“Nikki and William did a great job checking in with my girls and monitoring one who has some medical issues. They were quick to respond, were personable when we did a meet and greet, and seemed to genuinely care. It's very hard for me to trust anyone with my dogs and I will definitely use them again in the future”


“Denver is a responsible pet caregiver. He was prompt every morning and evening. He kept me up to date on Maizey’s visits. If he is not sure of something he is not afraid to message you for clarification. He took good care of my furbaby and I would definitely use him again.”

“Lori is fabulous! She took EXCELLENT care of our babies. We even forgot to get a preferred treat for our dog to take her pills in and Lori went out of her way to get it so our girl wouldn’t be sad. She went above and beyond! All of our animals (even our most skittish cat) loved her immediately. Her daily updates after every visit made us feel so at ease during our trip. Also normally after a trip our babies are standoffish or SUPER clingy and they’re acting as if we haven’t even been gone. She made their lives feel normal and kept their routine. This was our first time using Rover, and we’re so very pleased with Lori’s care for our babies! We will definitely use her sitting services again.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My golden retriever, Scout, has taught me firsthand that every dog deserves patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love. Whether your pup is energetic and adventure-loving or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to tailor their care to their individual needs. I enjoy daily walks, outdoor time, play sessions, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to be separated from your furry family member, which is why I’m always happy to provide regular updates, photos, videos, and messages so you can have peace of mind throughout the day. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for. I genuinely love dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care that makes your experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, daily exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will be treated like part of the family while in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy under supervision. I also share my home with Scout, my friendly golden retriever, who loves making new friends and gets along wonderfully with people, dogs, cats, and other animals. I have experience caring for pets with a variety of needs, including separation anxiety, senior care, medication administration, and injectable medications. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to provide a calm, cozy, and stress-free environment where your pet is treated like family. Whether your furry friend needs extra attention, playtime, cuddles, or specialized care, you can trust that they will be in caring and capable hands.
“Lee Marie was WONDERFUL! She seemed to really enjoy my two kitties, and they certainly enjoyed having her drop by while I was away. Thank you so much, Lee Marie!”

About: I have been dog sitting for 10 years. Not only will they get a walk or visit but they will also receive a belly rub and play time. I am currently available everyday for the next couple weeks and then I will be available 4 days a week. Once I start work again my days vary from each week. Dog walking is a passion because I love walking and will gladly have a little companion walk beside me. I will take great care of your best friend and make sure he is well exercised. If your dog is learning commands I will uphold them and practice the tricks with him or her. Message me to find out more information and hopefully I see you soon! I have and open schedule during the week Monday through Thursday and would love to fill my time visiting you cat or dog or taking your dog on a walk. Walks are very enjoyable for me, especially with a companion. I ensure that dogs are safe on their walks. They will walk on the side furthest from the road and always remain on leash during walks. I will also make sure that their immediate environment is free from choking hazards.
“Highly recommend! Great communication ! I have a dog that is very afraid of people and she loves her ! Will come up to her and let her pet her! Animals know when to trust someone !”

About: We’ve always had pets since I was little. I love animals and can’t wait to welcome your pet to our home for visiting and a fun little day trip or staycation.

Typically I’m able to accommodate any needs for you and your pet. Feel free to reach out and we’ll discuss needs personally as each pet is different.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! I graduated Austin Peay with a Bachelor’s in Agriculture and concentrated in Veterinary Technology. While I was in school, I worked at a boarding facility and daycare. I worked in an animal hospital for over 3 years until I had my son in November. I stay home with my son now as a full time mom. My veterinary experience allows me to administer medication, provide extraordinary care, and give lots of love! I currently am a stay at home mom to my son who was born in November! Our days are open and willing to help out families with their fur babies! I have 4 dogs of my own- 2 senior small girls, a senior lab (though she doesn’t act like it), and a middle aged silly boy! They are all friendly and welcoming to any animal in our home. I do have an unfenced yard but do have runners and will leash walk all animals in my yard. I am able to crate any animal if necessary.

“Robyn was so delightful to have !!! From the meet and great where she asked all the right questions and got on my dogs level to say hello, to the adorable photos she sent from her check ins . It was our wedding day and she made it possible for my Now husband and I to not stress about our fur babies at home. Thank you so much Robyn , you are a blessing. 💖”

“Anita is my go to woman! She takes extra special care of my cat and sends tons of photos so I know he’s well taken care of while I’m gone ♥️♥️ 10/10 definitely recommend!”


“Gracie was great with our crew of dogs and cats! They took to her immediately and I didn't have to worry about them at all -She sent pics regularly of a happy group! She was able to help us out at the very last minute, we will definitely call on Gracie again!”

“I really can’t say enough about Katherine! We’re really careful with our bunny, Basil, and Katherine always takes such good care of her. We can tell Basil really loves her and feels safe with her, and Katherine has always been so kind, trustworthy, and dependable! If you book with her you’ll have peace of mind. We’re grateful for her!”

About: I’ve taken care of horses, dogs and cats my whole life. I’d be happy to make your pets feel at home while you’re away and love them as my own! I work from home full time so your pet will get all the attention they want! I know my family has had a hard time finding good help with our dogs when we want to go on vacation so I’d like to be there for yours. We want to make sure we don’t mess up any of your training so please let me know if there’s a no furniture rule in your home. Otherwise I like to keep them as cozy and loved as possible.
