily medication and food allergies for my own dogs has made me extremely diligent about administering medicine on time and strictly monitoring specialty diets. Whether your pet needs high-energy exercise, reactive dog handling, attentive senior care, or precise medical adherence, you can trust they will receive the exact same level of dedicated care I give my own! My schedule offers great flexibility for early morning and evening care! Monday through Friday, I’m available early in the morning before 7:00 AM and again in the afternoon and evening after 3:00 PM; making me a great fit for early morning walks, dinner feedings, or evening drop-in visits. On weekends (Saturday and Sunday), I have full, open availability all day for walks, drop-ins, and extended sitting. Safety, trust, and structured care are my top priorities for every pet I watch. As a hound parent, I am well-accustomed to boisterous personalities and dogs constantly inventing new, creative ways to test boundaries; so practically nothing surprises me, and I’m fully equipped to handle whatever energetic antics your pet brings! I maintain a secure, dog-proofed environment, double-check all gear before stepping outside, and stay fully attentive to our surroundings on walks. ​To ensure your pet receives the absolute best care possible, I always prefer written or texted instructions. Having everything in writing allows me to follow your exact home routine, dietary rules, and safety preferences down to the smallest detail while keeping you updated with frequent photos and check-ins throughout the stay.

“Heather took great care of Evergreen over Labor Day weekend. She stopped by every day to spend some time with her, make sure she was doing well, and take care of everything she needed. I also really appreciated the professionalism of the Rover check-in system. Getting a notification when Heather arrived, along with pictures of Evergreen during each visit, was a wonderful detail and gave me real peace of mind while I was away. It was reassuring to actually see that Evergreen was doing well. Heather was reliable, attentive, and caring, and I would definitely trust her to take care of Evergreen again. Highly recommended!”

“Maria was amazing! She was timely, great communication, and truly loves animals! We didn’t worry once about our dog! (I think he might be mad we came home and he no longer gets to be with Maria!) we will be using Maria again in the future! Thank you for always keeping us in the loop and sending the most adorable pictures of Ripken! ❤️”

About: At this time, I can only accept dogs up to 20 lbs. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and it’s still one of my greatest joys. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to two pups: Pickles, our affectionate long-haired Chihuahua mix who loves everyone—dogs and people alike, Andy, my new Chihuahua mix who has tons of energy and loves playing with other dogs! I'm also mama to Roxy, my 16-year-old toy poodle with a sweet but sassy senior personality, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge in summer of 2026. Over the years, I’ve also cared for many friends’ and family members’ pets, including dogs with different temperaments and medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and giving each dog the attention they deserve. I love going on walks and always enjoy bringing the dogs along for fresh air and exercise. My family enjoys having a house full of furry friends. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like part of the family in our home. I work from home, so when I board dogs, I am available to them all day and night. I also have my summers off, so I can make even more time for the dogs I walk or board in the summer months. In my home, safety and comfort are top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I’ve set up gated areas inside to provide quiet or separate spaces if a dog needs downtime. I have two friendly dogs who enjoy the company of other pups, and my two children are gentle and respectful with animals—they love helping give our furry guests lots of attention and affection. I always take time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet space, I’m here to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

“My favorite part about working with Kelly is how well she communicates, and how thorough she is! From our initial meet and greet to now, she’s been nothing short of wonderful to work with. She was able to get my pup to warm up right away, and she follows anything I’ve laid out for my puppy (what treats he prefers, if he’s on medications, if he can’t be on part of the lawn due to maintenance, etc). Would highly recommend!”

“Bridget is great with our dogs, she takes such good care of them! She was able to help us out on very short notice, and did a wonderful job taking care of all 4 of our dogs, and followed our instructions to the tee. Very quick to respond, and good with communicating during the check ins as well, we got lots of photos so we could see the dogs were doing well. A+ sitter, will be booking again!”

