Ty did an amazing job! We have quite a house full of dogs and cats and she was able to manage all of them beautifully. All my dogs couldn’t get enough love and attention from her while she was at our home. Ty has a natural gift when it comes to caring for animals and I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone needing a house sitter for your fur babies!

Adel was very kind and attentive with our pets. While pet sitting, he also handled visits from the irrigation team who came to our house. Additionally, he took care of one of my dogs during her first heat. He changed her diaper and remained extremely attentive to her needs. I recommend Adel wholeheartedly—100%!

We are so very thankful for Kayla! This was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know what to expect. Kayla updated us every day with photos and info about the pups, was so flexible when our plans changed, and gave us so much peace with leaving our pups in her care. We will absolutely use her again for our next trip!

Breanna was Fantastic!!! We went on a one week vacation, and she sent us pictures daily of our small Chihuahua, and updates on not only how he was a joy to keep for us but how he was enjoying her being there. The photos that she sent really put us at ease because this was the first trip without him with us!!! I would proudly recommend her with a great review, and to my fellow fur owners?

About: MEMPHIS TN I have many years of pet caring experience, As an 18 year old college student I want to be my skills and abilities to use and help my community! This is great for my future career and I believe it will continue to broaden my abilities and grow the narrow parts of my mind! I live on a ranch with 3 donkeys, 2 dogs, and 13 chickens! I absolutely adore them and I would do anything to see my animals flourish and for me the biggest thing with Dog sitting is trust, I believe that animals were put here to be the best friend you will only ever experience once. I also have had many years of experience with puppy handling, I understand the dedication it takes to raise wonderful babies! I’m here to help! Jackson TN ❗️Now-APRIL 30th❗️ Memphis TN :) Pet care will be based upon my availability as a student athlete I have a lot of obligations/ responsibilities, and a young adult, but for my major this will definitely be a good help and jump start. I am as flexible as possible! I am an extremely trust oriented person. I want the relationship with my clients to be as organic and positive as possible, I am very open to strict instructions and I want to be able to provide the best experience as possible! I try to communicate as much as possible and be courteous to your time!!!

About: I’ve owned different breeds of dogs from pit bulls to chihuahuas. Growing up I was the dog sitter for everyone around. I bathed walked and took care of them mostly from the comfort of their own homes as their owners were away on trips. I am between jobs rn so for the next couple weeks I am completely free any time of day any day for whatever needs my pets may need. My yard is not fenced in so outside time at my house will consist of being walked on a leash for as long as the dogs may need. But otherwise they will be inside.

About: Hi! I'm a pre-vet student with hands on animal care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can fully trust, so I focus on providing attentive, dependable care while making sure your pet feels safe and loved! Whether its walks, playtimes, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as my own. My goal is to give owners peace of mind while creating a fun, calm, and caring experience for their pets. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine and is something I prioritize and plan around. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and some weekends depending on the day. I’m able to accommodate regular visits, drop-ins, walks, and feeding schedules, and I make sure to build my commitments around each pet’s needs. I’m reliable with timing and communication, so pet parents can feel confident their pets are being checked on and cared for as planned. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific behavioral needs or preferences each pet has. I make sure doors are secured, litter boxes are clean, water is fresh, and the space is kept tidy and comfortable. I also focus on building trust with each pet by moving at their pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and giving them gentle attention and reassurance. I treat every home with respect and care, keeping everything clean and leaving things exactly as I found them. My goal is always to ensure both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and confident while I’m there.

Rachel was amazing! All of our animals were very well taken care of. She sent pics of them everyday, and told me how they were doing. She also noticed one of our cats was being bullied when it came to food, which we hadn't noticed. Now that kitty is eating again and loving life. She definitely went above an beyond what was expected! We got a few inches of snow, and she had the driveway all clear for us when we came home. I will absolutely be using her again!!

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals every since I was about 10 years old. Playing with and taking care of dogs is one of my favorite hobbies. I am able to teach them some tricks too, such as shake, sit, lay down, and spin. I’m currently a student at UTK, so I build my schedule with some flexibility. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my busiest days since I have long class hours, but the rest of the week is fairly light and easy to work around. I’m able to adjust my availability as needed to make sure pets are cared for consistently. i’ve had lots of pets in the past. i’m comfortable with watching them, walking them, feeding them, playing with them, giving them medication, cleaning up after them, etc.

About: Growing up in a heavily animal-oriented household, I fell in love with caring for animals of all kinds. With a mother who is a professional groomer and previously a vet tech, I was exposed to dogs and animals of all breeds, temperaments, ages, and more. I have been taking on animal sitting “gigs” for as long as I can remember, and love every animal I meet! I am versed in different medical care and always willing to learn anything to help. I currently work full time with dogs on a daily basis, but love to fit in extra care when I can. I am often available for house visits, overnight visits, and more! Ideally for overnight visits, the pup/pet would be okay for 8 hours at a time due to work, but always willing to be flexible or work around as best I can. I love getting to care for pet’s in their own home, as it adds an extra level of comfort for them. I love learning their routines and following a structure that is familiar to them to make things a little less stressful!

About: I have had beloved pets of all kinds. Wonderful family dogs, cats, pigs, emus, goats, cows, horses, rabbits and a duck. I've spent my whole life seeking out strays or unwanted animals and giving them the love that they so freely give and deserve. I can handle any size or temperament...so far, lol. I am currently not working, so I have 100% availability to take care of your fur babies and keep them one hundred percent safe and happy! I have 50 acres that are not fenced and a 1/2 acre that is fenced and gated. I have a large home with an open living area, hardwood and tile. So no mistake is unfixable! my beloved mastiff passed away at the age of 13 last month, so I currently have no animals. Soon to change. God Bless! Use code “ALAYNB47183” to get $20 off your first booking with me on Rover! This is my only job, so I have 24/7 to devote to these sweet babies. Having grown up on this farm, I love working with animals sunrise to sunset They are allowed all over the house. On furniture and in the beds, if mommy and daddy approve. I keep each pup separate, just to be safe. Use code “ALAYNB47183” to get $20 off your first booking with me on Rover!

About: I’m a college student and a big dog lover. I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and taking care of them, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ve worked in jobs where I had to be responsible and stay calm under pressure, so I’m someone you can trust to handle different situations and follow instructions. I’m patient and pretty good at reading behavior, so I’m comfortable with dogs that are energetic, shy, or need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need. I’m also easy to communicate with and will keep you updated while you’re away. I am available for walks and sitting most days throughout the week. Inquire with me about my schedule! Willing to be flexible and work around the client’s needs! I care for pets in the client’s home and stick closely to their normal routine. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and care, and make sure the pet feels safe and comfortable. I also keep the home clean, respect the space, and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

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!
