“Absolutely the most amazing sitter I've had for Nichols. We travel all over the US and whenever we need a sitter we use Rover. Nichols gets excited when we pullup. Rose is amazing and interacted with Nichols more than I expected. Before we move on to our next stop we will book Rose for a day just because. I can't recommend Rose enough”


“Myla and Jordan were above and beyond in their care for our energetic dog. Their yard is fantastic for play and their dogs were the sweetest playmates for Rennie. We would not hesitate to use them again and we enthusiastically recommend them as pet sitters. As a bonus, Myla took professional level photos that captured our dog’s personality. We are grateful for their kindness.”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with two large pups of my own—a playful Labrador and a gentle Golden Retriever. I’ve grown up with dogs in the home and understand the energy, patience, and love they need at every stage of life. Working from home allows me to offer a flexible schedule with plenty of time for walks, cuddles, playtime, and attentive care throughout the day. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’m here to provide a safe and loving environment that feels just like home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Working from home allows me to give pets regular attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. My flexible schedule means I’m able to accommodate feeding times, medication needs, and any unique routines your pet is used to. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in their own home. I respect your space and follow your pet’s established routine to provide consistency and comfort while you’re away. I’m attentive to their needs and well-being, including administering medications if required. While my own dogs are crate trained at home, I understand every pet is different and will tailor my care to what makes your dog feel safest and most secure. You can count on me to treat your home and pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: We have had at least one dog all our lives. Our care for them has included walks, playing fetch, feeding, bathing & love. Hire me to do the same for your dog! We will share pictures with you of our care for your animal!! We are currently retired & play golf, fish, and manage my plant garden at home. We have plenty of time to walk, feed, bath, and hang out with your dog. We have a fenced in back yard with 2 doggy doors to the inside of our house, so we would love to keep your dog at our house. We both enjoy traveling to play golf & to the beach. Our elderly dog passed away in December and we would love to watch your dog in our home. We love taking walks, playing fetch, and awarding treats for good behavior. Our elderly dog passed away in December so we enjoy loving on other dogs.

“This was my first time leaving my puppy Mabel with a sitter and Anushka made it such an easy and worry-free experience! I got regular photo, video, and text updates on Mabel all day long. And I really appreciated Anushka doing a meet-and-greet before the day so Mabel could meet her and I could ask any questions. Mabel looks forward to future dogsitting days with Anushka!”


About: From my experience in shelter care and veterinary medicine, I am very comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and medical needs. I have dealt with strays and owned pets from every imaginable background, and I believe every animal is worthy of patience, respect, and affection. I’m currently unemployed so I have a very open schedule for watching your dogs and cats! I typically let my own dogs out about 4-5 times a day, and they each have their own feeding schedule that I attend to as needed. I am very flexible right now, and would also be available to do fluids, injections, and other specific medical and behavioral needs (e.g., extra walks, extra play time, etc.). I have a fenced in yard and three friendly dogs, and two sweet cats, to keep your furbaby company. I am comfortable crating dogs and have an extra crate for a small-medium dog. One of my dogs is a senior dog with special needs, so I am perfectly comfortable housing and caring for dogs who have their own special needs. I also have a dog with epilepsy so I am very used to dealing with seizures and the safety precautions that go along with them. These dogs have also never met a stranger, and our home is an overall very welcoming environment to all creatures (I even have a pet spider!).

About: Had to make new account *** Hi, my name is Carson! I have been dog sitting for 10 years now. In high school I worked at Sidle Hill Farms (Dog boarding) in Southhaven, MS. I then gained clients and have been pet sitting from my home and others ever since. I have always dreamed of opening my own dog boarding and then remember I won't even take my own dog to be boarded! That is why I do what I do now, to nurture to love and to calm your pets nerves. I understand that it can be sometimes even more nerve racking for the owner then the pet... I am that owner! My husband Alex and I live in Oakland, Tn with a gorgeous fenced in yard as pictured. I work from home and usually never leave the house unless I go to Walmart up the street. We do not have any children and do not plan on it anytime soon! We are totally content with fur babies for now! A typical day at our home for your pet would include waking up in our bed, breakfast, mornings outside pending on weather (I have an outdoor desk), playing with millions of toys we can't seem to stop buying and of course when Alex comes home a walk around the neighborhood. We can't wait to meet you and your sweet fur baby! Dogs and cats are my whole life I care for them just as children. I love exercise and getting outside so pet care has come as a joy to me not just a chore. Dog walking, bathing, playing, co sleeping, cooking for pets if needed, taking them to groomers ect.. I am available to your pets needs as well as yours!

“She is amazing with Yuki. Yuki has been sleeping through the nights thanks to her playing with him and teaching him about his crate. I will be continuing to use her day camp as Yuki seems to enjoy it.”