About: I have always found comfort in having animals around me, when I was younger I loved digging in the dirt and looking through the potato bugs. My grandmother always had 2 dogs in the house… labs, Brittany’s, and now two mutts.. She also had parakeets that she let fly around the house before she got hunting dogs. My mom and I lived in apartments and we always had cats, I loved taking the time to learn all of their individual personalities and gain their trust. I have helped with kitten and puppy training for friends and family. I also have reptile experience- I have cared for iguanas and now my son and I have 2 pet geckos named Kenny and Copper. I currently work part time for my fiancés business so I have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets needs! I live in a very nice condo complex with a beautiful trail right behind the building, it perimeters the woods, there’s also a ton of walking trails around me to take your pups on new adventures. I have cleaned homes before, I have been the pet sitter and the house sitter as long as there are instructions I can follow easily and daily. I want to spend my weekends strengthening my bond with animals and providing help to anyone who needs it. My son (Roman) is 6 and very good with all kinds of animals he is very in touch with nature and understands to give plenty of space and time. Providing him with this experience by helping to care for animals and the life around you at such a young age is beautiful to me.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like a cherished member of the family. My hands-on pet care experience includes: Senior Dog Care & Special Needs: Over a decade of caring for senior dogs—including my own 10-year-old Chiweenie—so I’m deeply familiar with gentle handling, administering oral medications, adjusting to slower mobility, and sticking strictly to sensitive dietary routines. Feline Companionship: Experience managing feeding schedules, fresh litter maintenance, playful engagement, and reading cat body language to ensure they feel safe, calm, and respected on their own terms. Daily Walking & Exercise: Dependable, safety-focused dog walking structured around your pup's energy level—from brisk neighborhood walks to relaxed sniffing strolls. Balancing work, family, and daily commitments means my schedule is structured, reliable, and predictable. Because I manage my daily routines with clear flexibility, I can seamlessly integrate high-quality pet care into every morning, afternoon, and evening. Peace of Mind: Complete in-home reliability with clear communication and detailed daily photo updates after every visit, so you always know your fur baby is safe and content.

“Dorian did a great job with my cats. She gave cute updates and made sure their day was as normal as it could be without us! She was really attentive to details and made sure we had gone over all the info needed for feeding and playing.”

“Joselyn was an amazing drop in sitter while we were away for the weekend. She provided photos and message updates at each visit. We felt assured our GSD and cat were being well cared for.”

Samantha M.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats, my whole life. I love all kinds of animals and treat them all like they’re my own. Your pet will be loved just like mine. I work very early in the morning at Costco so I will have plenty of time to take care and love your pets while you’re away. I have a very nice fenced in yard lots of room to run. I have a female lab named Harper, who would love a friend to play with while you’re away.

“Jun was amazing!! Definitely came through for my family and I as we needed to find a sitter so we can go on vacation. Came to visit and meet our pups before we left. He cared for them and stuck to our routine. This was my second time booking Jun. I’ll definitely be using him again.”

About: Size limit 20 pounds (adult size) for fun and safety (no large breed puppies). Your small or tiny dog will have up to 4 right-sized buddies to play with in my big securely-fenced yard. Professionally, I am a masters-prepared nurse and dog trainer who specializes in working with small dogs and puppies. I have worked with dogs professionally for more than 20 years, as a vet technician and dog trainer. There is no substitute for experience! I am very comfortable monitoring and managing dog play to keep everyone safe and happy, as well as managing special needs, giving medication, bathing, clipping nails, etc. Your dog will thrive with expert care from an experienced professional. I work from home and have lots of extra room on my couch for your little one! Your dog is most welcome to join us for couch time, walkies, and supervised outdoor play time in my large securely fenced garden. I am home most of the time, but I do go out to do normal things (the gym, errands, occasional social engagements). Please let me know if your dog is not crate trained. I do separate the dogs for safety when I Ieave the house, but can use gates or an ex-pen instead of a crate if that works better for your little one. I may be able to accommodate a dog that cannot be left home alone, depending on the specifics, please ask if this is the case. Your dog's safety is my first priority, followed by creating a fun and relaxing environment for your little one. You can relax knowing that your dog is in great hands and enjoying their own doggie vacation. I only accept dog-friendly small dogs under 20 pounds, so your little one will have size-appropriate buddies to play with! I manage drop offs and pickups with safety in mind, and I'm very happy to offer pick up and delivery to make your boarding experience as convenient as possible!

“Melody was great with Boh and keeping me updated while I was away! Had open communication with me about my dog and his walks and put me at ease when being away from home. Saved my life with being able to walk him last minute?”

“Michael was great! Charmed my shy cat at the first meeting and kept me fully posted on how she was doing while I was away. He also watered the plant I forgot to ask him to check on, and did some significant cleanup around the litterbox. Phenomenal attention to detail!”
